A YIndIcatlon for DR.. Pierce.

A verdict has been rendered in favor
of the plaintiff in the libel suit brought
against the Ladies Home Journal (pub-
lished by the Curtis Publishing Coz by
the Worlds Dispensary Medical Asso-
citation, OF which DR.. r. V. Pierce is
President. The suit was brought by
Doctor Pierce against the Curtis Pub
fishing Co., for making false statements
about one OF his standard family med
icines known as DR.. Plerce's Fav0rite
Prescription. In the May number of
the Ladies' Home Journal (l904), Mr..
Edward Box, the editor, stated that DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription contained
alcohol and some other harmful ingre-
dients, and DR.. Pierce had In the action
alleged that the defendant malciously
published this article containing such
false and defamatory matter, DR..
Pierce further claimed that no alcohol
is or ever was contained in his Favor
ite Prescription" that said medicine
was a vegetable preparation and con-
tanned no deleteIious ingredients what-
ever; that Mr.. Bok's statement pre-
tending to give some of the Ingredients
of said medicine, was wholly and ,abso-
lubbiy ldlbts DuIluB VIC Jilals bbC ' ihC~
President OF the Worlds Dispensary
Medical Association stated, that the in
gradients of DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pres
crlption we're extracted from the follow
ing roots: Golden Seal, Blue Cohosh,
Lady's Slipper, Black Cohosh and Uni
corn, by means Of pure glycerlne. He
was asked how he knew as physician
and experienced medical man, that the
"Favorite Prescription" was u cure for
diseases peculiar to women, such az
amenorhea, dismenorrhea, ante-version,
retroyersion, and he stated that he knew
such was the fact because OF his pro-
iessional experience and the many thou
sands of women whose ills had been
cured by this Prescription" The
Vice President, being asked to give his
authorities, read from the standard
works, such as the United States Dis.
pensatory, The American Dispensatory
and many other standard medical books.
The retracton printed by the Curtis
Publishing Company two months after
the libelous statement appeared and
nearly two months after the salt had
been begun stated definitely that analy-
ses had been made at their request and
that the "Favorite Prescription" did
not contain either alcohol, opium or
digitalis.

MORE CAPITAL
FOR HOOD RIVER
NEW COMPANY WILL INVEST HERE
Expect to Put $4,000 in Fruit
Lands and viii Send Expert
to Locate IL.

Some time this week representa-
tive of new fruit company which has
been organized at Denver will arrive
at Hood River and inspect the valley
with the intention of locating fruit
land. II suitable land can be found
it is the expectation of the company
to invest Sa5, 600 In it and develop 1t.
One of the men interested in the en-
terprise is h. A. Cooper, son Of DR..
Cooper OF this city.
Associated with him are other men
who have faith in the future of Hood
River and they are sending man
here who is an expert In the fruit
business to locate a fruit ranch for the
company.
Indications this spring point to the
fact that there will be more money
put into land and industrial improve
ments here this yeai than In any sim
liar period in the history Of this local
ity. Several hundred acres of land
which has been purchased in the
Mount Hood country will be either all
or partially developed during the
coming year by individuals or COM
panies who are relying ON transporta-
tion facilities, which are now in oper-
alton or which are expected to be by
the time their orchards come into
bearing.
The development is not confined to
one district but extends pretty gener-
ally all over the valley. A number of
projects which are under way but can
now be announced will mean the ex-
penditure of good many thousands
Of dollars in improving and develop
ing new orchards. Land that has
been thought unfit and unadapted to
apple growing Is being reclaimed and
put in shape for setting trees and the
cheaper grade trees are being grubbed
out and standard varieties set In their
places.
The apple crop of this year should
exceed that of last season by goodly
sum as there are many trees that will
reach the bearing age this year and
will have partial crop. In fact 1t is
said that more trees will come into
being this year than at any previous
time, and that most all of them
are of the higher priced varie-
ties. Experience is demonstrating
tllub bHb l'obO CumlncIOAhA OhohuAN 10
the one in which there are the fewest
varieties and Newtowns and Spitzen-
bergs are conceded to be the best pay
ing apples that yet have been found.
Better iriigating facilities are being
provided on both the east and west
sides. The new ditch of the Hood
River Irrigating District when com
pleted will furnish a supply that has
long been needed aud the proposed
improvements to The plant of the
Farmers Irrigating Company will give
growers In that section better supply
than it has heretofore had and with
other water supplies being developed
the valley will soon be in better con-
dition in this regard than it has ever
been.
The price of apple land has increased
to very high figure during the past
year and some very fancy prices have
been offered for some OF the fruit
farms in the valley. Five hundred
dollars an acre has been refused by
several owners of orchards and there
are many others that could not be
bought for twice that sum.

Roosevelt Wants Jail Sentences for Big
Trust Magnates.

President Roosevelt, Attorney
General Moody and the special coun-
sci employed by the government to
prosecute the Standard Oil Co. and
the railroads that have given rebates
to it, held a consultation at the
White House last Thursday.
The President explained the ad-
visibility of sending to states prison
some of the men who have become
conspicuous in the organization Of
great conspiracies against trade and
commerce. He is said to have been
extremely emphatic in the reitera
ton of his position. He said he die
not want any moro big prosecutions
of little men. He wanted the chic
offenders convicted and subjected t.
the Imprisonment penalties.
\ The second object of the prosecu
tons, the President explained, wa'
to subject the big lawbreaking cor
porations to such heavy cumulative
fines as to seriously impair their di
vidend paying capacity. In tina
way notice would be brought hom
Ito the stockholders that it did no
pay to violate the law.

keystone Democrats are Now all Right,

The following is an extract from
three column article in the New
York World descriptive Of the man
ner in which the Pennsylvania dem
ocrats cheered Bryan and denounced
the trusts in their recent state con-
vention: This great American com
moner, was one Of the most frequent
and affectionate terms employed by
the speakers in referring to Mr..
Bryan. Our next President" was
the way the gallery expressed its
confidence. Bryan, whose thunder
Roosevelt is stealing" was phrase
used by a delegate in nominating a
candidate.
When Mr.. Bryan's name was first
mentioned by Temporary Chairman
Ryan, that gentleman took a respite
for two minutes while the crowd on
the floor and in the galleries expand
ed their lungs to omit a series OF
yells that found echo in the Mary
land hills. When Mr.. Bryan's name
was used in Democratic State Con
ventions four years ago, there wasn't
so much cheering. One of the
speakers to-day recalls the fact.

mention the name of this great COM
moner who will be selected by the
American people to be President Of

cheered Nh. Bryan for another min

Pennsylvania For Bryan.

T h 9 Pennsylvania democratic
state convention met at Harrisburg
last week, and repudiated Boss
Guffey, cheored for Bryan, and
Kissed the Standard Oil and other
trusts. This looks as though in 1908
the state Of Pennsylvania may be
represented by real democrats in the
democratic national convention OF
that year. And the zeal democrats,
by fusing with the progressive re-
publicans OF that state, may be able
to smash the old corrupt Quay ma
chine, now managed by Penrose.
The reports of the convention agree
that praise of Bryan and denunci-
alton Of the trusts were cheered al
every reference. Lewis Emery, g
Lincoln republican and an enemy o.
the Standard Oil company was nomi
mated for Governor.

Iowa People Can Smash the Trusts the
Same as They Do in Missouri.

Iowa has just as good an anti.
trust law as the state of Missouri,
but that fact does not seem to b.
generally understood.
1t is quite proper for the legisla-
ture Of any state, to deprive law
breakers of all rit bit TO resort to the
courts for redress of any kind.
1t is well known that gaming con
tracts can not be enforced, and thai
debts contracted for intoxicating IL.
quors sold in violation of Iowa law
are unbelievable, but it is not gener-
ally known that all trusts are out
lawed by the statutes Of this state.
Such, however, is fact
Section 5000, of the Code makes
it unlawful for any person or cor
poration to become party to any
pool, trust or agreement "to regulate
or fix the price of any article OF mer
chandise or commodity, or to fix or
limit the amount or quantity Of any
article, commodity or merchandise
to be manufactured, mined, produc-
ed or sold in this state
Section 506l of this Code, makes ii
unlawful for any person or corpor-
alton to enter into trust agreemen,
for the purpose Of placing the man.
agement Of any business in the
hands of a trustee with power to liz
prices or limit or control the pro-
duction of any article Of commerce.
use or consumption.
Section 5OG2 of the Code, provides
for fine of not to exceed $4,000, OF
imprisonment for not to exceed one
year, or both, for any one found
guilty of violating any Of the pro-
visions Of the two preceding sections
Section 5OG3 Of the Code, makes
void all contracts in violation of any
Of the provisions Of the three pre-
ceding sections.
And the following is verbatim
copy Of section 5064 Of the Code:
ANY purchaser Of any article or
commodity from any individual COM
pany or corporation transacting bust
ness contrary to any provisions OF
the four preceding sections shall
not be liable for the price or pay
lnent thereof, and may plead such
provisions as a defense to any action
for such price or payment.
1t matters not whether the cor
poration is organized under the laws
of this or some other state, il it viul-
ates our anti trust statutes it cannot
resort to our courts for the collec-
ton Of debt. or for any other pur-
pose. In Missouri they have simil-
ar statutory provisions to those in
Iowa, and where a trust attempts to
use the courts of Missouri the stat
ute is plead, and the court has to be
shown that its provisions have not
been violated before redress of any
nature is decreed.
