MORMONs MAY
Be DISFRANCHISED
Their Constitutional Right to Vote
Will Be Challenged by Idaho
Democrats.

Boise, idaho, Oct. 29.-The demo
cratic state committee has given out
the following statements,
"rhe Mormons of Idaho will be chal-
lengcd as to their constitutional right
to vote in Idaho. Charles H. Jackson
will leave today for the southeastern
part of the state to take charge of
the work leading up to these constitu-
tional charges.
sThe state committee takes the view
that under the sworn testimony of
church leaders in the Smoot case, no
Mormon can vote under the provisions
Of the Idaho constitution.
''The committee IS view of the situa-
ton has been augmented by positive
statements made in various campaign
arguments by Senator Hepburn in
which he contended vigorously that the
constitution was an effectual bar, with
out the enactment of statute, to any
one voting who teaches polygamy,
plural or celestial marriage, or who
places the ecclesiastical law above the
civil law.
"The challenges will lay the founda-
ton for a contest in congress as to the
right of Mormons to exercise elective
franchise under the provisions of the
Idaho state constitution. .~. H.. -.

restore the family fortune. They
argued that the medicine which was
SO good for their woman friends and
neighbors was equally good for the
women of the whole world.
The Pinkhams had no money, and
little credit. Their first laboratory
was the kitchen, where roots and
herbs were STEPPED on the stove,
gradually filling gross of bottles.
Then came the question of selling
it, for always before they had given
it away freely. They hired 2 job
setting forth the merits of the medi-
Vegetable Compound, and these were
Boston, New York, and Brooklyn,
The wonderful curative properties Of
the medicine were, to a great extent,
self-adyertising, for whoever used it
recommended it to others, and the de.
mand gradually increased.
In 1877, by combined efforts the fam-
lily had saved enough money to COM
mence newspaper advertising and from
that time the growth and success Of
the enterprise were assured, until to-.
day Lydia e. Pinkham and her Vege-
table Compound have become house.
hold words everywhere, and many
tons of roots and herbs are used annu.
ally in its manufacture.
Lydia e. Pinkham herself did not
live to see the great success of this
| work. She passed to her reward years
ago, but not till she had provided
means for continuing her work as
effectively as she could have done it
herself.
During her long and eventful expe-
| rience she was ever methodical in her
work and she was always careful topre-
serve record OF every case that came to
her attention. The case of every sick
woman who applied to her for advice
and there We're thousands-received
careful study, and the details, includ-
Ling symptoms, treatment and results
were recorded for future reference, and
to-day these records, together with
hundreds of thousands made since, are
available to sick women the world
over, and represent a vast collabora-
ton of information regarding the
treatment of woman's ills, which for
authenticity and accuracy can hardly
be equaled in any library in the
world.
With Lydia E. Pinkham worked her
daughter in law, the present Mrs.
Pinkham. She was carefully instructed
in all her hardwon knowledge, and
for years she assisted her in her vast
correspondence.
| To her hands naturally fell the
direction of the work when it's origina-
tor passed away. For nearly twenty
five years she has continued it, and
nothing in the work shows when the
first Lydia E. Pinkham dropped her
| pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham,
now the mother of large family, took
it up. With women assistants. some as
capable as herself, the present Mrs.
Pinkham continues this great work, and
probably from the Office of no other
person have so many women been adj
vised how to regain health. Sick wo-
men, this advice is s'Yours for Health"
freely given if you only write to ask
for it.
Such is the history of Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound made
from simple roots and herbs the one
great medicine for women's ailments,
and the fitting monument to the noble
woman whose name it bears.

the daughter of D. c. Brown Of Lin

day in the Catholic cathedral by taking
carbolic acid.
Miss Brown came to Kansas City
three weeks ago and registered at one

Yesterday she attended services at

remained in the church after the con-
gregation had left, but nothing was
thought of it. Later she was discov-
cred dead in pew. :

states, hoping to regain his rapidly
falling health, caused by heart trouble,
was suddenly taken worse on Saturday
last and died almost instantly. His
wife, whom he married in New Mexico,
and three small children accompanied
him. His remains were taken to
Montoursville on Sunday for burial.

Thank Them Personally.

A exchange very truthfully remarks:
Editors would be the last men on earth
to knowingly hurt the feelings of their
subscribers or citizens, especially at a
time when the dark winged messenger
of death has brought sorrow to the
home, but it is from the best of mo-
tives that attention is called to the GUS
tom of publishing "cards of thanks"
1t is custom that has outgrown its
purpose, if it ever had one. When
sickness and death come to your home
it is only natural that your friends and
neighbors should do what they could to
assist you. They would be heathens if
they did not. They know from the ex-
preston of your face that you are
thankful and deeply appreciate all they
do, and it is not necessary to rush into
print and tell the world that your
neighbors were kind when you were in
trouble The reading public has be.
come tired ofthe old stereotyped ''card
of thanks" You can express to your
friends by look or word of thankful
ness in more impressive manner than
you can in column of cold type.

LOCK HAVEN, July, 22.-All is not
harmony in the Democratic camp in
Clinton county. The announcement of
George A. Brown, of this city, as a
candidate for President Judge of the
Twenty fifth Judicial District has
caused cold shivers to the Halls. The
Brownies are determined to do away
with the rule off. K. P. and Harry A.

Cameron. The $4,000 berth $4,000
per annum for ten years. had been
especially reserved for Harry Alvan

son, while j. K. p. Hall gobbled up
the senatorial plum again. The Hall
adherents in the county were not
figuring upon any opposition to the
carrying out of this program.
Brown is a member of the law firm
of Brown & Stevenson, and is regard
ed as one of the most learned legal
practitioners at the Cliuton county

Letter From Cameron.


Kindly premit me to answer an item
that appeared in the East Emporium
Independent, two weeks ago, relative
to tha renting of the K. G.. E. hall for
dances. The correspondent stated
that "S4.00 is altogether too much to
pay for the use of the hall, and then
pay a dollar for the use of the organ.
Looks very much like buying the whole
outfit" In answer to the gentleman |
will say that he only paid 81 90 on even
ing of June 30th and then wanted the
organ carried down stairs for his use,
when it was in use up stairs. l also
wish to state that some years ago it
was decided to charge $1.00 extra for
organ and the ruling was not new, as he
would make us believe. Whenever
the members of this Lodge need the as
sistance of outside parties to regulate
the price of the hall or organ rental we
will call on them. If any parties think
the rent is too high they should not
rent the hall. Surely the members
have never requested any one to rent
it if they thought the price too high.
Whenever the K. G. E., of this place.
see fit to give dance they can have it
and make enough to pay all expenses
and have balance left. They have
always been able to engage caller
and music-which some parties could
not-and they were never obliged to
use squaking phonograph to murder
music.
There are class of people in every
town, who make their living without
working, and another class who try to
but fail for the want of brains. AS
members of the K. G. E., we never had
to blow our own horn when we had a
dance-we left that to the people.
