First Appearance of DandruT a Fore
runner of Future BaIdness

runner of Future Badness.
That such is the case has been con-
clusively proven by scientific research.
Prof Unna, the noted European skin
specialist, declares that dandruff is the
burrowed-up cuticle of the scalp, caused
by parasites destroying the vitality in
the hair bulb. The hair becomes lifeless,
and, in time, falls out. This can be pres
vented
Newbro's Herpicide kills this dandruff
germ, and restores the hair to its natural
softness and abundancy.
Herpicide is now used by thousands of
people-alI satisfied that it is the most
wonderful hair preparation on the mar
ket to-day.

popular young men of this city decid-
ed to walk up to Nothoroughfare can
on for exercise.
While climbing over the hills and
cliffs in the vicinity of the canon they
came to a ledge about twelve or fifteen
feet high, which was right over a
stream which they wished to reach.
1t was long round about route to get
to this stream by going rouni, so Mr..
Jones ventured TO make the leap. BE
selected !. soft looking spot and jumped.
The ground where he struck proved to
be as hard as rock. He didn't supDose
the ledge was SO high and he turned
his left ankle causing dangerous and
very painful sprain.
The two gentlemen who accompan
led him soon reached his side and
succeeded IN making him temporarily
comfortable. They then secured two
horses from man whom they saw on
the hillside above them.
Mr. Jones suffered great deal on
the way TO tho city. being
nearly five hours without medical at
tendance. They reached home after
dark last night.
DR.. Abbott was called and made Mr..
Jones as comfortable as possible.

deposits of serpentine marble, extend
ing distance of several hundred yards
and equal to any other product in
the state. Development work on
small scale was begun last week, but
owing to the high altitude and deep
snow drifts little can be accomplished
at this time. Several weeks ago spec
linens of the marble were placed N
exhibition at the Salida Board of Trade
rooms and all who have seen them
declare the marble the most beautiful
to be found in the state.
The marble consists of twelve beau
tiful varieties and lies in we'll defined
strata of uniform thickness. The
lodges lie parallel to each other and
extend in northern and southern dir
ection The marble is absolutely
without flaw or crevice and can be
auarried in blocks of any dimension
with i tile trouble. 1t takes the most
beautiful polish and is pronounced by
experts to be equal to the best product

THE PROPER COURT

In which to hear and decide the case
OF the Republican mix-up In Wiscon-
sin Is the court OF public opinion. 1t
is the duty OF the government to guar
antee TO every citizen free ballot
and fair count, but to determine
exactly to what extent he Is entitled to
share In the rites and benefits of
party organization is a different
matter. Law courts are, or ought to
be, non-partisan. And how could a
democratic justice OF the supreme
court, for instance, be expected TO
decide such questions as to whether
Half Breeds, Stalwarts or Fair Mind
cd Democrats are entitled TO the high
err or lower seats in the Republican
party temple?
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1904-05-26
FORWARD,

In the political contest that Is rag
ing in Wisconsin, Democrats should
turn neither to the right hand nor to
the left TO gain the support OF Stall
warts or Haii-breeds. The state 8
motto should be Democracy's motto;
and VIC rejoice that good beginning
has been made by the adoption OF a
sound platform, upon which all who
have been brought up In the faith of
true Democracy can stand, and which
plainly indicates that no backward
step is to be taken. The platform
declares for:
The stringent enforcement OF the
laws against unlawful monopolistic
combinations of capital.
A tariff for revenue only.
The repeal Of all tariff taxes on all
trust made articles
Free and uninterrupted commerce
between all the people OF the United
States.
The deposit OF surplus public mon
eys in safe bank repositories and at
current rates of interest,
The enactment Of laws prohibiting
railway corporations from engaging
In or carrying on any business ex-
cept that Of common carrier.
The speedy completion of the Pana-
ma canal.
The income tax law, and an amend
ment to the constitution, II necessary,
to accomplish 1t.
The election OF United States Sena-
tors by II direct vote Of the people.
In the advocacy OF their platform,
and in Keeping good men to the front,
Wisconsin Democrats will have quite
enough business OF their own to
attend to, without troubling them
selves about the bolt In the Republi-
can party. Democrats can win In the
election by first winning the conf
dcnce of the people, 1t is tho indie
pendent vote that counts. This vote
can be secured for Democracy, II
party leaders will place the good of
the state and nation above the nmbi-
tion of any man or set of men.
