General Demand

Of the Well-Informed of the World has
always been for simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy Of known
value laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its com
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
cellent combination Of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir Of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits Of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one Of many reasons why
Syrup Of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well-lnformed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents
per bottle.

Bigger Than Party.

The Fayette Free Press, a Demo-
cratic newspaper, discussing John T.
McGraw and William E. Chiffon, the
former partx dictator for years and
the latter an aspirant for such posi-
ton, says:
The Democratic party in this state
is bigger than any man or set Of
men,"
The statement thus made Is fear
fully in error as shown by the recent
convention held by the Democratic
party at various points. For instance.
in most all the conventions, members
Of the party. who insisted for party
good that delegates to the Denver
convention should not be instructed,
were ruthlessly over-ridden. trampled
under feet and hooted down. Bryan
and his followers constituted the man
and set of men who proved bigger
than the party itself.
Another instance was the organized
effort and success to name no man to
the Denver convention. who was not
ou66SokCu ny SlLnSI XnCdIdW w Sull-
ton. Prior to some OF the conven-
tons 1t was announced that such
composed McGraw's slate and the
Chiffon slate was mentioned, too.
At the Wheeling convention Editor
R.. E. Horror took occasion to declare
publicly that he would favor neither
McGraw nor Chiffon. AS the result
he was not named as a delegate to
Denver. Those who were named were
on the McGraw and Chiffon states.
This again shows that the party, was
not big enough to name Horror over
the objections of McGraw and Chill
ton. 1t shows that a man to be elect
ed delegate had to be for one or the
other. The fact that Horror, owing
to his attitude toward these two men,
was not named, proves again that the
party is not bigger than any man or
set OF men. Also the fact that the
men chosen at the Wheeling conven-
ton were picked out from the Nc
Graw and Chiffon states proves that
these two men are bigger than the
party itself.
The Free Press advances bad logic
and we'll 1t knows it.
