from 100 First St., n. E., Washington,

II cannot too highly recommend your
preparation for the relief of catarrhal
troubles In their various forms. Some
members of my own family have used
it with most gratifying results. When
other remedies failed, Peruna proved
most efHcacfOus and cheerfully certi-
fy TO it's curative excellence"
Mr. Fred L. Hebard, for nine years a
leading photographer of Kansas City,

the following testimony: sltis proven
fact that Peruna will cure cafarrh and

Pe-ru-na in Tablet Form.
For two years DR.. Hartman and his
assistants have necessarily 1abored to
create Peruna in tablet form, and their
strenuous labors have just been crowned
with success. People who object to
liquid medicines can now secure Peru

ment was brought out by the editor

wherein such an idea was credited
to Judge Scott.
According to Judge Scott he did not

for the people to get together so as
to discuss the subject in order to as
certain what they do want.
Ideas As Numerous As People.
"There are as many different ideas
upon the subject of good roads as
there are people" declared the judge,
"At present few people agree upon
the subject and when a man makes
any statement upon the subject it is
construed different by different peo-
pie.
This situation is well illustrated by
the story which | told regarding the

New York, oct. 26.-The World
this morning prints the story that
sherman, the republican nominee for
yice-president, was connected with a
scheme to secure valuable timber
lands in New Mexico for almost moth
ing, through an act OF congress in
1902 1t says that Sherman. E. L.
Philip, the legislative agent for Mil
waukee brewery interests, and Henry
Cassou, scrseanJ-at-drms in the house
of representa- tives. formed the New
Mexico Lumber IL Development COM
pany and entered into arrangements
with the New Mexico land board to
acquire the territorial timber lands
at cost of one-tenth their value. In
order to carry out the scheme, Sher-
man drew a bill providing that the
territory could sell its land in blocks
Of 5000 acres, with no limitation as
t5 the minimum price. The bill pass
ed iho house but was killed in the
senate.
The story says that Edmund Burke,
q Los Angeles attorney, represented
the company gave $500 to Solicitor
General Bartlett of the territory, a
$500 draft to \. A. Kerr, superinten-
dent Of lands. and $1,000 to Governor
Otero, these men constituted the land
board and that the land board in re-
turn gave the company an option on
sH "a inc
10000 acres at $3 per acre. that the
land board. printed for the company
several thousand applications ad-
dressed 10 the board, each asking for
It grant OF 100 acres the limit allow
ed one individual. On the back of the
application was printed the power of
attorney to the company by which the
applicant appointed the attorney its
agent.
These applications were to be
signed by divers men working in the
bIcweries of Milwaukee and turned
over to the company afterwards. The
officers finally decided the scheme of
using dummy entrymen was too dan
gcgous and upon the advice of United
states senator Spooner, decided to
seek legislative authority at the eX-
peuse of the government.
Then sherman drew up the bill,
which was prevented from passing
the senate by Senator Patterson oc
Colorado. as is shown by the records
The story was dictated to a World

mans partner at the tir1e and is pur-
ported to have been dictated in the

Washington, oct. 26.-Gompers to-
day issued a formal reply to Roose-
velt's letter to Senator Knox regarding
the attitude Of labor in the campaign.
He says: Roosevelt made Taft
candidate and seeing the labor vote
aroused and that the toilers would
not be cajoled, he became desperate
and in anger by the worst exhibition
Of demagogism. tried to instill into en-
ployes the fear that prosperity would
be- endangered If a square deal is ac-
corded workers. He throws the in
fluence of his office into the scales
against the interests Of other citi-
zens.
The president says Knox has a
right to discuss the principles of in
junction because. as attorney genera
n, prosecuted suits for damages To
injured workmen. Knox's services as
special counsel for the Pennsylvania
railroad and steel corporation do in
deed qualify him to discuss injunc-
ucus, but only from the corporation
viewpoint.
"The injunctions issued by Judg
Taft and others were based on the
theory that along with the ownership
OF mines, etc. is the vested right of
sufficient labor TO make the corpo-
ration profitable. This constituting
their forms OF property right it is the
purpose Of our opponents to villify
the labor movement through me, and

the pretext that I have attacked the
