JAPANESE IRRITATION.
Relation of America and Japan

Dispatches from Berlin say the rea-

Emperor William discussed the ques

Among German military and naval
officers the possibility of a conflict be-

been freely discussed, and the profess

sea and land campaigns, which would
call forth immense exertions against
great natural obstacles. 1t was known
here in June that the British Admiralty
had considered theoretically the possible

five years, and some of the British naval

What the long suffering public-that
part of the public which has to travel
on sleeping cars has for years prayed
for has at last come to be. 1t is almost
too good to be true, but seeing is be-
lieving, and it would be hard to find
fault with any features of the new cars
of The American Palace Car Company.
A new era has dawned in the passenger
transportation line with the advent Of
this new car, which is creating some
what of sensation. 1t is a combination
of parlor, sleeper and dining car. and
has ventilated steel pockets under the
floor in which the Iberths are slowed
away in the daytime when the car is
used as parlor or dining car. The
great objections to the old style Pull
mans was the lack of ventilation and
the uncomfortable riding in the day
time with the upper berth slowed away
overhead. Under this new system a
continuous current of fresh air is pass
ing over the bedding all day long while
the car takes on the appearance of a
luXuriously furnished drawing room.

Pure Gold Seldom Seen.

Pure gold is of one unvarying and
unchanging color, but few people ever
see such gold. The kind used as mon
ey or for jewelry has alloy in it after
it is manufactured into the desired ar
ticle. In medicine, however, there is
one remedy that can always be relied
on for its purity and that is Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. in its composition
is used only the very best ana purest
ingredients, and its increasing popular
ity is proof that the public appreciates
this one pure remedy. Therefore we
urge you to insist on having Hostel
ters with our Private Stamp over the
neck of the bottle. 1t always cures poor
appetite, sick headache, vomiting, in
digestion, dyspepsia, fiatulenov, female
ills, chills, colds or malarial fever.
Don't fail to try bottle at once.

The election next Tuesday is very
important one, for it will decide
whether the trusts and great COM
mercial monopolies ehall be encour-
aged by the election of Republican
House of Representatives, or whether
the people shall give notice by the
election of a Democratic majority that
they are tired Of present conditions.
A vote for Mr.. Sturgiss is a vote for
high tariff and the encouragement Of
the trusts. A vote for Mr.. Dent is a
vote in favor of protection Of the PEG.
pie instead of the monopolies.
As to our local ticket, it is entirely
worthy Of the support of the people.
The Democratic party is wise in
presenting to the people so good a
man as Mr.. Wetzel for the Legisla.
ture. He is able, honorable and fair
a man of character and force, and
he ought to receive not only the in.
dividual support of his own party but
the votes Of right-thinking Republi-
cans as we'll.

The case against the Baltimore &
Ohio Railroad, charged with viola
ton Of the interstate commerce law
regarding the allotment of coal cars
to certain mines in West Virginia,
which was to have been heard in the
Uuited States Court at Clarksburg
before Judge Golf last week, was again
postponed. and will not be heard be-
fore next January, if then. This is
fair sample of the relief that shippers
may expect from the railroad rate
regulation bill. When Senator Elk.
ms and his railroad confreres got into
that bill the provision that throws all
contests into the United States courts,
they eAectually killed the really de-
serving feature Of the measure. Not
one shipper in ten thousand can afford
to tight the railroads through these
courts, with their delays and tech.
nicalities. and the Clarksburg case
shows just how the railroads are pro.
tected in their injustice.

Shepherd College Lecture Course.


The Shepherd College Lecture and
Entertainment Course management
announces to its patrons that it has for
them an excellent course of lectures
and entertainments in prospect for
this season. Money is not being
spared to secure strictly first class tai
emit for every number to be presented.
1t is not too much to say that this
years course will certainly come up
to the best ever given here, if it does
not exceed them. In the musical
line, it will PROFESSIONALLY exceed all
previous programmes. In the lecture
line, it hopes to come up to the high
standard set during previous years.
On account of not having heard from
one of the lecturers whom it is pur.
posed to secure, we are not able to
give in full the programme for the
five.number course; but the man
agemeut promises the public that it
will secure high.class lecturer, even
though it may not be eble to make an
engagement with the one at present
under consideration Rev. D. j. Stat
ford, D. D., of Washington, D. G one
of the most brilliant orators in Amer.
ica.) The season is so rapidly ap.
preaching, the lecture campaign must
be commenced at once, and inasmuch
as it is not yet certain who the second
lecturer shall be, the management
asks the public to take its word that
he will be one of high rating, aud to
buy our season ticket on the strength
of this promise and on the previous
record. 1t is going to offer a season
course ticket, therefore, including
five numbers, but with one of the lee
turers yet to be supplied, at the es-
tablished rate of $3.50. Single tick
cts to any one of the performances
will cost uniformly so cents. The
saving that will be made in purchas.
ing season ticket is evident to all.
This proposition is so attractive that
everybody should purchase season
tickets. What a treat season ticket
holders are going to get for 80 cents
for each number appears in the pro-
grsmme given below:
November Is, The Hawthorne Mus
ical Club. This is a novelty concert
company that does "stunts" on all Of

doubtedly be musical treat.

inent platform orator.
April 4, The Mendelssohn Concert
Company. This is really an all-star

price of the seasons ticket. They
sing and play and impersonate.

that there is every reason to believe
that Judge Dent will be elected to
Congress next Tuesday if the Demo-

county it is believed that he will be

get the Democratic vote out, and
Judge Dent will be our next Congress
man. Let no Democrat throw away
his vote next Tuesday.

HON. NJ. H. DENT,
Democratic Candidate F or Congress.

IT seems to be fact that there is
a great lack of enthusiasm among the
Republicans of the country, and a
general feeling of discomfort is every
where manifest. There is reason for
this, because the people are realizing
that the boasted prosperity of the
present day is unfair and unequally
distributed. There never was time
when the trusts and monopolies were
more Furnishing, but they are amass-
ing wealth at the expense of the great
masses of plain people, who are being
outrageously squeezed by the combi-
nations that control almost every
commodity in this country.
What does it profit man if he
gains 10 per cent in wages from en-
ployers who increase the cost of his
living by 30 per cent?
There is no denying the fact that
the cost of living is abnormally high
indeed, it seems little harder to
make ends meet just now than ever
before. Everything that family re-
quires, whether it be provisions, wear.
ing apparel or articles in household
use, is at top notch, because all are
controlled by trusts.
The remedy is change of admin
istration-the placing in power of
men who are not under the influence
of the rich and powerful corporations
that are sapping the very life blood
of the people. Start right by voting
for Judge Dent for Congress.
