Lawlessness Increasing.
The disregard for law which
ems to be spreading over the
land is getting to be alarming. It
is confined to no section. From all
parts of the couutry reports of the
commission of crimes of various
kinds come, and unless something
is done io stop it the present state
of affairs will become mr worse.
Every crime that goes unpunished
encourages tile commission of oth*
ers.
The remedy is iu the hands of
the people. They mud tioi only
insist upon the officials faithfully
discharging their duty, but they
mud give them such aid as they
need.
People are no better than what
they allow.

Lunching With Watson.
That politics makes strange bad-
fellows was never better exempli
fied here in Thomson last week
when Gov.-elect Brown was a lunch

It seems clear then that Little
Joe is making fair weather with

the ieast bit surprised, nor shall
we be, if the same issues that were
involved in the last campaign were
those of the next—with the 6ame

j. Root fulfills almost

neys, liver, Madder
anil every part of the
urinary passage. It
corrects inability to
hold water and scalding pain in passing it,
or bad effects following use of liquor, wine
or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to go often
through the day, and to get up many
times during the night.
Swamp-Root is not recommended for
everything but if you have kidney, liver
or bladder trouble, it will be found just
the remedy you need. It has been thor
oughly tested in private practice, and has
proved so successful that a special ar
rangement has been made by which all
readers of this paper, who have not al
ready tried it, may have a sample bottle
sent free by mail, also a book telling
more about Swamp-Root, and bow to
