believe the ticket strong one are
well pleased with both candidates and
platform, and the full Democratic vote
will doubtless be polled," said NJ. f..
Tarpey, National Committeeman from
California, who arrived at the Hoffman
House yesterday.
The population in California is in =
creasing so rapidly that to look up past
election figures for a forecast of the
vote at coming election is working
in the doubt. and until the leaders have
heard from the various county organi-
cations, predictions of election figures
are useless.
The last election figures demon
stratcd one thing, however, and that is
the great strength of the independent
vote. The Governor was elected, speak
ing in round figures, by majority Of
1000 while the candidate for Justice
of the Supreme Court on the same tick
ct carried the State by 10000,

Both factions have chosen the same
presidential electors, but eleven Of the
electors have declared that they will
run on the ticket with La Toilette. This
means that IL the Stalwarts, as the

to be the regular nominees, the ticket
will be without the number of electors
who follow La Toilette, and there Is
no doubt II tine decision goes against
the La Toilette people that they will

WORSE THAN FREE SILVER

Much as Mr.. Bryan has been critf-
cised for his advocacy of free coinage
that policy is not as indefensible as Is
his attempt to commit the Democratic
Party to a declaration in favor of own
ership of railroads by the various
States. That is what he is now ex-
plotting. and what he wants TO commit
the Party to, if we, understand his po-
sition.
At the outset the difficulties in the
way of successfully carrying out his
plan appear insurmountable. The first
step would be to get possession of ex-
listing lines, and how would it be done?
To announce that the State would buy
all railroads would be the signal for
such bulling of prices as no one has
ever heard of. Each railroad would
look on the proposition as an oppor-
tunity to gel a big pile of public
money, and would double or treble its
rupt Alabama, for example, to buy all
the railroads in the State, even at fair
prices, but no one can suppose that
fair prices would be put on the prop
erty.
The alternative would be to condemn
all the roads and that would involve
such complications as can hardly be
imagined. All important railroads now
are through lines, running into and
through several States. Would 1t be
possible for all the States to obtain
possession of the roads running
through them? Even If this could be
done, it would only be a beginning of
the trouble. Each State would make
it's own regulations, and the natural
result would be that all the great rail-
road systems would be cut UP into Sec
tons governed by different regulations
and subject to different restrictions. In
our opinion railroad enterprise would
or Improvement has ever experienced
States sometimes build and operate
railroads, though even that is not al
ways an encouraging success, but when
it comes to taking possession of all the
roads now in existence the difficulties
would be magnified Il thousand fold.
AS we view it the proposition is the
very essence and limit of Populism
and has no place in Democratic plat
forms or policies 1t Is more dangerous
and impracticable than even free sill

IME REAL AND THE FRAUDULENT.

1t has long been saying that no
prepared foods or delicacies. OF course
there are pure jams. jellies and the like
to be had. but equally of course some
lack very much of 1t. One example
will illustrate what we mean. The
State Dairy and Food Commissioner of
Minnesota recently received letter
from one of the largest manufacturers
of canned products in the East. and
this Is what he says about one item:
"T have seen raspberry jam made in
gradients: The base of this Jam was
apple parings and cores, as prepared
and packed in barrels by apple evapo-
rators. These parings and cores were
together with sufficient water and glu-
cose. the latter for sweetening. and
boiled until the mass was thoroughly
cooked and SOFT Then 1t was strained
make a clear looking thick liquid.
Next a quantity of analine dyes.
coal tar product. was stirred In for
color: then a quantity of grass seed to
semblance was close enough to deceive
an expert-was incorporated in the
mass, and finally a favoring extract
was added The label said: Pure
Quality of Fresh Fruit When it
cooled off 1t was a close imitation of
the genuine article. 1t tasted good,
bur none of the ingredients were within
miles OF d raspberry patch"
We print the letter in full so that
the reader may understand exactly
how it is done Probably none of the
ingredients used in this preparation is
unwholesome or in any way hurtful,
but that Is not the point. Mixing lard,
fellow or cotton-seed oil with butter
may not be injurious to the consumer,
but 1t is a swindle just the same. II
1t is labelled and sold as pure butter
as is so frequently done. the purchaser
pays for something he doesn't get, and
In addition to that he pays high price
for cheap products.
So with this raspberry jam. 1t may
be as palatable and wholesome as the
genuine fruit jam would be, but the
purchaser is deceived. If a man re-
ceives and passes a counterfeit bill
without knowing it to be counterfeit,
he is not injured, but the one who made
and issued 1t is a swindler. So, if a
man should buy a eold-plated watch,
raging the price of solid gold he
might never know the difference or
know that be had been swindled, but
the swindle would be there, just the
same There are many food prepara-
lions which are not what they are rep
resented to be, some of them harmless
and some otherwise, but all of them
more or less fraudulent. 1t is not so
much that the customer is swindled,
but it is a wrong and an imposition
on the manufacturers of pure articles
who will not resort to fraud in their
operations. And yet, often as these
swindles are exposed. there seems no
way of suppressing them, and those
who put up and handle pure products
are the sufferers, are also those who
buy and use the limitations. The prac-
tice is fully as unjustifiable as coun-
terfeiting money is, but it goes on and
will probably continue to flourish

YOUR STOMACH
NEEDS HELP
Mental Effort Deprives it Of Blood and
Promotes Dyspepsia.

II you must do much thinking You
should do little eating.
Mental effort calls all blood to the
brain-takes it from the stomach where
it is needed to aid in digestion.
AS rule, brain workers think their
digestive organs can take care of them
selves. They eat whatever tempts them.
then instead of resting and allowing their
busy stomachs full blood pressure to
aid them in their work, they keep right
on with their mental labors.
AS a result of this handicap, the
stomach gets behind in its work and
cannot catch up again. Indigestion,
then dyspepsia.
If you would be well give your stomach
the help it needs. Take Rexall Dys-
pepsia Tablet after each meal and upon
going to bed. This will keep your digest
i've apparatus in good working order
will restore it to healthy condition if Il
has already gone wrong.
WORDS OF APPRECIATION.
Words fail to express my gratitude for what
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets have done for me.
Three weeks ago when l began to take them
could not keep a glass Of water down and had
onions, and in fact anything want. Rexali
Tablets have done what doctors failed to do
CHARLES HuGHEs, Winslow. Maine.
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets make thin
people fat pale people rosy, and weak

to digest food and to extract therefrom
the last particle of nourishment. They

active brain.
