,WEsIPORI

One MT. Harvey P. Martin, claim bile concern, from Buffalo, came to town a few days ago for the Osten- sible purpose of renting the Stanley Watts place on Imperial avenue. He liked the house, smoked good cigars, as. most promoters do, and then went Ito the grocery stores and ordered things to eat to be sent up, giving Tn return cheeks which were readily >cashed, the crisp greenbackS in eX- change going into his we'll filled pocketbook. In this way he cap tured not far from $60 from local merchants who were glad to see MT. Martin and secure his trade. He was 6 man of about 40 years, smooth of tongue, good looking, we'll dressed and very plausible. The rose colored story he told captured all who heard it, and straightway the news was eobbled up that he was coming to Westport to live. The tid bit was a God-send to reporters. Alas! the slick Mr. Martin departed this town by an evening train, and wrote that he would have to defer his coming as his sweet wife was not quite ready to move into the Watts house.

Give Your Stomach
 A Vacation
By Using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Which Digest Food Without
 Any Aid
A Trial Package Sent Free

The stomach should have a rest when it is tired out and irritated from dyspepsia and indigestion. One should not call upon the stomach in this con dition to do it's full and complete duty. What the stomach needs is natural assistance and when this is given it the stomach responds quickly to the needed rest and comes back to its duties refreshed and invigorat9d.
 When you feel as though your stom- ach were piece of lead, when gases or foul odor issue from your throat, when your tongue is coated and your appetite gone, it is high time to send your stomach on a vacation.
 The stomach is constantly coming in contact with foreign substances, which it must reduce in form to give strength and health to the other or gans of the body It is the commits sary department of the human sys- tenn and must furnish from such sup plies as come to it all that such a system demands.
 If the stomach becomes deranged and cannot furnish all that is neces- sary, it weakens the entire machinery of man and is itself placed out of commission. It cannot cure itself be cause the curative powers of Nature receive their force from the stomach, so that if the stomach issues imper- feet noUrishment it cannot receive rer- feet curative means for it's own bene- fit.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets impart all the power, vigor and strenetl nee, essary to the stomach. They do the stornach's work and without calling on this organ for assistance.
 If you would put your meal in a glass jar and with it place the correct amount of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets you could st down and watch these little tablets digest the meal as per feotly as the most healthy stomach This dem onstration has been made in almost every state in the Union by these tablets, one grain of @ single in- predient being capable of digesting 5000 grains of food.
 If you have the slightest doubt about vour stomach, go to the nearest drug store and buy a box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. price soc. or send us your name and address and we will imn nediately send you by mail a trial package free. Address F. A. Stuart CO, 15O Stuart Bldg, Marshall, Mich

AGAIN "sHEARING THE LAMBS

Two very significant statements, of special interest to stock spectators, appear in Banker Clews weekly re- view of Wall Street conditions. In accounting for the recent declines in values. he says: 'It was very evident that the big holders of securities and prominent banking interests had with drawn their support from the market v Since then. he says. c"stocks the last few days have drifted into stronger hands, and the indications are that the market leaders are quietly absorb Ing good securities whenever offered at a sacrifice That is, s'the mar ket leaders, withdrew their support In order to break down prices and then. having effected that purpose. loaded up at the low prices for dis posal at the cor'ing higher prices pre- iicted by MT. yClews as follows: "Se- curities have now had heavy shrink age, fully discounting all known draw backs. and as soon as the readJust- ment now in progress is completed we from present depression" It is the familiar old game which has always caught the gudgeons'' and will prob ably never be any less successful. The money powers can always turn the trick" and invariably do so when eyer the 'lambs' evince ripeness for shearing.
 With regard to the agitation over the high cost of living, MT. Clews says:
 There is no doubt that a halt was necessary in the upward movement of Commodities. The consumer had all ready been puhed to the point of ex- haustion, and discomfort was spread ing, threatening a widespread labor agitation The latter is stilN a dis turbing possibility and will continue to be so for some time to come. In all probability the differences between labor and employers will be settled by lower prices for many staples, which will diminish the cost of living, and by moderate concessions in the matter of wages. The index figures for Jan uary should show a decrease, since many articles have declined in price during the past month, especially those which enter most largely into the cost of living. The agitation against high prices has not been with out good effect, inasmuch as it has developed a more conservative spirit in business. and probably less extra vagant habits at home.
 It is. evidently MT. Clews' opinion that the trusts have finally sensed the expediercy of halting the upward move of commodities and will endea- vor to check the agitation with small declines in their prices, and to placate
 
 matter of wages This would allow the trusts to eventually return to present prices. It is not what the people desire and demand viz. a per- manent remedy for the existing evil.

obligations of the corporation. The directors, and a majority large in eX- cess of tWo-thirds of the shareholders Of the defendant, have determined to | make such a dedication of a large amount of accumulated property rep resenting a surplus over and above it's present capital stock and indebt- ednesS, which is invested in the plant and business, but, unless some such
 step be taken, might, at any time, be diverted from the uses of the cor poration to those of the shareholders, by turning it into cash and declaring
 a dividend therefrom.
 Judge Baldwin says: There can be
 no doubt that such action was fully
 within the power of it's directors with the approval of the necessary major
 ity of the shareholders prior to the
 revision of our general incorporation
 laws in 1903." No limitations which
 initiate against such a stock dividend
 are imposed by the defendants char
 ter or by any statute. The letter of
 Section 12 of the act of 1903 gives
 some support to the plaintiffs conten- ton, but is controlled by it's spirit
 and object. That object was twofo1d,
 to preclude the issue of certificates
 for stock until the shares are fully paid for; and to prevent the accept ance of property other than cash at
 valuation greater than the sum which il is actually worth.
 a"'We are of the opinion that Sec
 ton 12 of the act of 1903 does not
 forbid stock dividends to those who
 have not made g. technical subscrip-
 tlon for the stock. Such dividends
 are fully recognized as a mode of
 separating the accumulated earnings
 Of corporation from the corpus of
 it's assets and dividing them between
 the shareholders by Section BIT of
 the General Statutes.
 "In determining the equities be-
 tween the parties it is also to be re- membered that the defendant com , pany since 1882 has had the right to
 increase its capital stock to not ex-
 ceeding $2.00O,000 par value and to use and dispose of new stock LID to
 that limit from time to time as the
 stockholders may direct. The stock issue now in question is within this l limit The fund of which the plain tiff is a trustee was constituted in 1901. AS a shareholder in the de- fendant comnanv it received the stock 1 subject to all the provisions of it's charter. The ordinary manner in which stockholders in a corporation give directions is. in the absence of statutory or charter provisions to the
 contrary. by. vote of the majority of the shares represented at meet
 1rg of the corporation duly called. To
 sanction the issue of the shares now i in question a majority of two-t thirds; of the stock was rednired by the act of 1903. Nothing either in the de- fendant's charter or in the. general i law required unanimity. The plain. tiff therefore has made out no case for relief.
 The superior court is advised to dissolve the temporary injunction. | oVerr1lle the demurrer to the answer and dismiss the complaint

President Waters on Chicago Stock Show

Pres. Fl. J. Waters of the Kansas
Agricultural College, on recent oc-
casion expressed himself as follows:
"The international Live Stock Ex-
position, which will this year be held
from November 18th to December
Sd, is the court of last resort in all
matters pertaining to the improve
ment of live stock. 1t is the place
where all controversies regarding
superior merit are settled for the
year, and as such contributes more
to live stock Improvement than any
other single agency in America. AS
an object lesson it is unequalled on
the continent. AS means of awak-
ening interest in improved live stock
it and similar shows are indispensss
able. 1t is liberal education in live
stock production for any farmer,
breeder or student to attend the In
ternational."
