Net an Issue.

All this balderdash about the
enforcement Of the law being an
issue in the approaching cam
paign in this State between the
Democratic and Republican par
tics, makes any man past middle
age exceedingly tired. All men
cr this age know how relentlessly
the Republican party has en-
forced the law ever since it be-
gan to make history for this
country.
One of the most eminent men
that ever sat in the presidential
chair gave ltterance To the sen
timent the way to test a law is
to enforce it. If it is a good law,
well and good: if it is a bad law
its enforcement will hasten its
repeal" And when there seem.
ed TO be q carnival of crime in
which the whiskey trust was
engaged, his instructions to law
officers was let no guilty man
escape. And from that day to
this this has been the policy of the
Republican party, as it was be-
fore, is now, and ever shall be.
Hadley has been in office less
than two years as Attorney Gen
eral of the State of Missouri, and
in that time has done more to-
ward the enforcement of law
than was done by his predecessor
in tie eight years he had the
office. This much for the pOlit.
ical side of the question.
On the other hand we don't be.
lieve there is an intelligent citi.
zen Of the State of Missouri, ex.
cept he be an anarchist or one
with anarchistic tendencies, that
is not in fayorof the enforcement
of tine law. The vast majority of
the people too, believe that laws
are made 20 be obeyed and not TO.
be set aside for light, or trivial,
or technical reasons. What the
people demand is justice, but
they want justice tempered with
mercy, but in any event they
want the demands Of the law
satisfied.

The ReasOnableness of Woman
Suffrage.

That woman should have equal
suffrage with men seems so rea-
sonable TO the unpreiudiced
mind that it has no need of argu.
ment. The burden of proof
surely ought to be with the deni-
er of this contention.
1t is a universal proYerb that
no great man has ever been born
who did not have a great mother.
And set the wisdom of the cen.
turtles must lind it's Waterloo
when the ballot takes this field.
The old stock argument, that
woman ought not 10 have the
joint privilege with man of max.

both, because after these enact.
ments have been made she has
not the power 10 bear her part in
.hcir enforcement and defense,

LOSES PURSE WITH A
LARGE SUM OF MONEY,

About the most pleased lady in town
this morning was Mrs. j. T. Jones.
Last evening she dropped her purse IN
Second street containing a large sum
of money and some very valuable pa
'pers, but did not discover her loss I'M
til this morning. Mr.. Jones at once
came to The Republican office to insert
an ad. in the want columns, but on
reaching this office was delighted to
find that Mr.. A. c. Burns had already
been here with the purse and contents
to advertise for the owner. He at once
informed his wife who was the most
p ased and grateful person imaginable.
The young man who lost his purse con
tanning about $50 shortly after he had
gotten his pay check cashed the other
day was less fortunate, as the purse
has not yet been returned to its owner

PRESIDENT MAY HUNT
BEAR IN WYOMING.

Advices from Washington are to the
effect that President Roosevelt is plan
ming a western trip next year and that
he will probably pay a visit to Wyo-
ming and engage in a hunt in this state
for bear and other wild game, says the
Cheyenne Tribune. The trip will be
gin in June.
Roosevelt has a large number of
warm, personal friends in Wyoming
who have frequently extended invita-
tions to him to come west and enjoy
Wyoming's hospitality and it is now
thought that the president has decid-
ed to do so.
John Hoff, the old time guide and
hunter who was with Roosevelt during
his hunt in Colorado, is now located
in Big Horn county, and should Roose-
welt come to this state to hunt he will
undoubtedly form one of the party.

Oreqon Coal Mines.

Coal mining has been followed in
Oregon for the last half century. 1t
was one of the very first sections OF
the great mineral West to open up a
productive coal mine. These mines,
located near Marshield, on Coos bay,
are still producing. AS early as 1855
the mines of Coos bay shipped their
coal by schooner to San Francisco.
These mines are still beyond reach OF
the railroads and are still shipping by
water; however, the output, which
was then $4,000 tons yearly, has in
creased to more than five times that
amount.

apolis, Mimi, was tortured by ~sciatica.
The pain and suffering which he endur,
ed during this time is beyond compre-
hension. Nothing gave him any perma.
relief until he used Chamberlain's
Pain Balm. One application of that
liniment relieved the pain and made
sleep and rest possible, and less than
one bottle has effected a permanent
cure. If troubled with sciata or rheu'

Pain Balm and see for yourself how
quickly it relieves the pain. Fol sale
