ESTES MAKES A STRONG CAM

Politics are we'll stirred up in the
western part of the county, and the
principal fight seems to be centering
around the commissionership," says
local politician who has just re-
turned from an extended canvass in
Leavenworth and the Lake Wenat
chez country. "a. F. Estes will
surely win the nomination for COM
missioner in the second district, I'M
less am badly mistaken. Leaven-
worth has two candidates and the
vote is badly split in that district,
vote there than either of the other
candidates. 1t has been reported
that one of the Leavenworth candi-
dates would carry the vote to man
in the Wenatchee Lake country, but
l found quite division of sentiment
with Mr.. Estes always in the lead.
cat Peshastin everything seemed
to be for Estes, and in his home pre-
cinct, Cashmere, no discussion worth
mention could be found. At Monitor
and Wenatchee the prospects were
particularly pleasing, while the Up
per Columbia river country will prob
ably give Mr.. Estes the largest ma
jority of any candidate on the ticket.
most certainly predict the nomina
ton of A. F. Estes for county COM
missioner of the second district at
the primary. He is the candidate of
the people, and will serve the inter-

Mr.. Beveridge then said in part:
1--WE are midway in an historic
movement for righteousness written
into law. Shall that movement be
carried out, or wrecked? It's concrete
expression is the Roosevelt policies.
Shall they be saved or lost? Had the
about facers in both parties who now
are powerless, succeeded, they could
not have wrecked the movement, but
only DELAYED it. For the people
would have gathered Roadway again
until their purpose was worked ou..
But extravagant schemes and er"o-
tional agitators can wreck it. The
revolution would have failed had I'M
practicable men been in command in
stead of the cautious and wise. yet
daring and determined Washington.
Many a cause has gone down at the
hands of hot-headed and eccentric
friends
And so today, in the American peo-
pies mighty moral advance, thus far
successfully led by Theodore Roose-
welt, the gravest question is whether
we shall place our commanders
standard in the hands of his most
trusted captain, who will lead us
safely ana surely along the well
marked course we are following, or
in the hands of those who will lead
us on zig-zag marches after rash ad
ventures until the whole movement
dissolves in the peoples disgust and
the worlds riiicule.

In these seven historic years We

abroad our work already done has
been so vast that the world speaks
Of it with praise and wonder; but we
are midway in the work. and the
question is whether we shall go on

After discussing the tariff question,

spect to the Monroe doctrine, he con-
tinued:
Comparison of Bryan and Taft.
This is campaign of candidates
even more than of platform. The
question is not which candidate is
most upright, patriotic, brave, for
both are equally so. The real ques-
tion is which candidate will make the
best president? Which is the wisest,
and steadiest? Which man would
you choose as administrator OF your
estate? Which would you select to
manage your business? Which has
the best training and the most expe-
rience?
Mr. Bryan has never handled a sim

Cuba, built no canal, avoided no alien
danger, saved us from no threatened

Mr.. Taft has done all. 1t was his
genius for the practical and devo-
ton to humanity that took Philippine
chaos and male Philippine order:
took Philippine hate and changed it
to Philippine love. 1t was his states
manship that achieved the impossible,
converted an Oriental people into a
voting citizenship, and laid the fOun-
dations for a future which, as God
wills. may become separate nation
or clad and patriotic part of this
great Republic.
It was William H. Taft who set
Cuba in order, established her feet in
civilizations upward path; and it was

It is he who is commanding the prac-

In domestic affairs Mr.. Bryan has
written not one law, administered not

Thousands Of men and women who
have felt the sting and torture of this
dread disease, which is no respecter

will be interested to know that while
for many years rheumatism was con.
sidered an incurahle disease, now il
is one Of the easiest Affections Of

science has proven II not a distinct
disease in itself. but a symptom

which should be filtered and strained
out in the form of urine. The func-
ton Of the kidneys is to sift these
poisons and acids out and keep the
blood clean and pure. The kidneys,
however, are Of sponge-ike sub

work, cold or exposure become clog

function Of eliminating these poisons
from the blood, they remain in the
veins, decompose and settling about
the joints and muscles, cause the un.
told suffering and pain Of rheuma-
tism and backache, often producing
complications Of bladder and urinary
disease, weakness, etc.
The following simple prescription
is said to relieve the worst cases Of
rheumatism because Of its direct
action upon the blood and kidneys,
relieveing, too, these most severe
forms of bladder and urinary trou-
bles: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one
half ounce; Compound Kargon, one
ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparil-

well in a bottle and take in teaspoon
ful doses after each meal and at
bedtime. The ingredients can be had
from any good prescription phar-
macy, and are absolutely harmless
and safe to use at any time.
