EMPHATIC TALK.

The Kind That Carries Conviction to Every Crawfordsville Reader.

Conviction must follow such emphat ic proof as is given here. The testimony of Crawfordsville residents should satisfy the most skeptical. Here is a Crawfordsville case. Read it and see if doubt can exist in the face of this evidence.

Mr. Fred Perkins, of Crawford hotel barber shop, says: "My back ached so severely, particularly when I stood all day working, that it was often a uimcult matter to put up with the annoyance. Aches and pains in the back are hard enough on a man who does not, require to bring the muscles of that part of his anatomy into play at his calling, but when ever you move hurts as it does in mine. Life ^becomes a burden until I got Doan's Kidney Pills at Moffett & Morgan's drug store. I was unable to find anything to do me the slightest bit .of permanent good. I believe I improved after the first dose of Doan's Kidney Pills. At the present time backache and I have been Strang era for some monti

FRIDAY, MAY 10, 1901.

LET us save while we can, so as to be strong if the storms come.—McRinley.

THE happiest people in the world are those who are the best employed.—McKinley.

WE know that whatever others may say, this to us and for us is the best country in the world.—McKinley.

THE Tagals of the Springfield Rcjmblican are about ithe only ones now in arms, and in their case the pen does not seem to be mightier than the sword.

RUSSELL SAGE declares that the wild speculations of the stock gamblers have a serious menace to existing conditions of prosperity. The wise man will keep out of the markets.

IT must be a little disheartening to the anti-imperialists to hear that the army will be recruited to only threefourths of its authorized limit. They were sorrowfully predicting that it would really have to be increased.

ONE-HALF of the British loan has been allotted, and of that half onethird comes to the United States. Isn't it about time for the "calamity howlers" to raise another cry of our being mortgaged by the gold standard to the money sharks of London.

THE Indianapolis Sentinel protests against Congressman Landis delivering the graduating address at Lebanon. It says that the subject of his address, "Be an Optimist," indicates that it will be a rank Republican speech. Reasoning from this basis we presume that if his subject were "Be a Pessimist" he would be booked for a rank Democratic speech. There is a good deal in the Sentinel's logic.

JACOB JOEL, of this city, will go before the next Republican state convention as a candidate for the nomination of treasurer of state. That he will receive the loyal support of his county and district goes without saying. For many years he has been an active and energetic Republican and the business reputation he sustains would add strength to the ticket. He is a substantial man well qualified in every way for the office and the sincere wish of his friends will be a spur to their en deavor to land the honor for him.

THE United States has provided that Cuba shall not mortgage herself to any European power, shall give us naval bases upon her soil, shall permit us to intervene to maintain peace and order if need arise. By these precautions we d6 not destroy Cuba's independence we guarantee it. We do not demolish Cuban liberty we preserve and defend it. We throw over Cuba the shield of our might, and guard her with the sword of our power. We do these things because we are answerable to the world for Cuba. The truth is that we are giving to Cuba, in another way the protection and security which our constitution requires the. national gov eminent to give to each of the states, The nation is pledged to guarantee to each state a Republican iorm of gov ernment. In turn each state is required to assist the nation in defending the union's integrity. With Cuba the na tion is more generous. It gives Cuba protection from internal and external foes, and requires nothing in return.

A "BUSTJKD IDOL."

Nashville American, (Dem.): The Rebel is the name of an obstreperous but inconsequental journal published in Philadelphia. Its chief purpose apparently is to villify the United States and glorify the motley tribes of the Philippine archipelago, and its utterances are as meat and drink to the Atkinsons, Winslows and other masculine old maids "down east," who would't even shoulder a gun to oppose the despoilation of thecapitol at Washington by a foreign foe, and who would crawl under the bed or flee to the cellar if anybody should happen to pop a firecracker in their neighborhood. But the Rebel's chief idol and star hero has fallen from his pedestal, and this is why it thus remarks:

A week ago the editor of the Hebcl regretted that he had not the honor of a personal acquaintance with Emil Aguinaldo, the supposed hero of the Philippines. He felt then that it would have been a real honor to know a man of his guinea stamp. He apparently belonged to the class of eminent rebels such as Lucifer, Martin Luther, Washington, Robert E. Lee. The Rebel thought of Funston as a mere Kansan adventurer. But the news of the Malay's ignominious desertion of his cause and written apology to our government makes him one of the most pitiable (whereas he might have been one of the most honored) figures in all history.

We rejoice in the Rebel's sorrow. We delight in its agonizing misery. We trust anguish will consume it to the very marrow. There is no punishment too severe for anything or anybody who would seek to compare Aguinaldo with George Washington or Robert E. Lee.

AN English newspaper sounds the following timely warning: "Up to the present only a few of the British manufacturers, and we fear none of the workmen, in the iron industries have at all realized the forces that are at work, the magnitude and enormous natural advantages and resources which the Americans possess, with their cheap ore and coal combined with their skill and enterprise, their labor-saving appliances, their low railway rates and water freightage of their ores from mines to furnaces, and the best equipped works in the world. All this places them at a great advantage, whilst England has hitherto been working according to antiquated "ding-dong" methods. Those Manufacturers who have visited the states are quite alive to the seriousness of the situation, and they appreciate the necessity for themselves and their engineers to invent new methods, and to adopt those in operation in America, so as to reduce the cost of manufacture and bring themselves into line with the most modern adaptations, thus fitting themselves to compote in the cominsr race with American competition. If this is done Britain may yet supply a fair proportion of the world's requirements of steel products, but if she fails to rise to the occasion her past industrial pre-eminence will pass away.::

THE Northwestern University professor who claimed that he has never kissed a woman has been outdone by the Chicago University professor who boasted before his class that he had done so frequently. The man who kisses and tells is infinitely .worse than the liar who simply denies the soft impeachment. That Northwestern man will be more popular than ever with the co eds.

SPRAY your fruit trees and don't be afraid of getting it on too thick. The reason that Indiana no longer ranks as a fruit state is because her farmers and fruit growers have neglected the sprayer. In the early day this weapon was not needed but as the state grew older new pests multiplied. The only defense is poison and plenty of it.

THE national debt was decreased four and a half millions during the month of April. The Republican party can conduct a war and reduce the national debt at the same time.

Dr. Tharp Will Stay.

Dr. Wallace Tharp Sunday announced to his congregation that he had decided to remain in charge of the Christian church here for another year. His friends are highly pleased at his decision, as they feared that he might leave.

A Fox Den.

Sunday at the Stover place A1 and Will Doyle dug out a fox den, capturing five young foxes alive, the mother being shot as she ran away. The young ones will be raised, as their pelts are quite valuable.

Plenty of Fish.

Horace Law and James Harding returned last Monday from Bass Lake where they spent a week iq fishing. They report the sport as fine and brought home with them a large number of fish

PETERSBURG, 111., Oct. 13th, 1899. PEPSIN SYRUP CO., Monticello, 111. Gentlemen:—Our baby Esther has never tasted a drop of medicine other than Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin for more than a year. It entirely cured her of constipation. She is a lovely child and since I gave her your med icine she has been perfectly healthy, although she had not been well and strong until we began using it. We know of others who are using it with equally good results. Wishing you success, Gratefully yours,

Darlington vs. New Richmond,

And Father Abraham would mount a camel and go cameliting all over the land.—Sweeney at Darlington.

When Ira Stout learned that Sweeney would lecture at New Richmond on May 2, he conceived the idea of doing the handsome to as many of his friends as he could haul in one of Miller's hacks to New Richmo'nd. Accordingly he invited six, not his customers entirely, but his friends, to partake of his hospitality and a seat in the hack, a drive to New Richmond and a seat in the hall to hear said Sweeney. Accordingly promptly at 2 p. m. Thursday the hack stood in waiting as at a certain marriage feast long ago. Excuses beganjto arrive. One must needs stay at home for business reasons, another for fear of the weather. Stout differing from the man of old in that he went himself on the 9treets and alleys of Darlington, and soon the hack was loaded and away went Miller's big yellow steeds for Now Richmond with one of the most conglomerated loads of humanity they had eyer drawn. And this was the hearse team. Rev. J. S. Crowder, as spiritual advisor, in company with Gen. Shatter—sometimes known as Bill Morrison—chose the back seat. N. B. Coberly, to attend to the legal part of the trip, with Harry Cameron to furnish the dignity for the crowd. Seated with them was our host, Ira Stout. Now Ira at times walks among the spirits, but on this occasion he forgot his calling and all things spiritual was left to the Reverend. On the front seat sat A. R. Peterson, editor of the Darlington Echo, but on this occasion his whole mission was to see John McCardle and look after the musical part of the programme. Sam Martin, with the ribbons in his hands, as chaperone of the whole party, sent the team spinning across the hollows of Lye Creek, up the Winter's hill, past the down slope along the Wils Hunt farm at a lively gait, across the big ditch and out in the open prairie, the very ideal of God's handiwork where each vied with-the other in trying to describe the many beauties of nature that now enchanted the entire company.^Many even now envied the man behind the plow, and told of the many happy hours heihad there spent, while the team went gaily down the road, passing the beautiful homes of the many prosperous and happy farmers Arriving at [Linden someone proposed refreshments, and without any precedent each looked at the other and said, "I'll take ice cream soda." -A chill came running down our back as we thought of the proper refreshments

Linden could furnish and that we would not be compelled to use a spoon. We now bid farewell to Linden and its soda and again fairly flesv over the prairie. The soda, contrary,to custom, seemed to warm the^brain and soon Bro. Crowder was expounding on the beauties of nature, and he cried in his ecstacy of joy, "See the little lambkins as they skip." Here a roar from the crowd caused him to pause, and Coberly was called upon to explain that those lanbkins were Tommy Wilkins' jersey hogs 5:30 arrived at New Richmond where we found John McCardle, George and Doc Washburn with open arms to receive us, and we were ready to be received. That part was soon over and we safely landed in the famous Black

Bear tavern, where we were soon joined by Rev. H. C. Weston, of New Richmond, and Rev. J. D. Kruewl, of Shawnee, Ind. We now thought we were supplied in a spiritual way but soon came another installment, consisting of Rev. Wallace Tharp and wife and Elder A. L. Crim, of Crawfordsville, with t.he speaker of the evening making six of the craft: so that even our soda was neglected and we were turned over to that princess of landladies, Mrs. Kirkpatrick, and our pen cannot describe the feast we sat down to. Suffice to say that our trip home failed to yet create an appetite. After supper John McCardle led the way to his beautiful home, many of which New Richmond can boast, and entertained us on his pianola for an hour.

Then came the lecture, "The Golden Age." Although we had listened to the same the evening before, we were profound listeners, and all joined in saying the last was the best, and to fully appreciate a good thing must hear it repeated, and if we see the name of Sweeney on a hand bill within a day's travel we will be there. At 2 a. m. at home', all join in thanking our host, Ira Stout, and with one accord acknowledge like all of us, he may have his faults and frailties, but as an entertainer he is a success, and we are the better by his having lived among us.
