A STARTLING STATEMENT
New York Medical Authorities
Claim Dyspepsia Causes
Consumption.

The post mortem statistics OF the
big New York hospitals show that
some cases of consumption are due to
unchecked dyspepsia, especially when
the victim was predisposed to tuberc-
ulosis,
Dyspepsia wears out the body and
brain. the weakened. irritable stomach
is unable to digest food, the body does
not receive the required nourishment.
constipation ensues and the victim be-
comes thin, weak and haggard. AS
a result the body becomes a fertile
field for the germs OF disease TO lodge
and flourish.
Therefore, the person who permits
dyspepsia to progress unhindered is
guilty Of contributing toward the de-
velopment OF one Of the most insid-
ious and fatal diseases known to man
kind
Dyspepsia is curable II properly
treated. The T. H. Carr Drug Co. sell
q remedy which they positively guar
antee will cure indigestion or dyspep-
sia or they will pay for all the medi-
cine used during the trial. This rem
edy is an absolutely new medical dis
covery and has been named Rexall
Dyspepsia Tablets. Certainly no Of
fer could be more fair, and the OFFER
of the T, II. Carr Drug Co. is proof
positive that Rexall Dyspepsia Tab
lets are a dependable and infallible
remedy Inasmuch as the medicine
Will cost you nothing II 1t does not
benefit you we urge you who are suf-
fcrlng with indigestion or dyspepsia
To try this remedy. A twenty-five
cent box OF Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets
contains enough medicine for fifteen
days treatment Remember Rexal
Dyspepsia Tablets are only sold in
Ogden by the #. H. Carr Drug co.

NO DISCRIMINATION.

Senator Geo. Nixon OF Nevada
takes a broad and sensible view
OF the tariff question. He is OPP
posed to tariff discriminating against
the West. In an interview, he says:
Il want all the products of the West
protected Hides. In my opinion, are
Just as worthy of protection as shoes
and leather know the manufacturer
calls hides his raw material. ] also
know that the cattle raisers of the
West believe hides are their finished
product They believe in the protect
I've principle, but 1t will not do to give
the manufacturers OF the East protec-
tion and the farmer of the West free
trade. The Republican party Will not
commit the folly of indorsing a policy
as suicidal as that would be-"
The tariff, If made sectional, would
rob protection of the strongest argu-
ment In Its favor. The protective tar
in is supposed to be so equltably ap'
piled as to benefit all sections OF the
country, inlicting burden on no par
ticular industry, but to protect the
East and fall to protect the West
would leave western Republicans with
out a single line of defense In support
of the corner stone of the structure on
wnich their Republicanism Is built
Our hides and wool and lead must
receive the same kindly consideration
that is extended to the raw and manu-
factured products Of the East.

GOLD PRODUCTION.


The record OF the worlds gold pro-
duction for 1908. as complied by the
Financial Chronicle OF New York,
shows a renewed tendency to increase
not alone In South Africa. but In most
other gold producing countries. Pro-
duction In 1906 for the first time
reached the figure OF S400,0O0,0 900. In
1907 IL was $412, 100000. but the South
African mines alone expanded their
output by nearly $4,000. .O0O-leaving
for other producing countries on the
average u decline from 1906. Last
year, however. production jumped to
S434.S72 ,657-an increase over 1907
of S22 400, 900, of which the South At
rican mines contributed S16.170,000.
leaving a considerable gain for tho
rest of the gold-producing world. And
with the exception of Australia all the
other principal producing regions
show an Increase.
The worlds gold output In 1882
amounted only to s99,757. 800. That
was the low point OF recent times.
From 1882 to 1888 production was
nearly stationary, increasing only to
about s107,00O,000. But In the latter
year tho South African mines began
10 be opened and since then, with the
interruption caused by the Boer war.
the worlds gold production has been
expanding to an extent never before
known, and with rapidity only equal
ed by the California discoveries in
1850. t.0c
The large increase for the United
States In recent years has been chief
ly due to the Alaskan discoveries,
which. on the Canadian side Of the
line, brought the Dominion Into no.
tice as q gold producer. But Canada
of late has been relapsing again. The
Klondike discoveries raised It's annual
production from less than 100000
ounces to 1,350,475 In 1900, since
which time there has been steady
decline to 464, 400 ounces last year.
The American side of the Alaskan
line has done better-last years pro-
duction being 1912, 52S ounces, against
s94,42 in 1907 and 1,033,53 In 1906
Next to and ahead of Alaska comes
Colorado as a gold producer-that
state yielding 1,109,522 ounces last
year.
For the same years as above the
worlds total gold production In ounces
and values has been as follows:

BILL. INTRODUCED D
THAT PLEASfS
C[ERGYNEN
1T PLACES A RESTRICTION UPON
DIVORCED PERSONS.
The Latter May 6o Fined For Prevail
Ing Upon Ministers to Marry
Them BY Misrepresentation.

Chicago. March 3.-Chicago clergy
men heartily endorse a bill introduc-
ed In the legislature providing for
fine or imprisonment for divorced per
sons who, by falsehood and misrepre-
sentntion, prevail upon ministers to
marry them. It Is intended to remedy
defect In the state law which pro-
yides that no divorced person shall
re-marry within one year. and In some
cases two years after the decree or
divorce. This act provides no means
whereby the clerk issuing the license,
OF the clergyman performing the Ger
emony, can ascertain the facts except
by inquiry of the principals to the
marriage. and provides no penalty for
the making of false answers
THE Catholic church Is In favor OF
the BILL" said Chancellor E NJ.
Dunno. while the church recognizes
no such thing as divorce. we have
canonical impediments which operate
to annul a marriage, Misrepresenta-
tion in regard to one of these impedi-
ments occasionally induces priest to
perform a marriage ceremony that is
afterward found to be without valid
ity"
This bill ought to be enacted into
law" said Rev. w. c. Dewitt, of the
Western Theological Seminary. Per
sonally. believe that no clergyman
should marry a couple he does not
know.
There are occasions. however. when
minister is called upon to marry a
couple with whom he is not acquaint-
ed. and for whom there is no one to
vouch, and this law win not only pro-
tect the clergy man from imposition.
but will be an accommodation to tho
Couples themselves"

INSIDE HISTORY OF THE
WATER DEAL.

The city council Is In a muddle.
When House Bill No. 156 appeared.
several members of the council were
taken by surprise. The publication
of the bill In the Standard was the
first chance given to at least four
members of the council TO read the
measure. Then there was a hurried
conference at which only a few mem
bers of the council were present One
OF the councilmen said Tuesday he
did not know where those on the In
side met, but he presumed the coun-
ell meeting was held on the street
as he had no knowledge of It until IN
committee Of the whole last week he
was informed that such a meeting had
been held.
In committee of the whole one OF
the councilmen asked why it was
necessary to discuss such an import
ant measure as the water commission
bill behind closed doors, and he failed
to receive an answer. Then another
councilman wanted to know the real
object of the meeting and he was in
formed that the councilmen were to
consider the amendments to the bill.
III the council Is not responsible for
the bill. as you have stated" spoke I'D
another councilman. why do you call
us here to act on something OF which
we are not the authors, and II we arc
fathering this bill why have two or
three councllmen. with Mr.. DeVine.
take upon themselves to act for the
entire council by proceeding to Salt
Lake at great speed to inform the leg
islators what the city administration

men In this council are arrogating to
themselves the duties and preroga-
tives of the entire council and are
contemptuously ignoring other mem
bers OF the council who are forced to
carry with them the burden and od-
ium of this proposed legislation"
Four councilmen are in open revolt
although on the vote last Monday
evening there were but two votes re-
corded against the water commission
bill, Since Monday the councilmen
] have been hearing from their constit-
uents. with the result that the men,
bers of the council whose Judgment
against the bill was warped by con-
descending to the judgment OF a ma
jority have since been openly declar-
ing their opposition.
