WHY so WEAK,
Kidney Troubles May be sapping
Your Life Away Owosso People
Have learned This Fact.


When healthy man or woman be-
gins to run down without apparent
cause; becomes weak, lanquid, de-
pressed, suffers backache, headache,
dizzy spells and urinary disorders. look
to the kidneys for the cause of it all.
Keep the kidneys we'll and they will
keep you well Doan's Kidney Pills
cure sick kidneys and keep them WELL
Here's Owosso testimony to prove it.
Mrs. N. Harris of 2OS South Cedar
street, says: During eight or ten
years l suffered great deal from my
Kidneys, and at times was so bad l
could scarcely keep around thehouse.
The pain through my back and loins
made it almost impossible for me to
stoop or exert myself and was troubled
a great deal with headaches and spells
OF dizziness. / could not sleep well and
always felt tired and exhausted morn
ings. The secretions from the Kidneys
became irregular, distressing and an
noying and deposited heavy sediment.
During the early part of the winter
OF 1897 l had a severe attack
and seeing Doan's Kidney Pills adver-
tised to cure such troubles. l sent to
Johnson's drug store for box and
used them. never had a remedy act SO
promptly and effectively. They re-
lieved me almost Immediately and the
results were satisfactory in every way.

STRIKES INCREASE.
All Russia Again Involved In Serious
Labor War.

''9~'' w S~'sSe~
Labor War;
st. Petersburg, Oct. 2a.-The rail-
road strike situation has now entered
upon a highly serious phase. The
movement Is spreading rapidly to all
the railroads of the empire, and ap-
parently cannot be stopped, while in
many cities it is communicating itself
10 the mill and factory employees. The
general strike in all branches OF labor
which the socialists planned for the
END OF this year is seemingly bursting
ICrtn or It's own volition.
Minister of Finance Kokovsoff YES
terday received telegram from the
governing committee of the Moscow
bourse. which said that continuation
ot the strike for week longer would
force every factory in the Moscow re-
gion to shut down, owing to lack of
coal, whether or not the factory hands
took part in the strike.
The same condition of paralysis
threatens all the trade and industry Of
Russia unless the strike is snee6iIv
settled. The inhabitants Of Moscow
are already feeling the effects of the
STRIKE In the increased price of food.
anc they are even confronted by
famine.
AS the demands of the men are pure.
~ politlcal, 1t seems impossible to sat-
isfy them by economic concessions.

Use of the Black Ball.

Very careful use should be made Of
the black ball. In the first place, no
candidate should be recommended
against whom any reasonable objec-
ton may be known. A few tactfu
words may sometimes prevent trouble.
But If an unsuitable name be forced to
a ballot and valid objections to the
candidate are known then use the
black ball. And always keep in mind
your obligation.

HON. OLIVER VIII

HON. OLIVER "lLsoN' said to be oD-
posed to everything except that which
directly contributed to our own inter-
ests. say believe these things have
had current circulation, but / will
say at the same time that believe the
American people are at last beginning
to learn the truth about this organiza-
ton and finding out that this is not so.
We have been told that this organfza-
ton has built wall about itself to eX-
clude the interests Of all but those of
the farm alone. am fully per-
suaded that there is no agency at work
today in any other country that is do
ing more to bring about this difference
of affairs than the Order Of Patrons
Of Husbandry.
"We recognize the rights Of the
American people as whole. We ask
no special favors; neither do we desire
them granted to others. Equality be-
fore the law, whether the citizen follow
the pillow or work in machine shop,
is what we ask. We ask that the gov
eminent shall enact such laws, as will
give an equal chance of earning an hon.
est living. We ask also that conditions
be such that the humblest citizen. will
have an opportunity sto see his family
provided with not only the necessities
of life, but also some of the luxuries.
81 believe that the grange should have
political interests. l want you to re-
member, however, that the politicians
do not always understand politics, for
1 use the word in the sense in which
Webster defines 1t, the science of gov
eminent Is there any reason why an
organization which represents two
fifths of the entire population of the
United States should not dictate part
Of the financial policy and determine
how the country is in some matters vi
tai to them to be governed?
"Our organization has not yet accom-
plished the object for which it was or
ganized. 1t has commenced that work,
but it will never have accomplished it
until we see corruption banished from
all high places, until we see the farms
of this country yield their treasures in
greater abundance than ever before,
until each child Of the farm has an ac-
tually practical education thatswill bet
ter fit him for his work."
