have cause for jubilation in the fact
that efforts to revive the Northern
League of baseball clubs in this state
are meeting with more general sup
port than was expected. With a four
team league consisting of clubs in
Barre, Montpelier Burlington and
Rutland the sport would be placed on
something like the old basis Fans
In this vicinity include men, women
and children from all walks of life,
and there is no more healthful re-
creation than that of witnessing a
good, snappy baseball game, between
clubs which know how to handle the
spheres, mits- and bats artistically.'
The time seems quite ripe for start.
ing another season of the sport in
Barre and Montpelier, if anyone
should have the courage to shoulder
the undertaking; but it is probable
that Barre Montpelier team would
have to be financed by private indiv
iduals, rather than by an association

CANCER LAID TO ovEREATINe
Physician Says That Victims Of Hard
Times Are Apt to Escape II

Washington, May Elm paper
presented to the American Climatic
logical association DR.. X. G.. Curtin
of Philadelphia takes issue with those
who have contended recently that
cancer was caused by eating fish, par
ticularly trout. He stated that sta
tistics showed that cancer is more
common in those centers OF popula.
ton where not one person in so ate
trout. The country lad who lived on
trout, he said, seldom was afflicted.
His position was that cancer probably
was caused by over-nutritlon.
Among other conclusions he drew
were that cancer was increasing, that
it seemed to be hereditary, that It
was more common in temperate reg
ions; that blacks and dark-skinned
peoples seemed somewhat immune
and that it was more common among
the better fed. DR.. Curtin said that
during hard times, when the poor had
to live on a scant amount of food
cancer among them decreased.

THE BEMIDJI CONVENTION.

Mackenzie, of Bemidji, to be held in
that city on Thursday and Friday
next, is certain to result in much of
benefit to Northern Minnesota.
Good Roads, disappointment
and the relation of these two SUBJ

and rightfully so, as they are of vital
importance to this community.
Reports from all sections indicate a
large attendance.
In our opinion no section can
afford to shirk its duty, and should
have representatives IN attendance

Situation on Railroads East of Chi

New York, Feb. THE wage stu
alton on the railroads east of Chi
cago is rapidly approaching a critical
conference state.
On the conferences now on between
the Baltimore and Ohio and the Ohio
Trainmen and the Order of Railway
Conductors may hinge the question of
a general strike, according to the rail-
road men in this city.
That railroad officials realize there
in this city have unequivocally reject
ed the demands made for more wages
and have invited offers of compro.
mise character no offer has been made
by the unions. They state that they
are awaiting the outcome of the nego-
tiations in Baltimore and the return to
this city of the grand chiefs of the
two brotherhoods.
That the railroad officials realize there
is much at stake in the Baltimore con.
ference is shown by the refusal of the
officials to make any statements for
publication suggesting the probable
outcome. ...

Force Now Eighty Miles Distant
President Madriz Continues to Issue
Statements Hiding the True State Of
Affairs. @..
Managua, Feb. L--Nothing now
stands in the way of General Chamor-
ro's advance against Managua. The
capture Of Matagalpa, eighty miles
northeast Of here, by the revolution
lists, following the defeat of a govern.
ment force near Muymuy, under Gen
eral Carrero, opens the road to the
capital and it is not believed possible
that General Vasquez, commander of
the government forces, can throw an
intercepting army between Matagalpa
and Managua. -r..
Madriz continues to issue statements
that the government forces have been
generally victorious, but he is either
himself deceived or is attempting to
deceive the public. r..
The city is greatly alarmed and the
prospect of an attack on the capital is
driving many of President Madriz'
former adherents from him. The gen
eral belief is that it would be the
height of folly to attempt to give bat
tie to Chamorro, providing he has an
army of 5000, as is reported.

Old Folks Should be Careful in their
Selection Of Regulatiye
Medicine.

With advanced age comes inact-
i've bowel movement and sluggish
liver. Nature is unable to perform
her proper functions and requires
assistance. Otherwise, there is
constant suffering from constipa-
ton and its attendant evils. Old
folks should never use physic. that

quirements of aged people and per-
sons of weak constitution who

bowel disorder. We are so GER
tain that it will completely relieve
these complaints and give absolute
satisfaction in every particular
that we offer them with our per-
sonal guarantee that they shall
cost the user nothing if they fail
to substantiate our claims. This
remedy is called Rexall Orderlies.
Rexall Orderlies are eaten like
candy. They have a soothing,
healing, Strengthening, tonic and
regulative action upon the dry mu-
cous lining and the relaxed mus
cular coat of the bowel. They
produce a natural, successive con-
traction and relaxation of the mus
cular hbres of the bowel walls,
generating a wavelike motion
which forces their contents onward
and outward; thus stimulating ma
ture in perfect bowel movement.
They tone up and strengthen the
nerves and muscles and restore
the bowels and associate organs to
more vigorous and healthy activity.
They may be taken at any time
without Inconvenience; do not
cause any gripping, nausea, diar-
rhea, excessive looseness, hatu-
lence or other disagreeable effect.

REDMOND OUTLINES POLICY

Says Irish Nationalist Will Insist on
CURLING Lords.
Dublin, Feb. 12.-John q. Redmond
who was reelected president of the
national directory of the United Irish
league, made an important pronounce
ment of his policy at q banquet given
in his honor.
The leader of the Nationalists plain
~ outlined his intention at the COM
ing session of parliament, where he
virtually holds the balance between
the two great English parties.
In a word, his intention Is to put
out the government unless it has both
the will and the power to deal with
the question of the house of lords
veto, but he is ready to vote for the
budget provided Premier Asquith
sticks to his pledge to resign Office
unless he gets the power to deal with
the lords.
