suits. My wife has suffered with her
back and kidneys, and l bought any
number of remedies for her but none of
them did her any good until I procured
Doans Kidney Pills from Bobbitt- Wynne
Drug Co.'S store. They acted imme-
diately on the parts effected and appear
to have cured her. It may retuIr but
she has not complained of having any
pain in her back since using the pills and
it is to them that she attributes her
cure"

The Journal does not wish to
pose as an obstructionist in the
matter of the Meramec bridge pro

would be glad to see this bridge
built, but we take into considera'
ton the fact that as the project
now shapes itself it takes between
$500 and 5000 from the revenue'
this county to be expended in an
other county, and the benefits Of
this expenditure will be chiefly ae

may be that the proposed location
of the bridge is the most feasible

remains, nevertheless, If it shoole

SNAP JUDGMENT in FAVOR OF SALOONS
War Against Saloons In Potos Results in Victory For tn
Saloons Through Favor Of the County Court.

A determined, but Intellectual,
fight was made before the county
court here last week against the
granting of dramshop licences to
two saloons in Potosi, by the anti
saloon element under the direc-
ton of Rev. H. Whitehead, the
allegation of the antis being that
the petitions upon which the IL
censes were asked did not contain
a legal majority of the taxpayers.
Both sides had counsel employed
and the case occupied the court al
most entirely for three days, and the
petitions were pruned of their IL
Irregularities until it began to look
like the ants were coming down
tho homcstretch winners.
A majority of the court evident
ly had a leaning toward the saloons,
for the latter were given the bene-
fit of the doubt where it could be
done without showing rank bias.
The judges finally decided that as
so much of their time was being
taken up in the fight someone other
than the taxpayers should stand
the cost, though there is no law to
sustain such proceeding. 1t is
not strange, then, in view Of the
courts leaning, that the antis

Now For DoCkery.

And now for a speech from His
Excellency, Gov. Dockery, as to
the extent of boodling-that is tc
to say, corruption in the General
Assembly of Missouri-as to its
being confined to the city of St.
Louis; also as to the fact "that it
has cost the people of Missouri
nothing" Nay, he might improve
his former deliverance by adducing
incontestlble evidence that the
Practice brings money into the
state-no less than ten thousand
dollars Gncluding fees of transmits
sion having been shipped by one
twenty million-dollar trust merely
to retain a beneficial law upon the
statute books, that secures to that
trust monopoly of the market for
baking powder throughout the en-
tire length and breadth of the
State. That this tlust sent the
money into the State, not for its
own health, but from the anxiety
which it felt for the health of the
people of Missouri, can be estab-
lished by the evidence of the ex-
president Of the former health So
ciety.-State Republican.
