Senator Teller was the next speaker, and
alluded to the unlimited abuse for his al
legged violation Of the Constitution by the
newspapers of that day The critics de-
clared the country within the purchase

made the most gigantic and profitable trade

the devil took the Savior of mankind up to

Him the domain of the world to fall down

the history of this continent. perhaps of

lady went TO famous New York
matchmaker the other day and said her
watch had broken down. The watch
maker opened the watch, adjusted his
eye-glass and carefully examined the
works. He smiled as he shut the case,
wound the watch, set it, and handed it
back to its owner.
Why, what was wrong?" she asked.
What did you do?" as vita the watch
at her ear, she listened in pleased sur
prise to its regular beat. 1T was just
run down, and l wound il up, that was
all" answered the matchmaker.
There is all the difference in the
world between being broken down and
run down. But it usually takes the
skill of the specialist to determine the
difference.
There are thousands of women, Just
in the condition of that watch. They
are all run down, but they make the
mistake of thinking that they are bro
ken down, and their condition is often
aggravated by their fears 1t often hap
pens however that the complex symp-
tom of feminine diseases appear in the
patients judgment just as critical as
the stopped watch. 1t is simply a run
down condition and this run down
condition in woman means that the
vital forces are about exhausted. The
woman, unable to care for the fam
lily or attend to her household duties is
as incapable of play as she is of work,
is in constant pain. and feels that life is
about to end and that she is completely
broken down Many thousands of Just
such women have come to DR.. r. ".
Pierce, chief consulting physician Of the
Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute,
Buffalo. n. Y. DR.. Pierce is a specialist
in the diseases of women, and his more
than 80 years experience has enabled
him to say TO many a suffering woman;
You are not broken down. You are
just run down. Your whole life will
run on again in its divinely appointed
way, when the main spring which dom
mates it. is once more regulated and
enabled to exercise its inherent and
proper function"
The sufferings borne by women in
which men have no part or lot and of
the pains and pangs of which they are
ignorant. are chiefly related to those
organs which are distinctively feminine.
Thus the run down" condition of
woman can oft-times be traced to the
irregular periods which beginning in

sTEUBENVILLE INDUSTRIAL.


Steubenvine, O., Feb. 1S.-Since the Act
na-Standard has entered the combine,
many have been the queries as to what
effect the entering of combine would have
on the future of the mill, some being of
the opinion that in time the plant would
be closed down and other mills operated
A gentleman living in Mingo, who is fully
conversant with the situation, says that
the future for Mingo and the big plant
there is very bright, and this feeling is
bound to have its effect in booming real
estate there, just as soon as the people re-
alize the facts. He said the shape the
mill was in three years ago with an old,
out-of-date plant, old-style boilers nearly
all machinery badly worn and all old
STYLES. if it was still in the same shape
he would not wonder if it would have
been closed down by the combine peop p
and other up-to-date plants operated. but
the Mingo plant has undergone a revoIu-
ton and nearly a million dollars has been
spent there in gigantic Improvements,
getting ready to compete in this age of
big industrial enterprises. Now at Mingo,
there is a new and complete modern, di-
rect process steel plant nearly ready for
service. Four complete new modern hot
blast stoves have been erected at the fur
naces. New and modern water tube boil
ers have been put in all departments.
There is a new continuous merchant mill
and new buildings equipped with electric
cranes. They viii start in with the ore
and coke and finish from the hot metal
into tin plate bars, without repeating and
they will have a market for the same with
the tin plate combine without any eX-
pense to the Mingo plant in hunting a
market The shipping facilities at Mingo
are better than at any other point in the
country. and this is an advantage that
will count in favor of the Mingo plant be-
ing operated. The blowing mill is to be
finished. and the continuous mill which
was damaged by fire is to be put in shape
again All contracts in vogue for i'm
provements will be carried out, but no
more contracts will be entered into by the
combine until some time after it takes
hold Two new additional furnaces will
be erected and several finishing mills are
TO be built 1t is given out that it is ex-
pected that the steel plant at Mingo will
turn out Loco tons every twelve hours.

non -unionists
The committee appointed to draft 8
new constitution and bylaws for The
Central Federation Union of New York,
reported by reading the draft thar it
had proposed. 1t was decided to dis
cuss it at the next meeting. The pre-
amble started off with a plank that,
inasmuch as labor produces ell wealth.
the workingmen were entitled TO the
full product Of their toll. All dele
gates to the organization must be
members OF bona f1de labor ogganiZa-
lions and wage earners. The union is
to hold itself in readiness to arbitrate
all labor disputes and to take charge
of boycotts that it approves of. Fur
Their, the union is to send representa-
tives to attend meetings of the NUM-
cipal Council and at all hearings be-
fore its various committees in the in
terests of working people and to watch
the proceedings. The preamble cCl
tinued that all privileged classes have
used the police and the militia to over
awe the working people and to put
down strikes. The emancipation of the
working people, therefore, could only
be brought about by themselves. They

and of the payment of equal wages for
equal work by men and women. 1t
also declares that the Federated Union
is in favor Of the abolition of capital
punishment and in favor Of the sanitary
inspection of mines, taxation of land
values, and the abolition of child labor
In national matters, the constitution
declared that the union was in favor OF
the substitution Of legal tender treas
ury promissory notes for national bank
notes. 1t favored the prohibition of an
alien ownership of land, and declared
that the President and Vice President
