tory-Conyention Date Fixed.
The New York Democratic Stat
committee, in ten-minutes session
Friday afternoon, voted to issue cal
for the State Democratic Convention
to be held in Rochester Septembe:
lis. The committee also adopted
unanimously resolution endorsing
the candidacy of W. J. Bryan ant
John W. Kern and expressing appro
baton O: the platform Of the Denver
Convention.
Resolutions were adopted as fol.
lows:
"Tne State committee Of the De,
mocratic party Of the State Of New
York, in meeing assembled, cordial.
ly ratifes, approves and endoses
the action of the National Convention
at Denver in selecting as tn estand-
ard bearers Of the party in the ma
tional campaign VIM. j. Bryan, OF
Nebraska, and John W. Kern, Of In
diana. We believe that Mr.. Bryan
stands out among all the public men
of the country as the embodiment OF
honesty, integrity, patriotism and
the other qualities which go to make
up an ideal American statesman,
and that in Mr.. Kern, he has Wor-
thy running mate who sizes up well
to the great Office of Vice-President.
1--WE strongly commend the plat
form adopted at Denver, and believe
that it will set forth the principles
Of progressive Democracy.
"In the face of tn egreat extraV-
agance of the present Republican
Administration and its plain disre-
gard of the best interests Of the peo-
pie we see on every side evidence OF
Democratic harmony, and we call
upon the State of New York, regard
less of party, to rally to the support
of Bryan and Kern, and take part. in
carrying the ticket to victory this
fall"
State Chairman w j. Corners,
when asked about the situation
throughout the State, replied:
"Wm. J. Bryan will carry New
York State by from $4,000 to 1907
900. Bryan is the strongest Demo-
crat in New York today. We viii
carry Erie, Niagara, Chenago and.
fifteen OF sixteen other counties.
Kings County will roll up a big ma
jority, and other boroughs of Great
er New York may be depended upon
to add sufficient Democratic plura--
lity to wipe out the Republican
whoever is nominated by the Re-
publicans will not carry the State
plurality upstate. In my opinion,
above the Bronx by more than 5o,-
900 or $4,000
Discussing the Gubernational
Mr. Connors said he had
heard the names Of Judge Alton B.
Parker mentioned as candidate.
"There is plenty Of good material
to pick FROM said Mr.. Corners.
Martin W. Littleton would make a
strong candidate. State Comptroller,
Glynn has made good record, and
would make a strong candidate for
Governor. Lieutenant Governor
Chandler is also strong upstate" I"

Torturing Animals
To Assist Science
It is Cruel Method to Follow, But II
Has Saved Many Human Lives.

t'aS SaVeu Mahy Truman Lives.
Prof Pawlow of Russia was engag-
ed for many years in experimental
work, trying TO learn the workings of
digestion. especially the digestive
glands.
He. with able assistants, operated
upon dogs. cats. guinea pigs and other
animals.
His methods were seemingly pain
full. hut he gave to science work
which won the Nobel prize and made
for him an undying fame.
Science penetrated the secrets of
nature Prof. Pnwlow saw animals d.
gest food. He analyzed juices from
every part Of the digestive canal and
stomach under all conditions of diges-
ton. He spent years of ceaseless
study amid the bowling and dying
beasts, but he won, and science today
looks upon him as a great man.
"To do a great right. do a little
wrong" Shakespeare said. and Prof.
Pawlow obeyed this trite saying.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are pre-
pared by the most scientific process.
They are produced by modern appli-
ances and meet the demand OF Goth
century chemistry
They give man the means to correct
his infirmities Of stomach and diges-
tive organs.
They enrich the blood, give nature
the Juices and fluids she lacks, stop
the formation Of noXions gases and
the fermentation of food They neu-
tralize powerful acids and alkalies
which irritate and devour the stomach
They prevent and relieve bowel and
intestinal trouble and soothe the
nerves.
They should be used after every
meal whether one has dyspepsia and
stomach trouble or the stomach be
naturally healthy BY their use one
may eat at all hours and whatever
one desires and they will help the
system digest or throw off such food
! They are thoroughly meritorious as
their tremendous sale and popularity
