A Mistake Corrected.

1t is a mistake to combine in the same
remedy both stomach and liver medicines,
because the stomach is not always out OF
order when the liver is, or vica versa.
While it is true that these organs are SO
closely related that when one is affected
the other is likely to be also, still there
are times when one is affected and the
other is not. 1t is serious error to
give a liver medicine combined with q
stomach medicine when the stomach only
needs treatment, and it is not necessary
to treat the stomach VIXEN the liver only
is disordered. Rydale's method is the
most sensible one. He does not combine
the two. but makes a tablet for the
stomach and tablet for the liver, which
can be combined if necessary. Guaran-
teed by DR.. James X. Waters.

BIG SLATE PROJECT.
Land Leased Near WoOdsborO, Work
Soon To Begin.

Soon To Begin.
Charles w. Dorcus has leased for q
period of fifty years, his farm, located
along the Liberty road, near WoodsDoro,
to VIM. F. Robertson and Jacob Ohmit,
of York county, Pa, for the purpose Of
developing, exploring and mining slate
copper and other minerals, for the man
ufacture of brick, etc. There is every
prospect of large deposit of slate of .
high grade on this farm, immense quaint.
tiles of which are cropping out from the
surface of the earth, and the prospect.
ors believe that slate for market pur.
poses for the next 100 years can be mined
on this farm.
It is also believed that the soil is pecu.
liarly adapted to the manufacture of a
high quality of brick, and if this proves
correct, large brick plant will also be
established here.
The contract calls for work to begin
before July l. The company is said to
be strong financially and if the slate
proves as valuable as it is supposed it
will, a SIS, 900 plant will be put up. A.
mong the other projects of the promoters
is the extension of the railroad, by
means of branch line, from Woodsboro
to the mines. The company expects to
employ large number of hands. We
hope for their success, as it means much
for the community in general. Banner.

Subpoena Editor
FOR ALLEGED INTERVIEW
IN GALVESTON PAPER
IntervieWsWdS Published as Fake
and Senator Foraker Lost
an Opportunity.

Washington, March 1S.-Chairman
Warren, of the senate committee on
military affairs, which is investigat-
ing the Brownsville tragedy. today
received from Secretary Taft a copy
of a dispatch from San Antonio,
Texas, as follows:
"Adjutant General United states
Army, Washington The chief of po-
lice at Galveston, Texas, has just
wired me that the confession of Gray,
supposed discharged soldier, appear
Ing in the papers, is a fake.
"BLOCKSOM, Major"
VIII Subpoena Editor.
The dispatch related to an alleged
confession printed in the Galveston
News. Foraker, who is taking the
leading role in the defense of the ne
gro soldiers, said today that he would
order subpoena for the editor of the
Galveston News, in order to secure a
statement concerning the story.
Foraker Too Previous.
The statement that Foraker would
subpoena the editor of the Galveston
News was made before he had seen
the dispatch from Major Blocksom.
After having been shown the dispatch
Foraker said that probably it would
not be necessary to call the editor of
the Galveston paper, in view of the
admission that the story of Gray )
confession was fake.

WOMAN'S ARMY TO BES|EGE
LEGISLATURE OF ILLINOIS
Mrs. MoSier Proposes Organization of

Springfield, Ill, March 1S.-"My
mission is to organize the drunkards'
wives, mothers, sisters and daugh-

will be done away with. The Lord

In these words, Mrs Fannie Mo-

strong drink, explains the life work

II can hardly understand 1.-THE
reason the hundreds of women In
Springfield who have lost husbands,
sons and brothers through the drink
curse, permit this thing to go on. l
can explain 1t in a way, too. Some
of them have babies and can't go;
some haven't the grit to go, but with
most it IS just downright careless
ness.
Mrs, Mosier's plan to force the
present general assembly to pass the
local option bill is a novel one.
She hopes to organize an army of
women who have suffered indirectly

received in the house at 10 o'clock
this morning, and the chief clerk be-
gan reading 1t at once. At 1880
o'clock he had not finished. being
then engaged In going through the
mass of testimony collected by the
committee, and the house went into
recess until p. m. The reading was
resumed as soon as the house met this
afternoon.
The principal points of the report
are that the governors act, more than
the transaction itself, was not in ac-
cordance with law, and that after as
certaining such to be the fact, he con-
cluded the deal, usurping the rights
of the office of commissioner of public
lands, using the seal of the Office and
sealing and delivering the deeds TO

Appropriation Bill Was Defeated

Santa Fe, n. NJ, March 1S.-If it
has done nothing else, the present
house of the 37th legislative assem-
bly, has at least gone on record for
the people as wanting to know for
the people" the hows and why's OF
official life in the capital.
The house is all right. 1t stands
together on matters of legislation and
it stands eighteen strong now for
every act of interest to the people.
Mr. Lucero Montoya of Bernalillo
county, who despite the fact that he
had been herded night and day by
the erratic Capt. Ruppe, has seen the
error of his ways and in these last
days of the assembly is actually
working to do something for the
county of Bernalillo.
The house will investigate. 1t will
learn and then the people will know.
1t may hurt in some quarters but
nevertheless the action is meeting
with general approval from the peo-
pie of all parts of the territory and
of all political beliefs.
