All phases of catarrh, acute or chronic,

1t is through its operation upon the ner-

Mr.. Jas. o. NORM, 1179 Ontario street

Peruna is certainly a great catarrh
remedy. 1t cured me of catarrh of the
head and I gladly indorse it. Canadians
are peculiarly afflicted with this disease
and for years the doctors have tried to
overcome it with eliXirs, powders and
pills, but Peruna has solved the question
and since the medicine has been estab-
lished here hundreds of people have
been cured of catarrh." Jas. O. Norm.

MAY DARKEN CHICAGO
THREATS OF PRESIDENT YOUNG, OF
THE TRANSFERS UNION.
Says He Will shut on the Edison
COmpany's Supplies III 1t Furnishes
Power to the kellogg Plant.

CHICAGO, July 16.-When efforts of the
striking teamsters and their sympathzers
failed to-day to prevent the delivery of
freight from the kellogg Switchboard and
Supply Company to the railroad warehouse.
President Albert Young. of the teamsters
national union, declared he would darken
the city unless the strike was settled. He
announced that he would visit the Chicago
Edison Company tomorrow morning and
demand that it shut off the power at the
Kellogg plant. Should he receive a refusal
he declared that he would shut off all the
Edison company's supplies and force the
company to shut down. In making this
threat he insisted that he had the support
of the tugmen who deliver coal to the COM
pany, and that all these would be called out
if the company attempted to get supply Of
fuel by the river.
Unique preparations were made for re-
moval of freight from the kellogg plant
early to-day. The truck was ordered to
start under police guard. with sealed or
ders, and the driver given a note INSTRUCT
ing him where TO take the freight but was
ordered not TO open the note until after the
start. Only two of the officials of the COM
pany were advised where the wagon was
TO go. A crowd of pickets and strikers had
gathered near the plant, and squads of uni
FORMED police, city detectives in plain
clothes and private detectives assembled
at the plant when the start was made
The crowd surrounding the factory in
creased until more than 1900 persons had
gathered, the greater number of whom were
strikers and strike sympathizers, intent
upon preventing the moving of freight from
the factory TO the depots. The blockade OF
the street adjacent TO the factory became
SO serious that Police Ispector Shea was
applied to for additional aid in dispeliing
the moo. Fifty policemen Charged into the
crowd, which they routed by free use Of
their clubs. The saloons and gathering
places of the neighborhood were cleared in
like manner. The rioting was general
One policeman was struck in the back with
a brick and seriously injured. Several other
policemen were slightly injured.
Tonight mob gathered around the fac
tory of the Kellogg company, at Congress
and Greene streets, and attempted to wreck
the building. Many of the windows were
smashed and damage amounting 10 5000
was done to the plant before the crowd was
dispersed by the police.

THE CITIZEN sOLDIERY.

The Socialist vote of 1900 in Evansville
at the last election explains very clearly
the astounding demand made by labor
unions of the city for the discharge of
members of the militia from their individual
employments, but il cannot explain the
cowardly action of certain employers that
have submitted to the dictation of this
element. Do they understand for a
moment what encouragement of this sort
of spirit means? Do even the misguided
Socialists that seek to hound these guards
men down and deprive them of the right to
work because they did their sworn duty to
their country and their State understand
what it means?
The militia, the citizen soldiery. is the
one institution that stands between a free.
self-governing people and military despot-
ism. The regular soldier, either at home
or abroad, does not differ much now in
spirit, in moral and political training from
his predecessors back through the ages.
He IS trained to obey without question the
commands Of his superiors. All people and
all things that oppose these commands look
alike to him; they are barriers to be swept
away. 1t is not his province to ask why.
to seek to know whether the commands
he obeys are in the interests of freedom or
of despctism. Contrast this man and his
purposes with the citizen soldier, the
militiaman. The latter is one of the peo-
pie. Practically every day of the year he
is engaged in the same daily work as other
citizens Of the Republic. He is voter
and has views on political questions. He
occasionally responds to the call for mill
tary duty for few days. but when this
is the equipment of the soldier is
laid aside and he is again the ordinary
everyday citizen. The authority him
is centralized only in time of war, when
he volunteers for service under the ma
tional authorities: at all other times he is
subject to the orders of the Governor of
his State, who never has at his command
force enough to endanger the liberties of
the Nation.
That military strength Is essential to the
out 1t this Republic cannot live. 1t is SIM
ply the alternative between a well-organ-
ICED militia and standing army big enough
to fight the battles of the Nation, and. by
the same token. big enough to
overawe the Nation and throttle the
liberties of the people. if it should ever
occur to a President that he desired to be-
come an emperor. And. If the militia were
to be made imyossibility on account Of
such boycotting methods as have been pur-
sued at Evansville, the large standing army
would follow as surely as night follows
day.
mand for the discharge of militiamen from
their employment and the employers that
accede to it are either utterly ignorant of
or utterly opposed to our free institutions

The gentlemen who have undertaken to
secure local endowment fund for the Ma
tional Technical Institute in this city seem
TO have adopted a good plan: While the
permanent endowment will receive material
contributions from outside it is important
that 1t should have liberal support from
Indiana. To obtain this it is proposed to
canvass the State by counties for SUBJ
scriptions to establish scholarships. and it
is believed several hundred thousand dol
lars can be secured in this way. The OBJ
ject is one that should appeal to the friends
of education everywhere
