TROUBLE.
Heart trouble, at least anion?
!Anwr!ca,n.«. Is certajnly increasing anil
(while this may be largely dun t" the
excitement ami worry of American but!
jiejis life. It Ik more often the result of
w«nk lomaeh3, of poor dlirenHon.
Real organic disease Is Incurable; but
rot one case in a, hundred of heart trou-
ble is organic.
The close relation between heart trou-
f>le a.nd p >or digestion is because both
organs are controlled bv the same grea't
Serves, the Sympathetic and the Pheu-
mongas trie.
In another way tho heart is also af-
fected by the form of poor digestion,
which causes Raw and fermentation from
half digested food. There is a feeling of
oppression and heaviness In the ch i*t
caused by pressure of the distended
Stomaeh on the heart and dungs. Inter-
fering with their action, hence arises pal-
pitation and short breath
Poor digestion also poisons the tolood.
making it thin nnd watery. whldh Irri-
tates and weakens the heart.
The moot sensible treatment for heart
trouble Is to Improve the digestion and
lo Insure the prompt assimilation of food.
This can he dore by the regular use af-
ter meals of Rime safe, p easant and ef-
fective directive preparation, 1 k«

be found at drug stores, urud which con-

^Special. )-JThe regular city election held
heo tod^ay was attended .by little open
activity on the part of the -candidates

entirely ignored1 and> about the only Is-

system. The prumiotera of municripni

the city could give better service at a
greatly mluoed) rate than is at present
the case under private ownership. This
question was not sufficiently agitated
to cause the appearance of many cabs
and other vehicles on Che streets to as-
sist voters to do their plain duty. The
general result of the election chows a
mixed) victory, the republicans winning
exactly one half of the candidate* which
gives the *iean ocrats tJiree councltmen

POPULIST PAPER.
ANOTHER BREAD AND WATER
SCHEME FOR A PATRIOTIC
EDITOR.
OKLAHOMA CITY, O. T. APRIL 3.—
(Special.)—It is current talk in popullst-
ic circles here that there will short.y be
an effort mado to establish a populist
weekly paper to bo ustdl for tho good' of
the cause during the coming campaign.
Tho demise of the "Anti-Trust," a pub-
lication of popullstlc tendencies, which
occurred: a few days ago, has opened the
way for a paper spousing tho slm'on
pure doctrine. It Is not thought that
there Is any malice aforethought on the
part of the instigators to continue the
publication of the paper longc/r than the
ctose of the campaign. 4 j
BROWN'S TRIAL CN.

1:30 a. m —(Special.)—The trial of Attor-
ney J. W. Brown, charged with subor-

Tho prosecution Is Attorneys Taylor,
Mitchell and C. P. Lewis. The trial Is
exciting a great deal of interest.
STILLWATER, O. T„ APRIL 4 —
I CSpecial.)—In your lssuo of tho lot inst.,
was a statement of a proposition looking
toward tho establishment or a beet sug-
ar factory at Guthrio \® doubt the
commercial club will eJh.ruet a full in-
vestigation before embarking m tn!« en-
terprise. It has not yet been shown
that It is possible to grow beets of a'tf-
ficient purity ami richness for sugar
manufacture in Oklahoma. Beets "as
big as a bl* man's hat" are, as a ru e,
excellent feed for cows, but useless for
manufacturing sugar.
Oklahoma grow* so many things to
such perfection that Wa dislike to al;
j mit tliat -we canft grow sugar beets for
j sugar, but there is no goodi reason 10
j believe that we can. Beets prefer a cool-
1 <r climate than we have here and north-
1 ern Kansas seems to be the extretmo
southern limit of their successful cul-
; turo in this longitudte.
I The following from* the rf'port of tbo
Okiahoma Agricultural "Experiment Sta-
| tlon for 1S!*S-'P9 is of some Interest In
this connection:
j "Experiments, In co-operatl " ni W.'h
1 the U. S. Dejjairtment of Agriculture,
wrtre conducted dturlng th** seasons of
1897 and 3S9S and are being continued
this season.
1 'The results of two seasons^ work are
summarized as follows:
"1. It has not be<.tn foftind! that beets
of sufficiently higlv grade for sugar
manufacture can be grown on a com-
mercial sctvlo In Oklahoma.
"2. During the season of 1897, 21 sam-
ples were ana'.lsxld representing eleven
counties. They showed' a mean percent-
age of sugar in the juice of 12.0 arul aj
mlan coefficient of purity of tT>.3. But
one sample contained) mow than 12 per
cent of sugar In the Juice with a coeffi-
cient of purity of NO, which Is the stand-
ard for su'bar manufacture. A sample
representing another eounty was ana-
lyzed at Washington; the pcrrcentage of
sugar in the juice was 12.4 and the co
j efficient of jurity 72.5.
1 "3. During the season of f 10 sam-
ples were analyzed representing 10 coun-
ties. They showed a meat* i^ftrcentanre
of sugar In the juice of 9.4 and a coeffl-
cient of purity of 67.6. As In 1897, thiero
was but one sample of sufficient purity
[and rlchmMs for sugar manufacture.
"4. Combining the resru is of 1S97 and
1898, 41 samples represent I n?r 14 counties
ha\e been analyzed, showing a mean
percentage of sugar in the Juice of 10.9
and a. mean coefXclent of purity of 66.H.
Of the 41 sample^ examlneo, but two
were of a quality sal tied to sugar manu-
facture."
While it Is true that this work Is not.
sufficient In amount to 1>e positively
conclusive. It certainly indicates th* de-
sirability of exercising great caution be-
fore investing in a sugar factory.

I have uwd Wine of Cardui twice when I w very sick and will never forget if. The first time when I wa a girl of 16. My monthly iickness
beume suppressed and very painful and I had fallen off to a shadow. I had a hacking cough and had almost despaired of ever being well again,
when a dear friend persuaded me to give Wine of Cardui and Black-Draught a trial, and after I had taken half a bottte I commenced feeling better than I
ever remember to have felt in my life before. Several years later, after I was married, I had been scrubbing all day and hid taken told—it was near my
time to be sick, hut the mentis did not appear. I had a hard chill next day and lay in bed for five weeks. They did not know whether I would live from
one day to another, although some of our bat physicians did their best for mc. We had about tost all hope when I remembered the old remedy of
my girlhood days, and got my husband to buy me a bottle unknown to the doctor. Before the first bottle w«l gunc I got relief. I am just as
certain I would havt have been in my grave now, if I had not Ukcn It, as I am that I am living. Mrs. a t. NICHOLSON.
