Republican Leaders Feel
Certain of Carrying State.
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

Trenton, Oct. 23.-The Republi-
can leaders are confident that they
Will carry the state. The state cam
paign enters upon it's final stage this
week, and the Republicans are plan
ming a dashing finish for the en-
deavor to elect the whole party
ticket. County committees are CO.
operating with the state committee
and every national and state speaker
available has been assigned to meet
ings planned in all sections of the
state. The state is also being flood
ed with Republican literature, par
ticularly that dealing with the tariff
issue.
The Taft lieutenants in this state
declare hat since the tariff issue has
been brought squarely to the front
here, there has been a strengthening
of the Republican lines. Reports re-
ceived at state headquarters in New
ark, they say, show that a tide is set
ting steadily toward Taft.
AS showing the strong efforts be-
ing made in behalf of the Republi-
can ticket, it was stated today that
in several of the counties more than
fifty meetings have been arranged
to take place between now and cleo
ton day.
The one big statewide meeting
will be the convention Of Republican
clubs to be held in the Trent thea
ire, this city, Thursday afternoon.
So confident are the Republican
managers that this gathering will
demonstrate the Taft strength, they
have engaged Masonic Temple near
the theatre for an overflow meeting
Reports received indicate hat large
delegations will be here from practi-
cally all the counties. Atlantic,
Camden, Passaic. Union, Monmouth
and a few other counties 1t is ex-
pected will send very large delega-
tons. There will be many marching
clubs and much of the old-time en-
thusiasm which has been missing
since the abandonment of the torch
light professions and the elimina-
ton of the old style state conven-
tions.

l AHH WILLING TO PROVE 4
GAN CURE YOU
TO That md Ann Giving Away $40, 1000
Worth Of Medicine

In order to show beyond all doubt
that [ am in possession of a medicine
that will cure kidney trouble, bladder
trouble or rheumatism, l will this year
give away ten thousand dollars worth
of this medicine, and anyone suffering
from these diseases can get a box of
it absolutely free. All that is neces-
sary is to send me your address,
l don't mean that you are to use
part of it or all of it and pay me if
cured. I mean that I will send you
a box of this medicine absolutely free
OF charge, gift from me to the Uric
Acid sufferers of the world, so [ can
snow them where and how they may
be cured. I will not expect payment
for this free medicine, nor would I
accept it now or later if you sent it,
1t is free in the real meaning of the
word
For twenty five years-a quarter of
century, have been trying to con-
vince the public that 1 have something
genuine, something better than others
have for-the cure of stubborn, chronic
rheumatism, for tcrturing kidney back
ache, for annoying calls to urinate
But 1T is hard to convince people
they try a few things unsuccessfully
and give up all hope and refuse to lis
ten to anyone thereafter. Happily
am in a position now to demonstrate
to sufferers at my own expense that L
have a medicine that cures these dis
eases. / don't ask them to spend any
money to find out; don't ask them to
believe me, nor even to take the word
of reliable people, but all I ask is that
they allow me to send them the medi-
cine at my own cost. That is surely
fair.
To this end I have set aside ten
thousand dollars, which will be used
to compound my medicine. Much of
it is ready now to be sent out, all of
it fresh and standard. There will be
enough for all sufferers, though there
be thousands of them. And anyone
who needs it can get some of it free.
But in order that 1 shall know that you
have disease for which this medicine
is intended, I ask you to send me some
of your leading symptoms If you have
any of the symptoms in the list printed
here, you need my medicine and if you
will write me I will gladly send you
box of it free with full directions for
your use. Look the symptoms over, see
which symptoms you have, then write
me about as follows: Dear Dr., /
notice symptoms number'-here put
down the number give your age, full
address and send it to me. My address
is DR. r. Frank Lynott, 4847 Occiden-
tai Building, Chicago, Ill.
The ten thousand dollars [ am spend
ing for the compromising of my medi-
cine is only a part of the money am de-
voting to this cause, for the package
of medicine L send you will be fully
prepaid at my expense. From any
expense or obligation. Just tell others
who you know are suffering. who sent
you the medicine that cured you.
l am promising to give away ten
thousand dollars worth Of medicine,
and I will do that; 1 am promising to
send any sufferer who writes me, a box
Of this medicine and full directions free

of charge, and I will do that I can
say further that this medicine has been
vouched for according to law as COM
plying in every detail with all require
ments. 1t will stop rheumatism, it will
stop pain and backache, it will stop
too frequent desire to urinate; it will
heal, soothe and strengthen. You will
be better in every way for having
taken it, There is not an ingredient
that can injure; not one but will bene-
ut. All that [ ask is that you use it
yourself so that you may be personally
convinced.
Owing to the large number of re-
quests, have had ten thousand more
copies of my medical book printed This
book is new and up to date and con-
tains complete descriptions symptoms,
causes effects and cures of kidney,
bladder and rheumatic diseass All who
write for the free medicine will be
sent copy of this grand illustrated
medical book-the largest ever written
on these diseases for free and general
distribution
If you need medicine such as have
If you are anxious to be cured and
don't want to spend any money LOOK

symptoms over and let me hear from
you today

SMIA given for the nomination of
III vi Herbert S. Phillips, Of Tampa,
now the active and efficient
State Attorney for the Sixth Judicial
Circuit of Florida, than the ones pub
lished in Dixie in the issue Of Sep
TENDER %, 1911, which are herein
set forth as follows:
This week Dixie proceeds to dis
cuss the why's and wherefores Of the
aspirations Of candidates for Con-
gress in the three congressional dis
tricts and therefrom draw conclus-
ions.
Dixie will therefore dissect the
prospects in the first congressional
district, which lie between two candi-
dates, S. M. Sparkman, the incum-
bent, and II. S. Phillips, his rival.
Phillips is young man, evidently
in the thirties, lean and active, dark
haired, large nosed, wide mouthed,
and steel-blue eyed, with an incisive,
rapid-flre style Of eloQuence, with a
thirst for digging facts out Of the
musty records, and then throwing
them at an opponent with the force
of thirteen-inch shell.
Born Floridian, son of Metho-
dist minister, used TO privations, self
made, a true-blue consistent advocate
of the people sprung out of the loins
of the good middle class.
Sparkman is an elderly man, pos
