An unpreludiesi kepubl.sa,, Opinion.

Victor Rosewatcr, the Omaha editor
bureau, is responsible for the funniest
thing that has yet happened III the
campaign. He wrote a scorching edit
orial OH the following which he attribut-
ed to Mr.. Bryan:
I'm all tariff legislation the true
principle is best maintained 10y the
imposition of such duties rs will equal
the difference between the cost of pro-
duction at home and abroad. together
with reasonable profit Ia American in
dustricS.''
In commenting on this Mr.. Rosewatcr
said:
Nothing prettier in the catch.all line
has been offered i'll this campaign. The
most hide-bonud standpattcr in the
country can accept that as satisfactory
and the rank and the free trader can
find naught in il The declaration
means simply nothing. An attempt to
legislate along that line would simply
open the way to intcrminablc wrang-
ling as to what constitutes reasonable
profit for hair.splitting on wages in
industry; price Of raw material in am
other; rebates and drawbacks in third.
and 50 on through the list of thousands
of articles that are now on the tariff
lists. Under such proposition an
attempt at tariff revision. at Bryan's
directions. would serve only to halt in
dustrial and commercial progress and
keep business unsettled during his
term of office"
The words complained of are not IA
part of any speech delivered by Mr..
Bryan. but Il part of the trust plank of
the republican platform. When Mr..
Bryan was shown Mr.. Rosewater'S
editorial, he agreed with his couclus.
ions and suid
This is rich find. II shows how
absurd the republican platform looks
to Il republican when the republican
has IA chance to look at it in a 1sintrr-
ed way"

BABY GIRL CRIED
AND SCRATCHED
All the Time-Torturing Eczema
Covered Her Body-CouId Not
SIeep-Doctor Said Sores Would
Last for Years-Skin Now Clear.
CURED IN THREE MONTHS
BY CUTICURA REMEDIES

Il take great pleasure in telling you
what great help it was for me to use
Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment
for my baby niece. She was suffering
from that terrible torture, eczema. 1t
was all over her body but the worst was
on her face and hands. Her hands were
so bad that she could not hold anything.
She cried and scratched all the time and
could not sleep night or day from the
scratching. l had her under the doc
tors care for a year and a half and he
seemed to do her no good. / took her
to the best doctor in the city and he said
that she would have the sores until she
was six years old. But if l had de-
pended on the doctor my baby would
have lost her mind and died from the
want of aid.
Il used all the remedies that every
body told me about and / tortured the
child almost to death. Then l saw in
the paper how Cuticura was the thing
for Irritating skin. l bathed her with
warm water and Cuticura Soap and used
the Cuticura Ointment. She was cured
in three months. Now her skin is as
clear and smooth as it could be. I shall
recommend the use of Cuticura wherever
l see the skin in bad condition. Alice

echoed from bank to bank Down tum
bled the chief over the edge, rolling
over and over like a shot rabbit till he
landed plump in the water.
A yell from the band he had led, and
score of Indians swarmed up to the
bank. But our men drove them back
and they gave up the attack as a bad
job. At dawn we limped worn out into

When I was thirteen my mother was
building hotel for the use Of passing
gold hunters. for this was late in 1859
when the gold fever swept America
and all roads led to Pixies peak. Our
Salt Creek valley home lay on one OF
the most travelled routes.
Hotel building and furnishing are
not on the free list. So / wanted to
help raise money for our Valley Grove
House. With an older boy named
Dave Phillips I planned trapping
trip. Winter was setting in when we
started.
We bought an OK team and wagon
to transport the traps, camp outfit and
provisions and took large supply of
ammunition, besides extra rifles. Out
destination was the Republican river.
It courses more than $50 miles from
Leavenworth, but the country about it
was reputed rich in beaver acted as
scout on the journey, going ahead to
pick out trails, locate camping grounds
and look out for breakers. The infor-
nation concerning the beaver proved
correct. The game was indeed so plen-
tiful that we concluded to pitch a per
manent camp and see the winter out.
We chose hollow in side hill and
enlarged it to the dimensions of de
cent sized room.
We had seen no Indians on our trip
out and were not concerned in that
quarter, though we were too good
plainsmen to relax our vigilance.
There were other foes, as we discov-
cred the first night in our new quar-
terS.
We were aroused by commotion
in the corral where the oxen were
confined, and, hurrying out with our
rifles, we found a huge bear intent

monster rushed upon Phillips. Dave
leaped back, but his foot slipped on a
bit of ice, and he went down with a
thud, his rife flying from his hand as
he struck
A bullet from my rife entered the
