Frisco, Utah, May 2nd.-Thers 10 a
great deal OF rheumatism in this and
neighboring states and this painful dis
ease has crippled many strong man
and woman among an otherwise healthy
people.
Recently, however, there has been in
troduced into Utah 4 remedy for Rheu-
matism which bids fair to stamp out
this awfully painful complaint. The
name of this new remedy is Dodd's
Kidney Pills, and it has already
wrought some wonderful cures. Right
here in Frisco there is case of Mr..
Grace who had Rheumatism 90 bad in
his feet that he could hardly walk.
He tried many remedies in vain but
Dodd's Kidney Pills cured him.
His wife says:-"We both had Kid
ney Trouble and my husband had the
Rheumatism so bad that he could hard.
ly walk. We used Dodd's Kidney Pills
with much benefit. We have tried
many remedies, but none have done us
80 much good as Dodd's Kidney Pills"
Similar reports come from all over
the state and it would seem as if Rheu.
matism had at last been conquered.

Trade REPORT.

Bradstreets report on trade says.
Distributive trade continues quiet at
most markets, and April trade the
country over has not equaled a year
ago The absence heretofore of the
usual volume of spring demand is de-
pressing to dealers, who fear they
will be obliged to carry over surplus
stocks. Signs of improvement are.
however, to be noted in the northwest,
where better weather has helped re-
tail and wholesale trade. Pacific coast
trade and crop advices are better than
of late, and while the weather and crop
conditions are backward at the south
the exceptionally strong position of the
leading interests renders the outlook
for the future very helpful. Backward
weather has retarded cotton planting
and spring wheat seeding, while crop
termination and growth are generally
reported slow the country over.
Special activity is noted at different
cities and the Pacific coast.
During the first four months of the
year upward of $4,000 men have gone
on strike, for various causes, but while
there is considerable unrest, rather
less than the usual May day disturb
ances are looked for.

The Republicans held another rally
last Saturday evening at Court house
hall, and a good sized audience was
OH hand to hear what DIR. Ayles-
worth, president of the State Agricul-
tural college, and Eugene Grubb,
candidate against Ed Taylor for the
state senate, had to say. Both are
travelling ostensibly in the interest
of the college, but while they put in
one word for that worthy institution,
ten are put in in the interest of
Grubb, the candidate. But as the
state is paying the expenses of Messrs
Aylesworth and Grubb, campaigning
is not much of hardship in their
case, at least. This is the first time
In the history of the state that the
head OF one of our principal educa-
tional institutions has taken to

party. The spectacle is not an edify-

suffering for legislation modifying

commerce, governing the Panama
zone, and regulating immigration.
But Democrats declare that 1t is In
dispensable for them for exactly the
same reason. Does the glib-tonged
senator mean to confess that Repub-
licans neglected their duty in not
providing this legislation last winter.

Nothing to Fear as
Adams is the Candidate

Many Democrats in the state are
unnecessarily worried because the Pop
ulists have placed Il full state ticket
In the field. There Is no occasion for
this, if Democracy at its state con-
vention will nominate for governor,
a man who has the courage of his
convictions, man who is too large,
too unselfish to attempt to govern the
state in the interest of n few. If the
convention which will nominate a
man of this kind will declare emphat-
ically and with meaning that each
man shall be accorded the rights
guaranteed him by the constitution,
whether he be a farmer, union or n
nonunion man, whether a member OF
a money trust or any other kind of a
trust, whether rich or poor, infiuen-
ttal or not, whether he is the hunbl-
est citizen, or the richest and most
powerful, whether he belongs to a
fruit growers association or a melon
growers association, regardless of
his status in life shall be accorded
all of the rights of an American citi-
zen, to whom the law shall say thus
far shall thou go and no farther, then
Democracy has nothing to fear and
victory shall perch upon her banners
on election day in November.-Flor-
ence Elk Parte.
And this is just the very thing the
Democracy did.

Cause of Lockjaw.

Lockjaw, or tetanus, is caused by a
bacillus or germ which exists plen-
tifully in street dirt. 1t is inactive
so long as exposed TO the air, but
when carried beneath the skin, as in
the wounds caused by percussion caps
or by rusty nails, and when the air is
excluded the germ is aroused to ac-
tivity and produces the most virulent
poison known. These germs may be
destroyed and all danger of lockjaw
avoided by applying Chamberlain

jury is received. Pain Balm is an

opium or other harmful substance
and may be given as confidently to a
baby as to an adult. 1t is also pleas

surprising that people in foreign
