WASHINGTON. D. C, Oct. 16-Should
the Jamestown Exposition be recorded
failure it will be an everlasting shame,
ior it is one of the most complete expo
sitions of ita class ever held. Those who
tbH it under the impression that it will
rma flm mat expositions of Chicago
mad SL Louis in size or splendor will be
disappointed, but at Jamestown are many
most interesting exhibits, the choicest of
their kind, and anv one, not excepting
the Was exposition visitor, will be amply
repaid by a few days there. it wouia 00
difficult to imagine a. more beautiful loca
tion though one not easy of access.
Chesapeake Bay is seen at ita best from
th Kxnositioii rounds and close at hand
aire Norfolk, Portsmubth, Fort Monroe,
Old Point Comfort and historic and
interesting nlace. The buildings are dis
tinctly good; far superior to the average
f such structure for most or tnem were
constructed to, remain permanently and
are of brick or frame where at former
expositions they were composed of stafT
The result is they have sood the wear
and weather ferv well-and are as fresh
'.' today as at any time. If any criticism
eould be made of the buildings it is that
the manasement has erred in expend
ing so much in their construction when
simpler and cheaper buildingsNrould have
answered the purpose the ' expendi
Sure in this direction is probably largely
responsible for the lack of funds to op
erate and advertise the exposition, which
ass hampered it almost to extinction.
'Early visitors were doubtless greatly
disappointed, for it has only been within
the apst month or so that the exposition
aonld be called complete. Even now work
is progressing on the roads and Valks
and, goodness knows, was needed. But
the thousands who have visited the expo
sition latelv. agree that tor its size, and
it is not small by any means, it equals
any other. Analyzing the causes which
lave operated to prevent it from having
the success is deserves the situation may
r be ascribed to poor management, compar
ative inaccessibility, dissentions and the
plethora of adjacent attractions. $t is
safe to assume that the Jamestown Ex
positions has been visited by as many if
: not more persons " froro a distance, in
i proportion to its size, than either St.
Louis or Chicago. As it .has practically
local territory to draw on the great
Tajority of people passing through its
es come from a distance. But, alas
thfc exposition, they did not stay,
i, the average visitor to Chicago or
Louis spent a , week, the average
r to Jamestown spends two days,
is partly because of the desire to
James' ow i'nnr ., 40 miles up
fraes River, Fort Monroe, Norfolk,
a Beach and others, and partly
1 most visitors come one way and
led back another. That is to. say, those
from the west are routed througn the
south one way, and by way of Washing
tnn. Buffalo. Niagara Falla, New York
and ven Boston, the other. In their de
sire to visit other places they slight the
pxnosition. Thus, while tne travel nat
been; very heavy, the exposition has
been benefited slightly in comparison to
thA anrronndinff and adjacent territory.
The railroads have contributed to this
outcome bv establishing validating Offl
rs elsewhere than on the exposition
! grounds, so that many visitors, taking
advantage of the cheap rates, pass
through without even stopping a day
at the exposition.
At this writing no one can predict
the finish of the exposition but should
the government take hold of it, many
hope it will be continued through De-
. t . -i! -1
cember. Just now tne exposiuon is v
ita best and the weather superb, and
the weather should continue fine through
December. It is between jsovemrjer ist
and January 13 that wealth and fashion
passes that way en route for Honda.
The nolitical future of Lieutenant
General Corbin, retired, is being watch
ea Wlln interest vj am umuj mcuu. ,u
Washington and elsewhere. General tor
bin hails from the Buckeye State, which
is equivalent to saying be ia a natural
born politician. Through his career in
the. armv he maintained his legal real
dence in Ohio and now they are talking
of sending him to Congress) Be snoum
have stronff claims ia he desires the
honor for during the Spanish War Gen
eral Corbin waa as close to the Jate
President McKinley as any one active
in thA mnduet of that flurry. He ia
- ...
very popular in Washington circles ana
his lon term of service in the army, and
esneciallv a adiutant-eeneral, has given
him an insight into governmental affairs,
and an acquaintance which would prove
of ffreat value to his district. His friends
would welcome his return in the role of
Congressman. It is interesting to note
that General Corbin still retains a senti
mental regard for Gen. Grant, his old
commander. It was a suggestion from
General Grant that kept Lieutenant
Corbin in the armv after the Civil War
and in memory of their friendship uen.
Corbin recently erected a tablet on tne
snot in Ohio where formerly stood the
house in -which Grant was born. Gen.
Corbin is in his sixties, vigorous in mind
and bodv. Should he decide , to enter
Ohio politics he will be heard from.

KheumatLsra is easier to avoid than
to cure, states a well-Jknown authority.
Every man, woman and child here should
dress as warmly as possible, and, above
all else, keep the feet dry. Avoid colds
and exposure, and . don't become con
stipated. -. -:
Rheumatism is slrictly a blood disease,
caused by inactive kidneys, which,
through cold or exposure or improper
diet, fail in their duty of filtering the
rheumatic poisons from, the blood.' This
poisonous waste matter, uric acid, oxal
ate of lime, urea, etc., if not strained
from the blood promptly, decomposes
and settles about the joints and muscles,
causing rheumatic disease.
In damp or chilly cold ' weather the
kidneys are made to , do double work.
The pores of the skin all over the body
do not assist in eliminating the poisons
of tlie body, throwing this work to
the kidneys, which become clogged and
feeble, thus causing not only rheuma-
.
tism, but all forms of kidney troubles,
back ache, weak bladder ana urinary
troubles, and sometimes ' terrible blood
disorders. ' v.',' .- ' , '
. At the first sisn of any1 of these
troubles the following simple prescrip
tion should be mixed and taken in' tea
spoonful doses after each meal and at
bedtime: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one
half ounce: Compound Kargon, one
ounce; Compound Syrup aarsaparuia,
three ounces, i -
Anv eood nharmacvi can supply these
ingredients and all the mixing required
is to shake well in a bottle.,

of Kentucky, said to Julius Chambers,
representing the International News
Service:
'Party lines have censed to exmt. We
must have a new party a division of
the people upon other lines. ihe 01a

party. Rooseveltism Is like Jfryanisra
in 1890 like it in many ways. Bryan
would have Mexicanized our currency;
Koosevelt's re-election will Mexicanize

White House, by all means let it be for
life. Make him king; Do more than
that make him Emperor!"
The colonel than spoke of the hope
lessness of Democracy until William

"Of eourse, politics is the life's blood

after a bit of ' historical reminiscence.
