Weak
Heart Action

There are certain nerves
that control the action
of the heart. When they
become weak, the heart
action is impaired. Short
breath, pain around heart,
choking sensation, palpi-
tation, futtering, feeble
or rapid pulse, and other
distressing symptoms fol-
low. DR.. Miles Heart Cure
is a medicine especially
adapted to the needs Of
these nerves and the mus
cular structure of the
heart itself. It is .
strengthening tonic that
brings speedy relief.
Try it.
For years I suffered with what !
thought was stomach trouble, when
the doctors told me I had heart
trouble. l had tried many remedies,
when the DR.. Miles almanac came
into my hands, and I concluded to
try DR.. Miles Heart Cure. have

Missouri needs q moses right
now. You q and ought to be
that Moses. What the Missouri
spirit needs today is a bold man,
who il afraid of nothing; who
is ready to take a sledgehammer
and break conventionaiit.es to
flinders. What does the yearn-
ing spirit OF Missouri care for
this fraudulent primary? Shall
the fraud OF these scoundrels and
these rotten conditions OF the
cities put IA conventional stumbl-
ing block in the onward march of
the great spirit Of Missouri? If
necessary, get Gov. Folk to call
a special session OF the Legis.a-
ture to authorize independent
independent candidates. Any
way, where there is a Democrat
ic will there is q Democratic way
The right of resolution always
exists. Missouri is now suffering
more and more grievous wrongs
from election thieves than our
forefathers ever suffered from
King George. They declared their
independence and supported it-by
a successful revolution. Are Mis-
souriana worthy sons OF these
| sires? They certainly are, but
they need "a leader. They need a
man to issue a declaration of
independence from the election
thieves of these cities. The psy-
Geological moment is mere. Strike
the match and you will see a con-
flagration-a moral, wholesome
comlagration of righteous indig-
nation-that will make election
thievery forever Ia thing OF the
past in Missouri, and will make
you governor. Don't say you can
not. We Missour.ans ARE chatting
under this situation, and we are
watching and hoping that you
will do something great.

Good One on Marshall.

Sweet Springs people are tell
ing a good joke at our expense.
Fred Eisen, with RenkeH's fur
niture store came to Marshall
recently and brought his lunch
along, leaving it with a bottle
Of whiskey in the buggy at
the livery stable. When ready
to return he found his lunch miss
ing and the whiskey untouched.
He thinks our people don't know
good whiskey anymore Since
the town went dry. He is troub-
ed with a stomach disorder and
keeps the whisKey handy for an
emergency, he says.

The Marshall Republican is
far from being our ideal OF a
model country paper, but it's
about the best that we're able to
publish at $1.OO a year and we
do not think it good business
judgment to raise the price and
quality to $50, especially since
we frequently have this paper
compared with some zoe competi-
tor. Most persons base the val
ue OF a paper upon its size, in
stead OF the quality and cost OF
the news In issuing 1t. This
paper is the most extensively
issued in Saline county. 1t is not
thrown together accidentally
We have FORTY correspondents
who cover the county from one
end to the other; we constantly
publish q high-class serial-some-
thing u competitors do not do ;
we have a good office force and
the Republican usually pre- ents a
very attractive, workmanlike
APP earance, for which no aplog'es
are necessary.
The fact that it has the larE-
est circulation in the county is
worth something in that it keeps
you in touch with the people OF
the entire county. Our aim is
always to make the paEer worth
a dollar by saving you two dol
lars-there'a where the timely
advertising comes in if taken
advantage Of.
1t is a watchdog in public af-
fairs and lit is safe t. say that
hundreds OF dollars are saved to
taxpayers because OF its watch
Iful presence.
There's no question about you
needing a county paEer-what
we want you to do is to use good
Judgment in selecting it see that
you get value for value. Article

Icheap news-no cost or work for
the editor; easy work for the
printers; plate matter is still
cheaper; and promiscuous med
lcine and general advertising Is
the limit" If your paper is

N. +. Heitman, OF the Civic
League, Kansas City, sent a let
ter to David A. Ball recently, in
which he declares Ball was NOM
mated for Governor If only hon
est votes had been counted at
the August primary. He called
on Mr.. Ball to become an indepen-
dent candidate for governor and
make the race as a reblke to
election stealing. His letter Is
especially interesting las show
in how the better class OF citizens
feel about dishonest elections,
In part Mr.. Heitman's letter
says:
| have observed with much
pleasure your resolute determi-
nation to expose the election
thieves i'm st. Louis and Kansas
City who stole from you the nom
nation for governor. Consider
ing only the honest ballots, you
were unquestionably nominated.
The returns show that the moral
yearning OF the rural commun-
tiles concentrated itself on you,
Your $4,000 votes and Wal!ace's
5000 votes represent the OPP
position to the "old guard"
Cowherd stands for the sold
guard" The spirit OF Missouri
is opposed to the "oid guard"
A large majority OF the honest
temperance, law-loving Demo
Gratis agree that Mr.. Cowherd for
governor Is mot what they want.
| Why wait -four years for it? This
is an age OF new discovery, not
only in THE material world, but
also in the moral world, Missou-
ri in h9O4 discovered how to APP
lply moral force to the uplift OF
her political conditions, Just as
the men Of this generation have
Undiscovered how to apply steam
and electricity to the upbuild-
Ing OF their material ccndi-
ttons.

The election In Vermont on Sep"
TENDER LIST resulted in a Repubii-
can plurality OF about 10000,
rather below the average. 1t is
the first election OF Importance
held and Is looked upon as an In
dication OF the national outcome.
While the returns are not very
favorable TO Republican margin
next November, I'VE believe too
that the entire Eastern states
will show a Republican falling
off, while the west will show a
gain. Missouri Is quite enthusi-
astic over Bryan. but II he dosen't
pull hard the rest OF the ticket
will fall very short. Cowherd
has poor prospects for election
under present Indications.

Still Accepting Bouquets.

1T is strange" remarked Mr.. Squig-
gins to his grandson Horace, what "a
fascination chorus girls exercise upon
such young noodles as yourself. Take
a woman as homely as a Bingham
umbrella and put her in the back row
of the chorus, where she hasn't a
thing to do except draw her breath
and her salary, and the first thing
you know a lot of foolish boys are
sending her flowers, mash notes and
jewelry and begging her to come out
to sample hot birds and fizz bottles.
Pom my word, It's a queer thing--this
glamour of stage life"
"But grandpa" said Horace, 1.-The
actresses of the present day are far
more fascinating than they were when
you were a lad, 40 years ago"
Not much, my boy! There are
many on the stage now with whom !
was acquainted in my youthful days"

WORLDS NEED OF STRONG MEN.
Should Be Better Than tho Genera.
tons of the Past.

Some of us are disposed to be salts
fed if we can be pretty nearly as
good as the men of the last genera
ton. That will not do at all. The
men of this generation have got to
be a great deal better men-bigger,
broader, sounder, keener, drawer.
mcmillan their fathers were. If
they are not they will be swamped
with the business of the world in
their hands. The entire ethical
standard of financial life is being,
and must be, lifted up. We cannot
do the enormously increased bust
ness of the world to-day on the moral
plane where we were living 25 years
Ago.. If we attempt 1t we shall plunge
ourselves in chaos. We have got to
have higher principles of justice and
equality and clearer notions of finan'
cial integrity, and stronger convictions
of fidelity to trusts, and a deeper SENSE
of the business responsibility of every
man to the whole community.-Wash

Writing interesting letters doesn't
come naturally to me, and there are a
good many people with whom l must
keep in touch through letters, If at all.
So I have got into the way Of keeping
a notebook and jotting down in it brief
notes to remind me of little bits of
news that will specially interest my
different correspondents. l even jot
down a little joke sometimes, says
Home Chat. Then, when spare time
m to write my letters my notes
are ready to hand, and the interest.
ing scraps of news don't go flying
away directly I put my pen to paper,
as they used to do. Everybody tells
me my letters are much more inter.
esting than they used to be. If SO,

THE city election occurs on next
Tuesday. Be sure and vote the
ticket which you think is fer the
best interests of the people. In
city elections craftsmanship counts
for nothing. City officials have
nothing to do with the political
issues. They are merely chosen
to govern the city pass such or
daninces as will promote the well
fare of the citizens, enforce them
and maintain the peace. None OF
the political Issues which marx
the line between Republicans ano
Democrats are even remotely
effected or acted upon by city
officials. Therefore leaving poll.
tics out of the question, it is up te
the citizens to vote for and cleo
the best men possible for alder
men and other city officers. Where
politics interferes with what yor
want in city officers, forget poll
tics and vote for the men tina
your judgement tells you are thu
right men for the place. Let tn
best men win.

coUNrRv's NEEDS SET FORTH.
Wall Street Journal Advocates Re.
turn to Old Conditions.

The following editorial from the
Wall Street Journal is somewhat re-
markable, appearing in a purely fnan-
cial paper, and is certainly worthy Of
serious consideration:
What America needs is a revival
of piety, the kind mother and father
used to have-piety that counted it
good business to stop for daily family
prayer before breakfast, right in the
middle of harvest; that quit field work
a half hour early Thursday night so as
to get the chores done and go to
prayer meeting; that borrowed money
to pay the preachers salary and
prayed fervently in secret for the sal
walton of the rich man who looked
with scorn on such unbusinesslike be-
havior. That's what we need now to
clean this country Of the filth of graft,
and Of greed, petty and big; Of wor.
ship Of fine horses and big lands and
high Office and grand social functions,
What is this thing we are wor.
decayed nations fell down and wor
SHIPPED Just before their light went
out? Read the history Of Rome In de-
cay and you will find luxury there
that could lay a big dollar over ouI
little doughnut that looks SO large tc
us. Great wealth made a ma
ton substantial nor honorable. There
Is nothing on earth that looks good
that is SO dangerous for a man or ma
ton to handle as quick, easy, bis
money. If you do resist its deadly in
fluences the chances are that 1t viii
get your son. It takes greater ant
finer heroism to dare to be poor IL
America than to capture . battery IL
! Manchuria."
