Two Have Been Absorbed.

There have been two absorptions by
strong of weak institutions during the
past few years. which has tended to make
local conditions more satisfactory The
first of these was the taking over of the
control of the old Bank of Commerce by
the Commercial National bank. and the
other was the purchase of the T. r.
Jones e. Co. Institution by Mccormick $
bank. While neither of these consolidated
banks were in any immediate danger of
collapse at the time of their purchase by
the stronger Institutions it was feared in
some circles that they were not as
healthy as they should be. and their
absorption was universally regarded as
a good thing for the community.
Opinion of n. S. Young.
In speaking of the local Institutions, II.
s. Young. cashier of the Deseret National
bank. said:
salt Lake banks. as far as my OBJ
servation goes. are most conservatively
managed and are absolutely safe. The
city has indeed been fortunate in the
small number of failures that have oc-
CURED during the past seventeen years
and believe that the conditions now ex-
listing will continue indefinitely"

EAT WHAT YOU WANT.
Science Has Now Found the T1ue
Way TO Cure Indigestion.

Science Has Now Found the True
Way to Cure Indigestion.
A few years ago, when a sufferer
from Indigestion went to a stomach
specialist, the result was a rigid diet
list that almost meanut starvation.
But the first thing to be done in
the case of Indigestion or stomach
weakness Is to strengthen the muscu-
lar walls of the stomach and intes-
tines, so that they will care for the
food that is eaten. In no other
way can this be done as well as by
taking a Mi-o-na tablet before each
neal This restores strength to the
stomach muscles and stimulates the
pouring out of gastric juices, so that
the food is digested readily and its
nourishment retained in the system
to build up energy and vitality.
Do not think the sick headache.
heartburn, bad taste in the mouth.
coated tongue, spots before the eyes.
sleeplessness and the many other
symptoms that are the derict result
OF indigestion. will go away of them
selves. The stomach must be built
up and strengthened by Mi-o-na be-
fore you can be well and strong, free
from suffering and distress.
In many of the best homes in PEN
dleton and adjoining towns, the
handy little Mi-o-na tablets, so pleas
ant to take, yet so effective, have
given quick and lasting relief from
indigestion and that disagreeable full
feeling after eating.
The guarantee that Tallman &
company give with every 50-cent box
Of Mi-o-na, to refund the money
unless the remedy cures, shows their
in the treatment. Tall
man & Co. take the whole risk, and
Mi-o-na will not cost you a penny
unless 1t cures.

A careful estimate of the cost of
coal at the mine and subsequent
chrges of profit to the mine owner
freight, carriage, handling and inter-
est shows that the consumers should
get their coal at $40 a ton, where
as they are now paying the fuel com
panies 50 per ton. Here is a direct
saving of over so per cent as a re-
suit of the cooperative movement.
A similar plan is being developed
In Portland, where cooperative

Therefore, Be 1t Resolved, That tho

titled to the support of the electors
of this state updess he is broad
