Eldora, Nov 3.-Charles Wilcox, a
we'll known man here, was arrested at
this place late Saturday by Sheriff
Williams, of Osceola, Charge county.
Wilcox is charged with forgery, but 1t
is believed here he is entirely innocent,
and that he has been imposed upon by
some one signing his name. Wilcox
was completely surprised and states he
has never been in Clarke county. He
is quite well known here and for the
past year or so has been agent for the
+. x. L. Remedy Company, of this city,
manufacturers of a stock food, and the
assumption here is that some agent of
the company has signed some mans
name to a contract in connection with
a sale and Wilcox has been arrested,
thinking he is the forger. but that an
other man is the guilty party. Wilcox
is a brother of w. B. Wilcox, former
sheriff of this county and now prom
inent insurance man at Des Moines.
Wilcox gave bonds for his appearance
at Osceola Nov. II.

Wsnen the stomach won't work the
whole body suffers as every tissue or
structure of the body depends ON the
stomach for nourishment and renew
al.
II the stomach is weak inactive and
unable to properly digest food it not
only subjects the body to a state of
chronic semi-starvation or habitually
half-fed condition that lweakens it and
renders it less productive of accomp-
lishment and less resistant to disease,
but it allows of the absorption of half
digested, rottins material that is a pos
tive poison tic it and taxes the elimi-
native organs to eXpel 1t from the body.
Thus it will be seen that the inconven-
fence and distress, the disturbed rest,
the horrors of insomnia, and the dread
full caprices of nightmare, are the most
insignificant part of Indigestion and
that real danger turks behind the con-
dition
Few people seem to realize the dam
gers OF weak, defective and disorder
ed digestion. Health reports do not
give 1t as cause of death because some
other disease sets in to work destruct-
i've changes, only made possible by the
imperfect digestion, and the death is
accredited to them.
There are many medicines on the
market intended to correct and improve
perverted or impaired digestion but
none are so safe, SO econocical, so con-
yenient, so effective, so satisfactory, so
popular as are Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's. Whether the dyspepsia is of long
standing or is only a case of tempo
rary indigestion, they give prompt and
pronounced relief. Their regular use
for time will cure all forms of gastric
insuf1iciency SO that good digestion
will wait on appetite and health on
both"
BY promoting perfect digestion all
tissues and structures are better fed
and take on healthful activity. the blood
becomes rich, the flesh sound and firm,
the nerves strong, the eyes bright, the
skin clear, the mind alert and cheerful,
and one begins to feel the lust of life
the joy of mere living.

FIdora. Nov. 3.-The democrats be-
coming discouraged at the political
outlook in the Third district have re-
sorted to the old tactics of eleventh
hour mud singing. A scurrilous dodg-
er was scattered broad cast at Iowa
Falls Saturday, and doubtless many OF
them will be formed at every voting
precinct in the county tomorrow.
Reeking with vicious and subtitle
falsehoods it seeks, ito create dlssatls-
faction and division among the repub-
Iicans of Hardin county" ITO win the
vote of q possible few disappointed
office seekers and sore head republi-
cans" and TO fasten upon Hon. Beu
Birdsall the republican candidate for
congress in the Third district the odl-
UNI of the voters of the county on &C
count of the alleged friendship OF Mr..
Birdsall for certain republicans OF the
county who were connected with GER
tain county legislation distastefui 10
a considerable number of the voters OF
the county.
For the first two objects Of the dodger
the democrats are excuseable, but for
the last there is not the shadow OF an
excuse Ben Birdsall is too well known
in Hardin county to need anyone 10
make excuses or denials for him. a
feeling of righteous indignation should
possess every honest voter and ne
should ana no doubt will express MS
unqualified disapproval of such Tam
many tactics. With the wiley old ex-
governor on the stump saying one thlng
to one community and another thing TO
another community, but all the time
saving things to please, and lavishly
using his hoard of money to furnish
roast OK and other edioles, to say moth
ing of turntables, TO the dear voters.
while his hired benchmen go over the
district to bewilder the voters, 1t only
needed the above dodger to open the
ewes of the voter and let him see the
desperate effort democracy with It's
tariff for revenue only and free trade
nonsense was making to get foot hold
again. The voters of Hardin county
can not be bought or befuddled. Com
mitteeman Tom Meader, after carefui
investigation, predicts republican
majority in the county for the entire
ticket OF about 1000. Ben Birdsall for
congress will run up with the tlcket.

Chicago, Nov. ST. think it would be
the worst political calamity that could
befall Iowa should my successor Judge
RirdsaI in the Third Iowa district be
defeated in next TUESDAYS election.
This statement was made by David b.
Henderson, speaker of the house of rep
resentatives, who arrived at chicago
Saturday from the east and learned
that statements had been published
claiming that he was opposed TO the
election of Judge Birdsali.
Continuing, Speaker Henderson said:
eThere is absolutely no foundation for
such a story. Did not the delegates who
nominated me last summer nominate
nv successor when resigned? These
delegates were all my friends and are
friends of Judge Birdsal. When Judge
Birdsall was nominated in my place
appealed to all my friends to do every
thing in their power to elect him. they
took me at my word and have worked
Just MS hard for Judge Birdsau as they
would have worked for me had re-
manned in the race. In order to let the
voters of Iowa know the truth in the
matter l have sent telegram to a
newspaper in Dubuque which truthfully
states my position in the matter"
Speaker Henderson's telegram fol-
lows:
Just learned that claims are made by
democratic journals that / am opposed
to the election of Judge Birdsall. This
is false, absolutely false. and is not only
unjust to Judge Birdsall but still more SO
to me and to my home and to my friends.
Judge Birdsall's county has ever been
true to me in convention and at the
coils appeal to my friends in every

election and to vote for him, which |
am coming home especially to do 1t is
for the interest of the district the state

| Clinton, Nov 3.-Three big damage
suits in which the plaintiffs ask for
a total of $50, 900 have been commenced
against the Chicago & Northwestern
Railway Company in the Clinton coun-
| ty district court:
| John Moran, by his next friend, Mar
| tin Moran, wants damages in the sum
of $4,000. In his petition the plaintiff
states that on September %, 1902, he
made arrangements to pay Conductor
Grant Morrison, in the employ of the de-
PENDANT company, for the transportation
of himself, Howard Rodman and w. r.
Wray, from Clinton to Ames, a valuable
which was accepted; that
the conductor pointed out to him the
car in which the plaintiff was riding
when the train was wrecked near
Bertram; further, that in the wreck
! of the train, the said John Morans
| leg was broken in two places, his
shoulder dislocated and his head and
body bruised. In consequence of which
injuries the sum of $4,000 is demanded
of the company.
II. E. Rodman and D. e. Wray, adj
ministrators of the estate of the late
Howard Rodman and w. r. Wray
who, it will be remembered, were kill
ed in the wreck near Bertram at which
time their companion. John Moran.
was injured, have also brought suit
against the Northwestern, each in the
sum of $4,000. Each plaintiff alleges
that the young man of whose estate
he is administrator, had made ar
rangements with Conductor Grant
Morrison to ride to Ames. and had
paid him valuable consideration for
the privilege, which was accepted; that
the train was wrecked near Bertram
and the killing of the young men re-.
suited. The three cases will come UP
for trial at the November term of the
Clinton district court.
