Multudes are singing the praise of
Kodol, the new discovery that is ma
king so many sick people well and
weak people strong by digesting
what they eat, by cleansing and
sweetening the stomach and by
transforming their food into the
kind of pure, rich, red blood that
makes you feel good all over. Mrs.
Cranfill, of Troy, I., T., writes: I
or a number of years was troubled
with indigestion and dyspepsia that
grew into the worst form. Finally I
vas inducefl to try Kodol and after
uqing four bottle I am entirely cur-(-d.
l heartily recommend Kodol 'to
nil sflferers from indigestion or dys
pepsia.' Take a dose after ach
fneal. It digests what you cat. T.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Frw ou Beg tlar CirriH-deot.
Wb?n it was first realized
that the Republicans had
woo complete control of the
House of Representatives it
proved a bitter disappoint
uient to the democratic lead
ers in Washincron who had
.labored so indefaligably all
summer, but as the smoke of
the battle clears nway and it
is possible to take a n.ore dis
passionate view of the situa
tion there are"many consol
ing features of the "repabli-
can victory." Governor Odell
who carried New York State
by a fnniorityofllO.OOOttto
years ago, wa. this year elee
tedbjso small a majority
that it is evident!to every
one, familiar with the situa
tion, that a closer s.nervis
ion of the "up-state" pollinir
places ould have meant his
Meat while, if such a man as
Judge Parker had been the
nominee. Mr. Odell would
have been snowed under. A-
gain, prosperity in the party
as is inevitably the case, has
given rise to the numerous
feuds despite the President a
appeal to ''hang together."
A number of Republican Sen
ators and Representatives
have been in Washington du
ring the past week and all
emphatically declare that
there will be no change in the
tariff schedules. Theyareun
doubtedly correct but how
will that please the western
element of the party, the Io-
wans and Minnesotiansespec
iallv?
Another point which must
be remembered in connection
with the recent campaign is
that there was a congress
ional nominee reported to
Judge Griggs that his dis
trict was close and ihit it
would require a few hundred
dollars and perhaps the ser
vices of an able speaker to
pull bite throOgh and the
Judge spared him a small a-
mount out of his carefully
treasured fund. Representa
t i v e Babcock immediately
sent several speakers an s?v
ernl hundred dollars into the
district. The democrats will,
however, establish perman
ent campaign headquarters
in the near future and will
use every legitimate means
to amass a campaign fund
and perfect the organization
before thegreut fight of 1904.
There were many incidents of
the .recent flnt which were
carefully noted and which
will be must available in the
future. The final conclusion
of Judge Griggs.asexpressed
to your correspondent, is
that ua6 straws show which
way the wind blows, so there
are many, straws that point
to democratic victory two
3 ears hence,"
There is a good deal of gos
sip in Washington at present
in regard to the future of Ar
thur P. Gorman, Senator e-
lect from Maryland. Mr. Gor
man is an astute politician
and an able leader and it is
assumed that he will prompt
ly become the leader of t h e
Democratic side of the Sen
ate. The republicans, talking
among themselves, say that
he will prove a thorn m their
flesh and many prominent
democrats say "He is a safe
roan to watch." '
The announcement made
lust week by Represenfatire
Dalzell, who came to Wash
ington for the purpose, tbaf
be will be a candidate for the
speakership is the first actu
al opening of a fight which
promises to prove interesting
and bitter. Mr. Dalzell will
stand for theextremest phase
of protection and those mem
bers who are unalterably op
posed to tariff revision will
doubtless flock to his sup
port. On rhe other hand, Rp
resentative Babcock ' w i 1 1
make a fight for. the speaker
ship rind he is believed to rep
resent the "moderate revis
ion" faction. Representative
Cannon, of Illinois, will make
a vigorous contest for thepo
sition and he has heretofore
beep the favorite. Mr.Uttle
field, of Maine, whose great
anti-trust movement ap
pears to hare flashed in the
pan, fs altio a candidate and
before the struggle is over
there is likely to be a pretty
quarrel.
A report from Iowa to the
ffcet that Speaker Header
son will attempt to wrest the
gubernatorial nomination
from Governor Cumminsand
in that way to discredit the
author of a protest against
thone tariff schedules "which
shelter the trusts," is receiv
ed with considerable credence
in Washington. It is further
alleged that Secretary Shaw
desires the vice presidential
nomination and that he
would look with a favorable
eye to (the total eel ipse of Cum
inins. Secretary Shaw was
seen by your correspondent
after the Friday meeting at
the White House, and be
then denied all knowledge of
the Speaker's intention, hut
he may have learned them
since.
Senator Beveridge is here
seeking to make arrange
ments whereby he and. the
other members of the Senate
Committee on Territories
may make a jaunt through
Oklahoma, Arizona and New
Mexico at government ex
pense, preparatory to repor
ting the bill for thefr admis
sion to statehood, which
passed the House at the
last session. Greatly against
his will, Mr. Beveridge was.
forced, by Senator Quay, to
promise that this bill should
be reported at the first term
of this session and he will
doubtless do so but he will
Orst enjoy a junkett as the
priee of his surrender.
The' Anthrarite coal strike

DISASTROUS WRECKS.
Carelessness is responsible for
many a railway wreck and the
same caunes are making Iinman
wreck? of sufferers from throat
nd lung troubles. But since the
advent of Dr. King's New Discov
ery for consumption, coughs and
colds, even the worst cases can be
cured and hopeless resignation is
no longer necsjsary. Mrs. Lois
Cragg, of Dorchester, Mhs., is
one ot many whose lile.was saved
by Dr. King's New Discoverv.

found, on hie return to Wash
ington, acceptances from a
majority of the independent
operators in the anthracite
region to the invitation to
become party to the arbitra
tion to be conducted by the
Commission, and he hasten
ed to the White Houoe to ins
form the President of t h e
fact as the supposed hostile
attidude of those operators
had occasioned considerable
anxiety as to the outcome of
the Commission's work.
The President and his fam
ily are once more living in
the White House, although
Mr. Roosevelt will soon de
part ou another trip. He will
leave first for New York.
From thence he will go south
and will attend the reception
to Luke E. Wright, vice gov-
error of the Philippines, at
Memphis on November the
19th. He will then go to Phil
adelphia to attend the ban
qnet of the Union League
Club and will not return to
Washington finally until the
22nd. Only that portion of
the White House occupied by
the President's family is com
pie ted, the renovation being
little more than half done in
the east room and in various
btafjof progress in other
portions of the bouse.
