Most politicians are either poor or else they know other ways ot spending tbeir money than iu pay ing taxes. Let not the French people be alarmed. Though Mr. Rockefeller is now looking over France, that is no sign he means to buy it That Pennsylvania rairoad clerk who saved $75,000 in a few years, 'working on a salary ot $126 a month, was certainly economical. Considering bis experience with his statehood and meat inspection bills, no one can say that Senator Beveridge is not earning {5,000 a year- . Mr. Bryan fs not cliashiug the nomination, but if the nomination "chases him," it probably will find him making no violent efforts to get away. If President Cassatt is going to fire "every one" under him who took graft, the Penn. railway of fice should lie a good place to ap ply for a job. The Washington Post is cruel to Hobson. It says that the names of only Bryan, Hearst and Bailey are l>eiiig seriously considered for the Presidency 011 the Democratic ticket in 1908. Lincoln, Neb., is just at present, the most impassive city in the whole country. Pshaw! It knew Bill Bryan when he used to go round 111 his shirt sleeves. We can see now why the coal bills wt*re so heavy by the time the product got to the consumer. The coal was obliged to stop at almost every station along the way and toss off a little bag of graft. With some people it apjiears to lie all right to eat almost any kind of adulterated foOd r so long as it hasn't t>eeii publicly exposed. What they can't stand is to have the neighbors know that what they are eating is unck-r suspicion. Sotisa is right. The phonograph should l»e suppressed, when it l>e longs to one of the neighbors, who has 110 idea that others ever want to sleep. Of course, if it s belongs to you, the suppression of the sweet musical instrument would be an infringement 011 your con -1 stitutional rights. Pennsylvania arose in its might, last fall, snd hurled Quayism and bossism to destruction, but its 1 "ghosts has risen ""again in Pen rose. I( is up to the Democrats to "throw old Guffey into the gut ter," where he belongs and endorse Emery, the sterling and incor ruptible patriot, and thus rid the State of the domination of Penrose and Guffey at the same time. Miss Krupp, daughter of the gun manfacturer, draws an annual income of over $5,000,000, all of which goes to show that the uni versal disarmament idea is not making much material headway. You cannot persuade a lower an imal to eat heartily when not feel ing well. A sick dog starves him self and gets well. The stomach, once overworked, must have rest the same as your feet or eyes. You don't have to starve to rest your stomach. KODOL FOR DYS PEPSIA takes up the work for your Hi"*!**: l *, digests what you eat and gives it a rest. Puts It THE riOST PRESSING NEED OF WILLI AMSTON. It is well occasionally for a town or city to "take stock" and there by ascertain whether or not it is going backward, at g standstill or progressing. A town, like a bus iness enterprise, is rarely ever at a standstill. If it is not progressing it is evidently taking strides in the backward direction. If, after "taking stock," the town finds itself practically at a standstill, so called, then it should look around for the causes of such stagnation. If, on the other hand, it finds itself progressing, it can easily (mint out what has brought about progress, and, profiting by past experiences, put on foot some movement which will result in far more rapid progress. Let us 'take stock"'of the town of Williamslon. In doing this we find that the town, within the last few years, has made wonderful progress aloug many lines. For , instance, compare the population, the number of banks, the number and character of the verious busi ** ness houses, church and school fa cilities, number of brick buildings, new streets, etc., with what we had here five or six yeais ago. It is astounding to contemplate the changes and improvements along these lines. The banks and other busine.yrlioujes compare favorably with those of cities of twenty-five thousand population. These things the citizens of this continuity can point toyvith pardonable pride. While we can justly boast of the above mentioned improvements and the public spirit that prevails in our town, yet there is need of a great awakening of the citizens for improvement of the streets. This is the most important of all im provenielits that any town can make. It is most noticeable of all else to a visitor. Now, Williamston can have good, dry streets at very little ex pense. All that is necessaiy would l>e to keep the gutters clean ed out and throw the dirt in the middle of the street. Some of our streets are lower in the centre than 011 the sides, where gutters should l>e. We understand that there is money in the town treasury, and we would suggest that the authori ties have gutters cut out along by t iKMiiileWalks and use the street" machine in grading. We have the machine standing idle and money in the treasury. Why not have better streets? They are not at all in keeping with other improve ments and the progressiveness of Williamston. This, and the trim ming of the trees are the most needed improvements that can at present lie made in Williamston. With these improvements Wil liamston can easily be classed with the most progressive towns in the State. Why not have them? Cuban Dlirrkou United States soldiers who serv ed in Cnba during the Spanish war know what this disease is, and that ordinary remedies have little more effect than so much water. Cuban diarrhoea is almost as severe and dangerous as a mild attack of cholera. There is one remedy, however, that can always be de pended upon as will be seen by the following certificate from Mrs. Minnie Jacobs, of Hotts'.on, Texas: "I hereby certify that Chamber lain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy cured my husband of a severe attack of Cuban diarrhoea which he brought home from Cuba. We hail several doctors but they did him no good. One bottle oi this remedy cured him as our neigh l>ors will testify. I thank Ood for so valuable a medicine.*' For sale by S. R. Biggs.
