Election day. Tuesday, Nov. C, 1000.
. While for vote-making purposesthe republicans are tusking aboutthe early return of the volunteersfrom the Philippines, the WarDepartment ia arranging to for¬ward 2,000 recruits to the Philip¬pines from San Francisco, withinthe next two weeks. That's thedifference between talking and act¬
ing-_
The Board of Construction ofthe Navy Department evidentlytakes no stock in the fairy tales ofMr McKinley and other republi¬cans, concerning the future-reduc¬tion of the government's income
by the repeal of the war taxes, as
it is going ahead upon a projectfor building additions to our Navythat will make it imperialistic iiisize, as well as in the class of yes-6els. This project involves theconstruction of no les3 than 40warships. How much all this is tocost has not boen given out, and,of course, will not be until afterelection, but that it be enormous,is centain. and that if carried out,it will require an increase in taxa¬tion, instead of the reductionpromised, is equally certaiu.
Robbed tho Grave.A 9tartliug incident, is narrated by
John Oliver of Philadelphia, as follows:?'I wa9 in an a»vful condition. jVly skinwas almost yellow, eyes sunken, tonguecoated, pain continually in back andsides, no appetite, growing weaker dayby day. Three physicians had given me
np. Then 1 was advised to use ElectricBitters; to my great joy, the tirst bottlemade a decided improvement. I con¬
tinued their use for three weeks, and amnow a well man. I know they robbedthe grave of another victim." No oneshould iail to try them. Ouly 50c, guar¬anteed, at S. J. Carson drug store.

More On The Nineteenth Century[Continued from Issue of Oct. 19.]Auother of the achievements of
the nineteenth century has beenthe proclamation of liberty, andthe rights of man. Whereas inother centuries despots have heldsway and trampeled on the rightsof the masses, the said century hashappily become known as the era
of freedom.The establisment of the United
States as a republic with her mar¬
velous growth in said century to¬gether with the rise of republics inSouth America, Central America,Mexico, and Europe, has establish¬ed beyond reversal, the doctrine ofbnniait freedom.Another happy fruitage of the
century has been the granting ofconstitutional rights to the people,bv trie leading monarchies, of theOld World. But the nicest strikingaugury of good in this direction inthe century has been tne abolitionof African slavery. The dawn ofthe nineteenth century found theCoarse of slayerv in almost everyland. It was not only in old'Eng-land but it was in New England as
well. According to old statistics,in the year 1800 there were eightslaves in the state of Newhamp-shire, 381 in Rhode Island, 1000 inConnecticut and over 20,000 inNew York. The transition fromthese conditions is gratifying. TheCentury has closed with slaveryabolished in every civilized land.And with the leading Nationsl>a nded ta pether, to exterminate itin all lands. This emancipation ofmillions, who could not choose or
act for themselves, is one of thecrowning achievements of the Cen¬tury and constitutes an open doorfor the Gospel of Jesus Christ.Turning to the progress made in
mechancial and industrial deviceswe are confronted by an almostboundless field of research andinquiry. In the field of artificiallighting it is a surprising f-vct thatno progress worthy of mentionwas mahe in thousands of years.The home on which said centurydawned had no other light thanthe fire on the hearth, a tallowCandle or possibly a whale oil lamp,those crude means of illuminationwhich had been in use in Babylonand Egypt three thousand years
ago, still remained the only lightfor the homes ani the cities at thedawn of the aforesaid century. Thechange which a hundred yeera haswrought is amazing. The discoy-ery of petroleum, and gas. andtheir uses for illumination, togeth¬er with the more recent applica¬tion of electricity marks, a revolu¬tion in this department sufficientalone to make a century famous.The present illumination of thehomes, business placet, churches,public buildings and cities of ourcountry, contrasted with the tallowcandle of a century ago shows a
progress a thousand times greaterthan the combined progress of allother centuries since the creation.A similar advancement and one
wholly developed in the aforesaidcentury is the improved means forand the rapidity of modern travel¬ing. At the dawn of the centurypeople could not travel faster than licould that noble animal, the horse. INo progress had been madein thous-11ands of years and the hone still jremained the swiftest ami principlemeans of travel and communica¬tion. In the year 1800 there was
not a mile of steam railway in theWorld, and it was not until themiddle of the Century's fourth de¬cade that 1.000 miles could bereckoned in this country. Thecentury closed with more than237,000 miles of track in the Unit¬ed States, or more than enough tobuild nine lines of railway aroundthe entire Globe,The transition from the days of
the horseback rider and the st;igecoach to this present gigantic ex¬
tention of the railway system is a
revolution iu conveyance sufficient¬ly great, the way the world hasbeen moving, to constitute therecord of 4 000 years but instead itis the record of the last 70 years ofthe writer's life. It is a marvelouslesson of rapid and world wide de¬velopment, and yet accomplishedwithin a single life time. Thenineteenth Century has closed therecord of thousands 'of years whenthe horse was the swiftest meansof conveyance the tallow candle,tile means of artificial light, andthe supple flail, the instrument forthreshing grain.
With the development of facili¬ties for increased travel,the centuryhas also, solved the problem of theinstaneous conveyance of intelli¬gence, which has brought theends of the World in close proximityto each other. When it is remem¬bered that in 184'") there was not a
mile of telegraph wire in theWorld, it seems strange that 00years should have made possiblesuch a revolution. The Centuryclosed with a vast telegraphic sys¬tem covering the World with netivoik of wire 5,000.000 miles in ex¬
tent and more than the half ofwhich is in theUnitedStat.es.

AtJohn A.Whitelaw'sCAPES AND JACKETS.
When it comes to my line ofladies' capes and jackets I do notfear competition. When I selectedtiiese goods I was careful to gettiie styles that are wotn this season.As to prices I think it will pay youto examine my stock before youmake your purchase.
LEFT-OVEIt BOOTS.Boots carried over from last sea¬
son have the advantage over thosepurchased this year, because theyjame under old time prices. If youwill let me fit you in a pair youget that advantage.
SIIOE TALK.
All I ask is that my larg**andvarried assortment of ladies1 ando-entlemen's shoes, now on thedielyes, receive a careful inspectionjt your hands. I have no fear that1 will be unable to please you, forill this department it is a rare thingthat I ever miss a sale, because ofthe superior line I handle. Thetrade demanded, first, a large stockto select from, second, a varied as¬
sortment and third, the very latestiud most proper thing in highj-rade shoes. 1 haye combined the;hree.
AS I WAS GOING TO REMAR5,D this matter of clothing.suitsfor boys and men.had yon everthought there is a vast differencen the way they are cut and made?Some suits fit in a way; you getfour size in inches, that's about all.rhey havn't . the proper set andlon't hang right. They are cheap-y made. In buying your wintermit have au eye to this. The firmrom which I buy my clothing has
t wide reputation as to the perfectitting of its garments. They are
)eaiitifully ruade, set well and hangiroperly from the first. I simpleisk that you look through mytock. No "away back" numberso go over.
SPEAKING OF MY STOCK,
n a general way, I would say thatny store is now well filled witheasonable goods, and I again hopeur a share of your patronage. Asas been my custom I shall cou-inue to handle all marketable pro-uce. Respectfully,
John A, Whitelaw.
