SUPERINTENDENT STocKwELL is

makes the schools more effective
and has been alert early and late

large experience he is exception

for which he is a candidate.

A few days ago Mr.. Hanna.
formally opened his campaignand
the Forum, in reporting the
meeting, says:
The chairman then introduced
Hon. L. B. Hanna Of Fargo,
candidate for member Of congress
on the republican ticket. Senator.
Hanna delivered a plain and most
convincing address, during the
progress of which he was FREE
quently applauded, The audi
ence was a representative one and
was deeply interested. The
speaker spoke Of his early coming
to the state, and of his personal
experiences from a business mans
standpoint. He ably reviewed
the present financial crisis, and.
advocated federal legislation to
secure the circulation Of asset cur
rency in emergencies like the
present.
He contended the federal gov
eminent must regulate railways
and corporations. Its impossible
for the state to do this on account
Of the conflict in the laws of the
various states. Rebates can make
or ruin a business man. A rail-
road ought not to be allowed to
issue its stock indiscriminately.
They should show what they are
going to do with the money.
The speaker then reviewed the
ownership Of railways BY the
French government. The rail-
roads can ruin or bless.
The money is invested in rail-
roads by numerous classes of
citizens. It is not fair, the
speaker claimed, to place the con
troll of large corporations in the
hands Of a few men.
Senator McCumber's grain
grading bill was endorsed by Mr..
Hanna, who called attention to
some of the injustices of the pres
ent system.
In reference to his candidacy
for congress. Mr., Hanna said:
"A man going to the state legis-
lature or congress goes as the
servant of the people. He should
have a conscience, and allow his
conscience to lead him to honest
public service. Should the people,
of whom you form q part, elect
me to serve them in congress,
then ! pledge my word to do all
n can to serve the people, and
thus merit the confidence and
high honor, in the line IF public
duty, committed 70 my trust"

NOTABLE MEDICAL DISCOVERY
0f Special Value to Many
 Here in MontQomery.

One of the most notable discoveries and one that undoubtedly appeals moro than anything else to many people here in Montgomery, is the combination of stomach remedies in the Mi-o-na treat ment sThis prescription has worked wonders, and there is now no excuse for anyone suffering with indigestion or weak stomach.
 It acts specifically upon the muscles of the stomach and bowels, strength ening and stimulating them so that they readily take care of the food that is eaten. It also increases the flow of gastric juices, thus getting from the food the nourishment that Is neces- sary for health and energy.
 The symptoms of indigestion are numerous, such as distress after eat ing, .flatulence. hea, burn. sick head aches, dizziness and irritability. These are all dispelled by a few doses of Nil o-na when the trouble is recent, but just as surely in long standing and chronic cases if the treatment Is fol- lowed for a reasonable length of time. So positive are the good effects fol- lowing the use of Mi-o-na that the remedy is sold by F. C.. Fowler under an absolute guarantee to refund the monev 1 1t should fail to cure.
