A PEACE PROPOSITION

In q discussion Of political affairs
in the republican party in Iowa The
Dubuque Herald, democratic paper
published at the home of Senator ALI
son, says there are very many Cum
Minis republicans who would refuse TO
oppose Allison for re election even in
support Of Cummins; and that senti-
ment argues strongly in favor of con
tinuing Allison in the senate until he
is removed by death. That paper then
says the way for peace is opened in
the proposal to nominate Cummins
for Vice President: that he is ambi-
tious and will not submit to retirement
at the expiration Of his term as GOV
ernor. that his friends insist on push.
ing him higher up and IL they can
nominate him for Vice President they
will consent TO the reelection of Ali
son as Senator. A stand-patter who
read the suggestion Of The Herald
said it would surely be go if they
would include Major Lacey for GOV.

THE HABIT OF SAVING.

Every young man should form the

less he saves some part of his earn.

his own exertions should commence
saving early in life. II he fails to do
this he viii probably be poor as long

gar seems but small expense but one
day for year means an expense OF

moderate indulgence, but if the fifteen

Sues For Peace.

Sues For Peace.
Col Lafe Young's sickness seems
to have have had Modifying influ-
ence upon his disposition. He returns
to his work but not with the same vim
and pugnacity, Perhaps he repented
of his political sins and promised to
be good if permitted to live and get
we'll. There has evidently been n
marked change as indicated in the
following article under the caption
LET Us HAVE PEACE.
Anti.monopoly legislation promised
by the progressives seems To have been
enacted. At any rate. they claim that
they kept their promises; and the tar
If question having been completely
abandoned by the progreSsives we
can see no good reason for continu-
ance of the factional spirit which has
grown up in the republican party in
this state. We lave been unable to
discover on the part of the standpat-
tiers any disposition TO go ahead with
the quarrel. The governor OF the
state having the Office for seven
years, and having Witnessed the per-
Torrance Of everything recommended
in his message ought to now be in
favor OF peace. At any rate, the
standpatters say they would like TO
have decent standing in the party
They are tired of being hOycotted
They can see no good reason for q
continuance OF the boycott. Some
correspondents are saying that the
standpatters cannot be trusted even
to be delegates TO conventions. but we
can hardly believe that they mean I'M
der the circumstances TO continue the
battle. and shall hope for better things.
The triumphant element OF the party
have been calling the standpatters
hard names and pronouncing them
ga dangerous clement for several
years. Is il not time that these
things should cease? Is not the bat
tie over? What more is there to be
done? Are there heads to punch?
Principles seem to have dropped out.

we use four packages a week. You
are welcome to use this testimonial as
you see fit"
The reason this lady was helped by
the use of Grape-Nuts food. is that it
is predigested by natural processes
and therefore does not tax the -stom-

also contains the elements required
for building up the nervous system. If
