LOS ANGELES, Dec. H.
Uncle Sam has begun to investi-
gate the dynamite business, which
grew out of the Mcnamara cases.
All the evidence which was Sc
cured against the McNamaras by
the county has been turned over
the little black book" which con-
tanned the names of the 600 wit
nesses who were to be called in
the Mcnamara trial.
Uncle Sam is trying to find out
who broke the laws by toting dy-
Mantle around the country for the
sixty or more explosions which, it
is charged, Ortie McManigal and
j. b. Mcnamara perpetrated.
Some of the Officials who are
conducting the examination hope
to prove that union labor Is knee
deep in wholesale dynamiting
plot.
One official who has this hope
is Oscar Lawler, who has been APP
pointed a special prosecutor by At
toiney General Wickersham, to
lay the evidence before the federal
grand jury here.
The country will remember
Lawler as the best friend of for
mer Secretary of the Interior Bal
linger, during the days when Bal
linger tried to give Alaska away
to Morgan and Guggenheim.
You may be sure that if Law
Ter gets chance he will have no
mercy on union labor.

WOMAN'S STOMACH
1t Causes Much Misery if Not
Kept in Condition.

Many women who would not tolerate
anything but a most scrupulousiy clean
kitchen, continue day in and day out
to suffer from an unclean stomach,
where food fnments, turns sour and
becomes putrid.
1t is just as easy for a woman to
keep her stomach clean as to keep her
kitchen clean; in fact, it is much easier,
and does not require hours of toll.
One or two Mi-o-na stomach tablets
tablets after each meal will in a short
time thoroughly clean and renovate the
most distressed stomach. They will
do more: they will put strength and
energy into the walls of the stomach,
and cause the juices of digestion to
flow freely, so that all food will
promptly digest.
Woman, keep your stomach clean
and free from fermenting food, anC
you will find that other ailments, such
as nausea, biliousness, sick headache,
nervousness, sleeplessness, constipa,
ton and ~palpitation of the heart will
disappear.
Hughes, and druggists everywhere
sell Mi-o-na stomach tablets, for only
Soc a large box. They are guaranteed
to cure indigestion or any stomach
trouble, OF money back. They stoy
belching of gas. and after-dinner dis
tress in five minutes. Give them
trial; they won't disappoint you. On,

find no better field for work today than
is offered here in the rescue of this
people from the ravages of consump-

a quarter of a century. will nigh ex-

avoided as pestilential in the highest
degree.
There is not an eleemosynary institu-
ton in u state to which these people
can 60 for treatment, or in which they
can go to die in peace without endan-
gering others.
l believe the ultimate analysis for the
problem will be in permitting each
county to afford a refuge for its own
consumptive poor, just as we are now
caring for our other poor, but in sep
arate institutions especially designed
for this purpose.
1t is high time for Mississippi to give
heed to this great question of, VIVA,

the rapid spread of consumption among

cision averse to State Revenue Agent Writ Adams and in favor of
the Lamb Fish Lumber Co. of Char eston, wherein the revenue
agent was seeking to collect taxes in the name of the town of
Charleston from the lumber company. 1t seems that the town of
Charleston made some sort of an agreement with the Jamb-Fish
Lumber Company before it came to Charleston, that it was to be
exempt for a certain time from taxes. 1t is expected that the rev.
enue agent will appeal.
