AMERICAN SOCIETY OF
EQUITY TAKES ACTION.
Meet at OWenSbOrO and Have a Campaign
Citizens IndOrSe the Farmers Plans
Other Notes About the Growers

A delegation from the Green River
Tobacco Growers Association of the
American Society of Equity, nearly 500
strong, representing five counties of the
Green river district, met in Owensboro
Tuesday morning of last week and
( spent the day and night organizing and
mapping out a campaign. The sole OBJ
ject of their meeting was to formulate
plans to prevent the 1907 crop of to-
bacco being placed on the market while
tobacco of the 1905 and 1906 crops
pooled by members of the A. S. of E.,
is unsold, and the aim was not to dis
band until thorough canvass had been
made of the five counties to ask every
farmer to pledge his crop, and to re-
quest all the largest tobacco factories
in Owensboro to Immediately recall
their buyers who were going over the
district making contracts for thousands
of pounds of this year S crop of tobacco.
On Wednesday morning the farmers
army was divided into four detach-
ments, each under the command of a
captain and with a definite line of
march mapped out, started from the
courthouse, unarmed and in peaceful
state, to carry out their plans.
Headed by their newly elected gen
eral, L. E. Robertson, State organizer
of the A. S. of E., they visited the fol-
lowing factories: The Imperial, Gal
laher, limited, American, ]. NJ. Vaughn
and Frank Birk.
The growers were successful and by
Thursday the largest companies an
nounced that they had recalled all of
/, their buyers and would not send them
out again until the present agitation
had quieted down.
The work of visiting the homes of the
farmers who had not pooled their to-
bacco, was kept up until Saturday, and
most all the territory in Daviess county
was covered by the different armies of
the A. S. of E., most of them having
great success in getting all those who
had not pooled their tobacco to sign
pledges to do so.
Monday a number of recruits were
enlisted, and the army left Greensboro
and started for Mclean county. Nothing
has been made public as to whether or
not a second campaign will be made in
Daviess.

Thomas A. Edison, the great Amer
can inventor, says: "Fullv eighty per
cent. of the illness of mankind comes
from eating improper food or too much
food; people are inclined to over-in-
duge themselves This is where in
digestion finds its beginning in nearly
every case. The stomach can do just
so much work and no more, aud when
you overload it, or when you eat the
wrong kind of food, the digestive organs
cannot possibly do the work demanded
of them. II is at such times that the
stomach needs help; it demands help,
and warns you by headaches, belching,
sour stomach, nausea and indigestion.
You should attend to this at once 10y
taking something that will actually do
the work for the stomach. Kodol will
do this. 1t is a combination of natural
digestants and vegetable acids and con-
tains the same juices found in healthy

WIN II Strike Baxter!

Fort Scott, May Eight sur
veyors, admitting that they are
in the employ of the Hartman
interests which are to build the
Missouri 4 Gulf railway, are
near Fort Scott at the present
time. They are here for the pur-
pose of surveying a straight line
from Fort Scott to Pittsburg.
This is the second time the men
have made the line and they pro-
pose this time to have it straight
as the crow flies.
There has been many wild ru-
mors as to who these surveyors
were. but the facts in the case
are precisely as stated last fall
when the surveyors worked into
Fort Scott from Kansas City. 1t
was stated at that time that the
Hartman interests were to build
new road and there is now no
doubt but that this is to be done.
1t is the intention of Hartman
to have his new road as near
straight as possible, even more
straight than the Pacific & Gulf
road. and with this end in view
the men are going over the
groud for the second ting. This
time they are working north aud
in a few days more will be back
in Fort Scott.
