Washington, Aug. 25.-Letters re- ceived by the War Department from commanders of artillery posts and per sons who desire to visit such posts in dcate that the recent order concern ing the admission of visitors to posts has not been fully understood by com mandants.
 For years admission to posts was denied to all civilians who did not have an order from the Secretary of War. This precaution seemed ridiculous in many cases and especially at posts where the fortlfications could easily be seen from hotels and from passing ships.
 Consequently the order was so amended that commandants of artillery posts are permitted to exercise their discretion and issue orders to visitors whom they do not deem objectionable

Save Your Kidneys

The chief cause of Kidney Trouble are
uric acid poisons that accumulate in the sys-
TEN by reason Of over-work and errors of
diet. When these poisons are abundant in
the blood in their ordinary form, they clog
the circulation in the kidneys, cause scant
and highly colored urine, frequent and pain
sui unnation, kidney disease and bladder
trouble. When they are thrown out of the
blood back into the tissues they allow the
urine TO become free and clear, but cause
muscular soreness, rheumatism, backache,
etc, and strong tendency to future trouble.
NATAL. these plain facts in mind it is easy
WIFI to understand why the socalled
kidney remedies, lithia, mineral waters,
etc, do so little permanent good. They un-
doubtedly make the urine free and clear by
driving the poisons back into the tissues.

W. II. Thompson of Grand Island has been

gresham, and general democratic cam

is to be a democratic senator Mr.. Thomp-
son desires to be that man. Instead of SUD-
hitting the issue to the democratic state
convention Mr.. Hitchcock proposes a free
for all race of democratic asprants under
that provision of the Nebraska constitution
which permits candidates for United States
senator to place their names on the Official
ballot and receive the preference vote of the
electors at the polls-the one receiving the
greatest number of preference ballots to

There is still another significant circum-
stance in connection. Douglas county, the
home of Mr. Hitchcock, casts one-eighth of
the entire vote of the state and chooses
twelve members Of the legislature. Owing
to the inability Of Douglas county republi-
cans to agree upon a candidate satisfactory
to the rest OF the state there is "a prospect

ION the other hand, Mr.. Thompson dis

Not Bound hx an Oath.

Some years ago, when Attorney Gen.
eral Moody was district attorney in
Essex county, an arson case was tried,
in which the late Hon. H. w. Moulton
was one of the counsel for the defense.
Among the witnesses for the prose-
cution was a boy, who testified that a
little after nine o'clock, short time
previous to the discovery of the fire,
he saw the defendant not far from the
building in which it started. Being
asked, on cross-examination, how he
was so sure of the time, he replied
that he looked at clock as he came
out of a store and saw that it was nine
o'clock.
Then he was asked If it was Gus
tomary for boys of his age to look at
clocks to see at what time they lef:
any store they happened to visit
He answered.: my father told me
to be home before nine o'clock, and
thought would see how late it was.
Then" said Mr.. Moulton, 1--WE are
to believe that you are no nearer tell
ing the truth now than you were then
