TwIcE-ToLD TESTIMONY.
Brattleboro People Are Doing All They
Can for Fellow Sufferers.

Brattleboro testimony has been pub
lished to prove the merit of Doan s
Kidney Pills to others in Brattleboro
who suffer from bad backs and kidney
ills. Lest any sufferer doubt that the
cures made by Doan g Kidney Pills are
thorough and lasting, we produce con-
frmed proof-statement from Brattle-
boro people saying that the cures they
told of years ago were permanent.
Here's Brattleboro case:
F. B. Warner, II Canal street, Brat
tleboro, VT, says: II am as enthusi-
astic in my praise of Doan's Kidney
Pills today as ever and willingly recon-
mend them again. In 1905, while living
in Bellows Falls, I told of the great
good this remedy had done me and |
now confirm that statement and say that
there is nothing equaled to this remedy
for curing kidney and bladder trouble. -
For sale by all dealers. Price so cents.

McNAMARAs CONFESSED.
James B. Gets Life Sentence for Dyna-
hitting Times Building-John Is Years.

The sensational trial at Los Angeles
Cal, of James and John Mcnamara, on
charge OF causing the dynamite explosions
in that city in October 1910, came To
sudden and dramatic end last Friday IN the
formal confessions of both men that they
were guilty of the crimes charged, james
Mcnamara confessed in open court that
he placed the bomb under the Los Angeles
Times building, which on exploding caused
the death of 81 people at work at the time
The Times has always been deter
mined foe of union labor. John Mcnamara,
the older brother, also confessed to having
tried to blow up building belonging to an
iron establishment the following December
These confessions were brought about by
the attorney for the accused, Mr., barrow,
who did it to save their lives, seeing that
they had not the slightest chance against
the overwhelming evidence of their guilt
secured by Detective Burns. whose work
on the case marks him as the most accom-
plished detective living today Tuesday IN
court at Los Angeles the Mcnamara broth
ers were sentenced, James to life imprison
ment, and John to u years confinement,
more or less.
From the fact that these crimes were
committed in the cause of labor, and by
men prominent in labor councils, and be
cause the labor unions all over the coun.
try had raised fund of some S2O0,WO for
the defence of the accused, there has been
much discussion in and out OF the news
papers as to the interest in and connection
of the labor unions with this affair. Union
men now from President Gompers down to
the humblest worker, are quick and strong
in denouncing the criminals who have I'M
posed upon their credulity so outrageously,
and insist upon their severest punishment.
1t is realized now that the union was too
hasty in rushing to the defence of the men
without careful consideration of the case
against them.
Since 1900 there have been 80 cases of
dynamite outrages, more or less destruct-
i've, in different parts of the country. In
nearly every case there was trouble, real
or fancied, between the contractors engag-
ed on the works and the laborers, and there
was reason to believe that revenge was the
anmatng cause of the dynamiting. Last
April an attempt was made to destroy the
splendid tower of the new 100000
municipal group of buildings in Springfield,
Mass. 1t fortunately failed, though hole
a yard square was blown in the base. This
deed has been positively traced to the Nc
Namara gang of dynamiters.
1t is declared that others are yet to be
apprehended and that the government will
shortly get its clutches on certain men who
are believed to be the originators and lead
ers of the devilish conspiracy.
A startling feature of the case is the firm
declaration of Detective Burns, that Presi-
dent Gompers of the American Federation
of Labor knew that the McNamaras were
guilty all the time that he was urging the
raising of money for their defence.

RAILROAD EXTENSION WORK.
New Trolley Line TO be Ready for Use
in Comparatively Short Time.

Barring accidents, Crosby & Parker
will complete LAYING rails on the Wash
ineton street and South Main street eS,
tension of the street railroad today, aud
il il expected that the extension will be
ready for operation by week from TO-
morrow. Work was almost nj stand
still for few hours Wednesday morn
ing but the weather was with the con,
tractors and the temperature climbed
sufficiently high in the afternoon to en-
able the workmen TO make progress with
rail.laying operations, and that night
found the road completed TO point
about half way between Pine street ana
Oak Grove avenue. Yesterday opera
tions were rushed and but n short dis
lance remained unfinished this morning
The bonds for electrically connecting
the rails arrived yesterday and force
of men went TO work placing them IN
position. The railroad company at once
will begin setting poles and stringing
the trolley wire. Ii will be necessary to
move several poles on South Main street
which stand nearly in the center of the
track. These poles are now carrying
wires for street and house lights. As
soon as the rails can be connected with
bonds, as mentioned above, the roadbed
will be replaced and the surface OF

in condition for travel Considerable
criticism has been made of the curve at
the corner of Washington and Central
streets. Another spring the company
will remedy the condition of affairs at
that point by changing the track from
the east to the west side of Central
street.
The sidewalk in front of the D. j..
Clough house on the east side of South
Main street has been oblterated by the
extension as the track runs exactly on
the walk for a considerable distance. IL
will be necessary to build walk across
South Main street at the southern end
of Prospect Hill cemetery to accommo'
date the traffic as pedestrians from
points ON South Main street, south OF
Pine street, have used the cross-walk
at Pine street which brought them down
town on the east side of South Main
street from Pine street to the top of the
South Main street hill.

Stops a Deep Seated
Cough in a Hurry
A Family Supply Of Unequaled Cough
Remedy for 5oc-Money Re.
funded If II Fails.

Cough medicines, as a rule, contain a
large proportion of plain syrup-a good
ingredient but one that anyone can make.
A pint of graduated sugar, with ] pint
of warm water, stirred for 2 minutes,
gives you as good syrup as money can buy.
50-cent bottle of Pinex, mixed in a
pint bottle with homemade sugar syrup,
gives you a full pint of really better
cough syrup than you could buy ready
mixed for $3.50. There's a clear saving
of $500. Full directions in package.
And money couldn't buy quicker,
better remedy. Takes hold at once, gives
almost instant relief, and usually stops
the most obstinate, deep-seated cough in
"a hours. 1t stimulates the appetite, is
slightly laxative and has pleasant taste
children take it willingly. Splendid for
hoarseness, asthma, chest pains and other
throat troubles, and uneQualed for prompt
results in whooping cough.
Pinex is special and highly concen-
trated compound of imported Norway
White Pine extract, and is rich in guaia
col and other natural healing pine ele-
ments. Simply mix it as directed with
sugar syrup or strained honey, and it is
ready for use.
Used in more homes in the U. s. and
Canada than any other cough remedy.
Pinex has often been initiated, but never
successfully, for nothing else will produce
the same results. The genuine is guaran-
teed to give absolute satisfaction or money
refunded Certificate of guarantee is
wrapped in each package. Your druggist
has Pinex or will get it for you. If not,
send to The Pinex Co., Fl. Wayne, Ind.

The foregoing paragraph from the ST.

great many Vermonters They have moth

believe he is just the right man for presl-

they have no patience whatever with the

throughout the state are trying to manu-
facture in his behalf.

Perus Marsh Hapgood has issued proc
lamation anent the release from Benning
ton county Jail of one Hartwell (who
"pushed Hapgood's nose over to the Other
side of his face and put shantee over
both eyes') through the payment OF his
fine by Troy, n. Y, man whose journey
through Vermont was interrupted last
summer because of trouble with the as
saultee, the assumption being that the New
Yorker was glad enough to put up for any
one who had handed it to the one who
handed it to him. Evidently Mr.. Hap
good is of the opinion that the newspapers
that have given publicity to the circum'
stances of Hartwell's release are eneourag
ing the spirit of retaliation, which has nc
place in modern ethics. Mr.. Hapgood Is
right in his contention that the Troy man.
for the sake of satisfying a private grudge
in effect condoned an act Of violence. But
the Peruvian must not blame the news
papers because they printed stories about
it. Anything that concerns him is news II

The Journal believes that Vermont re,
publicans are loyal to President Taft and
that they will refuse to be ,mlsled by the
sensational clamor that has been raised by
the followers of that scheming, selfish poll
tician, La ollette.-Montpelier Journal
This is doubtless true as far as the ref
erence to President Taft is concerned.
There is little likelihood that Vermont will
be found anywhere but in the Taft column
at the next republican national convention.
But the chances of his getting as big a
popular vote as he did four years ago are
slim--as slim, indeed, as are his chances
of reelection.
