THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

The special message of President Roosevelt Friday was one of the strong est and most forcible ever transmitted to a congress. It contained one great truth after another, but it will be gen orally accepted as the presidents last big play to the grand stand. It was typical reformer speech, one of the kind that makes one think how easy it is to say things and how hard it is to do them. The president knew when he wrote the message, what every think ing man knew when he read 1t, that most of the recommendations made are futile for the reason that the corpora tion controlled puppets in congress will not permit the legislation he desires and recommends.
 The president started too late. If he had begun saying the things he said in Fridays message, seven years ago and then kept at it, results might have been achieved ere this which look far distant at present. But he waited until the possibility of succeeding himself had vanished before taking the radical stand he now takes. But even at that, the president could get the nomination at Chicago next summer and have little trouble in being reelected, and in spite of the fact that few years ago his pres. ent utteranees would have been hailed with derision by his own partisans as Utopian and socialistic, and entirely foreign to the doctrines of his own par ty.
 The presidents message will make great campaign ammunition for Secre- tary Taft, the president s heir-apparent and probably that is its purpose. If Taft will take the field with deelara tion of principles, based on tine mes sage, which comprises largely NIT. Br!r an s thunder of eight years ago, he will be hard to beat if he gets the nomini tion. But we imagine he will tone iI down considerably before using it.

At times when you don feel just right, when you have a bad stomach, take something that will stimulate for a time but something that will positive ly do the very work that the stomach performs under ordinary and normal conditions, something that will make the food digest. To do this you must take a natural digestant like Kodol For Dyspepsia. Kodol is a scientific of vegetable acids with nat ural digestants and contains the same
 juices found in healthy stomach. Each dose will digest more than 5000 grains of good food. It is usre to afford prompt relief; it digests what you eat and is pleasant to take. Sold by Han na s drug store. 22s Broad street

Public Examiner Foster has made charges against the board of supervis- ors and the district attorney of Co., chise county. Charges of irregularity are made in report of the examiner to the governor. Recently Mir. Foster pre- ferred charges against the district at torney of Cochise county, but the grand jury whitewashed that official. It looks now as though the examiner were go ing after all of them.

A weak Stomach, means weak stom. ach nerves, always. And this is also true of the Heart and Kidneys. It's a pity that sick ones continue to drug the Stomach or stimulate the Heart and Kidneys. The weak nerves, not the or gans themselves, need this help. This explains why Dr. Shoop's Restorative has, and is promptly helping so many sick ones. It goes direct to the cause of these diseases. Test this vital truth and see Palace and Globe Pharm- acies.

HUGHES AND JOHNSON.

There is resemblance which, in many ways, is most remarkable be- tween the position of Gov. Hughe'D in the republican party and that of Gov. Johnson in the democratic party. ,'he governor of Minnesota like the governor of New York, has established an nx- traordinary reputation in his own state by record acknowledged to be most excellent in point of character as well as ability, Governor Johnson, like Gov ernor Hughes, has shown his courage and frmness in relation to the regul l. tion of corporations. He is not Gre actionary," though he is not radical. He presents, much more markedly than his New York contemporary, an ex- traordinary attraction from the point of view of availability through the prospect his nomination would furnish of the party carrying an otherwise hopeless state, and possibly agroup of such states. But far more emphati- cally than is the case with Gov. Hughes, Gov. Johnson stands in need of proper presentation of himself to the people of the country as national figure, Whether his friends will find or make an occasion for such presentation, and whether, if so, he will adequately arise to the occasion remains to be seem Baltimore Sun.
