Never in the history of medicine has the demand for one particular remedy for female diseases equalled that at tained by Lydia F. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and never during the lifetime of this wonderful medicine has the demand for it been so great as it is to-day.
 From the Atlantic to the Pacific, and throughout the length and breadth of this great continent come the glad tidings of woman's sufferings relieved by it, and thousands upon thousands of letters are pouring in from grateful women saying that it will and posi- lively does cure the worst forms of female complaints.
 Mrs. Pinkham invites all wo- men who are puzzled about their health to write her at Lynn, Mass, for advice. Such corre. spOndence is seen by women only, and nO charge is made.

Will Ask No Quarter.

The News articles on the col
lege question this week may be
deemed rough and of a decided
ly caustic flavor but it must be
remembered that the NewS's
helmsman is human and like all
other mortals has a limit to his
patience. The Baptist college
contract to which this town is Il
party is clear, plain and pointed;
it is susceptible of but one con
traction; this town has always
stood squarely by it and is now
ready and willing to perform
every condition incumbent upon
it by virtue of the same. The
News has not been slack in pub
fishing all of these things, and
has even went so far as to offer
a purse of $500 to any one who
will show that Canyon City has
"fallen down" in the least par
ticular and why in the face Of
all this, some people still persist
in this libelous charge against
the town can only be explained
on the grounds of malice. In
saying this the News does not
lose sight of the fact that many
people even in this part of the
state, a great many for that
matter, never see its pages, but
those who have been engaged
in this campaign of defamation
do, or can, if they so desire, and
it is against that class the arti-
cles mentioned are directed.
This course Of the News may
be unchristian, but it is human;
it is only fighting the devil with
fire. To tell the truth the par
ties against whom the News has
directed its guns in this issue
are only getting small frac-
ton Of what they truly deserve.
On the matter treated of the
News will ask no quarter.
Canyon City news. (Canyon City, Tex.) 1903-1908, 1903-10-23

through its college commission,
contracted with the people of
this town. 1t might not appear
so bad within itself were it not
for the fact that the men who
brought it about, Baten and
Whatley, were parties to this
contract with Canyon City
they being members of said com
mission.
And Rev. A. f. Baten, THE
professed friend of Canyon City!
He did it. Heit was that issued
the call for the meeting of DC.
tober which resulted in this
coming together at Amarillo on
the l6. The News has informa-
ton, reliable in every way, that
he issued the call without even
the knowledge of the board S
president. This would make
the meeting of the Is, oidable
any way, if not void, according
to the boards own rules, but
what cares Rev. Baten for that?
Nothing. The News might say
of him as was said of the great
Napoleon.-."H is a man whom
no contracts can Oindac-
knowledging no rule of action
save his own will"
Rev. Baten has had his way
so far on this Canadian PROPOSE
ton. With a full and complete
knowledge of this towns rights
in the premises he has constant,
ly and persistantly disregarded
them. trampled them ruthlessly
under foot. it only remains
to be seen whether or not his
course will be Endorsed, first by
the executive committee which
meets again the 9Th Sunday in
November, and next by the as
ISOLATION which Convenes in an
nual convention next summer.
The News regards this SO call
ed executive committee action
as strictly a Baten decision and
does not believe for a moment
that it will be upheld by either
a majority of said committee or
by the association. The com,
mittee may do it, but the asso
citation will not; it cannot afford
to put itself on record as against
the principles of common JUS
tice.
Yes, so far, with the possible
exception of Rev. Whatley, it is
Baten 5 work alone.

REV. BATEN'S WORK.

Five members of the Baptist
Association Board responded to
the call for special meeting to
be held at Amarillo, on the IS,
to- wit
Revs. w. l.. Skinner, A. E.
Baten, and j. W. Whatley and
brethren j. w. ST. Clair and
w. F. Fuqua.
The particular purpose of
this meeting was the considera
ton of what is now generally
known as the canadian propo-
sition." Admitted on all sides,
TO be one of the gravest prob.
lens that has ever confronted a
great religious organization in
this part of the state it was
meet that it should receive very
careful conSiderat ton at the
hands of this executive board.
To have this consideration 1t
was absolutely necessary that
each member of this board,
which consists of thirteen units,
should have due and timely no.
tice of the REAL object as well
as the time and place of meet
ing. The News has it, upon un-
doubted authority, that no such
notice was given, if any at all.
Even the Hereford member, Bro
Elder, was sublimely ignora Mt
that even meeting was to be
held. Now, whose fault was
this, if fault at all? TO this
question there can be but one
answer
Rev. A. E. Baten. 1t was in
the line of his duty as secretary.
He did it.
When the business of this
special meeting came up for
discussion Mr.. Fuqua, OF ANA
rillo, stated that the question to
be adjudicated was too weighty
to be passed upon by only five
members and that if persisted
in he should take no part. But,
Rev. A. e. Baten was ready and
so was j. W. Whatley. This
last named gentleman, as early
as August q, had fixed up this
very business, as he stated
then, with the proper authori.
ty, 1T was cut-and dried, so to
speak, it simply had to go
through-this college at Cana
dian must be indorsed by the
board regardless Of consequent
ces-Mr. Baten had so deter.
and it was done.
1t was accomplished in this
manner: Rev. Whatley moved
that the board elect trustees for
the Canadian college; Rev.
Baten seconded the motion and
when the question was put by
the president, Rev. Skinner, he,
Baten and Wnatley voted yea,
md st, Clair nay, Fuqua refus.
ng to vote at all, and so the
question was decidedly |
3aten.

committee, if such it can be |
allied, if permitted to stand, !

A LYING SPIRIT.

''Rev. j. W. Whatley returned
Tuesday night from Amarillo,
where he has been attending a
meeting of the executive board
of the Palo Duro Canyon asso
cation of the Baptist church,
Under the rules of the associa
ton il was decided that the
board had no authority to con
slider the college question at
this meeting, and a special
meeting has been called to con-
vene at Amarillo, October 10th
at 10 o clock 4, IN. to consider
the question of the Baptist
college at Canadian. Mr.. What
ley says that all the details will
be arranged at the next meeting
and work will begin here within
the next two or three weeks.
"From all reports it appears
that the Canyon City people
have fallen down on their propo-
sition and that the one at Cana.
dian will be the only Baptist
college in the Panhandle. -
Canadian Record.
The first part of the Record
article refers to a cut and. dried
deal--a dirty job-the sequel Of
which will be found in another
column.
That portion of the article
which refers to "the Canyon
City falling down on their
proposition" is either written
under circumstance amounting
TO a dense and almost criminal
ignorance OF all that has been
said and done concerning the
matter, or it was inspired by ex
press malice with intent to in.
iure the fair name of this town
and finally deprive it of what it
is under a II the ru los of reli UiOn
good morals, common honesty,
equity and law entitled to--the
location Of THE Baptist college.
Further answering, the News
would most respectfully say to
the Record, that the Devil-"the
father Of all liarS''---has surely
put a lying spirit into the
mouths of ALL your reporters.
