Pittsburg, Pa„ June 12.—William
Flinn, of this city, sent in a hurry to
assist in the campaign of Colonel
Roosevelt in Chicago, is not a dilettan- J
te politician. He is credited with be- j
inf one of the kind of men who fight
for the love of fighting. Until the pres
ent campaign no one ever called him I
a leader. Not only has he been known
as a boss, but one of the bossiest!
"bosses" that ever ruled a city and
piled up a little competence of $lO.-!
000,000 or $12,000,000 out of municipal
contracts.
This is the first time he ever sat in
the big game. He has been going to!
national conventions for many years.
but with a Matthew Stanley Quay or a I
Boies Penrose at the head of the Penn-!
sylvania delegation he was one of a i
thonsand other men who stood around
and guessed what was going to take
place. This time he is the boss of thy
delegation, and he has a delegation'
that will eat out of his hand. The
fourth "boss” of his state since the
Civil War, succeeding such masters as
Simon Cameron, Senator Quay and
Senator Penrose, he is bound to be a j
eomanding figure in the convention
city.
Mr. Flinn was born in England 61
years ago, and all but the first fe.v
months of his life have been spent in
Pittsburgh, the early years in the'
fighting Sixth ward. He ended h;s |
school days when 9 years old, and as
soon as he was old enough learned the
trade of bricklaying. He cecame a
small contractor, and then with J. J.
Booth organized the firm of Booth As |
Flinn, of which business he is now sole
owner. It is the largest general con
tracting concern in Pittsburgh, mak
ing a specialty of municipal con
tracts, and, although for the last few

| years he has been out of politics, he
has always had the bulk of the work.
It was the contracting business that
introduced Flinn into politics, and he
began to dabble in q small way in the
latter seventies. Those were the days
when men fought their way to power,
and Flinn, six feet tali and weighing .
200 pounds, was a fighter by prefer
ence.
Christopher L. Magee, then a young
man. as big as Flinn, but polished and j
suave, had already won a commanding
place in the political life of Pitts
burgh. In the early eighties the re
formers began a fight against him, and
Flinn was numbered among the re
'ormers for the first and only time in
his life. Magee, alwavs a judge of
men, knew a fifhter when he saw one,
and imediately won the young con
tractor to his side. The political
tartnership started in that way lasted
int*! it was severed bv Magee’s death. ,
Senator Quay's power grew in the
state; the Magee-Flinn combination '
grew strong in Pittsburgh. They dom- 1
mated the city and the county as no
Tammany "boss” ever ruled New York, i
They did not like Senator Quay be- |
cause they did not believe he gave
iowe- rpeownition of their power, and
lie looked with anything but favor on
their growing influence. When they
felt strong enough they made a formal

) These two men, then state Senators,
prepared a written instrument in
which it was proposed that they di-
I vide the state patronage with Senator
Quay. He refused to sign it, and they
j with Senator Martin, of Philadelphia,
organized what was known as the
"Hog Combine” in the legislature of
11895, with the purpose of defeating the
' veteran leader.
Senator Quay fought them with all
the resourcefulness of the most expert
boss of his time. In 1901 Senatr Ma
gee died, just as the combination lead
ership had been repudiated by the city
which they had ruled for so many
( years. Senator Quay passed the "rip
per” bill, reorganizing the government
of Pittsburgh, and Flinn announced
his retirement from politics.
For 10 years he waited for the
chance to get back in the game. It
came when the third term candidate
announced his candidacy. The Pitts
burgh “boss” answered the call. He
haunted the Outlook office, and w’hen
the fight was on took charge of the
Pennsylvania end and was called a
leader.
Unless he has changed since he had
! power it will be a mailed-fist, sledge

third term candidate’s campaign in

BLUE RIBBONS WON BY

“Those blue ribbons hanging

sult of diet," said Miss Long,

ported in the Kansas City St«r.
“The horse is Just like the hu
man being in ;espect to diet,"
said Miss Long, “and it is ad
mitted that the races of human
ity that have made the greatest
progress in civilization and the
arts are those that have been
fed the best. However well fed
a horse may be, however good
his heredity may be, he can win
no firsts if he is ill treated and
worried. Food is not the only
factor In life; the mental condi

feeding Is essential to the best

Mr. Richard’s Experience With Dif

Buttermilk for Three Years.
Cccilfon, Md.—Mr. George Richards,
of tins place, during the past 12 years,
has probably tried more different diets
than the average person would ever use
in a lifetime. . |
What he has to say about his experi
ments, must therefore be highly interest
ing to anyone suffering from indigestion
,ir stomach troubles ot any kind.
He says: “For more than 12 years,
f suffered with stomach troubles, and
paid hundreds of dollars for doctor bills
and medicines. 1 was also operated on
for piles.
I lived on dried peaches and buttermilk
for nearly three years. The only thing
that would not give me pain was raw eggs.
I was a physical wreck. I could nol
sleep, and was as near crazy as a man
could well be.
I must say that after taking two 25-cenl
packages of Thedford’s Black-Draught,
it did me more good than all 1 ever spent
for other medicines.
I have been working daily on the farm
ever since, and I am as hard as iron.”
This purely vegetable remedy has been
in successful use tor more than 70 years.
