'Salina, Kan, June 15=In a de-
cision by Police Judge Blundon the
Sunday ordinance was practically
knocked out. A barber had been ar
rested charged with keeping open last
Sunday. The BARRIERS attorney was
present ready to fight the ordinance
when City Attorney Lovitt dismissed
the case without arguing it. The
movement to keep the lid on in Sa-
lima has now reached the place where
it devolves upon the county attorney,
as the city ordinances are not suf-
hcient. Blind tigers are plenty and
there is much liquor sold.

curse that af1icts humanity. He
writes:
My attention was recently called to
one of the employees of this Office who
had, through the habit of intoxicating
drink. become so inefficient as to be
on the verge of dismissal.
Six weeks treatment with Orrine
not only cured the appetite, but prac-
tically all the signs of dissipation dis
appeared. It is a pleasure to me to
acknowledge the value Of remedy
which brings results SO beneficial,
Orrine IS a guaranteed cure for the
liquor habit. Take or give it without
publicity or loss of time. It can be adj
ministered secretly in tea, coffee or
food, for which purpose No. 1 should
be bought. Orrine No. 2, in pill form,
Is for patients who wish to be cured of
this terrible habit. The price is 81
per box. Ask US about Orrine-we do
not hesitate to recommend Ofrine as
the best and only cure for the liquor
habit. Geo W. Stansf1eld, druggist,

Statement-Retired From Case.
Cincinnati, June I5.-Judge Har-
mon, who was engaged with F. N.
Judson of ST. Louis, by Attorney Gen
eral Moody to investigate charges
that the Atchison, Topeka & Santa F'e
road was granting rebates to the Colo
RADIO Fuel and Iron company, today
gave out the following statement in
which he confirms the report that he
had terminated his commission with
the government
LAS the dispatch was given to the
press which asked me in connection
with Mr.. Judson to undertake the
duty of investigating and reporting on
the alleged rebates given by the Atch-
ison, Topeka & Santa F'e railroad to
the Colorado Fuel and Iron company
I think there should now be no mys-
terry about what has become of the
matter.
Mr. Judson and myself made the
investigation and recommended a GER
tain proceeding be taken. The at
torney general disapproved our rec
ommendation as he had a perfect
right to do. The nature and circum-
stances of our appointment seemed to
impose a degree of important RESPONSE
bility,- and we thought our duty re-
quired us to adhere to our views. We
have so notified the attorney general
and retired from further connection
with the matter

TROUBLE FOR MoFFATr.
Efforts Being Made to Prevent Build
ing of Railway in Gore CANNON.

Denver, Col. June ia. L Fellows.
state engineer of North Dakota and for
merly in charge of the United States recla-
nation service of this city, today made
an affidavit concerning the Gore canyon
which is being contested for by the Den
yer, Northwestern and Pacific road, but
which has been set aside by the United
States reclamation service for a reservoir
site. The affidavit is an answer to the
charges made in affidavit recently in
the suit for possession of the canyon in
which Fellows was charged with holding
himself to be improperly Influenced in the
presentation of his report favoring the
segregation OF the canyon for reservoir
purposes. Mr.. Fellows says that the pro-
posed reservoir is essential to the needs
of the government in retaining the arid
lands in Colorado, Utah, Arizona and CAL
ifornia that the construction of the reser-
voir is feasible; that the supply of unap-
propriated water is sufficient to fill the
reservoir annually and the construction of
the reservoir will not interfere with the
building of the Denver, Northwestern and
Pacific. The suit referred to is one in
which an application for an injunction is
made by United States District Attorney
Cranston to restrain the Denevr, North
western and Pacific from laying tracks
through the Gore canyon.

Dyspepsia Is Nothing More
Nor Less Than Catarrh

the Only Rational
Means of Cure.
Pe-ru-na Cures Catarrh-Whethes
of the Stomach or Any Other :,
Organ, Therefore Pe-ru-na
Cures Dyspepsia.

Catarrh of the stomach is the cor
rect name for most cases OF dyspepsia.
To undertake to treat dyspepsia by
the use of palliatives is only to tenn
porize without any permanent results.
In order to cure catarrh of the
stomach the catarrh must be eradi-
Gated
Manifestly, a local catarrh remedy
cannot be used in such cases.
Only an internal catarrh remedy
such as Peruna. is available.
Peruna exactly meets the indica-
tons.
Do Not Delay.
If. you suffer from indigestion or
dyspepsia, and have tried ordinary
remedies without relief. it Is safe to
assume that your case is one OF ca
tarrh of the stomach.
Do not neglect this condition. De-
lays are dangerous.
A bottle of Peruna taken now win
save you much needless suffering and
/ expense.

been troubled with catarrh of the head
and stomach for about three years
I decided to try Peruna. In three
weeks was much better. In seven
weeks more I was well. I am very
much pleased with Peruna.'
