Quinn Scores Bryan.

Mr. Quinn, who was chairman Of the
Illinois convention, scored Mr.. Bryan
for his reference TO the methods en-
played by the Hopkins forces
ar Quinn began by saying:
Gentlemen of the convention: I
want 20 say to you that I am always
a Democrat who believes that the ma
jority Of the party should rule. I am
50 good a Democrat that I do not re-
serve the right to vote until after tie
Democratic convention. I am so good
a Democrat that never call a man a
train robber and a thief unless know
the facts TO be so. / am so good a
Democrat that in 1896. standing upon
the platform Of the Democratic ma
tiOnal committee -stumped the state
Of Illinois and hurled the lie into the
teeth OF Democrats and Republicans
who charged that William J. Bryan
was dishonest and a repudiator. In

my county and I was defeated. but
never assumed the right. by reason OF
that defeat to nominate harbOr

Mr.: Quinn closed with a plea for a
fair hearing.
Lacked the Votes.
Mr. Bryan again spoke briefly and
the arguments were closed BY Mr..
Hopkins Mr.. Bryan received greater
applause than all the other speakers
combined but when the vote was
counted he had less than a third of
the voting delegates. The roll call on
Mr. Bryan's motion TO submit the

no right to recognize him. This ruling

convention. as cries Of Right Right

gan a fresh clamOr and threats to
clear them were again made.
Chairman Williams followed his FuI-

Captain Willnefs Remarkable Escape
Shows What to Do in Time
Of Trouble.


For many years Captain WiIinef, says
the Times Of Gloucester, Mass, was one
OF the best known seamen in the Glou-
cester fleet. The sea and its dangers
had no terror for him, but the catarrhal
troubles with which he suffered for fif-
teen years made him dread the nights
at sea, for be had to walk the cabin
floor, being unable TO lie down and sleep
OH aceocat Of the constant catarrhal
dropping
Captain Willnef went to two differ
ent hospitals for treatment, but could
get no lasting benefit He constantly
raised yellow and green phlegm and his
trouble became so unbearable and nau-
seating that he was ashamed to 90 out
in company When despairing OF ever
getting relief, his wife purchased Hyo.
mel outfit for him, and, trying it before
going to bed he enjoyed the first whole
nights sleep for ten years. Captain
Willnef says II have used less than
two bottles Of Hyomei and have been
cured by the remedy My friends ask
me what IS responsible for my improve
ment, and | tell them Hyomei, which
has given me full and complete recoy-
eryn
Captain Willnefs experience shows
our readers what to do in time of ca
tarrhal trouble use Hyomei This re-
markable treatment kills the germs Of
catarrh and makes lasting and perma-
nent cures. Rickert u Wells sell Hyo-
mel under their personal guarantee to
refund the money If it does not give
quick relief
