SEES SAFETY IN
REPUBLICANISM
Senator Fairbanks Writes Able
Letter Of Acceptance on
Party's Policy.

Indianapolis, Sept. Ex-senator
Charles Warren Fairbanks, republican
nominee for the vice presidency, in his
letter of acceptance, addressed to Elihu
Root, chairman of the notification COM
mlttee, says:
made when you formally notified me of
my nomination for vice president, I
avail myself of this opportunity to sub
nit to you and thru you to my fellow
citizens, some further views with re-
spect to the questions in issue before
the, people.
"'The principles which are so frankly
and felicitously expressed in the plat
form: adopted by the republican ma
tiOnal convention meet with my heart
lest approval.
"The convention did well in it's
hearty commentator of the administers
ton of President Roosevelt. This is
We accept the issue with confidence.
The president assumed the RESPONSE
bilities of chief executive with pledge
to carry out the policy Of his beloved
and lamented predecessor. He kept
the cabinet Of President Mckinley,
composed of statesmen of eminent
ability, in whom the country placed
entire confidence. He carried forward
the uncompleted work faithfully and
successfully.
Wisdom In Foreign Policy.
1.-THE foreign policy Of the admins
tratiOn has been conservative, Just and
firm, and has made for the advancement
Of peace. Time and events have given
us a larger place in international affairs
While we have enlarged our foreign
commerce, we have increased our pres
tigo abroad, not with the sword but
with the peaceful agency of enlightened
diplomacy.
"Thirty treaties have been concluded
and proclaimed and stand to the credit
of the administration. Some of these
are of far-reaching Importance.
I'VE favor the adjustment of inter
national disagreements by an appeal to
reason, rather than to arms. The ad-
ministration of President Mckinley did
we'll to aid in the creation of the Hague
tribunal, and President Roosevelt is en-
titled to great credit, for being the first
to invoke it's jurisdiction in the settle
ment of the Plus fund cases.
Attitude Toward Tariff.
"The convention wisely declared in
favor of protection which guards and
develops our industries, and that the
measure of protection should always at
least equal the difference in the cost of
production at home and abroad
'The democratic convention which
lately assembled at ST. Louis denounced

prises as in preventing it's use in con-
travention Of the public interests.
Sound Money a Necessity.
clared it to be the duty Of the republi-
can party to uphold the gold stand
ard. When democratic candidates
cannot hope to win preferment in ma
tional convention without industriously
concealing their monetary views and
when democratic national and state con-
ventions dare not declare their faith
in the virtue of the gold standard, the
hour has not arrived when the forces
of sound money should disband and
leave the field.
Sound money is so vital to our wei
fare, so important to our industrial de-
velopment, that we should let it's open
enemies or negative friends know that
we abate nothing of our determination
to uphold and defend it.
President s Course in Panama.
=" The president g course in Panama
merits the most generous approval. He
dealt with delicate and difficult sit
uation clearly within our national rights
in such a way as to make possible the
early completion of an isthmian canal
which has long been demanded in the
interest of our commerce and national
defense. The president in due time ap-
pointed a commission composed of emf
nent engineers and men Of practical ex-
perience to undertake the work of con-
structing the canal as speedily as prac-
ticable. There is no longer any doubt
or uncertainty as to the enterprise. Its
completion is now an assured fact, and
it will stand as one of the memorable
achievements of the new century.

Peruna is known from the Atlantic to
the Pacific. Letters of congratulation
and commendation testifying to the
merits of Peruna as a catarrh remedy
are pouring in from every State in II
Union. DIR. Hartman is receiving hun
dreds of such letters daily. All classes
write these letters, from the highest to
the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor arti-
san, the clerk, the editor, the statesman,
the preacher-all agree that Peruna is
the catarrh remedy of the age. The
stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh
as their greatest enemy, are especially
enthusiastic in their praise and testi-
mony.
Any man who wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh. Ca
tarrh is wellnigh universal; almost ON
nipresent. Peruna is the only absolute
safeguard known. A.cold is the be
ginning of catarrh. To prevent colds
to cure colds, is to cheat catarrh out of
it's victims. Peruna not only cures ca
tarrh, but ~preventsit. Every household
should be supplied with this great rem
edy for coughs, colds and so forth.

admirer of Peruna. He keeps it con-

Prosperity at Ripley.

As evidence of the substantial
prosperity which Ripley is enjoy
ing, the holiday trade was enormous.
All branches of business were re-
warded with increased sales ove last
year. Although there were import
ed 1894 jugs and 80 boxes Of booze
to the town during the holidays,
there were comparatively few DRINKS
reported and hardly a half dozen ar
rests. Those who displayed bad
taste in tanking up were principally
negroes and two shooting scrapes
among the colored population with
no fatal results was the consequence.
The merchants are all in excellent
shape for the advent of the new
year and no doubt the town will
continue to enjoy greater prosperity
in the future. Drunkenness has
greatly decreased since the town
went "dry," and other business has
increased. Many new residences
have been erected during the year,
as well as several brick business
houses, two new gins, one big roller
mill, spoke factory and other in
dustries have sprung up to benefit
Ripley. Withal, the past year has
been one of great prosperity, not
withstanding the short crop, and the
future is looked forward to with
much anticipation for greater
strides by the people.

LITTLE TALES OF KINGS.

King Alfonso is giving his subjects
lessons in agriculture.
Since his throat trouble. Emperor Will
liam has changed his voice, modulating
1t so as to reduce the pressure on the
vocal chords. He now speaks in a some
what lower pitch, his throat specialists
having explained to him the theory Of
voice production, which he has prac-
ticed with considerable success.
Kink Edward made a fresh manifesto
ton of his tact and kindness recently
by sending a letter inquiring as to the
condition of a member OF parliament
who had undergone an operation for
appendicitis. The king said that as
he had been subjected to a severe opera
ton for the same malady, he had a fell
low feeling for all who had to endure
similar suffering. His act was the more
noteworthy from the fact that the mem
Der is a prominent representative of a
party which does o look with favor
on kings orr on an aristocracy.
Victor Emmanuel III. of Italy is one
of the least kingly among European
rulers. In person homely, awkward in
manner, and exceedingly shy in COM
pany, he thoroughly detests the dreary
tomfoolery of court life, though he 10y
ally refrains from Sinking any of the
duties falling to his position. He has
no fondness for appearing in military
uniforms, nor does he imagine that he
is an able general simply because on oc-
:asion he has to wear the habiliments
of a soldier. His majesty is very well
read in science and literature, and is
never SO contented as when in the COM
pany of his wife. His court is the most
democratic in Europe.
