interest and intelligence.
But it is not made in good faith, and
is only sample of that kink of small
politics which is inflicting the state,
and emanates from those whose peculi-
ar mental and moral texture incline
them to believe evil rather than good
of their fellowman.
l am a candidate for governor of
Tennessee on my own responsibility,
free from promise or alliance of any
sort, and rest my claim ON such merit
as l may possess, and on principles
which believe to be vital to the people
of the State and to the cause of good
government.
The Office of Governor is first in the
gift of the people.
1t CARRIES with it great honor and
commensurate responsibility.
It's duties and powers affect the
material and moral well-being of the
people, and for veal or woe, they
should realize its Importance. The
question, "Who shall be Governor of
TENNESSEE" should neither be over
Swallowed by any other contest nor
dwarfed by the personal and fac
tional rivalries OF candidates for other
offices.
The Executive Office is too dlgnifed
and represents too much to be made
the shuttlecock Of politics. / have
chosen to make my contest from this
standpoint, and to appeal to the people
to whom all Office belongs, and who
alone have the right of bestowal. II
they see fit to place this great trust in
my hands, I shall strive to use it with
wisdom and patriotism, for the benefit
of all the people and return II
unsullied.
METHOD OF NOMINATION.
AS candidate I preferred request
to the Executive Committee that the
nomination for Governor by the Dem.
ocratic party be made by direct vote Of
the people, believing that this method
was the fairest to ascertain the popular
will.
The attempt of some editors of news
papers to draw distinction between {
primary for Governor and that fol
United States Senator demonstrates
how distinction may be drawn with
out difference.
They say that candidates fer Cover
nor had never been nominated by
primary but they neglected to say tina
neither has a candidate for Senator
They forgot to say that in most of tn
States surrounding Tennessee the pri
mary plan for nominating candidate
for Governor has been adopted witt
admirable results and to the satisfac
tion of the voters.
The Executive Committee of the Stat
in ignoring this request, took advan
tage of the Senatorial situation and ex
pected that in the general demand TO
! primary and the intense interes
which had been aroused in that cor
test, it could escape criticism in deny
ing the people another right. I al
sert that more reasons can be give
why a Gubernatorial primary is d.

MANKIND HAS COLD BLOOD.
Comparative Low Temperature II to
Blame for Most Human
Ailments.

sMan Is the coolest FLOODED animal
there is, and guess the people who profit
by 1t most at this time of the year are
the saloon-keepers, the furriers, the
drug stores and-we doctors" remarked
DR.. e. ]. Neville. Of Albany, who came
here to attend a meeting OF the New
York State Medical association. The
doctor, says the New York Globe, who
was sitting in the hall Of the Victoria,
was led to make the above remark
through the appearance of man pass

MANS low temperature" the doctor
went on, sis responsible for more than
half his ailments. Your normal tenn
perature Is 98h degrees Fahrenheit. It
is only when you have bad tempera-
ture that you get as warm as any OF the
lower animals. That Is to say, when
you are in a high fever with tempera-
ture of 102 you are at the normal heat
of the cat, the dog, the OK, the rat and
SO on. In the coolest of seas the por-
poise is never cooler than 100 degrees.
The bat, the rabbit, the guinea pig, the
hare and the elephant likewise are all
cool at 100 degrees.
''The hen has the highest temperature
Of all the lower creatures, and 1t Is a
good deal warmer, too, when chicken.

q DANGEROUS HABIT
GIadstone's physician Give Warming
Against a Growing American
Custom.

The growing habit amongst Amer.
leans of taking a mint tablet or some
other SO called digestive after eating
a hearty meal, is something that Sir
Andrew Clarke. Mr.. Gladstone's ply
sician advises strongly against saying.
"It is absolutely dangerous to take
into the stomach remedies which are
popularity supposed to aid in the
digestion of food"
There is nothing known to the
science of medicine that can per-
form the work Of the human stomach.
Drugs do not and cannot digest the
food. They simply decompose it.
What can be more revolving or dis
gushing than the thought of taking
something into the stomach that is 60
ing to turn the good food you have
eaten into mass of corruption.
The only way to overcome indiges-
tion and its evil effects is to remove

The Northwestern Line,

One of the most interesting series of
articles on the subject of the great
railways Of the country that has
appeared recently, is that from the
pen of Frank II. Spearman, recently
published in the Saturday Evening
Post, and since printed In book form
by Scribners. The chapter descrip-
tive of the Chicago & Northwestern
railway has been published by the
passenger department of that line in
pamphlet form for general distribu-
ton, and will be sent to any address
on receipt of cents for postage.

WEALTHY MEN OF COLORADO
The Centennial State Possesses Over
One Hundred Bona-Fide
Millionaires.

Colorado is the state Of vast individual
fortunes, outranking any other state IN
the union ON a per capita basis It has
the further distinction that most OF its
vast fortunes were made within its
boundaries, not alone in mining, but
in the cattle industry, in realty spec
ulation, In fruit, sugar beet culture, po-
ato-farming and in manufacturing
and other mercantile pursuits.
Many people of wealth have moved
into the state In the last few years and
invested large sums in mining corpora
lions, In the stocks Of banks and other
enterprises, and are not individually
known to the commercial agencies.
Still another class represents the re-
tired country capitalist, who has moved
from the section in which his wealth
was acquired to Denver Of Colorado
Springs. His individual holdings. too,
unless they are in realty, are necessarily
hidden from the regular commercial in
formation sources.
Who is the richest man in Colorado
David Moffat, capitalist, Of Denver. The
most conservative estimate OF $16. 0OO,-
900 was given by two persons who would
naturally be expected to exaggerate Mr..
Moffat's wealth. On the other hand.
from those nearest him, those who
ought to know and yet would not allow
an exaggerated estimate to be given
cut, the estimate was between $25,000.-
and s3O,0O0,000, giving him an easy Lead
In the Colorado list.
There are 108 millionaires, and II to
these could be added the names OF those
who have left Colorado after making
fortunes, 1t could be easily doubled. The
total wealth of the 10S millionaires OF
Colorado aggregates about $3.50. 000. 600.
There is probably no section OF the world
with population Of less than 100000
that can show such home production OF
wealth.

all irritation, congestion and infiam-
alton from the stomach. liver and
intestines, and Mona is the only
agent known that will do this.
When a Mi-o-na tablet is taken
before each meal every trace of irrita-
tion and inflammation is removed
from the stomach and digestive
system, and those organs will extract
from the food all that goes to make
good, rich blood, firm muscle, steady
nerves and sound healthy body. If
you suffer with headaches, indiges-
tion, flatulency, spots before the eyes,
vertigo, or dizziness, palpitation of
the heart, sleepiessness, or any
stomach trouble, get fifty cent box
of Mi-o-na from John E. Daily one of
our most reliable druggists, whose
faith in the remedy is shown by his
offer to return the money if Mi-o-na
does not give complete satisfaction.

To the Honorable County Board of
Wood county, Wis.
Gentlemen: We, the undersig ned
committee appoined at the annual
meeting of your honorable body to act
on certain appeal by petition from
the action of the town board of the
town of Milladore, setting fourth that
the said town board had neglected and
refused to put in passable condition
certain highway of said town, viz:
Commencing on the section corners of
section 4 and 5, running south one
mile on said section line thence west
one mile on section line between and
8. Your committee viewed such high
way IN person and interviewed the resi-
dents of the afore said town on the
matter. We found no settlerso n these
lands and also that this road had been
laid out about years. There has been
a considerable sum of money expended
on this aforesaid road, the whole two
miles have been cleared, one and one
half logged. We had some talk with
the Chairman Joseph Kohe1, he said
that they intended to build the road as
soon as it was possible. Always having
in mind the welfare of the whole Town
and after having some talk with other
tax payers, taking into consideration
all the facts obtainable by us and Civ
ing the case fair and unbiased trial.
We would recommend that the petition
be not granted or laid on table

Manufacture of Chartreuse.

One of the few items of foreign trace
of this district in which change Is shown
is alcohol. which is being imported now
by the Carthusian monks, lately emil
grated from France, who have trans
ferred the manufacture Of their re-
nowned chartreuse to this city. They
continue to receive spirits for its manu-
facture from the distilleries which they
owned and are suspected Of owning still
in other countries. It's doubtful whether
they will find it economical to continue
under their present management owing
to the custom house duties which they
tried to avoid by pleading the re-
expectation OF alcohol after it is blended
in their liquor. Drawbacks are uu-
known in this, the country OF their
adoption, and the claims were not al.
lowed.
