Big of heart and of brain and of body; intrepid in the service of the people; long tried and never found wanting in the cause of true Demo- cracy; against whose integrity no voice has ever been raised; whose leadership would unite the party and draw heavily from the Republican ranks-Champ Clark. The true eIe- ments of strong and virile candidacy are in the Missourian, and as condi- tions political now exist, he is likely to be the nominee.

IN FAVOR OF
 CHAMP CLARK
(washington, D. C.. Post.)


 Harry Pommery, of New York, one the New Willard. MT. Pommery does not believe the Democratic leaders of his State expect to do more than cast one or two complimentary votes for Gov. Dix for the Presidential ,nomi- nation, and he is decidedly of the heir to New Yorks vote on the sec ond or third ballot, and that he also will get the votes of the Pennsylvania delegation and nearly all of New Eng lands delegates.
 .4The thing that impresses me most, '' said MT. Pommery, t'is that Demo- cratic leaders throughout the Empire best vote getter of any man who has been considered as a candidate. Of course, the outcome in New York will depend larges~ upon the decision of Murphy. There was a time not long ago when Gov. Harmon was largely in favor among the business interests of New York, but he has lost ground inameasurably in the last six months, and do not think he will get sim gle delegate from the Empire State"
 (F,ond du Lac, Wis. Reporter)
 Every day brings further assurance of a Democratic victory in 1912 and with Champ Clark looming up as the most promising candidate the Demo cracy has entered the race to win.
 "The next Democratic candidate will be the next President of the United States said Congressman Henry George, Jr., of New York, on his ar rival in Chicago, to be the guest of the Henry George Lecture Associa- tion
 "Champ Clark is the best qualified man in the country for the Presi- dency"

Soda crackers are extremely sensitive to moisture.
 Before the advent of Uneeda Biscuit the only persons who ever tasted fresh, crisp soda crackers were the people in the bakeries.
 Imagine their trip from bakery to your table; exposed to air and moisture kept in grocers' boxes and finally in a paper bag on the shelf in your pantry. Could they be the same as They were the day they were baked?
 Now that we have Uneeda Biscuit-we have perfe ct1y baked soda crackers
 perfectly kept.
 No moisture can reach them no con- taminating influ- enceS can affect their flavOr-their goodness is impris- Oned only to be liberated by you for you when you open the package.
 Alwaysin the moist ure proof package. Never sold in bulk. 5 cents a package. NATIONAL BISCUIT

le Modern Riker Drug Sic Riker Drug Store service is the inevitable result of the natural evolution in the drug business. The old-fashioned dingy little drug store of the past with it's small stock high prices and primitive service and methods must follow the way of the old ; staGe-coach and the kerosene lamp. Only through the combined purchasing power. of the fifty Rker Drug stores has 1t become possible to sell all drug goods prices actually lower than the small dealer has to pay for them at wholesale.
 Only because of our large volume of business can we afford to maintain modern laboratories and facilities for nsurng absolute purity of drugs the cost of which would be absolutely prohibitive the individual dealer.
 We can also afford and do in fact pay better sal. aries employees, accord them better treatment and offer them better opportunities for advancement and in consequence they take greater interest in business and render you courteous, intelligent and satisfactory service.
 Quick sales in the Riker Stores make it absolutely certain that all drugs and merchandise clean, fresh and pure always.

COMMERCIAL
TRAVELLERS
Do Not Generally Prefer Licensed Hotels
Are Abstinent.
Breezy Letter from Editor of The "Sam-
pie Case as to Attitude of Trav-
cling Men on Impor-
tant Question.

.'From time to time there have APP
pcared reports Of proceedings OF State
Hotel Keepers associations from which
st was made to appear that in states
where saloons have been driven out by
local or state wide prohibition, the hotel
keepers have been urged by commercial
Travellers to restore bars to their hotels.
"Wsh to say in behalf Of commercial
travellers generally that there is no in
stance on record where commercial trav-
elers have made any such request, So
far as travelling men are concerned, an
increasing number of them prefer to
stop at hotels where there are no bars"
In line with this sentiment ! quote
YOU from resolution adopted by or
ganized commercial travellers recently in
Indiana. The resolution, in part, fol
lows;-
1.-THE travelling statesmen OF Indiana
are sober, industrious business men, who
have at heart the general welfare and
good of any community they visit, and
they do not wish to be in the light Of
furnishing a demand for the return OF
the 'grog shop within or without the
hotel of any state. We do not desire OF
demand the return of barrooms to hotels
from which they have been excluded by
law, and we prefer to patronize hotels
where liquors are not sold"

termined, but it Is presumed that It
was caused by a defective hue. Flames
were licking up the ell of the builds
ing, which is owned by Mrs Patrick
Riley and is situated nearly opposite
ST. Joseph's church, before the trouble
was discovered, and by the time the
fire department could respond to the
alarm and lay lines of hose from the
mill of the Assawaga Wooden company
such Roadway had been made by the
blaze that it was impossible to subdue
it before considerable damage had
been done. The ell of the houhe was
badly damaged, this being the part
where the fire started, and the other
part of the building suffered much
from the. floods of water poured into
it.
The house is intended for the use of
two families, but it has been wholly
occupied by Mr.. Weaver. His loss,
nos covered by insurance, is principally
on household goods. Persons who were
attracted to the fire assisted the family
in removing much of the furniture,
but it could not all be gotten out. The
loss on the building itself, which is
badly damaged, is said TO be covered
by insurance.
