They Stand Alone.

Standing ont in bold relief, 1JL alO,,4,
and as a conspicuous example of open,
frank and honest dealing with the sick
and afflicted, are DIR. Pierce's Fayorite
prescription for weak, over-worked, de-
ranLeG lom nervous, nrrun,doWn pain
Medical, Discovery, the famous remedy
Tor weak stomach, Indigestion, or dys-
pepsia, torpid Iva, or biliOnsness, all
catarrhal affections whether Of the
stomach, bowels, kidneys, bladder, nasal
passages, thloat, bronchia, or other mu-
cous passages, also as an effective remedy
Tor al diseases arising from thin, watery
OF impure Dlood, as scrofulous and skin
Each bottle Of the above medicines
bears upon its wrapper q badge OF hon
esty in the full list of ingredients COM
posing. Imprinted IN plain Es1glish.
This frank and open publicity places
these medicines IN q class all by them
setves, and is the best guaranty Of their
merits. They cannot be classed as patent
nor secret medicines for they are neither
being Of k'ao,O9l composition.
. Or. Pierce feels that he can afford to
take the afflicted into his full confidence
and lay all the ingredients of his medi-
cines freely before them because these
Ingredients are such as are endorsed and
most strongly praised by scores Of the
ElOSV CuluOuO uculCdl WTlJeTS dS cures
for the diseases for which these medi-
cines are recommended. Therefore, the
afflicted do not have to rely alone upon
DR.. Pierce's recommendation as to the
curative value of his medicines for Ger.
tain easily recognized diseases.
A glance at the printed formula on
each bottle will show that no alcohol and
no harmful or habit forming drugs enter
into DR.. Pierce's medicines, they being
wholly compounded of glyceric extracts
Of the roots of native, American forest
plants. These are best and safest for
the cure of most lingering, chronic dis
eases. DR.. R. Y. Pierce can be consulted
FREE, by addressing him at Buffalo,
N. Y, and all communications are re-
garded as sacredly confidential.
1t, is as easy to be we'll as i'll and
much more comfortable. Constipation is
the cause of many forms of illness. DR..
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure constipa-
ton. They.are tiny, sugar-coated gran
ules. One little vPellet " is gentle 1axa-
tive, two a mild cathartic. All dealers in
medicines sell them.

here and there over-the state, no
enthusiasm has been aroused.
1T Is now argued that there will
be "plenty doing" before election,
but we doubt it.
The trouble with this cam
paign is that there is no issue.
Mr.. Cole tried to make drainage
an issue, and Mr.. Johnson pro-
claimed himself a drainage man;
the present governor builded him
a strong railroad rate regulation
plank, and Mr.. Cole put one in
his platform just like it, or a
lutte better. The contest has
developed into a fight for office
between two men, either one Of
whom would be able and honest,
and either one of whom would be
an honor to the state as CHEF
executive. You cannot get the
voters stirred up in this kind of a
campaign; it is a drama without
plot, or action, or heart interest.
Whether this Indifference
BODIES better for one candidate
than the other is a question for
those who for ell election results.
1t probably will help one candi.
date in one place and the other
candidate in another, while it
will hurt both materially.

The Crested Rat.

The crested rat of East Africa is re-
markable, first because of the great
length of the black and white hairs
down the ridge of the back, which are
rendered the more conspicuous because
the hairs along the sides of the body
are 50 short and so differently colored,
being brownish gray and looking for
all the world as if some one had taken
pair Of scissors and maliciously shorn
off the decorative hair, leaving only a
dull underfur. Secondly, it Is remark
able because the skull has roofing of
bones exactly resembling that of some
turtles, while, furthermore, this roof
has granulated appearance recalling
that presented by the skulls Of certain
fishes. In it's habits it appears to be
arboreal while from the structure of it's
teeth it would appear to be at least
partly insectivorous.

The light sentence imposed on
the abscopding bank president,
Stensland-ten years, which
means seven years, with good
behavior-calls to mind a new
vaudeville joke, or is it an old
one? 'What is banker?" asks
one funny man. "A banker, "
answers his friend, sis a man
who takes your money" "He is
like burglar, them" "Oh no;
a burglar is a thief, while a
banker is only dishonest"

"NOTHIN' D0IN'."

The present state campaign
bids fair to 60 down in history as
one of the most apathetic in
years. Everybody knows that
an election is to be held in
November, and everybody knows
that two estimable gentlemen
are anxious to be governor, but
how the election goes; which
man gets into Office, nobody
seems to care enough to get ex.
cited about it.
The apathy started light after
the republican state convention.
Mr.. Cole was tired out with q
strenuous pre-convention cam
paign and wanted rest. So he
retired to the quiet of his Walker
home and nothing was done all
summer. And as the weeks
went by interest in things politi.
cal died out.
This condition was noticeable
at the time, but it was pointed
out that things would be lively
enough when the campaign was
formally opened. Time went by
and the campaign was opened,
but aside from q little interest

roads to the end that such charges be
limited to reasonable return on the
value Of such railways regardless of

Issues and that complaints from pa
tron OF such common carrier be given
speedy and adequate attention and
prompt relief granted.
That we commend most heartily the
Idea OF celebrating the fftieth ami
versary OF Minnesota's entering the
sisterhood Of states, and we recon-
mend that the legislature make such
appropriation as may be necessary to
defray the expenses Of commemora-
tfon which in its character and extent
will be in keeping with the moral In
tellectual and material growth and I'M
portance Of our beloved common
wealth.
We endorse the able administration
of the Office of Public Examiner p. M.
Kerst.
We heartily commend Labor Com
missioner William H. Williams for his
~ in the enforcement of laws against
child labor.
We favor liberal appropriations for
the drainage OF state lands, along prac-
Iical lines, and as the demand for
such lands warrant
We declare ourselves unalterably in
favor OF a fat 2-cent passenger rate
on all railroads throughout the state
of Minnesota.
Would Prohibit Passes.
We favor the passage of law by
the state legislature prohibiting the
issuance of passes to all persons 9TH
er than bonafide railroad employees.
We recommend the adoption of the
proposed constitutional amendment
relating to taxation.
Resolved, That we strongly condemn
the Republican party of this state for
its failure to fnaugurate a forestry
policy that would have allowed the
harvesting of all suitable timber, but
so control cuttings and protect from
fire that the state would now have
u
memories of forests that once covered
the present treeless wastes, upon
which no crop but timber can be
grown profitably. The Democratic
party pledges itself to do all in it's
power, governed by reason, good judg-
/, ment and practicability, to right this
great wrong, so far as possible, by
Judicially administering the forest
areas on the state lands that are I'M
adapted to agriculture.
We point with just satisfaction to
the administration of the Office by
Hon. T. D. O'Brien, insurance commits
sioner of Minnesota; not only has he
performed every duty imposed upon
him by his oath of Office, but he has
demonstrated so high a sense of civic
service that he has in special mes
sage to congress been publicly thanked
by Theodore Roosevelt, president of
the United States Governor John
sons activity in promoting the inter-
ests of the assured is added cause for
congratulation, and the Democracy Of
Minnesota declares In no uncertain
terms its complete satisfaction with
the services of its public officials in
connection with these important mat
ters.
Renewing our faith in the judgment,
patriotism and intelligence of the
people we submit this declaration of
principles and abide the results.
