State and Federal Authority.

This should be determined and decided
by some rule and classification to be de-
vised by the commission already pro-
posed.
The conflicts between the state and
federal authority raised in many states
over railroad rates, being now under
adjudication and under way to a final and
ultimate decision by the federal Supreme
Court. this conference deems the express
sion of any opinion on these issues unfit
ting. and confidently leaves this great is
sue to tribunal which for 11S years has
successfully preserved the balance be-
tween an indissouble union and inde-
structible states, defining the supreme and
national powers of the one, and protect
ing the sovereign and individual powers
of the other.
The resolutions were adopted As read,
after which the conference adjourned sine

To Make a Thorough Inquiry.

4. Such commission should make a thor
ough inquiry into the advisability of in
augurating a system of federal license
or incorporation as condition for the
entrance of certain classes of corpora
tions upon Interstate commerce, and also
into the relation to the public interest of
the purchase by one corporation of the
franchises or corporate stock of another
On no one of these subjects must what
has been gained be sacrificed until some
thing better appears for enactment.
On each of these the conference recog-
nizes differences between good men. On
all 1t asks a national, non-partisan COM
mission to be appointed next winter to
consider the question and report at the
second session of the approaching Con-
gress for such action as the national legis-
lature. In the light of this full investiga-
ton, may enact.
The examination, inspection and super

Catarrh of
the Stomach
A Most Dangerous Disease, Which
Causes Serious Results, Unless
Properly Treated.

Catarrh of the Stomach is very common
and is known as one of the most obstinate
diseases, which, when neglected or i'm
properly treated with cheap patent med
icines, tonics, drugs. pills and other Sc
cret quack remedies results in a broken
down constitution and often consumption
and death.
Catarrh of the Stomach, like every 9TH
er disease of the stomach, except cancer,
is the result of poor digestion. The d.
gestive organs have become weak there
is a lack of gastric juice. your food is
only half digeSted and as a result you
become affected with loss of appetite,
pressure and fullnesS after eating, heart
burn, vomiting, WaterbraSh, tenderness at
pit of stomach, Shiny tongue. bad taste
in the mouth, constipation, pain in limbs
and face, sleepiessness, nausea, belchng
of gas diarrhoea, sick headaches, dizzi-
ness, mental depression, nervous weak
ness, and many other common symptoms.
If your stomach cannot digest the food
YOU eat. then the stomach needs rest.
as that is the only way you can ger rid
of your catarrh, but in the meantime your
body needs plenty of nourishment. be-
cause you must live and in order to live
you must eat and if you must eat your
food must be properly digested. and if
your stomach is too weak to do the work
then you must get a substitute that will
do the work.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the only
known substitute that will digest your
food as well as any healthy stomach. They
contain vegetable and fruit essences,
aseptic pepsin gov. etst, golden seal
and diastase, the very elements necessary
to digest all foods.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are not a Sc
cret remedy and for that very reason
thousands of physicians all over the Unit
ed States recommend them to their pa
tents for catarrh OF the stomach. dys-
pepsia of all kinds. and other stomach
troubles Experiments and tests have

CONTRACTORS KICKING
FOR CASH PAYMENTS
Especial to The Herald.1

Washington, ID. c., Nov. 7-Contractors
on government reclamation projects are
overwhelming the interior department
with demands for cash payments because
the western banks refuse to cash large
government warrants.
The reclamation service is doing every
thing possible to aid the contractors, but
advises them to accept government war
rants and forward them to tine San Fran
cisco sub-treasury, where currency or coin
can be obtained. In a few instances mon
ey is being sent by express. in other cases
payments are being divided up into small
checks not TO exceed $50.

Meeting of Magnates.

The president was further informed that
after disarmament. by order of the court
OF the General Paper company. various
meetings of eastern and western manu-
facturers have been held to stimulate
prices and TO limit the contract period.
A conference OF eastern manufacturers
was held in New York during the first
week of September last. when the advance
in price was decided upon. Since that
time manufacturers who had previously
solicited the business of various .newspa-
pers had withdrawn all quotations. Pub
fishers who apply for quotations realize
that in some intangible way their supply
has been predetermined and the price they
are to pay also arranged for them. In
each case, the statement stated, the pub
Usher received bids. but the paper was
held at a prohibitory price. He also finds
that he has no remedy against the supply
of inferior paper. Publishers who make
inquiry of one mill find that the others
have been advised of that inquiry. New
selling agencies. representing an aggre-
CATION of previously independent mills,
have merged the output of those mills.

advances on the part of the paper makers
is that the cost of wood and labor has
increased. This excuse was met in the
argument to the president by the state
ment that the published report of the

administration and sales, as about GA

Tariff Made the Trust.

The president was told that the present
plan of increasing the price of paper
had its inception twelve years ago in a
proposition to unite the paper mills into
one pool or corporation.
The first step in the program was. it

moters induced congress to fix a tariff
duty of Sc a ton for news-print paper. 1t

has promised to urge congress to repeal

Source of Supply Diverted.

The source or supply of numerous news
papers has been arbitrarily diverted from
one mill to another without the consent
of the publisher. Jobbers who apply to
selling agents or to mills for quotations
are forced to disclose the name of the
customer and the purpose for which the
paper is to be used. When this disclosure
is made jobbers find that satisfactory
quotations can be obtained from but one
mill I'm the country. Mill men and paper
statesmen have admitted that an agreed
scale had been adopted.
1t was represented that Canadian mills
can and do pay the Sc per ton duty and
still find it profitable to sell in the United
States. At the same time the American
mills are selling abroad in competition
with Canada. Great Britain, Germany and
Norway. 1t was stated to the president
that paper makers operating fairly
equipped mills have made large profits
during the past ten years at prices aver
aging less than $40 per ton. and that a
selling price of between $50 and $50 per ton
as now proposed would mean q daily tri-
butte of $4,000 paid by the paper consum-
ers to the alleged combination.

The returning strikers will only be re-

ed with applicants who sought to regain
their old positions. None were accepted,
however; the company, according to its
statement having brought its force up
to the original quota Tuesday. By IL

full and no more names were taken.
About 200 former employees of the Post

places here were told that all vacancies
had been filled.

in securing unemployment with the COM
panies. The men walked out Aug T.
