Opposed TO Privilege.

What message have you for the Dem
ocrats Of the country" 1 inquired.
II should prefer that you ask me. What
do YOU think will be the leading issue
of the next campaign? Speaking for my
self, 1 believe that the Democratic party
should not fight wealth, but the wrongs
that make poverty. The Jeffersonian
doctrine Equal rights to all, special priv
ileges 10 none expresses every essential
element Of real Democracy. The rock in
the way OF equal rights is privilege. The
privilege of lawlessness leads to graft
and to a government by the few. Then
there IS privilege conferred by law. The
most conspicuous of such privileges is
the protective tariff. The Democratic
party should make a straightout fight
against the present system of protection
Any tariff for purposes other than reve-
nue. is wrong The time has come to
protect the people from monopoly, instead
of protecting monopoly from the people.
For the first time in our history. the
two most important parties that are sup
posed to divide the people are without a
vital and debatable opinion. To say that
p man is a Democrat or a Republican
is no longer entirely descriptive. The
cnlv party that has a distinct issue
preached and maintained with enthusi-
assn and harmony, is the Socialistic party,
and that is the reason it is making so
much Roadway among the voters of the
country

serious, but 1T is thought he has a
good chance to recover. The man re-
fuses to talk except to say that he is
from Des Moines, Ia, and was look
ing for work. 1t is stated that he has
been living at Drigcoll for the past
| few months, and that while there he

Judge e. 7. Burke paid a tribute
to the German people of North Da-

said in part;
Some oe the people Of my district,

not in favor of our prohibitory law
and would vote against 1t If given
chance, but to their honor and credit
1t must be said that they believe that
the law should be enforced while it is
the law, and because it is the law.
They are law obeyers and law re-
spectors. They believe that an Off
Ger, who has sworn to enforce the law
ard refuses to do so is an anarchist,
and a German jury will convict in a
prohibition cause If the evidence war;
rants a conviction. They are among
out best citizens.

one complaint has been made to me.
Even the druggists seem to be satis-
fed. The better class of druggists
are more tnan satisfied and the worst
class have moved away.
"The truth is that alcohol is hardly
a medicine Doctors who have tes-
titled before me regarding its use all
say that many other drugs can be
used in its place with better results
Many doctors never prescribe alcohol

Suicide By Swallowing Gold.

Suicide by swallowing gold is some
times accomplished in China. The

written by a very learned Chinese for
the Westminster Gazette, of how this
much contested form of suicide is ac-
complished:
"In swallowing gold It is not loose
gold leaf or gold dust that is swaI.
lowed. but a solid lump Of gold. or
even a gold ring, weighing about half
an ounce. Gold Is not at any time
of a corrupting nature, but when a
lump Of II is swallowed and gets into
the bowel 1t fails, on account of its
intrinsic weight. to rise and surmount
the convolutions of the bowels and
can therefore never complete lis pas
