LOBSTER UNIONS ENTER POLITICS

Muncie, Ind, Sept, 23.-Plans for
 ,o complete organization of the or
 ranized workmen of the state along
 no1itical lines will be considered and
 nrobably adopted during the annual
 Convention of the Indiana Fedora tion of Labor, which commenced a
 four day session here today.lt is fine purpose of the Federation, ac- cording to President Edgar A. Per kins to provide a state committee of approximately 7,500 union men. The duties of this committee will he TO secure the nomination and election of men to the state legisla ture and congress who will bring about the legislation desired by la bor unions. Along the lines of na- tional legislation, the principal de- mand will be for an anti-injunction measure and an eight hour law.
 The state plan of organization is along the lines of that already sue cessfully adopted by the Indianapo- lis Central Union. That body has a committee of five to look after it's political interests. It is proposed that each local union in the state shall appoint a committee of five members, and that these commit tees shall work together to secure labor legislation by the election of men friendly to the union interests. As there are over 1,500 local un- ions of the various trades in Indiana the total strength of the labor po- litical committee would exceed 75OO.

SITUATION VERY UNUSUAL.
PRESENT STRENUOUS TRAFFIC
CONDITION WITHOUT A
PARALLEL
Veteran Railroad Man Says all Will
be Glad When Conditions are
Normal.

A railroad official who is a veteran
in the service says he has never be-
fore known a parallel for the present
strenuous traffic situation. This has
been brought about in connection with
the new conditions under the Hep
burn law and the anti-railroad legis-
lation in many states. There have
been times when hard work and close
application were compelled but these
times have been of reasonable dura-
ton. The conditions of late have
been practically severe on the men
connected with the traffic department.
Committee meetings and executive
conferences have been frequent. More
travelling has been necessitated and a
close study of its manifold features
and exactions have been imperative,
he says.
las we are all DESTROYS of obeying
the law in spirit and letter. he said,
fear of error and oversight has caus-
ed anxiety and the Encouragement of
tariffs and the working out of rate
propositions has imposed great men
tai and physical strain. We shall all
be relieved and grateful when nor
NAL conditions are restored.

Send1n6 Truth litter a Lie.
Verdict for DR.. Pierce
AGAINST THE
Ladies' Home Journal.
Or. PIERCE'S TPADUCERS COME
TO GRIEF.

It is an old maxim that "a lie will
travel seven leagues while truth is get
ting it's boots on,o and no doubt hun
dreds of thousands OF good people read
the unwarranted and malicious attack
upon DIR. r. V. Pierce and his Favor
tie Prescription" Published in the Mny
(1904) number of the Ladies' Home
Journal, with its great black display
headings, who never saw the humble,
groveling retraction, with It's inconspic-
nous heading, published tao months
later. 1t was boldly charged in the
elanderous and Ibelous article that
DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription con-
tanned alcohol and other harmful in
gradients. DR.. Pierce promptly brought
suit against the Curtis Publishing Com
pany, publishers of the Ladies' Home
Journal. The suit was for $500, 900 90
damages.
DR.. Pierce alleged that Mr.. Box, the
editor, maliciously published the arti-
Gle containing such false and defama-
tory matter with the intent of injur-
ing his business furthermore, that no
alcohol, or other injurious, or habit
forming, drugs are, or ever were,
contained il his i" Fayorite Prescrip-
ton y; that said medicine is made from
native medicinal roots and contains no
harmful ingredients whatever, and that
Mr.. Bok's malicious statements were
Tholfy and absolutely false.
In the retraction printed by said
Journal they were forced TO acknowl-
edge that they had obtained analyses
of sFavorite Prescription" from
eminent chemists, all of whom certi-
fled that it did not contain alcohol or
any of the alleged harmful drugs
These facts also came out in the trial of
the action in the Supreme Court. But
the business of DR.. Pierce wac greatly
injured from the effect OF the publication
of the original libel with its great dis
play headings, while hundreds of thou
sands who read the original wickedly
defamatory article never saw the hum
bic groveling retraction, set in small
type and made as inccnspicuous as pos
sibIe. The matter was, however brought
before a jury in the Supreme Court OF
New York State which promptly rem
dered verdict IN the Doctors favor.
Thus his traducers came to grief Their
base ISLANDERS were refuted and they
were obliged TO Feat humble pie-s
During the trial OF the libel suit Dr.
Lee Fl. Smith, Nice-President OF the
World g Dispensary Medical Association,
stated under oath that the ingredients
of Doctor Pierce's Favorite Prescription
were wholly extracted from the follow
ing native roots; Golden Seal, Blue
Cohosh, Lady's Slipper, Black Cohosh
and Unicorn by means of pure glycerine
OF proper strength. He was asked how
he knew, as physician and experienced
medical man, that the "Eayorite Pre-
scriptIon" was q cure for the diseases
peculiar to women, such az female

THE AMERICAN HABIT
One in Every Three Affected.

Of the 10000 900 people in the Unit
ed States, it is estimated that 25,00o.-
900, or one in every three, is partially
disabled from a broken down nervous
system. America is the greatest con-
sumner of coffee in the world. Can
you draw the correct Inference from
these two facts?
Many a person will exclaim, Non
sense 1t is easy for any thought
less person to jump at a conclusion
that a philosopher would study care
fully over before reaching. Think Of
the members of your own family. How
many of them are perfectly and COM
pletely we'll in every respect? How
many of your friends are perfectly
healthy? Inquire of them and you
will be surprised to learn that the av-
erage of one in every three. who are
sick, in the main, stands true. Health
depends, primarily, upon a perfectly
poised nervous organization, and the
greatest known enemy to the nervous
system is coffee. Its active principle
is caffeine, which is a pronounced
nerve destroyer The action is, first,
to attack the stomach, then the pneu-
mogastric nerve which lies behind the
stomach and which is directly con-
nected with the brain.
The disordered condition passes
thence from the brain to all parts Of
the body, and in some it will show IN
trepidation well known nervous con-
dition); in others this is hidden, but

FREIGHT RATE INCREASE.

Among local shippers there is a
general belief prevailing that the
Pennsylvania is contemplating an adj
vance in freight rates to take effect
about July l. The reasons for the
proposed increase are many, the
most important of course being re-
cent increase in wages to nearly ali
classes of railroad men. Again there
has been a heavy increase in the cost
of railway supplies and equipment and
the roads are still in need of more
equipment.
