Therefore, I hasten to beg of you to see to It that there Is no word In it that reflects upon the personal honor and Integrity of President Roose velt "An evening Post editorial Indicates but little care was taken In that direction toward myself by the compiler of the Republican textbook, but let there be no rejoinder in kind or otherwise. "I feel that you need no reminder; still my anxiety Impels me to send this cau tion. Very truly yours, "ALTON B. PARKER." PARKER WILL COME AGAIN. Candidate Will Meet Lieutenants Be. fore Issuing r-Ms Letter. NEW YORK, Sept 17. It was said at Democratic National headquarters to day that Judge Parker will make an other visit to New York within a week or before the. publication of his letter of acceptance, and that the personal conferences between the nominee and his managers will be repeated as often as necessary. Just why Chairman Taggart, of the National Committee, found it necessary to leave the city on the evening of Judge Parker's visit was explained to day by Mr. Fanning, Mr. .Taggarfs chief assistant at Democratic headquar ters. Mr. Fanning is vice-chairman of the Indiana State Democratic Commit tee. Some weeks ago, he said, he vis ited that state, and after a consulta tion with state leaders it was decided that a visit of the National Chairman to Indiana was desirable. He promised them to Induce Mr. Taggart to go to Indiana, And on his return to New York placed the matter before the chairman in such a manner that the visit was ar ranged. Appointments were made at Indianapolis and French Lick -Springs, and the date fixed. It was not until noon of the day on -which Mr. Taggart was to arrive that he was Informed by Judge Parker by telephone that the Judge intended to como t.o New York. Mr. Taggart explained the situation to Judge Parker and suggested It would be Impracticable to cancel the date to Indiana.

The Republican party of Chicago formally opened the political campaign tonight by a grand rally at the, Auditorium under the aus pices of the Hamilton. Club. Senator Foraker, of Ohio, was the principal speaker of the evening, and his ad dress provoked great enthusiasm. George A. Knight, of San Francisco, who seconded the nomination of Pres ident Roosevelt In the Republican Na tional Convention, followed Senator Foraker. Mr. Knight caused much laughter and applause by his address, which was filled with clever hits. Mr. Knighf s address was almost wholly .devoted to the Philippine question- He quoted from Judge Parker's speech ac cepting the Democratic Presidential nom ination on this subject and answered, the various arguments. He denied the Ad ministration had ever intimated that the islands were to be kept permanently as American territory, but he made an ex tended Targument In favor of their reten tion as a part of American territory. Ho cited statistics to show, that almost all the people of the tropics are governed by tho nations of tho temperate zone. The new policy of preferential duties between mother country and colonies, which is being adopted by the European nations would, the speaker declared, soon placo the United States at a great disadvantage so far as Far East purchaso of tropical products is concerned, if the Philippines were given up. Ho denied that the isl ands are being exploited by the Ameri cans and declared, on the other hand, this Government Is expending money in the ' development of the country's re sources and the education of its people. "So long," said he, "as a. great political party in America continues harping for our premature withdrawal from those Islands, so long will capital, to any ap preciable extent, refuse to go there; pros perity will .slumber and sooner or later even the Government will languish a puny bankrupt. National greatness and material progress go hand in hand. The Filipinos themselves are beginning to see that in order t6 place their country In the list of modern states, their advance in culture, education and science of govern ment must have for balance 'a corre sponding degree of material progress. This requires capital and the knowledge and experience to use It." Fusion Campaign Opened in Nebraska LINCOLN, Neb., .Sept 17.

Nervines are unnecessary. Peruna has cured more cases of nervousness than any other medicine in existence, simply because it cures the conditions upon which nervousness depends. A Letter From a U. S. Senator's Wife. Mrs. Verona E. Roach, wife of the late Senator Roach, of North Dakota, writes from Larimore. N. D.: "I can cheerfully recommertd your excellent remedy, Peruna. Indeed. I know of no other remedy as good as yours. It is a grand tonic." Verona, E. Roach. We have on file many thousand testi- monlals like the ones given above. We can only give our readers a slight glimpse of tha vast array of unsolicited indorsements we are receiving every month.

The Secret of Long Life and How to Overcome Waste. To ''Know thyself? Is to take advantage of life's secrets and equip one's self with an armor which.will successfully resist the attack of disease in the battle of life. The old idea of fate or "kismet," and that a person al ways dies when his time comes, is now exploded. Every mechanism, wheth er made by God or man, has a definite amount of wear and its life can be lengthened or shortened accord ing to the care that is given it If ac cident or careless ness destroys the works of the watch, or the human mechanism an end comes to its usefulness, but it has not actually wom out." Man's system at times gets rusty like the wheels of the watch and only needs a little cleaning and oiling to put it in shape for life's battles. An imitation of nature's method of re storing waste of tissue and impoverish ment of the blood and nervous force is used when you take an alterative extract of herbs and roots, without the use of alco hol, like Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covery. This vegetable medicine coaxes the digestive functions and helps in the assimilation of food, or rather enables the organs to take from the food just the nutriment the blood requires. ProC J. E. Tanguay, of 6i St Peter Street, Que bec, writes : I bad been ill for some time with La Grippe and did not regain my strength. With in a week after using Dr. Pierce's Golden Med ical Discover?, I was able to be around again, and I found that my system was entirely free from any of the bad effects of La Grippe. I now keep a bottle of the 'Golden Medical Dis covery' on hand, and, when I catch cold, take a' few doses, which keeps me in perfect health. As a builder up of lost strength and vitality t do not believe your 'Discovery' has an equal." Accept no substitute for" Golden Medical Discovery." There is nothing "just as good " for diseases of the stomach. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, tha besS laxative for old people. They can con stipation and biliousness
