A Bundle Of Letters.
New York Tribune.l

We believe we are betraying no con-
fidence in publishing the following cor
respondence, placed in our hands by
gentleman obviously high in the coun-
sells OF the democratic party. Said he.
in turning over the documents: These
letters show the kind of men on whom
we rely today: their gilt-edged hero
ism; their eagerness for the fray-so
that a mere telegram is enough to start
them fighting-and their unquenchable
desire to do the American people good
and plenty. / think the public ought to
know the truth about my friends" We
think so, too, and SO rush these prec-
ious epistles into print.
DR.. A-g-st B-lm--nt, Wall street,
New York:
Dear Doctor: Fir eight years was a
slave to silver and fell very low, but
since your Gold Cure was brought to
my attention / have recovered all my
nerve. l find no difficulty in running;
i know already how to get under
wire, keep my eye constantly on THE
Post" and l am now quite sure that
can give satisfaction to my hackers.
I trust that they will remember my
good faith when at the close OF the
season in November / am looking for
another engagement. Gratefully yours.

Here I've done more talking to the

Dear Sirs: For many years my sta
pie of food was peanuts, but in 1895
lost the gold filing from my wisdom
tooth and have since been compelled
to live on soft food and to proceed with
great caution. This filing, however,
having been replaced and beaten down
with force at ST. Louis recently, l am
now prepared to resume my old diet
and crack the hardest nut. Please
forward me two carloads of peanuts,

Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait. the pres

making children work.
"A Chicago woman she said. "has
a little boy who hates to practise writ

matter of writing she could do moth

when l met her again, she said COM
placently:
Well, Harry spends quite two hours
a day now at his writing regularly
How in the world, said !, did you
bring this miracle to pass?
The woman wfnked slightly.
II told him. she said, to make out,
in his very best hand, a list OF every
thing he wanted for Christmas, and he
has been at 1t ever since"

the monopolies for money to burn in
these six counties. 1t grinds the re-
publican managers to have the popu-
lous and rich Second district repre-
scented in congress by a democrat and
particularly by one who attracts such
wide national attention as Judge Wade.
But the cause of Congressman Wade
like his candidacy will prove invineible.
He will have votes enough to elect with
some thousands thrown in for good
luck. He will get them from united
democracy, from independents, and
from straightout republicans. The
people of this district want all the
brains and character they can get, and
they are sure of their ground in cleo
ing Judge Wade.

DEMOCRATS CONFIDENT.


The question that made the most
trouble for the Republican managers
in conference in Des Moines the other
day was that of the means to use TO
accomplish the defeat of Judge wade
in the Second Congressional district.
They were right in taking 1t for
granted that the judge will be renom-
mated and that without the mention OF
another name. But the republican
managers have neither wit nor money
enough to put one of their faith IN the
congressional shoes of the man from
Iowa City.
OF course the republicans will bunch
al, the oratorical talent they can get
from members of the presidents cab
met and the senators from this state,
down to the speakers who can talk
Russian. Chinese and other tongues.

The Register and Leader editorial Of
Monday was written to please the dem
ocratic wing of its supporters That
paper on several occasions last week
had some exceptionally good repuhE-
can editorials. and the democratic side
of the house was evidently getting UNI
easy.-Dallas News.
The editorial referred to by the News
was written In Endorsement OF trade
treaty negotiated by Blaine and APP
proved by Mckinley, and again nego-
tiated by Hay and approved by Roose-
Welt. Will the News be SO kind as to
state when it was that the trade poll
cies of Blaine, Mckinley. Hay and
Roosevelt became democratic? The
News may prefer to stand with the
hat-eyed senate on the Newfoundland
treaty and to question the judgment of
the two last republican administra-
tons. But it should at least be fair
enough to admi. that others may stand
with the administrations and yet be
honest, even If they can not be wise.
