Doctors and Remedies FruitIess-Suf-
fered Ten Yeara-CompleteIy Cured
by Cuticura.
Small sores appeared Oh each of my
lower limbs and shortly afterwards
they became so sore that | could
scarcely walk. The sores began to heal,
but small scaly eruptions appeared. The
itching was so severe that 1 would
scratch the sores until the blood be-
gan to flow. After l suffered thus
about ten years l made a renewed eff
fort TO effect a cure. The eruptions by
this time had appeared on every, part
of my body except my face and hands.
The best doctor in my native county
and many remedies gave no relief. All
this was fruitless. Finally my hair be-
gan 10 fall out and l was rapidly be-
coming bald \ few months after,
having used almost everything else, l
thouge | would try Cuticura Ointment
and Cuticura Soap. After using three
boxes l was completely cured, and my
hair was restored, after fourteen years
of suffering and an expenditure of at
least 500 or $50 in vainly endeavoring to
find a cure. b. Hiram Mattingly, Yer

IS THIS A TRAP?

Having found that the federal gov

bua willing Regulate them, the cor
pGAations al now clamoring for the
%newed assertion of state rights. In
Il Ne very beginning of this contro-
Ersy the corporations removed all
their cases to the federal courts on
the ground that the states had not
the right to control them and pass
upon the issues involved The trend
OF the decisions, followed by the Wig
orous grasping Of the situation by
congress ana the administration,
being against them, the corporations
have back-tracked and now mlemand
that the states shall be alloTN that
control of them that is guaraN eeu
by the constitution.
It is hardly needed to say at
this is a false pretene. AS The NJ rs
pointed out IN the earliest stage "
the discussion, the states cam Ut
handle the problem. 1t is as a
man having COMMITTED an ord BE
against the Law his eyes should be
tried in one coHt, his hand in an
other, his legs in third, and so on
throughout the list of members Of his
body. 1t is certain that in order to
get any good out of the procedure
the whole man must be tried all to
gether, and the court must be ade-
quate to the case.
So with the big corporations.
They must be confronted and con
trolled by power equal to the task.
The only ouch power in this country
is the fed ral government, and that
SEE les th6 base of operations Even

to vunder Ike the task their action
would subsequently need to be re-
viewed byN the federal courts, and

ginning Al them the process Of en-
forcins Regulations is made brief and

The suggestion that the democratic
Earty make its leading proclamation
of principles in 1908 the revision OF
the tariff and the resumption of
states rights has no other object
than to play into the hands Of the
corporations and release from their
threats the only hand in the world
strong enough to throttle them away
from the throats of the people.
Should the suggestion be adopted
there will be no more democratic
party. The country knows what it
wants. and If the democracy should
formally announce that the only way
to get 1t is by the agency of repub-
licans, the entire country will be-
come republican on the instant. The
politicians and organs would have
sacrificed their party as vainly as
Napoleon threw in the Old Guard at
Waterloo. We might as well look at
these things sensibly and in the
light of the facts in the case.
