LABOR TO ENTER POLITICS.
american Federation Announces a Cam
paiEn Programme Addressed to all
Friends of Organized Labor.

Washington. July 23.-The executive
council of the American Federation
OF Labor Sunday made good its de-
claration of several months to enter
the field Of politics in the interest of
trades union movements and to urge
all friends of organized labor to elect
to political offices men known to be
favorable to labor's cause. At the
headquarters of the federation, the
council Sunday issued its Campaign
programme" addressed ITO All Organ.
lied Labor and Friends in the United
States"
IL sets out that the trades union
movement has kept and proposes to
keep pace with the rapid changing
industrial affairs and that the working
people cannot hope to maintain their
rights or progressive position in the
varying phases of modern society UNI
less the organize. exercise all those
functions, which, as workmen and cit
liens, 1t is their privilege and their
duty to exercise.
1t is declared that the labor makes
no demand on government and society
which is not equally accorded to all
the people of this country and that 1T
can and will be satisfied with nothing
less"
The proposed campaign is based up
on the allegation that little attention
has been paid to the enactment of
laws prepared by organized labor and
presented to congress, for the relief
of those wrongs and the attainment
Of those rights to which labor and the
common people are justly entitled
and which are essentially necessary
for their welfare.
The council issues a word of eau
ton that the movement must not de-
generate into scramble for office, but
1T should be a determined effort, free
absolutely from all partisanship Of
every name and character to secure
the legislation we deem necessary and
to the welfare and happi- |
ness of all our people.
II is expressly stated that where any
or state legislator has |
proven himself true friend to the |
rights of labor, he should be support
ed and no candidate nominated against |
him."

AT THE SUMMER HOTEL.
Experience of Winston Churchill Fa-
 mIiar to Many.

Winston Churchill in an address that he made in Concord recently praised the New Hampshire farmer.
 Ours, he said, "is a state fitted above all others for summer resort New Hampshire, with it's superb eli mate, it's mountains, it's lakes and forests, will in a generation or two be one great pleasure ground-a vast park, dotted with beautiful villas, to which will come each summer fam lilies from all parts of America.
 Tn anticipation of this many farm CTS are learning to conduct hotels. They are building cottages for sum- mer visitors. Some of them, too, are taking boarders.
 And l am glad to say that the New Hampshire farmer is in position to take boarders, because. unlike the farmers in other states that I could name, he does not send all his good things to the city. I once boarded at fine big farm. but the fare was wretched-canned vegetables, con- densed milk and so on
 By love- I said one morning at breakfast, as I pushed my egg cup from me, these eggs are really not as fresh as those I get in New York
 My farmer host snorted.
 That's rank prejudice on your part. Mir. Churchill, he said. Its from New York that all our eggs come.'"

Golum. al the door of the Colum undertaking establishment. 505 East Washington avenue Argenta. on the night of O. tober G. The negroes were at large at last accounts. They escaped by locking the doors of the rear rooms of their establishment just after the shooting to cause those who gathered to believe they were still in the build ing They evidently got out of the building within a few minutes after the first shots were fired. The two men are believed to have gone toward Menifee. where they formerly lived. The house was dynamited by the of ficers but no one was found therein. The killing was the echo of a tragedy of some weeks before, when one of the Colums was killed. H.

The negro did not confess nor did he make any statement. He was seemingly so badly frightened that the only words he uttered were "Oh. Lordy. On, Lordy," Blackburn was strung up to a telegraph pole, rope about fifty feet in length being thrown over the cross-aTm at the top of the pole, and the victim of the mob being drawn up about half way to the cross-beam. Shortly after he was strung up some fifteen or twenty shots were fired at him, and many of the bullets took effect in his body.

NERVOUS DEBILITY
Scranton Woman Tells How Or. Williams Pink Pil,s Made Her
 Well and Stronq.

Nervous debility is the common name Tor what the doctors term neurasthenia. IL Is characterized by mental depression, hts ot the "blueS, or melancholy, loss ot energy and spirits. The patient x eyes become dull, the pink fades from the cheeks, the memory becomes defective SO that It Is difficult to recall dates and names nj will. Some of these svmptoms only may be present or all Of them, The remedy lies in toning up the nervous system and there is no medicine better adapted for this purpose than Dr. Williams Pink Pills.
 Mrs. Jane J. Davies, of No. 3l4 War ren street, Scranton, Pa, says: "Some years ago l became greatly reduced in health and strength and my nervous system became so debilitated that felt wretehed. could not rest or sleep well at night and woke up as weary and languld Ill the morning as 1 was when I went to bed. My head ached in the morning and often there was q pain in my right side which was worse when I sat down. My nerves were on edge all the time, every littlesnoise bothered me and l was generally miserable Then I decided to try Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People, as my husband had taken them with good results. and they did wonders for me. Now I have no more pain Ill my side, no more headaches, I sleep well and feel strong and able to do my work.'
 Dr Williams Pink Pills cured Mrs. Davies and they can do just as much for other weak, pale. ailng men or women who are slipping into hopeless decline. They strike straight at the root of all common diseases caused by poor and impoverished blood
 Dr Williams Pink Pills are sold by all druggists. or will be sent postpaid, on receipt of price, 30 cents per box, six boxes for $2 90, by the Dr. Williams Medicine O., Schenectady. NY.
