Creates Sensation
In New Orleans

L. T. Cooper, the young philanthro-
pist, who, with his strange new medt-
cines has been exciting much atten-
ton from newspapers all over the
country now has New Orleans in a
storm of enthusiasm over his remark
able work. The sales of his prepar-
atoms has reached enormous figures
and the wonderful cures of stomach
trouble and rheumatism accredited to
his medicines which were at first the
subject of much conjecture have be-
come so common that their genuine
ness can no longer be doubted.
His theory that fifty per cent of the
so-called stomach trouble is due to
immense parasites, or tape worms, is
verified in nearly every case reported
Wherever he goes people bring to him
glass jars and dishes containing these
parasites which have been expelled from
their systems by his medicines. Near
Iy three hundred of these cases are re
ported from New Orleans and in al
most every instances the patient had
been unaware that his suffering was
caused by anything more than ordin-
airy stomach trouble.
Mr.. A. r. Halle, prominent bust
ness man of 1919 Carondelet street,
New Orleans, is authority for the re-
port of one of the most remarkable OF
these cases. According to his sta e
ment, Mr., Halle had been sufferer
from a severe affection of the stomach
for the past six years and had been
treated by physicians who diagnosed
his case one of tape worm but whose
treatment failed to relieve him.

HONEST PEOPLE NOT ALI DEAD

The pessimist, who, with dis
tOrted view, sees the world grow
ing daily worse, grafters and
rOgues increasing, with no hope OF
betterment, ought to take courage
when he reads this story from San
Francisco.
When the city burned, and
thousands, for the want of shelter
and food, fled their homes, there
were many without means even to
pay for their transportation.
They were Of all classes, doubt
less the greater number from the
ranks of people of moderate means
or the poor.
The railroad company issued
tickets to all, taking promises to
pay, in many instances merely
verbal.
The amount of credit thus given
by the railroad company was $50, :
900. The parties to whom the
credit was thus extended were I'M
known to the ticket agents and the
railroad company.
One would think under such
circumstances it would be easy to
evade the repayment of that sum.
But, 10, we find within this
brief period after the great fire,
that So, 900 of the $50, 900 has al
ready been repaid, and is still
coming in.
1t should give great satisfaction
to those who have not despaired
of honesty to note the example of
these smitten ones of San Francisco
many of whom had doubtless left
ali their worldly substance in
ashes at their homes within its
charred walls.
There is good, oldfashsioned
honesty among the masses of the
people, and there is a noble re-
spouse to the call of those who
want to put down graft and
thieVery wherever it emanates
from a source that can be relied
upon.

er's preparation he said: My case has
been a stubborn one and nothing I
could do seemed to alter my condition.
Several physicians treated me without
result and when Cooper's medicines
began to create so much attention 1
determined to give them a trial. The
worm which they expelled from my
system measured nearly fifty feet in
length and as soon as I was rid of the
horrible thing 1 began to improve"
Upon being asked about the attendant
symptoms he declared that they are
much similar to those of any stomach
disorder, and, variable appetite, dizzy
spells, headaches, constipation ner-
vousness and a continual languid, tired
worn out feeling being the most
common while one of the surest signs
is dark spots that appear to float be
fore the vision after STOPPING over.
1t is estimated that one hundred
thousands EbOttles of COoper's Medi-
cine have been sold during his visit in
New Orleans and judging from the
space devoted to his work by the
newspapers of that city Cooper is the
talk of the town.
l.. M. Cooper, it will be remembered
is the man who created such turmoil
in st. Louis a short time ago, where he
is said to have sold nearly a quarter
million bottles of his preparations.
AT Dodson's Pharmacy the local
agency fol- CoOper's medicines it is
said that the sale of his two remedies,
Cooper's New Discovery and Cooper S

and that the most gratifying reports
have been received from those who

IT IS pitiful to note the crlnglng OF
brave men to political boss, all because
that sometime they think they may want
something themselves. The spirit or
patriotism cannot long survive IN such
mems hearts The way to be good re-
publican or democrat is to stand up in
an independent manner and proclaim the
right of Individual judgment in politics,
the same as in religion In politics we
must keep our eye constantly on the
compass card of fixed principles. When
any political leader sets up his will and
says the many must follow him, he must
show above all that first principles are
at stake; that the public welfare is con-
cerned. Ii that is evident, the people
will follow him, but no leader can safely
bank on the proposition that his will
must be taken for the popular will.
Right here have thousands of able lead
ers been irretrievably wrecked.-Fort

FAILURE that is the result of the self
government experiment in Cuba. In
spite of the favorable conditions that
surrounded the new republic, it has fall
On, perhaps never to rise again. No one
con tell what the future has in store for
Cuba. but recent events make it certain
that government at present is abso
lutely impossible. The Cubans are not
fit for self-government. They seem not
to know what true liberty means. They
seem not to understand the obligations
which self-government imposes upon
every citizen. In such circumstances,
nothing but failure was possible for the
republic" The result of all is interven-
ton by the United States. Life and
property must be protected in Cuba and
it is the United States that must pro-
vide this protection. Wisely or not, when
the Cuban republic was established we
reserved the right to interfere ii neces-
sity for interference arose, and now that
that emergency has come we can not
shirk the responsibility that we imposed
upon ourselves. We must go ahead and
do what is right by the Cubans and by
ourselves Whether that means per-
manent retention of authority in Cuba,
no one can tell.-Milwankee Journal.

More Swindlers on Rural Routes.

The farmer is always getting it. They
are again victims of gross frauds. A few
men have been reaping a rich harvest by
going through the country representing
themselves as government agents and
telling the farmers that the government
will not deliver them their mail unless
their boxes are numbered. The farmer,
not knowing that it is a fraud, readily
falls into the trap aud pays the fee of %
cents, so cents or whatever the case may
be- The rogues, however, made one Sc
rious mistake and that was in not being
familiar with the plumbers to go on the
boxes. A number of the farmers be-
came suspicious and reported the matter
to the postal authorities. A strict watch
is being kept and should the men be ap-
pretended it will GO hard with them, for
your Uncle will not trifie with those who
violate the postal laws.

The Democrats of Colorado have nom
mated Alva Adams for governor. Two
years ago Mr.. Adams was the Demo
cratic nominee. He was elected by a
majority of 10000 votes and inaugurated.
The legislature, which was Republican,
declared that James Ell. Peabody had
been elected Peabody was sworn in
and resigned, the lieutenant governor,
Mcdonald, succeeding to the office.
There we're few Republican legislators
that baked at seating Peabody and they
refused to join in declaring him govern
or until he pledged himself to resign and
turn the office over to Mcdonald.
Though Adams was swindled out of the
office, he counseed moderation. He re-
tired from the office to which he had
been elected and Mcdonald, who had
not received single vote for the office
of governor, was installed, earning the
contempt of honest men of all parties.
