BE ON GUARD.

1t is absolutely necessary for every
Republican in the city today to be on
guard against falsehoods and roor-
backs of euery description. AS the
campaign of our Democratic friends
draws to close and their methods
come to light we are convinced that
they will hesitate at no form of trick
cry to win their fight.
Fraudulent letters have been written
by the dozen and by the hundred, some
of them anonymous and some with
forged signatures-all calculated to
create dissension in the Republican
ranks.
For weeks the Democratic managers
have been jubilantly predicting sur
prises for the Republicans, but each
surprise" has been promptly exposed
and has fallen fat. What new trick
to deceive the voters may have been
inaugurated by the time this reaches
our readers we are unable to state, but
il is safe to pronounce every Demo.
cratic scheme sprung at the last min
ute as fraud pure and simple Their
cause is desperate one, but by the
vigilance of Republicans and the 10y
atty of thinking citizens it will not
triumph.

UNION PACIFIC ROAD
Sold to the Reorganization Committee fo
S57,564,932.I6.

Sold to the Reorganization Committee for
S57,564,932.76.
OMAHA, Neb., Nov. 1.-The Union
Pacific road property, including the
building and all that goes to operate
the system, was Monday morning sold
to the reorganization committee for
S53, ,52S, 532.76 This amount does not
include the sinking fund in the hands
of the government, and taking this to
be S4, 03G, 400 the amount stated in the
government decree covering the sale OF
the road, the total paid for the proper.
ty was S57 ,564, ,932. rs.
There were no other bidders, and the
road went to the reorganization com.
mittee without any opposition.
The sale of the road was in itself
one of the most tame and uninteresting
performances posi- BILE to imagine.
The crowd, which was not over 500
all told, was packed so closely around
the doorway and mp in front of the
center of the bulletin that the members
of the reorganization committee, the
men who came out to buy the road,
were uneble to see anything or hear a
word of what was going on.

keeping these delicate and important or
gans in healthy condition is DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription
Thousands of women have testified to the
marvellous action of this remedy, More of
1t is sold than of all other medicines for the
same purpose combined. 1t acts directly
upon the organs involved. 1t restores their
health and vigor. 1t prepares woman for
the duties of motherhood. 1t insures the
health of baby. 1t makes its advent easy
and almost free from pain. Women who
use it do not experience the usual discom-
forts of the period of CESSATION. 1t is the
most marvellous medicine ever known for
wives and mothers. 1t is the preparation
of an eminent and skillful specialist, DR.. r.
V. Pierce, who has been for thirty years
chief consulting physician to the 1nvalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo,
N. Y. Women who wish to know more
about it should write him

Coppedge, of Elmo, Kaufman County, Texas.
She could not stand on her feet or get in any
position in which she did not suffer great pain
She was naturally strong woman I had
several physicians to treat her without any per-
manent relief She despaired of ever again be-
ing well. She saw advertisement of your
Favorte Prescription and spoke to me about
1t. got her bottle of the medicine which she
she had taken six bottles. Since taking the last
she has not suffered moment with the old
trouble. She has been we'll nearly twelve
months. The Favorite Prescription was all the
medicine she took. She Is in good health and
we are happy"

STATE CONFERENCE OF CHARITIES
AND CORRECTION.

The Ohio State Conference of Chari-
ties and Correctionsmet at Toledo last
Tuesday evening and continued in
session Wednesday and Thursday clos
ing that evening. Many subjects con-
cerning the charitable and correctional
| institutions OF the State were discussed
but none of more Importance than the
management of Childrens Homes and
the proper placing out of children.
Experts in this calling were present
and gave the conference the benefit of
their experience and no doubt many
delegates from new child saving insti-
tutions seeking the best methods were
greatly benefited. So in all other
branches; and take it altogether it was
the best and most largely attended
conference of the kind yet held in the
State.
Hon. M. d. Follett was elected Presi-
dent for the coming year, and $ j.
| Hathaway was chosen chairman of the
standing committee on Law and Legis-
latiou for the same period.
At the close of the conference the
following resolutions were submitted
by the committee on resolutions:
DEATH OF CATHARINE FAY EWING.
WHEREAS, During the past year
Catharine Fay Ewing, founder of
Childrens Homes in Ohio, has passed
away:
RESOLVED, That this Conference de-
sires to honor her memory by placing
on it's records this expression of pro.
found regard and appreciation of her
great work in saving homeless children.
The next conference will be held at
Mansfield, the home of that veteran
worker in charities and correctional
problems, General Roelif Brinkerhoff,
President of the. Board of State
Charities.
