As the election nears the crucial

ument of absolute certainty that Hon
Frank Mathews will be the next dele

assailants and their falsehoods, has
won him hosts OF friends in all sec.

The Democratic party rightly con
delnns the Hamilton statehood bill for
It's outrageous partisan provisions and
never for It's statehood provision.
When the Hon Bird Mcclure declares
that every Democrat in the lower
house of congress voted against the
bill, he did not state the real reason
why they voted against IT, He knows
that the Eepublican majority at his
own suggestion. made it SO obnoxious
IN it's partisan features that no self

however willing he might be to give
Oklahoma statehood. in order that he
might parade the vote before our peo

JUDGE PARKER's STRENGTH.

Democrats in all parts of the state
share the Worlds confidence that
Judge Parker viii carry New York oy
a rousing majority.
Mr.. Roosevelt has never been a
great "vote-getter in this city or state.
When he ran for Mayor in 1886 he got
only 60,435 votes, while Erhardt re-
ceiyed $4,000 in 1883 and Enstein 49,
geo in 1892 as straight Republican can
didates
When II Roosevelt ran for Cover
nor in 1898 even the glamour of his
Cuban war record enabled him to beat
Mr.. Crocker's Van Wyke No , by only
17,286 plurality. Two years before Nc
Kinley had carried the state by $50
600. In 1894 Governor Morton carried
the state by 10000, and the Republi-
can candidate for Secretary of Sta,e
was elected by 10000 in 1895.
Mr. Roosevelt's course as President
has not strengthened him, in his own
state. On the contrary it has weaken
ed him. Neither Plat or Odell like
him. Conservative business men dis
trust him. The independent voters
voters have been disappointed and dis
gusted at his cultivated alliances with
the most notorious spoilsmen Of his
party-Lou Payn being the latest.
Judge Parker has the confidence
and esteem Of his own party and the
respect Of the Independent voters.
He was elected to the Supreme Court
by the unanimous vote Of both parties
and carried the state for Chief Justice
of the Court Of Appeals by $1,000 the
year after the great landslide to Me
Kinley.
The Democratic party is united and
enthusiastic for It's candidate for pres
ident. The masterful manner in which
with a few simple, strong, honest
words he brought order out of chaos
at st. Louis and reunited and revived
the party, has opened the way to an
other Tilden campaign.
New Jersey and Connecticut hav<

Democratic leaders in those states ar

A Teachers Testimony.

Hinton, KY, Nov. 2S.-(Special.) )
1T has long been claimed that Diabetes
is incurable, but Mr.. e. J. Thompson,
teacher in the Hinton school, has
pleasing evidence to the contrary. Mr..
Thompson had Diabetes. He took
Dodd's Kidney Pills and is cured. In
a statement he makes regarding his
cure Mr.. Thompson says:
Il was troubled with my kidneys for
more than two years and was treated
by two Of the best doctors in this part
Of the State. They claimed I had Dia-
betes and there was little to be done
for me. Then / started to use Dodd' s
Kidney Pills and what they did for me
was wonderful. 1t is entirely ewing
to Dodd's Kidney Pills that am noa
enjoying good health"
Many doctors still maintain that Dia-
bctes is incurable. But Diabetes is a
kidney disease. and the kidney disease
that Dodd's Kidney Pills will not cure
has yet to be discovered.
