The Lexington Dispatch Wednesday, November 26,1902. Wanted?Statesmen. Manning Times. Political theories may do very well on the hustings, but when it comes to putting them into practice, it matters not whether in the north or south, our business interest must be consulted. The red, white and blue, or the stars and bars sentiment will not finance this great government, nor will it reduce taxation. The only thing such pretty sentiments are good for, is to give some fellow whose - - i j stomach is tilled with gmger oreau, and bis brain is reeling with whisky, a chance to holler lustily "hurrah." What is need to run this government is the same force that runs any well organized and systemized business enterprise. Who of us care whether the Monroe doctrine is right or wrong, or whether the Philippine commission get through with their work this yeai? What we are interested in, is, who of our statesmen can find . a way to push the products of this country into a demanding market, so that our farms can get ^ood pay for their produce, our mills may run day " * - - - ? % j and night tarnishing laoor wnn goou wages, the furnaces of our foundaries kept at red hot pace all the time, and our lumber plants always in a whirl We need statesmen who can fix the tax laws equitably and juBt, so that the rich as well as the poor may pay alike; we want statesmen who can give protection to the man who invests his money, and keep the laborer from being imposed upon. We do not need men in our law making branch who are law breakers at heart, whose political composition is made up of anarchism and communism. > Unfortunately this element has a strong bold upon the government. The man who wants the government to own and control railroads, telegraph and telephone lines, coal' and iron mines, would also want the government to own and control the lumber mills and stores, which would be a "pretty kettle of fish." This class of men really do not want one half they harange their bearers with, but it catches an element who would rather loaf than work; they preach annh dnetrines for votes, but when they accomplish their purpose we hear bo more from them until the next election rolls around. David Bennet Hill, the New York aspirant for the Presidency, made a spectacle of himself by taking advantages of the unfortunate coal strike to make political capital. Mr. Hill, knowing that the laboring man had been out of work and was stomach pinched, bleated out, let the government take charge-of the coal mines, thinking that it would elect his candidate Governor, and make him the Democratic nominee for President, but Coler was not elected, and Hill ain't in it a little bit, because his recent tumble to communism has relegated him as a consideration when a statesman is wanted. \ ? ? yUW?l4U4i. AASWSi'VU. Tes, August Flower still has the largest sale of any medicine in the civilized world. Your mothers' and grandmothers'never thought of usiDg ' anything else for Indigestion or Biliousness. Doctors were scarce, and they seldom heard of Appendicitis, Nervous Prostration or Heart failure, etc. They used August Flower to dean out the system and stop fermentation of undigested food, regulate the action of the liver, stimulate the nervous and organic action of the system, and that is all they took when feeling dull and bad with headaches and other aches. You only need a few doses of Green's August Flower, in liquid form, to make you satisfied there is nothing serious the matter with you. You can get this reliable remedy at Kaufmann's Drug Store. Get Green's Special Almanac. 12?33 Notes from Ziondike. To the Editor of the Dispatch: Wheat, wheat, everywhere we see the farmers putting in more acres oi biscuits. Now why a farmer buys most of his dour is somewhat a misfceiy to me. Are you a farmei? H so, what do you farm for? Just to make food for your stock and buy your own? Well, I guess laziness and carelessness are two of the prime reasons why you don't make GDough to feed yourself. A c\clone that passed over the Pond Branch section dipped down near Mr. Simon Rikard's and cleared about an acre?twisting off large pines?and then rose again and passed on. We understand that it ceme down again not very far away, but do not know if any damage was done. I should have said Miss Francis Lindler is teaching the Pond Branc h J school. President Roosevelt can't kill Bear, but Lonnie Kjzer and Tilmon can kill coons after two or three very exciting chases in which the very swamps were cleaned up by the doge. The boys proceeded to count tbe g*me. Here it is: Coons 1900? 1897, o'possums 1 and I think they caught one rabbit. Now this is the actual catch, I wouldn't; try to enumerate the number they killed in J their dreams. Just like the Editor ] chasing the ever elusive dollar. 1 Klondike. Stepped Against a Hot Stove. , A ebild of Mrs. Geo. T. BensoD, j when getting his usual Saturday night bath, stepped back against a hot stove which burned him severely. . The child was in great sgony and . his mother could do nothing to pacify him. Remembering that she had a bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm in the house, she thought she would t try it. In less than half an hour after applying it the child was quiet and asleep, and in less than two c weeks was well. Mrs. Benson is a ? well known resident of Kellar, Va. Pain Balm is an antiseptic liniment i and especially valuable for burns, cuts, bruises and sprains. For sale by J. E. Kaufmann. ' ** 1 t His So?, Moreover. "What's your dog's name, Uncle Lazarus?" asked the man, according to Brooklyn Life. "Boss, dat purp hez got er Bible name." "A Bible name?" "Yes, sab, Massa. He's got de same name as Laz'rus dog got, wot we read 'bout in de Bibul as lay down afore de rich man gate." "But the Bible does not give the name of any dog. It only says that they came and licked Lazarus' sores." ."Boss, yer yent read urn right." "Moreober. I yerry my mistiss read um what hit says: "Moreober de dog came and licked de sores.' Yent yera see? My name Laz'rus an' my dog name Moreober. Bress ( de Lawd." A Startling Surprise. Very few could believe in looking at A. T. Hoadley, a healthy, robust blacksmith of Tilden, Ind., that for ten years he suffered such tortures from Rheumatism as few could endure and live. But a Wonderful change followed his taking Electric Bitters. "Two bottles wholly cured me," he writes, "and I have not felt a twinge in over a year." Theyregu late the Kidneys, purify the blood and cure Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Nervousness, improve digestion and give perfect health. Try them. ' Only 50 cts. at J. E.

Breaking into a blszing home, some 1 firemen lately dragged the sleeping 1 inmates from death. Fancied secu rity, and death near. It's that way when you neglect coughs and colds, t Don't do it.
