Portland Argus: Surprise has been
expressed in some quarters that Jake
Morse should be chosen secretary of the
New England league after having been a
leading light in the suddenly bedimmed
opponent Of the organization. To those
VINO regard Mr.. Morse's selection as u
strange occurrence. we wish to say that it
was most natural one. Humanity nd
mires a fearless open antagonist, who
stands up and fights for his cause man
fashion. and about whose integrity there
is no doubt And that was why Jacob c.
Morse came ont of tie "latc unpleasant
ness with flying colors, although the
object to which he lent his superior ability
proved lost cause The New England
association was conceived as successor
t. the New England league and would
probably have been something of sue.
c3ss had the promoters been able to in q
duc9 al River TO come into the fold
But they were not and the result was
consequently as il was. Mr.. Morse was
not alone in the scheme at the beginning
but he was deserted when the outlook be
came less promising. Then an effort was
made to induce him TO abandon the pro
Jet. We have it from the committee of
one who visited Mr. Morse with the pro
position to give him the New England
league secrctaryship If he would drop out
of The other association, that the reply
was substantially Us follows: no. |
cannot acecpt the proposition. While |
realize that | have u hard job on my
hands and that it would be to my advan-
tage pecuniarily to accept your offer, |
have given my word to the men associated
with me that | will stand by them and
see the thing through. and I cannot 90
back on my word With characteristic
tenacity, Jake Morse was the last to leave
the wreck and when the project was
iinally abandoned he was poorer off in
pocket by considerable. But he enhanced
his reputation as a good fighter and a
man Of integrity, and when it became
known that his invaluable assistance
could again be secured for the New Eng
lanu league the chances for anybody else
being chosen secretary were nit No.
there Is no reason for any one to express
surprise that Mr. Morse was welcomed
into the New England league again, for
tne favor was conferred on the league.

Medical Discovery makes rich, red blood
It makes health in the right way. It works
according to the right theory, and in 20
years of practice, ii has proved that the
theory IS absolutely correct. 1t begins at
the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS by putting the stom-
ach, liver and bowels into perfect order but
it begins its good work on the blood before
it finishes with the digestive system. 1t
searches out disease germs wherever thew
may be and forces them out of the BODY
It promotes the copious secretion of tie
digestive fluids, and assists in throwing off
refuse matter. 1t makes the appetite good
and the digestion strong. II isn't violent
medicine. 1t isn't strong medicine II
does nothing but good TO every portion of
the body. 1t doesn't do harm in one place
while it is helping another place 1t is
meant to help the whole body and it does
help 1t. Whenever man feels himself fail
ing IN health, when he feels that he is get
ting old too fast, that his vitality is low, and
that he is losing flesh, he should waste no
