FUNDS ARE NOT EASY
TO GET THIS YEAR

NEW YORK, n. Y, Aug. 30. -
Both of the National campaign COM
mittees find IL hard work to raise
money this year. Both find 1t neces-
sary to cut their cloth accordingly
and plan for relatively small expend-
itures. The Democrats are virtually
living from hand to mouth" They
started in with about 100000, the
uneXpended balance of enterprising
Denver's 100000 convention fund.
Up to date they have taken in an adj
ditional sum of about $4,000, the
aggregate of large number of small
subscriptions, raised chiefly by DEM
ocratic newspapers in the South and
West.
The program which the Democratic
managers have laid out calls for to-
tai expenditure of about 100000,
but they have no idea where the
money is coming from. One thing
they will not be able to do, and that
is to send money to doubtful States.
It is probable that neither committee
will be able to do this. In the old
days, Indiana and all other debatable
States made heavy drafts upon the
National committees. That part Of
the game is virtually played out. II
the local managers in the State feel
Il sore need OF money this year the
probabilities are they will have to
find 1t at home or go without.
The Republican managers are hav-
ing their troubles. too. They have
in hand small but comfortable sum,
contributed chiefly by Charles p. Taft
and a few other individuals. But
they have In pocket or In sight much
less than usual at this stage of the
campaign, and, like their rivals. of tho
other committee, do not know where
kthe bulk of the fund which they need
Is to come from.
or course, the corporations are not
subscribing this year. They can't
because it is forbidden by law. Not
many would put up more than very
meager sums. even II the law did not
stand In the way. Individuals are
slow In coming to the front with their
offerings, and great efforts are being
made by the managers of both par
ties TO tap the bank accounts of Their
friends and well-wishers.

PRATT Tells OF
RECLAIMED Land
H0mesteader Gets It On
Ten.Year Payment
Plan

"There are a number of the Amer
lean land laws which are. l think,
suitable and applicable to this Ter
ritory, and these, will suggest in my
report to Governor Frear and the
Land Advisory Board; there are also
. number of the land laws of Hawaii
which would be suitable to the main
land, and. as matter of fact, ] find
that they are gradually coming into
use in the States. 1t will be an even
break. The happy medium in the
matter of land laws is what We want,
and 1t is that for which we are work.
ing"
Land Commissioner Pratt, who
made the above statement this morn
ing, is head over heels in work pre-
pairing his report which will be pre-
scented to Governor Frear. and does
not care to go into details as TO
what he will suggest in the matter of
changes in the laws or new phases
until they have been presented to His
Excellency. AS a matter of fact. 1t
is probable that Pratt has something
decidedly new to present for the con-
sideration of the Governor and the
Advisory Board.
No determination has been reached
as to when the trip to Hawaii will be
started by Governor Frear, and this
will probably remain as 1t is until
Expert Newell arrives. 1t has been
practically decided, however. that
the start will not be made Tuesday,
as was planned. In this regard, Land

Trufb and
Quality

appeal to the Well Informed In every
walk of life and are essential to permanent
success and creditable standing. Accor-
ingly, it is not claimed that Syrup of Figs
and Elixir of Sienna is the only remedy Of
known value, but one of many reasons
why it is the best of personal and family
laxatives is the fact that it cleanses,
sweetens and relieves the internal organs
on which it acts without any facilitating
after effects and without having to increase
the quantity from time to time.
It acts pleasantly and naturally and
truly as a laxative, and its component
parts are known to and approved by
physicians, as it is free from all objection
able substances. To get its beneficial
effects always purchase the genuine
manufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co., only, and for sale by all leading drug
Rists.

only help for me was to go to a

to use Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and

RHEUMATISM PRESCRIPTION

The Increased use Of whiskey for
rheumatism is causing considerable
discussion among the medical frater-
atty. 1t is an almost infallible cure
when mixed with certain other ingre-
dents and taken properly. The fol-
lowing formula is effective: ITO one
half pint of good whiskey add one
ounce OF Toris Compound and one
ounce of Syrup Sarsaparilla Compound
Take In tablespoonful doses before
each meal and before retiring"
Toris compound is a product OF the
laboratories OF the Globe Pharma-
eeutical Co. Chicago, but it as well as
the other ingredients can be had from
any good druggist.
