An audience that almost filled the

Dr.. Williamson swears.

Yorktown, Ark, Jan. 1S.-Last week
a statement was published from Le-
land Williamson, NJ. D., of this place,
to the effect that Dodd's Kidney Pills
are the best medicine for all Kidney
Diseases and that he uses them with
uniform success in his daily practice.
No one who knows DR.. Williamson
will doubt for a moment the complete
truth of his fearless declaration, but
to completely clinch the matter in the
minds of those who may not have the
pleasure of a personal acquaintance
with this celebrated physician, DR..
Williamson has appeared before Mr..
H. E. Greene, J. P. for Montgomery
County, and made a sworn statement.
In this sworn statement the doctor
has cited a number of cases which
have been completely cured by Dodd's
Kidney Pills. Here is case No. L:

THE IsTHMIAN POLICY
Attitude OF The Government PIalnI.
Set Forth.
no STATE OF WAR NOW EXISTS.
Colombia Must Sooner or Later Recog-
nize the Irresistible Force of Ac-
complished Facts. We Have Done
Them no Wrong.


Washington, Jan. 14.-Shortly after
the cabinet meeting Secretary Root
issued the following statement regard
ing the Isthmian policy of the admin
istration:
1.-THE publication in various quarters
of news indicating that the government
is preparing to send troops to the
isthmus to carry on military operations
against Colombia has been the source
of considerable annoyance to the eX-
ecutive and to the war department.
No state of war exists between the two
countries; no preparation of hostilities
is contemplated by this government;
no preparation for war is being made.
1t is not believed by the president, nor
by the secretary of state that any &C.
casion fer the employment of troops on
the isthmus is likely to arise. They
have used their utmost efforts to con-
vince General Reyes and the Begota
authorities of the friendly intentions
of this government toward Colombia
SCON-
offices in the settlement of any ques-
tions in dispute between Colombia and
Panama. 1t is difficult for them to
believe. that the authorities in Bogota
can be SO blinded by passion and pred
judice as to declare war against us and
even if this ruinous step should be
taken by Colombia this government
would be in no haste to respond to her
challenge. The president makes all
possible allowance for the natural ex-
element in Bogota over state of
things for which the Colombian gov
eminent is alone responsible, and of
which it was fully forwarned. But
they must sooner or later recognize the
irresistible force of accomplished facts
and the sooner this is done, the better
for all parties. We have done them no
wrong; we would like to be of service
to them; if they are wise, they will not
put it out of our power to help them
by any act of raShness and violence"

STATE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE.
Corn Yield OF Greater Value Than That
OF Wheat.

Topeka, Jan. 16.-At the meeting of
the State Board of Agriculture. Secre-
tary Coburn devoted a good deal of his
time in telling of the publications
which have been issued by the board
during the past year and the immense
circulation each has had. He eulogized
the great prosperity with which the
farmers have met and predicted anoth-
err prosperous year. In closing Secre-
tary Coburn said:
ALPHABETICALLY the past year has
been one of the most productive in the
history of the state. In 1908 were
raised the largest wheat crop ever
grown, and corn yield of greater
value than that of the wheat. Other
crops fourished, too, and gave opulent
yields in spite of a humidity, that in
almost any other state than ours
would have meant failure. 1t would
seem that General Prosperity has per-
manently located in Kansas.
I'm being the official chronicler and
herald of such conditions for such a
constituency the State Board of Agri-
culture is favored in degree that is
enviable"
The report of President Churchill
was along the same line.

IN DENVER NEXT YEAR
that Independent Packing Company To
Be Pushed
MANY COURTESIES EXCHANGED.
No Effort VIII be Left Unmade to Raise
100000 for stockmen's Packing
Plants. There is Determination to
Garry This Through to Success.

Portland, Ore, Jan. 1s.-With the
feeling that one of the most important
.1eetings in the history of the organi-
cation Of the National Live Stock
Association is ended, and that much
was accomplished that ill be to the
future success of the live stock inter
ests, the seventh annual assembly of
the Live Stock association ad journed
to meet in Denver next year. The
opinion of those in attendance on this
convention is that a more successful
and pleasant convention has never
been held.
Many important questions have been
considered, the more important being
the public lands relative to grazing,
the relation of railroads to the stock
industry, and, most important of all,
the. establishment of independent
packing houses, This has been the
watchword of almost every session.
The proposition of the stockmen to
band together in one corporation for
the purpose of bnilding and operating
packing plants of their own, that the
packing combinations may be fought
and the interests of the producer and
consumer protected, were explained
thoroughly by those who have studied
the situation.
The necessity of raising $1,000, 900
for the purpose of putting this plan
into operation was ever kept before the
convention and the work of securing
subscriptions toward this end will be
taken up Immediately. The plan hav-
ing received the unanimous endorse
ment of the convention, those irecting
it are determined to carry it through
to success. aud no effort will be left
unmade to accomplish this end. The
expression of lose who spoke in be-
half of this scheme wat that it offered
the only solutic n to the situation that
now faces the industry.
The election of officers resulted as
follows:
Frank J. Hagenbarth. Utah, presi-
dent; Il. Jastro, Bakersfield, Calf, first
vice president; Francis Stewart, Buff
falo Gap, S. D., second vice president;
Charles F. Martin, Denver, Colo, Sec
rotary; George G.. Goulding, Denver,
Colo, treasurer.

The Fear of Death.

Could human life, argues M. Metch-
nikoff, be prolonged to its normal
physiological period, humanity would
be set free from the fear of death,
which arises from really unnatural
curtailing of life. Death would ap-
pear as much a physiological func-
ton, as fitting and harmonious. as
any other phase of the organisms ex-
istence; the desire of death would
come in the ripeness of time as spon-
taneously as the desire of life in
youth or maturity.
