IerdiCt for DR.. Pierce
AGAINST THE
Ladies' HOr'e Journal.

Sending truth after lie. It Is an old
maxim that "a lie will travel seven
leagues while truth is getting its boots
on and no doubt hundreds OF thousands
of good people read the unwarranted and
malicious attack upon DR.. 4. V. Pierce
and his "FaVOrite Prescription published
in the May 1904 number Of the Ladies'
Home journal, with its great black dis
play headings, who never saw the hum

spicuous heading, published two months

erous and libelouS article that DIR. Pierccs

wOman's weaknesses and ailments, con-
tanned alcohol and other harmful ingredi-
ents DR.. Pierce promptly brought suit
against the publishers of the Ladies'
Home Journal, for S2OO,OOO,OO damages.
DR.. Pierce alleged that Mr.. Box, the
editor, maliciously published the article
containing such false and defamatpry
matter wiE the intent of injuring his
ineS><furthermore. that no alcohol or
other INJURIOUS. or habitforming, drugs

These facts were also proven In the trial OF
the action in the Supreme Court. But the
business Of DR.. Pierce was greatly injured by
the publication of tho lihalous article with

thousands who read the wickedly defamatory
article never saw the humble groveling re-

The educational bill passed the sem
ate Tuesday after a long debate in
which Senator Dowdell attempted to
inject his state uniformity Of text
books into the bill. in which he fiayed
the American Book company. Before
the firal vote, Senators Goodner. Dud-
ley, Cooper and Dillon got into tho
game. and the Dowdell amendment
was voted down, the bill passing prac-
tcally as left by the house.
The bill to apportiOn the balance
Of the endowment lands Of the state

who wanted to divide it among the in
Btitutions already endowed, as he
wanted it out of the way Of any in
sttution which might seek It in the
future. Senators Dowdell, Ryrne and
Jenkins supported the bill, which
passed after defeating Senator Dillon's
amendment with only three votes in
rs favor.
The senate passed the house wolf

Lincoln supported it and Senators
Dudley, Lax$On, DOwdell jenkins and
Dillon Opposed it, charging that it was
one Of the most vicious measures
which had been proposed, entirely in
the way Of class legislation, and on
motion of Senator Hepperlo it was in
definitely postponed.
The afternoon session Of the house
tuesday was devoted to grinding out
appropriation bills, getting through
with most Of the special appropria-
tons asked for.

received thirty-five favorable votes.

had planned a smooth game to prac-

Under the rules an amended bill can
be held over for one day on demand
of fifteen members and Glass had an
amendment to present, under which
the rule was to be invoked, holding il
over until Thursday and sending il
back to the senate. where it would
have been little trouble to hold it until
after adjournment.
Gable was first recognized, and after
stating that he thought it time for the
state to take in the laundry sign moved

with his amendment, which was ruled
out Of order, and he appealed from
