For who is Cosgrove? A man who

long as the oldest pioneer in the state
can remember. And history has it that
he was in a "receptive'' mood long
before that. A man who has accom-

finally worked himself into the posi-

has already begun to appoint his as

And who is Pattison? A man who is
not an habitual office seeker. He is a

REPUBLICAN PROSPERITY

The republicans have paraded pros
perity as their trade mark Let's sec
what right they have to it.
Dun's Review shows that for the sin
years before the passage of the Nc
Kinley bill the liabilities for failures
reached a total of 1925, 135, S3S-an ave
rage of $137. $40 year or $34,3SO.-
$50 per quarter. The republicans put
the Mckinley bill in force October 6
1890. The liabilities of failures during
the last three months before it's pas
sage reached an aggregate of $50, ASP,
436. The total for the first three
months after its passage was $S9,OS5,-
IA So the Mckinley bill was followed
as quickly as a peal of thunder follows
a flash of lightning by a more thar
doubling of losses by failures
This bill was in operation fifteen full
quarters. Chree and e-quarter years
During this time the losses from fail
ures reached a total of $S41,511.144 or
SIG, 1906 more in three and three
quarters years of the Mckinley bill
than during the six years preceding its
enactment. The annual average losses

was 1924 ,402, 972-over so per cent
more than $137,522,6 $40. the annual ave
rage of the six preceding years.
The Mckinley bill was repealed Au-
gust %, 1S94-near the middle of the
third quarter of the year The loss
from failures for this Quarter-abOut
half under the Mckinley bill and halt
under the Wilson bill was $29411196
The loss for the first quarter under
the Wilson bill was s41,S4S, 354-not
quite half as great for the first quar-
ter under the Mckinley bill-SS9.OS5.
IA. The total loss from failures fol

three quarter years. that the Wilson
| bill was in operation was 1892, 1874 .O3.
| or an average Of 1913, 49, 1871. which
was smaller than the annual average
under the Mckinley bill by $3O.645,141
There is a specimen of republican
| prosperity. The panic of 1898 so-calle(
should be called the panic of 1890, fol
| it began then and it followed immedi-
ately on the passage of the Mckinley
bill. 1t reached its elimination in 1898

him to doctor and tried half dozen
other treatments, all with the same
result: no improvement at all. The
disease gradually spread until nearly
every part of his body was quite raw.
We had to strap him down in bed, for
he used to tear himself dreadfully in
his sleep. The agony he went through
is quite beyond words. No one thought
we would rear him. The regimental
doctor, very clever man, pronounced
the case hopeless; at least, he SAID the
only hope was that he might, II he
lived long enough, outgrow it to some
extent. We had him in hospitals four
times and he was pronounced one OF
the worst cases, if not the worst, ever
admitted. From each he was dis
charged as incurable; in fact ne got
worse under the successive treatments.
At one hospital they incased him in
plaster. and this seemed to aggravate
the soreness terribly. He looked SO
badly that no one liked to go near him
and his life was a burden to him. We
kept trying remedy after remedy, but
we had got almost past hoping for
cure. Six months ago we purchased
a set of Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and
Resolvent Pills and persevered with
them. The result was truly marvellous
and to-day he is perfectly cured. his skin
not having a blemish on it anywhere.
