FRIDAYS SESSION.

Today, the second of the annual
convention of the miners of district
No. 10, was characterized by short
session, on account of the inability of
some of the committees to make
their reports to the convention.
President Reese called the meeting to
order shortly after 9 o'clock this morn
ing, and introduced James Boston, OF
Sparta, Illinois, member from Illi-
nois, of the executive board of the
national organization, United Mine
Workers of America. Mr.. Boston
made a short but very interesting
speech to the convention. He is a
practical talker, is a true champion OF
the laboring man. and has the happy
faculty of finding something good In
everything His address was very
well received by the delegates, and 1t
was comprehensive analysis OF the
position of the union miners. their eX-
periences during the past few years,
their progress and their prospects. He
spoke in part as follows:

the conditions of yourselves and O
others. am glad to see that Iowa !:
right in line and is doing her whole
share to improve the conditions of thu
1 laboring man and of his family.
History of the Organization.
'The history of the organized labol
movement is very interesting. There
was a time when the local organiza
! ton was useful. There was a tim,
when local organizations were all tina

changed. First there came a tim
when it was found practical to organ

road facilities became more powerful!
the time came when it was better t

THE BANQUET.
Enjoyable Evening Spent by Visiting
Miner Delegates.

The miners of district No. 13 were
enabled to experience a specimen of
Ottumwa's hospitality last evening.
when they We're royalty entertained at
Turner hall by the entertainment
committee appointed by the various
labor organizations of the city. All
convention cares were thrown aside
and the evening was given over to
social enjoyment. and that the enter
tainment was success is testified to
by every visiting miner in the city, as
well as by the invited guests of honor
who were present. The entire even
ing was spent in an informal manner.
Capital and labor We're brought togeth-
er in the truest sense of the express
i sion, and the matters of organized la
Dor and it's benefits were discussed
by men in various walks of life, rang
| ing from the coal miner to the law
maker and the capitalist. All were
| enabled to talk upon a common basis,
as man to man.
Benefits of the Affair.
The benefits of the evenings enter
tainment will be felt long after the
miners have returned to their homes
latter having finished the work of the
convention and completed the arduous
duties relative to the adoption of a
scale. The benefits of such affairs as
5. the one which was carried out last ev-
tening are benefits which tend to the
Improving of society. and to develop
ing the interests which one man
should feel for all other men, howev-
or far distant may be their spheres OF
\ usefulness At last evenings banquet
some of the influential men of this
city learned facts concerning the min
ters, the truth of which they had never
before known, and the speeches made
by the representatives of the miners
4 last evening may be of much value in
Installing into the public mind the real
Iization that the trades unions are not
organized wholly for the interests OF
THE lahoring men, but that they are
also of benefit TO the employer of la
lbor.
4 1t is such informal conferences as
this one which serve to give to the
Ottumwa semi-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1899-1903, 1901-02-26

lions as board have been pleasant,

harmony with each other for the ad-
vancement of our cause.

TO CURE THE GRIP.
Advice Of a FamousPhysicia
First and foremost, REST.

5F1rSU anu lOT6IuOSI, hfIS l..
Take care of yourself Your al
ready weakened nerves want rest,
and must have it. If the attack is Sc
we're, go to bed and remain there.
More fatalities result from neglect of
this precaution than from any other
cause.
Eat sparingly. Your digestive or
gans are in no condition to take care
of large quantities of food.
Drink plenty Of pure, cold water. 1t
allays the fever, stimulates the kid
neys to action and opens Mp the pores
of the skin. Keep the bowels open
with DR.. Miles Nerve and Liver Pills.
Take three doses of DR.. Miles Ner.
vine per day, and if you cannot sleep
take an extra dose at bed time. To
further control the fever, and to over
come the peculiar aches and pains OF
grip, use DR.. Miles Pain Pills. They
act quickly and effectually, and nc
bad effects result from their use
These remedies have been thoroly
tested more than million times, and
their efficiency is thoroly established
They never fail to give relief.
Dir. Miles remedies can be found
at any drug store, and they are sold
on positive guarantee that first bot

BLOOD

We live by our blood, and
on it. We thrive or starve, as.
our blood is rich or poor.
There is nothing else to live
on or by.
When strength is full and
spirits high, we are being re-
freshed, bone muscle and brain,
in body and mind, with con-
tinual flow Of rich blood.
This is health.
When weak, in low spirits,
no cheer, no spring, when rest
is not rest and sleep is not
sleep, we are Starved; our blood
is poor; there is little nutri-
ment in it.
Back Of the blood, is food,
to keep the blood rich. When
it fails, take SCOTS emulsion
Of cod-liver oil. It sets the
whole body going again-man
woman and child.
Well send you littleto try, if you like.
