CURES
• D» CHRONIC ULCERS
Chronic Ulcers are the result of a deeply polluted and foul blood supply.
The blood is filled with impurities and germs which are being constantly
a fed into the place through the circulation, until all the surrounding flesh
becomes diseased and the sore an obstinate and permanent trouble.
Every symptom of an old ulcer suggests pollution ; the discharge, the red,
angry looking flesh, the inflammation and discoloration of surrounding parts,
all show that the ulcer is prevented from healing by the constant drainage
through it of impurities from the blood. This impure condition of the blood
may be hereditary, or it may be the remains of some constitutional disease,
or the effects of a long spell of sickness, leaving disease germs in the system,
or the absorption of the refuse of the body which has not been properly
expelled through the natural channels. But whatever the cause, the blood is
so weakened and polluted that it does not properly nourish and stimulate
the place, and the sore cannot heal. Salves, plasters, lotions, etc., keep the
sore or ulcer clean, relieve pain, and perhaps reduce inflammation, but can
never permanently heal them because they do not reach the blood. S. S. S.
goes down to the very fountain-head of the trouble, drives out all poisons
and germs, builds up the weak, sluggish blood, gives energy and strength
to the system, and by sending a fresh, healthy stream of blood to the diseased
parts, ai.ows the ulcer to heal naturally and permanently. Nothing reaches
inherited taints like S. S. S. It cleanses the circulation of every trace of
hereditary disease or impurity, and those who have nursed and treated an old
sore for years will experience good results as soon as the system becomes
influenced by 3. S. S. Book on Sores and Ulcers and medical advice free to

Diamonds have enhanced in value, as nearly eyery onr knows, more than
double in the 'ast eight or ten years. The opinion of those who are in a posi
tion to know, is that under natural conditions the maximum price is far from
being attained. Added to the natural conditions, such as the mines getting
deeper, etc. It is reported that the Deßeers people have obtained control of
Premier Mines, which were the only ones offering even slight competition. It
is therefore very evident that in the near future you will see prices much in
llated over those at present. Tennison says in his “In Memorai,” “Delay

TRENTON, N. J., Sept. 19.—(Spec
ial.) —The Republican state conven
tion assembled in the Taylor Opera
House here today and was called to
order by Senator Frank O. Briggs,
who is chairman of the state com
mittee. The chief work before the
convention was the nomination of
a candidate for governor and the op
| otion of a platforn.
The gubernatorial nomination
j went to Justice J. Franklin Fort of
j the supreme court, who is the choice
lof the so-called organization of the
| Republicans of New Jersey. ,Jus
| tice Fort is a native of the State and
J has long been prominent in its po
| litical affairs. His public career be
| gan in the early 70'-, when he became
{ journal clerk of the legislature. He
| served for eight years as judge of
j the district court at Newark, and
! as delegate to the Republican national
I convention in 1896 he presented the
! name of Garrett A. Hobart for vice
j president. He is conceded to be one
I of the best campaign orators in the
State.
His Oratorical (lifts.
Some of his speeches won the no
tice and applause of the whole coun
try, notably that in which, as a dele
gate to the Republican National Con
vention at St. Louis in 1896, he made
i the speech placing in nomination for
the Vice Presidency as the running
mate with William McKinley that pop
| ular Jerseyman Garrett Hobart. It
carried the convention by storm and
made a great hit and has been pub
lished as among the finest examples
of American i»olitical oratory. This
gifted man made speeches as chair
man of Republican State conventions
in Taylor Opera House, in this city,
in 1889 and 1895 are also remember
ed as great efforts in that line by
those who heard them. Fort’s speech
es were the conspicious fea
ture of the Griggs campaign for the
Governorship in 1895.
Judge Alton B. Parker, the Demo
cratic candidate for President in
1904, and Judge Fort were class
mates in college and in the law school
| and they were admitted to the bar
on the same day, were made judges
the same year, and have a very
strong personal resmblance to each
other. They have been close and
warm friends ever since their boy
hood.
Cleaned Cp Long Branch.
Judge Fort has been an active and
prominent force in this State for
years. He has been a member of
the State committee, presided over
State conventions, been a member of
Constitutional commissions, dele
gate to national conventions, a lead
ing member of the bar and Judge of
City, County and Supreme Court. In
every position and field of effort he
has made a mark and won the public
respect. His career on the bench
has, in some respects, been unique.
It was this fearless and resolute
Judge who grappled with and put
out of business the wealthy Long
Branch gamblers.
These exclusive clubhouses, to
which only the wealthy resorted and
where the play was high and the ap
pointment and entertainment most
luxurious, were regarded by the peo
ple of Long Branch with tolerant
fear. Thef spent tens of thousands
of dollars there every year, and their
gifts to every local cause were most
munificent. There is no doubt that
the jury of the vicinage gave them
the aegis of its protection. But the
moral sentiment of New Jersey was
outraged in this flagrant violation of
the moralities and the law. The lo
cal authorities and administrators
of the law were unable or unwilling
to cope with the powerful, intrenched
evil. Then Judge Fort was given
that circuit and he took hold of and
tore the thing up root and branch.
With great energy he employed de
tectives and constables to raid the
places at unexpected times, and thus
secured evidence whicli convicted and
brought the gamblers to punishment.
They laughed at these tactics, as
suming that they were of the old
spasmodic sort, and that the storm
of righteousness would blow
over. They lay low and awaited a
favorable opportunity to resume op
erations. Judge Fort then adopted
the unusual expedient of keeping the
grand jury in continuous session, as
a sword over the heads of the gamb
lers, and he notified these gentlemen
that raids would he made, and if
they were again found carrying on
their operations they would go to
prison. It broke up the business and
there lias been no gambling there
since.
His Openness of Character.
It was characteristic of the frank
and manly openness and candor of
Judge Fort that he should have told
the public when asked last spring
whether he would accept the nomi
nation for Governor, to reply that
he would, and that if made the can
didate he would resign from the
bench and take the stump. There
is no beating about the bush by
Judge Fort. He does not calculate
to a nicety, with the caution of timid
politicians, with their ears to the
ground, every step he takes in poli
tics and public affairs. Is it right?
is the only Question he asks.
With Katsenbach and Fort as the
respective Democratic and Republi
can candidates the people of New
Jersey will be assured of a rattling
and picturesque campaign. It will
be an intellectual treat, and absorb
ing political study, from start to
finish.
BISHOP FEEH V\ CONSECRATED.
FALL RIVER, MASS., Sept 19.
(Special)—Prelates and priests from
many dioceses today attended the
consecration of Rev. Daniel F. Fee
han of Fitchburg, Mass., as Roman
Catholic bishop of Fall River. Rev.
Dr. Feehan succeeds the Most Rev.
William Stang, who died some
months ago.
The solemn service was held in St.
Mary’s Pro-Cathedral, a large edifice
which was much too small to accom
modate all who wished to attend.
Prominent among those taking part
in the ceremonies were Archbishop
O’Connell of Boston, Bishop Garrigan
of Sioux City, Bishop Harkins of
Providence, and Bishop Beaven of
Springfield.
The new bishop was born in Athol,
Mass., in 1855. He was graduated
from St. Mary’s College, Montreal
and was ordained to the priesthood
in 1879. Since his ordination the
most of his time has been spent as
pastor of St. Bernard's Church in
Fitchburg. About a year ago Father
Feehan celebrated his silver jubilee,
after twenty-five years’ active duty
in the priesthood.
