have carefully refratned from making
any attack on the character Of Mr.. Dunn
or any other candidate and cannot be
justly accused Of any mud singing what
soever, but a candidates record, political
associates and attitude on public ques-
ttons are fit subjects for discussion In a
contest like the present one.
I have not hesitated to say that the
republican party in this state has been
one Of principle. In 1902 it took an un-
equivocal position on the merger question.
and with clear voice Endorsed the action
of President Roosevelt and Governor Van

Northern Securities company to answer to
the charge that 1t was guilty Of fragrant
violation of both the state and federal
statutes. The charge that it had violated
the federal law stands substantiated. l
believe that the party meant precisely
what 1t said upon this subject, and that
1t was not trifiing with the people at that
time. I believe that It will not, at the
coming convention, repudiate It's platform
or stultify itself when nominating Its can
didate for governor II it does, Its In
doris ement of President Roosevelt and
Governor Van SAINT was mere ceremony
to be disavowed at the first opportunity 1t
demanded by the candidate.
The Present Issue.
The issue now before the party is not
whether one of two or more men shall be
selected, but shall the party be consist<
ent or shall it go into the campaign with
a Reputation Of the doctrine upon which

which was upheld by the ajority for Van
SAINT of more than sixty Thousand?
Those who have taken s. any interest
whatever in this subject cannot have
reached any other conclusion than thai
the fight against these interests has just
commenced. Not only Minnesota, but the
entire country is involved in a great
struggle to determine whether such in.

Weak and unhealthy kidneys are responsible
for many kinds Of diseases, and IL permitted to
continue much suffering and fatal results are
sure to follow. Kidney trouble irritates the
nerves, makes you dizzy, restless, sleepless and
irritable. Makes you pass water often during
the day and obliges you to get up many times
during the night. Unhealthy kidneys cause
rheumatism, gravel, catarrh Of the bladder,
pain or dull ache in the back, joints and mus
cles; make your head ache and back ache,
cause indigestion, stomach and liver trouble,
you get sallow, yellow complexion; make you
feel as though you had heart trouble; you may
have plenty Of ambition, but strength; get
weak and waste away.

REAL HOME OF BLUEGRASS.

the Wabash without feed for their
horses. Gen. Harrison had two cribs
OF corn at Terre Haute, and persuad-
ed the men to go on. AS they came
on with hungry horses and scant feed
they found the ground covered with
bluegrass
Six miles west of Newport, on the
Collect farm, was found a bountiful
supply of bluegrass. Some places in
the bottom it was growing three feet
high, and such feed had never been
heard of by the Kentucky soldier. At
State Line City more bluegrass was
found, and from there to Tippecanoe
the whole line of marc. was covered
with bluegrass.
The seed was carried back to Ken
lucky and sown there, but they could
not make it thrive alone in the warm
soil, and it had To be sown with oats

How to Eradicate Dandelion..

Never permit them TO go to seed, and
cut the crowns out of the grass with
stiff knife. This sounds very tedious,
but there is really nothing else to be
done. Even if all the tap root is no&
removed, the plant is much weakened
by its decapitation, and if the grass Is
kept short the dandelion IS much en-
couraged. OF course the lawn will be
constantly reseeded from adjoining
places, so eternal vigilance is required

My eyes were open, and 1 could see
what was happening, but 1 was I'M
able to move hand or foot, or to show
that life had not yet left my body.
Imagine my horror, then, when.
after being left for "a hours. I was
taken from bed and rolled on the
moor. Pins and needles were stuck
In my body in order to see whether
blood would flow. Fortunately 1 could
feel no bodily pain, but the strain on
my mind was terrible.
After this every one gave me ND

Oh, the terror of that moment!
Worse, however, was to come. for
