Says That Pennypacker Has Solidi

ROOSEVELT MUST BE SUSTAINED
Interesting Interview With the Distin
guished Ex-Minister and Cabinet
Member —Is Heartily In Favor of
IJennypackcr, and Will Take Stump.
(From Our Own Correspondent.)
Philadelphia, AUK. 5. —The fact that
the Republican party Is united in sup
port of Judge Pennypacker is being
demonstrated every day. Hon. Charles
Emory Smith, Post-Master General in
the cabinet of McKinley and Roosevelt,
and editor of the Philadelphia Press,
is the latest distinguished Republican
to arid his voice to the Pennypacker
volume. He will be heard later on the
stump.
The Philadelphia Press has always
been noted for its Independent Repub
lican leanings; this year it is support
ing the Republican ticket with all the
virile force of its editorial page.
Your correspondent had a lengthy in
terview with General Smith yesterday.
Besides being a former minister to St.
Petersburg and member of the Cabi
net he is one of the best posted men on
great national issues In this or any
other state. In his interview, which
follows, the Ex-Postmaster General
expressed himself with great earnest
ness and vigor. He said:
WANTS THE PARTY TO STAND
TOGETHER.
"For nearly four years prior to last
January. I was practically out of
Pennsylvania politics. While at Wash
ington, in the Cabinet, I could not ac
tively participate in State movements.
On my return in January to resume my
place among the active Republicans of
the state,l was exceedingly anxious
that the party should act in such a
manner that all Republicans of every
shade could stand together in its sup
port.
"It was important on broad national
grounds that the Republican organiza
tion of Pennsylvania should take this
position. It is a transition time. The
events of the past four years have put
the party on a new trial. While not
relinquishing Its devotion to the eco
nomic, financial and moral principles
with which Its past history has been
identified, the advance of the republic
to new obligations and new responsi
bilities In the worl 1 has surrounded the
nation and the party in control with
new conditions. It Is vital that the
ability of the party to meet a new situ
ation should be demonstrated and that
its hold on public confidence should not
be impaired.
A CRITICAL SITUATION.
"The situation Is critical In another
respect. President McKinley had pass
ed away and President Roosevelt had
taken the helm. The accession of a
Vice President to the Presidency under
such circumstances has always here
tofore been marked hy trouble and con
flict In every cas", except Immediate
ly after the war when the Southern
States did not participate in the elec
tion, It has been followed by political
revulsion. President Roosevelt's pa
triotic continuation of President Mc-
Kinley's policies and the great ability,
courage and fidelity with which he has
addressed himself to the highest inter
ests of the people, have made the situ
ation different from all previous suc
cessions. Mnt no risks should be taken
and the Republican organization should
be as wise and true as the President in
holding the ship steadfast on her
course.
"While the Republican party is thus
swinging to a new position and facing
new and broader questions, it would
he disastrous if Pennsylvania should
do anything that would weaken the
movement The country and the party
must become as fixed and stable on the
new lines as they were on the old. it
was this reason which made it speci
ally important that the Republican or
ganization of Pennsylvania should pro
(eed In such a way as to make no divis
ion and detract nothing from the
strength of the administration and the
national position of the party.
PENNYPACKER HAS PARTY'S
CONFIDENCE.
"This fortunate result was assured
in the nomination of Judge Penny
packer for Governor. That nomination
made it certain that the Republicans
of the state would stand together and
that at this important juncture, when
the party faces the future under new
conditions, its successful career will not
be clouded hy any doubt or any extran
eous issues In Pennsylvania. Judge
Pennypacker possesses and deserves
universal confidence. He has been
twelve years on the bench and has been
distinguished as a learned, fearless and
upright judge. He is a man of an in
dependent type of inind who thinks and
acts for himself, and whose sense of
right and honor controls all his ac
tion.
REPUBLICANS EVERYWHERE
SATISFIED.
"The strength of his nomination is
shown in the fact that it has practi
cally disarmed criticism and opposi
tion and has been accepted by Repub
licans of ail shades as meeting the re
quirements of the situation. It is
withift my knowledge that leading Re
publicans of every part of the country
have expressed their great gratifica
tion at the wisdom of this action and
their satisfaction that the Republicans
of Pennsylvania will present a united
front. The President, who is so earn
estly laboring to meet the best demands
of the country and to keep it on the
high plane of prosperity and progress,
is strengthened !>> the responsiveness
of the Republicans of Pennsylvania to
the spirit of the times, and such a vic
tory as may now be expected will up
hold his hands in his good work."
Later In the interview General Smith
said that he expected to take the stump
for Pennypacker this fall.
Take care of the stomach and the
health will take care of itself, if
people only realized the soundness of
that statement the majority might live
to a good old age like Moses, "the eye
undimuied.the natural force unabated. "
It is in the stomach that the food is
made. It is from the stomach that
nourishment is dispensed to nerve and
mnscle. If the stomach is "weak" it
can't do its whole work for each part
of the body. If it is diseased the dis
ease will taint the nourishment
which is distributed, and so spread dis
ease throughout the body. It was the
realization of the importance of the
stomach as the very center of health
and the common source of disease,
which led Dr. Pierce to prepare his
"Golden Medical Discovery." "Diseases
which originate in the stomach must be
cured through the stomach." The
soundness of this theory is proved every
day by cures of diseased organs, heart,
liver, lungs, blood, —by the use of the
"Discovery" which is solely and singly
a medicine for the blood and organs of
digestion and nutrition. It is a tem
perance medicine containing no alcohol,
whiskey or other intoxicant.

A YOUNG LADY'S LIFE SAVED.
At Panama, Ootomuhia, by Chamberlain's
Colic Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
Dr. Chas. H. Utter, a prominent phy
sician, of Panama, Columbia, in a recent,
letter states: "Last March I had as a
patient a young lady sixteen years of
age, who had a very bad attack of ilys
eutery. Everything I prescribed for
her proved ineffectual and she was grow
ing worse every hour. Her parents
were sure she would die. She had be
come so weak that she could turn over
in bed. What to do at this critical mo
ment was a study for me, but I thought
of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy and as a last resort
prescribed it. The most wonderful re
sults were effected. Wit hin eight hours
she was feeling much better; inside of
three days she was upon her her feet
and at the end of one week was entirely
well." For sale by Panles & Co. No.
