Every one who had any knowledge of the affair knows to a moral certainty that it was fairly con ducted and that It was In overy re spect just what It claimed to be.

It was just what It claimed to be, and In soveral respects the publishers did Just a lit tle more than they agreoj to. For all these reasons It has again decided to pu3h a guessing contest This is being done to awaken Interest in the new city census, and as a matter of enterprise on the part of the pub lishers. In this contest as in the other the participants have to pay nothing for tho guess, but are entitled to one guess for overy half dollar spent for the Dally or Weekly Capital Journal, either by mall or by carrier. Tho one who guesses nearest the number of residents In Salem as revealed by the now official census will receive a new Mitchell bicycle, with coaster brake, either ladles' or gents' wheel of this year's model. This Is a practical gift, and will bo a source of continuous usefulness and pleasure to the winner. Those guess ing should remembor that tho old 1900 United States census gave Salem a population of 4258 in tho four ol"d city wards, while the Polk directory peo ple In making up their lists two years later found 14,738. This latter enu meration Included most of the torri tory which has since been taken Into tho city. The Graham-Sheldon Concert. The violin concert given by William Wallace Graham, assisted by Mrs. Albert C. Sheldon, at the opera house, last evonlng, was the musical treat of the season, and was thoroughly ap preciated by those who were fortu nate enough to attend. Mr. Graham displayed wonderful talent, and his numbers, though of tho most difficult arrangement, wero executed In a manner worthy of a mas ter. Every rendition brought forth a storm of applause, and each timo tho bow wizard was forced to reappear and make due acknowledgement. Soft, crashing, wlerd, enchanting, yet ever melodious, the tones filled tho large auditorium with their sweetness and purity. Mrs. Sheldon has a strong soprano voice capable of reaching a very high register, and preserving Its volume. She was heard In seven numbers, all captivating and pleasing Her rendition of "You and I" and "Avo Mario" wero especially beauti ful. Mrs. Wan en E. Thomas, tho ac companlest, -executed the difficult compositions with ease and grace. Tho music-loving people of -Salem will be plea3ed to be favored with a return concert of theso talented mu sicians, and until that time will look back to last evening as a new stand ard for musical entertainments.

THURSDAY, MAY 12, INDIANA DEMOCRATS DUBIOUS About Whom to Give Their Support for the Presi dency Indianapolis, Ind., May 12. The eyes of Democats throughout the land are turned toward Indianapolis today and ears are kept close to the ground to learn what action Indiana, the "pivotal state," will tako in re gard to the Democratic standard bear er to bo named at St. Louis in July. Tho Republicans of this state hold but one convention this year, but tho Democrats thought It wiser to hold two. The convention In session In Torallnson hall today will contlne its work to the selectldn of delegates to the national convention. A second convention will be held for the nomi nation of state officers In July. A fow weeks ago It looked as if the Parker men would have a walk over In Indiana, but later develop ments have materially changed tho aspect of things. Thomas TaggaTt, national committeeman and leador of the movement In Indiana for Judge Parker as nominee of the Democratic party for president, was firm in tho belief a month ago that Indiana would send a delegation to St. Louis In structed to vote for Parker. Stato Chairman O'Brien, John W. Kern and other leaders of the conservative ele ment shared this belief. Now It looks as though thoy will bo satisfied if they succeed in defeating Hearts In struction There was an understanding among the Parker men that either Instruct ions or the unit rule would bo adopted In order to Insuro a solid voto fpr Parker, but the utterances of Bryan against the New York platform and tho flght thta Hearst has put up throughout tho state have caused many to think that the national con vention should look outside of both Hearst and Parker for a nomlnco. The opinion Is expressed that per haps Indiana had better be In a posi tion to lead off for another candidate than to have her hands tied with in structions for any candidate. Tho Hetfrts lieutenants are working with might and main for an Instruct ed delegation. It is bolleved, how over, that thoy will bo perfectly satis fied If they can succeed In preventing tho adoption of tho unit rule, ni such action on tho part of tho convention would be regarded as a Hearst victory.

' I W A "There ate thousands ofsick women drafrfrtnr oat a weary, miserable existence, who would be well and happy did thev but have my experi ence with I)r Tierce's favorite Prescription, writes Mrs. Annie Lennian, of 106 Jackson St., Atlanta, ta. "four years afro 1 was nearly dead with inflammation and ulceration I en dured daily untold agony, and life was a burden to me I had used medicines internally and externally until I had made up my mind that there was no relief in sight fbr me. A friend of mine endorsed vour ' favorite Prescription,' and I determined then to give it a trial. It took patience and perseverance Tor I was in a bad con dition, and had to use your medicine Tor nearly four months before I was cured, but what a change it brought; from despair to happiness, from misery to the delightful, exhilarating feel ing that only health brings. I would not change back fbr a thousand dollars Your ' Prescrip tion' is a grand medicine.
