INDEPENDENCE LEAGUE ALONE Will Name lt8 Own Candidates for Presidency and Offices of Various States?Editor Declare* Strength Shown Will Surprise Old Parties. NEW YORK. March 7?The author? itative announcement by William It Hearst that the National lndepcnd onco League, of which he Is the con? trolling spirit, will not. In the ap? proaching presidential battle support Rooaovclt, William J. Bryan, or Oov Johnson, of Minnesota, but is to go it alone, nominating Its own presi? dential ticket, was food for political gossip hereabouts today. Tbc announcement was interpreted to moan that Mr. Hearst's league will not support any candidate to l>o nain ed by the Republicans at Chicago or any candidate to bo nnnted by the Democrats at Denver. In addition to naming Us own presidential ticket. It is understood the Independence Leagues of the different states are to name state tickets as well. Will Name State Tickets. Mr. Hearst's National Independence league, according to the announce? ment made February 22. Is known a^ the National Party, and Is to have Its national convention nftor the Re? publicans and the Democrats have adjourned. Mr. Hearst made this ad ditlonal announcement: "The Independence party Is going to nominate Its own candidate for President, nnd Is going to vote for him with a strength and a heartiness of numbers that Is likely to be a reve? lation to the older nnd sadder politi? cal organizations. If it does not elect Its candidates in this election It Is going to 'lay tho solid foundation for doing so In the next." Pleasing to Republicans. The Republicans who discussed Mr. Hearst's announcement wcro in? clined to believe that, with a candi? date of the Denver convention in tho field and the Natlonnl party's candi date in tho field, the Republican can dldate to be named at Chicago would bo mighty sure of election. The Democrats who upoko of (Mr, Hearst's announcement Bald that it would be n very wlso man indeed who at this stage of the game could come within gunshot of guessing the vote that Mr. Hearst's candidate for the presidency -would poll In November. NEW YORK'S THUGS. THInk Nothing of Taking Human Lifej for a Few Dollars. The thugs of tho river front have made good Commissioner Dlngham's startling words. No longer ago than Monday, a man who had received $6 In payment for some work was fol? lowed by assassins, who were aware of the exact amount of his stake, nnd was foully murdered for the same. When human life is hold at so low] a valuation one must conclude that I tho terrors of the death penalty for| murder have vanished. ? It ought to be Impossible for such debased specimens of the human race lb exist in New York. They ought to be hunted down, as scorpions and Gila monsters are sought In our Iron? ical deserts, and killed at sight. Stiels j hybrids should not he allowed to en? cumber the eurth. Tho electric chair] should ? bo worked overtime, if neces? sary, to rid the world of such mon-| sters. Assassin's who will commit murder for any sum of money, large or small, should be discovered In advance of tho commission of such crimes. This remark does' not apply to professional burglars. They do not enter upon their nightly labors with specific in? tent to do murder. They are well| satisfied to get away with a reasona? ble amount of plunder. Only when cornered do they shoot to kill. Not long ago we dwelt upon tho folly of grappling with a midnight marauder. A thousand times better thnt ho help himself than that you or I force hint to the alternative of capture nnd a long term In prison or the taking of our lives. Again, remember this. If y"ou see a burglar before ho enters your home, get your gun and wait. The Instant he raises a window or unlocks a door to enter, shoot to kill. Don't allow your conscience to trouble you there? after any more than you would per? mit it to ilo had you alain a rattle? snake or a ferocious L?ast. All respectable people In New York ought to nnn.?Julius Chambers, In the Drocklyn Eagle. Could See Through Flannel. It was in a small town in the sunny South. A lyceum entertainment was' hilled for tho evening, and as a ma? gician and sleight-of-hand performer was advertised as one of the princi? pal features, an old colored lady pre? sented .herself at the door of the local |opora houso early, insisted on a neat In the front row of the part reserved j for colored folk, and got it, says the I Lyc?trmltc, When the magician appeared he first plnced a piece of red flannel over newspaper and read the' news through tho flannel.

A leading health Journal, in an Bworlng tho Question, "What is the best proscription to clean and purify the blood," prints In a rccont Issue the following: Fluid Extract of Dan? delion one-half ounce, Compound Knrgon one ounce, Compound Syrup Sarsaparllla throo ounces. shake well and use in teas)>oonful doses after each meal and ai bedtime, It cleans the blood or all Impuri? ties nnd nourishes the ldtxid. In just n few days the skin begins to clear of sores, bolls and pimples, it puts vigor and energy Into run-down, de? bilitated men and women. For many years Sarsaparllla alone has boon considered a good bloojl metflrtno. But while It built up and made- now blood, the impurities remained with? in nnd the good accomplished was only temporary. Sarsaparllla, how? ever, when used in eomblnatlon with Compound Knrgon and Extract Dan? delion workB wonders. This combi? nation puts the kidneys to work to filter nnd aift out the waste matter, uric acid and other Impurities that cause disease. It makes now 'blood nnd relieves rheumatism and lame back and blnddor troubles. This prescription is better than the usual patent medicines, which are in the moat pnrt alcoholic concoctions. Tho Ingredients coat but little and are easily mixed at home. Every man and woman here shohld mnke nome up and try it If they feel their sys? tem requires a good blood medicine and tonic. -neighbor assured her, telling her the magician wouldn't hurt her.

Thla Will be Result of Grand Jury Investigation In Warren. FRONT ROYAL. VA.. March 7.?In the grand Jury term of the Circuit Court of Warren, which has jimt otid ed, Judge Thomas W. Harrison came down hard on several distillers of the county who are alleged to have con? ducted their business in a manner contrary to law. The result of the Investigation of the matter by the grand jury will be that no license will fod operating a barroom. Alexander be granted to distillers In thla coun? ty In the future. Out of five distillers In Warren county practically three havo been indicted. One entered a plea of guil? ty and waB heavily fined. John Duke and Ollbert Manuel, distillers, wore indicted on a number of counts, it being alleged thnt they havo boon running their distilleries in much the same way thnt the l-irrooma nro con? ducted. They will be tried at a later date. Oeorge Alexander, the clerk for Mr. Shcnk, another dlstlllci was Indicted entered a plea of gulny, and Judge Harrison Imposed a fine of $4f>0 nnd costs, amounting to $ir>0 more, and In addition sentenced him to serve two mouths in Jail. Tho jail -sentence wag suspended pending his good be? havior. '< Mr. Hearst as a National Figure. Mr. Hearst's denunciation of boy? cotting as criminal and un-American, the studied respect with which re receives tho recent decisions of the Supreme Court and his apparent condemnation of privilege as the right or appanage of any special class have attracted marked and favorable attention throughout the country and are undoubtedly going to prove an important factor at Don vor. Just at proncnt lie Is the only figure In the field to divide discussion with Mr. Bryan, and the interest he inspires, will increase rather than diminish from this time onward. Besides it may be that Mr. Hearst's personal or| moral character being superior to that ; of -Mr. Bryan his association of hlm-l self with ideas of constitutional and conservative import may prove to hove a widespread and far-reaching influence.?New York Sun.
