Below are a few pungent editorial
squibs from the Sparta Ishmaclite :
The c uutry has uever seen Bryan’s
equal as a campaigner.
Brojber William McKinley will he
known in history us the Great Wob
bler.
When the time comes, you will prob
ab y see that Senator (Jlay will succeed
himself.
Bryan is the greatest leader that the
country has produced since Andrew
Jackson’s day.
The man who swerves from the right
for the sal e either of gam or populari
ty is already lost.
One of the most pitable of all spec
tacles is a little man swelling and strut
tiug iu a great office.
It would be a little peculiar if Ne
braska were to go for McKiolty and
Ohio were to cart its electoral vole
ior Bryan.
Senators Bacon and Clay and Rep
resentatives Livingston aud Griggs
have doue some good campaigning in
the North aud West.
r l he Legislature can do good work
for ihe State by reforming the pension
and school systems. But great is the
faith of the man who believes that it
will do it.
Ilobsoh’s Sampson propaganda in
the South will briug him iuto just ridi
cule. A very brave man may be a
great humbug. This seems exactly to
cover Uobsou’s case.
Judges aud Solicitors who get de
feated before the people naturally con
clude that the Legislature should take
the election out of the hands of the
people. It is easily understood.
Some of the pin feathered statesmen
of the Legislature have started a move
ment against the election of judges and
solicitors by the people, and the people
should take an early start to defeat It.
Every office should be elective.
It is much easier to deceive one man
than it is to hoodwink all the people.
Officials should not be appointed in any
case where the duties of their office are
of a public aud general nature.

To be cured ot catarrh? If you or
your friends have this disease, you
know how disagreeable it is. Its symp
toms are inflamed eyes, throbbing tem
ples, ringing noises in the ears, head,
capricious appetitp, and constant dia
charge of mucus. Fortunately its cure
is not a question of what you will give,
but what you will take. It you will
take Hood’s Sarsaparilla, the great
constitutional remedy, which thorough
ly purifies, enriches and vitaliezes the
blood, you may expect to be com
pletely and permanently cured. The
good blood which Hood’s Sarsaparilla
makes, reaebiug the delicate passages oi
the mucus membrane, soothes and re
builds the tissues and ultimately cures
ail symptoms of catarrh.

‘•lf I were running things,” said a
throat specialist one eveuiog receucly,
“I’d have a law passed prohibiting the
singing of ‘coon songs ’ I have had a
great deal to do with singers lately,
and half of those who come to me are
iuff -riug directly from the singing of
coon songs. I can’t b"giu to tell how
many voices have been hopelessly ruin
ed by the silly fad, but unless it is
stopped there will hatdly be singers
uougb to go around in a year or two
more.. My patients say they sing ‘rag
time’ just for fuu, and I say they just as
well swallow flies to kill time. '1 tie
coon song is hurting more than the
voice, too. It is ruiniug the mauucs
of young people. Why, in my day a
young girl would trip (faintly to the
pia. o and siug ‘Loreua,’ or ‘Daisy
Deal ,’ or ‘Gentle Auuir,’ or ‘Belle
Mahoue,’ or some other sentimental or
iad\ like ballad, but now—well I went
ou to call on some nieces of mine the
other evening and I asked one of them
to sing. She had a short skirt on and
t boy’s shoes, and she bounced across
the room like what we used to call a
tomboy.’ My niece fluDg herself at
the piano and and began to bang out a
‘ragtime’ accompaniment. A minute
later she was bawling something
through her sf .ffiy contracted throat,
‘Nigger, give me back dat night key.’
It’s enough to make our grandmoth
ers Juru over in their graves—the
thought of a young gentlewoman doing
her li.st to imitate a field hand. Jt is
destructive to voice and manners, the
‘coon song’ is, and if I were the powers
that be 1 ’d put an end to it.”

Consumption
is, by no means, the dreadful
disease it is thought to be—
in the beginning.
It can always be stopped—
in the beginning. The trouble
is: you don't know you’ve got
it; you don’t believe it; you
won't believe it— till you are
forced to. Then it is danger
ous.
Don't be afraid ; but attend
to it quick— you can do it your
self and at home.
