Kopealing the direct primary won't do it. Disbanding the so

How long the situation will last, no one knows, but as long as it
does last, there is little profit in wailing. Father Time is the best and
probably the only physician. Kventimlly there will probably be a
complete political transformation, with a Conservative party on one
side, which Jlr. AVeeks can whole heartedly support, and a Liberal
party on the other, which can be supported by men like AVilliam
Jennings Bryan and Samuel (lompers.
Political parties don't make issui; issues make political parties.
When elements now in suspension settle, when issues crystallize,
then the present high .political humidity will disappear, and the
country will really return to Normalcy again.
Outbursts such as the one in which the Secretary o.f AVar has in
dulged, relieves the feelings, but that is the only relief discernible.
The solution lies elsewhere.,

often I have seen them, where clinging herbage twines; and all

though you l'aris-jjreen them, they won't take in their sins.
Your sweat runs in a river, your face is turning preen, your

Prescription DOES NOT ruin the

heart, at all the meat and good food
you wish while taking Trunk's Pre

Mercury, Salicylate of Soda, Oil of
Wintergreen or narcotics of any
kind, 'but it absolutely and positively
overcomes any kind of Rheumatism
