Should Have the Support of
the People,

There have been a number Of our
people who, when approached by mem
bers of Ajax Hose company for con.
tribution for uniforms to be worn at
the Southwestern Firemens tourna.
ment at Fort Smith, opposed the outlay
for such uniforms, saying that citizen 8
clothes would be good enough for the
occasion. We beg to differ from them.
We want to have our firemen show up
rs well rs any company there, and 80
will those who oppose the outlay if they
attend the tournament The position
Of fireman is thankless job at best,
and when there is chance or the boys
to have little recreation the men
whose property they are at all hours Of
the day or night ready to defend against
the fire demon should not hesitate in
making up the slight contribution asked
of them. Give the fire boys your moral
and financial support. They deserve it.

The action of the Secretary of War
in censuring Gen. Miles in so harsh
a manner is not being very we'll re-
ceived by the country. 1t is under
stood that the President authorized the
punishment. In this connection it is
stated as fact that the President
talked roughly to Gen. Miles in the
presence of number of people. The
story is that on Saturday last Gen.
Miles went to the White House, and as
he entered the room where the Presi-
dent was the latter turned upon him
and exclaimed: Your conduct is
worthy of censure, sir. You had no
business to express an opinion, and 1
am surprised that a man of your ex-
perience and military training should
be guilty of such a gross breach of
discipline" The point is made that the
Presidents record as a soldier is not
so free from breaches of discipline that
he was justified in administering a re-
buke to Gen. Miles at all, but it was
certainly out of place for him to attack
Gen. Miles in the presence of half a
dozen or more visitors. 1t is to be
hoped that the story is exaggerated.

A TRUST THAT FAILED.

Mr.. Schwab. the president of the
United States Steel Corporation, said,
at the labor conference the other day,
that all trusts were bound TO fail. be-
cause they aimed to keep up prices by
cutting off competition and limiting
production.
That there was truth in what he said
seems to be borne out by the failure
of the Amalgamated Copper Company
to maintain the price of copper at II
cents a pound. 1t aimed to make that
amount the price. and to force the in
day the price of copper is much below
that, and the Amalgamated Copper
Company was forced, on last dividend
day, to greatly reduce it's dividend.
AS a matter of fact. just as soon as a
trust makes big profits by reducing
production it is pretty certain to come
to grief. 1t was thought that it was
the purpose of the United States Steel
Corporation to destroy competition, and
make the price of steel to suit itself,
but, according to what Mr.. Schwab
says, such is not the case. If it ever
had such a purpose it quickly saw that
it could not make it effective. There are
several other great steel-making corpor-
atoms. and they would not consent to
the dictation Of the billion-do cor
poFation. Trusts are not going to have
everything their own way in this coun-
try yet awhile

Sedentary habits cause kidney troubles.
People who are obliged to sit all day long,
stenographers, telephone and telegraph
operators, SeamStresseS, milliners, shoe
makers, tailorS, book keepers, clerks who
stand over a counter, engineers, firemen,
conductors, brakemen, and Others on
steam and electric railroads, are all more
~or less affected with disease in the kid
neys. Long hours in sitting posture
cramps the kidneys, bowels and other
organs in the pelvic regions. You viii
find that nearly everyone of these peo-
pie has constipation, and great many
more of them have kidney troubles and
don't know it. Often incipient Bright'S
disease will fasten itself upon person
and the only indication of anything
wrong that the Iayman can discern is a
slight aching or tired feeling across the
small of the back. This goes unheeded
because it in Itself is apparently of no
great consequence. Let the knowing
physician examine the water, when these
SYMPTOMS are manifest, and he'll find a
clouded. discolo:e ed, albuminous fluid
that tells as plainly as a picture that
inside of these delicate and important or
gans there exists a condition of disease
such as to need qu4cE and powerful treat
ment in order to preserve them from decay
and save the life of the owner Always be
onyour guard forthe slightest pain orsore-
ness across the back. Don't let it 60 I'M
needed for at that very instant your kid
neys may be in an awful condition. When
healthy they perform an important func-
ton, that of filtering and purifying the
liquids that pass into your system. They
do it so carefully too that not the most
infinitesimal speck of foreign or disease
breeding matter can get into the vitals
of the body. While they are healthy,
they do more toward keeping you well
than any other organ of the whole anat-
omy. When they are impoverished and
weak, unable to stand as the barrier
against disease, it's like throwing down
the protecting walls and picket lines of a
great city and letting the enemy, unin-
terrupted, walk in. Think of these prec-
ious organs becoming enfeebled through
want of nourishmenJ. Think of them
instead of being plump, vigorous, heal
thy, of being thin, lifeless, almost blood
less, eaten full of holes and secretion, a
pus that would makeyou hold your nose,
could you see it. Think of them in their
struggling attempt to obey nature, pour
ing this filthy and disgusting mass into
your lungs, heart and everywhere over
the body, on account of their inability to
eject it through the proper channels and
out of the system.
Does this appear to you as being health
full? Yet you, though not suspecting it,
may be in this very position. If you
have running sore on your arm, you
would battle it carefully with warm
water to cleanse it, then tenderly cover
it with some healing lotion. This much
to protect it from the poisons in the air,
and to assist your internal medicines to
act more thoroughly. Your kidneys
need washing as much as your arm. You
need to flush out that puS and secretion
and assist nature to restore healthy ac-
tion. You need something known to go
direct to your kidneys through the blood
and that has a healthy effect. "Blood
