ABOLITION OF
TARIFF ON PAPER
is REQUESTED OF PRESIDENT
BY PUBLISHERS.
A STENOGRApHER FAMINE
Government is Short Of Pot Hook
Writers and is Offering Many In
ducements to Fill Vacancies. Bill
to Pension Old Soldiers.

Observation-Disclosures Roosevelt
indicated to the members Of the COM
nittee on paper of the American
Newspaper Publishers Association
that he will recommend to Congress
the abolition of the tariff ON press
paper, wood pulp and the wood that
goes into the manufacture of paper !;
also that he will make a recommen-
dation to the Department of Justice
that it take immediate steps to as
certain whether the antitrust laws
are being disobeyed by the manufac-
turers of paper.
The promise Of the recommends
tions by the President was obtained
afr he had listened to the represen-
tatives of the members of the COM
mittee and to petition from the ma
tional organizations of printers, stere
otypers, pressmen and others, all Of
which set forth the evidence of =
combination On the part of the man
nfactures of paper for the purpose Of
controlling the output, regulating the
greatly increasing price and other
wise making hindersome regulations
governing the source Of supply and
delivery of paper.
The call upon the President was
made In pursuance of. the following
resolution, adopted by the American
Newspaper Publishers Association
at a special meeting held in New
York, Sept. 10. last:
"In view. of the information sub.
nitted to the American Newspaper
Publishers Association by its COM
mittee on paper, indicating that I'M
lawful combinations Of paper-mak-
ers had been accomplished and that
judicial prohibition of such efforts
had been disobeyed, the American
Newspaper Publishers Association,
hereby instructs its committee on pa
per to invite the attention of the
President and Department of JUS
toe to this movement which we re-
gard as conspiracies in restraint Of
trade, and we give this instruction
to the committee in order:
ri. That the authority Of existing
statutes for repression Of trade COM
binations may be invoked.
"2. That the defiance of recent
judicial action prohibiting participa-
ton in such combination by certain
Western mills may be punished.
"3. That the President may be
put into possession of information
which shall equip him to advise con
gress Of the abuse of the tariff ia
vors by paper manufacturers.
Resolved, That it is the sense OF
this meeting that the duty on paper,
wood pulp and all material entering
the manufacture Of printing paper
should be Immediately repealed. l."
The history and facts which make
up the protest were presented by Me-
dill Mccormick of Chicago, after
which the President indicated the ac-
ton he would take. An investigation
OF the so-called paper trust has been
in progress for some time by the De-
partment Of Justice, and it is under
stood that the President will imme-
diately call for the facts which have
been 1ascertained up to the present
time.

WEARING OUT COUGH
Physicians Say II Is Dangerous, as
We'll as Use'ess-Simpie Home
Remedy Suggested.

AT this season Of the year, with
coughs and colds everywhere in evil
dence,' said a well-known physician
recently. people should be warned
not to neglect these seemingly simple
ailments. They should be nipped in
the bud, before lung trouble, catarrh,
and other complications are given a
chance to get a grip on the system.
There is nothing new or startling in
this advice, but people have never
fully realized what good advice it is"
A very simple remedy which can be
made at home for very little money,
is suggested in the prescription given
below. Simple as it is. il is very eff
fective, curing colds and deep-seated
coughs very quickly.
GRADUATED Sugar Syrup ....1312 or.
Pinax 2lh OF.
Take threeQuarterS OF pound of
graduated sugar. mix with water.
heat and stir until thick syrup is
formed. Get the 212 ounces of pure
Pinex from Your druggist at cost OF
fifty cents Put the PineX into a
clean pint bottle, and fill it up with
Granulated Sugar Syrup. This gives
you full pint of better medicine than
you can buy already put up. Well
corked, il keeps for many months.
Take a teaspoonful dose every one,
two, or three hours.
Pinex is the most concentrated
form OF compound extract OF Norway
white pine tar. 1t is peculiarly rich
in guaiacol, the chemical element
which makes the ozone Of the pine
forests so effective in curing consump-
ton.
1t is barely possible that your drug
gist may not have PineX, but he can
easily get it for you, and will, if you
ask him. 1t should be emphasized
that no other pine tar or pine Oil prep
aration is equal to the pure PineX in
any way.

BLANKS AND INSTRUCTIONS ARE
GIVEN IN REGARD TO THIS
WORK. APPLICANTS FOR THE
CERTIFIED GLASS.

Fassett A. Cotton. state superintend-
ent Of Public instruction, is sending
out few thank sgiying packages" to
county superintendents. Each bun
die contains the following: School bull
letin for teachers: discussion Of the
work outlined in agriculture for the
country schools: TWO sets Of bi-mOnthly
examination questions; a directory of
the Indiana school officials ard blanks
to De used in inspecting high schools
which desire to be placed i'll the Ger
tilted class"
The new law requires that teachers
beginning the work shall have COM
pleted certain high school work and
provides for the granting of certifi-
Gates to approved high schools. Ger
tifcates from these schools figure N
the requirements for eligibility OF any
student who proposes to teach.
| In his letter addressed to the Coun-
| ty superintendent MI. Cotton says:
Enclosed you will find blanks to be
used in inspecting the high schools OF
your county which are asking to be
paced in the ''certitied' class. The
members of the state board of educa-
! ton can not visit all Of these schools,
but in deciding what schools are eligi-
Bile to certification the board will de-
pend largely upon the reports submit
ted by the county superinlendents.
AS you know, graduates from GER
tilted high schools will have met the
high school requirements of the new
Law for teachers. A certified high
school must meet all of the conditions
now required Of commissioned high
schools, with the exception of the
months each for four years or eight
months eac for four years or eight
months each for three years. The
State Board of Education prefers that
the certified schools be conducted for
four years of seven months terms
however, in instances where the cor
pOrations have enough money tC
conduct the schools for three years OF
eight months terms, sucn schools may
be certified. provided they meet all the
other requirements and cover the work

INDIANA OWNS SOME
ISLANDS IN WABASH
Has Laid Claim to Crops on
One of Them.
OCCUPIED BY A SQUATTER.

State Auditor John G. Billheimer
has discovered that the State of In
diana is the owner of several islands
in the Wabash River at various points
along it's course, one of them being
an island located on the western edge
Of Gibson County on the Indiana IL
llnois line. The others are located In
the northern part of the state in
Fountain, Parke and Warren coun-
ties.
The island in Gibson county con-
sists of eighty acres of overflow land
known as Patoka Island, and occupied
by Theodore w. Houchin, "squatter"
who secured his 'squatter's right"
from squatterS that preceded him.
The state auditor has laid claim to
Patoka Island and has demanded one
third of the crops. At present most
of the land is in corn. Theodore w.
Houchin, the ''squatter,' does not
claim the land and is willing to give
the state its share of the crops.

There is large number who will take

The general impression with those
who take the civil service examin-

the grades until apprised from the
