HOWVICTORYWASWON

Bedding, Nov. 10-The political re- versal underwent by this town in Tuesdays election was simply aston ishing. From Republican majorities of 100 in Presidential years and of from 50 to 90 in State elections. to a Democratic majority ranging from 22 to 153, is surely flop. The only one on the Republican ticket to receive a majority was Congressman Hill, and he beat Wilson by but nine. Leading the joyful procession of Democratic candidates was Edward M. Bradley, a representative nominee. with 153 ma- jority, the largest ever given by this town for any candidate. His oppon- ent was B. B. Banks. Two years ago Banks was elected to the Legislature by about 40. On Tuesday he got a total of 95 or only a few more than at the caucus which nominated him. It was for Mir Banks a deep, deep bur- 1al, an extinguishmen a consign- ment to oblivion. None of the results gives more solid satisfaction than the election as representative of Lester O.. Peck whose majority over Aaron H. Sanford was 6s. The latter got IA Democratic votes, a small number compared with the prediction claims made for him in that respect. Voll- mers majority of about 20 would have been much larger but for the telling work put in for Hawley by Deputy Sheriff Banks, work, however, which did not save his chief. Down in the general submersion went Attorney s. c. Shaw, whose active campaigning brought him considerable Democratic support, but who was beaten by J. B. Sanford for judge of probate by about 50
 Georgetown, heretofore the towns Republican stronghold gave Connery, the Democratic Senatorial candidate, 94 votes to 21 for his opponent. That village, the home of Ben Banks and also of MT. Connery, cast but seven straight Republican ballots and gave the entire Democratic ticket major ity. Baldwin's. in the two voting dis tricts, was S1. For the first time the Socialist ticket figured in the election, four of that party's ballots being cast In the count eight ballots were re- jected, most of them for want of a mark in the circle at the top of any of the columns. Very nearly full vote was cast and autos did large part of the transportation. MT. Peck had two on the job. and Bradley, Shaw, Connery and A. G. Barnett one each. Outwardly everything was quiet, but all hands worked to the utmost and the laggard voters were rounded up with a thoroughness never surpassed here

NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA
 A CURE FOR ALL
Not Patent Cure-AlI, Nor a Modern
 Miracle. But Simply a Rational Cure for Dyspepsia

In these days of umbuggery and deception, the manufacturers of pat ent medicines ,as rule, seem to think their medicines will not sell unless they claim that it will cure every dis ease under the sun. And they never stomach troubles. They are sure to claim that their nostrum is absolutely certain to cure every dyspept1c and he need look no further.
 In the face of these absurd claims it is refreshing to note that the pro- prietors of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have carefully refrained from making any undue claims or false representa- tfons regarding the merits of this most ercellent remedy for dyspepsia and stomach troubles. They make but one claim for it, and that is. that for indigestion and various stomach troubles Stuart'S Dyspepsia Tablets is a radical cure. They go no farther than this, and any man or woman suffering from indigestion, chronic or nervous dyspepsia. who will give the remedy a trial will find that noth- ing is claimed for 1t that the facts will not fully sustain.
 It is a modern discovery, composed of harmless vegetable ingredients &C., ceptab1e to the weakest or most deli- cate stomach. Its great success in cur NA that the medicinal properties are such that it will digest whatever whole some food is taken into the stomach, no matter whether the stomach is in good working order or not. It rests the overworked organ and replenishes the body, the blood, the nerves, cre- ating a healthy appetite, giving re- freshing sleep and the blessings which always accompany a good digestion and proper assimilation of food
 In using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets no dieting is required. Simply eat plenty of wholesome food and take these Tablets at each meal, thus as- sisting and resting the stomach, which rapidly regains it's proper digestive power, when the Tablets will be no longer required.
 Nervous Dyspepsia is simply a condi- ton in which some portion or portions of the nervous system are not proper ly nourished. Good digestion invigor- stes the nervous system and every or gan in the body.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold bv all druggists at 50 cts. per package.

Our April Storm.

A hail storm passed over Ply
mouth Friday evening, but its
extent was limited and very little
damage was done. This storm
was followed by rain Saturday
morning and very heavy rain
in the evening. Sunday was cold
with drilling rain in the after
noon, which was followed by
snow commencing about ten o.
clock in the evening and contin-
uing until two O'Clock Monday
morning. The temperature was
one degree above freezing but
roofs were covered with two
inches OF snow at daylight. The
weather remained cold all day
Monday until the wind changed
from the south to the northwest
and became warmer a peculiarly
of temperature probably never
witnessed in this locality.
The weather was warmer
Tuesday morning with wind
from the north, than it was Mon
day morning with the wind from
the south. Fruit trees were in full
bloom and the limbs were weight
ed down by the snow. The fruit
buds seem to have suffered little
damage, but it is too early yet &c

SUMMER RATES FIXED.
Lines East of Mississippi River
to Give One Fare Excursions
Plus So This Season.

AT the meeting OF passenger
officials representing the railroads
east of the Mississippi river, it
was decided to make the same
reduced rates for summer tourists
excursions this summer as were
inaugurated last year. The rates
will be in effect from June / to
September 81, with a thirty-day
return limit, and will be on the
basis of a fare and a third, plus
SO for the round trip, which re-
pres cnts considerable saving
over tie ordinary charges
Last summers rates were in
the nature OF experiments to off
set competition of the western
roads which have made low sum
mer rates Tor many years. The
eastern systems felt at first some
hesitancy about making any re
auctions, but the experiment
proved SO successful in increasing
traffic that it was decided to take
siilar action this season.
