EASY TO MIX THIS.
Prepare 1t at Home By Shak-
ing Well in a Bottle.

What will appear very interesting
to many people here is the article
taken from New York daily paper,
giving a simple prescription, as Tor
INFLATED by noted authority, who
claims that he has found a positive
remedy to cure almost any case Of
backache or kidney or bladder de-
rangement, in the following simple
prescription, if taken before the
stage of Brights disease: .
Fluid Extract Dandelion, 0ne-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one
ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsapa-
rilla three ounces. Shake we'll in a
bottle and take in teaspoonful doses
after each meal and again at bed
time.
A well-known druggist here at
home, when asked regarding this
prescription, stated that the ingre-
dients are all harmless, and can be
obtained at a small cost from any
good prescription pharmacy, or the
mixture would be put up If asked to
do so. He further stated that while
this prescription is often prescribed
in rheumatic Affections with splen-
did results, he could see no reason
why it would not be a splendid
remedy for kidney and urinary
troubles and backache, as it has a
peculiar action upon the kidney
structure, cleansing these most i'm
portant organs and helping them to
sift and filter from the blood the
foul acids and waste matter winch
cause sickness and suffering. Those
of our readers who suffer can make
no mistake in giving it IA trial.

; What State Editors are Saying
A Governors PerfidY-

/
In another column will be found
the story of the action of Gov. Brow.
ard towards the people of Dade
county.
Its full significance will be learned
as time goes on.
Two things stand out most promi-
nently; one, that BrowRrd has
broken his spoken and written word
to the democrats of this county.
The other is that he has dealt u
staggering blow to the primary sys-
tenn.
OF what use is it to hold primaries
If the officer who was elected on IL
democratic platform which compels
him to abide by the decision OF the
primaries, will not carry out his own
solemn pledges?
Why did not Broward make the
appointments in the first place with
out putting candidates and the peo-
pie to the unnecessary expense of
holding primary, thus saving Il
shred of his honor?
The governor has taken very
strained Interpretation of an ambigu-
Gus section of the law as an excuse
not to nominate the successful can
didate to the judgeship. He has APP
pointed man who in the first pri-
mary did not receive one fourth of
the votes cast, passing over the head
OF II man who made good showing
III the second primary. He appoint
ed Il man who made "a solemn pledge
not to accept the office unless he
should secure the approval of the
people at a primary. He has APP
pointed man who, if he accepts the
nomination, must necessarily break
that word.
The governor has dragged the er-
mine OF the bench in the dust and
has made the court as well as him
self an object of contempt.-Miami

The Real Point, at Issue

Let's leave out the question as to
whether prohibition prohibits, or
not. What the prohibitionists ask
is to have the sale of liquor OUT
LAWED. 1t is known that liquor
is an evil and a curse. Instead of
permitting the sale under licence,
OUTLAW it. Then the sellers of
liquor, instead of being wards of the
law, will be dodgers and violators of
law. Prohibition makes the seller
of liquor II lawbreaker. 1t puts him
on the defensive. 1t puts him in the
dock with brawlers, and thugs,
and swindlers. Stripped of the laws
protection, under license, his posi-
ton as a business man d is taken
away from him; his influence in
politics in made nothing; his cata-
log of friends dwindles. The licens-
ed saloon must gO.-Monticello News.

Trade Conditions Point To-
ward Prosperity.

In the existing conditions there is
nothing that portends a serious set
| back. The bank transactions in all
the great centers except New York
! are above those of any previous year,
and in New York they are dimin-
| ished by the lull in speculation,
which in itself is good sign. Rail
road earnings and foreign trade are
far in excess of all past figures, and
the general tendency in each is up
ward. On the Great Lakes the traf-
fic- is breaking all records. The
heavy gains in our imports of mer-
chandise remind us that though our
factories and workshops of all sorts
are producing more goods than ever
before, they are falling far short of
the home demand This compels
our people to look abroad for lar
ger and larger portion of the things
which they need. From 1900 to 1907,
while the country's population has
grown fifteen per cent, its pig-iron
output has increased 100 per cent,
and its steel production has expand
ed l20 per cent.
Our bank clearings, railroad earn
ings, foreign trade, and increase in
iron and steel production are trust
worthy barometer of general business
conditions. In general way, the
expansion in iron and steel produc-
ton measures the growth in most of
our great activities. Yet, as the in
crease in our imports show, the pur-
chasing power of our people, as
measured by the things they buy
abroad and at home, has increased
in a still larger ratio. Across all
our activities prosperity is writing
its autograph in bold hand. 1t is
crowding every vessel from New
York and all the other large Allan
tic ports, far beyond all previous sea-
sous, with European tourists, while
at the same time the "See-America-
First, "eXcursionists are putting the
railways facilities to a new test all
over the country.-From why |
Prosperity Will Continue" by Jas.

tional Association of Manufacturers, |

Editor Hcpes to be Forgiven

The Evening Record was strong
supporter of n. B. Broward when he
was a candidate before the state pri-
mary for the office of governor.
1t did strenuous work at that time
in the belief that it was recommend
ing to the people of the state an
honest, able man who would make a
great governor.
Since his Inauguration the Eve
ming Record has watched the COVER
uor's course more in sadness than in
anger.
He has not come up to the full
measure of the man that this paper
and other misguided individuals
thought him to be.
He has not fulfilled a pledge that
he made to the people, and has sys-
tematically turned down the friends
who supported him, for the men who
fought him.
These few remarks are called out
by the recent cold slap that the gov
ernor has administered to Dade
county.
When the governor was making
his canvas, he was very liberal with
his promises of what he would do for
his friends in this county.
Over and over again they were re-
minded that he was to be governor
and that they would be recognized.
Since he took office he has not
made an appointment among his real
friends here, but has invariably con-
ferred honors on men who cOnsis-
tently opposed him, with the sole
exception OF the recent appointment
which was made from a faction that
has been totally discredited and
spewed out by the voters of Dade.
The evil men do, we are told, lives
after them. The mistakes men
make often rise up to injure them.
For its share in intlictlng Broward
on the state of Florida this paper
duly apologies, and hopes to be
forgiven.-Miami Evening Record.

A Sure Sign of Ability

Editor Matthews says that he has
no misgivings as to the stability OF
that gubernatorial platform he re-
Gently constructed, but the height OF
it is what gives him stage fright
That's another good reason for say
ing that the editor of the Telegraph
would adorn his platform. Stage
fright goes most often with real
ability and is the forerunner of sue
cess. The pert chap, full of conf
dence in himself, is rarely troubled
with stage fright at the outset of his
career, and just as rarely does that
career rise above the commonplace.
