The New York World, Democratic, points out that In 1800 and 1891 the Democrats carried Connecticut, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maryland, Michigan, New York, New Jersey, Rhode Island and Wisconsin, among the northern states, and that In Jthls and the last one the Democrats have lost all of these except Maryland. In addition to this, Bryan has lost since 18flO the states of Kansas, South Dakota, Washington and Wyoming that were carried by the luslonlsts. In view of these things It wants to know how he can hope to be elected In 1000.

The Detroit News has It that Secretary of State StenriiB IHIH concluded to pull out as a gubernatorial candidate, being Inclined to bellcvctlmt he would not have the support of the McMillan wing of the party by reason of the action of Ferry and Bliss in announcing that they are In the race for tho nomination. Mr. Steams would make a strong pull for It if lie kept after the nomination. He stands better with the Republicans in thlH part of the state than either Ferry or Bliss, and could get the bulk of the upper peninsula delegation In the convention as ngainst either of these If he remained in the Held. But it is not likely that he would care to go into a Hcminhlc for the nomination, as he luis biiHinosH affairs of Hiich magnitude on lilshaiiils that he cares little for politics Have a means of gratifying 11,11 honorable ambition.

IKOII PHOT KCTI on oar DKEII. A number of sportsmen of Mar- quetto and Dickinson counties have framed petitions for a reconstruction of the game laws so far as they relate to the protection of deer, and will present the same to the legislature at its next session. Among tho proposed amendments it is asked that the number of deer which any one hunter may kill be reduced to two and that tho sale of vcnslon be prohibited; that is one of the petitions asks this, while others ask something else. It seems to the TIAIIOS that the sportsmen of the above mentioned counties have gone at this matter In the wrong way. only are their petitions not uniform, as they should 1)0, but they have entirely ignored the balance of the upper peninsula.

AVe have no fault to 11 ml with any of tho proposed amendments, but If any changes are to bo made in the laws regulating the limiting of doer, we think that every sportsman in tho upper peninsula who so desires should be given an opportunity of expressing his opinion on the matter. If the hunters of Mnrquctto and Dickinson counties are desirous of passing amendments to the game laws which will afford better protection to the deer and tend to more effectually exclude tho pot hunter (and we believe they are) let them eall a meeting at some centrally located point, and invite the sportsmen of every county In tho upper peninsula to send delegates thereto, and there form a set of game law amendments In which all will have a voice, directly or by representation. There is no question but what a law or amendments drawn up In such a manner could be easily passed, and the result would be much more satisfactory to all concerned. THE GOVEHNOKSIIir. Menoniiiiee Herald: Hon.

Dexter M. Ferry of Detroit, says he will accept the Republican nomination for governor If tendered him by tho next state convention. Mr. Ferry has been chairman of tho Republican Btate committee for years, is an old, able and well known citizen of Michigan and would make a lirst-class chief executive. Portland Observer: Dexter M.

Ferry of Detroit, is a candidate for governor on the Republican ticket. Mr. Ferry is the well known seedmau and if ho has as good luck with political seeds as he has had with vegetable seeds he will grow a big crop of delegates. Houghton Mining Gazette: Detroit ever was a modest town, and is apparently getting in line to coutluut to hold the banner forthateharacter Istie as expressed in tilings political It Is reported that the Republicans of the town have practically decided that Hon. D.

M. Ferry Is the proper man to head 'the state Eepubllcan Jcket. While no one will question Mr. Ferry's fitness for the position, 'or there can be no question, there is quite a large section of the state of Michigan that lies outsldethe boundaries of the city of Detroit, and It may be altogether possible that the 'ecllng will arise that the gubernatorial plum should be passed around. Detroit has one of the United States sonatorships as a permanent thing and has had the governorship often enough so that she ought to be satisfied fora time.

Alpena News: Col. A. T. Bliss, whom the Republicans of Saginaw county are bringing forward as a candidate for nomination for governor, was a candidate for the same office three years ago. His friends claim a much following for liim this year than at that time.

Col. Bliss has consented to permit the xise of his name in this connection, and the probabilities are that a good fight will be put up by him and his friends. Charlotte Republican: The name of Dexter M. Ferry, tho well known seedsman and capitalist, Is the latest suggestion as to the Republican nomination for governor. Mr.

Ferry Is an excellent gentleman and would make a model officer In the executive office, but there are others, and It Is pretty early yet to decide who would be the most valuable candidate. Marine City Reporter: It is evidently manifest by the tenor of state politics that Dexter M. Ferry cannot be elected 11 he Is nominated for governor by the Republican party. Qulncy Herald: Dexter M. Ferry of Detroit has formally announced that he Is in the hands of his friends as a candidate for governor.

Mr. Ferry conducted the Republican campaign as chairman of the state central committee during the campaign of 1896, Is a careful, conservative man, and would make a strong candidate and a good man for the place. Houghton Mining Gazette: Incase It can bo safely taken for granted that Gov. Plngrco is secure from the possibility of again being struck by gubernatorial lightning, it must be admitted that he is tryinghis best to place a candidate on whom he can bank, high on the ridge pole, and consequently likely in that exposed position to be struck by nny passing bolt. The governor has not a great many axes to grind, but lie has one weapon that Is dearer than all the rest equalization of taxes.

To this end Mr. Pingree indorses the candidacy of Milo D. Campbell for the governorship. Mr. Campbell is a member of theft-late tax commission and an ardent iulmirci of the governor most of his ideas.

This makes it safe to assume that If the upper peninsula, cannot Induce GOT. PJngrec to the run next year, it. can at least depend on having Milo 1). to fall back on. A SURK CURE FOR CROUP.

Twenty-live Years' Constant Use Without a Failure. The first Indication of croup is nrHonesH, and in a child subject to that disease it may be taken as a sure sign of the approach of an attack. Following this hoarseness is a peculiar rough cough. If Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is given as soon as the child becomes hoarse, 01 even after tho cronpy cough appears, It will prevent tho attack. It is used in many thousands of homes in this broad land and never dissapoints the anxious mother.

AVe have yet to learn of a single instant in which it has not proved effectual. No other preparation can show such a years' constant use without a failure. For sale by M. F. McCubc Co.

ABOUT SMALLPOX. It Should bo Reported and Restricted Ten Cases in Michigan. Undoubtedly small-pox in a mild form, but unmistakable, is reported in ten places In Michigan. When the cold season arrives It is to be expected that the disease may bo more dangerous, and, unless greater care Is taken, more widespread. In order to prevent an epidemic of small-pox in this State, the Secretary of the State Board of Health urges that all citizens and physicians cooperate with loca health authorities in acting promptly when they have reason to believe that a case under their observation is or may be sin all-pox.

The pro tectlon of the public health Is best served when physicians and citizens give to the public health the benefit of any doubt which they may enter tain as to whether a given case is or is not small-pox. It is hoped that all suspicious cases, including those apparently chickenpox, will be immediately reported bj house-holders and physicians to the local health authorities, and by them to the State Board of.Health and that the secretary of tho State Board of Health may be kept us the law provided, "constantly informed" of the facts in each outbreak. In all localities where the disease appears, all exposed should be im mediately vaccinated, re-vaccinated II not vaccinated within the past five years, their clothing disinfected, and should be kept under surveillance until the period of incubation Is passed 14 days. General vaccination should be publicly recommended by the local health officers. Spain's Greatest Need.

The lecture by Gen. John B. Gordon on "The Last Days of The Confederacy" at the Armory last Saturday evening was a fitting introduction to the series of entertainments to be given by the Star Course this winter. Every one of the vast audience pronounce it one of the best lectures ever delivered in the city, and the G. A.

R. boys who were in attendance by special invitation of the speaker, are enthusiastic over the vivid descriptions of some of the thrilling events of the '60's. Gen. Gordon uses his lecture as missionary material to evermore firmly cement the ties that bind the North and South, and to obliterate the last vestige of sectional differences, which In the '60's separated enemies where now only friends remain. His address Is an eloquent appeal to the loyalty of a united people.

It is a kaleidoscopic view of the civil war, given by a rebel who wore the gray. It Is the tribute of a veteran to the heroes on both sides the lines, to the private as well as the rank officer. The lecture was nothing so much as a series of anecdotes, stories and word pictures, serving to bring in perspective the battles and the men who fought them. Itspoke familiarly of names that are conspicuous in Americau history, of generals whose deeds are known by every school boy Lee, Scott, Sheridan, Ouster Sherman, Hooker, Longstreet, Chamberlain. As the roll was called the orator paid passing-tribute to each Gen.

Gordon is most informal on the platform, he mingled with his Jijiocdotos incidents of a purely personal nature, until his audience felt 11 know him. One experience followed another, in some he himself had participated, others lie had heard, bu1 whether first hand of second, he told It with unction, and never failed lu tho effect. Ho reel ted that one regard- Ing Kwell and his wooden leg. They were riding together across the of battle, when a swiftly flying bullet struck Gen. well in his wooden mem- bur.

"There," he remarked, "don't you see how much better I am equipped to fight this war than you. That bullet never hurt me. To illustrate that the civil war was conducted with an absence of all personal hatred between tho armies, he recited how the Johnnies and Yankees, would intcrvislt and exchange courtesies, where they lay nndei Grant and Leo before the battle of tho Wilderness. A Johnny who had been visiting the boys in blue across the liue.started to return to his regiment. "Good-bye Yankees," he called, "I've had a pleasant time and enjoyed my visit with you.

I hope you'll have a good nights rest, foi we'll give you tomorrow." Many of the stories that followed fast on the heels of those that had gone before Illustrated tho grim humor which was continually waging warfare with despondence. At the time of a retreat the general asked a soldier who was running rapidly: "What are you running so for. "Golly, general, I'm running because I can't fly." The lack of food did not make Lee's men down-hearted. A private had recieved his month's pay. He was discussing with a comrade what he should do with it.

"Buy a bottle of astringent, I say," said the other, "to draw In your stomach to fit the size of your rations." A strong religious element prevailed, mid yet the humor came to the surface. Before the surrender of Appomattox, a tall, lank soldier arose in prayer meeting and offered up his petition: "Oh, Lord, wo are in a sight of trouble down here. We hope you will take a proper view of the subject aud give us the victory." Another petltlonei insisted on praying for courage. growled his comrade. "We've got more courage now than we need; why don't you pray for provisions?" Tho keynote of Gen.

Gordon's address appeared in a single sentence when ho remarked: "That for the iiture glory of our republic it is absolutely immaterial whether on this battlefield or that this side or the other was victorious, every battle won on either side is a monument to American valor."

The extension of the Northern Pacific's Spokane-Palouse branch to Lewiston, and the further extension, the present season, from Lewiston iip Lapwal Creek and up the Clearwater River Into the heart of the old Nez Perce reservation are working wonders. And along with this era of railway expansion, comes the wonderful discovery of gold In the Buffalo Hump country. Here, where forty years ago the placer mines yielded $100,000,000, so the authorities tell us, now are discovered the most stupendous quartz ledges ever known. Between Florence and Elk City, Grangeville and the Salmon River, the probabilities are that Klondike will be outdone. Then too, the farmer and ranchman has his chance.

Between. Lewlston and the Hump lies a fruit and grain region famous around Idaho. The old Springs and Camas Prairie lands can't be beat. As a fruit and grain country this region beats California, and now that new mining camps furnish good and nearby markets and transportation facilities are so much improved, the farmer will find these acres to be as rich mines of gold to him as the quartz ledges are to the miners. So everybody has a chance here, to make a good turn.

Send two cents to Chas. S. Fee, St. Paul, or to any General or District Passenger Agent of the Northern Pacific Railway for the new Buffalo Hump folder. It describes all this region.

It has a large and up-to-date map in colors. A Thousand Tongues. Could not express the Rapture of Annie E. Springer, of 1125 Howard et. Phlladelpha, when she found that Dr.

L. TOOKER. There must be a good reason why the coffee lovers of America buy millions of pounds of ARBUCKLES' COFFEE in preference to any other kind. The reason is found in its rich drinking qualities; in its permanent goodness. The quality never changes.

Whether you buy it of a big coffee dealer or at a little grocery store around the corner, you get the same coffee, the same goodness, the same value for your money. You can't be 'deceived if you buy ARBUCKLES Roasted Coffee It is prepared by an individual firm who value their reputation too highly to endanger it by lowering the standard of their coffee. It is hermetically sealed and put up in packages by people of many years experience and utmost reliability. It is not ground because ground coffee loses two-thirds of its flavor before reaching the consumer. It is not sold in bulk because of the possibilities of adulteration.

It is not sold at a high price because it is better to sell millions of pounds of coffee at a small profit than hundreds of pounds at a large profit. Every package of Arbuckles' Roasted Coffee contains information about many valuable articles that the consumer is entitled to receive. Ask your grocer for Arbuckles' Roasted Coffee.
