United Preu.
Washington, Feb. s.—Two saw mills
are working night and day at the capi
tal, putting out planks for party plat-
I forms.
You can hear the steady buzz of the
circulars’ teeth as they rip through logs
, big and small, and. every once in a
while, you can hear a loud screech as
one of the same strikes a hard knot, or
। you can feel the jar that results from
< an unusually large log striking the floor
after it fails to make the proper con
nections with the machine that is con
veying it to the party workshop.
Like as not the same log is seized up
on by workmen in the employ of the
other gang, and by a little more judic
ious manipulation, a little tighter grip,
<r a more clever twist of the wrist on
the part of the foreman, it is diverted
into the other chute and is forthwith
converted into slabs, boards, shingles or
@ @ -1 NATURE’S CURE
FOR RHEUMATISM
adiseaso so painful as Rheumatism, medicines containing opiates
and nerve-quieting drugs are often used. Such treatment is dangerous not
only because it frequently causes the suSerer to become addicted to the
drug habit, but medicines of this nature are always Injurious to the system.
Rheumatism is a disease of the blood, and its cure depends entirely upon a
thorough purification of the circulation. As long as the blood remains
saturated with uric acid, an inflammatory condition of the nerves, muscles
and tendons of the body will exist, and the pains, aches, soreness, end hot,
feverish flesh of Rheumatism vHll continue. The one safe and sure c. re for
Rheumatism is 3. S. S. It is nature’s remedy for this disease, made entirely
of the healing, cleansing juices and extracts of roots, herbs and barks from
the natural forests. S. S. S. does not contain anything that is in the slightest
way injurious to the system. It is absolutely and purely vegetable* and
free from opiates or sedatives of any kind. S. S. 8. cures Rheumatism by
removing the uric acid from the circulation, it makes the blood pure, rich
and heaalthy so that instead of depositing sharp, uratic impurities into the
muscles, nerves, joints and bones, it nourishes every portion of the body
with natural, healthful properties. Book on Rheumatism and any medical
•'"'dee free to all who write and request it.

SUNDAY,
more fancy piece* of timber for party *
purposes.
The mill hands in each gang are con- I
fidcut that by the time the whistle 1
blows for work to be knocked off in I
the late spring or early summer, they |
will have enough timber sawed, crated ,
aud loaded on the cars to take them '
safely over the most critical day cf j
the year—the Tuesday after the first |
Alon-lay in November.
The sawmills are the two houses of
congress, and the rival gangs are the
republican and democratic organiza
tions. Everything that comes up. these
days, is grist for their purpole, aud it
is a pretty poor piece of wood that can
। not Ite twisted into some apparent good
for the party. Whether the piece* they
i are cutting out will look as good to
i the voters of their districts, of course,
, remains to be seen, and onlv time can
1 tell.
The Party Slogans.
As things look today, the slogans of
the two parties next summer will be as
follows: •
Democratic War Cries.

wash.
Cannonism. Aldrichism.
Broken repubTVan promises.

gation.
' Stand by the Roosevelt-Taft policies.
The tariff is all right—See how well
you are doing.
With all these juicy subjects at their
disposal the spellbinders and keynoters
( of the two parties wil) start out early
: in the summer and keep up the pyro
-1 technical display of oratory until the
i day before election.
j Every member of congress must make
.his race for re-election, if he wishes to
!.ome back to the house of representa
tives, and in many states the summer's
| campaign for members of the legisla
; hire will have a very important bearing
| on the next senatorial race. Each party
will bend its energies toward proving
to the voters that they saved the cotuy
try in congress this winter and accord
ing as the people at home believe or
disbelieve these assertions, the uncer
! tain feline of party control will jump.
“Doubtful” Zone Grows.
Of course in the solid south, the solid
’ north, and certain other sections of the
country where the voters return the
same party to power year after year,
the result will not be affected by any
action congress takes on anv matter tin
j der the sun. But the doubtful zdne,
! wherein the real battles are waged is
I growing larger and larger every year
and therefore the spellbinders of each
party find more work to do each time
the campaigns are opened.
“If the democrats do not win this
star they never will,” asserts Represen
tativo Champ Clark, the democratic
minority leader of the house. “We’v*
wmBR:
got so many good things to work on
lii.it we scarcely know where to begin."’
He then goes on to cite the fact that
people of the whole country are disap
pointed with the tariff; the cost of liv
ing continues to climb in spite of all
the feeble efforts of the republican
law makers to stop it; trusts aud mon
opolies are still in control of all the
good things of the land; Cannon and
Aldrich crack their whips in congress
and the republican members and sena
tors dance; the spastn of economy Inau
gurated by President Taft in the execu
tive branch of the government is only a
sham, for huge deficiency-bills will be
brought in to offset the parings of the
estimates by the members of the cabr
inet; the republican party although
elected to power on a solemn oath-bound
platform, has ignored nearly every
plank on which it ran; and; last but not
least, the Ballinger-Pinchot scandal,
which has grown more offensive with
every new development, proves that, the
party is rotten in the very top circle of
its most high council, so much so in
tact, that a very large portion of the G.
O. P. is on the point of splitting away
from the organization rather than bo
longer identified publicly with such a
political outfit. “You must remember
that party platforms are made to run
on,” commented Champ Clark. “There
fore you needn’t be surprised that the
republicans have not kept theirs. They
never do. After running on tAeir plat
forms and getting safely in, they don’t
pretend to stand on their platforms any
longer—they stand on their dignity and
hold on to the jobs. Wait until the
country returns its verdict on the Bal
linger-Pinchot fiasco. If we don’t have
a fair, square, open-and-above-board,
searching investigation of that scandal,
the republican party will get a message
at the polls which will make it about
EIGHTY YEARS OLD
ENJOYS GOOD HEALTH
Salt Lake City Utah.—Mrs. J.
H. McNeal after attaining the ripe
old age of four score years, writes the
following letter for the benefit of the
younger generations. “I am eighty
rears old and thank Ballard’s Hore
hound Syrup for having cured me of
coughs, colas and similar diseases.
We are all exposed at times to
coughs, colds, bronchitis and other
pulmonary diseases and should be
glad to know the best remedy.
Ballard's Horehound Syrnp can be
given to babies as well as adults.

that buy the larger bottles, which
are cheaper in proportion.”

Pinchot Will Cost Votes.
“It's all poppycock, this claim of the
republicans that they are ‘standing by
the Roosevelt policies,’ ” said Represen
tative Bartlett of Georgia. “Just to
prove how well they are carrying out
his policies, their president fires out
the man of all men who represents these
policies best—Gifford Pinehot. That
one act of Taft will cost his parry
enough votes this fall to give us tbe
control of the house of representa
tives.”
Ju reply to the charge that the party
; has not made good on its platform
I promises, the republicans will say that
they have carried out some of them and
will carry out the others as soon as they
have time. Postal savings banks are an
assured thing, if not at this session, ter.
tainly at the next.
The strongest argument in the repub
lican list will naturally be “good
times.” If business is booming next
summer, and the country generally pros
perous, they will demand of the people
a continuance of republican control.
“Let well enough alone,!’ they will
cry, “Don’t turn the business of the
country over to untried servants while
your affairs are flourishing. It would
be the height of folly as Well as of in
gratitude to throw out tried and trusted
managers when the whole business fab
ric of the country is literally booming
good times.” Thon, too, the spellbind
ers will spring the magic, name of
Roosevent at 'every opportunity. The
great ex-president himself will be back
from Africa by the time the campaign
opens, and if he says a word that, can
be construed as an endorsement of tee
Taft administration, it will be the best
kind of meat for the keynoters. If Col.
Roosevelt will enter personally into the
campaign and make speeches endorsing
tbe republican congress that is nosv in
onr midst, or of praise for the manner
in which Taft has handled the reins cf
government since he took them up,
March 4, last, that action will be the
! biggest asset that party could ask. In
fact, all political judges agree that it
| would more than counteract a whole
j trainload of democratic attacks and
i democratic allegations of republican
I shortcomings.
“Between us boys,” remarked a well
'known republican congressman, “Roose-
I velt is going to come pretty near to die-
I taring just what sort of a campaign
we'll have next summer. If he eomes
i out in the open for Taft, good aud
(strong—as we think he will—there’ll be
(nothing to it. It will be a republican
I landslide. If Jie helps us out in the
I doubtful districts with a few letters,
; we'll be all right.”
j “But if he doesn’t!” he wa*
। asked. . .
i “If ho doesn’t,” replied the con
gressman. with a sickly sort of (miM.
“well, if he doesn’t. I'll be sorry for
some bf the mean things I've said about
Champ Clark, for he'll stand a pretty
good chance of "being the next speaker

Washington D. C., Feb. s.—Senator
Depew' told a little story on himself

state,” said Depew, “I asked him if

aud Mr. Root picked up a paper front

“Well, I kept going up to see Root
