W. ]. Smith, president OF the Ameri-

TO frignten members into accepting
places at the company's terms. With n
view to this the company has had agents
circulating among the foremen, making
them various promises, but many OF
the foremen thus approached have
had the good sense to discern
that the promises could last
only long enough to permit the trust to
accomplish the ends they aim at, and
have refused point blank 10 work dur
ing the pending trouble. Workmen
have boon educated by experience to
know how to appreciate the promises OF
the United States Glass Company. 1t
is but little while since many Of the
foremen whom they are now seeking to
uso against their former shopmates
were shabbily treated by that company,
and even without such treatment their
reason would suggest to them that q

summarily dismiss hundreds OF work.

Of the Flints has no bearing on those

Said one glassworker Yesterday: "The
Glassworkers' union has million dol

the United States Company in deciding
to run their plants non-union, marks
the beginning OF fight between the

The school tax for this district
has been reduced by the board from
65 to GO cents on the 500 valuation.
They figured to reduce the tax still
lower but could not do 30 and con-
tinue the schools for zine months.
As the bonds are paid the extra tax
levy will be reduced each year. The
board has q sinking fund provided
and when money enough has accu.
mulated a bond is taken up,and in a
few more years the entire debt will
be lifted and no extra tax will then
be asked. As it now stands the pub
lie will have to vote the extra lev,
or cut the school year down to fivs
or six months. OF course this would
not do and the people will as here
tofore vote for the levy almos,

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
ative; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
1eys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in soc and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

The shadows

The shddoacs
that fill your life, if you're feeble,
suffering woman, can be taken out
of it. The chronic weaknesses,
functional arrangements, and pain
full disorders peculiar to your sex,
can be taken away. The one
unfailing remedy for them is DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
1t corrects, cures, and builds you
up. 1t improves digestion, enriehes
the blood, dispels aches and pains,
melancholy and nervousness, brings
refreshing sleep and restores health
and strength. For periodical pains,
internal inflammation and ulcera-
ton, weak back, leucorrhea, and all
kindred ailments, it's positive spe-
cifc-one that is guaranteed. If
it fails to give satisfaction, in any
case, the money paid for it is re-
turned.
The great, gripping, old-fashioned
pills make trouble. DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets prevent it. Theirs
is the notara, way. Sick Headache,
Biliousness, Constipation. Indiges-
ton, and all arrangements of the
Liver, Stomach and Bowels are pre-
vented, relieved and cured. Small.

TOWNSHIP ORGANIZATION STANDS

Governor Stone has used his pre-
rogative by vetoing the bill passed
by both houses to abolish township
organization The governor basis
his reasons for this action on con-
stitutional grounds and further that
such action is unwarranted in view
of the fact the counties now operat
ing under that law are satisfied
with its workings and have their
business in such a shape that such
and act would greatly discommode
aud inconvenience them
While the editor of the TINES is
opposed to the system and has been
for years-his opposition being bas-
ed upon its practical workings from
a personal observation and expe-
rience-still We are inclined to be-
lieve with Governor Stone that the
question Of its retention might
best be left with the people them
selves. We firmly believe that it is
only question of time when all o1
the. sixteen counties in the state now
operating under the law will vote
it down. This would be much bet
ter and more satisfactory solution
of the difficulty.
One thing to be regretted about the
governors veto is that his act spoils
all of the whereases and resolutions
adopted by the union labor conven
tions of the different townships con
demning the democratic party be
cause of the act of the legislature in
repeating the law. These will hav.
to be saved up and worked over OF
some other occasion We will worl
under the township organization Law
as at the present for several years
| to come.
