club banquet held at Convention
hall in Kansas City Monday
night March 80.
The number of banqueters was
about 1000 while the attendance
of spectators was estimated at
5000 making a total attendance
of 10000. The speakers were
Hon. Judson Harmon of Ohio,
prominently spoken of as a prob
able Democratic nominee for
vice. e.president, and Hon. VIM. j.
Bryan of Nebraska whom the
Democrats are almost sure to
nominate for president, and in
whose honor the banquet was
given.
The galleries were 90 eager to
hear Mr.. Bryan that Mr.. Hor.
! mon was compelled to sit down
before he finished his speech,
which was partially due to the
fact that he was un able to make
himself heard. Mr.. Harmon
said he was impaled on the horns
of dilemma, for if he spoke be-.
fore Mr.. Bryan they would not
hear him through, and if he
spoke after Mr.. Bryan he didn't
have any audience, aud that
seems to have been about the
size of it at Kansas City Mon
day night.

speak he was given q cordial

three or four minutes. He be-
gan his speech by expressing re-.
gret that the audience would not
allow Mr.. Harmon to finish his
speech, and next referred to the
banquet as being largest he ever
attended and said that 80 far as
he knew it waa the largest ever
held on American soil. He then
referred to T. T. Crittenden, Jr.,
the Democratic nominee for
mayor of Kansas City, in the
most complimentary terms, and
predicted his election next Tues.
day.
In his speech proper Mr..
Bryan made a brilliant effort as
statesman, as he always does,
and set forth line of principles
which every true American,
who has the good of the masses
as against the classes at heart,
can conscientiously endorse. He
ridiculed the idea of reform in
the ranks of the Republican
party and proved it by their past
record and present attitude on
public issues. He said the only
hope held out to the people to
bring about the needed reforms
in revising the tariff and routing
the trusts was in the election of
Democratic president and q
Democratic congress.
We regret we have not the
space to 60 more into details.
Suffice to say that it was a great
speech by the greatest living
American and was enjoyed in
the highest degree by every
Democrat that heard it and made
every Republican who heard
it or read it squirm like a worm
on hot griddle.

M. Dockery and Gov. J. w. Folk
as delegates. at-large to the
next national Democratic con.
vention, that the co n.
vention would be held in Chi.
cago.
Mr.. Zillman corrects us and
Iimparts the information that the
| convention will be held in Den

81 thought Charlton county
went dry not long ago."
mat IS true, MT. Gilman, Dut
the 'drying" does not begin IN.
til April IA and it will not be en-.
tirely "dry" until August 16,
those being the range of dates

After this explanation Mr..

how we happened to locate the

at Chicago instead Of Denver.

THE BRIGHT SIDE

of life. It is a feeling common
to the majority of us that we
do not get quite the amount of
happiness We are entitled to.
Among the countless things
which tend to make us more or
less miserable i'll health takes
first place. Hannah More said
that sin was generally to be at
tributed to biliousness. No doubt
crippled liver with the result
ing impure blood, is the cause Of
more mental gloom than any
other single thing. And whs
can reckon up the fearful aggre-
gate of pain, loss and fear a.
rising from the many diseases
which are familiar to mankind;
like q vast cloud It hangs over
a multitude no one can number.
You can see these people every
where. For them life can scarce
" be said to have any "bright
side" at all. Hence the eager
ness with which they search for
relief and cure. Remedies like
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
have not attained their high po-
sition in the confidence Of the
people by bald assertions and
Boosting advertisements. They
are obliged to win it by doing
actually what is claimed for them.
That this remedy deserves it's
reputation is conceded. It is
palatable as honey and contains
tbs nutritive and curative prop
critics of Pure Cod Liver Oil,
combined with the Compound
Syrup of Hypophosphites, Ex-
tracts of Malt and Wild Cherry.
Nothing has such record Of
success in Scrofula, Influenza,
Throat and Lung Troubles, and
emaciating complaints and dis
orders that tend to undermine
the foundations of strength and
vigour. It's use helps to show
life's brighter side. Professor

final report to the council, but seems
somewhat dubious about the matter.
