IS 1T RIGHT
For an Editor to Recommend Pat
emit Medicines?

From Sylvan Valley News, Brevard. y c.
1t may be a question whether the
editor OF a newspaper has the right
to publicly recommend any Of the
various proprietary medicines which
flood the market, yet as a preventive
OF suffering we feel it a duty to say a
good word for Chamberlain's Collie.
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. We.
have known and used this medicine
in our family for twenty years and
have always found 1t reliable. In
many cases a dose Of this remedy
would save hours of suffering while
a physician Is awaited. We do not
believe in depending implicitly or
any medicine for a cure, but we do
believe that II a bottle Of Chamber
lain's Diarrhoea Remedy were kept
on hand and administered at the in
ception of an attack much suffering
might be avoided and in very many
cases the presence OF a physician
would not be required. At least this
has been our experience during the
past twenty years. For sale by all
druggists.

same were maliciously published con-
corning plaintiff by defendant, with
the intent and for the purpose of in
luring the plaintiff in his good name
and reputation, to- tie plaintiffs
damage in the sum Of $50, 900.
Wherefore, plaintiff prays judg-
ment against the defendant for the
sum of $4,000 and for costs and dis
bursements Of suit"
DIR. WATSON swears that the allie
cations OF the complaint are. of his
own knowledge. true.
Arthur j. Shores and Ransom
Cooper are attorneys for the plaintiff.
The Tribune has been aware of the
story which found publication In the
Lawistown Democrat for many
weeks. Investigation not only failed
to reveal any foundation for Ii, or
any person who claimed to know Of
the truth of such story, but satisfied
the Tribune that none of the parties
chiefly concerned was eve cognizant
Of the existence Of such a story.
Therefore 1t expected to zee it die II
natural death and he buried, as such
stories deserve. The filing OF the suit
by DIR. WATSON yesterday takes the
whole matter into the courts, and
for this reason the Tribune does not
care just at this time to comment
further upon 1t.
After reciting the tenor Of the COM
plant the Great Falls correspondent
of the Anaconda Standard says:
1.-The newspaper men Of this city
knew there was not an atom of truth
in the story, and 1t Is q matter OF
common street talk that the story
was circulated with a motive deeper
than a mere attempt to blacken the
reputation of a man who has been
fearless In the pulpit at all times and
fully upright In his private life. That
motive, II it exists. is likely to be re-
vealed in the course Of the trial, and
that Ia what lends much importance
to the case. So far az Mr.. WATSON Is
concerned personally he undoubtedly
has NO fear of the effect the story
may have upon his friends and upon
those who have known him during
his long residence i'm this city, nor do
these people fear for i'm, either.
A.. j. Shores Is attorney for the
plaintiff. He was seen this afternoon
by the Standard representative, to
whom he stated that the matter
would have been attacked through q
suit for criminal libel, but that the
law for such trials enables n man
on the jury to hang up the whole
case. In the present instance he
feared tn t outside influence might
reach some one man on any jury
which might be empaneled.
