But another week and a half till elec-
tion day. Congressmen are elected
this year and it is therefore of as much
importance as a national election. It
has this added importance. It will be
a rejection or a ratification of the mag-
lliticentvictory of 1896. By this elec-
tion the opposition will guageits future
course. This will be settled by the
actual result of the election and stay-
at-home votes will not be taken into
consideration. Congressmen should
be elected this year who are not only
in favor of the fruits of the election of
1896 and the giving of validity of law
to the gold standard so our currency
may have permanancy, but also in sym-
pathy with tile administration in its
efforts to secure the fruits of the war
with Spain. Every voter who believes
in the administration in its efforts to
secure the fruits of the war with Spain,
every voter who believes in the admin-
istrationof President McKinley, should
be at the poIls election day and by his
vote aid in sending to the national con-

After this week it won't be quite so
much politics. See that you do your
duty now that you may enjoy the
change.

of the other Congressional districts, it

There should be no "slump" in the

trary let it be an index of the growth
of the community as creditable as the
past year's record of improvements,
both public and private.
The state Labor Commission reports
an increase of 4 per cent, over 1896 in
the number of persons employed in the
state; an increase in money paid for
wages of 6 per cent. The statement is
based conservatively upon reliable re-
ports and is a case of figures that can-
not lie.
it is to be deeply regretted that the
last days of such a brilliant success as
the Trans-Mississippi exposition has
scored should be tainted by any sus-
picion of dishonest management in
any way; and to be hoped that there
will prove to have been no real founda-
tion for the rumors regarding the
awards.
The Inter Ocean's bicycle globe
girdlers, the Mcllraths, have started
from New York upon the last laps' run
of their remarkable trip. They are ex-
pected to arrive at their journeys' end
in Chicago, Sunday November 20th. It
will undoubtedly be one of the big
days of quite a series for the World's
Fair city this fall.
The fight of the Methodist layman
for equal representation in the general
conference--executive body--of their
church is announced as practically
won. The decided majority in favor of
this common sense principle is a most
creditable reflection upon all concern-
ed, and will in nowise retard the re-
markable growth and work of Method-
ism.

The Democratic and Populist
srs in Iowa are keeping q,
silver question. The manner in which
influential men repudiated the platform
and deserted the party following the
Marshalltown convention convinced
them that to make the silve~
issue of the campaign wouldbet~
the greater portion of their followers
into the Republican party. An attempt
was made to stay the tide by hauling
the "sick soldier" issueto the front, but
the stampede continued and is still go-
ing on. The list of men whohavepub-
licly renounced Democracy within the
last six weeks would almost fill a col-
umn, and their are thousands of other
Democrats who are saying nothing but
will go to the polls and.cast their votes
for a continuation ot present good
times. But let us see whether or not
free silver is not an issue in tim present
fight. Democratic conventions have
been held in thirty,nine states, and
thirty-two of the thirty-nine declared
for free silver

dodged the issue. Read the following
