Don't be disappointed if you fail to get a

inwardly, acts on the circulation and cures all
kinds of piles thoroughly.

Mr.. Chandler has filled numerous i'm

Wells-Fargo Express company at
Sprague, Washington. He served as

Mr.. Wilson, the Candidate.

Mr.. Wilson, the democratic nom-
inee for the presidency is now be-
fore the American people for in
spection. Mr.. Wilson, the college
professor is fairly well known to
the public. but in the profession
of a politician and an executive
the; public has yet to learn of him.;
AS a scholar and an educator he
is perhaps the most profound
student and successful teacher
ever nominated for the presidency
by any political party since the
day of Thomas jefferson. As a
citizen his character is above re-
proach. He stands for high
ideals in all walks of life and has
consistently measured up to these
same ideals in his daily life. As a
presidential candidate can he win

the people to his candidacy? As
avote getter he cannot possibly
rank with Clark or Bryan, and he
has the same handicap in the east
as the latter and in the west he
was not the peoples choice. He
could give Charles Fairbankscards
and spades as living iceberg,
and his nomination will create
about as much enthusiasm as the
arrival Of a Broadway dude at
a country picnic. =. However,
with the opposition Of a d.
vided party, his chances for gain
ing the presidency are clearly
above par. If elected it will then
rem ain to be seen whether the
educatorin practical politics will
be any more successful than the
politician rs practical educator.
