Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 19, Number 2, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 10 September 1897 — Page 4

The Republican. OFFICIAL PAPER OF JASPER COUNTY ISSUED EVERY TUESDAY A FRIDAY BY GEORGE E. MARSHALL, PUBLISHER AND PROPRIETOR. OFFICE— In Republican building on corner of Washington and Weston Streets. TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION. One Year §1.50 Six Months .75 Three Months .50 Friday, September 10, 1897.

Is Mr. Bryan going to sit quietly by and perhaps allow the statesmen of Mexico, through the direction of the London ‘‘gold power,” to commit another crime? After a series of regular Democratic rows, the Pennsylvania Democratic Convention endorsed the Chicago free-silver platform, cheered wildly for Bryan, nominated a ticket, and then adjourned. What fools these mortals be. Four hundred and fifty thousand British guineas from Australia have been received in San Francisco, in payment for exportations of American wheat. This is another case where the Western farmer is being tramped upon by the gold ppwer of Great Britain, “Blessed is the country whose soldiers fight for it and are willing to give the best they have, the best that any man has, their own lives, to preserve it, because they love it. Such an army the United States has always commanded in all her history.”—President McKinley at Buffalo. It seems as though everything had turned against the calamity shriekers, whether of the free-sil-ver or free-trade type. Their latest misfortune comes in the way of a recent announcement showing the individual deposits in the national banks of the country to be the largest on record.

The Republican can not give credit to the rumor that our city council is about to rush through a waterworks contract without having taken proper measures to secure it at the lowest available prices.' People who are circulating this report, say that some of our councilmen take the view that we must pay some $5,000 or $6,000 more than a plant is worth, including a reasonable profit for putting it in, because our security is not “gilt edged.” It is incredible that any of our city officials can seriously think of acting upon any such assumption as this. Our city IS “gilt edged” security’ and there is no reason on earth why we should pay more for a waterworks plant than it is worth. The town of Remington, with not more than one quarter the assessed wealth of Rensselaer, and in proportion much more deeply in debt, was able to buy a $11,200 waterworks system without paying anything extra for lack of “gilt edged” security, and so can Rensselaer. The Remington town board went to work in a business like way and found out just what they wanted in the line of waterworks. Then had their plans and specifications prepared, and then, still in a business like way, they advertised for bids and got the work done at a fair price. If Remington with a quarter million assessment could get an SII,OOO plant without extra profits for “gilt edged” security, then surely Rensselaer, with over a million assessment can get a $20,000 or $25,000 plant, also, without extra profits on account of security. And all that is needed to secure such a plant, without such improper profits is to have the proper plans and specifications made and then thoroughly advertise the work and let it to the lowest responsible bidder.

My little boy, when two years of age, was taken very ill with bloody flux. I was advised to use Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and luckily procured part of a bottle. I carefully read the directions and gave it accordingly. He was very low,’but slowly and surely he began to improve, gradually recovered, and is now as stout and strong as ever. I feel sure it saved his life. I never can praise the Remedy half its worth. lam sorry every one in the world does not know how good it is, as Ido Mrs. Lina 8Hinton, Grahamsville, Marion, Co., Florida. For sale by F. B. Meyer.

Meyer. “PURGATORIAL PILLS.” The druggist would hardly smile if you ask for “purgatorial pills,” there are many of them, but he would probably recommend a pill that did not sicken or gripe; a sugar coated pill, gentle in action, and sure in effect; they are Carter’s Cascara Pills.

YOUR BOY WONT LIVE A MONTH. So. Mr. Gilman Brown, of 34 Mill St., South Gardner, Mass., was told by the doctors. His son had Lung trouble, following Typhoid Malaria, and he spent three hundred and seventy-five dollars with doctors, who finally gave him up, saying: “Your boy won’t live a month.” He tried Dr. King’s New. Discovery and a few bottles restored him to health and enabled him to go to work a perfectly well man. He says he owes his present good health to use of Dr. King’s New Discovery, and knows it to be the best in the wo'f d for Lung trouble. Trial Bottles F. B. Meyers.

Since 1878 there have been nine epidemics of dysentery in different parts of the country in which Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was used with perfect success. Dysentery, when epidemic, is almost as severe and dangerous as Asiatic cholera. Heretofore the best efforts of the most skilled physicians have failed to check its ravages, this remedy, however, has cured the most malignant cases, both of children and adults, and under the most trying conditions, which proves it to be the best medicine in the world for bowel complaints. For sale by F. B. Meyer. THE SILVER CRAZE. Silver has greatly depreciated in commercial values, and may be found impracticable for money purposes, but thousands suffering from dyspepsia, indigestion and constipation have found that 50c or SI in silver invested in Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is woith its weight in gold.
