Have You Spring Feyer2

Warm, sultry days. like those we
have had the past few days, bring
out the tired, rundown, spring fever
conditions in the most healthy. We
feel drowsy most of the time, indiffer-
ent to everything, sometimes have
dull headaches, and are tout OF
sorts" generally.
This is a condition incident to the
first warm weather, but, 1t is merely
natures warning to get in fit con-
dition for the warm season ahead
The condition is due to a sluggish
liver, deranged digestive functions
or probably deranged kidneys. 1t Is
easily and quickly cured, If taken In
hand In time.
The osteopathic treatment is the
sane, rational, most effective cure
for such ailments. Several treat
ments in the dry hot air machine. fol-
lowed by the osteopathic treatment
eradicates the condition. 1t stimu-
lates every function, the liver. and
stomach and bowels, the kidneys and
blood, the heart action, and does II
without resort to drugs of any sort
just osteopathy.
/ should like for you to investi-
gate osteopathy. It is a new science
in healing, but, there is nothing oc-
cult about it.-merely scientific
manipulation to restore a deranged
function to normal activity. and to
give tone to all the organs of the
body.

For Reciprocal Demurrape.

Declaring for the principle of re-
ciprocal demurrage and calling upon
all congressman in Kentucky and Ter
nessee to support any measure intro.
duced in congress toward that end
the Kentucky-Tennessee Retail Coal
Merchants association this morning
decided to join the National Freight
association as the best means to Sc
cure their object 1t is probable that
a bill will be introduced in congress
next fall along this and other lines
of legislation that would be benefc-
ial to the coal trade. George Cary
Tabb, secretary of the association,
was reelected to that position in a
meeting of the directors, after the
duties of the Office had been distrib-
uted. Instead of the secretary MAX
ing trips over the two states looking
after the business of the organiza
ton, and especially the membership,
it was decided that committeeman
should be appointed from each CON
gressional district to handle this part
of the secretary's duties in that terri
tory. These committeeman will be
appointed by the president and direc-
tors, and a meeting of the directors
to select these committeeman was
held this afternoon. No change was
made in the secretary's salary when
this arrangement was made. 1t Will
leave Secretary Tabb free to look
after the larger interests of the asso-
citation.
The question of weights was de-
ferred until the next annual conven-
ton to,allow a committee to get data.
By retrenching in the expenses of
the association it was found that the
present scale of dues would be sufl-
cient to run the organization. On re-
quest of President C. R. Roth, Mr..
w. c. Williams was in the chair at
today's session. Resolutions thank
ing the entertainment committee for
their royal reception, President VIII
liams and the other retiring officers
for their services. and the city for
the cordial welcome, were passed and

been known to sway in the breeze Of
public opinion, grave judges have
lost their balance under such pres
sure, and popular assemblages are
but the registers of the state of pub
lie feeling. Executives usually excuse
by giving away to popu-
lar clamor. Just now railroad rate
reduction is the fad. We would not
be convicted of opposition to such
movement on this statement. The
expression is directed TO the method
not the purpose of the legislation.
New York's general assembly has fol
lowed the example in other states
and enacted a two-cent fare law.
Governor Hughes vetoed it and he
gives as his reason, not the uncon-
stitutionality of the measure, not the
positive injustice of it; but the pos
sibility of injustice being done the
railroads, because the Legislators
have not investigated the question.
There's courage for you. Governor
Hughes can get no glory from his ac-
ton: for it is directly in the face of
a popular demand. He himself prob
ably favors the idea; but he demands
that the thing be done in the right
way. Governor Hughes makes lots OF
us ashamed of ourselves by his con-
duct in Office.

TO SAVE HIS LIFE
ORCHARD SPEAKS
This is Contention of Defense
in Haywood Case
Counsel Turns Suddenly To Show
What Inducements Were Ex-
tended To Assassin.
HERO PRISONER IN THE JAIL

Boise, Idaho, June IL The men
who are battling to save the life Of
William ID. Haywood and the good
name of the Western Federation Of
Miners made their greatest assault
upon Harry Orchard today, when
carrying their review. by cross ex-
animation, of his life of crime down
to his confession. they bitterly as
sailed his guiding motives.
Six days they spent in stripping
him before the jury, of every shred
of morality of character, and then,
suddenly turning upon him in a final
fierce attack. they fought with every
means known to legal craft to con-
vince the jury that Orchard was com
hitting a crime in falsely swearing
away the lives of innocent men in
hope of saving his own.
He defended his motives by saying
he had finally experienced CONVEX
sion and pentinence and had resolved
to make all possible reparation by
freely confessing all Mcfarland had
told him he was doing a great service
for the state, and that states were
kind to me who served them; there
were no other promises.
For hours the defenses hammered
away on the motive of his own life.
They sought to show 1t is force of
example drawn from immunity of
informers in the Mollie MCGUIRE cas-
es but this the witness would not ad-
NIT.
Next they sought for it in Orch
ards effort to bring Steve Adams to
the state and then in subsequent
meeting with MCFARLAND and Gov
ernor Gooding.
Once again they emphasized the
fact that the witness had twice writ
ten his testimony out but Orchard re-
PEELED the suggestion that it had been
changed by Mcfarland or anybody
else.
They tried to show him a pamper-
ed, peter, hero-like prisoner fed
from the table OF the warden, adj
dressed as Harry by Governor
Gooding and Warden whitney, Civ
en- freedom and liberties no other
prisoner ever had in the world, and
all this consideration implying di-
rectly that he would never be hanged
for killing steunehberg.

THE GENIAL GENTLEMAN.

1
In the various experiments of gov
ernment-national state and local
America has suffered probably more
from the genial gentleman than from
the original CRATER. As long as the
grafters can get in their work be-
hind the name and position ana
standing Of the genial gentleman he
is rarely disturbed. Things go on
smoothly and the taxpayers pay the
piper. The genial gentleman is not
altogether unconscious of what is be-
ing done, but from his nature he pre-
fers to follow the line of least re-
slstance. and he reoonciles to his con-
science his Indifference upon the as
sumption that he should not engage
in crusade to turn out one line OF
grafters when another more hungry
would come in to take their places.
But now and then a real reformer
breaks into all of these calculations.
Roosevelt becomes president of the
United States, or a Democrat of the
fighting class is elected treasurer of
Pennsylvania, or Governor Hughes is
selected to probe into the insurance
scandals. Then there is mischief TO
lpay. The facts are revealed to the
public. who have the bills to pay, and
popular Indignation is aroused not
only against the organized grating,
not only against the political ma
chimes and their manipulators, but
against the tolerant men, the indif-
ferent men, the genial gentlemen
who for their own peace and comfort
passed by on the other side when
they had seen the political footpads
holding up the long-suffering Amerl-
can taxpayer.
The state treasurer of Pennsylva-
mia. who is in the main responsible
for the exposures of the robbery of
the state of nine million dollars to
furnish a four-million-dollar capitol,
urges that his successor should be a
"polarlzed Democrat of the radical
type"
When any hard work is to be done
the call Is for a radical. When crime
is to be concealed and the men who
lperpetrated it are to be given gen.
eral pardon, then We call on the con-
lservative men, some of whom are
genial and some of whom are satur-
nine; but all OF whom are ready TO
''let bygones be bygones."
Treasurer Berry. of Pennsylvania,
speaks Of "the difficulty of resisting
the temptation TO go along with the
suave, genial fellows in the other
Offices who are so willing to make
things pleasant" The Philadelphia
Record. referring to this state, says
there is no MISLEADING this allusion to
Treasurer Berry's genial omciai as
sOciatlates on the board of public
grounds and buildings. Mr.. Berry
admits that under his persuasive in
fluenee he did Join in the approval of
a miner Sanderson Houston swindle
before he was yet warm in his Office
or had formed a conception Of the
official neglect, complacency and con-
nivance revealed in the palace Of
graft

persuasion the whole system would
soon be cut out. root and branch

A POOR HAIR RESTORER
WAS CAN OF TURPENTINE

Growing hair on his horse by the
application of raw turpentlneHs an
unpleasant experience credited to A.
Pollock, the Broadway jeweler, the
result of a joke. Pollock's horse did
not have a very abundant supply of
hair, and its owner asked a friend
what was good to grow hair on
horses. He received reply that tur-
pentlne was generally used, and
straightway procured a pint bottle
of the fluid. Driving into an alley in
the rear of the Gibson paint store,
he began to apply the fluid literally.
He had not removed his horse from
harness or buggy, and before he had
thoroughly soaked the animal, began
to have trouble.
Jumping fits seized the horse, but
Pollock rubbed away at disadvant-
age. Finally the actions of his horse
alarmed him, and when he failed to
quiet it, he called for aid.
Several brawny negroes answered
the summons and succeeded in un-
hitching the horse. 1t required much
persuasion to induce the little animal
to arise from the ground. where 1t
rolled in burning agony, but finally
the harness was taken off before bro
ken to pieces.
A hurry call was made on ellison,
the paint man, and gallon Of oil
secured to ease the burning horse,
and prevent the strong tfrpentine
from removing what little hair the
animal had left
