SOME OF THE. THINGS
 THE FARMERS WANT
Revision of the Ttariff. Postal Savings Banks and Better Roads.

Washington, Nov. 11.-Immediate revision of tariff schedules affecting articles alleged to be sold by Ameri- can manufacturers in foreign mark cts at lower price than in this coun- try was urged in behalf of the inter ests- of American farmers by former Governor N. J. Bachelder of New Hampshire. national master, in his an- nual address today before the nation al grange, Patrons of Husbandry.
 Bachelder also made a strong plea for postal savings banks, the parcels post and highway appropriations at the next session of congress. Com menting upon the purpose of Presi- dent RoOsevelt's country life commits sion, Bachelder stated that the com mission had already ascertained from letters sent by farmers in every part of the United States that the reform which would mean more to farmers in dollars and cents was an adequate ap- propriation for improvement of high ways.

EAT ANY FOOD
 WITHOUT FEAR A Dieted Stomach Gets the Blues and Grumb|eS
Diapepsin Will Cure Your
 Stomach Trouble Forever and Before You Realize It.

Miserable indeed is the man or woman whose digestive system is un- strung-who goes to the table and can not eat or what little is eaten seems to fill them and lays like a lump of lead in the stomach, refusing to digest.
 If you, dear reader, suffer this way and will put on your wraps now and get from your pharmacist a 50-cent case of Pape's Diapepsin and eat one 22-grain Triangule after your next meal you would appreciate, five min utes later, how long you suffered un- necessarily.
 There will be no more indigestion no misery in the stomach-no sour risings or Belching of Gas, no Heart burn, F1atulency or Eructations of undigested food and acid or feeling of Nausea, F'ullness, Headache or other symptoms of a weakened Stomach.
 Stomach trOublL and Indigestion vanish like snow before the blazing sun.
 When Diapepsin works your Stom- ach rests-gets itself in order. Dia- pepsin purifies and sweetens a sour SIOndCn ana ITeSHenS lHe lHleSllHeS without the use of Laxatives, and what is more, it increases the gas tric juices. This is what your stom- ach is begging for-more and better digestive juices. This is what makes you hungry and want to eat, and you can rest assured what you then eat will be taken care of properly and not left in the stomach to ferment and turn to gas and acid, and poison the breath with nauseous odors.
 Get a 50-cent case from your drug gist now-you ought to have Dia- pepsin about the house always. Should one of your family eat some thing which does not agree with him or her, or for a Sour Stomach or Excessive as, one triangule will all ways give immediate relief.

 GATHERS IN DOCKS
Establishes the Greatest Naval Repair
 Shop on Pacific Coast.

San Francisco, Nov. 11.-Charles M. Schwab. the head of the Bethlehem Steel company, which controls the Union Ironworks of this city, an- nounced today that the steel company had purchased a controlling interest in the San Francisco Dry Dock com pany, which owns two big docks at Hunters Point, within San Francisco bay, as well as a number of floating docks and small vessels. Schwab said the docks would be combined with the Union Ironworks into vast repair establishment, capable of handling marine work of any magnitude, dock ing any ship afloat on the Pacific ocean. The amount involved was not made public further than the state ment by Schwab that it would reach several million dollars.
 Does this mean that the Union Ironworks will now bid for contracts for the construction of naval vessels Schwab was asked.
 We can make no statement as to that" he replied. Tt is a combination that deals more with repair work than construction"
 J. A. McGregor, president of the Union Ironworks company, will be the head of the new company.

A NIGHT OF FIRE
 AT FAIR GROUNDS
A REALISTIC RUN BY THE DE-
 APARTMENT.
The Exhibition Closed with Magnifi.
 cent Display of Fireworks.

The spectacular performance of the firemen on the fair grounds last night, which was given as an exhibition of skill and speed and consisted of race to the fire and the consequent battle with the flames, was a spectacle well worth seeing. A frame structure was erected on the enclosure in front of the grand stand and was set on fire and the alarm turned in to the central station on the grounds, which was ar ranged as a really and truly fire sta tion. The men were supposed to be asleep, and at the alarm of fire get out of bed, dress, descend from the second floor, hitch up the horses and run to the scene of the fire. The time made in eXtinguishing the flames was remarkable, and this drill proved be- yond a doubt that Arizona firemen are capable of handling conflagrations. This exhibition was one of the best given during the tournament
 The fireworks display was pro- nounced by all who saw it to be the finest ever There was a magnifi- cent array of set pieces and novelty fireworks. The White City" in Chi cago and San Souci," popular re- sorts which spend thousands on fire works, and even old "COney Island" have seldom shown a better display.
 The set pieces were beautiful and special mention may be made of the collision of the two trains, a moving picture wrought by fire. The sky was made as bright as day by the explod- ing bombs and their trailing showers of sparks. A more beautiful sight has never before been witnessed in this city.

Why Colds Are Dangerous.

Because you have contracted or.
dinary colds and recovered from
them without treatm ent OF any kind,
do not for moment imagine that
colds are not dangerous. Everyone
knows that pneumonia and chron-
ic catarrh have their origin in a
common cold. Consumption is not
caused by cold but the cold pre-
pares the system for the reception
and development of the germs that
would not otherwise have found
lodgment. It Is the same with all
infectious diseases. Dphtheria,
scarlet fever, measles and whoop-
ing cough are much more likely TO
be contracted when the child has
n cold. You will see from this that
more real danger turks in cold
than in any other of the common
ailments. The easiest and quickest
way to cure cold is to take
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. The
many remarkable cures effected by
this preparation have made 1t a
staple article of trade over a large
part OF the world. For sale by

Dear Sir:

In regard TO my opinion of the
agency question as submitted To the
voters II Oklahoma at the approach
ing election from the standpoint OF
one who has never been prohi.
bitionist as the term is used from
radical standpoint, ! desire 10 say:
First. | do not believe that prohi-
bition was voted In this state by
the prohibitionists alone, but that II
was csrried by the vote of the logic
al business man. who was disguised
with the manner in which the sa-
looms were conducted and with the
influence exerted In party rnlitics
by the saloon element. The elimina
tion OF these two evils has undoubt
edly resulted in great good, morally
and politically.
Second. believe, with the ma
jority Of our physicians and thou
sands OF our citizens. that liquor is
needed and necessary, not only for
medical purposes, but for use in
compromising drugs in our colleges
and for industrial and scientific pur'
poses. and that proper arrangements
must be made for its distribution
properly restricted by practical laws
Third, The agencies supply all
these demands and believe the re
strlctions placed upon them by IN,
laws are as severe as any reason
