CAUSES DEBILITY.
Here Arc Facts Backed Up by "a
strong Guarantee.

Catanrh causes debility. In our
opinion. most people suffering from
general debility have catarrh. Such
cases of debility cannot be completely
cured by medicine not designed to
eradicate catarrh. In every case
where our remedy fails to give entire
satisfaction we will not charge a cent
for the medicine employed during the
trial. Now, surely no one should hesi-
tate TO believe us or TO put our claim
TO practical test under such condl-
lions. We will take all the risk; no
one else can lose anything by the
transaction.
We make these statements and this
offer because We know and have time

Tone rar ly fails to do as we claim.

every disease that flesh is heir to. 1t

ELECTRIFICATION OF RAIL
ROADS.

Chairman Knapp, of the interstate
commerce commission, says that rail-
roads generally are considering
electrification, and in Germany
where ii has been thoroughly tried,
IL Is believed electricity will super
cede steam, as it has been proven
electricity will haul the heaviest
loads at a minimum cost. The New
Haven railroad and the Union Pacific
have been experimenting with il.
Cities are urgently demanding the
electrification CT terminals to abate
the smoke nuisance, and they Will
eventually win
The development OF electricity by
water power. especially in mountain
Gus countries, adds to the prospect OF
eventual electrifcation, as power can
be generated that way more cheaply
than any other way. As fuel be-
comes more scarce this question OBJ
trudes more and more on the man.
aging heads of transportation lines.
In all probability such a fall of water
as we have in Paducah at the juno
ture of the two rivers. some day will
be utilized. Necessity will add its
force to the investigation of Its posi-
bilities. The future holds no greater
field for development than that of
electricity.

EVERY ACTION HAS ITS EQUAL
AND OPPOSITE REACTION.

The reaction from the national
election was felt in the election Tues
day, and Democratic majorities and
reduced Republican majorities were
everywhere apparent. The result also

tional RepubliCan personages that

Welt assumed the presidential chair,

big Republican gains. But Ohio had

cities had electe d Democratic mayors

TAMMANY AS A REFoRMER.

Tammany as a reform force in
New York is a new thing: but IL is
generally conceded that Tammany
did more for civic righteousness in
New York at the recent election than
was ever done before, even by the
most ardent pufists. For instance it
elected Judge William Gaynor mayor

How They See IL.

BY the vote of the people at Tues
days election the Democratic ticket
is victorious and John H. Whallen
comes into power as the boss of the
party and the administration that
he named.
II is vain to indulge in regrets.
The Herald has none, so far as its
share in the fight is concerned. II
accepts the verdict as the deliberate
choice of the voters. and stands this
morning, where IL has always stood,
loyal to the ideals and principles of
government which ii supported dur
ing the campaign. and ready as ever
to fight for them when opportunity
presents itself.
We congratulate Mr.. Head and his
associates; but the congratulation Is
mingled with pity for them. Never
did men enter office more heavily
handicapped by malignant influence
and dangerous friends. The pres
ence of John Whallen as the domi-
nant factor behind the new admin
istration is a menace to IL in every
effort ii may make to keep the fair
promises of good government made
to the people. The support of the

ed their will at the polls on Tuesday
and their verdict is a victory for Law,
Order and .Decency. While the head
of the ticket went down in defeat, he
made a gallant fight and made ii pos
sible for the councilmanic ticket to
win.
With a reform council and the

give them a clean and progressive
administration, the people of Hender-
son have much to congratulate them
selves upon.-Henderso Cleaned.

MAKING LOVE BY THE WHISTLE.

MAKING LOVE BY THE WHISTLE.
Nine Nesta La Viesta, a suffra-
gette, in a speech in New York de-
clared that as soon as women gain
legislative control, they will enact
laws, limiting the working day to
four hours in order to give men time
20 make love. TIE fact that men
have been in control so long and
have never thought of extending the
hours of courtship, awakens the hor-
rid possibility that the men would
rather work than make love, or, II

During the campaign just closed
and before the result is known, the
Messenger desires to say that il has
conducted its part of the campaign
along the lines of Democratic
paper. fighting for Democratic
supremacy because il believes in the
rule of the Democratic party. There
has been no side issue which has
sweryed it from the main points
of the campaign. Unfortunately
there have been attempts to lug in
other questions, but the Messenger
has hewed straight to this one line.

was no less gratifying to Democrats
than the result in Greensboro.

tire Democratic ticket win in Louis

The Democrats win both branches
of the general assembly of Kentucky

will be able to pass any measure
over the veto of the queer little Re

of them, except in Lexington and

were bad.-Owensboro Messenger.

FAMILIES IN RAIN
At SCHOENVILLE
More Evicted From Com
pany's Houses Strike
Costs $6,O00,0O0.

PITTSBURG, Pa, Aug. 2s.-A cold.
drizzllng rain fell on McKee's Rocks
and schoenviIIe today. And ii fell on
homeless families OF strikers Of the
Pressed Steel Car Works. who had been
evicted from the company houses.
Many OF the families evicted today had
no place TO go and friends were busy
endeavorng to arrange for some place
to house the unfortunates.
More than fifty striker breakers left
the plant today. It is estimated that
the strike has now cost the strikers,
company. and county q total Of S6, ,O90, 600.
The loss TO the men has been large.
Five thousand men are engaged in the
strike. Their salaries average s. per
day. and in the thirty-nine full days
and six Sundays on half force their sal
aries lost total $4,000.
The county has now expended ss3, $50
on the strike. Between 100 and 200 dep
uty sheriffs have been on duty con-
stantly on an average pay of s. per
day, which has made the cost to the
county $50 per day for the forty-five
days the strike has been on.
With the completion of the first
days investigation in the Govern
ment's efforts to thresh out the
charges OF penage that were brought
against President Hoffstot. of the
Pressed Steel Car Company, the strikers
today term the proceedings a white
wash" and further armed clashes are
feared
Though W. II. Hoagland, special agent
of the Department of Justice. questioned
more than eighty strikebreake-s in the
plant not one of them stated that he
had been held against his viii The
strikers, however, point to the fact that
more than 200 strikebreakers have left
the works in the last two days. These,
they say, are the men who were clubSed
and held. but were released as soOu as
an investigation was threatened.
The men examined yesterday complain
ed of the food they received, and stated
that they were not being paid as wen
as the representatives of the company
said they would be.
The strike district passed the quietest
night Ia weeks. The streets were en-
tireIy deserted, and the guards were
withdrawn by IL o'clock.
