Probable Result Of the Labor Meeting at
Illinois Capital.
SrIINGFIELD, July "A conference Of
the industrial organizations of Illinois and
the State Federation of Labor called to
meet here for the purpose of discussing
the ACCESSIBILITY of forming a new politi cal
party resulted in about sixty-five dele
gates assembling in the senate chamber.
Nj. III. Madden, state president of the
Federation OF Labor, presided, and stated
that owing to over 100 delegates being
tiled up" at various points in the state by
the railroad strike, an adjournment would
be taken to today. Single tax club, FEEDER
ated Trades, Knights of Labor, American
Rilway Union and Socialists are repre-
scented by delegates.
Prominent delegates stated that the
leaders of federated trade assemblies are
endeavoring to bring about a combination
OF the various trades organizations, the
Farmers Alliances, Knights of Labor and
Socialists and Populists, forming one
party, but that the majority of the dele
gates will go to the convention with the
determination of capturing the same and
endorsing the Peoples party and platform.
There are 5000 of the Federation of
Labor and 100000 of the others combined,
which would bring into the Peoples party
143,O votes this fall

The Puzzle Solved

Perhaps no local disease has puz-
zled and baflied the medical profes-
sion more than nasal catarrh. While
not Immediately fatal, it was among
the most nauseous and disgusting
ills the flesh is heir to, and the rec
ords show very few or no cases of
radical cure of chronic catarrh by
any of the many modes of treatment
until the introduction of Ely's Cream
Balm few years ago. The success
of this preparation has been most
gratifying and surprising. No drug
gist Is without it.

HELP FOR ALL.
Summer Advantages-Com-
mence Now.

In all troubles of catarrhal or
bronchial nature, one months treat
ment in the summer is, as rule,
worth two in the winter. II is in the
summer that nature lends her aid to
the work of the physician. The even
temperature makes conditions spec
tally favorable for speedy cure.
The liability to catching cold is re-
duced TO the minimum. Time and
again have the physicians of the
Scott Medical Institute urged pa
tients in desperate stages of catarrh
TO wait until summer for treatment.
and they have never failed to urge
all who have any traces of this insid-
ious disease to embrace the opportu-
nifty which summer offers. and rid
themselves of il then. even when its
symptoms are less distressing than
usual.

WANTED TO GO HOME.
Ia Fact Ne Wouldn't Have HAD Any Objections
10 Dying.

A young man who resides in this city and
who has heretofore been accredited with
any amount of courage has had an expert
ence which, he frankly confesses, he has
not the courage to attempt to repeat.
lie recently had occasion to visit the
famous Island of Monhegan, which 10 reached
by sailing craft from Boo,hbsy Harbor.
The vessels name is the Effort and often
times in winter many trip is great effort.
Our young man found bis trip not only
an effort to keep alive but it required =
great effort on his part to decide to attempt
the return voyage and not spend the winter
on the Island.
He was sea.ick.
He was 90 seasick that on arrival At Mon
hogan he couldn't get out Of his berth and
wouldn't il he could, and the crew was OBJ
liged to tumble him bodily into boat and
take him ashore.
On being told to brace up and be would
feel better, he very impolitely told them
to 20 where the temperature more resem-
bled summer weather, and, on being re-
minded that every cloud has its silvery lin
ing, he said he didn't care, he wanted to 60
home.
The most of the time Of bis stay on the
island was spent in dreading the trip back
to Boothbay, but it was passed very COM
fortably, there being only occasionally an
attack Of that particular branch of seasick-
ness by which the fishes are always said to
profit.
He submits that he has NO desire to
repeat the trip in winter.

PLAIN FACTS
Which Didn't Appear IL the New

The New Age says with s'eveTy bill OBJ
Unable audited and allowed, and yet the
city treasurer has in cold cash ON Feb. lst,
es20l ST." Will the New Ago state how
much Of the bills allowed have been paid?
5000 Is small sum if $4,000 is to be
paid.
Certainly the roll Of accounts, $3467 81
allowed since Feb. l, had not been paid,
the interest and city bonds due this NORTH
and the school bills amounting to $4,000
more. not to mention salaries of city on
GERS, OF which more than S250O are unpaid,
sggregatiog $4,000 at least, all to be
pail, will make that $1,000 look ~ though
it had the grip. or the city treasurer will
have good grip II be can hold on to it and
pay the bills.

SIG ,4s5.73. Great Scott to get these Il
u.es the money due to schools, the Village
aud Williams districts, the unpaid interest
and city bonds, amounting to from Sls 200
to go. 900, are called unexpended. Ac-
cording to the New Ages manipulation Of
figures, it would have been better scheme
to have held on to the State tax few days
and had net unexpended balance Of $48,-
900, and it would have been just - near to
the truth.
The fact is many Of the appropriations
have been overdrawn, the auditors report to
Feb. Ist, which 10 fourished before Ire tax
payers, shows nearly 5000 overlrawn.
Why not print the auditors report and let
the taxpayers see the facts?
