Not one person in a thousand knows that the cause of billousness {s the clogging of the liver by the polsons of indigestion. Nor that the only proper cure for it is a tonic to aid the stomach. But modern medicine declares the truth of it. And the Shakers have proved it by the wonderful success of their Shaker Digestive Cordial. One of the most important uses of the liver is to arrest and destroy all potsons which try to find their way into the biood. When it’s clogged, it can't do this. Undigested food ferments and putrefies in the stomach, and the poisons of putrefaction clog and paralyze the liver, after which they find their way Into the blood. Here 4s the true explanation of all the distressing disorders and complications caused by indigestion. Shaker Digestive Cordial ts the only tonic cordial which alds the stomach in a natural way to digest its food. By this means, it cures indigestion, re- stores the liver and frees the body from poison and disease. Headache, dizziness, neuralgia, mental depres- sion, weakness, bad taste, fever, flatulence, con- stipation, loss of appetite, anaemia, rheumatism and many other disorders are relieved and cured by Shaker Digestive Cordial.

Vencedor and Canada Drift Awhile and the Race is Called Of. No race” was declared yesterday in the contest on Lake Erie between the yachts Vencedor of Chicago and Canada of To- ronto for the international trophy. There was such a faint breeze that the yachts had a driftirg match for some time, and it was found that the first race of the series could not be finished within the time imit of 5% hours. At 1:14 Canada had completed her turn of the first stakeboat. Vencedor turnea at 1:41. The steamers all whistled con- gretulations, but there was no interest, and the boating parties were visiting one ancther, Canada was a mile and a quar- ter ahead. The race was shortly there- after celled off, the boats having sailed a littel more than half of the second leg. The orly thing demonstrated by the con- testing boats was that the Canada can outsail the Vencedor in a light wind, ard the Canada satflors can outsail the crew on the Chicago craft.

I have been deeply moved by the warm and generous worda spoken by Mr. Blake, and nothing gives me greater pleasure nor more satisfaction than to feel that I have behind me, supporting the great principles for which I stand, the workingmen of my ‘old congressional dis- trict. (Applause.) “The message of good-will so eloquently expressed by your fellow workmen has profoundly touched me. I cannot forget that you trusted me in my young man- hood, for which I am deeply grateful, and that you have ever since followed me with unfaltering confidence, for which I am also duly appreciative. I remember the first tie that I ever looked into the faces of an East Liverpool audience twenty years ago, and then, as now, I was speaking for sound money and a protective tariff. (Great cheering.) “Your spokesman has alluded most gra- clously to what he terms the services I have given to your great industry. If 1 have done anything to bring work to you or my fellow man anywhere, and made the conditions of the American workingman easier, that is my highest reward, and Sreater reward no man could have. ‘There is no industry, my fellow citi- zens, in the United States which demands or deserves protection through our tariff laws more than yours. It is a business re- quiring technical and artistic knowledge and the most careful attention to the many and delicate processes through which the raw material must pass to the completed Product. Down to 1862 the pottery industry of the United States had achieved lttle or no success, and had made but slight advancement In a practical and commer- cial way. At the close of the low tariff period of 1860 there was but one white- ware pottery in the United States, with two small kilns. Decgrating kilns were not Known. In 1873, ‘encouraged by the tariff and the gold premium, which was an added protection, we had increased to twenty potterjes, with sixty-eight kilns, but. still no decorating kilns (applause). The capi- tal Invested was $1,020,000, and the value of the products was $1,180,000. In 1882 there were fifty-five potteries, 244 kilns, twenty- six decorating kilns, with a capital tn- vi 3,000, and an annual product 40. The wage: paid in the: pot- &S2 were $2,387,000, and the num- ployes ‘engaged therein, 7,000, or nt. You have twenty-eight pot- in the clty‘of East Liverpool today. he difference between the wages of abor in this country ‘and of foreign coun- tries you know better than I can tell you. When the law of 1838! was enacted T stated on the floor of Congress that If the duty of 55 per cent and 60 per cent was given, as recommended by the bill then pending, in less than five years the quality of Ameri- can ware would be improved, the quantity increased, and the price to the consumer sensibly diminished. That proph has b a more than verified. (Cries of ‘You are right.’) ‘In 18% an assorted crate of ware sold for $57, and the same—only a better ware— is now sold for less than $40. In 1864 we bald for the same crate of ware $210. On decorated ware the immense benefit to the consumer ts even more apparent. The sell- ing price of all decorated ware was from 50 to 100 per cent higher in 1882 than in 1890. In 1852, with the low revenue tariff duty of 24 per cent and no domestic manu- facturers ite ware sold at § per cent duty and domestic competition with large potteries, which are the pride of the coun- try, emptoying labor and capital at home, buying our own raw material, the same as- sorted crate is selling for $40. (Applause.) “What tne state of business has been in the past three years you know better than I can tell you. Without any actual knowl- edge about it, I think T can safely say that you have not been so prosperous as you were prior to 1893. (Cries of ‘You are right; we haven't.') And that the past three years have been years of unsteady and irregular employment, reduced wages, less work and less pay. (Cries of ‘Yes.") “My fellow citizens, the people in 1802 were busy at work and gave little attention to politics. They will not be so indifferent again. (Applause and cries of ‘You are right; they won't.’) They have more time this year (aughter) than they had four years ago, and are giving earnest atiention and active work to the national contest which is engaging the country. We are growing more and more to recog:.ize the great necessity of every citizen giving per- scnal and ser‘ous thought to his political duties. Business men, workingmen and the peoplo generally are coming to realize that business and politics are closely related: that bad politics means bad business, and that politics cannot be neglected wi hout endangering our occupations, our earnings and our labor. We have had some distress- ing experience in this direction, which has ness our busimess will not keep us. (Great cheering.) “And that if somebody else does our work we will have no work to do at home. (Applause.) The people are settled in one purpose this year—they will not tolerate the surrender of any more of their busi- ness, and will as quickly as possible re- cover what they have already lost. They know how they lost it, they know when they lost it, and they Know how to get it back, and they mean to do it. (Tremen- dous applause, and cries of ‘Hurrah for McKinley.’ “Another growing sentiment among the people is that, much as they are attached to old party associations, and hard as it is to leave their old relations, they would rather break with ‘their party than to break up their business; that parties are nol as strong as busittess tics, and the good of the country is'imore to be desired than the success of any‘ political party. “Men will no longer follow party when it leads away from business success and pros- perity, when its policies cripple our indus- tries and the earning power of labor. They will not follow a-party whose policies im- peril our financial integrity and honor of the country. (Gréat applause.) “We are learning another thing, my fel- low citizens—indeed, we know it already- that, no matter what kind of money we have, we cannotiget:it unless we have work. (Cries of ‘You are right, major.’ Whether it is poor money or whether it 1s good money, whether it is gold or whether it is vilver, we cd’nnot get one dollar of It unless we have efmpldyment for our hands and heads. (Enthusiastic cheering and waving of hats.) And we know another thing —that when we have work, we have honest dollars, with the most purchasing power— dollars which will not depreciate in our hands over night, but which will be good every day and every year and everywhere. (ienewed cheering, and cries of ‘Hurrah or McKinley.") We cannot help the labor by reducing the value of the money in whick labor is paid. The way to help labor Is to provide it with steady work and good wages, and then have those good wages | always paid in good money, moncy as sound as the government an@ as unsuilied as this flag (pointing to the American flag). (Tremendous cheering and applause.) “I thank you, my felléw-citizens, for this cali, and for the warm messages brought to me by your spokesman, and be assured it will afford me pleasure to meet and greet every one of my old friends, for I can never forget, and I woult not forget, the unwavering kindness and support I have mee had at your hands.” (Great cheer- ENRAGED AT COCKRAN Virginians Resent His “‘Unreconciled Slave Owner” Remark. ——— RAILROADS WORKING FOR GOLD How the Congressional Districts Are Going. REVIEW OF THE FIELD Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. RICHMOND, Va., August 25, 1896. ‘The scund money cause in Virginia has found an able and zealous champion in ex- Governor William E. Cameron, who 1s now creating a political furore on the stump. Governor Cameron has done little campaign speaking for some time, until the present contest in Virginia. He has start- ed out in earnest to stump the state in the interest of sound money, and it cannot be doubted that he is gaining ground stead- ily for the sound money cause. Governor Cameron has been secured by the oppo- nents of Bryan and Sewall to fight the Chi- cago platform only by a flat-footed argu- ment in favor of the gold standard. His speeches will be confined to the currency question throughout his campaign work. There have been circulated reports to the effect that the ex-governor was employed by the bolting democrats to stump the state. This is erroneous. The Sound Money League was ingfrumental in secur- ing the services of Mr. Cameron. That organization is not confined to bolting demccrats for its membership, however, but the only requirement for admission into the organization is that the members shall work for the maintenance of a sound currency. As a matter of fact, there are some republicans in the league, and many who, though formerly supporters of the democratic party, have, since the adoption of the Chicago platform, decided to support McKinley for President. In his debate against Henry V. Strayer, democratic elector for the seventh district, at Gaheysville, last Saturday, when the campaign in Rockingham was opened, Gov. Cameron was clarged with representing the game people who had indorsed Bourke Cockran’s “Professional Farmer and Un- reconciled Slave Owners” views. This pre- cipitated an exciting episode, and the large crowd yelled themselves hoarse, and made emphatic demonstrations of disapproval of Mr. Cockran’s utterances. Cries of “Traitor! Traitor!” were heard on all sides. It was evident that Mr. Strayer was using all the political ammunition in his power that could be gotten from Cockran’'s speech. Governor Cameron saw that there was an effori to appeal to sectional spirit by waving the bloody shirt. He warmly repudiated what is now widely considered an insult offered the southern people by Mr. Cockran. It was thought by the large crowd present that Governor Cameron would declare for McKinley. This he did not do, and the republicans present appear- ed to be surprised. Cameron and Dantel, A strong effort 1s being made to bring together Senator Daniel and ex-Governor Cameron in a series of Joint debates on the currency question. Such meetings would bring together thousands of people. The memorable campaign between Daniel and Cameron for governor of Virginia is still fresh in the minds of the people of this state. It is not at all unlikely that their meet- ings will be arranged. It 1s understood that Governor Cameron, who has for years been regarded as one of the foremost stump speakers in the south, is anxious to meet Senator Daniel on the currency question. Senator Daniel is expected to arrive in Vir- ginia from Southampton this week. As soon as he has rested up a little from his long trip he will commence a vigorous work throughout the state in the interests of free silver and its champions. A well-known republican said to The Star correspondent today that there was no foundation for the reports that Messrs. Gee and Dyer had withdrawn from the con- tests in favor of Messrs. Thorp and Wise, in the fourth and second districts, respec- tively. He thought the republicans in these two districts would in due time get to- gether and reach some conclusion that would be for the interests of the party, which seems to have been drifting toward separate factions in the two districts. State Chairman Lamb of the republican committee, who left Saturday for his home in Norfolk, has returned to republican headquarters here, and is harder at work than ever. He is of the opinion that the free silver movement in the state is on the wane, and that with such men as ex-Gov- ernor Cameron, General Walker. Jacob Yost and J. Hampton Hoge in the field working in the interests of sound money in the state the chances of Bryan and Sewall with the Chicago platform are steadily weakening, and that McKinley and Hobart will surprise the voters of Virginia when the returns are bulletined. The republicans now have candidates for Congress in all the districts except this, the third, as follows: First district, W. B. Tyler of Fredericksburg: second district, Dr. R. A. Wise of Williamsburg and John J. Dyer of Hampton; third district, no nomination: fourth district, E. Gee of Dis- putanta and R. T. Thorp of Boydton; fifth district. John R. Brown of Martinsville: sixth district, J. Hampton Hoge of Roan- oke; seventh district, Rcbert J. Walker of Hawkinaville: eighth district, Patrick H. McCaull of Culpeper; ninth district, Jas. A. Walker of Wytheville; tenth district, Jacob Yost of Staunton. The Third District. The republicans are still considering the question of putting a candidate in the field for this district. It 1s a well-known fact that many prominent republicans are enthusiastically in favor of such action, while some are opposed to it. As soon as it is decided whether Col. Ellett or Capt. Lamb will be the democratic nominee the sound money people will get together, it is thought, and decide upon a man. Then there will be a big fight among the repub- licans whether or not to put up a candi- date. It is understood that some of the republican leaders are strongly in favor of choosing Judge L. L. Lewis as their standard bearer for the district. Judge Edmund Waddill, jr., manager of McKin- ley’s campaign in the state, is thought to be opposed to a republican candidate, if the sound money people agree upon a man. The republican district convention will meet at Hanover Court House September 24, and the matter will be decided then. A vigorous fight on both sides is expected. Republican literature is being circulated througheut the state in great quantities, and this is truly to be a campaign of edu- cation, with republican chances as good, if not better, than ever before. Already the leaders of the party in the state, who are usually conservative in their statements, are disposed to claim the siate for McKin- ley by a small majcrity, while others say they wil win by 15,000 majority. A well- known politician said today to The Star correspondent that the number of bolting democrats would outnumber the republi- cans who would cast their votes for Bryan and Sewall, and he thought the republican chances for a victory were brighter than eyer before. Prominent silverites here are disposed to estimate the majority for Bryan and Sewall at 20,000. Some go 60 far as to say the free sflverites will win by 30,000 majcrity. This 1s belleved by con- servative people to be overrated. Bets are being made now that Bryan and Sewails majority will not be 5,000, while some few are taking even wagers on McKinley. It is scarcely to be doubted that the republican campaign fund in Virginia is larger than for twenty years past. The campaign is being conducted upon strictly business principles, and they are spending a gcod ceal of money. Reports are to the effect that a considerable portion of their cam- paign funds is being furnished by local railroads and manufacturing enterprises. Certain it is that the state committee are spending a good deal of money in spread- ing republican literature and otherwise working up their interests in the state, and they have shown a more aggressive spirlt Guring the past month than for years past. The Silver Ninth. One of the most earnest, aggressive fights in the state has already commenced in the ninth district. The organized democracy of that district has based its hopes upon the Chicago platform, and will make the fight with free silver as the war cry. While the free silver sentiment in the district is strong, it 1s believed there will be a re- action to some extent before the election. Some of the most influential men in the district have refused to indorse free silver. Some of them are Col. A. Fulkerson, ex- Congressman Samuel V. Fulkerson, a Prominent lawyer: Dr. Jere Bunting and his sons, including C. L. Bunting, general passenger agent of the South Atlantic and Ohio railroad; G. McDuffey Hampton, son of ex-Senator Wade Hampton of South Carolina; J. L. C. Smith, ex-treasurer of Bristol; ex-Congressman J. B. Richmond, and a long list of well-known citizens who have been accustomed to cast their batlots for the democratic nominees. The repub- licanis of the district interpreted the St. Louis platform to mean bimctallism, the parity of all kinds of money being main- tained by the gold standard. This is thought to have agreed more nearly with the views of Congressman Walker on the money question. Very few of the republi- cans in that district are being converted to the free silver theory. Secretary Joseph Butler of the state dem- ocratic committee has returned to the city from a trip to Washington and other cities in the interests of the campaign. He 1s working hard for the success of the party, and is doing a great deal toward spreading free silver literature throughout the state. Already Secretary Butler has announc dates and speakers for more than twenty Places in the state, and this number will be steadily increased from time to time until next November. The announcement that Colonel R. E. Boykin of Smithfield, Va., had decided positively rot te be a candidate for Con- Sress from the second district was quite @ surprise to Col. Boykin's frieads here. It was thought he would certainly be in the race, and he was regarded as a strong man in the field. It has not been announc- ed upon what grounds Col. Boykin with- drew, though it is not thought that any lack of party spirit influenced him to make this decision, ‘as he has long be2n one of the most earnest workers for the demo- cratic cause in the state. Much comment has been indulged in here over the announcement that Mr. Bazil Gordon will support McKinley in the cam- aign. Mr. Gordon was for years, before ie was succeeded by J. Taylor Ellyson, chairman of the state democratic commit- tee, and he was one of the most efficient and faithful officers who ever occupied that position. He frequently gave freely of his means for campaign work, and has been known to give us much as $10,000 for the democratic cause in Virginia. Mr. Gor- don’s convictions that he could not indorse the Chicago platform has deprived the democratic party in Virginia of one of ite strongest men. Rallroad Influence. There has been much talk here over the Published statement that the Catile Deal- ers’ Association has decided to abandon the scheme of establishing union stock yards in this city on account of the un- certainty of the money question. The as- socilatior had about decided to let the contracts, which would have entailed an expenditure of some $40,000, A well-known cattle dealer is reported as saying that in the event free silver becomss a reality the enterprise will be entirely abandoned. This, together with the statement which was published from an inierview with Prestdent Ingails of the Chesapeake and Ohio and Big Four railway tems, to the effect that if free silver was adopted the Chesapeake and Ohio would abandon its big Improvements in this city, by which expenditures to the amount of nearly $2, 000,009 would be made, and employment given to hundreds of laboring men, has beea used as an argument for the side of the sound money people, and it is believed to have had some effect. The prohibitionists here claim that the “single Issue” policy that has been adopted by the party at large attracts thousands to the ranks who have heretofore been re- pelled by platform planks they did not in- dorse. It is probable that Joshua Lever- ‘ng of Baltimore, the prohibition candidate for President, will speak in this city aur- ing the campaign. The prohibitionists are how considering the question of securing a suitable place for holding a grand mest- ing on this occasion. The leaders of the party claim that they will get a strong support from the disaffected democrat: renks in November. The Central Proht tion Club will hold a meeting here next Friday to map out work for thé campaign. Sound money clubs are growing rapidly more numerous throughout the state. Within the last few days strong organiza- licns have been effected at Staunton, Lynchburg, Petersburg, Norfolk, Newport News, Onancock, Ashland, Greenwood, Roanoke, and many other points. Dele- gates have been elected from all over the siate to the convention which will be held here on Thursday next, and it is expected that there will be present a big representa- tion of the sound money people throughout Virginia on that da: SSL BRYAN ar The Democratic Candidate a Guest of Chairman Hinkley. Mr. and Mre. Bryan were guests last night at the Winnisook Club at Winni- sook Lodge, a delightful summer camp overlocking a little lake in a nook of Slide mountain, 3,000 feet above the sea level, back in the Catskill, several miles from the Hudson. The hosts of the night were Chairman Hinkley of the democratic state committee, Public Printer Benedict of Washington, Mrs. Charles H. Shultz and former State Bank Exaininer Preston. Win- ninsook Club is not a political organiza- tion, but happens to have a few politicians in its membership. Mr. Hinkley said that the invitation extended to Mr. Bryan was purely a personal one, and that no political significance could b2 attuched to the visit. Mr. and Mrs. Bryan were entertained by Mr. Benedict and his daughter, Mrs. George K. French of Washington, in their cottage. Mr. and Mrs. Bryan were brought over Point, N. Y., yesterday afternoon on a tug. Three or four hundred persons were at the landing, where the train was in waiting to receive the passengers from the boat en route from the Catskill. This was the train for which Mr. and Mrs. Bryan had purchased tickets for Big Indian on their way to Winnisook Ledge, where they were to spend the night as guests of Major Hinkley, chairman of the state dem~ -ratic committee. A rush was made by the curi- ous and excited crowd, and it seemed for a time that two policemen were quite unable to control the crowd, but Mr. and Mrs. Bryan were finally pushed into the parlor coach Bavaria. Mr. Bryan addressed the citizens from the rear platform, speaking about five minutes He began by saying he did not care to make a speech, but he always wanted to when he saw people gathered like that. He said: “We have a platform. I believe in a plat- form not only to get in on, but to stand on after I get in. I believe I represent the best interests of the American people on this money question. I want you to study this question, and after you have done that I believe you will be ready to join us in opposing the gold standard. When you find a man who tells you the gold standard is a good thing, you tell him there never was a party that ever declared in its favor. The men who advocate a gold standard in this country are the men without a party. Some peopl will try to make you believe this is a small matter, but you have just as good a right to be heard and receive protection 11 a small matter as in the large business interests; and I want to say io you this is a very important thing. This election is a very important one, and 1 want you to consider it so, that you may all come out right. (A voice, ‘That we'll do.") The train then moved on up toward Kingston union depot, four miles away. At this point the West Shore train had just brovght a crowd of passengers, who were waiting to be trarsferred to this train. In addition several hundred persons had assembled to greet the Bryan party. During the transfer of cars the crowd again rushed forward to shake Bryan's hand, who stood on the rear platform, while Mrs. Bryan was on the front, also receiv- ing greetings. No speech was made, as it was announced there that Mr. Bryan would make a formal address to the people of Kingston in front of the city hall on his return from the Catskill this afternoon. Ex-Assemblyman Cummings, in making | the announcement, called Bryan “the tri- bure of the people. After Mr. Bryan had shaken hands with hundreds the train sped on for the hills. No stop was made below Phoenicia, it being an express train, and there was no special incident until that point was reached. There the demo- cratic candidate alighted and shook hands with several hundred more. At Kingston a colored man stepped up to him and said: “Now, three cheers for McKinley although there were numerous Mc badges about no one responded to the col ored man’s appeal. At Phoenicia cheer. were given for Bryan. The next stop was Allabea. Though brief Mr. Bryan again took the people by the hand until the train began moving away. At Shandaken a large crowd had gather- ed, and a man was blowing a cornet vig- but ley the Hudson from Rhine Cliffe to Kingston | ‘Let this jog your memory —if you've forgotten to tele- phone us to call for your laun- dry bundle.

The medical department of the army has made arrangements for a trial of the Ber- tillon system of identification. The tria} is to be made at the suggestion of one of the officers of the corps who is convinced that the system Is an improvement over the present method of identification of de- serters and other military offenders, as well as of undesirable characters who may attempt to re-enter the army. Other army surgeons do not agree with this conclu- sion and are opy to any change from the present practice. They fear that thé liability of error 1s greater, especially where is much likelihood of carelessness cf operators. The War Depariment, how- ever, has sent to Paris for a set of the Bertillon instruments, and a thorough ex- amination will be made into the system. there John I.
