Farmers are very busy pre-.

Some of the farmers are com

playing havoc with plants in some
sections.

THE NEW ACADEMY OF MUSIC
Architect, Tells Something Of What The
New BUILDING Will Be Like.

people do not know how really
handsome a place Of amusement
this new theatre is to be. 1t so
far eclipses anything in this Sec
ton, anything in this lstate, that
| have no place in mind which
gives you an idea how fine it will
be. That stage alone gives it an
unusual class and the acoustic
arrangement will surpass any
that | know Of in this state. 1t
will be a gem.
Beginning with the date of its
completion, which is called for in
the bids by September Is. the
features of the theatre as outlin-

fifty-three feet. The proscenium
opening is thirty-four by twenty
six feet. There will be eight
boxes on the first floor with seat
ing capacity Of six and eight peo-
pie. The main floor will be of
concrete placed upon the natural
ground upon which the building
is located. II will be bowl shap-
ed and has a fall from the rear
to the stage of more than four
| feet. The exits from the first
floor will be twelve in number to
the outside and the seating cap
acity will be nearly 600.
THE BALCONY.
The balcony will hold about
500 people. 1t will be of proper
incline to give good sightliness to
to the stage. 1t will have four
stairways leading to it and the
two to the second tier Of boxes
will make six leading TO the bal
cony in addition to the two fire
eacapes. The gallery, or balcony
No. 2, will have a capacity Of
more than 400, and viii have
separate stairways for the whites
and colored. This gallery is so
arranged as to give front seat
70 the two races by having rail-
Ing erected through the center
Of it. 1t will have four stairways
and two fire escapes.
The flNlShiNGS.
The Academy is to be finely
finished in ornamental plaster
and the electrical wiring will be

systems concealed in iron con-
QUITS. There will be ample fire
protection provided by means
E three-inch standpipes and
bose placed through the house
and on the stage. There will be

Present Situation i'm Mamie.

From The Republic.
E. T. Haase, of the A. g. L..
Haase> & Sons Fish Company, Of
No. Ais North Second street, sends
to The Republic letter which he
has received from G. A. Dyer, for
fifty years business man of Port
land, Me, where prohibition is sup
posed to obtain. The letter says:
"Six years since in three-cor-
nered fight for Sheriff Of Cumber-
land County at the State election,
a Democratic Sheriff was elected.
On taking the Office he ran same
on what was called the Bangor
plan. This was to permit all first
class saloons to run wide open for
the sale mostly of lager and ale,
and going for the low dives, kitch-
en- bars, and pocket peddlers. 1t
was found this was in the interest
of temperance, permitting the sale
of light drinks. These places were
closed up at 10 o'clock sharp every
night, Sundays and holidays, and
if any of them opened during that
time they were closed up for good.
"This plan worked SO we'll that
the Sheriff was reelected on a
straight vote, and the county car
ried by good Democratic major
| |ity. It was then to get at the Sher-
| iff that the Republicans enacted
the Sturgis law, which was to ap-
point State Commissioners, and
they appoint Deputy Commissions
ers, to send into counties where
the law was not enforced as the
Republicans wanted it enforced,
and was made to apply to the three
counties that had Democratic
|Sheriffs, but it did not work, and
the next election the Democratic
Sheriff of Cumberland was again
elected by a very large majority.
The Sheriff received more than
1000 majority in Cumberland
County.
"The Legislature then voted to
repeal the Sturgis law and 1t was
vetoed BY Governor Cobb, at that
time Governor, and at the next
election he received q little over

MRS. LAURA RUSSELL,
Logan, Iowa.
When the heart action is
weak, it fails to pump the blood
through the lungs with sufficient
rapidity. Then the lungs do not
absorb the proper amount Of
oxygen, although they may be
taking in normal amount of
air. The result is shortness Of
breath, smothering spells, diff
cult breathing, oppressed feeling
in chest. DIR. Miles Heart Rem
edy strengthens the heart nerves
and muscles, and in this way
increases the circulation.

Osteopathic Catechism.
tFrom osteopathic Health.l

tFrom osteopathic Health.l
THE TERM LESION" EXPLAINED
@. What is a 'tlesion?"
A. Any departure from the
normal in form or position in the
human anatomy may be regarded
as an osteopathic "lesion." We
restrict the term usually to desig-
nate mechanical obstruction of
some sort which operates as the
first cause of disease. For exam
pie: a vertebra sprung somewhat
from it's correct alignment, a rib
rotated at it's hinging with the back
bone, congested ligament or mus
Gle, or an irritated nerve. In con-
trast, abnormal functioning itself
may constitute a lesion in the more
strict ''medical' use of the word ],
such as an Inflammation or a fever.
In fact, the term ''lesion" is used
almost anonymously with the
word symptom" by "M. D.'s,"
just as might be expected in lit
erature where symptomatic effects
of disease are exalted to the digni-
| ty OF representing disea se- causes.
The osteopathic use of the term
"lesion" is new and distinct, and
it is restricted to defining those abb
normalities in the human tissues
which our school has proven to
cause diseases so commonly and
which yet are not usually recog-
nized by any other school of prac-
tice.
| @. Why does osteopathy make
the claim that it goes back to the
first cause of disease more care
fully than other systemsp
A. Because instead of classify
ing symptoms-the results of dis
ease, and resting diagnosis there,
it insists upon searching tirelessly
for adequate physical 'lesions'
which are to be found back of and
underlying symptoms, usually in
connection with the nerve centers
in the spinal cord. Any obstruc-
ton or 'lesion" occurring in the
course Of the nerve or blood supply
to the centers for heart and lungs,
for example, will be apt to devel-
Top trouble in the work OF one or
both Of those organs. So on
throughout the system. Osteopathy
is tho first medical system to search for
the starting and "starving" point Of
physiological troubIe--not wasting
time unduly with the endless pano-
rama of fleeting symptoms, but
going back directly to the center
whore the original cause is usually
to be found in the form of some
sort of mechanical blockade to nu-
triton.

5000 majority in State that gem
orally gave from 10000 to $4,000
majority Republican. The Stur-
gis Deputies never were sent into
Cumberland County, of which
Portland is the greater part. They
were sent into a few of the other
counties, but the business OF SELL
ing rum in these q mites was prac-
tically kept wide open.
"The Republican prohibitionists
at one time talked of having the
Democratic ShernAo of Cumberland
County impeached, but when they
looked into the business they found
he could not be impeached with
out impeaching every Sheriff in

same boat and running on the Ban

greater portion of the time.

that has been backing it up in the
same condition, and Neal Dow's
Maine prohibitory law, excepting
cider, has seen it's best days here;
and the great majority of the citi-

if they handle it carefully they
will surely get burnt or burned.

A Request and Answer.


A timely reply to a famous busi-
ness firm that was an enthusiastic
supporter OF the republican ticket
and is now a vigorous objector to
republican legislation.
Marshall Field & Co., of Chica-
go, as we'll as other business firms
are callinp upon their patrons to
assist in the defeat of the republi-
can tariff law. This firm has sent
a large number of circulars to var
ious sections of the country. The
following correspondence between
Marshall Field & Co., and G. L.
Welsh & Co., a mercantile COM
pany of Blandinsyille, ILL.,, will be
particularly interesting at this
time:
G. L. Welsh & Co.-Gentlemen:
In sending you the enclosed
pamphlet we call your attention to
a subject which we believe vitality
affects your business interests and
is of great Importance to your Gus
toners. In the interest of domes-
tic manufacturers, the ways and
means committee of the house Of
representatives has incorporated
in the proposed tariff bill largely
increased rates upon cotton hosi-
cry and women's leather gloves.
These advances can only be de-
feated by concerted action, and we,
therefore, urge upon you the inn
portance of wiring or writing to
your congressman and senators at
Washington, protesting against
the action that has been taken.
All the large newspapers of the
country have taken stand against
this action and doubtless your To-
cal editors would be glad to pub
lish the facts we are sending you.
Yours very truly,
MARSHALL FIELD & co.
BLANDINSVILLE, ILL.
Marshall Field & Co. Co.-Gentlemen: !:
Your letter and request, in regard
to our using our influence with our
Representative against the propos-
| ed Payne tariff bill, has been re-
ceived. We, of the common peo-
pie, are sorry to state that we
would have very little influence
with the present administration.
Furthermore the people had a
chance to elect real tariff reform
candidates only last fall and re-
jected them. We do not believe
any intelligent voter thought the
successful candidates were for re-
vision downward, therefore they
are only getting what they voted
| for.
While we voted for the real tar
| iff reform candidates and are heart
| lily in sympathy with that policy,
yet we believe in majority rule and
do not think we should do any
thing to thwart the will of the peo-
pie as expressed at the polls, even
should we have that power.
Should the pending bill prove as
bad as you seem to think, the peo-
pie can elect officials, who will
quickly repeal it at the next elect
ion. And zoe earnestly hope yoat will
use your great Influence before, IN
stead Of after the election, AGAINST the
special privilege corporation candi-
dates. Respectfully,
G. L. WEIGH & Co.
