NO SOLUTION OF DIFFICULTY IN SIGHT | Meeting of Wholesale Grocers Strug- gles with the Problem and ¥ Decides Nothing Can Be Done Except to Walt, 1y | The competition between the cane and | beet sugar interests and resultant disor- | gauization of the sugar market in this part of the country is the “emergency” which brought together in Council Bluffs yester- day the members of the lowa and Nebraska Wholesale Grocers' association in a spe- clally called meeting. This was the prin- | cipal question before the meeting, although | the matter of raliroad rates was also dis- { cussed. That the “emergency”’ was one that needed action was evident by the large attendance, over fifty of the wholesale houses having membership 4n the associa- tlon having representatives present, while others were represented by proxies. The beet and came sugar meet at the | Missouri river and them comes the tug of war and the consequent cutting 'of prices | in the territory along the Missouri river. This gives the wholesalers along the Mis- sourl river territory the advantage over their competitors who are not so favorably located. It was to try to equalize matters | that yesterday's meeting was called. Ac- cording to Major Samuel Mahon of Ot- tumwa, president of the association, it was | finally decided to let the question soive it- self as the “emergency” would cease to ex- 18t in two or three months as the beet sugar supply would only last about three months. The meeting, after threshing the matter over at two sessions, decided that it was a | problem it could not solve by any action it might take. | During the discussion it developed that | some of the wholesalers who are not lo- cated aleng the line of the Missouri river have been forced by the war between the cane and beet sugar interests or trusf | they term them, to actually sell this prod- luct at a loss or at a margin so small that there was practically no profit Jeft in the business. They were the men who wanted a “solutica” of the vexatious question, while those situated in the favored terri- tory sat still and sawed wood, being ap- | parently content with the conditions as | they existed. Most ef the members left for their homes | at the close of the meeting last evening. The officers of the assoclation are: Pres lent, Major S. Mahon, Ottumwa; secre- tary, J. L. Root, Keokuk.

The Board of County Supervisors ad- journed yesterday afternoon to the regular | meeting in January without taking action relative to the purchase of a poor farm. although President Brandes stated emohat- fcally that he intended the farm should be purchased before spring. A discussion de- veloped the fact that the members of the board are not agreed as to the location of the farm, but they are all of one opinion that when they purchase the requisite land it shall be the best. President Brandes and Supervisor Baker were appointed a committee to engage the services of two competent accountants to check up the accounts of the officers whose terms expire January 1. The county auditor was instructed to notify the park commissioners that a set- tlement must be effected without further delay for the portion of the Huntington lot which has been fenced in with Fairmount park. The county board demands $200 for the land, while the park board is only will- ing to pay $100. The property was taken by the county in foreclosure on a school fund 1oan.

V. Eckert of Northwood is president and D. M. Grove of Nevada gccretary. The first formal meeting wés held this evening, when reports were made from the officers and the assoclation was welcomed by the governor and mayor. There is the usual display of agricultural ~madhinery by the jobbing houses and the becasion is made one for the exchange of views in regard to business. One subject brought up informally, but which will be acted upon regularly before the session s over, is that of tha harvester trust. The members of the assoclation have become alarmed over the formation of this trust and fear that it will result in ereat disarrangement of business. Efforts have been made by officers of the ussoclation to obtain from the managers of the frust in- formation as to the probable policy which Is to be pursued toward the implement dealers, jobbers as well as retailers, but the officers reported today that they could not obtain any definite information. The officials formally invited the trust to send a representative to this meeting to meet with the dealers and explain the vlans which are to be followed. This was en- tirely ignored. It is the intention of some of the members to pass strinkent resolu- tions in regard to this matter anl to em- power a committee to take whatever ac- tion may be deemcd best.

R, been looked upon by able physicians as a' serious thing, and that no time should be lost in treating it properly at the start, be. cause recent researches have shown that the most serious, fatal and incurable dis eases have their origin in simple dyspep- sia or indigestion. Diabetes is simply one form of indiges- | tion, the sugar and starchy food hot be- ' imilated by the digestive organs. In Bright's disease the albumen {s not prop- erly assimilated. While consumption and dyspepsia are twin diseases, and it is beyond question that dyepepsia makes & fertile soll for the seeds of consumption. But the trouble has been to find & remedy that could be de- pended upon to cure dyspepsia, as it is no- toriously obstinate and difficult to cure. This has been tho question which has puzzled physicians and dyspeptics alike, un- til the question was solved three years ago by the appearance of & new discovery in the medical world known as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which it was claimed was a cer- tain, reliable cure for every form of stom- ach trouble. Physicians, however, would not accept such atements without first giving the new remedy many tests and carefully ob- serving results. For three years the remedy has been thoroughly tested in every section of the country and with surprising and satisfac- tory results. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be hon- estly claimed to be a specific, a radical, lasting cure for indigestion in the various forms of acid dyspepsia or sour stomach, gas or wind on stomach, too much bile, un- Que fullness or pressure after eating and ing similar symptoms resulting from disordered digestion. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets were not placed before the public until this three years' trial left no doubt as to their value and they have recently been placed in the trade and can be found on sale at all drug- gists at the nominal price of 50 cents per package. No extravagant clalms are made for the remedy, it will not cure rheumatism, poeu- monia, typhold fever nor anything but just what it is claimed to cure and that is every form of stomach trouble. No dieting is necessary, g0od wholesome food and plenty of it and you may rest assured that Stu- art’s Dyspepsia Tablets will digest it.
