lucky.

Listen to what l say, and listen
to what want. The right of
equity of human democracy is as
old as human existence. The
Democratic party is as old as the
Declaration of Independence, the
American Republic and it's Con-
stitution.
This party has had the opposi-
ton of divers and various parties,
and some division and dissentions
of its own. 1t was in and on both
sides of the great war of the
sixties, but has enough patriotic
philanthropy to elect of itself and
the opposition---occasionally--a
real Republican Democrat, such as
Jefferson, jackson, Douglas, Lin
coin or Garfield to preside in chief
over its political and social destiny.
But it has at all times had too
much of the real Democracy of
equal chance and fellow fairness
to stand for THIRD TERRIERS; and
for fifty years l have been work
ing, sweating and toiling out tax
cash that wOuld--with such inter-
est as l have had to pay for
mOney-nOw amount to a quarter
of a million dollars. And now l
want the Democratic party at its
August convention in Mt. Sterling
to give me the nomination for
Congress, and if l can't put the
fat third term place hunter Lang

taxpayer in our District more

HETTY GREEN.
She Wtll Turn over All Business 90
Her Daughter.

She WilI Turn Over All Business 90
Her Daughter.
Mrs. Hetty Green, celebrated for
years as the richest and shrewest busi-
ness woman In the world, will soon
retire from active business life and
will turn over the handling OF her
immense fortune, estimated at $780,
100000, to her daughter Sylvia, now
Mrs. Matthew Astor Wilks.
For months 1t has been rumored
that Mrs. Green's health is falling.
and these rumors have been partially
substantiated during the last few
weeks by the irregularity of the aged
woman's visits to her Office In the
Chemical National Bank, and her
feeble appearance when she does ma
terialize there. Among the few per
sons In close touch with Mrs. Green II
Is understood that for years she has
been quietly training her daughter to
successfully manage her immense for
tune, and that since her daughters
marriage to Mr.. Wilks. with its ac-
companying possibility Of an heir, this
training has been increased. It Is re-
ported that the transfer of the active
control of Mrs. Green's millions to her
daughter for management is only q
question of few weeks at most
Hetty Green is rs years old. Her
age. coupled with her monotonoas
business routine. has begun to tell lp-
on her. She no longer Is able to put
the snap and dash into the handling
Of her affairs that characterized her in
the past. although her shrewdness. 1t
is said, is as keen as ever. One OF
Mrs. Green's geratest disappointments
In life. 1t is said. has been the nom
inclination OF her son, Edward H. r.
Green, who lives In Texas, to become
as famous financier as herself. At
one time she put $20,000,000 into
southwestern railroads for her SON, so
that he might become a railroad mag
nate. The accumulation of wealth,
however, is not fad with Edward H
r. Green, who is content to live well
and carry on sufficient business at the
same time to keep his mind occupied.
Sylvia, the daughter, takes more after
her mother, and 1t Is on this account
that the control of her mothers enor-
nous fortune will soon be turned over
to her.-New York American.

1t Is SO.

Doan's Kidney Pills cure the cause of
disease, and that is why the cures are
always lasting. This remedy strength
ems and. tones up the kidneys, helping
them to drive out the body and liquid
poisions that cause backache, head
ache and distressing kidney and
urinary complaints. Hood River peo-
pie testify to permanent cures.
Isaac Ford, of Hood River, Oregon,
says: 1.-THE lapse of time since
publicly endorsed Doan's Kidney Pills
has not changed my opinoin of them:
still take this remedy occasionly and
