This is the answer of the Amer
icau people to the vociferous who
are proclaiming calamity from the
stump.
It shows the calm confidence of
the ‘people in the future and in their
ability to work out their salvation
under the blessings of law and pop
kul'ar sovereignty.

country will be the better under

SOLID FOR BRYAN.
The comfort the. opponents,.pf
Democracy are trying’to extrsC'
uut of the qlec'ioi.s in Georgia and
Florida is of the coides? kiijd.
In Florida the contest was Re
tween the Democrats and the Pop
ulists, and granting that the lu-s
in the Democratic vote represents
the gold defection, the result
shows conclusively that the Dem*
qcrats have nothing tc fear In the
November election the Democrats
and their opponents in >his elec
tion wi Ibe togetbf',. a;ud if the
Republicanscan votes
in the Democratic loss to defeat
the combined votes of the Demo
crats and Popu ists, or even to
defeat the . Democrats, they are
welcome to them.
But it is certain that part of
the loss of the Demoura’s was
due to a feeling that it was use
less to go to the polls. In the
contest between Democrats and
Populists the Deuv cra s were
sure of success.
The Georgia returns hold out
glo »mier prospects for the Rept.b
l:cans. Against the combined
opposition of Republic ns and
Populists the D modrate have won
a notable victory. The Democratic
majority over that of two years
| ago has been increased by about,
I’o,ooo. 7 here is abundance of
inargin between this majority
and the normal Democratic de
fictions When the Populist vo <
has be-; m added to the Democratic
vot- the Republicans and Bolto
crats will -be snowed under.
The results in Georgia and
Florida merely emphasize the
statement bf Senator .lores that
the South >inil v\ es't are solid for
Bryan. '

It is often difficult to convince peo
ple their blood is impure, uatU dread
ful carbuncles, abscesses, boils, scrof
ula or salt rheum, are painful proof of
the fact. It is wisdom now, or when
ever there is any indication of
Impure
blood, to take Hood’s Sarsaparilla, and
prevent such eruptions and suffering.
“I had a dreadful carbuncle abscess,
red, fiery, fierce and sore The doctor at
tended me over seven weeks. When the
abscess broke, the pains were terrible, and
I thought I should not live through it. I
heard and read so much about Hood’s
Sarsaparilla, that I decided to take it, and
my husband, who was suffering with
boils, took it also. It soon purified our
Blood
built me up and restored my health so
that, although the doctor said I would
not be able to work hard, I have since
done the work for 20 people. Hood’s Sar
saparilla cured my husband oi the boils,
and we>regard it a wonderful medicine.”

ONE OF JOHN ALLEN’S WITTI
'CISMS.
Last session wtyile John Allen,
of Mississippi was making a speech
in congress a member on the other
«ide of the chamber sought repeat
edly to interrupt him. Mr. Allen
paid no attention to him whatever.
Finally in a desperate »’ l( i
rian voice, the member on the oth
er side called out. “Will the ge:. -
tieman from Mississippi allow me'
to interrupt him for a moment?”
“Is it foi applause?” asked Mr.
A leu. “The gentleman from Mis
sissippi allows no interruption ex
/opt for applause .” /’ ’

this is a cruel joke, but the tumul
