been brought to light. as it is predict
ed congress will do soon after II

to have some disclosures to make on
The subject of "nepotism.'
The practice of carrying sons

DANGEROUS GERMS IN SUMMER
Strengthen the Stomach With Mio-na and Keep
Well.

A wealthy ph~llanthropist in New
York spends thousands of dollars
every summer providing milk for the
babies, with the result that the mor
tally is greatly decreased. He ap-
preciates the fact that disease germs
are common IN the summer and that
the stomach must be kept healthy TO
resist their attacks.
Older people do not live on a milk
diet to Insure health, but they can so
strengthen the stomach and digestive
organs by the use OF Mona that they

The Finest One Day Ride in America

Ehe New York Central railroad,
trayersing the Empire state from Buff
falo to New York, takes the traveller
through a country of not only beau
tiful scenery and historic associations,
but of surprising interest from an in
dustrial and commercial standpoint.
From the trains of the New York
Central may be seen many of the
great factories, employing thousands
of men, that go far toward giving New
York state its industrial supremacy.
Cities Of great importance in the
commercial world make the way, while
highly cultivated farms, with tneiT
substantial farm buildings, give evil
dence of the wealth and prosperity OF
the section.
There is no more beautiful or In
teresting one-day ride on this CONT
nent than that between Buffalo anC
New York, via the New York Central
and II is always an instructive and en-
tertaining journey, no matter how
frequently 1t may be made.

The ONLY Way.

There is no way - maintain n
health and strength OF mind and body
except by nourishment. There is no
way to nourish except through the
stomach. The stomach must be kept
healthy, pure and sweet or the
strength will let down and disease
will set up. No appetite, loss OF
strength, nervousness, headache, con-
~stipation, bad breath, sour risings,
rifting. indigestion, dyspepsia and all
stomach troubles that are durable are
quickly cured by the use of Kodol
| Dyspepsia Cure. Kodol digests what
you eat and strengthens the whole
digestive apparatus.

That the Minneapolis Tribune
believes with the Democrat that
the real issue of the next cam
paign should be whether the
grafters should be cleaned out
or not, the following remarkable
utterance, to come from a re.
publican paper, would show: If
the parties are to amount to any
thing in the next presidential
campaign, both of them must &C
into it under leaders who repre-.
sent this dominant idea of war
on graft. We hope that Gov
Folk will be one of them, who.
ever the other may be. Their
the result of the election canno'
be wholly DISASTROUS"

The North Dakota peniten-
tiary at Bismarck is a paying
concern for the state in actual
dollars. The receipts from the
Irvine plant more than paw the
cost of operating the punishment
factory, to say nothing of the
worth of the institution to the
state as a home for undesirable
characters" The above is from
capital correspondence to the
Fargo Forum. The same could
soon be said of South Dakota's
penitentiary if the machine gang
had not found it more to their
personal gain during the last two
legislative sessions to serve the
twine trust than the people.

President Roosevelt went TO
WOO the South and that he won 1t
is eyinced by many recent hap
penings but nothing attests 1t
more strongly than a recent
editorial in the Courier-Journal
by that arch democrat, Henry
Watterson. Read this extract.
Coming in upon a wave OF un-
exampled popular volition-part-
lv the rebound of extraordinary
conditions, but at the same time
an undeniable personal tribute
another, and quite a different
Theodore Roosevelt appeared
upon the scene; the big stick was
laid away; the habiliments OF the
rough rider were exchanged for
more conventional apparel; words
were uttered and energies
were set in motion which gave
the people promise of emancipa-
ton from the rapacity of certain
aggregations Of capital that had
long defed the law; and, finally,
by an act of daring as original as
it was felicitous, and sustained
throughout by unf1agging per.
sistence and intelligent purpose,
this recreated Theodore Roose'
welt stands forth a very arch
angel of peace, bringing upor
himself and his country glory
unspeakable.'

Clearly at Issue

President Roosevelt, last
Thursday at Raleigh, North
Carolina, said:
"Experience has shown that
the present laws are defective
and need amendment. In my
Judgment, the most important
thing to do is to give to this
administrative body power to
make it's findings effective, and
this can be done only by giving
it power, when complaint is made
of a given rate as being unjust
or unreasonable, if it finds the
complaint proper, then itself to
fix a maximum rate which it re-
CARDS as just and reasonable,
this rate to go into effect practic-
ally at once, that is, within a
reasonable time, and to stay in
effect unless reversed by the
courts"
The Aberdeen news of Wed.
nesday this week says:
THE news does not believe
that government control of rates
is expedient at this time. It be
lieves the present laws, vigorous
ly enforced as President Roose.
welt and his advisors are doins

prevent or check all transporta
