tons, as many old soldiers and
other republicans of this district
can testify.
We especially call the atten-
ton of the voters of the district
to this fact; That Mr., Hamlm
ability and experience enable
him to represent us very much
better than a new and inexperi-
enced man could possibly do.
We believe that a very large
majority of the people Of this
district join with us in condemn
ing the Payne-Aldrich tariff
law, and we take special pride
in commencing Mr.. Hamlin's rec
ord in congress during the con
sideratiOn and passage of that
bill. His record shows that he
stood for the interests of the peo.
pie and against the interests of
the favored few, and we call upon
all the voters of the district who
are opposed to a law hat gives to
the few, for their special benefit
the right to rob the millions of
other people who are compelled
to buy the necesSarieS of life,
to join with us in re-electing Mr..
Hamlin, for we know that in him
we have "a faithful, loyal and
true representive.
We condemn, and we believe
that all the people of the district
condemn, Cannonism and all it,
attendant evils; and We point &c
Mr.. Hamlin's record in congress
as an absolute guarantee that he
is opposed to Cannonism, and i,
in favor of so reforming the
rules of the house of represen
tatives as to take away from tn,
i, speaker the power to absolutely
! control all legislation.
When you vote for Mr.. Ham

Another Wonderful Discovery.

Electricity, telephones, airships
and all the wonderful inventions
of this scientific age seemed i'm

it seems there is nothing so I'M

compliShment. Prof. Emerson
has now discovered "A preparation
which viii really grow hair.
Iowa people are amazed and as
founded by Emerson's new dis
coyery for the hair. Emerson
said that one bottle of his new
discovery would grow a full
head of hair to its natural color.
The people did not believe him,
1t was too much TO expect and
too good to be true. They had
tried all the highly advertised
hair ~restorers and had always
been disappointed and they could
not believe one bottle would

But now comes the most start

it. What do you think he did
He made the bold and remarkable
} statement that he would give five
dollars to any person who used
/ one bottle of his new discovery
and failed to secure a new and
l satisfactory growth of hair. The
people were astOunded by the

sponSible and would do as he

Flows Field With Dynamite.

FLOWS tlelu WIN OgudAlAtS'
j. Henry Caldwell of Spartan
burg, n. c., is the first man to
utilize commercial dynamite in
blowing land. The method of
planting the cartridges was sim
pie; one man walked ahead with
a crowbar and stuck it into the
ground about three feet; the
man following affixed a percus-
sion cap to the stick of dynamite
and two feet of fuse and trained
it into the hole with "A rake
handle, finally leaving only the
white fuse protruding, Incident
ally the dynamite used was of the
strength ordinarily used for blast
ing stumps and is not rs costly as
that used in Quarries for the re-
moving of rock.
After the planting of the dy-
Mantle charges a large crowd of
the native population gathered
near the field of operations to
witness what they regarded as
the novel within of one of their
most progressive farmers. The
negroes of the locality did no.
know what to make Of the pro
ceedings and looked with awe up
on the operators calculated t.
wrench from nature the product

that several hundred pounds o
dynamite were to be exploded re

upon Mr.. Caldwell to come to a
agreement in regard to the inev.

bors felt sure would ensue.
In exploding the fields, fou
