VETERANS ORGANIZE
Inmates of the soldicrs' Home TnLe
Action Regarding the System of
Holding Pension Money.

A meeting of the veterans of the.
soldiers home, in Marshalltown, was
held in the chapel for the purpose of
taking some action regarding the pres
cnt system of retaining all over six
dollars month pension. This has
been question which has long caused
considerable dissatisfaction among the
veterans, and has led to more or less
trouble in the past. While the meet
ing and the action taken thereat were
not intended to be antagonistic to the
board of control, the fact that the
board in its last report suggested that
legislative action be taken in regard
to the matter was perhaps the reason.
Veteran Rens Hubert presided as
chairman, and M. I. Black as secre-
tary. The matter was discussed in all
its details, and it was finally decided
tn appoint a special committee to go
Ia Des Moines and meet with the
proper legislative committee for the
Purpose Of entering protest against
any act of the Legislature tending to
continue the present practice of with
holding all pension over six dollars
month. The personnel of this commit
tee is j. j Smith, John Laport and NJ.
T. Black. A permanent organization
wa also affected for the purpose of
continuing the warfare against the

SECRETARY CAGES BLUNDER.
Even the Republican Press Is Up In
Arms Over His Financial
Policy.

There can no longer be any doubt of
the fact that Mr.. Gage has irreparably
damaged the administration of which
he is part by his action in designat-
ing the National City bank of New
York as the general depository for rev.
enue collections.
The severity of the blow which he
has struck is best shown by the man
ner in which leading republican news
papers have received it. The Chicago
Tribune characterizes it as foolish"
and says:
IA policy of governmental interference
Lfn financial affairs for the benefit of
stock market spectators is not viewed
with favor by the public, 1t prefers that
the government should remain neutral.
This preference is shared by the Tribune.
1t believes it neither right nor expedient
for the government to attempt to bolster
up saggfng stock market by exhibiting
gross favoritism to a particular bank
1t is too big contract. The government
may be harmed more than the stock mar
ket is helped
The Journal, of the same city, says
Mr.. Gage has done the administration
more harm than any of it's enemies,
and the Inter Ocean follows:
Should Mr. Gage resolve to quit the
cabinet and the service of people which
spontaneously but firmly declines TO
regard him as a financial genius, no one
outside the diminishing mugwump coterie
would lament his departure: the repub-
lican party would fee! sense of relief,
and the nation would proceed upon its way
rejoicing"
The Philadelphia Press, of which the
postmaster general is the inspiration.
gets at the heart of the deposit deal
when it says that "If the privilege of
receiving these deposits is wanted, 1t
is because it is valuable; if it is val
liable, the privilege should be paid for,
whether it is held by one bank in one
city or by several banks in several cit
les" The Providence News approves
OF 'the storm of criticism" in which it
is Endorsed by the Baltimore Amer
lean, and the Milwaukee Sentinel de-
clares that the prejudice against
loanlng the public funds to banks at
present is too strong to be disregard
ed" Even the Boston Traveller feels
called upon to protest, and tie Ban
ger Commercial feels that sit is a gil
gantio job" Thus we might go on ill-
definitely in showing how MIR. Gage
has stepped off the line, and with pro.
tests from republican newspapers
against his acticn.-Atlanta Constitn

very nervous and uneasy and had heavy
pains in the back of her head and under
shoulder blades. By noon she was so bad
that she was almost delirious and it was then
that commenced giving her DR.. Miles
Nervine. She felt the effect of the medicine
inside Of an hour, and by evening she was
quieted SO that, after taking a full dose, she
retired and slept soundly all night. The
next morning she could not tell that she had
had the grip. This cure seems almost too
rapid to be true, but it is fact and
we think if she had taken the Nervine before
the attack it would never have come on.
Since then Che has taken eight bottles of

LaGrippe is fatal disease. 1t has
taken front rank before the dreaded
small pex, scarlet fever, diphtheria,
ETC., in that its fatalities outnumber
those Of all other forms Of disease.
During the seasons when the grip is
prevalent, every man, woman and
child is exposed to its awful ravages.
The atmosphere is everywhere thor
oughly impregnated with the deadly
germs. It is contagious as well as
infectious, and may be contracted by
one person from another or taken
into the system in myriads Of mi
crobes through inhalation. It strikes
straight to the very foundation upon
which life eusts-the nerves-and
tears asunder the vital framework
