The only solution for the quiet,
tame, docile, reconcilable manner
with which the rank and file of
the Republicans receive the "can-
ned press bureau hOgwash" bear
ing the Deering label is that they
are so accustomed to permitting
the men above to do their think
ing that the Deering slush is no
innovation whatever. The Rcpub-
lican party is a great party when
you stop to notice the perfect or
ganization with which it goes in
to every political affray. That
organization, combined with mon
ey and coercion employed by the
infantile industries, is what en-
ables it to win so many victories.
The Democrats, sooner or later,
will find that the whole efforts
directed at the enemy, instead of
being partially scattered among
themselves in party warfare, will
obtain better results. Even at
that, with the Democrats Occa-
sionally biting at each other, ther
is something to command respect
for regardless of party principles
and party organization, the indie
pendence of the individual in
sticking 10 the fundamental prin.
ciple Of right is greater than the
principles of any political party
which can be conceived of and
will correspondingly result in the
best government.-Cass County

Fourteen Millions.

EOuTbe6u
The announcement that the
present Congress intends to ap-
propriate sl4,OOO,OOO for river i'm
proyement will be received with
great satisfaction throughout the
Mississippi Valley.
The 100000 annual appro-
priation contemplated for the
Mississippi below Cairo IS just
double what the Mississippi river
commission is receiving now.
Appropriations totaling $780,
600 per year are now devoted to
the Improvement of the MisSissip-
.pi from Cairo to st. Paul, $780,
600 for the Cairo-St. Louis stretch
and 100000 from st. Louis to
st. Paul. The proposed annual
appropriation of 81, O00,O 900 will in
crease this by more than two and
One-half times. 1t is to be
hoped that the st. Louis Cairo
reach may receive at least half
the amount, as it is there that
the most difficult problem of
channel Improvement in America
confronts the engineer. 1t may
be noted that SOC, 1000. 900 Is the
estimated cost of the completion
of the six-foot project in the Up
per Mississippi.
The appropriation of $4,000
000-not annual for the i'm.
provement of the Ohio is about
one-fifteenth part of the amount
necessary to complete the nine
foot project.
The 100000 for the Illinois
is about o~ne-fourth of the amount
required to dredge a fourteen
foot channel from Utica-where
tie Improvement contemplated
by the State of Illinois is to end
to Grafton, on the Mississippi
The Missouri River is to re
ceive $4,000 900 likewise. This
amount, if granted annually for
ten years, would complete the six.
foot project as far as Kansas
City, revetting the banks in that
important and difficult reach
and doubling the present low.

Cures Dyspepsia;
Trial Is Free

II is a popular mistake that only
wealthy people who eat rich and
highly-spiced foods suffer from dys-
pepsia, or, as it is also known, indi-
gestion. The laborer in the street,
the worker in the field also finds him
self a victim of this disorder. Among
the very greatest sufferers from it are
women.
Dyspepsia is indicated by a constant
feeling Of laziness. by loss OF appetite and
tress after eating, by bad complexion and
lusterless eyes.
There is no surer and speedier cure for
this trouble than DIT. CaldWells Syrup
Pepsin, which d~yspeptics have been using
successfully for twenty years. This great
herb laxative compound cured Capt. Clark,
OF Buffalo. Ia, Of dyspepsia and sour
stomach that he had had for forty years,
or until the lucky day that he heard OF
DR.. Caldwel's Syrup Pepsin. It cured
Joel Adams, OF Montgomery, Ala, after
suffering continuously for sixteen months.
These are only a few Of the many. But
(. is not expensive to be cured with this
grand remedy, as 1t can be bought at any
drug store in a 5O-cent or 81 bottle.
Your very neighbors are probably life
long users Of DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin,
but II you want 70 know without expense
what II will do for you personally, send
your name TO DR.. Caldwell n he will be
glad to send you q free trial bottle. He
Is actually anxious TO have you make q
test OF his remedy.
Thousands OF families everywhere keep
Il in the house against such an emer-
gency as constipation, sour stomach, In
digestion, biliousness, dyspepsia, heart
burn, torpid liver, etc, which may come
on a member of the family any day. It
is pleasant TO the taste, acts gently and
does not grippe. 1t is the great children's
l~aYatlVe tonic.

70 PRANK OF
CELEbRATORS

Louis Mirea, so years cd, a porter in
Hegewisch, met a terrible death last
night at the result of a Halloween
prank. The body of the unfortunate
man was found this morning, the feet
sticking out of vault, into whose
excrement he had fallen headlong, be-
cause the building had been removed
by halloween dastards. Up to noon
today no arrests had been made, but
the police are looking for the guilty
ones.
Louis Mirea was a saloon porter
around Hegewisch and South Chicago
for twenty years. Nobody knows just
when the accident happened as there
were no eyewitnessees. The accident
happened in the rear of 13,257 Ontario
avenue. The accident is one of the
most horrible and unusual occurrences
ever heard Of

ELKS SAY
t WILL Be
W|NDUP

With no counter attractions to take
away the crowds, the Elks feel them
selves justified in expecting large
attendance this evening for what will
positively be the last windup of the S.,
900 bazaar, which has been on in the
Heintz building.
So much stock still remains to be
disposed off that everything must go
at a bargain If the Elks want to get
rid of all. Everything on the first
floor will be removed to the second
floor. where it will be handy for the
auctioneers and the crowds.
Raffles will be there too, and he
will not make much of an effort to get
away from his pursuers this evening,
for he realizes that this will be his
last chance TO have fun with the
crowds.

STRIKING
FEATURES Of
CAMPAIGN
TIMES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPITAL.

Indianapolis. Ind. November. l.
Travelling men who travel over the
state of Indiana and who have their
headquarters in this city report that
the popularity of Senator Beveridge
among the people of Indiana is one of
the striking features of this campaign.
They say that he IS more popular in
Indiana today than any other Indianian
has been in man years.
This feeling of admiration for Sena-
tor Beveridge, they say, is not confined
to any one section of the state, neither
is it confined to the cities, towns
country. 1t seems to be everywhere.
Travelling men say that wherever they
go they find the sentiment that Senator
Beveridge ought to be returned to the
Senate. They declare that if the Senator
were elected by popular vote of the
PEOPLE Beveridge would probably re-
cieve the largest vote ever given to any
candidate in the state.
There is another feature of the cam
paign that is notable, and that is the
great interest that is being taken all
