A Crowning Outrage.
The veteran bat indefatigable Sena?
tor John B. Morgan, of Alabama, is
contri buting to the Louisville Cou?
rier-Journal a series of papers expos
ins the inside working of the presi?
dents! Panama schema, in entreating
in scandal and disgrace. The At?bama
senator is more thoroughly informed
on isthmian affairs than any man
alive. It has been with him almost
the sttfdy of a life-time. The Repub?
lican axe very shy in discussing this
matter although Mr. Charles J. Bana
parte, of Baltimore, essays to defend it
on higher law doctrine and the ex?
igencies of the case, while admitting
that if England or Germany had been
in the place of Columbia even Roose?
velt would have remained quiet, casal \

Hr. Watterson says:
"Forty m i lions taken from the
treasury to be given to a syndicate of
Parisian* Stock Gamblers. Tea mil?
lions more to a grooup of stoo-pigeons
tm the isthmus set up by these Stock
Gamblers. A solemn treaty trampled
underfoot. War lenee on a weak
nation by executive order. The whole
beastly swindle as transparant as the
day; horrbie, infamous; and the man
who has put this disgrace upon us,
caa do no wrong!
" Yet, this man ia working his pr?si?
derai campaign from the white house,
which he has converted into a robber
castle, collecting tribute from the
great corporations through Cortelyou,
?is man-of-all-work, having brought
them first to subjection through the
detective system of the department of
commerce. "
No wonder that old-fashioned,
nonet Rebablicans shrink from this
-president and prefer Judge Park ar for
a chief magistrate. They did some
very lawless things themselves, in re?
construction and war times, but ap?
parently have repented or had a
-change of heart
Yet the, man who did this shameful
thing in Panam*, who assumes to be
a law urito hinsself is a presidential

of vmai^vwho claim to be personally
honest and patriotic, are supporting

Po?iica? Outlook in Missouri.
Collier's for October 15 sums up the
political outlook in Missouri by say?
ing:
Among th'Bryan wing of the Demo?
cratic parter there is much disaffec?
tion toward Parker? Missouri Demo?
crats were the first to adopt a 16 to 1
plank in their platform. Although
the Democracy is of the old, rock-rib?
bed sort in tas country districts,
many of the Bryan followers will stay
at home unless Folk can get them out
to vote for him. In that case some of
them will vote :?or Watson or Debs.
The Republicans are working hard np
o2 tills class cf Democrats, circulating
Bryan's famous anti-Parker speech,
made last April. Giving this possible
defection its full weight, taking into
account the powerful enemies Folk has
made, considerag the hostility of But
1er, the debilitaing apathy of Senat- :
Stone,the revclt'of many semi-indepen?
dent Republicans from Folk's asso?
ciates on the ticket, Cook and Allen,
.and Roosevelt's genuine popularity
through the State, the cautious man
will hesitate before tallying Missouri's
eighteen electoral votes in the safely
Democrat ic column. Folk's enemies
can hardly beat Folk, but in the at?
tempt they may do ?hat which they
nave no object in Hoing-turn the
State over to Roosevelt.

The Negro to the Front.
! Tbe New York Tribune, the metro
politan organ of the Republican party,
prints the following special from its
Washington correspondent:
The Rev. D. Ernest Lyon, minister
to Liberia; Harry S. Cummings and
Hiram .Watty, all prominent colored
Republicans of Baltimore, called at;
the White House this afternoon to pay
their respects to President Roosevelt.
Mr. Cummings, who delivered one bf
the speeches seconding the President's
nomination at the Chicago convention,
had been making campaign talks in
Ohio and Ind ir na, and both he and
Mr. Watty are scheduled to make a
number of addresses in the West and
North in the next few days.
"The raising of the race issue by
the Democrats, " said Minister Lyon,
v has had the effect of soldifyine all
the colored vote for the Republican
ticket. Even the old-time colored
Democrats, like Milton Turner, of
Missouri, will come over to the Rep
ub' jan party this fall. We regard
this as the most important campaign,
from the point of view of the colored
race, that has been foogbt in many
years. The colored people of this
country know now wbeie their friends
are to be found. They have discover?
ed that they are not in the ranks of
the David B. Hill party-in the party
of the man who telegraphs to the
Democratic managers io West Vir?
ginia to fight shy of ' the race ques?
tion, and then turns round and makes
speeches in Maryland to incite the
whites against the blacks.J'
The callers expressed great indigna
ion over the tactic? of David B. Hill
and ex-Senator Davis on their soeecb
makiua tour. "They call the Demo?
cratic party 'the white man's party,
and say that1 if Parker is elected he
will not have Booker Washington to
dinner,* " remarked one of them.
"After they are snowed under on
November 8th they may wish that
they had not talked that way. They
are doing all in their power to in?
crease the bitterness between the
races and to bring the Southern intol?
erance of the colored . mau's rights
noTtb of Mason and dixon's line."
Now, ali ye white men who are in
favor of another term of Rooseveltism,
or who are indifferent, read the
above to your comfort. See what
"Dr." Lyon and "Mr." Cummings
and "Mr." Watty have to say. The
negroes are for Roosevelt because be
is for them; they "know where their
political friends are." and after the
lection, if Roosevelt is elected, Demo?
cratic speakers will be sorry that they
made any reference to the "Booker
Washington incident." No "Southern
intolerance" will be tolerated by
President Roosevelt, after he has been
elected. v \ .
Read that, white mea, and say who
is forcing the race issue into this
campaign.-Richmond Times.
The World in Peace.
St. Francis ;.;javier, three centnries

Jar^nese; 'rTne nation with which we
have to deal here surpasses in good?
ness any of the nations ever discover?
ed. They are of a kindly disposition,
wonderfully desirous of honor, which
is placed above everything else. They
listen with great avidity to discourses
about'.God and divine things. Their
spiritual interest is what the nations
rely upon now to counteract the mili?
tary 6ide of Japanese nature after the
war is finished, and keep Japan from
being an obstacle to the world's desire
for tranquil life Mr. Hay, in his
xddress at Boston, before the Peace
Conference, pledged the Administra?
tion to do what it could for peace, but
pointed out the reasons for holding
back certain steps in advance until the
situation changes in the Orient. Au
increased desire for peace is unmistak?
able. In no country is the change
?hown with as much distinctness as in
France, but it can be found, in vary?
ing degress, all over the world. The

2vitably follow sometime if Japan is

settling far reaching dfficulties, in?
crease the probabilities of peace.

When the Kidneys fail to perform their functions properly by not straining out the poison?
ous waste matter from the blood as it passes through them, the poisons are carried by the
circulation to every part of the body, deranging the different organs. This causes heart
trouble, stomach trouble, sluggish liver and a host of other ills, all due to deranged Kidneys.

Mr. Robert G. Barke, Elnora, Saratoga Co., N. Y., writes:-I aro glad to have an oppor?
tunity of telling what magnificent results I have had from using FOLEY'S KIDNEY
CURE after having tried other advertised medicines and several physicians. Before I began
it I had to get up from X2 to 20 times each night to relieve my bladder. I was all bloated up
with dropsy and my eyesight was so impaired that I could scarcely see one of my family
across the room. In fact, I was so badly used up that I had given up hope of living when I
was urged by a friend to try FOLEY'S KIDNEY CURE. One 50-cent bottle worked won?
ders, and before I had taken the third bottle the superfluous flesh had gone, as well as all
other symptoms of Kidney trouble. My friends were surprised that I was cured, as they
all thought I was going to die. Every few days some one comes from miles away to learn
the name of the wonderful medicine that cured me of Bright's Disease, and not one that
has tried it has failed to be bensfitted.
