The Farmers Wife

Is very careful about her churn. She
scalds it thoroughly after using, and gives
it sun bath to sweeten it. She knows
that if her churn is sour it will taint the
butter that is made in it. The stomach is
a churn. In the stomach and digestive
and nutritive tracts are performed pro-
ceSSes which are almost exactly like the
churning of butter. Is it not apparent
then that if this stomach-churn is foul it
makes foul all which is put into it?
The evil of foul stomach is not alone
the bad taste in the mouth and the foul
breath caused by it, but the corruption of
the pure current of blood and the diSsem-
ination of disease throughout the body.
DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery

.rrhere are republicans today who
maintain that the great trusts, the
railroads and their attorneys, the IN
terests and their allies, are in favor
Of the reforms which President Roose-
welt has inaugurated.
Such claims are false, and made to
deceive. The railroad companies and
their attorneys have been opposed to
the reforms urged by the president.
In this opposition, some are actively
others quietly, and still others, Sc
cretly at work to defeat these policies.
Some openly favor such reforms, but
are secretly at work to obstruct all
such legislation. If you doubt the
truth Of this, go with me to Wall
Street, and inquire there, of the pop
ularity of the president, his policies
and reforms. No bitterer denunciatlon
can be poured upon any man than
comes from Wall Street on the pol
icies of Theodore Roosevelt. They
charge that he is unsafe, that he was
responsible for our panic-is a dis
turber and a reformer, and is disrupt
ing the republican party. They even
question his motives. They would
have delegates selected from STATE SoA
ventions where President Roosevelt
and his reforms are not endorsed.
Wall Street has it's representative In
Iowa, If you doubt this read the plat
form which we adopted at our re-
cent state convention and point out to
me the endorsement of the president,
his policies and his reforms. The only
endorsement contained in that plat
form is as follows:
1--WE believe him (TafD to be the
choice of the republicans of this state,
who have never failed to endorse the
official record of President Roosevelt"
What less could have been said, and
at the same time mention his name?
Had the platform been written by his
friends much more would have been
said.

No Real Friends of Roosevelt.
(From Goods address at vinton>

that President Roosevelt favors the
selection of railroad attorneys to sit
in the councils of the nation. Let me
call your attention to where he places
the responsibility for the wrong
which has been done by these great
concerns. In his message to congress
he says:
$50 that in other words, the only
way of Furnishing the wrong is by fin
ing the corporation, unless we are
content to proceed personally against
the minor agents. The corporation
LAWYERS to whom I refer, and their
employers, are the men mainly re-
sponsible for this state Of things, and
their responsibility is shared by all
who ingeniously oppose the passing of
Just and effective laws, or who fail to
execute them when they have been
put on the statute books"
In the light of these facts, do you
think these large corporations and
their attorneys who are responsible for
this state of things" should be per-
mitted to make laws to govern them!
Is it wise to send to congress the at
torneys of railroad companies, who
oppose the passage Of just and effec-
tive laws?" This is question which
YOU must determine by your votes on
June 2.

in his ability to surround himself with

the fundamental elements of success

ALARM AMONG BREWERS.

The brewers of the country are
frightened because of the wave of tenn
perance sentiment sweeping the coun-
try, and Iowa is one of the states that
is profiting. The mulct law is to be
enforced in Sioux City, and strictly.
The heralding of the millennium would
create little less surprise In Sioux
City the order has gone out to the
chief of police to enforce every pro-
vision of the mulct law, and the au-
thorities are disposed to add few
frills of their own.
Sioux City has ninety-nine saloons.
Sections of the mulct law pertaining
to back doors. screens and curtains
free lunches, hours Of closing. and hol-
iday restrictions, have been ignored.
The Martin law has been a joke In
Sioux City, as it was in Davenport
and Dubuque until recently. And the
strange part of the reform movement
is that the request for enforcement
comes from saloonists. fifty Of whom
signed a petition to the mayor plead
ing for the privilege of legally behav-
ing themselves.
If the truth were known 1t is prob
able that It would show that the fifty
saloons making this unusual request
were places owned by the big brew
ers. The companies which do business
in many states have had bitter ex-
perience In those states which have
gone dry and they are much inclined
to bend before the storm. This class
of saloon interests would have the law
enforced against saloons which are
offending the public conscience by the
"dive" character Of their places. The
law is going to be enforced in Sioux
City because the former violators are
willing that it should be, not because
the public has been stirred up to a
demand that it must be.
