That fifth column the editorial page of
the st. Paul Globe that was 'erstwhile the me-
dium for the collection of editorial expressions

Judge Parker has been notified of his
nomination, and in his speech of acceptance
takes occasion to refer to the trust problem as
one in which the administrative officers of the
country have failed to perform their duty.
Judge Parker was very careful not to tread on
the toes of any trust that Roosevelt has prose-
cuted, and was also careful not to advocate "a
campaign against the trusts

A Continual strain.

Many men and women are constantly
subjected to what they commonly term
"a continual strainn because OF some
financial or family trouble. 1t wears
and distresses them both mentally and
physically, affecting their nerves badly
and bringing on liver and kidney all
ments, with the attendant evils OF
constipation, loss OF appetite, sleepless-
ness, low vitality and dependency.
They cannot, as rule, get rid OF this
continual strain" but they can remedy
its misunderstanding effects by taking
frequent doses Of Green's August
Flower. 1t tones up the liver, stimu-
lates the kidneys, insures healthy
bodily functions, gives vim and spirit to
ones whole being, and eventually dis
pels the physical or mental distress
caused by that continual strain" Trial

New York, Sept 22.--That there Is
y strong drift toward Alton b. Parker
Oh the part Of the independent Ger
mans of the city. who voted almost
solidly for Mckinley in 1896 and 1900
Ii indicated by the result of a canvas
made Of the members of the Lieder'
kranz club.
The membership Of this club u
made up OF substantial German-Amer
leans, conservative In all things and
with no cast-iron political prejndices
Or affiliations. They are generally re
garded as the highest type OF the In
dependent voter.
The independent German vote 10
the coming election is looked upon az
most important factor. In his
speech at the recent banquet Of Dem
ocratic editors at the Waldorf-Astoria
Col. Henry Wattsrson said.
"The independent vote will decide
the result. In the FIVE debatable
states Of New York, New Jersey and
Connecticut In the East, and Indiana
ana wisconsin In the West there are
on rough estimate million Of these
independent voters. Half a million
of them are Germans"
Members OF the Liederkranz were
asked Ii state for whom they voted m
1900 and for whom they shall vote
next November. Three Of these fair
ed to answer.
or the "a who replied. 13 will vote
for Roosevelt and II for Parker.
The IL who declared for Roosevelt
all voted for Mckinley In 1900. Of
the IL who declared for Parker only
four voted for Bryan In 1900.
Therefore. out OF the "a only one
sixth of 16 % per cent. voted for
Bryan, the remaining SO 1-3 per cent
going to Mckinley.
OF this s3 1-3 per cent OF Repubi-
can votes in 1900. Roosevelt retains
less than two-thirds, while Parker
makes a clean gain of over one-thirdi
at the same time retaining all Of the
votes given to Bryan.
II Col Watterson's figures OF 500.-
900 independent German voters in
the five states named are correct, and
the change In the sentiments OF Ger
man voters are indicated by the can
vass OF the Liederkranz club mem
bers Is an accurate indication for the
whole 100000. the gain to Judge Par
ker reached formidable proportions.
On the basis OF the way the Lieder-
kranz men voted in 1900. one-sixth for
Bryan and five-sixths for Mckinley,
Bryan got 81, 300 of the 100000 indie
pendent German vote in the five
states, while Mckinley received 4l6,-
700.
