Surgery Is q wonderful, masterful science,
but when it comes to purifying the blood

ONE OF CLARK's JoLLIEs.

We cannot help admire the eminent
resources of the Hon. Champ Clark
when he is put TO II to defend the
Democratic party. His cheerfulness
and simple-hearted trustfulness are
never falling. The other day, in a
speech to the Missourians. he declared
that the Underwood bill had done Just
what the Democrats expected Il would
do. but that it was the best tariff. the
most just measure that had ever been
passed. OF course this was quite COM
forting to his Democratic hearers, as
il was intended 10 be. But ii was at
st. Joseph. last week. that he outshone
al former efforts as a comforter.
Perhaps no other person but Mr..
Clark could have pulled OF what he
cid on that occasion and gotten away
with il. Knowing full well the fluki-
ness OF the Democratic victory in 1912.
when Wilson received 100000 fewer
votes than the combined Republican
strength OF the country. he buoyed up
the spirits OF his St. Joseph audience
with the assurance that the young men
who were in the cradle in 1896 will
vote the Democratic ticket next time.
Surely the proneness OF the Missouri
people 10 being shown" will hardly
permit them TO swallow that
statement. Nothing in the past
history OF the party shows that
anything Of increase is likely to
happen. Ever since 1896 the Repubb.
can vote has swelled. while the Dem
ocratic vote of that year has never
been equaled. With that record. # is
not likely that all the first voters next
year are going to vote with the Demo-
Gratis. Mr. Clark is a great jollier. but
a poor comforter.

Here is what the manufacturers have
to say on that question: "Our cotton
and wooden mills are capable of sup
plying at reasonable prices the entire

such increase in the importation of
staple textiles. as occurred before
the outbreak of the war. must result in
the eurtailment of American produc-

future the cotton manufacturers desire

These are sometimes good. some

But the ecclesiastical con-
