One reason why Peruna has found
permanent use in so many homes is that
it contains no narcotic of any kind. Pc
runais perfectly harmless. 1t can be
used any length of time without acquir-
ing a drug habit. Peruna does not pro-

and gradually eliminates catarrh by re-

TAMPERED WITH.
7 he Laws of Ohio in the
Hands Of Grafrers.

The way in which the laws of
Ohio have been secretly tampered
with by bosses and grafters, dur
ing their enactment and probably
afterward, may well give all of the
people of Ohio, without regard to
party, great deal of concern.
Within the past few weeks, two
important laws which go to the
very vitals of the state and muni-
cipal governments, have been
found, on inspection, to be for the
spoliation and not for the protec-
tion of the people,
For years they had been suppos-
ed to protect the public against
ofIice-holding rapacity only to be
discovered as licenses for greedy
officials to plunder without re-
straint and without mercy to the
taxpayers.
1t was no accident that these
laws were changed and made to
say one thing at one time and an
other at another time.
The work was purposely done at
some point, under cover and Sc
cretly. When one looks at the
enormous grabbing and grating
going on in the face of "doped"
and "hamstrung" laws, he knows
in whose behalf the Infamous work
was done.
This condition of offairs cannot
be laid on both parties. 1t is the
work Of one party alone. For ten
years that party has controlled
every Office, great and small, IN
the State House; it has controlled
every Legislature by two-thirds or
three-fourths majoritles. Each
year local debt and taxation have
Increased; each year the graft has
grown more open and rapacious.
Certainly the honest voters of
all parties know what ought to be
done.

Killed a Bear

The story reached Corvallis few
days ago to the effect that the l5year
old son Of Jack Erwin had killed a black
bear on their ranch between Beaver
creek and Greasy. The bear was fat az
a result Of the inroads made on the
flock of goats owned by Mr.. Erwin. The
boy met bruin in the timber, and al
though he had not but a shotgun load
cd with birdshot, he opened fire. The
animal continued to come toward the
lad after the first shot, but badly
frightened as he was, the young hunter
stood his ground and unloaded another
barrel into the bear This did the work
and the lad had dead bear to his
credit.-Corvalli Gazette.

determined district attorney should

own testimony in the investigation OF

Depew's yearly salary of $4,000 for

the great volume Of graft. His ready
