Robert A Gue-raat 70 Health Officer
Woodward yesterday
The report submitted TO Dr.. Woodward
is as follows:
a long platform has been erected for
unloading milk, the length OF which IS
approximately ten or twelve cars The
cars are run in by this platform and the
milk unloaded IN the hot sun. there be
ing no protectioo whatever save a shed
that has been recently erected at ore end
OF the platform and extending for only
distance Of about TWO car lengths, which
is wholly Inadequate for the purpose IN

that mail and baggage cars are shifted

smaller quantities which receive this
same treatment, except Il does not even
have the protection Of a canvas thrown
over IL II nay be said by the railroad
company that the milk might remain on
the cars until ready TO roll it on wagons.
This Is not practicable, for the reason
that the first man who applies for his
milk may find that it was the first 20
be loaded on the car, and necessarily all
the other milk would have TO be moved
that nearer the door before the other can
be gotten at Again a good many dealers
buy milk from both Virginia and Mary
land, and necessarily Il Is on different
cars. When this IS the case. the driver
usually has a helper who IS unloading
one car while he, the driver. is IN
loading another, and Of course. one lot
Of milk is left exposed while the other

expenditure Of q few hundred dollars.

mend that steps be taken immediately

not been so well demonstrated
that there were no prizes in poll

the proposition was even then a
big, hard, round palpable fact.
What / should have told these
young men was that the doctrine
of stepping stones was delusion.
That the only endurable way to
get an Office is to grow no and
fall over into it sideways. That a
nomination is a matter OF availa-
bility; the people will let a man
know if they want him. That
sometimes a bad man on one oc
casion is more available than a
good man on another. That all
OF these matters go to the ques-
ton of availability and availability

Senator Crane Trust Ally.

The appearance OF Senator w.
Murray Crane. of Massachusetts
upon the republican scene as chief
advisor" of chairman Hitchcock
in the management OF Mr.. Taf,'s
campaign. is regarded as further
unmistakable evidence of the
alliance of the republican party
with the trust interests for :hc
election of Taft. Senator Crane
may rot be very we'll known by
the farmers and laboring men of
the west. but he has a very exten.
sive and intimate acquaintance in
Wall street and with the trust
protected interests OF the east.
He belongs TO that little coteric
OF men who rule the United
States senate. He is the princi
pal advisor OF Senator Nelson w
Aldrich, of Rhode Island, who
stands at the head OF the Stand
ard Oil list of senators. Senator
Crane is second in command.
The failure OF Chairman Hitch
cocks campaign for Taft made it
necessary for the republicans to
form a closer relationship with
the trusts in order to procure
funds with which to carry on
their propaganda. No man is
better suited to do the cement
ing than is Senator Crane. He
is republican of high standing
and is trust magnate. His in
tcrests lie with those who are
monopolists and with the trusts.

Banks Out of the Association.

How about banks not In the associa-
tion? Many perfectly sound banks are
not directly in the clearing house.
They clear through another bank
which does belong.
Precisely the same rule applies to
them. for, when need arises. the asso-
citation serves notice on the member
bank which clears for the non-asso-
citation bank as to what will have to
be done; and 1t is done promptly. too.
in every instance.
Bank Book Should BE Worth Face.
The essence OF the guarantee plan is
that a bank book should be worth its
face always. An entry in 4 pass book
should not constitute the assumption
of risk by the depositor and the Civ
ing of wide latitude to the banker.
Such entry should be recognized as
just as actual an asset as bank note.
The newspaper., 1908-10-09

Also. proper arrangements must be
made for the continued espionage Of
banks by other banks.
Lastly. and quite as important.
banking laws must be enforced: over
certifcation must be stopped: loaning
of funds in national banks on obvious
ly speculative schemes must cease;
and other reforms must be wrought to
invest the banking system OF the
country with that complete confidence
which, If induced would put a stop
to all nervousness by depositors.

EAT WHAT YOU WANT.
Science Has Now Found the True Way
to Cure Indigestion.

A few years ago, when a sufferer
from indigestion went to stomach
specialist, the result was rigid diet
list that almost meant starvation.
But the first thing to do in the case
of Indigestion or stomach weakness is
to strengthen the muscular walls of the
stomach and intestines, so that they
will care for the food that is eaten. In
no other way can this be done as well
as by taking a Mi-o-na tablet before
each meal. This restores strength to
the stomach muscles and stimulates
the pouring out of gastric juices. 50
that the food is digeSted readily and its
nourishment retained in the system to
build up energy and vitality.
Do not think the sick headache,
heartburn, bad taste in the mouth.
coated tongue spots before the eyes.
sleeplessness and the many other
symptoms that are the direct result of
indigestion, will go away of themselves.
The stomach must be built up and
strengthened by Mi-o-na before you
can be well and strong, free from
suffering and distress.
In many of the best homes in
Augusta and adjoining towns. the
handy little Mi-o-na tablets. so
pleasant to take. yet so effective. have
given quick and lasting relief from IN
digestion and that disagreeable full
feeling after eating.
The guarantee that Bowditch. Web
ster & Co. give with every 50-cent box
of Mi-o-na, to refund the money UNI
less the remedy cures, shows their
confidence in the treatment. They
take the whole risk. and Mi-o-na will
not cost you penny unless it cures.
