BREAKING ALL RECORDS.

(Apologies to American Economist
Cartoon)
High prices for the food we eat were
never quite so high,
High prices for the clothes we wear
were not so near the sky,
High prices for the shoes and boots
with which our feet are shod,
Are, like the hats upon our heads,
high above the sod.
And Free-Trade is to blame.
One Wilson and his Tariff crew are
easily the worst
This country's ever had at work, and
therefore take the first
Place in making cost of living great,
also the cost to die,
For they have pushed the prices up
till they never we're so high,
And Free-Trade is to blame.
Up up the prices go and up they GER
tainly will rise,
Up, up they soar, and up they'll mount
TIL they get near the skies;
For we do not have Protection from
millmen now at war,
But who'll get to work and undercut
when war shall be no more,
And Free-Trade is to blame.

relief.

If what you just ate is. souring on
your stomach or lies like a lump of
lead, refusing to digest, or you belch
gas and eructate sour, undigested
food, or have a feeling of dizziness,
heartburn, fullness, nausea, bad taste
in mouth and stomach headache, you
can surely get relief in five minutes.
Ask your pharmacist to show you
the formula, plainly printed on these
fifty-cent cases Of Pape's Diapepsin,
then you will understand why dys-
pepuc troubles of all kinds must go,
and why it relieves sour, out-of-order
stomachs or indigestion in five min
utes. "Pape's Diapepsin" is harmless;
tastes like candy, though each dose
will digest and prepare for assimila-
ton into the blood all the food you
eat; besides, il makes you go to the
table with a healthy appetite; but
what will please you most, is that you
viii feel that your stomach and intes-
tines are clean and fresh, and you will
not need 10 resort to laxatives or liver
pills for biliousness or constipation.
This city will have many "Pape's
Diapepsin" cranks. as some people
will call them. but you will be enthus-
iastic about this splendid stomach
too. IL you ever take IL
for indigestion. gases, heartburn,
sourness, dyspepsia, or any stomach

yourself Of stomach misery and indi-

THAT sl.lO euNNrRs, rAx nnI AGAIN

XxTHEN four years ago, the S11O gunners tax law
W was introduced in the Delaware Legislature under
the auspices Of Edward G. Bradford. Jr OF the Della
ware State Game Commission, warned the farmers
IN this State what il meant to them and their sons and
neghbors and suggested that they act for sef-pro-
lection
They failed TO do anything The bill passed and be-
came law Bradford and his associates we're in high
glee They felt that they had put one over on the
farmers
When the next cunning season approached and the
farmers discovered that they and their sons could not
gun, even ON invitation any land except their own
without each paying State tax OF S110 there was a
loud protest in all sections OF the State BY way OF
reprsa farmers banded together particularly in sus-
sex county closed their farms to gunners and ex-
pressed themselves bitterly against the city fellows
who had put the obnoxious bill through the Legisa-
ture
The feeling OF bitterness became so intense that
two years ago, the $11O license law was re-
pealed the State game scheme went TO wreck
and the State Game Commission was almost put out of
business.
Well an effort is being made to put that S11O law
back on the statute books. Senator Gormley Demo
crat, Of Wilmington has set the ball in motion Unless
the farmers bestir themselves the bill will be passed
or course II the farmers and their boys and their
neisnoors wish to pay s11O each for the cunning

suant TO its own particular view Of

rare OF its people demanded.
Consequently every legislative mem

his honest and carefully considered
judgment, OF what will be Just and
most advisable for the general well
fare, in view Of the peculiar cOndi-

particular State.
Any claim or assertion contrary is
unfounded and unwarranted.
IL has been urged by the advocates
Of woman suffrage that inasmuch as
the vote of woman suffrage States
decided the late election in favor Of
resident Wilson. Democratic legis-
lators, especially in view Of their ma
tiOnal conventions suffrage declara-
tion, should now vote in their respec-
tive States to extend the franchise
to women, or else they and their par
ty will be profiting by advantages
gained by false pretences and insin'
cerity.
1t has already been shown that
neither the Democratic nor the Repub-
lican National platforms, ever prom
ised that any State would grant wo-
man suffrage, or pledged its legisla-
tive candidates to do so.
Both the male and female voters of
The Union had these platform provi-
sions and their true and plain mean
ing and purpose. as above set forth
before them in the late campaign, and
hence, they now have no just ground
or right to accuse the Democratic
party Of the nation, or Of any partic-
ular State, Of insincerity. bad faith, or
even ingratitude, because such State
may not deem it lust and wise to
grant suffrage therein to women.
So many various elements entered
into the recent election to influence
and control the voters in California,
Utah, and other States where women
voted, that It is now impossible to
determine with certainty on what po-
litical grounds, whether suffrage.

granting woman suffrage, where he
believes that it will be un-
just or detrimental to the public well

But this declaration and contention
are utterly disproved by the LANGUAGE

Inc one declares that the National
