WASHINGTON, Get. 18 — "la I
appealing to tho peoplig to return
the Republican, party toj power we
have confidence that the* record of
incompetency of the present ad.
ministration; will mafco impossible
its continuance," declared Re
prtsentatiy Thomas s. Craigo, of
Pennsylvania, in a statement, given
out bv the National Congressional
committee.
"On© year and, five monithis of
Democratic rule found tliq country
with industries paralyzed, the Treas
ury almostt bank nipt, oiur -rig hits
over *h^ Panama Canal surrendered,
wagqs produced the ccst of lit 3ej| in
creased and oair army landed on
Mexicau soil wiithiout excuse of justi«
fuation," continued Representa
tive Crago, who is Plast Commander
in Chief of the Veterans) of For
eign Wars.
"Then the war wi»h Eru'rojpe. The
scvcalle'1, war tax appears, industry
revives because of war oDders^ high
sounding diplomatic notes! are writ
ten, the cry goes up| 'The President
has kept us out of war," when, in
fact every move he made weak
ened us in the estimation, of other
nations, for we committed acts of
war against a weaker nation, Mexi
co, and begged a servile truce wiitii
nations we knew; were stronger.
"Tin -weakness of our foreign pol
icles, ihe record cf broken pledges,
the surrender of ^ur rights, the
useless expenditure of millions and
hypocrisy of Democratic} legislation
is so broad tlia* the oatlence of the
American people hasi been
severely tested. The Wilson ad
ministration went into plorwar pro
claim!^ 'pitiless publicity' anid it
will leave branded as a gum shoe,
secret cabinet regime.
"Th" public recalls the fiasco of
Vera Ciuz and President Wilson's
uu pardonable act ia lifting the em
bargo in arms that our soldiers
should meet dearth from gtunsi furn
ithed to assassins byt permission
of out own government. In thia so
oal.'ed 'peace' moro lives have
been lest and more money spent
than was sacrificed in the war with j
Spain, if we are at 'oeace* should !
mor« *han a hundred thousand of;
our boys be ikying the price of j
war. taten from home and families,'
to u'.ay a game of peace. If we
have been kept from war by any
mat ic t f the President, then how
dco* it ha&*pen that Spain, Norway
Sweden, Switzerland, Holland and j
Denmark, countries much nearer t!¥
European conflict than we are,
have been, able to maintain peace?
"With, a great flourish of trum
pets the Demciarats assumed con
trol, and their record isi a dismal
recital of broken promised and
unfulfilled pledges. The issues of
this campaign, are:
"Firy, tariff revision by; the
friends of a protective tariff, and
no twelfth hour conversion to the
!de>a r" a tariff board cam fool) the
people.
"Second, an Americanism,' which
would piit the United States not
only first among other nations,
but would protect us from forces
within which' would destroy the
foundation of justice on which
oar government is founfdeed.
"Third, a readjustment of the
fiscla afiairs of the government to
the end that the people, who pay
the b'hs, shall haive some say as
to the amount and methods of ex
penditures."

LOWER CALIFORNIA.
Rugged and Barren, It Was Once a
Land of Fablo and Adventure.
Lower California, once a lnnd of fa
ble, romance and thrilling adventure,
Is one of the most sparsely settled re
gions of the Mexican republic. It has
an area corresponding In size to that of
the Atlantic coast peninsula of Flor
ida, but nearly 700 miles more coast
line owing to its extreme length of 700
miles. Florida has more than fourteen
times as many people.
Varying in width from thirty to 130
miles, Lower California is a rugged,
barren strip of land, with a mountain
ous backbone largely of volcanic ori
gin. For nearly 200 years after its dis
covery by the Spaniurda it was thought
to be an island.
The southern portion of the peninsula
has socio rain, but the northern section
Is dry nnd arid, producing cereals, to
bacco, crrapes, cassava nnd sugar cane
only after being thoroughly irrigated.
The mineral resources are valuable
and varied. Gold, silver, lead, copper,
salt, gypsum, turquoises, opals and gar
nets are profitably mined. The silver
mines of La Paz were worked by the
Jesuits as early as 17C0, three years
after the famous pa Ire, Salmiierra,
established the first permanent Spanish
settlement In the land.
The magnificent Magdalena bay, on
whose protected waters, forty miles
long nnd twelve miles wide, the Pa
cific fleets of tlie American navy have
conducted t'.'.eir target practice In re
cent years, was discovered by Fran
cisco de Ulloa In 1539 whi'e on a voy
age of exploration seeking the pearls
and gold of the "Amazons."
Lower California has two capitals—
La Ensenada. with a population of
2,000, sixty-five miles by sea from San
Diego, Cal., and I-a 1'az, with 5,500
people, many of whom earn a liveli
hood from the port's perfisheries,
which are among the most Important
hi the world.
In addition to Its pearl oysters the
waters of Lower California yield
sponges, tortoises, sperm nnd gray back
whales, while in the bayous and river
mouths of the oast coast muny alliga
tors are to be found.
GIFT OF THE GAB.
Why Stephenson Thought There Was
No Powor to Equal It.
■When Ceorge Stephenson, the per
feetor of the locomotive, was visiting
the'seat of Sir Robert Peel at Drayton
on one occasion, says the writer of
"Famous British Engineers." there
happened to be present I>r. Buckland,
the scientist, anil Sir William Foilett,
the famous advocate.
Stephenson discussed with Dr. Ruck
land one of his favorite theories as to
the formation of coal aud, though un
doubtedly In the right, was ultimately
vanquished by the arguments and ora
tory of the doctor, who was a better
master of tongue fence than himself.
Next morning while pondering over his
defeat in the solitude of the garden he
was accosted by Sir William Foilett
and confided to that gentleman (he
story of his failure.
Sir William, acquainted with the de
tails of the matter In dispute, agreed
to take up the case and soon after
ward attacked Dr. Buckland on the
subject. A long discussion ensued. In
which the man of law completely si
lenced the man of science, who was
at last compelled to own himself van
quished. Sir Robert reel, highly
amused at this example of "tit for
tat." then turned to the inventor and
Inquired, with a laugh:
"And what do you say on this mat
ter, Mr. Stephenson?"
"Why," he replied. "1 will only say
this—that of all the powers above and
under the earth there seems to me no
power equal to the gift of the gab."
Never Was ''Union John.''
Of the objects whose name Is derived
from the diminutive of John the union
Jack cannot claim to be one. In the
days of chivalry the knights and men
at-arms wore a sureoat, or "jacque," as
It was called, bearing the emblem ei
ther of their nationality or of the lord
to whose service they were sworn.
Gradually the word was transferred to
the banner which was carried before
the army, and this use of the word still
survives today in the name of the Brit
ish national flag and also that of the
small flagpole at the bow of a ship
known as the "jackstafl."—London
Chronicle.
Two Sets of Muscles.
rou have two sets of muscles—the
outer ones, which you can feel, and
the Inner ones, which are your lungs,
heart, stomach and other Internal or
gans. The outer ones are conveniences
for performing actions. The inner ones
are your life—the "fate" which makes
you happy or depressed, powerful or
weak, useful or the contrary. These
Inner muscles require training, just
like any other muscles, by intelligently
directed exercise.

Deafness Cannot iSe Cured
by local applications, a« they cannot roach
the diseased portion of I lie ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. TJeafn-ss is
causi-d by an inflamed condition of the mu
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. Wln-n
this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or impel feet hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be' taken out
and this tube restoard to its normal condi
tion. hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten ore caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
ease of Deafness (caused i»y catarrh) that
cannot be cured bv Hall's Catarrh Cure,
