The Plymouth tribune. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1901-1911, 1906-09-20

The Chronicle and the gang oil
boilers under its lead in this
county are constantly declaring
that the state committee decided
against Hendricks.
The matter has never been be-
fore the state committee, but
State Chairman James p. Good
rich decided as follows:
"As to the legality of the cleo
ton of Mr.. Hendricks we hold
that the meeting held January
the 18th, 1906, was a legal meet
ing of the committee and in view
of the fact that a clear majority
of the committeeman present
outside of the votes of Mr.. earn
and melbourne were cast in favor
of Mr.. Hendricks for county
chairman, he was therefore duly
and regularly elected chairman
of the Marshall County Republi-
can committee"
We have this statement on file
over his own signature.

The rump end of the Republican
party that was SO Industrious las
week sending literature to good Re
publicans all over the county to kce
them away from the Republican con
vention Saturday, are likely to get
excited and send out more stuff say
ing there will be no election Nov 6
The head lines Of the Chronicle
last Thursday said Judge Larry de
cides earn is chairman and ticket
nominated is regular Republican tic.
ket" Then the wise editor of that
sheet follows this up by stating that
Judge Larry refused to issue an or
der restraining William c. Hen
bricks from acting as county chair
man, but says Judge Larry has said
however, that he will give the case
a speedy trial" Every reader of the
Chronicle can see that If its head
lines are true there is no need of a
trial, and they can see, too. that a
man who will prove himself liar in
a half dozen places in one issue OF
his paper cannot be depended upon
to tell the truth at any time

North Manchester. Mr.. Parrett is 4
great preacher, but like Lorenzo
Dow, he is never content to remain

The Chronicle admits that it lied
about Judge Lairy's decision, about
the state central committee, abou'
the rules governing nominations and
almost everything else that it could
lie about, but this weeks issue will
contain another batch of lies. Apollo
gists for Editor Boys say that he has
not sense enough to tell the truth
According to local dealers, there
will be general shortage of peaches
In the peach center of Michigan buy

WEATHER MAN IS
 TO BE REPRIMANDED
MOORE IS SAID TO HAVE FIX CEEDED HIS AUTHORITY IN TRANSFERRING MAN TO NEW ORLEANS OFFICE.

Washington. November 7.-President Roosevelt has directed that a reprimand be administered to Willis L.. Moore, chief of the weather bureau, for his action in the case of printer named Cooper in his office, who had been expelled from the Typographical union for not paying his strike assessments. MT. Moore, it is alleged, requested Cooper on two oc- casions to pay his assessments but the latter refused and he was expelled from the union. Following this Cooper was transferred to New Orleans and he claimed that this action on the part of Moore was intended as a punishment for him for not complying with the demands of the Typographical union.
 The matter was referred to the civil service commission, which without report ing on the question whether or not Coop CTS action in urging the payment of the strike assessments was improper. Under the circumstances the commission ex- pressed the opinion that Coopers trans fer would not be for the good of the service, as this would give the impression that it was intended as a punishment
 Cooper accordingly, will be reinstated in his position in the weather bureau in Washington, and a reprimand to MT. Moore will. at the direction of the Presi- dent, be administered by the secretary of agriculture.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It Is In
 Preserving Health and Beauty.
Costs Nothinn to Try.

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal i5 the safest and most efficient disn- festant and purifier in nature, but few realize it's value when taken Into the hu- man system for the same cleansing pur- pose.
 Charcoal is a remedy that the more you take of it the better; it is not drug at all, but simply absorbs the gases and Impurities always present in the stomach and intestines and carries them out Of the system.
 Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating onions and other odorous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and iin- proves the complexion, 1t whitens the teeth and further acts as natural and emnently safe cathartic.
 It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; 1t dis infeets the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh.
 All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probably the best char coal and the most for the money is in Stuarts Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal, and other harmless antiseptics in tablet form, or rather in the form of large, pleasant tasting lozenges, the charcoal being mixed with honey.
 The daily use of these iozenges will soon tell in a much improved condition  of the general health, better complexion, sweeter breath and purer blood, and the beauty of 1t is, that no possible harm can result from their continued use. but. on the contrary, great benefit.
 A Buffalo physician. in speaking of the benefits of charcoal, says: "I ad- wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels, and to< clear the complexion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe the liver is greatly bene- fited by the daily use of them; they cost but % cents a box at drug stores. and although in some sense a patent prepara- tion, yet I believe l get more and bet ter charcoal in Stuart's Charcoal Log enges than in any of the ordinary char coal tablets"
