he wanted to, or had these men

not have closed those houses up in

women in this poor old lady's
house, and suppose, gentlemen of
the council, that instead of this
one house being grated upon this
entire city had been infected with
this wrong. l don't believe all po-
licemen are corrupt. There are a
great many honorable men, and
believe they will come to the re-
lief of this city and come to the
relief of the women, and purge from
the ranks any corrupt man that
lives among them, because they
cannot exist from this time on in
this community. So l say that step
by step--I am not going to talk
about the impediments that have
been thrown in the way of this
councils proceeding-these charges
were lodged with the council; we
were than harassed by an opposi-
ton on the part of Mr.. Sullivan to
be tried before them-this council.
He said he would not be tried be-
fore them; that Sthey were preju-
diced. He then went over to the
court and got writ of prohibition,
prohibiting this council from hear
ing him, from hearing these
charges, and then it was said that
he could be proceeded with.

Some folks have tried so long to
find relief from Indigestion and
Dyspepsia or an out-of-order stom-
ach with the common everyday
cures advertised that they have
about made up their minds that
they have something else wrong,
or believe theirs is a case of Ner-
vousness, Gastritis, Catarrh of the
Stomach or Cancer.
This, no doubt, is a serious mis-.
take. Your real trouble is, what
you eat does not digest; instead, it
ferments and sours, turns to acid,
Gas and Stomach poison, which
putrefy in the digestive tract and
intestines, and, besi(S -, poison the
breath with nauseous odors.
A hearty appetite, with thorough
digestion, and without the slightest
discomfort or misery of the Stom-
ach, is waiting for you as soon as
you decide to try Pape's Diapepsin.
