WHEN DID YOU DO TIP

The republican spellbinders ale al
ready talking about the republican
party having established the gold
standard. When did they do it? Will
some of them please give US the pre-
else date? Was it when Mckinley
started the minis to coming silver
night and day? The director of the
mint in his report of that year says
that the New Orleans mint was run
night and day with double shifts COIN
ing silver. What that the time they es-
tablished the gold standard? Oh was
it the time that they passed a law
allowing the banks to increase their
circulation eleven per cent by issuing
money to them to the full amount OF
the bonds deposited, whereas before
they only got back 80 per cent of the
value of their bonds? Or was 1t
when they passed another law allow
ing national banks to be established
everywhere with only $4,000 capital
Was that the date of the establishment
of the gold standard? Come now.
Tell US when you did it.

THOSE KANSAS RUFroNs

The Kansas City Star, in speaking
of the so-called populist state conven-
ton Of Kansas remarks. There new
er was a more absurd convention"
That is what the dailies Of both Old

Well it does look somewhat absurd
to see populist convention presided
over by man who was democratic
candidate for congreks and its pro-
ceedings recorded by democratic
candidate for secretary of state. Tie
whole thing was disgrace from be-
ginning to end. Never anything like
it occurred in American politics be-
fore. There were whole county dele
cations there shouting for Parker.
One negro made a speech and declared
that If man of my colah can sup
port Parker it is time. for de white

ance? OF course. The performers are
the laughing stock of the whole cOun-

to make wooden Injun" smile. It
won't be three months until the whole
thing will be put on the stage by the
managers of the negro minstrel shows.
There have been some strange capers
cut in Kansas politics before, but this
caps the climax.
The populists of the whole nation
as well as the populists of Kansas re:

populist state convention in Kansas
over which democrat will not preside
and the proceedings will not be re-

the dailies of the state of all parties
ridicule it. The men who managed it
are despised by all honest men. They
made themselves the rightful subjects

they are getting it from all sides. The

product is fouler than any thing that
could be fished from the sinkho,es of
Wall street. They called it pop
ulist convention and the chairman
was the regular nominee for con-
gress of the democratic party. The
secretary was made the regular nom
inee of the democratic party for sec
rotary of state. And they called it a
populist convention!
The Kansas City Star and the re-
publican papers Of the state announce
with great deal of satisfaction and
much hilarity that "The end OF the
populist party came when the bolt of

UNDER A HEAVY FIRE
Japanese Forced Passage Across the
Yalu River. ,e
WORKED FEINr ON RUSSIANS
Dispatches Received In st. Petersburg
but No News Given Out-Reported
Russians Sank Four Japanese Trans
ports.

Liza Yang, April 27.-Between Mon
day night and Tuesday morning the
Japanese forced passage of the Yalu,
two companies crossing between
Tschangdjiou and Siao Roussilxhe.
Heavy firing was heard near Tatung
kau, In which 1t is believed the Japan
csc made a feint in order to distract
attention from the real point Of pass
age. So far no bridge spans the river.
1t is believed the Russian fire succeed
ed in destroying the floating parts Of
the Japanese bridge.
st. Petersburg, April 27.-The Gen.
sors committee did not give out last
night any dispatches received Tuesday
regarding the movements of the jap
anese across the Yalu river. 1t was
intimated that information had been
received that the Japanese had crossed
the river, but this was accompanied by
statement that the success of the en-.
envy should in no sense be regarded as
an important victory, the Russians
having no intention of vigorously con-
testing the passage, their plan being
to annoy the enemy as much as posi-.
BILE.
1t is evident from the dispatches re-
ceived here that in order to render a
crossing feasible, the Japanese made
a feint on Tatung Kau, while the
troops actually crossed some miles up
the river near Tchangdjiou. Two conf
panies were first thrown into Man
churia and unquestionably entrenched
and Immediately under cover of their
guns achievements crossed.
1t Is regarded as probable that when
these troops are in sufficient numbers
they will march along the Manchuri-
an bank of the Yalu in the direction Of
Antung, near which lies the road on
which the advance can continue to
Feng Hoang Tchang, where the first
determined stand of the Russians will

Oilin Alaska.

The recent account of the large ship
ment of men, machinery and supplies
to the Alaska oil fields aroused consider
able interest in this new prospective in
dustry. Like all other similar ventures,
however, the oil industry in Alaska is
at present largely speculative. The
same is also very true in regard to most
of the medicines offered to cure stomach,
liver and kidney ills. They spring up
from time to time, make wonderful
claims, but because of lack of merit are
soon forgotten. Not so, however, with
the famous Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
1t has been before the public continuous
ly for fifty years, and if it was not safe
and reliable medicine could not have
stood the severe test of half century.
For spring fever, general debility, indi-
gestion, dyspepsia, constipation, bilious
ness, la grippe, or malaria, it is I'M
equaled. Give it trial.
