UNION PRINTERS ON STRIKE.
Twelve Hundred Men Out In New York

S'sys
New York, Jan. 3.-Twelve hundred
union printers, the employees Of forty.
four book and job printing concerns in
New York city, went on strike during
the day and began the struggle for the
eight.hour day which had been de.
clared to go into effect during the day.
Members of the local Typothetae,
against whom the strike was declared,
asserted at night that hundreds OF
nonunion printers from various parts
of the country are hurrying 20 New
York to take the places of the strik'
ers and to secure the high wages paid
In this city. Representatives of the
Typographical union say that the eight
hour principle has already been won
in New York and that the percentage
of men compelled to strike is very
small.
According to an official statement Is
sued at night there are lightweight
firms associated in the local Typothe-
tae. Of these twenty-five have con-
sented to the eight-hour day. Forty
four firms have decided to adhere TO
the nine-hour day rule and seven firms
already were operating on the open
shop principle. Twelve members of
the Typothetae have as yet reached no
decision.
To provide steady supply OF non
union men the employing printers
have established an employment bu,
reau in this city, which will be run in
connection with similar Offices in other
cities. 1t is said no discrimination
will be made against union men at
these employment stations.

Buried deep in our American forests
many years ago, DR.. Pierce found q
beautiful, blooming plant the root Of
which possesses wonderfully eficacious
properties as stomach and general
purifier and liver inyigorator, having an
especial affinity for all mucous surfaces
upon which it exerts a most salutary,
soothing and healing influence.
This sturdy little plant is known to
botanists as Hydrastis Canadensis, but
has several local English names, being
generally known as Golden Seal. DR..
Pierce found the root of this common
forest plant to possess medicinal prin-
ciples of great potency, especially when
combined, in just the right proportions,
with Queens root, Black Cherrybark,
Stone root, Mandrake root and Blood
root, the properties of each being ex-
tracted and preserved in chemically
pure glycerine of proper strength.
This compound DIR. Pierce named
his cGolden Medical Discovery" in
honor of the sturdy little Golden Seal
plant. So little used was the root of
this plant by the medical profession at
that time, that it could be purchased
in the open markets for from fifteen
cents to twenty cents pound. The
use of many tons of this root every
year in DR.. Pierce's two leading medi-
cines-for it enters into both wGolden
Medical Discovery" and also into DIR.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription as one of
their most important ingredients-has
caused the price of the root to advance
until to-day it commands upwards of
a dollar and half a pound.
DIR. PIERcE's FAITH.
DIR. Pierce believes that in our native
forests are to be found an abundance of
most valuable medicinal plants for the
cure of many distressing and most
fatal maladies, if we would only seek
them out, test them and learn how
and for what diseases to use them.
Furthermore, he believes that the veg
etable kingdom is the one to resort to
for the most harmless remedial agents.
They act most kindly upon the hui
man system and are eliminated or car
ried out of the body by the natural
functions without injury, even in cases
where it is necessary to make protracted
use of them in order to experience per-
manent cures. !, DIR. Pierce's medicines
being purely vegetable, are perfectly
harmless. In other words, while they
are potent to cure, being purely vege-
table in composition and containing no
alcohol, they leave no bad effects be-
hind. This is not generally true when
mineral medicines and those containing
large percentages of alcohol are taken
into the system and their use protracted
over considerable periods of time.
Many years ago, DIR. Pierce discov-
cred that chemically pure glycerine, OF
proper strength, is a better solvent and
preservatiye Of the medicinal principles
residing in our indigenous, or native,
medicinal plants than is alcohol and,
furthermore, that it possesses intrinsic
medicinal properties of its own, being
demulcent, i1utritive, antiseptic and q
most efficient anti-ferment.
THEY STAND ALONE.
The fact that neither DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, the great
stomach tonic, liver invigorator, heart
regulator and blood purifier, nor his
sEavorite Prescription for weak, nerv-

WILL SUCCEED BLACKBURN.
Judge Paynter to Be a Senator From
Kentucky.

Judge Paynter to Be Senator From
Kentucky.
Frankfort, KY, Jan. 3.-Judge
Thomas H. Paynter of the Kentucky
court of appeals was nominated on the
first ballot taken in joint caucus at
night to select a Democratic candidate
to succeed United States Senator J. c.
S. Blackburn. The nomination carries
with it the certainty of election, as the
Democrats have more than two-thirds
of the combined membership of both
branches of the legislature. The vote
was as follows:
Judge Thomas H. Payner, SO: Sena.
tor ]. c. S. Blackburn, "a; w. B.
Haldeman, 10: Congressman David H
Smith. l. Necessary to nomination, 90
Judge Paynter's nomination ends
one of the hardest senatorial struggles
OF the past twenty years of Kentucky
politics. His nearest opponent was j
c. S. Blackburn, the incumbent, who
represented Kentucky in the house and
senate with but one intermission for
nearly quarter Of a century. Until
two days ago it was generally believed
that there would be a deadlock in the
caucus. When the house and senate
caucuses for the purpose of organic
ing these bodies were held Monday
night it became apparent that Judge
Paynter, who was backed by Governor
Beckham and the state administration
men, would gain the coveted prize. AL
though the Haldeman and Blackburn
forces combined to name the officers
of the two houses, Paynter men were
installed. The vote at night showed
that Paynter not only held Monday
nights strength, but received an ac-
cession of two votes. When the joint
caucus met at night there was no con
test over the craftsmanship Senator
Henry George, Paynter supporter
who was previously chosen chairman
of the senate caucuss. was unanimous
ly chosen to preside. After the selec.
ton of chairman there was a delay
of one hour and then Judge Paynter's
supporters quickly voted their condi-
date in.
Thomas H. Paynter was born in
Lewis county, Kentucky, Dec. 10. 1851
He has served three terms in con-
gress and is member of the Ken.
lucky court of appeals.

New York. May $50 profoundly apa-
thctic was the trading in the stock mar

Tor any but ncgatiV. deduC tionS. That
the formation of speculative sentiment
awaits an iniativc from new events is
the one safe conclusion to infer. The
hesitation in forming conviction on the
future OF the market must, on the other
hand. be based On some uncertainties ON
the outcome of events. The problem of
the fail money market continues to be
most uncertain and day to day events in
Wall street at present offer little assist

Money brokers' reported some cimnu-
ton i'll the supply of funds offered on
time i'll this market and the rates fer the
longer periods were hrm. The weekly
bulletin Of crop conditions issued by the
weather bureau, showing OF insufficient
moisture in the winter wheat region Of
the Southwest, was not helpful to stocks
although the wheat market was inclined
to react from its recent strong advances
on immediate reports Of showers today.
The on, incident OF interest in the mar
