There is more Catarrh in this section Of the
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the last few years was supposed to
be incurable. For great many years doctors
pronounced 1t q local disease and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced 1t in
durable. Science has proven Catarrh to be
constitutional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, O., Is the only constitutional cure on
the market. 1t Is taken internally In doses
from 10 drops to teaspoonful. 1t acts direct
iy on the blood and mucous surfaces OF the
system. They offer one hundred dollars for
any case 1t fails to cure. Send for circulars

A SIMPLE QUESTION.
Pine Bluff people Are Requested to
Honestly Answer This.

Is not the word of a representative
citizen of Pine Bluff more convincing
than the doubtful utterances of peo-
pie living everywhere else in the
Union? Read this:
G. II. Garfield, locomotive engineer
on the Cotton Belt route, running be
tween Pine Bluff and Texarkana, resi-
dence 1892 West Sixth avenue, says
II am pleased, more than pleased, that
an opportunity has been given me To
add my indorsation touching the mer-
its of Doan's Kidney Pills. Not only
did l suffer for years with dull pain
in my back, but annoyance from the
kidney secretions, accompanied the
former. If the joltlng and jarring OF
the engine was not the primary cause
of my trouble it certainly aggravated
it when deep-seated. Be that as it
may, spent great deal of money and
used lot of medicine without getting
any permanent results. When l saw
Doan's Kidney Pills advertised in St
Louis paper and recommended by peo-
pie living in that city. who had been
cured of symptoms similar to mine

treatment stopped that particular at

President Roosevelt said concisely
that while the big trusts would be
damaged somewhat by depriving them
of protective tariff, the smaller pro-
ducers and the wage earners would be
damaged as we'll. This is the exact
truth, but the President might have
gone further and have stated with
safety that the American workman is
too well satisfied with the present con-
dition of affairs to go back again to
the dark days of 1896 when free
trade prevailed.

Washington, j.. G., Sept 20. AM
other operation was performed Oh the
abscess on the left leg Of presidents
Roosevelt. IN the former operation q
simple needle was used to relieve the
trouble. but yesterday the surgeons
with a knife made an incision into the
small cavity. exposing the bone, which
was found to be slightly affected
The Presidents case has been pro-
crossing satisfactorily, but it is be-
lieved bv the physicians that the fur
/ Their operation made will hasten his
complete recovery.
They gave Che most positive assur-
ances that there is not the least cause
for alarm, and say that on the contra
ny there is every indication of speedy
recovery; that the area Of bone affect
ed is very slight. and will not result
in any impairment of the President s
limb, and that there is no evidence
whatever of any matter that would
produce blood poisoning.
| Dr. Shaffer, of New York, who long
has been acquainted with the Roose-
welt family, and who also is we'll
known bone specialist, joined the
Presidents physicians in their NOM
ing consultation. 1t was noticed that
there had been a slight rise in the
Presidents temperature and an in
crease in local sy mptoms. and the ply
sicians though his recovery would be
aided by making az incision TO drain
the wound.
The operation was performed be-
tween 8 and O'Clock in the afternoon.
The President stood the pain very
well, and expressed his satisfaction at
the result, DR. Rixey. Surgeon Cen
eral Of the navy, performed the opera
ton, assisted BY DR. Lung. the Presi-

who also was present with the other
physicians, is the Surgeon General of
the army. Dr. Edward r. Stitt. an
other of those present. is in charge Of
the Naval Museum of Hygiene and
Medical School.
The phvsieins took q roseate view
of the President prospects for getting
out again. He has become somewha
FESTIVE because of his close confine-
ment. and the physicians are consider
ing the ACCESSIBILITY of permitting him
to take a ride i'll a few days.
DR.. Shaffer called at the temporary
White House for a social visit and
found the President i'll the best OF spir

again saw the President. This, how
ever, he said was entirely of his W, Z
choice. as preferred not to travel dur

DR.. Shaffer, while he declined 10
discuss generally the Presidents case,
authorized the most positive statement
that there need be not the slightest
cause for anxiety or alarm regarding

The only Federal law ever passed
for the regulation of trusts was passed
by Republican Congress. Don't over
look that fact. The Democrats subse-
uuently had control of Congress, as
we'll as of the Presidency, bu t not
only did they fail to pass antitrust
laws through their Congress, but their
President ana ACKNOWLEDGEMENT failed
to execute the laws that actually were
ON the statute books, placed there by a
Republican Congress.
When Democrats talk about the great
things the Democratic party would dc
against the trusts, just spring that rec
ord on them.
