Pot President WILLIAM M'KIXLEY, Of Ohio. Por Vice-President THEODORE ROOSEVELT, Of Xew York. Something of a sensation has been caused by the bringing of a suit against Senator J. K. Jones, chairman of the JJemratlc national committee, for -violation of the anti-trust law of Tex as. A co-defendant with Senator Jones is John E. Searles, one of the biggest trust magnates In America. It is charged that the Jones-Searles combi nation. Known as the American Cotton Company, "constitutes a conspiracy against lawful trade and free competi tion." The American Cotton Company is a monopoly having a capital stock of j:.0"0.(K0 and owning patents which exclude competition In various Import ant processes. Every cotton gin In the South Is forced to use one of the ma chines manufactured t nly by the Jones Searles combination, and the revenue which this great trust has produced is so grat that It has nade Jones a rich man ln a short time. The hy pocrisy of the Democratic position on every question becomes evident when ever the private lives or previous say ings of Its great lights become known. In the Sunday Orogonian William Reid has a thoughtful communication in which he- calls attention to the all Important fact that he great need of the Columbia valley fs cheap fuel stating it as his belief that the devel opment of Oregon coal mines Is "es sential for Portland's supremacy ln the shipping and commerce of this North Pacific coast with foreign countries." We believe that the proposal of Mr. Rtid to organize a "Portland Coal De veloping Company." for the purpose of securing and developing ihe best coal producing property In the state, is a m.Tst excellent one and that upon the decision of the people of Portland up on this matter will largely depend the extent of the commerce between that city and the outside world In the years to coine. But hero where the great port of the Northwest must eventually be located Is where coal producing prop erty should be developed that It may be delivered to suamsnips at the least possible expense. Every dollar In fuel that cat. be saved to a merchant ves sel by .'onilng to Astona will mean greater certiinty of our getting the lion's share of tht traffic between the SCOTT'S EMULSION of cod-liver oil is the means of life and enjoyment of life to thousands: men women and children. When appetite fails, it re stores it. When food is a burden, it lifts the burden. When you lose flesh, it brings the plumpness of health. When work is hard and duty is heavy, it makes life bright. It is the thin edge of the wedge; the thick end is food. But what is the use of food, when you hate it, and can't di gest it? Scott's emulsion of cod liver oil is the food that makes you forget your stomach. We'll tend yon i littl to try, U yon like. iCOn & BOWNE, 409 Pearl ttreet, New York. Northwest and the Orient. No time should bo lost In opening up the cial mines In this county, not only for the sake of the great Increase In wealth and general prosperity among our clt Ixons sure to result. If I ha property foe as promising As experts assert, but above all for the Immense Impetus to Columbia rlvor commerce certain to foe felt at once. THE PERIL FROM P.RYAN. ' St Louis Globe-Democrat. Serator Allison Is another of the country's leading citisens who sounds the alarm regarding the disaster which Prynn's election would bring to the Pnited State!. The Iowa statesman shows that a drift of partisan senti ment which would elect Bryan would he sure to carry with It a Hryanlte bouse, and would reduce the honest money majority In the senate to small figures, and perhaps sweep It away entirely. This Judgment Is so reason able that everybody will be Impressed hy It. In almost every Instance the house of representatives agrees ln pol itics with the president who Is elected at the same time. Generally the party which wins president and house makes a gain ln the senate. The fact that Cleveland made a free silver senate. In lSC'X repeal the silver purchase clause of the act of 1S90 shows the power that a president can wield by the use of the patronage of his office. Howling free coiners like Vorhees were nade gold standard men for the time by the adroit use of the federal offices by Cleveland. There Is a more Immediate peril In the Bryan candidacy, however, than Senator Allison or any of the other honest money speakers hints at Bry an's election would, of course, bring the liver surdard through the repeal of the gold act of March 14, 1900, and this, as every one can see. would preclp' tate a panic which would be as much worse than that of 1853 as the panic of 1S37 was more disastrous than the financial flurry of 1S29. But the panic would not wait for Bryan's Tc se mon ey congress to get to work. It would begin long before Bryan was Inau gurated. It would start on the morn ing of November 7. cr the first moment that the result of the election was made known to the country. Everybody, or nearly everybody, Jn the United States who had any money In the banjss would, on the morning after Bryan's election was made known, go to get his money out and to put ItMn safe deposit vaults. In holes In the ground or in other hoards where It would have a chance to escape the crash that the free silver party's success would preci pitate. Everybody who had any note demanding goid would prepare to pre sent It at the treasury for redemption, so as to make sure of getlng 100c dol lars while they could be had. Enter prises which are already held up on the fear that Ery'an may carry the country would be declared "off," mills would curtail the number of their employes and many of them would close, and the country would have a repetition of the Democratic times which It remembers In 1S93-7, except that the disaster now would be worse than it was then. Here is a feature of the Bryanlte menace which the stump orators ought to put before the country. The tri umph of Bryan would bring Bryanlte times immediately, and would not wait till his Inauguration, four months lat er. There would be ro respite. The consequences of Bryanlsm would begin to be experienced the moment that the triumph of Bryan, w-as learned. The cojntry could not escape even until March 4 the consequences of its folly in putting Bryan in the presidency If It should be guilty of that enormity. Thoughtful persons of all parties are In no sort of doubt about this matter. If AlttreM, Jones. Stone and the rest of the T'.ryanlte wreckers had at this moment any Idea that Bryan would really carry the-country they would start, without a moment's delay, to ?"!1 out all their real estate and per sonal rroperty, put the proceeds Into gold, and lock the gold up. There would not be the cllfthti-st d'-lay on this point. These particular tricksters may tell their dupes that Bryan's elec tion would cause no serious disturbance to the country, or Intimate that the dis turbance would end soon, but they would not take any chances on this themselves. They would run no risks of having their holdings of property or cash cut down to the 45c dollar basis, and would put it Into 100c dollars which would keep the 100c value, that is, Into gold. Bryan would not be willing to take himself the medicine which he tries to inflict on his dupes and the rest of the country. The way to hold the 100c dollar, to stave off panics, and to koep the country prosperous, is to smash Bryanlsm at the polls. "WHAT'S THE TIMET" A booklet with this title, Jutt pub lished by the Chicago. Milwaukee & St. Paul railway, should not only be In the hands of every traveler, but should have a place on the desk of every banker, merchant or other busi ness man. The four "Time Standards' which govern our entire time system and which ore more or lew familiar to most of the traveling public, but by many other little understood, are so fully explained and Illustrated by a series of charts, diagrams and tables that any one who chooses can become convers ant with the subject In question. There are also some twenty-four tables by which almost at a glance, the time at any place can be ascertained In all the principal cities of the world. A copy of this pamphlet may be had on application to George II. Heaf ford. General Passenger Agent, Chicago, enclosing two-cent stamp to pay pos tage. C. J. EDDY. General Agent It Is exasperating to one who know s Foley's Honey and Tar, and knows what It will do. to have a dealer rec ommend something else as "Just the same" or "Just as good" for cold, coughs, croup, U grippe, etc. There Is honor among thieves until they get to associating with lawyers. Don't be deceived or humbugged by people who claim the discovery tf some hitherto unknown herb or root in swamps, or on some mountain or prairie, for the cure of kidney and bladder troubl-.w. Any doctor or drug gist will tell you that such claims are fraudulent. Foley's Kidney Cure sim ply contains remedies that are recog nized by the most skilful physicians as best for these complaints, so don't be credulous or foolish About all the average broker does Is 1 3 see that his customers go brvke. TO STOP A COLD. After exposure or wh-n you feel a cold coming on. take a dose of Foley's Honey and Tar. It never fails to stop a cold If taken ln time. The political machine can only be started by dropping dollars in the slot. "I have always used Foley's Honey and Tar cough medicine and think It the best In the world," says Chas. Render, a newsdealer of Erie, ln. Take no substitute. An unsuccessful speaker often moves his hearers; they get up and go out. The editor of the Fordvllle, Ky Mis cellaneous writes as a pnetrrlpt to a business letter: "I was cured of kid ney trouble by taking Foley's Kidney Cure." Take nothing else. Some people employ a lawyer to draw a conveyance: others use a Jack ass. A CARD. The manufacturers of Banner Salve have authorized the undersigned to guarantee It for turm. cuts, sores, ul cers, tetter, ecsetna and all skin dis eases. You have your money back if It doesn't Jo all It claims. What this country needs Is a new set of molds for shaping public opin ion. ERIGHT'S DISEASE. High living, Intemperance, exposure and many other things bring on Blight's disease. Foley's Kidney Cure will prevent Bright's disease and all other kidney or bladder disorders if taken In time. Take nothing else. Some men acknowledge to being self made, while others blame it c.n their wives. IT HEALS THE LUNGS. When suff ?rtncr from a racking cough take a dose of Foley's Honey and Tar. The soreness will be relieved and a warm, grateful feeling and healing of the parts affected will be experienced. Take no substitute.
