cution of Bieached Flour Suits.

Washington, D. C-Solicitor George
McCabe, of the department of agri-
culture, has been in conference
for the last two days with his assist
ants and with representatives of the
department Of justice over the bleach
ed -four cases, which are soon to be
instituted. 1t is announced that the
preliminary cases will be tried in at
least six states and the details of the
suits are practically completed.

to be brought, and SO far as can be
learned Minnesota, where the millers
voluntarily stopped bleaching -four, is
not concerned in their cases.
Officials of the agricultural depart

port sem from Omaha recently that
the crusade against bleached -four
had been abandoned.

Beverly, Mass, Aug. 16.-In a letter
addressed to Secretary Nagel, Of the
department of and labor,
President Taft served notice that any
man engaged in the taking of the
thirteenth census of the United States
who engages in politics in any way
will Immediately be dismissed from
the service. Outside of casting their
votes the president believes that GER
sus supervisors and enumerators
should keep clear of anything that
savors of politics, national, state or
local.
The president orders hat the sec
rotary of commerce and labor and
the director Of the census embody in
the regulations covering the taking Of
the census the rule SO forcibly laid
down in his letter.
Mr.. Taft a y that in appointing
census supervisors it has been found
necessary to select men recommended
by senators and congressman in their
districts. He says he realizes that
this method of selection might easily
be perverted to political purposes and
1t is to take the census work out of
politics., SO far as the actual work is
concerned hat he has so explicitly
expressed his desire as to the G
lations.
President Taft has told the repre-
sentatives and senators who have
urged various men for census places
that he would insist that no active
partisan should be named, and that
no attempt should be made to build
up a political machine in any state
or district through the distribution OF
the census patronage. The presi-
dents letter in full follows:
One hundred and %thirty-four addi-
tional supervisors of the census were
appointed. President Taft was busy
until late Saturday night signing the
commissions of the successful candi-
dates. Altogether 1874 of the $50 sup
ervisors have been agreed upon. Blu
some are being held up temporarily
on account of protests.

Colorado Woman Gives Reasons FOR Her
Abiding Faith in Cooper.

L. T. Cooper's theory CONCERNING the
human stomach, is being given more re-
spect and comment every day.
Cooper claims that 20 per cent of all I'll
health is due to stomach trouble. When in
t%erviewed about his theory recently. he
said: stomach trouble is the great curse
of the Goth century so far as the civilized
races are concerned. Practically all of the
chronic i'll health Of this generation is
caused by abnormal stomachic conditions.
In earlier days. when the human race was
closer to nature. and men and women
worked all day out of doors, digging their
frugal existence from the soil, the tired,
droopy, half-slck people that are now so
common. did not exist.
ITO be sure, there was sickness in those
days. but it was of n virulent character,
and only temporary, There was none of
this half-sick condition all the time with
which SO many are afflicted nowadays.
II know positively that every bit of this
chronic i'll health is caused by stomach
trouble The human stomach in civilized
people today is degenerate. 1t lacks tone
and strength. This weakness has gradually
come through a 'sedentary existence. I fur
Their know that few people can be sick with
the digestive apparatus in perfect shape.
The sole reason for my success is because
my New Discovery medicine tones the
stomach up to required strength in about
six weeks TIME. That is why l have had
more people come and thank me wherever
l have gone to introduce my medicine, than
L nave had time to talk with"

who are now strong believers in Cooper's
theory and medicine is Mrs. Julia Hof.
City, Colo. Mrs. Hoffllcker says:
For seven years suffered from indi-

tice is Illegal Unless License

LINCOLN. Neb., April l~S.-(special Tele-
gram.)-In answer to an inquiry from
County Attorney Tyrrell of Lancaster
county regarding the legality of the sale
OF liquor in a cafe which is connected with
4 saloon conducted by another party, Al
torney General Thompson today gave out
an opinion.
The attorney general holds that IL the
proprietor of a hotel or cafe occasionally
permits his employees to bring In liquor and
serve the same with the meals served his
guests, the same may not be a violation of
the law. But IL the proprietor of the hotel
designedly countenances such practice and
does 1t for the purpose Of securing trade,
the act would be in violation of the law.
The attorney general holds that where the
hotel or cafe proprietor also owns the sa-
loon, unless his license covers both places
of business, then he is subject to prosecu-
ton If he makes a practice OF selling liquor
with meals served in the cafe. 1t is held
that each case depends upon the facts and
circumstances surrounding the sale.
