If Bryan should be elected, what
would be the logical thing for the peo-
pie in general to do? They fully real
ize that he favors free trade. The plat
form OF his party condemns the policy
OF protection as robbery. His success
mea lower prices. Just as soon as II
was announced that he had been elect
ed, the peole would stop buying, In
anticipation Of q lower market. Every
person that could wait would wait and
every merchant would curtail buying
to the utmost limit. for the reason
that he would not wish TO buy at q
high price In December that which he
could buy at q lower price during the
coming year. The market would b a
dead one till after the tariff proposed
by the democrats had been put In
force, and then 1t would be a declining
market until the bottom had been
reached. Meanwhile the greatest suf-
ferers would be the laborers OF the
country. The merchants are mostly
able to stand a severe loss, but II Is
mighty hard on a workingman to be
thrown out Of employment, as they
we're In the last democratic admins
traiion, and left out for fully half a
presidential term.
Such a policy not only knocks the
future price OF all commodities. but 1t
scales the present price Of the goods
upon the shelves. A waiting market Ia
always a falling market and a falling
market Ia always bad for everybody
the merchant because he loses
the money he has been com
PEELED 10 put into his goods, the
laborer because he Is thrown out
Of employment through the clos
ing OF the factories. 1t extends to
every business man and every labor
ing man in the nation. The railroad
man cannot escape the inevitable con
sequences Of free trade, because II
means lack of transportation pending
the lowering process and lower wages
| after the squeeze has been effected.
This nation Is not ready to drop it
prices one-third. High prices all tn,
way around are better for everybody

Many wool men are asking the ques.
ton why. during the recent panic,
American wool vent below the Austria
liam price with the tariff and transpor>
tation added. The answer to the Ques.
ton Is simple. There vas no demand
for wool at any price, manufacturing
having been almost entirely suspended,
hence those sales that did take place
were necessarily at the prices offered
by manufacturers who had means to
buy and sold for the future. II the
wool men who are asking the question
will take the pains to investigate they
will md that there were very few

INSTANT RELIEF OF ITCHING HUMOR

 bylntense itching and Burning We'll in Two Days and Says That
CUTICURA IS AMONG
 HIS HOUSEHOLD GODS

"God bless the man who first com- pounded Cuticura. Some two months ago I had a humor break out on my limbs below my knees. They came to look like raw beefsteak. all red, and no one knows how they itched and burned. They were so swollen that 1 had to split my drawers open to get them on and could not get my shoes on for week or more. used five or six diff ferent remedies and got no help, only when applying them the burning was worse and the itching less. One morning I remembered that had bit of Cuti- cura and tried it. From the moment it touched me the itching was gone and have not felt a bit of it since. The swelling went down and in two days had my shoes on and was about as usual. I only wish I had used the Cuticura Remedies in the first of my troubles. They would have saved me two or three weeks Of intense suffering. Dur ing that time did not sleep an hour at 6 time, but was up applying such remedies as had. Henceforth the Cuticura Remedies will be among my household gods, rest assured. George B. Farley, 50 South State St.. Concord, N. H., May IA, 1907."

What to Do
 In Constipation
Don't Get the Pill Habit-Treat Your
 Bowels In Natures Way.

ooWSiS TIT iNdtdi . fVdy When people become constpated their first thought is often to take a compound cathartic pill or caomel or salts or min eral water and get movement This brings violent action of the bowels with pain and griping and is followed by general weakness, and then after several movements that are accompanied by straining, griping and pain, the bowels seem tired out and usually are more bound tip than ever.
 This is the natural consequence of the use of violent cathartics They tear through the bowels, injuring and irritat- ing the delicate mucuous lining, and con- stant use of the pills or whatever pur- gative is used makes the injury perma- nent.
 It is much more safe and sensible to take mild effective remedy that re- moves the waste matter at once without pain or gripe. and that soothes and strengthens the bowels and restores to them regular daily movements without the slightest injury.
 Such remedy is Dr. Caldwel's Syrup Pepsin. It brings immediate relief in an Nrsy natural manner to old chronic cases tough anstipation and continued use will le fire arose, taN cure Often the bowels With money 'ii.ir work because the stom- ne death of Il properly prepared the food ought confe aids digestion and causes the propos locaetion of digestive juices so the stomach can do it's work without the help of medicine.

Montgomery, May 5-(Speeial.) )-Seetion Director Chaffee reports better weather the past week. though it is wet today Generally fair weather prevailed, and the sunshine was ample, though showers were fairly general on Wednesday, when heavy rains fell in some of the southern coun- ties.

Light frost was quite general, except in the extreme southern counties, on Friday morning, when heavy to killing frost occurred in portions of the northern district
 The weekly mean temperature for the state, 62 degrees, was 4 degrees below the normal. Wednesday was the warmest day, with the temperature well up in the sos over the interior.
