Nate Hawkins (excuse the blunder — Senator Hawkins) of Jay county, Is still making a noise like a man looking for something Nate wants to represent this district in congress. He is spending money now to feel the public pulse. The pulse of the voters seems to be in bad condition for Nathan, and then besides he seems to have a foolish notion that the people are going to settle the nomination. Nate had better turn his attention to Geo. W. Cromer, the man who has the power to nominate any man he choses, even himself. The Banner can give Hawkins a quiet tip that his candidacy is not even considered by Cromer. Take this pointer and save your money, Mr. Hawkins. —Bluffton Banner. City Attorney Strong complimented the councilmen on the nerve they displayed in voting to tax the cost of the alley crossings and half of the cost of the street crossings on Main and Market streets to the city. In view of the fact that the city paid it all when the other streets were paved, the property owners on Main and Market streets would have admired the nerve of the council men much

more had they decided to tax the city for both street and alley crossings complete,—-Columbia City Post. In its annual report the steel trust admits that it made a net profit of more than 1160.G00.000 last year. Its net profit tor the year previous was about the same. Three hundred and twenty millions of profit off of American consumers in two years as the result of the "protection" which the steel trust gets from a Republican tariff —a tariff which enables the trust to hold up the people of this country and rifle their pockets while it sells its products abroad at much cheaper prices. Every trust in the United States will join the Republicans in a demand for a tariff commission. A tariff commission merely means years of delay and no relief for the people at the end of it.

My work requires a good strong back and when that part of my body was made weak, it was very difficult to continue my work For two years I was troubled with kidney complaint and could not do' anything. Backache clung to me. the attacks sometimes being so severe that I almost had to give up. Sometimes I was so stiff and sore that I could not get home, and even in the morning I did not feel as well as I should have felt. I began using Doan':- Kidney Pills procured at the Holthouse Drug Co.’s store and they helped me wonderfully and soon I was completely relieved. In 1902 I was glad to recommend Doan’s Sidney Pills through the newspapers. ' and I am willing now that you should continue the publication of my statement.
