Children
How sad it is to see weak
children boys and girls who
are pale and thin. I hey can
not enjoy the sports of child
hood, neither are they able
to Drofit bv school life. Thev
I are indeed to be pitied. But
ii i t it.
incie is iui urcin.

has helped such children for
over a quarter or a century.
Your doctor will tell you it is both
food and medicine to them. They
begin to pick up at once under lis
use. Their color improves, the tlesh
becomes more firm, the weight
increases and all the full life and
vigor of childhood returns again.

A Prehlstoi Ic Man.
Editor Democrat:
A man by the name of H . W. Corbett,
living in Portland, who carries aoout
bim tbe mar.a of a prehistoric age, lias
written a letter to tbe Portland Oregou-
ian calling eitention to the contents of
an address issued by tbe Republican
Central committee of Oregon in 1859.
The antiquated old gentleman says be
publishes it now "when sound motley
democrats of the Tbomas U. Benton type
in tbe good old dayB of sound democracy
areliniog up with sound money republi
cans.'' Mr. Corhett tells a truth more
significant than he knew, and far more
damaging to (.old bug republicanism
Han if the same truth bad been told by
a demorrat. Now, who wete Ibe eound
money democrats of 1859? It Ib quite
evident tbat Mr. Corbett lias forgotten
or be never would have introduced the
matter. Now the ironey in use in 1859
was silver and gold, and the paper issue
of state banks. Democrats in that day
were called hard money men (not sound
moDey) because they were opposed to
paper money. Tbe wbigs were in favor
of national banks and consequent issue
of paper money. Democrats were op
posed to paper money and bence were
called bard money men. For more than:
Uty five years pritr to 1659 the govern
ment of the United States had been en
gaged in the fiee and unlimited coinage
of silver and gold at the ratio of 10 to 1,
and all these sound money democrats of
that time that Mr. Corbett referij to were
ardently in favor ol gold and silver thus
coined by the government. These eound
money democrats were all bimetallists
just as Bryan and tbe great party be re
presents now are. They were just as
different in their vUwb on tbe question
of money from the gold bug republicans
of today as the true democrala of today
differ from the republicans of today. A8
Mr. Corbett seems to be utterly ignorant
of the history of tbe times that he refers
to, we takeleasure in informing him
that at that time there bad been no leg
islation bj congreBB unftiendly to silver.
Silver was passing among tbe people
everywhere throughout the United
States just as freely as was gold, and no
designing men, wholly actuated by sel
fishness bad attempted to commit tbe
crime tbat wbb afterwards consummated
Id 1873. From the time when the free
coinage law waa passed by congress in
1782 to tbe time when free coinage wse
discontinued in 1873, (a period of 81
yearB) there bad been nothing wrong
with Bilvor. It had caueed no dittrub
ance iu the financial world. It bad r.o
enemies. It Btood as high in the esti
mation of the people ae did gold. i
completely and effectually performed
the functions of money equally with gold
And even when the mailed! band of the
money shark was ruthlessly laid upon
the free coinage law in 1873, sliver wbb
then at a premium over gold. Silver
was never a cheap money nor a depreci
ated money until republican legislation
made It so. Legislation as uufriendly
to gold aa that which has been heaped
up against silver would equally depreci
ate gold .
Mr. Corbett eeeirB to felicitate himself
with the idea that the so-called gold bug
democrats will again line up with Mc
ICinley republicans as tliey did in 189G.
If he thus believes let bim at once be
uadecaived. Foi a more disgusted set of
men cannot be fonnd anywhere or at any
tune than these relf came democrats who
voted for McK.nley in 1S98. Andeveiy
where throughout the country they are
hustling back to get into the democratic
bund wagon. Mr. Corbett evidentlv es
teems this democrattis vote thai was enst
against Mr. Bryan in 1890 as of vital sig'
niflcance, and so it is for it was Ibat vote
tbat saved McKinley. highly or ninety
per cent of this vote will be cast for Mr.
Bryan this year and thus safely land bim
in I he White House. Again must this
truth be impressed upon the mind of Mr
Corbett: Tho democrats of 1859 whom
he calls aound'money democrats held
identically the same money views with
reference to silver and gold aa do the
Bryan democrats of today.

The Oregoniaa sera plainly that tbe
charge of imperialism so repeatedly
brought against its party is having a tel
ling effect upon the minds of all sober
thinking people. Thecharga la one of
great moment to all who love a demo
cratic or republican form of government.
The abrogation of tbe fundamental prin
ciples found in the Declaration of Inde
pendence and the constitution of the
United States is eo vitally serioae tbat
thous ands of tbe moBt patriotic repobli-
ana of tbe land are raising tbeir warn
ing voices in tbe most solemn manner
aga'nst it. Tbe attempt to belittle tbete
republican protests will only t6nd to In
crease tbe earnestness and seal of t'-ose
who make them . There cau be no donbt
tbat iLcje tbousanda of republicans have
jiiBt came' for their alarm. The Oregon-
ian has declared, and truly; too, tbat to
impotfl a tariff duty upon soode shipped
from for to Rico to any otber part of tbe
United Stales would be tbe very worst
kind of imperialism. It is a matter oi
wonder then that tbe more patriotic of
tbe republicans are alarmed at Hie ion
psrialiatic tendency of tbe policy ot tbe
McKinley administration? Not at all.
Tbe only world ar is that a far- greater
number are no! raising their. voicee
against the tendency. TbiB policy. of'
imperialism and the malignant injury
visited upon tbe mataes by thetiuetsare
to be the vital issues of the campaign
now opening up.
Several republican papers without any
authority whatever for it are making the
statement tbat Dr. Bernard Daly ie a gold
democrat and a banker. Tbe statement
ie made purely to influence silver repub
licans to turn back to Tongue, who made
one of the beBt bl-metalic arguments in
bis Oregonian letter ever made in Oregon,
But it will not work, for tbey know that
tbe statement is falee. Mr. Daly is net
a gold democrat, nor is he a banker any
more than owning some s'ock in a bank
makes him one. Several men in Albany
own bank stock who aronot called bankers-
He is a bl-metallBt and a reason
able man in all bis positions, an honest.

excellent practice and fair dealing has
accumulated a good property, iocluding
some bank stock. People are no longer

Sleeplessness marks the very climax
of human suffering. It is only a step
removed from insanity. When sleep no
longer restores the exhausted nature, the
struggle with disease cannot last long.
The starting point of the nervous dis
orders which produce ill - health and
sleeplessness, is generally a diseased
condition of the womanly organ. Re
store these organs to sound health and
the appetite comes back, the day's work
no longer wearies, and sleep is sound
and refreshing. Dr. Pierce s Favorite
Prescription cures diseases of the wom
anly organs. It stops the drains which
weaken women ; it heals the inflamma
tion and ulceration, and cures female
weakness.

kindly advised me to take his 'Favorite Pre
