STOCK DISEASE Cattle Owners Cautioned to Isolate Cases of Stomat- itis in Nebraska. TO PREVENT ITS SPREAD (From a_Statf Corresv:ndem.) Lincoln, Dec. 35—(Special.)—Dr. Anderson, state veterinarian, after an investigation of the conditions which have prevailed relative to the foot- and-mouth disease among cattle, has issued the following statement: Owing to the fact that™the stockmen of {his state are confronted with a disease af- fecting horses and _ cattle, known as Vesicular stomatitls, and owing to the fact that it has become pretty widespread and as a result the state has received uncom- plimentary advertising, and it is transmit- ted largely through the public stock yards, livery barns and public drinking tanks, I deem it is my duty to ask every perse in this state who has in their possessiow any animals affected with this disease to isolata them and to treat them with some appro- priate mouth wash or antiseptic until the animals have recovered; to hold under ob- servation all exposed animals for at least cight days. The well animals should be pre. vented from getting food or water mouthed ,ver by animals with sore mouths. The premises where infected animals have been Lept should be thoroughly cleaned and dis- infected with a 5 per cent solution of car- bolic acid or a 3 per cent solution of liquor cresolis compound, or their equivalents. With the hope that we can get a liberal og-operation of the stockmew who own ani- mhls that are affected with the disease in questien, I deem it will not be practical to cstablish a general quarantine, although some states are quarantined against us on accoint of thls disease and the prospects are they will femaln so for some time. If we could get the hearty co-operation of all persons who have stock in their charge or barns, vards and other accessories where the dfsease is spread, it will then be pos- sible to relieve the situation without estab- lishing a general quarantine. Where we find it impossible to get the co-operation of some individuals, we will then establish a special quarantine to take care of these con- ditions, as in our estimation will be advisa- ble to conform with reasonable and sane sanitation. - 0ld Settlers Have Meting at Stockville Stockville, Neb., Dec. 5.—(Special.) —The Old Settlers’ association held its second meeting at the court house Saturday afternoon.

Governor Proclaims Vote on Amendments (From a Staft Correspondent.) Lincoln, Dec. 5.—(Special.)—In or- der that the people of Nebraska may be sure that the state went dry at the last election, Governor Morehead has issued a proclamation in which he as- sures the people that such is the case. He proclaims that the amendment polled 303,685 votes as a total, of which 146,574 were for the dry propo- sition and 117,132 were against it, making a majority of 29,442 for the amendment, which makes the amend- ment carry because the proposition re- ceived more than the required threc- fifths vote in its favor. He also assures the people that the pure food amendment did not receive the required three-fifths vote in its fa- vor and is therefore lost. The vote showed 302,685 votes cast for and against, of which 91,215 were for it and 105993 against it, therefore not carried. \ Two Counaas Hold Out Against Insanity Fee (From a Staff Correspondent.) Lincoln, Dec. S.—(Speci;l.)—There is still $46,785.78 due the state on the old insane accounts, according to a report prepared by State Auditor Smith and given out today.

If you know someone who is troubled with head noises, or Catarrhal Deafness, cut out this formula, and hand it to them, and you will have been the means of saving some poor sufferer perhaps from total deafness. Recent experiments have proved conclusive- ly that Catarrhal Deafness, head noises, etc., were the direct cause of constitutional dis- ease, and that salves, sprays, inhalers, etc., merely temporize with the complaint and seldom, if ever, effect a permanent cure. This being so, much time and money has been spent of late by a noted specialist in perfecting a pure, gentle, yet effective tonic that would guickly dispel all traces of the catarrhal poison from the system. The ef- fective prescription which was eventually formulated, and which has aroused the be- lief that deafness will soon be extinct, is given below in understandable form, so that anyone can treat themselves in thein, own home at little expense. Secure from your druggist 1 oz. Parmint (Double Strength) about 75c worth. Take this home and add to it !4 pint of hot water and 4 oz of granulated sugar; stir until diu;olved. ‘Take one tablespoonful four times s day. The first dose should begin to relieve the distressing head noises, headache, dull- ness, cloudy thinking, etc., while the hear- ing rapidly returns as the system is i vigorated by the tonic action of the treat- ment. Loss of smell and mueus dropping in the back of the throat, are other symptoms that show the presence of catarrhal poisog, and which are often entirely overcome % this efficacious treatment. Nearly ninety per cent of all ear troubles are directly caused by catarrh: therefore, there must be many people whose hearing can be restored by this simple home treatment. Every person who is troubled with head noises, catarrhal deafness or catarrh in any form, should give this prescription a trial. —Advertisement. Constipated?

He said that he knew where the slaughter house was located, near which Mrs. Vina Tompkins of Mar- shalltown testified that she overheard the alleged murder plot in the fall of 1911, previous to the murder of the Joe Moore family; that he saw it about twenty years ago, but not since that time until a few da go, when he visited it in company with his at* | torney, He denied that he ever took part in a conversation near that slaughter house in which someonc asked, "Where will we get the money?” as was brought out in the testimony of Mrs. Tompkins. In his testimony this afternoon Senc ator Jones told about his going in company with other persons to the Joe Moore home on the morning after the murder, and he stated that he did everything he could to assist in find- ing out who committed the crime, ¢ He denied that he was ever in a room over the postoffice building in buoyed up the hope that he would survives Member of First Oil Trust. John D. Archbold was almost as closely identified with the history of | the Standard Oil company as John D. Rockefeller himseli. One of the| first nine trustees of the “trust” form- | ed in 1892, he alone remained in this capacity until its dissolution in 1911 at the order of the United States su- preme court, and it was he who was named to engineer the dissolution, after which he became president and director of the Standard Oil company of New Jerscy. He was the most ag- gress fighter in the oil combine and invariably represented the Stan- dard Oil on the witness stand m nu- merous hearings in connection with the government's suit to dissolve it. This publicity was still further heightened by the publication of a score or more of letters from Mr. | Archbold to Joseph B. Foraker, then | senator from Ohio, Representative Joseph C. Sibley of Pennsylvania and other statesmen, showing that large sums of money had bheen distributed for the alleged purpose of influencing favorabde legislation at Washington. | Mr. Archbold considered them as torney fees. The publication of ti letters exposed Mr. Archto'd to a tack from every quarter. John Dustin Archbold was born at Leesburg, O., July 26, 1848, and was working in a country store at Salem, 0., when he heard of the wonderful oil regions in western Pennsylvania, where men were becomipg rich over night.
