Arraigns the Powers for Their Systematic
REORGANIZATION.
LONDON, April AT the banquet
given in his honor at the National Lib
eral club, Lord Kimberly, leader of the
Liberal party in the house of lords,
severely arraigned the powers for their
systematic procrastination in dealing
with the Greece Cretan affair. He
complained that every action was
taken too late to accomplish the end
designed.
THE sultan" he said, should be
required to move his troops from the
Island Of Crete %instanter, and, if he re.
fuses, then the powers ought to remove
them. The feeling in this country is
that the whole might Of Great Britain
should be used promptly and etfectually

Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser.
1t Is a handsomely illustrated volume of a
thousand pages, several chapters of which
are devoted to the reproductive physiology
of women. 1t is written in plain language,
and contains over three hundrcd i~llustra-
tions and colored plates. 1t is now offered,
paper bound, abS0iniclp free to any woman
who will send twenty-one cents in one-cent
stamps to cover the cost of mailing only to
DR.. K. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y. If hand
some, substantial, French cloth binding is
desired, send ten cents extra, thirty one
cents in all. A woman ought to know the
vital importance of health. She ought to
know that nothing can make her so miser-
able, or so useless in the world, as disease
and weakness of the organs distinctly femi-
nine. She ought to know that this disease
and weakness can be prevented and can be
cured by the use of DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription. There are three times in a
woman's life when this great remedy reaches
a woman when the woman becomes a
mother-and when the capacity for mother
hood ceases. At these times the import
ance of a perfectly healthy condition of her
system is of the greatest importance. The
Favorite Prescription is a purifying, cura-
tive, tonic, which works directly on one
set of organs, and on no other. 1t cures
when doctors fail, and it cures without
the humiliating examinations and local
treatment, SO invariably insisted upon by
physicians. 1t will cure any case Of so
called female complaint" 1t soothes the
nerves, makes the appetite and digestion
good, and brings ~restful, refreshing sleep.

TO get the present council to pay any
attention to his warbings. They know
where they are at. What do you
people down in the nowhere corner of
the town amount to anyhow You may
do to vote once In while but as you
never vote for the man that Is elected
that makes no difference whether you
vote or not. What is the matter with
our new mender of roads now? You
did not like the old one and when he
died we hunted up another. The last
one was selected on the coon dog sty yle lie
had tried everything else and failed
and on the coon dog rule he must be
g00d mender of roads. Did he not dig
off the street near you and then fill il up
again with sand from his own place
just as high as 1t was In the first place?
And don't that prove that he has tho
sand? There IL anot or thing that you
don't give the street committee credit
for. You know that they graveled
Plumb street clear of the low water
mark at the railroad bridge anu you
ought 10 give them credit for that The
street is used so much. And Michigan
street Is one of the incest In the whole
country during drought } Then there
was the hole that was made to till up
Plumb street they took the gravel of
South street to fill the whole and then
took the sand from the land OF the street
commissioner to replace the gravel and
hauled gravel from Logan's 10 till the
hole where The sand came from bat the
hole at Logans has not been filled yet.
The story that you started short
time ago tnat Hoham's ducks got
swamped on South street was hunted
down by the committee and found to
be free silver fake They all got
home safe and neither is it true that
they had TO get TO the railroad in order
to get IN. If The streets were paved
with gold you would be kicking and
want it Iaked off and paved with silver.

Merit Has Won

The Daily Independent yesterday con
tains more than eighty lines Of local
advertisements and twenty-five Ply
mouth merchants in its display col
umns. SO far under the present man
agement the Independent has never
boasted OF its superior merits as an ad-
verifying medium. The policy has
been to saw wood and permit its work
to speak for itself. We point with
pride to the patronage that has been ac-
corded it, conscious at the same time,
that 1T has won on It's merits.
One of our first objects was TO Sc
cure every newspaper reader as reader
OF the Independent as nearly as was in
our power to do so. To retain them as
readers, we have sought to impress the
public with the fact that the Independ-
ent has superior claims for patronage.
To accomplish this we have not relied
so much upon the amount of local mat
ter served as we have been choice in the
selection of what is "put into type" We
have catered to the general public and
not TO the individual. We consider it an
erroneous idea that newspaper is built
up on the theory of "gettlng peoples
names into print"
Anything of personal nature is
considered secondary not primary.
After having secured the readers, the
prestege of the publication takes care of
itself as we are reconvInced by experience
and the patronage In natural sequence
With the advertisers of the best busi-
ness concerns in its columns today and
so many here represented, the manage
ment is convinced that Its theory of
newspaper building has not been in error
In the least. Furthermore we have
been mindful of the char acter of the
Independent believing that a newspa-
per as we'll as an individual must have
character to succeed.
With these fundamentals to guide us
we shall as in the past continue to mer
it the leading prestige that is now ac-
corded the Independent.
