EDITORIAL NOTES.

The Democratic solid south will be
offset this year by Republican solid
West.
Col. Bryan says that Hamlet is his
favorite play, Judge Parker probably
fears that the grave digger is the
Colonel's favorite character in the
play.
After all, the Republican party S
chief source of strength lies in the fact
that is principles appeal to the rugged
common sense of the American people.
The Democrats of the West are more
interested in again securing control of
the party, in 1908, than they are in what
will happen to Parker and Belmont in
1904.
The Republican party stands pledged
to the policy of protecting American
Industries. The Democratic party OPP
poses this policy without offering any
thing in Place of it.
Even a casual reading of the figures
of Americas growing export trade will
cure any pessimism on the part of
those who question the peTmanency of
prosperity under Republican policies.
The trouble with the Democratic can
dldate tol the Presidency seems to be
that he is too radical for the conserva-
tive Democrats and too conservative
for the radicals, and between them
there is still breach which divides
them irreconcilably.
Tie Brooklyn Eagle has been taken
to task for writing too longed itorials,
and pleads in extenuation that as it is
an afternoon paper it has not time to
make its editorials as short as they
ought to be" 1t then calls attention to
what it says is the longest editorial of
modern times, which appeared in the
New York World Of August 23d, and
occupied over eleven columns. 1t was

legged wrong doings, but it is safe to say
that few people will read it.
Hon. Thomas E. Watson of Georgia,
the Presidential nominee of the Popu-
lists, in his speech at Cooper Union,
New York, accepting the nomination
said among other things: cit seems to
me to be the most amazing piece of
etfrontery for the Democratic party to
go before the American people and pro-
claim that for eight years they nave
been wrong and the Republicans have
been right, and at the same time de-
mand that the crowd which has been
wrong shall be put in the places of
those who have been right. If
the gold standard be right, as both the
old parties now say it is, the people of
the country will give the credit and the
support to the men who were brave
enough to pioneer its way, fight its bat
tie and win its triumph

They are getting title to this land with

They are getting title to this land with
out living upon it for day or an hour,
since the laws do not require them to
do so. While the richest agricultural
lands are being rapidly acquired for
speculation and monopoly under one
law, the splendid forests which clothe
the western mountains are being con-
solidated into great holdings, under an
other law, to be held against the needs
of coming generations. These things
are nothing less than crime against
the children of the United States.
And the lesson taught by the brown
robed Franciscan monks of San Luis
Rey was one of helpfulness and self
dependence, but not greed and rapa-
city. Will their successor, the United
States, teach the same lesson to her
children or will she carelessly allow
the interloper to wrongfully profit at
their expense? Congress has been ask
ed to take some action on the land laws
of the United States. 1t has failed or
refused thus far to do so. Ii it recog-
nizes public sentiment, it must no long
er evade this issue OF Importance to
the West and to the United States.

Life Burden Because Her Blood was out
of Order. Mrs. Smith Receivers the Joy of
Living When the State of her Blood is Cor
rected-Is Ruddy and Hearty Today.
According to the verdict of the doctors
Mrs. Clara 0. Smith had but few weeks
of life left to her. For four years she had
been growing paler and thinner, and it was
known that her case had been pronounced
beyond the reach of medical skill. Then d
transformation occurred and the woman
who had spent most of her time in bed and
finally had become 50 weak that she could
not cross the floor, dismissed her nurse, re-
sumed her Homework, and gradually took
on flesh until she reached a weight of 1SS
pounds.
The astonishment of her acquaintance
was boundless and, as the facts became
known, the interest in the story of her re-
covery extended. To reporter who visited
her home to learn the circumstances, Mrs
Smith gave the following details:
"My trouble began nearly four years ago
with hemorrhages OF the bowels. Week in
and week out these were repeated and there
came white as snow. Ny heart beat so
that could not go up stairs, and later not
even the length Of the floor. My head kept
throbbing all the time just below my ears,
and my limbs swelled and would hardly
carry my body Finally became so weak
that had to lie down all the time.
"My physicians regarded my case as in
durable. l was told that there was no pos
sible chance for me and even that | could
not last for more than few weeks. 1t was
then, in October of last year, that my SON
ln-law saw an advertisement of DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills and got some for me.
They brought me the first relief l had ex-
perienced in all my sickness. l could see a
change for the better within the first week
after began to use them. The pain in my
head stopped almost at once and has never
returned since. My strength began to come
back, my lips and cheeks grew red again,
entirely well and able to do f6e work Of
family Of three. The change is all due to
DR.. Williams Pink Pills and | know that
l cannot be too grateful"
Mrs. Smith. who lives at Sc Bowers street,
Nashua, n H., owed all her troubles to de-
ficient and impoverished blood. Nine
tenthS of the physical misery suffered by
women springs from this source alone. AS
long as the blood remains scanty or impure
the tissues of the body are starved and
every organ fails to do its work properly.
Death must result if relief is not found.
Multitudes of such cases, some of them de-
clared hopeless, have been promptly and
thoroughly cured by DR.. Williams Pink
Pills, and women who were pale, nervous,
respondent and daily fading out of life
have been changed into the most active and
robust of their sex.
For all an@mic states, that is in all cases
of weakness caused by lack of blood, and
tor a.! diseases sspringing from perverted
Pills are the greatest known remedy. They
make new blood and give new life to the
feeblest. They are sold by all druggists
throughout the world.

The Whip-poor-will.

The sun has set behind yon silver cloud
That forms a shining curtain DER the
west;
The feathered songster, homeward wings
his way
To join his mate within the hidden nest.
All silent falls the night on hill and plain,
No sound is there, the silence deep to
break;
Save when the frog, his cultural note sends
forth
From out the reedy margin Of the lake.
IT'S then the listener, as he stands alone,
Can hear from out the grove upon the hill
A note whose sadness reaches to his heart,
The plaintive night song of the whip
pOOr-will.
Full Oft I've stood beside the dusty road,
just where it dips to cross the rustic
bridge;
And heard him send his evening song
From out the woodland, on the neighbour
ing ridge.
His note, would bring sadness and a pain
My heart and soul with sorrow deep to
fill;
And cause my feet to slowly turn away,
And leave behind the plaintive whip
pOOr-will.
