A HOUSE DIVIDED.,

It is the simple truth. as Culli-i;
Thomas slates the case, common
sense dictates that the prohibition
faction of the Democratic party shall
settle upon one man in some kind of
elimination prlmarj for the coming
election of a governor of Texas, if
they hope to have tlie slightest chance
of victory.
Experience has shown them this.
The failure to see the tiling in its pro
per ilnlunce four years ago cost them
the victory and put Oscar Brunch i ol
quit in the executive chair. it has
been charged, and ft of quite common
belief with many Texas Democrats
■ that the flue Italian hand of a form*-.
United States/senator was respom dim-
for the conditions that brought about
the defeat of the prohlbiion ticket, li
is claimed and believed that Mr. Hai-
ley foresaw that the outcome would
be as it fell. This may he son; ami it
may not. But a house divided against
itself must fall, it lias always bee:
sc It will always be so to the cm
of time.
* Nothing could suit the other side o
the political situation In this «t ’*
better than for the prohibition clemc t
to remain divided and ail enter U.u
race in a mad scramble. The II* r b

Doubtless either would make an hon-
est and capable governor.
We like Mr. Mayes best, of all those
who have announced for governor
But Mr. Mayes cannot fall to recog-
nise that circumstances such as now
confront him may, and almost surely
will defeat his ambition.
With an almost unlimited number
of well known prohibitionists in the
race the vote of that element would b<
so split up that a totally unknown
man may easily win on a minority
vote and we would again be confront-
ed by the same situation that has pre
vailed for the past four yotrs

the stomach, liver and bowels. «>
* Prickly Ash Bitters begins right by
cleansing the bladder and bowels —
thereby driving out the impurities which
started all the trouble. After this has
been accomplished the healing and re-
iterative element in the medicine will
continue the good work, building up
anew the weakened kidneys, stimulating
the lfrer to greater activity, purifying
the blood, and extending its restorative
influence to every part of the body. As
a result the appetite and digestion im-
prove, the eyes are brighter, the strength
returns, the hollow cheeks fill out, the
complexion loses that sallow muddy
cast, giving place to a clear akin and the
ruddy glow of health.
Much depends on the promptness with
which the treatment is- commenced.
Prickly Ash Bitters has cured many ad-
vanced cases that would not yield to
other remedies, but it must be reniem-
l»ered that there is a stage in kidney dis-
ease beyond which no power on earth
can save the patient. Take Warning!
If you suspect anything wrong w Ah your
kidneys, begin treatment at once. It is
your best hope of a cure.
