Not only has he partially tafned

A good many people get mad when you tell them they've got dyspepsia, hut way down deep in their stomachs they know they've got it.
 "rd love to eat it, but I can't" Is one kind of dyspepsia.
 T hate to think of it," is another kind. There are thousands of people today who hate their meals, and love them at the same time. They haven't that fine empty-hungry eat-everyth ing insight kind of feeling which goes with every good strong healthy stom- ach. That's because they have dys- pepsia. And then there are others whose mouths don't water at meal time or at any other time. They sit at the table and go through the mo- tions. only because it's time to eat. These people. too. are dyspeptics.

 During the past few days great many men frd all parts of ths, South have drifted into Montgomery looking for work and as many of them have been unable to secure it. they have ap- piled to the police and Salvation Army for relief. The most of these men come from the Birmingham district. where they have been thrown out of work by the mills and other industries closing down.
 The Salvation Army gave beds to twelve of these men in 6 night Each one of them stated that they had been making good money up until few weeks ago, and as there was no chance to secure a position in Birmingham, that they came to Montgomery.

STRENUOUS PASTOR
Knocked OutTwO Armed Cow
boys, Then Took Them
TO Church.

Hays, S. D., April 1.-THE Rev.
John McVey the well-known mission
airy, who is working among the set
tiers in the Bald river country, sound
ly whipped two burly cowboys, George
Carney and Fred Temple, because
they tried to compel him to take
drink of whiskey after he had de-
clined to do so.
The minister is college man from
the East, and used to be a foot
ball player, boxer and all-around ath-
lete. He was on his way to a ranch
to hold a religious meeting when the
two cowboys, who had sworn to pre-
vent the meeting, waylaid him, hand
ed over a bottle of whiskey and told
him to drink it. He declined, where
upon they sought to force the liquor
down his throat Within five min
utes the pastor had, with his bare
fists, knocked out both men and taken
from one of them a revolver which
had been drawn in the struggle.
Carney got up and shook hands with
the missionary. Temple was ugly
after his licking, and threatened TO
shoot McVey on sight. Carney, how
ever, seized him by the throat and
made him apologize to the mission
airy, shake hands and promise to treat
him right" in the future. Then the
three men mounted their cayuses and
together rode on to the ranch where
the meeting was to be held.
At the meeting Temple told how

TIPS SOUTHERN MAN
For DemOCraCy's Presidential
Candidate Next Time.
.BRYANS WISE SUGGESTIONS.
Time Has Passed When Sec
tiOnal Argument is
Effective"

William ]. Rryan's Commoner in its
latest issue devotes its first page to
an editorial urging the national De-
mocracy to consider a Southern man
as its candidate for the presidency
in 1908. The Commoner says:
There is considerable talk just
now of a Southern candidate fol
the presidency, and there is no reas-
on why a Southern candidate should
not be considered upon the same bas-
is as candidates from the Northern
States.
1.-The time has passed when the
sectional argument is effective. In
the st. Louis convention of 1904 Mr..
Bryan insisted that Senator Cockrell,
though a Confederate soldier, would
Doll more votes than the Northern can
didate, whose position upon public
questions was in doubt or whose po-
sition, if known, was out of har-
mony with the opinions of the menu
bers of his party.
by all means let the Southern
States men be considered; let them
stand side by side with their North
ern brethren, and let the choice fall
upon the man who, no matter where
he lives, best represents the aspira-
tons of the party and best reflects
the desires of Democratic voters.
mo candidate should be urged mere
ly because he comes from the North
from the West. Local pride is very
much over-estimated asset in a cam
paign Comparatively few decide pub
lie questions on that basis. New
York and Indiana, being doubtful
States for many years, claimed the
candidates on the ground that local
popularity would turn the elections,
but 1t has been found that the move
ments which elect or defeat candi-
dates are wider than State boundaries.
Let Southern candidates be pre-
sented upon their merits. Let them
be brought forward as champions of
Democratic ideas and they will find
the North ready to listen. Gov. Hoke
Smith, of Georgia, won his cam
paign by attacking railroad influ-
ence In politics and by demanding
regulation. Gov. Cromer won his fight
