READY FOR ACTIVE CAMPAIGN
Chairman Hitchcock Says Delay Due
to Desire to Conserve Funds.
PLANS MADE SEVERAL WEEKS AGO
speakers Of National Reputation VIII
Take stump October Ex-senator
Crane Denies Report of Change
In Management.

CHICAGO, Sept. Z.-That the funds nee
essary to dsfray the expenses Of a long,
vigorous speaking campaign have not been
forthcoming was frankly admitted today
by Chairman Frank II. Hitchcock Of the
republican committee. The statement was
in explanation Of the delays in beginning
the campaign work in most Of the states.
Il have no apologies to make" he said.
we knew long ago that we could not
waste our funds and for that reason we
decided that the proper thing to do was
to get the states into shape for an effect
i've campaign during the last month pre-
ceding election. To that end l have de-
voted most of my time to the adjustment
Of f~actional difficulties in a number Of
states where the republicans were not
pulling together. A quarrel which needed
attention has been on in West Virginia,
and 1 am in hopes that will be settled to-
night. 1 believe the result of that confer
ence will be that both of the republican
factions which had candidates for gov
ernor will unite on a man who will be
acceptable to the whole party"
Chairman Hitchcock expressed the opin-
ion that il an active campaign can be
carried on for thirty days, that is for the
month Of october, the republican national
ticket will be successful in all Of the nor
mally republican states and in most OF
the states that have been put in the
doubtful column by conservative polite
ians.
That was the theory when our plans
we're outlined at conferences which 1 held
with the party leaders at Colorado Springs,
Chicago. Boston and other places said
Mr.. Hitchcock.
W. believed then that October l would
be time enough to put our speakers OF ma
tional prominence and our paid speakers
in the field. 1t costs a great deal of money
to keep a large speaking force going and
even II I had thought it necessary. 1
would not have been able to start the paid
men before October /. But l nave not
thought II necessary and all OF the lead
ers of the party with whom 1 have con-
/ ferred agreed with me that a month Of
active campaigning we have planned will
be sufficient to get the matter before the
voters
Henry Cochems Of Milwaukee, who made
the speech in the Chicago convention nomi-
mating Senator La Toilette for the presi-
dency, was at republican headquarters to-
day:
Il expect Wisconsin to hold UP an old
time republican majority. While the situa-
ton at this time is somewhat chaotic
everything will be all right by election
day"
John P. Healing Of Indiana, who managed
the campaign of Vice President Fairbanks,
said:
I'm Indiana, as a result Of local issues,
the situation at this time is a little uncer-
tain. These issues will be fought out and
1 have no doubt that Indiana will 20 for

TOrturiRg Animals
To Assist Science
Is A Cruel Method to Follow, But 1t
Has Saved Many Human Lives.

Prof Pawlow. OF Russia, was engaged
for many years in experimental work, try
Ing to learn the workings Of digestion, es-
pecially the digestive glands.
He, with able assistants. operated upon
dogs, cats. guinea pigs and other animals.
His methods were seemingly painful, but
he gave TO science a work which won the
Nobel prize and made for him an undying
fame.
Science penetrated to secrets Of nature.
Prof. Pawlow saw animals digest food
He analiyzed juices from every part OF the
digestive canal and stomach under all con-
ditions OF digestion. He spent years Of
ceaseless study amid the bowling and dying
beasts. but he won. and science today looks
upon him as a great man.
To do a great right do a little wrong
Shakespeare said, and Prof. Pawlow obeyed
this trite saying.
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are prepared
by the most modern scientific process. They
are produced by modern appliances, and
meet the demand OF 10th century chemistry.
They give man the means to correct his
infirmities of stomach and digestive organs.
They enrich the blood, give nature the
juices and fluids she lacks. stop the for
nation Of noxious gases and the fermen-
tation Of food. They neutralize powerful
acids and slkslies. which irritate and de-
YOUR the stomach. They prevent and re-
lieve bowel and intestinal trouble and
soothe the nerves.
They should be used after every meal
whether one has dyspepsia and stomach
trouble or the stomach be naturally healthy.
BY their use one may eat at all hours
and whatever one desires and they help
the system digest or throw off such food.
They are thoroughly meritorious as their

Dry weather Hurts Apples.

NEBRASKA CITY, Sept. 22.-spedal)-
The continued dry weather is playing
havoc with the apple orchards throughout
this section. The lack Of moisture in the
ground causes the apples to fall, and nearly
one-half Of the heavily ladened fruit trees
nave dropped their fruit within the last
ten days. These apples cannot be shipped
and are hauled to the vinegar works where
they are made into cider or vinegar. The
factory has enlarged its storeroom and has
a large working force working day and
night to care for the apples which they are
receiving daily. As high as 200 teams have
stood in line in a day waiting their turn 10
unload at the chutes. The shippers, who
purchased the orchards as they stood, are
much discouraged because Of the way the
trees are dropping their crop, and are pray
ing for rain to save them from heavy
losses.
