DANGER IN A CHANGE.

Business conditions should be let
alone; the American people should be
permitted to continue onward in the ex-
traordinary career marked out for
them without having their prosperity
imperiled by experiment or change.
Pennsylvania above all the other states
of the union should not hesitate at
this time. Let Pennsylvania, which
leads all the other states in the gen
eral prosperity of the country, also lead
in renewed evidence of devotion to
those great policies and principles
through which those splendid results
have been achieved"
Before the close of the meeting the
following resolutions were adopted,
after eulogizing President Roosevelt
and pledging support to the entire
Republican ticket:
I'VE commend our United States
Senators Hon. NJ. S. Quay and Hon.
Boies Penrose for the ability and
fidelity exercised in the discharge OF
the onerOus duties devolving upon
their responsible positions. And Sen
atOr Penrose is especially entitled to
the gratitude of the farmer and dairy
man for his championing the anti.
olelmargcrine bill, and carrying It TO
a successful enactment"

liberal scale and they are able and will
ing to pay good prices for the necesst-
ties and luXurieS of life; under such
conditions there is a good market for
all the farmer has to sell. When the
reverse is true, and workmen are idle,
or working scant time at cut wages,
they are forced to practice pinchlng
economy, and the farmer necessarily
loses a part of his market. The Amer
lean farmer is prosperous when we'll
paid workmen are carrying well-filled
dinner pals, a condition which al
ways accompanied Republican suprem-
acy.
LABOR NEVER so WELL OFF.
1T has been estimated by the presi-
dent of the American Federation Of
Labor that three million men were out
of employment during the free trade
period from 1898 to 1897, while the
wages of those employed had been con-
stantly forced down. In 1897 the same
president declared in his annual report
that no man in this country worthy and
willing to work need be out Of employ
ment. Labor in the United States was
never so we'll off as 1t Is today, never
so fully employed, never so well paid;
in fine, the most pessimistic free-trader
will not deny that.
This condition of the mass OF our
people is the foundation and the
frame work of our prosperity. 1t is
this great purchasing power of our
wage earners that is today keeping our
mills busy, our railroads running to
their very highest capacity, our farm
ers rewarded to the limit of their in
dustry, and our great army of clerical,
and mercantile workers
fully occupied with liberal recon-

Denver. April 2S.-The formal report

ITO His ENc6llency, James B. Orman,
Governor of Colorado:
'Sir-Upon your personal request,

Board of Charities and Correction and
made subseIent TO the filing of certain
charges against c. l.. Stonaker, which
charges We're accompanied by the atii-

members of our board. in conjunction
with the state board of pardons.
Two sessions We're held at the state
penitentiary ut Canon City, on Sunday
afternoon and evening, April 10, 1907,
at which twenty-five persons We're ex-
amined under oath.
Adjourned sessions of this inquiry
We're held in the Senate chamber at
the state capitol, on Wednesday after
noon and evening, April 10th, and on
Saturday evening, April 18Th. In all
forty persons We're examined, under

made to secure full and complete in

this case.
Although every opportunity was
publicly given to any person or persons
to appear during the sessions of the
joint boards TO present further charges
or statements rejecting upon the OFF,

that the charges preferred against him.

She Would Not be
Without 1t Now.

Neither would thousands of others. We
refer to Vogeler's Curative Compound it
does SO much good and seems to reach
every form of stomach trouble, that people
have found that it is the one true specific.
And what are stomach troubles? The easiest
answer is that three-quarters of all the dis
eases and ailments which affect US proceed
from one form or another of stomach
trouble.
Indigestion is one of the worst and most
prevalent forms, but Vogeler's Curative
Compound cures indigestion. Here is one
instance:
Mr.. w. Bowel, of "a, Priory Street, Win
chester, Col, writes: III wish to state that
my wife has been taking Vogeler's Curative
Compound for a long time, and it is the
only thing that has done her any real good
for indigestion, in fact nothing would induce
her to be without bottle now"
When We stop to seriously consider the
fact, that this great remedy is made from
the formula of one of the most eminent living
London physicians, it is no wonder that
people who have happily experienced the
benefit to be derived from its use, will not
now be without it at any cost.

for the first days procession. For the

Judge Clarke OF St. Louis has con-
victed and fined heavily number OF

which they found was made from
alum mixed with ground rock, and
dumped II into the river.
The Health Authorities are thus
taking effective means to prevent the
Introduction into our markets OF in
furious substitutes in place OF whole
some baking powders.
As alum costs only two cents a
pound. there is great temptation for
those manufacturers who make sub
stitutes and imitation goods. TO use
it. Alum baking powders can be de-
tected by the health authorities by
chemical analysis. but the ordinary
housekeeper, whose assistance In pro-
portant. cannot make chemical ex
animation. She may easily know the
alum powders. however, from the fact
that they are sold at from ten 70
twenty cents for a pound can. or
that some prize-like q spoon or
glass. or piece of crockery, or wooden
ware-is given with the powder as an
inducement
AS the people continue to realize the
Importance of this subject and con-
sumers insist on having baking pow
der of established name and charac-
ter, and as the health authorities con-
tinue their vigorous crusades, the
alum danger will, it is hoped. finally
be driven from our homes.
