COMPARES BRYAN TO JACKSON.
Kern Says that Bryan will Rebuke
the Modern Biddles.

Greensboro, n. c., Oct. John
w. Kern. Democratic candi late for
the Vice Presidency, ina speech here
last night declared William J. Bryan
to be a second Andrew Jackson to
rebGke the modern William Biddles.
'ln Jackson's time" he said,
there was a condition in the finan-
cial affairs of this country in a mea-
sure like that existing to-day 4
banker, William Biddle, power in
the country, attempted to dictate

You have second Jackson in w.
}. Bryan. to rebuke the RockefellerS
and Harrimans and the Coreys."
Mr.. Kern related the alleged domi-
nation Of the financial world by 4
hundred men, and continued:
"You men must meet the situation
as fearlessly as a handful of your
forefathers met the attempted over
riding Of their liberties on Quill
IoFd pa'tleleld nunureu ana twenty
years ago"
Mr.. Kern read from newspaper
quoting VIM. e. Corey, president of
the Steel Corporation, approving the
candidacy of Mr.. Taft. "He is an
ideal candidate for Corey" he said
because the Coreys and men like
him want to be let alone. Mr..
Roosevelt says. the effect Of great
corporations like that of which Mr..
Corey is the head, is the breeding
of immortality. They do. They
breed Coreys and Harrimans and

VIVA Il THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us
Strong and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter the
blood. They work night and day.
When healthy they remove about 500
grains of impure matter daily, when
unhealthy some part OF this impure
matter is left in the blood. This
brings on many diseases and symp-
toms--pain in the back, headache,
nervousness, hot, dry skin, rheuma-
tism, gout, gravel, disorders Of the
eyesight and hearing, dizziness, ir-
regular heart, debility, drowsinese,
dropsy, deposits in the urine, etc.
But If you keep the filters right you
will have no trouble with your kid
neys.
Mrs. r. A. McLees, living on w.
Main street, Walhalla, S. c., says
"To say that Doan's Kidney Pills

ON THE BAND WAGON.

There will be $50 delegates to the
Republican national convention which
meets in Chicago on June 16 for the
purpose of selecting a candidate TO?
president, and of this number Secre-
tary Taft must receive a majority
491 votes-in order to carry off the
prize. AS indicating whether or no:
he will be able to control that number
Of votes the friends Of the secretary
Of war point to the fact that Of the
1873 delegates chosen at the close OF
the first week in March 108 have been
instructed to vote for Mr.. Taft. O
the remaining thirty, twenty six have
been instructed for Vice President
Fairbanks, all of them in his home
state of Indiana, and four others, two
in Alabama and two in Missouri, are
uninstructed. If this ratio is main
tanned during the remaining two
months of the canvass: for delegates
Mr.. Taft will go to the Chicago con
vention with more than two thirds OF
the delegates pledged to his candidacy
! During the first week in March forty
delegates were chosen to the nationa
convention, every one Of whom was in
structed to vote for Mr.: Taft. M
Taft's native state started off tic
month with q state convention held il
Columbus on March . and and named
four delegates large and instructed
them for Mr.. Taft.
Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Mary
land, Missouri, Tennessee ana Iowa
have instructed delegates for Taft.

SEE TO THE DELEGATES.

With 80 per cent of the Republican
voters of Minnesota in favor of Taft
for president, the formation of an or
ganization for the purpose Of insur1ng
reliable Taft delegates to the national
convention, as reported in Saturdays
Dispatch, is simply a means for regis
tering correctly the will Of the people.
The right sort of men must come to the
front, backed by the rank and file, or
some others will seize the opportunity
to ride into the convention upon the
crest of the Taft wave, prepared to DO
the Rooseveltian candidate a bad serv-
ice, if the chance can be found.
The Taft organization is based upon
the need of care in selecting delegates
to the end that only faithful friends Of
Taft be chosen. They should be for
Minnesotas choice, first, last and all
the time; men who can be depended
upon to stand by the colors, With or
without instructions. The state de-
mands a solid delegation, bound by the
most ironclad instructions for Taft, not
for fear of any traitors among the
twenty-five, but for proclamation to
the whole country of Minnesota's posi-
ton; not because it ought to be neces-
sary to instruct, to prevent OBJECTIONS
from the Taft standard, but for the
moral effect upon other states and 9TH
er delegations Of an uncompromising
clear and hearty declaration for the
candidate who is going to be nomi.
mated; not because of conflicting ele-
ments upon the delegation but to ad-
vertise to the world the strength and
unanimity of Minnesota Republicans
for the man who will be elected. The
instructions are needed to make out
siders know a condition whose exist
ence is known to all our own people.
The one thing needful is to prevent
mere instructions and lip service from
being used as a cover by any selfseek-
ing and unfit men who might desire to
be delegates.-St. Paul Dispatch.

zHEcT REAL TAFT MEN.

There 10 ono essential difference -
twssa Republican and Democratic
national conventions. which WIN be
especially emphasized this year. and
which will have its effect uDou the
nomination In each party. That 1if-
ference is that in the Democratic con
tvention It Is customary to bind tho
state DELEGATIONS by a unit rule, while
in the Republican convention there IS
no such rule. This will work out this
year IN the Democratic convention to
the advantage Eof Mr.. Bryan. There
may be here and there in: many states
|dslegatssa+who would be#glad to break
away from tho oft-repeated leader, and
try a nav deal but; they will DO I'M
able to do 20. II their states have in
structed Tor Bryan they will be bound
to vote for Bryan. - II they attempt to
rise In their places and protest that
they are, not for Bryan, the state in
structions will be drawn upon them,
tho chairman of tho delegation will
vote his state en-. bloc, the chairman
OF tho convention will receive the vote
from him., and it. will be counted as
he casts It, Republican conventions
have no such rule. Many states will
give instructions, but those instruc-
tons will be binding sonay upan the
delegates at large. tTte district dele
gates, ,sanlsss they also ahasee nheen IN !
strueted, sMfll ayote sas they choose, re-
gardlees Of the state convention.
Moreover, the instructions are binding
only morally. The collegiate who de-
sires to violate his instructions may do
so, and his vote will be counted as he:
casts it, not as he was instructed to
cast it.
The pre- convention struggle in the
two parties is thus essentially differ
ent. In the Democracy it is fight to
force through state Instructions In
the Republican party it is a free-for-
all to determine who is the favorite
candidate. The Republican states that
have favorite sons have a compare
lively Democratic time. But those
which have no home candidate, but
which wish to instruct for one from
another state, will have to find out in
advance who the various aspirants for
the delegateships are really for. This
is the problem in Minnesota. If Min
nesota is for Taft, it is much more
important to segregate the real Taft
men from the alleged Taft men and
send only the real ones to the con-
vention than it is to give instructions.
But to carry out faithfully the will OF
the people both should be done.-Min-
neapolis Journal.
The Worthington advance. [volume] (Worthington, Minn.) 1874-1908, 1908-04-03

The presidents last message to
congress should prove to the voters OF
the country the folly it would be to
interrupt the great work in which the
Republican party is engaged either
by the election of Democratic presi-
dent and a Democratic house, or by
nomination and election of reaction
airy Republican candidate who would
be obliged to the very mon who pro-
cured his nomination to break away
from the doctrines and policies OF
Roosevelt and to choose a different
course. It is the knowledge that
Governor Hughes cannot secure the
nomination without obligating him
self to the anti-Roosevelt faction ia
such way as to render it impossible
for him to carry on the work even
along as radical lines as he might be
disposed to, which makes the presi-
dent regard the governors nomiina-
ton as something to be averted at all
costs, and as for the other candidates
or would be candidates, there Is not
one who Is not opposed, il bis heart,
to the policies laid down 81 Mr..
Roosevelt. except Of course Secretary
