With view to clearing away all fric-
ton between the United States and
Panama, the President has directed the
Secretary of War 10 proceed to the
isthmus as soon as possible, there to con-
fer with the President and other officials
of the new republic and to give them
every assurance that this country contem-
plates no act which can result in injury
TO Panama and that, not only will the
United States con6ne its exercise of
sovereignty over the canal strip to the
rights conveyed by the Panama treaty but
it will go farther and act with the utmost
of Panama and her welfare
in every step which it seems advisable to
take. 1t is probable that Secretary Taft
will sail for the isthmus about November
I'd, and will remain there about two
weeks

The Philadelphia Ledger takes the fol.
lowing political glance at Maryland
Because Maryland has been almost
conceded to the democrats, for the rea-
son that so many negroes have been dis
franchised, but little attention has been
paid to the State. Senator German de-
clares Maryland is riveted to Parker and
Davis. The republicans have been in
vestigating matters, and claim as election
day approaches conservative business
men express the fear that hard times may
follow revision of the tariff that they
are beginning to realize the important
part played by the Bryan element in the
democratic party, and fear if Judge Park
err is elected the Bryanites in Congress
will perform certain things, and that in
the event of democratic success there
would be constant apprehension that
there might be changes in financial laws.
The democratic leaders deny that any
change of sentiment has taken place
among the financial interests of the city
and State, and still retain confidence that
Maryland will give Parker from 5000 to
1000 majority"

Cause of Lockjaw.

Lockjaw, or tetanus, is caused by a
bacillus or germ which exists beautifully
in street dirt. It is inactive so long as
exposed to the air, but when carried
beneath the skin, as in the wounds caused
by percussion caps or by rusty nails, and
when the air is excluded the germ is
reused to activity and produces the most
virulent poison known. These germs
may be destroyed and all danger of lock-
jaw avoided by applying Chamberlain's
Pain Balm freely as soon as the injury is
received. Pain Balm is an antiseptic
and causes cuts, bruises and like injuries
to heal without maturation and in one
third of the time required by the usual
treatment. 1t is for sale by Eli T.
Reynolds.

chamberIain's Cough Remedy.

No one who is acquainted with its good
qualities can be surprised at the great
popularity of Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy. 1t not only cures colds and grip
efectually and permanently, but prevents
these diseases from resulting in pneu.
monia. 1t is also certain cure for Group.
Whooping cough is not dangerous when
this remedy is given. 1t contains no
opium or other harmful substance and
may be given as confidently to baby as
an adult. 1t is also pleasant to take.
When all of these facts are taken into
consideration it is not surprising that
people in foreign lands. as we'll as at
home, esteem this remedy very highly
aud very few are willing to take any
other after having once used it. For sale

man to that of the corporation. Men
organize corporation because as MEM
Der of such they are not liable in law for

1t is stated that the employees of the B.
& o. railroad are receiving circulars in
favor of Roosevelt, emanating from the
company's Office, and which are regarded
rather as instructions than as advice. If
SO, this is not the first time the B. & O..
has tried to dictate to its workmen in
political matters and serves to show the
influence of the large corporations in
politics. During the campaign of 1900
the company issued an order forbidding
its employees to participate actively in
politics by accepting nominations or pre-
siding or speaking at political meetings.
"The good of the service" was the
euphemistic explanation.

longer lack of funds at the disposal of
the Democratic National Committee
There is said to be plenty of money in
sight to conduct the campaign on proper
lines to the close, and to meet every
legitimate expense without any cramping
and enable the committee to conduct a
whirlwind campaign in all the debatable
States during the remainder of the
campaign. In this connection the fights
that will attract most attention in the
presidential canvass from now on, apart
from New York, are those in Indiana
and West Virginia. The democrats are
doing some of their hardest work in these
two States, and just as the republicans
had begun to shout over the bright out
look in the latter State for Roosevelt,
Bryan was sent through it on one of his
rapid fire speech-making tours that has
upset them again. After leaving West
Virginia Bryan will put some life in the
Illinois democrats by stumping tour.

The populist plan.

The populist plan is that the very poor,
that the men and women who toll cease
lessly and can only obtain enough to sus-
tain themselves and their families, should
pay no taxes. That was the idea of
all the great men of the earlier times.
They, therefore, in nearly all the states,
exempted from taxation a certain amount
of household goods, COW, team. the
tools of a trade, etc. In those days we
had men in charge of the government
who had hearts as we'll as brains. Now
the government has passed over into the
hands of the sons of Wall street, and the
whole burden of taxes is taken from the
rich and placed upon the poor A tariff
tax is tax upon consumption. You pay
the tax in the increase put upon the price
of everything that you buy. To remedy
this evil the populists proposed an income
tax, forced it through Congress, and
court, in the interest of the rich, pro-
uounced it unconstitutional, although
the same court for eighty years, had
repeatedly declared it good, sound law

Where Women Vote.

In four states-Wyoming, Colorado,
Utah and .Idaho-women possess the right
to vote on equal terms with men at all
elections. Either full or partial suffrage
for women exists in twenty-one states. In
eighteen states women possess school
suffrage. In Kansas they have munic-
ipal and school suffrage. Montana and
Iowa permit them to vote on the issuance
of municipal bonds. In 1898 Louisiana
granted them the privilege of voting upon
questions relating to public expenditures
With this exception the southern states
have been slow in advancing the woman
suffrage cause. The women of Wyoming,
Colorado, Utah and Idaho vote for presi-
dental electors.

The city of Newark, N. j., is consid-
ering a plan-emanating from some
philanthropic people-to employ boys
instead of men to sweep the streets. The
lads are not to have an easy task, but will
have regular hours in which to do the
work. In other words they are to take
the place of men who. would otherwise be
employed, and, of course, are, to work for
lower wages-and this at a time when
there are great number of men begging
for chance to work and provide for their
families, in Newark as everywhere else.

The extraordinary precautions taken
TO protect President Roosevelt in travel
ing between Washington and Oyster Bay,
is revelation to the people of this re-
public, and would seem to indicate a
phase of dangerous political restlessness
which has grown up in this country, to
be likeued only to those existing in the
monarchies of the Old World. When he
started back to the Capital from his sum-
mer cottage the New York police would
not guarantee his safe passage through
the city and he was transferred from
Oyster Bay to Jersey City in government
revenue cutter. Ten detectives surround
ed him on his way from his house to the
waters edge, two stayed with him while
on the vessel, and the others FASTENED by
rail to Jersey City to guard the landing
in advance. There, these detectives were
reinforced by whole battalion of Jersey
police. The president was not allowed to
walk from the pier to the special cara
distance of less than two blocks-but was
put in carriage with a detective on the
seat with the driver and six more in front,
on each side and behind. Besides that
policemen were strung all along in line
on each side of the way. Roosevelt is
not a coward and when he submits to
such extraordinary precautions as that,
he must be convinced that anarchy is on
the verge Of breaking out at any moment.

YELLOWSTONE WELL REPRE-.
sENTED At STATE FAIR.
HAS ONLY TOBACCO SHOWN
Also Stands Alone As Exhibitor Of
Honey-other Articses the
Very Best.

Yellowstone county's exhibit 1t the
state fair, according to all who have
seer it, is one of the best-in the
opinion of some of the very best
and is constantly surrounded by
crowds Of admirers. 1t was the first
to be finished. Not only are the diff
ferent articles shown a surprise to
all, but the manner of the exhibits
arrangement is artistic and pleasing
and intended to show to the greatest
advantage.
AS last. year, c. L. Gardner is in
charge and also arranged the display.
Carrots, squashes, pumpkins, all OF
monster size, water melons weighing
40 pounds, and every other variety OF
vegetables that can be raised in this
altitude and latitude are shown in
generous %profusion, all of the highest
grade. But while going in strong for
products Of the garden, the products
of the field and pasture are not neg
lected. There are wheat, oats, bar
icy and forage plants almost without
number. l. D. O'Donnell alone ex-
hibits "a varieties Of the latter. Fruit,
too, OF as good quality as was ever
grown anywhere, is shown, the county
being one of the very few that can
make any exhibit of peaches. Another
rarity for this region is tobacco, OF
which a number Of plants are dis
played that have attained their full
! growth.
Yellowstone has the distinction OF
being the only county represented
which makes a showing of honey. G.
NJ. Chaffee, whose apiary is about four
miles from this city, has a display
that is the wonder of all. Those COM
petent to pass judgment in such mat
tiers declare that it would be a credit
to any of the "honey states" The
honey is shown in the comb, in bot
ties, strained and in granulated form.
Besides the honey, Mr.. Chaffee makes
a creditable exhibition of wax, pre-
pared for every use to which that ar
ticle is applicable.
