Sweet Fern Cure for ivy Poison.

We have found that the common

the cool tea to battle the poisoned

Revision.

II Is an old-time Republican cry that
''the tariff will be revised by its
friends" Representative Mccall of
Massachusetts,, Republican, hit the
nail on the head when in referring to
this cry he said: III the tariff cannot
be revised when twothirds Of the
membership of both houses is Repub.
lican. when is revision to Gomez"
Revision. through the Republican
party, is to come whenever the bene.
ficiaries of a high protective tariff are
willing to surrender the enormous ad.
vantages they possess; and this sur
render will be made whenever human
selnshness is destroyed.

The admiral had two years of very
hard campaigning in China and the
Philippines. and it was he who COM
manded the navy relief expedition dur.
ing the Boxer troubles. 1t was during
the Sampson-Schley controversy that
he called on Schley one day and in the
course of conversation about the dis
pute then on remarked, isn't there
glory enough for ALI?
The phrase in slightly altered form

came famous.

Melville. who recently urged the pur-
chase by America OF the captured flag
of the American frigate Chesapeake,
made brilliant record in the civil war
and In 1870 sailed with De Long on the
Jeanette in the Ill fated arctic expedi-
ton. He commanded the boats crew
which escaped from the Lena delta,
and later he led the expeditions which
recovered the bodies Of De Long and
his companions. Admiral Melville was
quoted by President Roosevelt in his
letter regarding the Rixey-Brownson
episode and the command OF the hos

"As governor Johnson has done very
well. There really isn't very much for
a governor to do except be decent and
sensible, address public gatherings and
represent the state on public occasions.
Johnson has done all this with credit.
He has appointed good men to office,

tons. The state Is very proud of him

on the Democratic ticket. Governor
Johnson's first election may be explain
ed by the sad error of his opponents in
circulating the poorhouse story and that
about his mother taking in washing.
When the voters of the state discovered
that the candidate had worked his way
up from the bottom of things, and not
only that, but had supported his mother
and several other little JOhnsonS, they
elected him governor, the Republican
party being split open to begin with. His
second election appears to have result
ed from his good record as an exec
utive in addition to the story of his
early career. Somebody once asked
Governor johnson what he had done in
his office to make the people re-elect

was, had boyhood advantages OF
which Lincoln never dreamed, because
the latters early environment was
that of pioneer in an iliterate, book

Johnson had the advantage of the

filed up the chinks with reading the

The governor is married, Mrs. John

event of White House occupancy both
the governor and his wife would be
