CATARRH MADE LIFE A BURDEN TO ME. ISS ANNIE CATRON, 927 Main St., Cintinnati, Ohio, writes: “As I have found Peruna a blessing for a severe case of catarrh of the head and throat which L suffered from for a number of years, I am only too pleased to give it my personal endorsement, “Catarrh, such as I suffered from, made lite a burden to me, my breath was offensive, stomach bad, and my head stopped up so that 1 was usually troubled with a headache, and although I tried many so-called remedies, noth- ing gave me permanent relief, I was rather discouraged with all medicines when Peruna was sugested to me.- “However, I did buy a bottle, and be- fore that was finished there was a marked change in my condition, Much encouraged I kept on until I was com. pletely curedin « month’s time, and L find that my general health is also ex- cellent,” People who prefer solid medicines should try Peruna tablets.

The city attorney of Springfield asked Attorney General Hadley for an opinion as to the city’s right to pase a bill requiring the express com- panies to deliver packages to every part of the city. The attorney gen- eral replies that {¢ f8 not his business vo advise cities what kind of ordi!- nanees they should pass and more- over, he {s too busy to go into the matter. We have all heard how busy he has been for the past week in Denver, telling the reporters of how he has been booming Taft at the Democratic convention. We re- call that he was also busy at Chicago where he says he had to use violence to escape the vice-presidency. Notlong ago Minnesota had arail- way case which was in the limelight. Hadley volunteered to go up there and help Minnesota. He got his ame in the papers, lost a week’s time, but did no good. When the Springfield lynching cases were on he rushed to Springfield, made one objection to some evidence offered, and rushed back to St. Louis to tell case. He wants to shine. office. The trouble with the Springtield case is this: 1¢ fe of little general in- terest outside of Springfield. There He wants connection with it. That is no place for Hadley. He avoids all such. Springfield did not call him in the lynching cases, but the limelight was here and he came.

Washington, July.—That Samuel Gompers has strong supporters in his action {n advising the labor vot- ers of the country to support the Democratic ticket is evident from ex- pressions from prominent labor men here. The movement to discredit Mr Gompers was severely criticised by many interested {n labor and poli- tics. It{s the general impression of Mr. Gompers’ supporters that he has not overstepped the bounde of pro priety in advising labor to support the Democratic. ticket, because, as the representative of labor, he vistt- ed both conventions, and carried out a programme and a policy outlined at the conference held by the inter- national bodies several months ago. Samuel De Nedry, editor of the Trades Unionist and secretary of the Central Labor Union, said that Gompers in his editorial had shown nothing but facts and had merely advised labor that William Jennings Bryan wus pledged to support the principles for which labor has been fighting for many years. James H. Brinkman, international secretary and treasurer of the Car- riage and Wagon Workers, is alao a strong supporter of Mr. Gompers, and, in the matter of the editorial, says that Mr. Gompers has done ex- actly the right thing in publishing his advice and impresstons. “Sam Gompers is the ablest man | | koow {n matters of this kind,” he says, ‘and no matter what his crit- {cs say, he will be able to Influence a large part of the labor vote.” James‘L Feeney, president of the local bookbinders’ unfon, sald: ‘1 do not believe Samuel Gompers cares for any political party, but I do be- Heve he has the right, and I consider it his duty, to advise the member- ship of that organization of the status of the political situation as he sees it.” The First American Voyagers to Japan. It {s commonly assumed that until the memorable visit of Commodore Perry’s equadron in 1853 had shat- tered the ancient Isolation of Japan, no American ship had ever been per- mitted to trade or tarry {n a port of that nation. More than halt a cen- tury, however, before the tenacious diplomacy of Perry wrested a treaty of “friend and commerce,” two Yankee vessels had carried cargoes toand from Nagasaki. Their voy: ages were typical episodes of the era when Salem shipmasters were the firet to fly the;Stare and Stripes from the uncharted coasts of Sumatra to the unknown islands of the South Seas. It was in 1799 that the ship Franklin, owned in Boston, andcom- manded by Capt, James Devereux, of Salem, won the historical distinction of being the first American vessel to find a friendly greeting in'a harbor ot Japan. Two years later, the ship Margaret of Salem, Capt. S. G. Der- by, fared on a Iike errand. Except- ing a handful of Dutch traders, these two ships visited a land as strange and unknown to the outelde world as was the heart of -‘Thibet a dozen years ago.

Cowherd, gubernatorial aspirant, {n a speech before a large crowd in the eourtronm here. : “No truthful man ‘can say I have prom sed any person in thie State appolatment to any position within the gift of the Governor’s office. I want to say further that not a single friend of wine in this State has ever suggested or talked to me about ap- pointments in the event I amelected. “Tf elected to that high office I will be Governor, and no living man shall run the office for me. I will be a difficult enough task for the man who takes that office free and un- trammeled, and I propose to take it that way or retain a post of honor {n a private station.” Mr. Cowherd was met when he ar rived here by General'S. A. Sheppard, secretary of the County Central Uom- mittee, and an {nformal reception was held at the Richelieu Hotel. He departed about 11 o’clock for St. Joseph in an automobile with James Mytton and a party of friends from thatclty. He egohe {n Oregon.

The first sixteen years of her life were spent {n slavery as a house: maid, and, as she can remember nothing about her parents, she does not attempt to explain the mystery which has baffled every one who has seen her, as well as numerous physi clans who have examined her.

Landis in the United States district court, must be tried again. The court of appeals differs with the trial court on three vital pointe, holding that Judge Landis excluded evidence for the Standard Oil com- pany of Indiana, which should have been admitted to show proper intent in the rate the company patd on oll; thas he erred {n considering each car lot @ separate offense, and that in imposing the maximum fine for u firat offense, he abused the discretion vested in his court. “Ié fs strange doctrine,” says the optnion, “whereunder a million dol- lar corporation such as the defend. ant—the Standard O!l company of Indiana—may be fined twenty-nine times the amount of Its capital stock {n order to punish a defendant not even under {ndictment.” By this lat ter la meant the parent company, the Standard Oll company of New Jersey. : This decision, concurred in by Judge Baker and Judge Seaman, was delivered by Judge Peter Groe- sup who wrote the opinion, The con- cluding sentence of the opinion reads: The judgment of the district court {s reversed and the case remanded with instructions to grant a new trial, and proceeded further {n ac. cordance with thie opinion.
