THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL Few Peopls Enow How Useful It Is in Pre- serving Health and Beauty. Nearly everybody knows that char- coal is the safest and most’ efficient disinfectant and purifier in nature, but few realize its value when taken into the human system for the same cleans- ing purpose. Charcoal is a remedy that the more you take of it the better; it is not a drug at all, but simply absorbs the gases and Impurities always present in the stomach and intestines and car- ries them out of the system. Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating enions and other odorous vegetables. Charcoal effectaally clears and fm- proves the complexion, it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural &nd eminently safe cathartic, It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; it disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh. All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probably the best charcoal and the most for the money is in Stuart’s Chareoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered ‘Willow charcoal, and other harmless antiseptics in tablet form or rather in the form of large, t tasting loz- .'.i the charcoal being mixed with The daily use of these lozenges will eoon tell in 2 much improved condition of the general health, better complex- fon, sweeter breath and purer blood, the beauty of it is that no possible mmlt from their continued il be memorabie in our an- | | s | of en to wager at evens that Jud, J.-nuvm. o 000,000 and an enormcus sum to keep them; some put it as high as $50,000,000 annually.

What does the record say? He nd his predecessor have done more In the nterest of universal peace than any other Presidents since our Government was formed. They have done more for the cause of arbitration than all the rest put together. They have composed more difficulties by friendly negotiation; they have settled more questions that threatened our peace; they have made more treaties and more mutually advaniageous ones than any other Presidents in our history. % It sometimes seems a waste of time to meet these ‘‘wild and whiriing words” of calumn: The men that utter them do not themselvs believe them. FEach man of them knows very well that be could wish no happier lot to his boy in the cradle than that he might grow up to be such a man as Theodore Roosevelt. If some weak-minded anarchist should take it into his addled brain to adopt- the amiable and chivalrous advice given the other day in a public speech by an Alabama Congressman and send President Roosevelt to join the equal- Iy loved and mallgned Lincoln and Garfield and McKinley, you know now what a pall of sessow would spread over this country from to end: and not over this country alone, the shadow of that grief would sweep like sudden night around the world. THE CURSE OF PARTY It is the curse of party spirit, especially in times when the opposition has no great cause t advocate, when there is no great issye at stake, that impels even honest men to say what they do not believe and to incite disor- dered minds to deeds which fill with anguish the beart of a nation. I read @ while ago in the platform of the Democrats of; Massachusetts this reckless charge againsi the President: “‘He has declared war against 8 sister repub- lic without an act of Congress, in deflance of the well-known usages of international law and in the face of an adverse opinion from his chief law adviser, It is commonly believed.” Who, 1 may ask, belleves {t? Who is the man gifted with the malignant credulity which makes such belie! possible? This is a model campaign fiction, for every word in it is false. The President has not declared war on any nation. A declaration of war is a solemn of- ficial act, impossible except by a vote of Con- gress. No such act ever took place. It may be presumed the platform refers to the notice given to the hostile forces on the fsthmu- that they were not to fight on the line of the rail- rosd. which it was our duty to keep open. But this was no war, and no declaration of war; there was no deflance of our constitu- tion, nor of international law. The action of the President was in the interest of peace and it was effective. Not a hostile shot has since been fired on the isthmus. And here is the plain proof of it. In the very same breath with which ey accuse us of being on the isthmus as the result of vio- lence, robbery and treachery, they propose not only to stay there, but to go right on and reap the fruit of our infamy by building the canal. There is no talk of restitution, no sug- gestion of @ national penance for transgres- sion. Nothing of the kind. They will enter fo a SPIRIT. | the house of sin which we have built—they will eat of the fat and drink of the sweet, rolling up sanctimonious eyes and thanking heaven they are not as those wicked Repub- licans. LOYAL TO CONSTITUTION. The Republicans can avow their adherence to the Constitu‘ion without hypocrisy and without the labored emphasis of remorse. The first_great work of' the party was performed in 1861, when with toil and struggle such as we prey nay never be necessary again they saved the constitution from the assaults of the predecessors of the men who now clalm exclusive charge of it, and who even to-day not only acquiesce in its violation in certain States of the Union, but shamelessly profit by it is extraordinary campaign is drawing to On the Sth of November the bickering and confusion of tongues will cease. The peo- ple who have been filling the air with slander of the man who has so well and so mobly served the country will ize with grati- tude his excellent work, and will be glad they are still to enjoy the benefits of it. con- stitution, our great charter of public and x&; vate rights, will be found intact. The doc- trine of protection, gives (orth by Washing. ton and Hamiiton, amplified and perfected by the exnerience of a century of trial, will still be available to fill our treasury and to foster our manufactures. The gold standard of cur- rency and our banking laws in the hands of those who established them and who do not have to protest the sincerity of their adher- ence to them will keep our finances firm as the hifis. The principle of nationaity, derived fron: our Revolutiunary fathers and conse- crated by the blood and toil of the civil war, will guard this indissoluble Union of inde- structible States against all attagk from within without. Atlantic and el or fic oceans will still be equally the fieid of sur trade and commerce. Our possessions beyond the seas will be governed with firmness and Iiberality, Wwith an ever-increasing measure of freedom, “as they develop the facuity of self-control.

Fardee was the principal speaker at a big ‘Republican meeting held here this evening- The other speaker was At- Mtorney General U. S. Webb. Governor fPardee was at his best and delivered & stirring speech. The meeting was held in the opem air in front of the City Hall, the speakers talking from the steps. Dr. Percy L. Hamilton of Chico presided. Governor Pardee was the first speak- er. He referred to the years under Grover Cleveland, which he said nearly bankrupted all. The disasters of those years fell alike on the just and the un- just. It would not have been so bad, be added, had the hard times fallen only upon those who voted for Cleve- land. Pardee spoke of Roosevelt as an un- safe man for trusts and boodiers, but a safe man for the people; not an aris- tocrat but a man of the people. He dwelt at some length upon the life of Roosevelt and declared the Pres¥ent an enemy of the trusts. The Governor asked all to vote for McKinlay for Congress in the Second District and for the Republican nom- inee for the Assembly in this county. He was several times interrupted by applause and heartily cheered at the close of his address. Webb urged the election of McKin- lay for Congressman of the Second Dis- trict, dwelt upon his ability and fitness and argued that as he would be in entire harmony with the administra- tion and.the majority party in Con- gress he would be able to render the greatest measure of service to the dis- trict and the State. Turning to national issues Webb dis- cussed at length the Philippine ques- tion and criticized the demand in the Democratic platform that the islands be surrendered. Continuing he said: David B. Hill's control and domination of the St. Louls convention absolute. The Czar of all the Russias must have envied him. Autocratic, dicfatorial cunning, his will pre- valled and Parker wis nominated. I.do mot claim for & moment Hill acted for himself alone; on the contrary, he was but the crea- ture in the hands of the whose' schemes had been through Republican enf laws. Eight and four years ago the central declara- tion of Demacratic doctrine was a demand for the “frce and unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, and the majority of the delegates assembled at St. Louis still believed in that dootrine, as is evidenced by the fact that the gold plank submitted to the platform committee was defeated. As the platform was silent on the money question, the powers resented by Hill demanded some expression favor of the gold standard and hence the tele- m. B uickly after came the commotion of which we read, Hill affected the greatest surprise. Delegates rushed nither and thither; there was rapid consultation and awful denynciation; there was charge and promise; there ‘'was hope and despair. The scene that the convention &t this time presented calls to mind the im- Capitol when the of the enemy’s guns disturbed the baliroom festivities. Up to this moment it was thought all things had been harmonized: it was thought that Bryan had been placated;#it was thought that the free siiver men had subdued, the gold, standard men quleted, the income tax peeple put to sleep, but upon the receipt of the tele- gram revolt threatened.

They must look elsewhere. and in looking elsewhere we find that there is another candidate for this high office asking the suffrages of the American voter. Let us now ask what influences united in compelling the nomination of Theodore Roosevelt. The speaker closed with a reference to the Republican candidate—his long and efficient service in behalf of the nation, declared that he had been tried and proven true and showed by a re- view of his public achievements that the claim that he is unsafe is un- founded. S MCcKINLAY’S STRENUOUS TRIP. Ends Three Days of Stif Campaign- ing in Lakeport. LAKEPORT, Oct. 26.—Duncan E. McKinlay concluded three days of campaigning in this section with a splendid rally at the Benvenue Pavil- ion here to-nights Leaving Ukiah Monday night he went to Willits on a special train and at once started to drive to Covelo, fifty miles distant, over mountain roads. He spoke to a large audience there, making a splen- did impression. His explanation of the Round Valley Indian land bill was heartily approved by the people. Immediately after the meeting at Covelo McKinlay went back to Wil- lits, reaching there in time to catch the train for Hopland. From there he came here. He was accompanied by Mrs. McKinlay, who was given a reception by a committee of ladies. At the meeting to-nlght McKinlay was in splendid voice and made a most telling address. He took up the system of trusts, fully explaining the attitude of the Republican party and its purpose to suppress all uniawful combinations. Republican sentiment here is very strong and the party lead- ers expect to ecarry this county for Roosevelt. e DEMOCRATS FOR NEEDHAM. WATSONVILLE, Oct. 26.—Despite counter attractions Congressman Needham drew a greater crowd than could ‘get into Kennedy's Hall to- night, many being turned away. This was the first meeting of the Republi- can campaign here. The size of the meeting and the enthusiasm mani- fested make it certain that Needham will recelve a tremendous vote from this section. Congressman Needham ‘was accompanied by Seward A. Sim- ons, a well known New York orator, who delighted the audience with his critictsm of the Demicratic platform and the speeches of Judge Parker. Besides Needham Senator 8. H. Rambo and Assembly Candidate Geory C. Cleveland made strong speeches and were cheered at the con- clusion of the meeting. After the ral- ly Needham was kept at the hall half an hour shaking hands. Many Dem- ocrats pledged him their support. e Democratic Rally in Napa.

At the American Scandinavian Re- publican Club last night at the Knights | of the Red Branch Hall, 1133 Mis- sion street, Francis McNamara, the Republican nominee for the Assembly, got a cordial reception. The principal object of the meeting was to give the young candidate for the Legislature an opportunity to appear before his nu- merous friends, many of whom have known him since his childhood. In this the managers of the American Scandinavian Club succeeded beyond their expectations, as the presence of McNamara was a signal for great demonstrations of welcome. ot - deatsha KAHN NAILS A FALSEHOOD. Gives Cause and Time of His Depar- ture for Manila. The efficacy and the power of truth was well demonstrated last evening at Occidental Hall, Third street, near Fol- som, when Julius Kahn, Republican nominee for Congress in the Fourth District, nailed a falsehood circulated by his enemies in a futile effort to in- jure his candidacy. And when he had completed his remarks the whole audi- ence, a portion of it hostile at first, was with him and by its cheers attest- ed its confidence in his veracity and its condemnation of his accusers. The crowd that assembled in Occi- dental Hall was an unusually large ohe for a district meeting. It was presided over by William J. Harrington, chair- man of the Republican campaign com- mittee of the Twenty-eighth Assembly District, who called the meeting. Bar- ney Conlon acted as secretary and ar- ranged the list of speakers to the satis- faction of all. Prior to the atrival of Mr, Kahn, James L. Oliver, C. N. Van Fleet, Frank A. Markey, Republican and Union Labor nominee for the Sen- ate in the Seventeenth District, and ‘Willlam J. Mindham, Republican and Union Labor nominee for the Assembly in the Twenty-eighth District, ad- dregsed the audience, all being warmly received. 2 KAHN NAILS A LIE. dacy. Lately I have seen in one of the papers that e o0ld, threadbare lie to the effect that when strike broke out I sailed t back on my fellow is made that I sailed to Manila to escape be- coming involved in this strike. And even the purpose of the lie IS not apparent, because I frankly admit that had I been here I don't know, in view of the position I occupied—I was not a local official—that I could have done anything, but you may be assured that I would have tried. (Applause.) 3 Now, one mare point. 1 challenge any man in the United ,Smlel to put his finger on one act of mine in’Congress that was detrimental to the interests of the laboring men, and I can prove to you :hat while in Congress I did Sany things fn the interest of laboring men from which they have had and will in the fu- ture reap great benefit. As a member of the Judiciary Committee of Congress I helped frame and heiped pass through the House of Congress the anti-injunc- tlon bill; n T was informed by the local jon that the Marine Band was going to play at the Pittsburg Exposition L consented to champion the fight to keep this band from interfering with the unfon musi- cians of Pittsburg, although it was outside of my district. I succeeded and the Marine Band did not go to Pittsburg. On behalf of the coopers 1 interceded and assisted in defeating a bill that would have taken many dollars from them. On behalf of the leather workers | of San Francisco 1 obtained a contract from the Government under the terms of which the shoemakers of this city made 40,000 pairs of shoes for the army. I obtained an appropria- tion of $1.500,000 from the Government for the erection of a new custom-house where the old postoffice now stands. This will give employ- ment o hundreds of San Francisco workmen and they will get the most of this vast sum. I obtained an appropriation of $100,000 for the construetion of ‘a ligh*house on Mile Rock, and this will benefit many artisans of this city, and it was through my exer.ions that the Chi- Lese crew of the United States transport Han- cock was discharged and white men employed in its place. I ask you, in all falrness, if this Is not something I have done for the laboring men of San Francisco. (Prolonged applause.) SPEAKS FOR LOCAL TICKET. In conclusion Mr. Kahn called upon his auditors to support the Republican legislative ticket, “for,” he said, “a United States Senator must be elected by the next Legislature and we want to elect a Republican, that the Republican policies for which we all stand shall prevail and that Theodore Roosevelt shall not be handicapped in his effort to continue these policies in effect.” Mr. Kahn’'s address was heartily cheered by the audience, which gave him the closest attention throughout. He was followed by John Cullen, Re- publican nominee for the Assembly in the Twenty-ninth District, and James L. Gallagher, Frank H. Kerrigan and D. W. Burchard, Republican nominees for the Superior bench. Then, with three cheers for the entire Republican ticket, the meeting dishanded. Including that at Occidental Hall, Mr. Kahn delivered five speeches yes- terday. At the noon hour he addressed the employes of the Fulton Iron Works, and in the evening he discussed the is- sues of the campaign with the members of the Twenty-ninth Assembly District Republican Club at 858 Howard street, with the members of the Swedish- American, Republican Club at 1133 Mis- sion street and talked at an open-air meeting. at Harrison and - Chesley streets. s TS GIVES HAYES HEARTY GREETING Thirty-Seventh Turns Out to Welcome Republican Nominee. g The Republicans of the Thirty- seventh Assembly District met in force last night in Devisadero Hall, 317 De- visadero street, and extended a hearty welcome to E. A. Hayes, Republican nominee for Congress from the Fifth Congressional District. State Senator Edward Wolfe of the Twenty-first Sen- atorial District was also heartily cheered. Fred Jones, nominee for As- semblyman from the Thirty-seventh, came in for a hearty welcome. After a quartet selection the pre- siding officer, W. J. Ruddick, introduced the first speaker, Colonel C. W. Kyle, who spoke of the work of the United States in the Philippines and the dis- position of the islands, He told of the administration’s Panama canal his- tory and the brilliant achievements of President Roosevelt. Fred Jones, candidate for Assembly- man from the Thirty-seventh District, xecounted the work of the party in the past. He quoted figures and trade statistics and urged strongly the care- ful guarding and increasing of the Ori- ental trade of this city. Senator CHarles Shortridge then in- troduced the State Senatorial nominee, Edward Wolfe, who made an earnest and telling speech. He told of the work done by former Assemblyman Arthur G. Fisk *at Sacramento and predicted that the present nominee, Fred Jomes, would be equally as capable. He then paid tribute to the great Presidents of the Republican party. He reminded his hearers that if elected he would be the senior Senator at Sacramento, a posi- tion that could not be obtained by the election of his youthful opponent. Here Senator Wolfe's remarks were interrupted by the arrival of E. A. Hayes. The cheering outside had be- come deafening and as the candidate entered the hall the band struck up “Hall to the Chief,” while those pres- ent joined in the welcome. At the conclusion of Wolfe's speech the chairman introduced E. A. Hayes. Mr. Hayes was greeted with three times three and won his auditors from the start. He dwelt at great length upon the question of protection, ex- plaining it carefully and patiently and incidentally making several points that were quickly appreciated. He explained the conditions of the country under Democratic and Republican rule and declared that he knew the conditions thoroughly for the reason that he had experienced them. He then discussed shipping and trade with the Orient, on which, he said, depended a great deal of the city’s wealth. He spoke earnestly against the admission of Chi nese and Japanese and closed with an appeal to the voters to support the local Republican ticket in the coming election. The meeting closed with a thoroughly entertaining speech by Sen- ator Shortridge. Yesterday afternoon Mr. Hayes vis- ited the railroad and street car shops and met the conductors, gripmen, ma- chinists and other employes. Every- where he was received with favorable demonstrations. : sty Independent Republicans Meet. About 100 members of the United Independent Republican Club of the Thirty-ninth Assembly District met last night at Richmond Hall to fur- ther the candidacy of Edwin T.
