NOT EASILY INTIMIDATED Nevada Mail The story is being peddled that a former representative in the siate leg- islature from Karsas City, named Cardwell, threatens to bring suit against newspapers which reproduced from the St. Louis Democratic Republic a letter from Setretary of | State Sam B. Cook. The St. Louis Globe-Demoerat is leading in this fight on the regular Democratic or- ganization. The threatened papers asnamedare, the Jefferson City Trib- une, Joplin Globe, Nevada Mail, Burien Times, Mexico Intelligencer, Chillicothe Constitution, Glasgow Missourian, Gallatin Democrat, Ma- con Times:Democrat, La Monte Ree- ord, Platte City Landmark and Clin- tou Democrat—all fearless Demo- cratic papers There are no grounds for suit against any of these papers, But the threat is made with design, for the purpose of intimidation, The Chillicothe Constitution voices the sentiment not only of the over- whelming majority of the unfettered country press, but of the democracy of the state who have the best inter- ests of the party ‘at heart when it says: “ihe Constitution published upouits own responsibility Secretary of State Sam Cook's letter in which he showed Cardwell and Lyous up in their true light. The columns of the Constitution are always open to Mr. Cook. Democratic party on the State and National Committees, he has never yet bobbed ap on the wrong side of any question and the unsubsidized Demoeratic press of the state has faithin Sum B. Cook's correct stand in this instance, The editors of the above mentioned papers have fought side by side with the present secre- tary of state in many a hot cam- paign and they are not the sort of quitters who desert a friend in the thick of the fight.” There is no malice on the part of the press mentioned and unless itcan be indicted for advocating and sup- porting¢clean men and clean methods in Demorratic polities and condemn- ing the bad it is entirely free from all court censure. Another point may be mentioned—that is this: The pa- pers quoted do not belong to that class which is easily intimidated from doing its full duty to the party and to the people. Their editors—and the people of Missouri is well—know During his long service tothe 5 his whole life work has been directed people. He is not the man to be swerved one hair's breadth from this, and the honest, untrammeled demo- cratic press of the state will stay with him. 2 Attorney Clay's Statement. Mexico Inteligencer, 25th, An tntelligencer reporter called at the law office of Pry & Clay this morn- ing to get an expression in regard to the verdict in the Gartrell case, asTe= ported in Saturday’s issue. When asked about the case Mr. Clay made the following statement: “T was somewhat surprised at the verdict, although [have nocomplaint whatever to make regarding the trial. We had an excellent jury, rep- resentative citizens of Bates county. However, the sentiment in thatcoun ty was practically unanimous that Dr. Gartrell should be hung. This was demonstrated at the trial by the app!ause which the statement of the siate’s attorney that Dr. Gartrell should be convieted of first degree murder net with by the large av ene im attendanee, Of course, this vould not have been otherwise than prejudicial to the defendant. The jury retired about 100'clock Friday night and returned a verdict about 11 o'clock Saturday morning. The case will be appealed to the supreme | the supply of pure | blood. court; where we hope on account of errors in the trial and the instrne- tions to the jury to have the verdict | reversed Dr. Gurtrell’s self compos- ure and absolute control of himself were. remarkable. Judge Graves, before whom the case was tried, was fair and impartial at all times in his rulings; the state’s attorneys were kind, courteous and not unfair throughout the trial. For myself ean say 1do not know when Ihave been fn ‘a community where more hospitality and regard were shown me than in Butler. There was one thing in the trial, however, whieh was a revelation to me and thut was the absolute abandonment of Dr. Gartrell by all his children.

" Zhe blood is the life the-vital force of the body> So it not infrequently happens that the man who looks to be a picture of physical strength falls a sudden victim to disease. A proper care for the blood would prevent many a serious sickness, The cleansing of the blood is a fectly accomplish- ed by the use of Dr. Pierce's Gold- en Medical Discov- ery. It drives out the impurities and poisonous sub- stances which cor- rupt the blood and breed disease. It increases the ac- tivity of the blood- making glands, 7 and so increases |} It builds up the entire body with good sound flesh. There is no al- cohol in “Golden Medical Discov- ery” and it is en- tirely free from opium, cocaine and all other narcotics. The dealer who offers a substitute for the " Discovery ” does so to gain the lit tle more profit paid by inferior medi- cines. There is nothing “just as good” for the blood as "Golden Medical Dis- covery” therefore ho substitute “I took five bottles of ‘Gold®n Medical Discov- ery’ for my blood,” writes Mr. William D.
