us our sulphur and molasses out of the big yell

stuff gritty? 1t makes my teeth ache even to
think of it right nowl Gritty and bitter and so
hard to get rid of the taste of! That's the stuff

prevent boils and then when we got boils she'd
turn right around and say that the boils were
worth at least ten dollars apiece to usi / re-
member how l used to VOW and yum that when
grew up I'd have big mess of sulphur and
molasses mixed every spring, just for the fun

The Hazslton Mugwump quotes
app,ovingly q paragraph from a
South Dakota newspaper calling at
tention to the fact that the chief
losses Of the Republican party were
not in the west, where the Progress
siye Republicans are stronger than
in the east. But, if the Pro9ressives
Of the west had been Of the Thurston
stripe, the Democratic success would
have been as great as in the east.
Fortunately, most Of the Progressive
leaders in those states were like Sen
ator Cummins If Iowa. who in his
speeches pleaded with his Progress
sive followers to vote for Repub-
licans TO, state and congressional po-
sitions, regardless Of whether they
were Stalwarts or Insurgents. And
it was so in this state, where Gron-
ma, Helgeson. Devine and other In
surgent leaders were out working
faithfully for the entire Republican
ticket at the recent election. But
while they were doing this, the Ha-
zelton editor was informing the
people "a few Of them that he'd
have "tovote the straight democrat
ic ticket this year. /" and stabbing in
the back every Republican county
candidate-except his pet, Casey
who had opposition.

Again in every city and village
throughout the nation the Red
Cross seals or stamps" as they
are generally termed-are for sale.
They are now to be obtained in Lin
ton. In the rush and hurry Of BUSH
ness and pleasure, how frequently
we overlook opportunities for doing,
by an expenditure entirely within
our means. great deal Of good. 1t
is we'll known to every reader that
a worldwide and largely successful
fight is being made against con-
sumption. That almost angelic
organization, the Red Cross Society,
is the militant factor in the contest
for the saving Of consumptives. 1t
has become a settled fact in the
minds Of the medical profession that
fresh air and sunlight are the chief
remedies against this disease that
from time immemorial has scourged
the human race. Until compare
lively recent date there was though,
to be no cure for it, and the relative
or dear friend who was the victim
of tuberculosis was looked upon as
doomed to lingering death. The
campaign against this insidious dis
ease requires money, with which to
provide fresh-air trips to the coun-
try and fresh-air hospitals. 1t can
only be raised through the chart
table action of the people. and the
people have nobly responded. To
show what these small contributions
aggregate, we give the figures Of

Macdonald's Man up at Hazeltol

Macdonald's Man up at Hazelton
gets very angry because the Record
referred to his purchasable sheet as
the Hazelton Mugwump. Well,
were we not correct in the appella-
ton? "Mugwump' denotes poll
tician or newspaper that has no
fixed principles on anything. Isn't
this true regarding Thurston and his
paper? Isn't it fact that he had
never word to say against the Re-
publican organization of this state
until Burke gave Thnrston and the
double-dealer. Macdonald who said
he would fight against America in
case Of war with Great Brltlan-a
position at Bismarck Did any read
er Of the Mugwump ever see until
Thurston got the position from
Burke that some real Democrat
should have had in that paper
any great amount of enthusiasm for
the Insurgent cause? In fact. has
anybody ever seen in Thurston's pa
per, during the many years it
has been published By him, line
for or against any Of the great ques-
tions that have been before the peo-
pie of the state? In private talk he
has always expressed himself strong
ly against the prohibition law; but
have you ever known in a single in
stance Of his having had the cour-
age Of his conviction" to the extent
of making his opinions public
through the medium of his paper?
So far as Thurston and his sheet are
concerned, not once since he assum-
ed ownership of the Mugump has he
voiced single sentiment on a lead
ing issue unless it was done in an
attempt to defeat Republicans
who couldn't be bought by some
Democratic politician Of the Burke
stripe through the attainment of an
official position. His sneaking meth
DDS were well shown in the recent
campaign. He published the entire
Republican ticket in his paper. Had
johnson been elected, he could have
SAID: See how loyal was to the Re-
publican ticket! ought to keep
