THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST 8. 1901. "PE-RU-NA A HOUSEHOLD NECESSITY, 1' [SAYS PROF. TALFOURD SMITH, OF GEORGIA.] PROF. TALFOURD SMITH. Professor Talfourd Smith, Principa Siloam High School, Siloani, Ga. ( writes^ "With much pleasure I recommend Pe runa to all who may be suffering with any trouble of the respiratory organs. I have been using it in my family for the past five or six years and find it to be almost a household necessity. Permaa it truly a grand catarrh remsdy and gen eral tonic and will do all that Is claimed for It by the mamutaeturen." —Prof. Talfourd Smith. Catarrh is inflammation of the mucous membrane. It may be in the mucous mem brane lining the eyes or the pelvic organs, throat, stomach, liver, bowels or kidneys. Catarrh is catarrh wherever located. Peruna cures catarrh wherever located. Peruna is an internal remedy; not a local application. LOSS TO PRINTERS Pyle's Decision Will Have Effect of Cutting Down Fees. S. D. "SCAVENGER" TAX LISTS Only One Fee fur Each General De scription and but One Pub lication. Special to The Journal. Huron, S. D., Aug. B.—lf the contention of Attorney General Pyle,. anent the pub lication in each county of the scavenger tax list, 1b good, fifty-odd newspapers in South Dakota are short between $30,000 and $40,000 on what they had figured a few days ago. In addition to this, the clerk and treasurer in several counties have incurred expense and thrown away a lot of valuable time. The scavenger tax law of the last legislative session provided for 1 the publication at this time, in a legal newspaper, in each county, of all taxes on real property delinquent the past several years. Those taxes consti tuted a sum total that is then certified to the clerk of courts and the amount be comes a judgment against the property. Under this law, the treasurer" in each county has prepared a list for publica tion of delinquent taxes for the year 1900 and for each prior year. In this. Beadle county, the printed tax list occupies about twenty printed pages. In Hughes county, of which Pierre is the county seat, the work was too big an undertaking for the printing offices of the capital city, and the matter has been set up outside with type-setting machines. The list is said to have made about 150 printed pages, newspaper size,,and figured as originally planned by the publishers would have cost Hughes county in the neighborhood of $7,000. But now comes the attorney general with an opinion that but one fee may be paid for each general description, for the entire amount of tax due. For instance, lots 1 to 20, block 2, with the tax for the different years, can be assessed but one fee for the publication, and but one fee in printing Judgment. There may be taxes due on ten or fifteen lots, and copy has been furnished the printer showing such delinquency, by years, giving num ber of lot, block, etc. Often one of these descriptions occupies several inches of space in the newspaper, and would re quire much work to copy into the judg ment book. The attorney general is of the opinion that but one fee can be charged for the work instead of each lot each year constituting an entry. Herein was the meat to the whole business. If the opinion of the attorney general is good, the work must be done by the county clerics and newspapers at a loss. The larger the list, the greater the loss. The clerks of courtß and oounty treasur ers and newspaper offices have done a lot of work for which it would now ap pear there must be little or no pay. The opinion of the attorney general, which has set the officers of over fifty counties in the state to scratching their heads, stopped composition in printing offices and put the brakes on printing presses, is as follows; I have your telegram, stating that in your county under the so-called scavenger tax law the treasurer is unable to secure the publica tion of the list at the price mentioned in the Free to Ladies Dne Full-sized $5.00 Package of Dr. Mary Loci's Wonderful Home Treat ment Given Free to Every Lady. tares Every Form of Female Weakness, Dis placements.

We aak no questions or referrn~"~ of »rv i'"-ii Ev?rv Catarrh is a systemic disease, not a local disease. If Peruna will cure catarrh in one place it will cure it in any other place, because Peruna is a systemic rem edy. It reaches the disease through the circulation in each organ. It eradicates the disease by eradicating it from the system. Peruna eradicates catarrh from the system In the same way that the practi cal farmer eradicates weeds from his fields. The sensible farmer does not think of cutting off the top of the weeda to kill them. He pulls them up by the roots. Dr. Hartman, the originator of Peruna, has used this remedy for the last forty years with great success as a specific for catarrh. A free book written by him will be sent to any address. It contains the re sults of his forty years' experience with Peruna, and will be found of great inter est to those afflicted with catarrh of any organ of the body. Mr. F. E. Brackett, Medford, Mass., writes: "I have a bottle of Peruna and Mana lln in use in my house two-thirds of the time. If I take it when feeling a little I indisposed it braces me right up, and j keeps me in such fine condition that I I don't catch cold, and that is life and happiness to one of my business. I am a teamster, and when the membrane of my nose is swollen at night after driv ing in our east winds and fogs, I take a j dose of Peruna on going to bed at night and get up all right in the morning. It also makes the blood circulate, and is sure death to rheumatism."—Mr. F. E. Brackett. If you do not derive prompt and satis factory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his valuable ad vice gratis. Address Dr. Hartman, President of The Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus, Ohio. statute, and asking what the treasurer ehall go in the premises. Section 3 of this law makea it the duty of the county treasurer to cause the notice and list to be published. The same section limits the cost of publication and provides that the county commissioners ehall pay such cost by a warrant drawn on the general fund. My understanding of this ia that it la the limita tion upon the power of the treasurer to con tract for publication at a higher rate than that described in the statute. Under the cir- cumstances that you name, I am of the opin ion that it would be the duty of the treasurer to negotiate with every paper In the county if necessary and try and get the list published at the price given in the statute if possible, but if he finds It is Impossible, then I am of the opinion that it would not be his duty to pay a larger amount than described, but omk the publication entirely, unless he can get it within the price prescribed by the law. I note also the lalter part of your telegram, in which you say you cannot agree with my opinion as published in the State Register in reference to the publication of the notice after judgment, but that in your opinion a second publication of the entire list is necessary. I have not rendered any official opinion upon rhifi question, but merely wrote a letter to a blank house which sent me blanks for ap proval. Upon this question I see no reason, bowever, to change the view expressed in that letter, as this is a purely statutory pro ceeding, so far as the notice is concerned, and inasmuch as it follows the proper notice in which the list is given in full, and the statute does not in terms provide that the list shall be published twice. It seems to me that it was not the intention of the legislature to require a double expense for such publication. This view is also strengthened by the perusal of the law or Xorth Dakota from which this law seems to have been constructed. WISCONSIN LA CROSSE—G W.

Judge of the Supreme Court—S. M. Weaver, lowa Falls. Railroad Commissioner, E. C. Brown, Sheldon. Superintendent of Public Instruction— R. C. Barrett, Osage. From a Staff Correspondent. Cedar Rapids, lowa, Aug. B.—"lt was the greatest fight and the greatest convention we have ever had in lowa," declared a veteran lowa politician yesterday evening, after the nomination of A. B. Cummins for governor. Of course he was a Cummins man. It was a great day for the Cummins people. They named the whole ticket, from start to finish, and made the machine delegates drink the cup of defeat to the dregs. J. \V. Blythe of Burlington and Judge N. M. Hubbard of Cedar Rapids will have very little to say this year. New men are in the saddle, and the old leaders are on the shelf. Their power is broken, for this year, but Cummins will always have them to reckon with. They are only biding their time, and will work twelve months in the jear to undermine him and regain the as cendancy. Dolllver Aided Cummins. Cummins men made the platform, and it indorsed Senators Allison and Dolliver for re-election next winter. Thereby hangs a little story. When Senator Gear died, Gov. Shaw deliberated long before appointing his successor. After consultation with party leaders, he settled on Dolliver as the one man in lowa who could hold the place and prevent the election of Cum mins next winter. Dolliver was then a congressman, and supposed to be, like most of the delegation, an anti-Cummins man. It seems now, however, that Dolli ver and Cummins have a very good under standing. The tenth, Dolliver's district, went almost solidly for Cummins. Dolliver himself kept absolutely out of the fight, but his friends were nearly all for Cum mins. Dolliver will have no opposition next winter for the short term, and Alli son will be returned for the long term. Cummins will probably hold down the gov ernor's chair four years. Allison is an old man, and will probably retire by the end of six years. Cummins will then be ready to step in as Dolliver's colleague. That, I am told, is the generally understood program. The Cummins men won their preliminary skirmish last year, when they nominated Gilbertson for state treasurer and Martin for secretary of state. They were unable to head off Frank Merriam's nomination for auditor, but they declare they will fin ish him next year. They have started a crusade against the old machine, and will not rest content till it is exterminated. Game Fljfht by "Mavlitnr." No one ever fought a forlorn hope to the finish more gamely than the members of that same machine. They battled against Cummins, their natural enemy, In every county in the state. They brought out Trewin to hold the fourth district, Harrlman for the third, Conger in Cum mins' own district, and got John Herriott into the field in Cummins' territory, the ninth district. The southern counties were carried against Cummins without being named for any particular candidate. They must have seen the finish three weeks ago. Cummins had broken into every district. His positive strength was nearly enough to nominate, and he had a second choice strength In every camp established by the adversary. Herriott's candidacy was weak from the start, though Herriott is a popular man, because his delegates were really for Cummins more than for Herriott. In his own county, Guthrie, the convention was all for Her riott as far as appearances went, but for Cummins if he needed them. They told Herriott to name his own delegates to the state convention, but gave him the list to pick from, and they were all Cummins men. It was much the same in other counties of the ninth district. Cummins' manager did not count them in his foot ings of Cummins' strength, but knew he could get them. Under ordinary conditions a candidate with such a long lead would have been conceded the nomination before the con vention met, but the opposition hoped against hope. They made a fight in every county, in many cases hopeless fights, and they claimed everything that was not nailed down. Personal feeling made the leaders desperate and unyielding. They were in counsel all day Tuesday, and though all was dark and doleful in the council chamber, they met friends and newspaper men at the door with a happy smile and assurance that "everything is working nicely." Conldn't Handle Herriott. It was decided to stake everything on the contested delegations. The machine forces were sure to control the credentials committee, and on this test vote would unite all the anti-Cummins strength. To win It would have .much moral effect, be sides depriving Cummins of some thirty votes. This fight might so weld the op position that it could be delivered to one candidate. Anyhow, it was worth try ing. Herriott was the weak spot. His men could not be controlled, and Herriott him self, though a little sore at Cummins, was more naturally in that camp than with the machine. He was pounded all day Tuesday and all night, and withdrew from the race Wednesday morning, with the tacit understanding that he would be named for second place. There was nothing left for the machine people to do but hoist their colors and die fighting. They went into it heroical ly. They carried the credentials commit tee, and took the contests on the floor of the convention. The Cummins people won, 845 to 767, and the convention un derstood that the fight waa over. On the ballot for governor, which quickly fol lowed, the machine Btrength was neatly divided between Trewin and Harriman, giving each a respectable showing, but Cummins had votes to spare over all. Cummins did not get quite all the votes that were with him on the report of the credentials committee, but the 28 votes from the contested counties more than made up the loss, giving him 860. Harrl- Double Murder at Canadian Soo Special to The Journal. Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., Aug. B.—A double tragedy was enacted in a Canadian Soo home at 5 o'clock yesterday aftertioon, when Frederick Schultz shot his wife and 12-year old stepdaughter, In a drunken fit of jealousy. His wife ided almost instantly and the girl, who was shot through the breast, cannot live. Schultz had been drinking on this side of the river, and on going home, had some words with his wife, during which he worked himself into a frenzy. He se cured his Revolver and fired at his wife. The daughter was clinging convulsively to her mother's neck, and received one of the bullets. The murderer, after emptying the revolver of all but one shot, turned it on himself, but did not inflict an injury. A man and Itwo women were in the house at the time, but were terrorized at the point of a revolver by Schultz, who re mained there for half an hour after the tragedy and then made his escape. No trace of him has yet been found. Lake Builders Make a Pacific Steamer Ban Francisco, Aug. B.—A large lumber firm in this city has awarded a contract to a shipbuilding firm of Toledo, Ohio, for a steel steamer for the Pacific coast lumber trade. This contract marks an important departure, as this is said to be the first time a vessel for this coast has been, ordered from « shipbuilder of the lakes.

Then the Cummins men celebrated. They waved a Cummins banner over Cnairman Byers' head, stood on chairs and yelled for fifteen minutes. A committee was sent out to bring the nominee in, and he arrived while the ballot for lieutenant governor was in progress. This time it was an ovation, aad when a few minutes later he rose to make his speech of ac ceptance, the vast audience fairly threw themselves at him. His address was well timed, brief, and apt, not so much in what he said as the way he said it. He spoke with no tone of triumph, but of concilia tion, and said his highest hope was to win a §mall part of the confidence and devotion that had been so well bestowed on his rivals. The anti-Cummins men tried hard to name Brandt for lieutenant governor and punish Herriott, but the Cummins com bination voted for him in an almost solid block on the second ballot, and the ticket will read Cummins and Herriott. Judge Weaver, the Cummiuß candidate for su preme judge, and Ed. C. Brown, Cum mins candidate for railroad commissioner, went through on the first ballot with equal ease. Way Feels Good. Thomas A. Way of Britt, manager of the Cummins campaign, was one of the hap piest men in Cedar Rapids last night. He has devoted almost his entire time for six months to the campaign, and it wa3 really his first venture in state politics, though he helped in the Gilbertson cam paign last year. Mr. Way is now a Min neapolis business man, being a member of the firm of Lee, Way & Smith, which re cently moved to Minneapolis and took offices in the Corn Exchange. They are a commission house, and Mr. Way will make frequent visits to Minneapolis from now on. His brother, S. X. Way of Wes ley, Kossuth county, is another new man who made a name for himself this sum mer. He handled Cummins' forces in the county, where the bitterest contest of the year was waged. It lasted three months, and cost the two sides at least $15,000. Mr. Way won, and was yesterday elected as the tenth district member of the state central committee. The state committee is, on the face of things, six to five anti-Cummins, but therte are rumors of a deal by which R. W. Clayton, of Oskaloosa, the sixth dis trict member, is to come into the Cum mins camp. He has been with the ma chine, but was re-elected yesterday with the aid of Cummins votes, and the same rumor has it that he will head the state committee. The chairman, whoever he is, will be a Cummins man. All the Blk (ions There. Eight of lowa's eleven congressmen were delegates on the floor of the con vention. Henderson and Hull were out of the country, and Cousins, the other man, was a "distinguished guest." So were both senators. There is no state in the union where the congressmen keep in closer touch with the state organiza tion thaji in lowa. They always attend state conventions, and, as a rule, mix in all the fights. Their interference is often resented, and it is a general com plaint that the federal office holders are absolutely at the disposal of the ma chine. The Cummins people are quite bitter against some of the delegation, especially Hedge, Lacey, Hull and Hep burn. Rumple, of the second; Haugen, of the fourth, and Thomas, of the eleventh district, were Cummins delegates. Factional Fig-lit ing Certain. There will be bitter factional fighting in lowa for years to come. Cummins himself does not desire it. He is not particularly anxious to make up with a few of the bosses, but wants to see the party workers united. It will be a hard matter to bring about harmony this year, and Cummins may lose some republican votes. Some of the democrats declare that they i are going to take advantage of the split ; and elect a governor. They propose to I | nominate Cato Sells and get the quiet jsupport of the old republican machine, j The trouble with this program is that Cummins is immensely,popular with dem orats. Sevei'al democratic papers have been supporting him for the nomination and will stand by him through the cam paign, notably the Dcs Moines Leader. Cummins men claim that in some coun ties their candidate will get aimost the solid democratic vote. Cedar Rapids made an excellent record in entertaining the convention. Plenty of room provided for all comers, and the pretty auditorium on the shores of the Cedar river was almost an ideal place for holding the convention except that many visitors could not get In the gallery. Charles E. Bond, of Minneapolis, a vet eran in Minnesota politics, came down from Mason City to 6ee how they do things in lowa. He says the lowa brand of poli ticc is not much different from the Minne sota article. The anti-Cummins people slipped up on the permanent organization. The sixth district, which they carried for the creden tials committee, elected a Cummins man on organization, and the committee put Former Speaker rf, W. Byers in as per manent chairman. He gave excellent sat isfaction. The gallery was a regular bear garden.and the noise delayed convention business, but Byera controlled the hall when such a thing was possible. How the Ballot* Stood. The first ballot far lieutenant governor resulted: Herriott, 778; Brandt, 664%; Harriman, 12^; Klemme, 178. The sec ond and decisive one stood: Herriott, 852; I Brandt, 783; Klemme, 6. Total number of delegates, 1,641. Necessary to choice, 821. The convention next proceeded to the nomination for judge of the supreme court, the first ballot resulting as follows: Weav er, 800; Towner, 429; Dewey, 284; Bishop, 128. The second ballot resulted: Weaver, 1,029; Towner, 543; Dewey*, 50; Bishop, 9. The first ballot for railroad commission er resulted Brown, 855; Mawrey, 787. Superintendent Barrett was nominated by acclamation. —C. B. Cheney. DECLARATION OP PRINCIPLES Platform on Which the Coming Can vass Will Be Made. Cedar Rapids, lowa, Aug.

The results of growing wealth and of a wise financial policy are seen in the reduction of Internal rates and the expan sion of industry, while the demand for labor In every field is imperative and the only workers out of employment are those seeking to better their condition. Work of Congress Approved. That we view with satisfaction and ap proval the work of the fifty-sixth congress, its action for the reduction of taxation and its constructive legislation giving effect to the party declarations of 1896 and 1900. We would emphasize our indorsement of - its action in more firmly establishing: our money system I upon a gold basis and in providing for civil government in Porto Rico and the Philip pines and for the relinqulshnient of our au | thority in Cuba. The policy of this govern i ment toward these islands has followed in evitably upon our expulsion of the authority lof Spain. It has been dictated by the condl- I tions present, has been consistent with the spirit and within the provisions of the con | Btitution and the paramount consideration I has been to secure the lasting welfare of these people whose fortunes and destinies i have become in large degree dependent upon us. The fact that our authority there is the result of a war waged not for our aggrandize ment but in the name of humanity must for i ever govern and inspire our relations to ! them. i That we are earnestly opposed to all legis lation designed to accomplish the disfran chisement of citizens upon lines of race, color or station of life and condemn the measures adopted by the democratic party iv certain states of the union to accomplish that end. Good Word for Reciprocity. That we stand by the historic policy of the 1 republican party in giving protection to home industries and point for its ample vindication to the extraordinary rapidity with which our i national resources have been developed and i our industrial and financial independence *c i cured. We favor such changes in the tariff i lrom time to time as become advisable ! through the progress of our industries and their changing relations to the commerce of the world, we Indorse the policy of reci procity as the natural complement of protec tion, and urge Its development as necessary to the development of our highest commercial possibilities. That we assert the sovereignty of the peo ple over all corporations and aggregations of capital and the right residing in the yeo ■ pie to enforce such regulations, restrictions I or prohibitions upon corporate management I as will protect the Individual and society from j abuse of the power which great combinations : of capital wield. We favor such amendment I to the interstate commerce act as will more fully carry out its prohibition by discrimina tions in rate making and any modification of the tariff schedules that may be required to prevent their affording shelter to monopoly. That the republican party will seek faith fully to consult the interests of all the people, to develop the resources of this country for the common welfare, to levy the necessary taxation without bias or favor, and to secure that Just recognition of the rights of every individual under which all find security and prosperity together. Pride in Home Men. That we voice the pride of lowa in the prestige won for the state by its senators and representatives Jh congress. The char acter of its delegation, the important positions held upon the standing committees, the long and distinguished careers of the elder mem bers, have acquired for the state an in fluence in the legislation of the country great ly to be prized. We take special prld? in the elevation of an lowa member to the post ot speaker of the house of representatives and the discharge of duties of that high office by David B. Henderson to the satisfaction of the whole country. We hold in highest esteem the ability, services and influence of our distinguished senators. William B. Alli son and Jonathan P. Dolliver, Indorse the records they have made, and heartily favor their re-election at the hands of the general assembly to be chosen this fall. We indorse with pride the administration of affairs of lowa during forty years of almost uninterrupted republican rule. It Is a record of capable and faithful management which will bear comparison with the government of any other state. We particularly com mend and Indorse the administration of Gov ernor Shaw. It h&s been eminently practical and successful, while his discussion before the people of the great questions in national politics, has made him Justly a leader of national influence and renown. He will leave the executive chair having reflected honor upon the state and bearing the confidence and regard of its people. 913.00 to Buffalo Pan-American andi Return, $13.00.
