Thomas L. billiard, living on
Railroad St., Marion, KY, Says:
"Doan's Kidney Pills came to my
relief after | had suffered and spent
a great deal Of money without receiv
ing any benefit whatever. l had en-
joyed exceedingly good health up
to two years ago when | was taken
with an attack of typhoid fever and
upon recovering found that my kid
neys we're IN badly disordered con-
dition. The pains 10 my back we're
so sgouizing that frequently had to
leave my work in the field and lie
down for several hours. There was
constant desire to pass the secretion
aud this trouble caused me to arise
several times during the night.
They were highly colored and the
passages were attended with pain.
| became dizzy when spots would
float before my eyes, aud would stag
ger like a drunken man. A relative
hearing about my condition advised
me to try Doans Kidney Pills aud |
procured box at Haynes & Taylor S
drug store. They cured me in less
than two months and for over two
years have had no return of my old
complaint. | am bound to look upon
my cure as a permanent one"

the street in search OF employment
and wherever there is one job there
is ten men. The panic has put n
stop TO the buying Of machinery, We

to some extent, but he will not suf-
fer unless he is in debt. The stores
aud factories are full Of goods and
the owner can sit still and wait until
his stock is cut down, but the labor
err must work or starye. Competition
becomes bitter and men become des-
perste. The man who sees his chill

strong advocate Of a law which holds
the rights Of property more sacred
than those Of life and happiness,
Hunger makes anarchist OF many
men. When we Judge men we must
place ourselves in their positions.
The endeaver to make this a nation
Of and for manufacturers instead of a

hothouses for the development Of
poverty and crime.

proportion Of them do not seem Il
realize this fact. II they would con
fide perfectly in each other and
would thoroughly unite, thus ce-
mepting their interests, they could
d DICTATE all policies affecting them and
could obtain for all products their
own prices instead of being compell-
ed to accept what he trusts see fit
to offer
1t is the selfishness Of the individ-
ual farmer which keep them from
this union which would be blessing
to everybody. Too many Of them
are possessed Of desire to grab all
they can and fear that united action
may in some way cut down their own
power to get something for nothing,
as in the case Of tobacco farmers
who refuse to join the American So
ciety Of Equity, but who are anxious
to take advantage Of the conditions
created by the society.

UNITY AND ACTION.

Unity and action will bring to the
farmer prosperity and power Ever
since people begun to organize them
selves into civilized societies a few
men by united action have succeeded
in taxing the majority for the benefit
Of the few. 1t is easy to get a few
men to unite, especially when they
are to receive special privileges or
large profits, aud it is hard to get
the people who pay little too much
here or lose a little too much there to
unite in order to keep from being
robbed of these Titles. 1t is, how.
ever, the union Of these small amounts
that has caused the great fortunes of
all times and the ability Of the few
to tax the many. When we lose
few cents bushel on. wheat, or q
cent or two pound on cattle or hogs,
or three or five cents a pound on to-
bacco, or one centa quart on milk,
we do not realize that the cent or two
is just the difference between a profit
and a loss for our labor. The fellow
who buys our product for speculation
has figured out the actual cost of
production and the expense Of ex-
change and knows that the profit lies
between the actual cost and the
amount the consumer is willing to
pay, and he knows that united &C.
ton on the part of the spectators
as against individual inaction on the
part of the producers will compel the
farmers to sell their stuff at any
price fixed by the spectators, The
Bath County World, of Sharpsburg,

shis time, and believes thats splen.
did opportunity lies before them. A
proposition has been made to organ
iEe q company for such = factory
here to manufacture the Equity TO-
baeco. Chairman X. Il. Jillson, Of
the special Committee Of the Bnsi-
ness Mems Club. who sought Presi-
deut LeBus views on the matter, re-
ceived a letter from him in which he
says, among other things;
This seems 10 De the brightest
.ume for many years to start an inde-
pendant factory, for more reasons
than one. First, because believe
this Equity movement will be able to
take care Of such factories. Then
the Equity movement holding the
trust down some little, or at least
making them pay as much for the
raw material as independent factories
and also a. they are slightly hsndi-
capped for fear the Government might
take some action against them, 1t
certainly looks like a good business
proposition to start an independent
factory.
We predict that ere long factories
will be operated by our people, and
that the trade label Of the A. $. Of +.
will be found on the plug aud smok-
ing tobaecos made from all types Of
Kentucky tobAccos used by Kentuck-
ians. Why not' We nave the raw
product have the facilities to do the
manufacturing, and furnish a great
macy Of the consumers, then how the
business would boom from the start
If organized labor would stand by the
union label and the trade tag Of the
farmer, aad We feel that they would
DO it. The farmers and organized la
Dor should understand each other
thoroughly, aud IN order to carry on
enterprises like the one advocated
above by Mr.. LeBus the consumer
must be looked after as an important
factor in the business. II the man
who follows the pillow is supported in
these undertaking by the man who
carries the dinner pail, the tobacco
trust will not only have to pay fair
price for the raw product, but newer
and better brands Of tobacco will be
found upon the shelves Of the mer-
chant.
