Mcclure,s For Arril.

McClure's for April is fairly stunning
IN its effect. The first Of q series of
articles on 1.-THE enemies of the Repu5-
Zig, " by Lincoln Steffens, which will
consider the Improvement OF stftes,
takes up Missouri and gives the reader
a shock be will not soon forget. II is the
bribe-giver, not the bribe-taker, who is
really responsible for the bad govern.
ment, Mr. Steffens points out. The
successful business man, the captain of
industry Is the man to catch, and Mr..
Steffens proceeds to catch him. In
graphic, fearless words he tells the
story of corruption's work and rule in
Missouri, Of the barter OF public in
terest to the great trusts by the peo-
pies servants, of the big business men
Sho buy and politicians who sell a
peoples rights, their very government
itself. Mr.. Steffen's article is more
than startling, it is staggering in Its
frank uncovering of the plain but
alarming truth.
Ida NJ. Tarbell follows close with an
account Of the illeged "Breaking up of
the Trust" IN her "History Of the
Standard Oil Company" She gives
the results of legislative Investigations
and court proceedings against the
Company which forced it into publicity
and reorganization. john d. Rock
fellows testimony in these cases is de.
scribed in such a manne as to present
clearly his limitations both in ethics
and humor. Miss Tarbell simply quotes
Mr.. Rockfellow. His own words fix
and define him. AS usual, Miss Tar.
bell deals only with the facts. They
tell their own story and shape theil

Chas. W. Loomis Guarantees to Refund
Money if Hyomei Fails to Cure the
Worst Case of Catarrh.

Chss. W. Loomis Guarantees to Refund
Money if Hyomei Fails to Cure the
Worst Case Of Catarrh.
1t is no uncommon thing to see 4
medicine advertised as a guaranteed
cure" But Investigation usually
shows that the guarantee is made by
some unknown firm, hundreds of miles
away.
The guarantee, though, that comes
with Hyomei, is entirely different. 1t
is made by Chss. w. Loomis, one Of
the most reliable drug firms in This
section. He advertises hat if Hyomei
does not cure the worst case of catarrh
he will return the money without any
question ~ argument. No business
house in Lexington has a better rep
utation for square dealing than Chas.
w. Loomis, and when he guarantees
that he will refund the money if
Hyomei fails to cure catarrh, no one
has any question as to the agreement
being lived up to, both in the spirit
and letter.
Hyomei is very easy and pleasant to
use. Just breathe it through the little
inhaler that comes with every outfit;
every breath will bring recovery so
much the nearer. 1t kills all the
catarrhal troubles in the air passages
of the head, throat and lungs, soothes
and heals the irritated mucous mem-
brane, and is the only natural cure for
catarrh.
The complete outfit costs but one
dollar, and extra bottles Of Hyomei
can be obtained for fifty cents. Do
not let a slight catarrhal trouble de.
velop into one that may be serious and
chronic. Use Hyomei at once, remem-
bering that you run no risk whatever
when you try Hyomei on Chas. w.
LOOMS offer of mo cure, no pay"

this form, "Do it todayl" That is
the terse advice we want to give you
about that hacking cough or demon
alizing cold with which you have
been struggling for several days, per-
haps weeks. Take some reliable
remedy for it today-and let that
remedy be DR.. Boschee's German
Syrup, which has been in use for over
thirty five years. A few doses of it
will undoubtedly relieve your cough
or cold, and its continued use for a
few days will cure you completely
No matter how deep-seated your

attacked your lungs, German Syrup
will surely effect a cure-as it has
done before In thousands Of appar.

THE SCHOOL LEVY

At the approaching city election
the citizens will be called upon to
vote for or against the proposition to
make the school levy for this district
80 cents on the 800 valuation. This
is no increase over the levy of the
past few years, but the law requires
that where a levy Of more than 40
cents on the 800 is desired, the ques-
ton must be voted upon each year. A
vote for the levy is not a vote to In.
cas- taxes over the present rate,
but TO maintain them at the present
rate. Unless the proposition carries
as it has done in the past, the school
term will have to be reduced to six
months. This would largely increase
the number Of years required to com
plete the courses Of study and would
s%eriously cripple the work Of the high
school.

very encouraging indication to those
who are opposed n william Ran.
dOlph Hearst The only possible
chance for success to the national
democracy IN the approaching cam
paign, the only hope Of even maintain
ing the party integrity and Organiza-
ton for future victories, consists 10
a prudent and Just union on the part
Of the Northern and the Southern
democracy and the selection OF a can
didate who can give rise to no fac
tionalism. Judge Parker may not be
the right man, but the fact that his
own state endorses him so heartily
and the fact that the South Is not
averse to him is at least a good indi-
cation.
Mr. Bryan. it is said, is opposed to
Judge Parker, because while Parker
supported Bryan both in 1896 and 10
1900, be has never given public ex-
preston to his views upon the silver
question. This can hardly be consid-
cred a disqualification Since there
is not the slightest likelihood of any
radical financial legislation within
the next four years, 1t is really het-
ter for the cause of party harmony
that his views upon the subject are
unknown. Party unity and effective
activity are going to depend most
upon sanity and conservatism in the
leader who is opposed to the eccen-
trio Roosevelt, and upon a sensible
programme of national action and a
sound platform Of essential principles.
The West will never vote with the
democrats except in hard times, and
then only when the platform is com-
promised With socialism and pOpulism.
The South Is necessarily democratic
upon any platform; and at this par
ticular time, the North is growing
weary Of the uncertain Roosevelt and
the tariR-born trusts,
1t has never been so clear as now
to the people OF the North that the
tariff is graft pure and simple. We
Of Missouri have concerned ourselves
considerably over the alum baking
powder legislation Of a few years ago,
which resulted 10 outlawiDg every
thing in the baking powder line ex
cept the product Of a tartaric acid
trust. The sugar tariff, the steel
tariff, the glass tariff-every item Of
our tariff schedule is as much graft
as the baking powder law. Grating
by tariff legislation In the interest Of
private business has become the fun
damental principle Of a great and
highly organized political party. 1t
has corrupted our national life and
brought on all the evils complained Of
in our commercial civilization. When
ever the democratic hosts have been
oficered by men who inspired public.
confidence they have won upon this
issue. Judge Parker is orthodox upon
this issue; and both his past history
and his recent victory in New York
give evidence of the confidence 10
which he is held In that section Of
country which has most to suffer
from reckless disturbance OF the sta.
BILE order of things and most to gain
from conservative amendment of our
present tariff ways,

The ruling OF Pension Commission.
er Ware that all the old soldiers Of
the union army in the wal between
the states are entitled to service pen
sions after they reach the age of sixty
two years is as rank a specimen of
legislation by executive order as can
be found in history. The sole ground
for the order is found in the fact that
twenty years ago congress passed a
pension law 10 favor Of the veterans
of the Mexican war who attained the
age of sixty two years. Ware argued
that if the latter we're deserving Of
the pension the former must be, with
out waiting for the trivial formality
of enacting a statute. Already the
pension Office has been swamped, and

frantic intensity Of motive-appar-
emily Unconscious motive-renders the
whole performance at once ludicrouS
