called to published charges that his
brother, Henry w. Taft, Elihu Root,
now secretary of state and himself,
as governor general of the Philippines,
had been in cooperation with Speyer
& Co, in the building of railroads in
the Philippines. He denied them.
These charges were made by Will
lard Green and are along the same
line as charges made some time ago
by w. ]. Bryan.
Judge Taft replied to the Bryan
charges in a speech in Norwood, Ohio.
on September 10, in which he said
that Mr.. Bryan had been misinformed.
Mr.. Bryan never has returned to the
charge.
In regard to the Green charges,
Judge Taft said that Green had been
prospective bidder for the construc-
ton of railroads in the Philippines
under the government guarantee to
pay per cent on the bonds issued for
such construction. This guarantee
was authorized by congress.
There is a railroad called the Ma
Mia and Dagupan Road that runs out
or Manila for 120 miles through the
valley. This road was owned by an
English syndicate when the American
occupation took place and was seized
by the Americans as a military ne
cessity.
After the pacification of Luzon and
after the act of congress guaranteeing
interest on railroad construction
bonds in the Philippines bids were
asked for the construction of new
roads, and Green was n prospective
bidder, under the supposition that the
bonds would be government bonds and
not object to tax. The only terminal
facilities in Manila were owned by the
Manila and Dagupan road, and that
road was at an advantage in the bid
ding in connection with Speyer & Co.,
of New. York.

Acid And Alkali
In The Stomach
oisests The Food Naturally II In
Right Proportion; " Not:
Then Dyspepsia.

Acid and alkali make up the liquid
known as gastric juice, which digests
your food.
If through abuse or the stomach. or
weakness of blood or through scores
OF other causes this gastric juice is not
made up correctly of acid and alkali,
your stomach cannot digest food.
Such stomach then acts as pit
where the food lies, ferments. decays,
is thrown of at last, either into the in
testines OF is yomited from the system.
II thrown into the intestines a large
proportion of it is taken up and passed
into the blood. for the intestines are
covered on the inside surfaces with
millions OF little mouths which are
places there TO suck up nourishment
for the blood.
You may readily see that if instead
of good rich nourishment, there is vile
poisonous fermented bile and acid.
these same little mouths suck some of
it by necessity and pass il into the
blood. The blood in turn throws it off
In an imperfect state.
The blood is weakened. the tissues
lose strength, the skin becomes dis
eased and man in general suffers in a
score of places.
Then again the blood furnishes gas
trio Juice to the stomach. for when the
gastric juice is not needed for digestive
purposes IL goes back 10 the blood.
When food comes into the stomach the
nerves along the Alimentary Canal and
in the mouth signal the brain for help
and the blood Immediately furnishes
sufficient gastric juice to do the work
well and quickly.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets go into
the stomach, balance the gastric juice,
digest the food. are taken up by the
blood, purifies il, and when the food
comes again TO the stomach a natural
gastric Juice of right proportion greets
it and does its work perfectly. After
time these little tablets restore Ma
ture, build up the gastric juice and
there is no longer dyspepsia.

Our History One Of Plumber.

Our History One OF Plumber.
We have been exploiting a continent

we have swept down upon it's treas

impoverishfng its soil. strewing its
meadows to the seas and burning its
treasured mountains as our barbarian
forefathers burned the hills of Rome
AS robbers we have succeeded tremen-
dously. That has been hitherto our
success. We have had but one Elmer.

together with the masters of business
who have heaped up the largest for
tunes the world has ever known. Were
all America to be blotted out. past and
present, the loss to the world Of cul-
ture. thought and beauty would not
equal the loss of one small year of
Athens. The time is surely coming
when we can live no more by plumber,
but must set ourselves to build and to
plant and to renew our life from with

surely come. We cannot much longer

tical in it's assertion that a man must
have the same liberty that the Ameri-
can stands for in other matters. 1t is
the same principle which guided the
Quakers-the following of an inward
life.
Now whether or not that religion is
right or wrong the fact remains that
the measure OF a mans religion is not
the creed to which a man subscribes,
but his actions. II the religion is
wrong and it has borne good fruit
the fruit must not be condemned. And
il it is wrong, is it not the greater
credit to the man who believes in it
if he achieves the ideal in his daily life
and has spotless character?
Judge Taft has shown by his actions
that he is a Christian who loves his
neighbor as himself. His first concern
during his whole life has not been for
himself 1t was self denial when he
went on the bench-when he might
law. 1t was self denial which took
him from the bench to go to that ter
rible ordeal of the Philippines. 1t was
self sacrifice for him to turn down the
Chief Justiceship and to run for the
Presidency.
And his actions at all times have
been Christian. He was the greatest
aid to Bishop Brent of the Philippines
in establishing missions and an Or
ganization corresponding to the Y. M.
C. A. to keep the young Americans
sent out to the Philippines from dissi-
patton in that lonely region And so
it was in the Panama zone that Taft's
first care was the starting of the Y.
M. C. A. for the benefit of the en-
ployes.
Strange is it not that because this
man gave a square deal to the Roman
church in regard to the Friars lands
that he be accused for leaning toward
that church and at the same time be
accused of things which are exactly
the opposite from the tenets Of the
Catholic faith.
The spirit of missions is the most
vital of the Christian faith. Not only
was Taft instrumental in bringing
about the ideal conditions in the Phil
ippines but a missionary journal OF
last week praises him and prints let
ter of some time ago as TO his belief
in the efficacy of Christian missions
and in which he advocated and en-
dorsed Christian missions, adding that
he would do all in his power to help
them.
Where is the spirit of religious toll
erance for which the first Americans
suffered and died? If it shall come
to pass that mans church shall in
terfere with his public service it will
mean that we are going back.
What would have been the fate of
the Immortal Lincoln who had no
church? Yet what man of his era was
a better Christian?

A SYSTEM BUILT ON LIES.
The operations of the Chicago board

The government maintains an expen-

connection between these reports and
the prices on change.
The entire system Of trading on the
board is fst:nded upon lies.
Heso Is one more proof:

made millions by manipulating the
market. while operating a recent wheat
deal peddled all sorts Of lies about the
crop. He shouted calamity. lie gave
wide publicity to false stories about the
rust and blight in the wheat belt. Sc,
cretly he bought wheat. But his trad
ers and pit leaders persistently lied
about the crop damage. Then one day
Patten threw scare that caused
wheat to jump UP g. cents bushel.

ports about the crops from his local
agents. They knsC conditions and told
Lund the truth. They denied the sto-
ries about the damage. On the strength
of these reports-the truth-Lund sold
largely.
On the day that Patten, with bis lies

blew out his brains FIVE minutes before
the market closed. He was disgraced

The farmers knew the truth about the

The men who followed Patten-the
farmers excepted-made big money.
Those who followed the truth were

cine can control the situation. The
only thing to fear is concealment- The
concealment of cases of smallpox sim
ply means that the disease will spread
unchecked.
II any one has been exposed to
smallpox the first thing to do is to go
to a physician and report the case and
to be vaccinated. This will ward of
the disease or make it a light case.
Those who have not been yaccinated
or some time to be on the safe side
must do SO again.
Concealment is the most dangerous
part of smallpox. Smallpox Is not so
dread disease as might be thought it
is. not nearly SO fatal as many other
diseases and prompt vaccination has
minimized Disagreement.
There is no cause for alarm If proper
measures are taken.

There is merit in the old advice to
speak only good of the dead. We are
.astonished that Taft's tongue should
hare outrun his political discretion,
and, if we may judge by the zone and
temper. of letters we have received,
should have forfeited the support OF
the Grand Army and the Sons of Vet,
Grams. General Grant is one of the
nations heroes. He was the military
savior of the country, as, Lincoln was
it's political savior Without Lincoln
there might have been no union TO
day, and therefore no presidency OF
the United States for Taft or anyone
else. Without Grant, it is certain
there would have been no union. His
genius turned the tide of battle, and
after a series of disheartening defeats
and reyerses the northern cause by
the genius of III Galena tanner was
redeemed and glorified in the most
brilliant series of military triumphs
the world has ever witnessed.
