POLITICS BREWING.
Club Women Take Day OF and
Go to Long Beach.

Los Angeles, May Politics viii be
brewing all day for instead Of making
motions at business sessions the con-
vention was dismissed for a ccmpn-
menIary au-day excursion to Long
Beach, rendered the visitors by the local
biennial board.
The surprise OF the club women's
convention was the report OF the NOM
mating committee, as follows:
For president, Mrs. DENIES T. s. Dem
ison of New York.
First vice president, Mrs. Robert J.
Rurdette of California.
Second vice president Mrs. Emma
Fox of Michigan.
Recording secretary, Mrs. ". 7. Coad
of South Dakota.
The nominating committee of forty
women who were sworn to greater sec
recy than at any previous biennial, tried
to give out the impression this morning
that the report published was slightly
wrong. The information, which came
from three sources, is absolutely re-
liable as far as it goes.
The placing of Mrs. Burdette as first
vice president pleased a large majority
OF club women, 1t Is likewise the pre-
Vatling sentiment that the promotion Of
Mrs. Fox from recording secretary to
the second vice presidency Is mer1ted.
The nominating committee met at
O clock at the women's club house and
did not conclude their deliberations un-
til 1880, an intermission being arranged
for dinner. The utmost secrecy was OBJ
served, the doors and windows being
bolted, while q boy was placed outside
as guard. The committee was called to
order by Mrs. Fox as recording secre-
tary of the federation and when the
committee decided on permanent
chairman in Mrs Barnes of Kentucky.
Mrs. Fox excused herself The first
question considered was whether there
should be but one ticket.

all of them are forceful and masterfu
men of whom the nation has reason to

ed of Representatives from the printers

tives have made similar efforts IN other
states against non-union publishers and
in the fight in Kansas the rub comes
with the American Book company

tracts in Kansas has attracted the at
tention of the unions throughout the
country and the executive officers have
requested the Topeka and Kansas un-
ions to take action to prevent the LETT
ting Of any contracts to any but union
manufacturers,

have been addressed to the several
members Of the commission by the
unions. most Of the members Of the
commission have been visited person
ally by committees representing the
unions in the immediate vicinity of the
residence of each member of the COM
mission.
Fully fifty or more trades councils Of
the state have taken up the matter and
are assisting in the fight for the selec-
ton of union labor made books.
At the hearing before the commission
this afternoon the local committee re-
iterated the representations made pre-
Viously by the other committees to the
members individually. and enlarged
upon the arguments.
Attention was called to the numerous
acts OF the legislature directed to the
securing Of just compensation and fair
conditions for working people. Par
ticular reference was made to the eight

Wine Of Cardui is the only medicine

For q young girl it is the best remedy to
guide her over the shoals Of womanhcod by

the years OF mature. womanhood. Then
the change Of life need not be feared.
Thus Wine of Cardui is woman's best re-

Permanently Cures Sick and
Nervous Headaches that
Make Lite Miserable

Sick and nervous headaches are
amongst the worst ills of life. The
man of woman who is subject to head
ache at irregular. intervals, goes
through life bearing a load of misery
and Wretchedness that is terrible to
thi?Ak OF
t1eaua4Hes, rs rule, result from
disordered condition of the nervous
system. Mental excitement, loss of
sleep, bodily fatigue and disordered
digestion are exciting causes. When
tie brain becomes tired and debilitated.
the whole nervous system is weakened,
and headaches result. If the liver is
sluggish, the kidneys inactive and di-
gestion deranged, headaches invariably
follow. To cure and prevent head
ache, the nervous system must be
strengthened and vitalized. The most
persistent cases of headache, nervous
feebleness and sleeplessness are per-
manently cured by Paine's Celery Com
pound; it is the great reconstructor of
tl,e nervous system. Mrs. Henry
Westrick, st. Clair, Mich, tells of her
release from suffering as follows:
81 have been troubled with dyspepsia
and sick headache for a number of
years. About every week I would
have bad spell of sick headache, but
