PA. CIEMMER's SUCCESS.
Great Popularity of Plan to Sell Medi

a Cure

P. A. Clemmer, the enterprising
druggist, rather than await the ordi-
nary methods of Introduction, urged
the DR.. Howard Go. to secure a quick
sale for their celebrated specific for
the cure OF cons stipation and dyspepsia
by offering the regular SOC. bottle at
half-price.
So much talk has been caused by
this offer, and so many new friends
have been for the specific, that the
DR.. Howard Co. have authorized drug
gist P. A. Clemmer to continue this
special half-price sale for limited
time longer.
In addition to selling soc bottle of
DR.. Howard's specific for 25c., P. A
Clemmer has so much faith in the
remedy that he will refund the money
to anyone whom it does not cure.

SITUATION HAS #
D|REFUL ASPECT
Edward Orton Makes DoIefui
Prediction Concernins
the Coal Deposits
In Ohio.
tFrom a staT CORRESPONDENT,


Columbus, Jan. 26.-,According to
Professor Edward Orton, dean of tho
engineering department at the Ohio
State university, the coal situation In
Ohio has direful aspect. He says that
on account of the enormous consump-
tion of coal the coal fields Of this
state are slowly but surely becoming
exhausted and predicts that in time
Ohio will be dependent upon other
states for this kind of fuel. This con-
dition will lead to exorbitant prices OF
fuel, which in his belief, can only be
checked by limiting the powers and
profits OF private ownership by law.
State ownership OF mines he regards
somewhat impracticable as the owners
would demand ficticious considera-
ton for their interests which would
bun den the taxpayers with heavy
debt A well known authority on coal
matters residing in this city declared
Professor Orton's prediction to be well
founded and gave it as his opinion
that at the end of another half CEN
tury Ohio would no longer be re-
garded as coal producing state.

News and Comments
A Uood Criterion.


Statistics of railway earnings for
1902 not only reflect the country's
prosperity, but they indicate that
great expenditures have been made in
trying to keep pace with the expand
ed business
While gross earnings of 100 lines
increased $62 2,O00,0 900, the net earnings
show gain of only $S,000,000.
These roads earned in the aggre-
gate of 1884 900, 900, but used $675,000,-
600 for operating expenses, extensions
and new rolling stock.
In 1901 the gross earnings were
1919, 100000, and only $603,000O00 was
spent for operating and betterment.
These figures refer to only portion
of the country's railway mileage, but
they are thought to be fairly repre-
sentative.
They discredit the claim that the
roads are foolishly Indifferent to the
pressure Of freight, and are not suffl-
ciently energetic in their efforts to re-
lieve the congestion.
The fact that every car and locomo-
tive factory in the United States is
far behind with orders is another evil
dence that the railways desire an ade-
quate equipment.-East Liverpool

BonsaiI's Troubles.

Charles Bonsall, of Salem, was in

now to get the Worker printed
The Taitem Label company have been

that they can no longer do the work
There appears to be no other shop in

paper out of business. An effort is
being made to organize a cooperative
company to purchase plant and con-
tinue the publication.-Alliance Re-

by natural gas. were found in their
bedroom yesterday.
The two were fond of flowers and
kept small natural gas stove burn
Ing in their bedroom TO keep the flow-

low pressure of gas caused the flame to
go out at some time during the night.
The flow of gas continued, though, un-

The bombarding of fort San Carlos

The bombarding of fort San Carlos
by the German warships has created
stir all over the world, and espec-
Tally since in Germany it has been
given out that the attack was sane
toned and planned by the government.
Not only were a lot of Venezuelan sol
diers killed, but the little town adioin-
ing the fort was shelled and much
damage done. Reports from Washing
ton indicate that there is much indig-
nation manifested and it is possible
that congress will take some immedi-
ate steps TO demand an explanation.
The question of settling the differences
between Germany and Venezuela is in
a fair way to be settled by arbitration,
and why, for the sake of few mill
lions, any civilized country should
ruthlessly murder a lot of innocent
people, is beyond the comprehension of
any one who has yet expressed an
opinion publicly. IT is stated that the
situation in Washington is very grave
and that it would not take more than
n spark to break diplomatic relations.
There seems to be an impression that
Germany is aiming to make trouble
with United States.

Building Destroyed by Fire Yes!
terday 10 to be Rebuilt

Oberlin, O., Jan. 26.-The smoking
ruins of the college chapel, which was
destroyed by fire early Sunday morn
ing, attracted many people to the scene
of the disaster all day. 1t was gutted
from cellar to roof by the flames, and
only the bare walls are left standing,
blackened and cracked by the fierce
flames, is all that is left Of Oberlin's
most historic building.
The distractions OF the building
makes imperative the construction OF
a new chapel at once. The money for
this building is in trust, having been
given some years ago by Charles
Grandson Finney, Of Minneapolis, a
trustee of the college, and son CT
President Finney. The fund now
amounts to nearly $7s,300, but there
are such conditions attached that the
college is not able as yet to avail it.

Aside from the loss of the chapel.
and the consequent Inconvenience,
which may be partially alleviated by
the use of one of the local congrega-
tional churches, the college officers feel
their loss most keenly. There are Of
fers of places for temporary Offices,
but there is the greatest need for per-
manent fireproof headquarters, an ad-
ministration building pure and simple.
If funds can be obtained it is probable
that such a building would be con-
structed on the present site, which is
very centrally located.

Need Men Like Mitchell.

John Mitchell refuses to dabble in
politics but he and few others with
similar principles and abilities would
be the proper yeast in the United
States senate. In his address to the
mine workers national convention at
indianapolis Mr. Mitchell said regard
ing government by injuunction:
Government by injunction is one
of the most insiduous, harassing, and
dangerous methods resorted to by the
enemies of the workingmen to destroy
labor organization and TO circumvent
the constitutional right OF trial by
jury. The whole system of government
by Injunction grows from the distrust
of the ultra-capitalists for democratic
institutions.
"The reasons given for the issuing
of ipiunctions are always misleading
and generally false. So far as these
iniunctions are issued in labor cases
thoy are never issued excepting in
such cases as call for the exercise of
the criminal law.
Government by injunctions is not
orly hostile to organized labor. but is
hostile to constitutional liberty. II
the American people do not check this
arbitrary power, it will result in III
annibilation of labor unions, and then
OF all other forms of associations dis
liked by capitalists. s."-Lorain News
