What They / SAY

A Third Warder: Reading in the
Tuesday mornings issue Of the Trib-
Fune under the heading What They
Say, the remarks made by the
Young Citizen in favor of young
mayor, etc, has met with the approx
/ all Of all the young men I have taken
it upon myself to ask their views.
1t is proposed meeting of young
men be called soon to discuss the
,advisabiHty Of forming a young mems
club with Sthe aim of taking an, &C
tive part in local politics. - Il.
It is not, meant to GUST the old men
from politics altogether we. need
their advice at times; what we want
I to do is to relieve them of the hard
work they have been performing for
a number Of years in building up the4
city,. !: :,.,.. MI 81 ss;5 /.
1 The young men are becoming tax
payers; they see opportunities in Loo
al affairs, they think, that can be i'm
proved upon; they get new ideas
from modern business methods; they
want to introduce them into politics..
they are anxious to try them. Their
ideas are. no wilder than some that
have been tried in our local offices,
and failed. MA
What the young men in the city
4 needs is to be recognized-give him
a trial. ..'i*E d.
/ . A Barkis: I've been resident of
Bismarck for nigh ON "a years and
had some idea of going into the race
for mayor myself next spring as i
think know a thing or two about
running a town like the people want.
But all us old timers don't look at
things in the same light, and new
tangled ideas are getting hold of even
the old timer In the good old days
a man who was running for mayor
went around afoot and seen the vot
ers and was just common like the
|
campaign in automobiles, toting the
big guns around town so fast they
can't see the fellows on the streets
riding their shoe leather out in the
good, old way. Poor ducks like me
amt got no show with the bloods il
these days. j.

CAN'T BE SEPARATED
Some Bookings People Have Learned
How to Get Rid of Both

Backache and kidney ache are twin
brothers.
You can't separate them.
And you can't get rid of the backache
until you cure the kidney ache.
If the kidneys are well and strong.
the rest of the system is pretty sure to
be in vigorous health.
Doan's Kidney Pills make strong,
healthy kidneys.
Henry Hopkins, retired farmer, Ill-
nois Ave. and Second ST., Huron, S. d..
says: For long time l suffered from
rheumatic pains in my limbs and
steady aching in the small of my back.
My joints were so stiff and sore that
it was painful for me to move around.
My kidneys seemed sluggish in their
action and the secretions gave evil
dence that my kidneys were disorder
ed, as they were generally to frequent
in action and unnatural in appear
ences. Having read of many cures
that had been effected by the use of
Doan's Kidney Pills, / procured box.
| am now glad to state that my back
and kidneys are now stronger than
they have been in years, the stiffness
in my joints has almost disappeared
and my kidneys give me no trouble
whatever. Doan's Kidney Pills i'm
proved my condition in every way and
