The National committee of the populist party at Omaha last week sustained chairman Butler by a vote of 61 to 49. This indicates that the dog is stil! wagging his tail.

You see now it wus not the repub. lican party nor the gold standard that sent wheat sky high. The credit is due a young man named Leiter, backed by bis father’s mil- lions. Jerry Simpson has been re-ncmin- ated by the populist party in his district and endorsed by the demo erates. By this arrangement Jerry stands a good show of going back to Washington again. The middle of the road populists of Jackson county are figuring ona fusion with the republicans. In order to avoid complications they voted to table a resolution instruct ing their state delegates not to vote for men who favor the cingle gold standard. The diapatches say the Spanish fleet under Admiral Camera on its way to Philippine Islands, has ar- rived at Port Said. The fleet con sists of one battleship, one ironclad, two eruisers, three torpedo boats and five transports carrying 4,000 troops. The distance from Port Said to Manila is 7,000 miles. The Western Spirit, published at Paola, Kansae, avd one of the very best and mest prominent democratic papers in the state, refuses to ac- cept the decision of the democratic party of Kansas that no ticket be nominated and that the party lay down for this year and vote the pop-! ulist ticket nominated. | The Demecrat says the reason we | : ie ae : ! every as: dress ally affirming SOME INSIDE HISTORY- |cause the editor of the postmaster under Mr. that he is not a silver course has been such that man. it has been necessary our Ties was 80 duriog the campaign, that The Democrat intimates that be- ‘Times was) Cleveland | Our vt | Papers for a real estate firm and had eg give the work his undivided at inu- The strong for Mr. Bryan, clippings { Mr. Wade’s explanation of why! | he failed to be present at the town-| | ship convention to vote for the De | | Armond delegation ia rather amus ing.

The democratic congressional con- vention for the Eighth district, held Dick Bland by acclamation. The convention adopted a_ resolution favoring the re-election of F.

The seat of “Fighting Jce” congress has been declared vacant As soon ss war was declared with Spain Gen. Wheeler tendered his services to the government, which were promptly accepted. He is now at the front with Shafter’s men in Cuba The republicans of Saline county have endorsed Leslie Orear for con- gress in the Seventh district. This is quite a elam on the intelligence of the simon pure republicans of the district as Orear is a gold bug dem- ocrat. te There is not a ripple of opposition to the reelection of Senator Cock- rell.

Thousands of women suffer in this way and do not recognize the cause, or if they do understand their condition, neglect it rather than submit to the obnoxious exam- inations ard local treatment insisted upon by the average physician. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is a wonderful medi- cine for women who suffer in this way. It does away with the necessity for these try- ing ordeals, and may be used in the privacy of the home. It acts directly on the deli- cate organs concerned, and makes them strong, vigorous and healthy. It banishes the discomforts of the expectant period and makes baby’s advent easy and almost pain- less. It transforms weak, nervous, petulant invalids into happy wives and ‘mothers. Thousands of women have testified, over their own signatures, to this fact. The “‘Favorite Prescription’ may be procured from any good medicine dealer. Any wom- an who will write to Dr. R. V.
