CURES
CHRONIC CATARRH
OF the Nose, Throat, Lungs,
Stomach, Liver, Kidneys
and Bowels.
Wonderful New Discovery,
which Entirely Removes This
Terrible Afflictl0n.
FREE Treatment ON REQUEST

There is no other disease so widespread
as Catarrh. It infests nearly every homo
and is felt to greater or less degree by
almost all of US at some time during
our lives.
Its ravages are not confined to the nose
alone but it soon affects the Throat and
Lungs, then the Stomach and Liver, and
finally the Kidneys and Bowels become
Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1904-04-20

weakened and broken down by reason Of
the terrible curse of Catarrh. This dis
ease is inflammatory in its nature and is
very liable to affect the membranes and
tissues of any vital organ or part of the
system and produce results which cause
a lifetime of suffering and regret.
Men of science and students of medi-
cine have tried in vain for years to find
a positive cure, but it has remained for
one living in our own generation to fn-
ally discover what he claims to be GER
tain remedy for Catarrh of any organ of
the body. His claims are vouched for
by the words of hundreds of people whose
honesty cannot be doubted; people who
have suffered for years and tried every
other known remedy without avail;
people who had not faith at first but
were finally cured and convinced of the
wonderful power of this new discovery
in medical science.
The famous physician to whom the
credit belongs for this wonderful devel-
opment and addition to twentieth-cent-
ury science Is DR.. ]. A. TOMAS, 900
Fredericksen Bldg, South Bend, Ind.
He will send anyone who is suffering from
Catarrh free treatment TO prove the
merits and wonderful curative properties
OF this new discovery. Readers are re-
quested to describe their case when writ
ing to the doctor for the Free Treatment.
II you have any other disease, pain or
affiction besides Catarrh write the doctor
about It and he will send free treatment
tor that also at the Same time he sends
you the Free Treatment for Catarrh.

Roosevelt Removes Alaskan
Officials.
United States Marshal Richards
Is Dismissed and Resignation of
Judge NJ. &. Brown is Asked
For.

Washington, Nov. 16.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt has removed from
Office Franz Fl. Richards, United
States marshal for the Nome dis
trict IN Alaska and has requested
the resignation of Judge Melville
Z. Brown, of the Juneau dist,i let.
This action is the result of the in
vestigation of the Alaska judiciary
made recently by Assistant Attor-
ney General Day. The case of
Judge Alfred S. Moore is held in
allegiance.
The nature of the charges made
against the officials was not made
public in detail, it being deemed
advisable not to publish at this
time the report made by Judge
Day. 1t is known, however, that
the charges involved selGsh, if not
corrupt, practices before the Alas
kan courts in mining claim cases.
Charges, from time to time,
have been against nearly all the
federal officials of Alaska, Gov.
Brady not being exempt, but it is
said that the action of president
today finally closes the matters of
these charges, officials of the ad-
ministration being being satisfied
that Gov. Brady, Judge James
Wickersham of the Yukon district
md other officials involved in
them have acted in the best inter.
ests of the territory. Judge
Wickcrsham was reappointed to
day.

CARNEGIE CHEERS
FREE TRADE TALK
John Morley Speaks at Banquet
of New York Chamber Of
Commerce. 1.

New York, Nov. 16.-John Morley,
member of parliament, was the speech
making success Of the night at the an
nual banquet Of the Chamber of Com
merce at Delmonico's last night. His
speech advocated free trade. He in
troduced the subject with apologies. He
begged his hearers not to boot him out
Of the hall for what he was going to
say. @.- -
There were 400 men at the banquet,
most Of them multimillionaires, and
they represented an ownership of wealth
roughly estimated at two billions.
To the surprise Of MI. Morley and
many Of those present his free trade
utterances were vociferously applauded
When he said that the United. States
would be 5 just as great eat and Just a.
70 per cent of his hearers cheered
pounded on the tables, stamped on the
floor and clapped their hands. q
The man who led. the applause was
Andrew Carnegie, who has. made prob
ably $300,000,000 out of protective
tariff, more perhaps than any other null
timillionaire in the room. -

CLOUD APPEARS
IN CLAPP'S SKY
Gilfillan and Kellogg Regarded as
Strong Aspirants for
His Seat.

Two formidable rivals are looming
in the path of Senator Clapp and his
chances for reelection next January
are not as rosy as they were last sum
mer.t 81 Sc - go. - 81 1za-ss
Possible entries in the race are Frank
B. Kellogg of st. Paul and j. B. Gil
fllan of Minneapolis. Opposition to
Clapp in St: Paul is looking for a:lead.
or. The Ramsey delegation of eight
republicans will naturally stand for a
st. Paul man but they are beginning to
realize that the junior senator is not
sure Of his seat, and are figuring on a
possible switch to Kellogg. The dele.
cation will not. take a definite stand on
the speakership just now, mainly on
account of the senatorship. z. ..
Thomas Lowry of Minneapolis will
not be q candidate, in spite Of false
alarms involving his name. There is
strong sentiment in favor of a home
man among the Henenpin members and
the business interests Of the city are
anxious to land the senatorship. If 8
Minneapolis candidate enters the field
it will be j. B. Gilfllan.

opportunity to confer with the leaders
of the senate and house. .>"

not be slow in making them known when
the propertime comes. But he does not
