GOOD NEWS.
Every Sufferer from Catarrh, Coughs,
Colds and Sore Throat Should
Read II.

ke10 lie
SO many hundreds of catarrh victims
who have taken the HYOMEI treat.
ment, have written us letters thanking
us for publishing our method OF taking
the HYOMEI vapor treatment In con-
nection with the inhaler that we gladly
publish 1t again.
The vapor treatment Is especially
recommended in stubborn cases OF
chronic catarrh of long standing, but
remember that the inhaler should be
used daily as usual.
This Is the simple vapor treatment
and only takes five minutes OF your time
before going to bed. Pour teaspoon
full of HYOMEI into q bowl of boiling
water, cover head and bowl with towel
and breathe for several minutes the
vapor that arises.
You will be surprised at the result OF
this treatment; it makes the head feel
fine and clear; you will sleep better,
and that stuffed up feeling In the head
will gradually disappear.
This same method will break up tho
worst cold in the head or chest In one
night.
A bottle of HYOMEI costs so cents at
Chas. q. Howard Co. who guarantees it.
II you want the complete outfit, which
includes the little hard rubber pocket
inhaler, the price is Sl.0O.
No stomach dosing; just breathe
HYOMEI and cure catarrh and all dis
eases of the breathing organs.

Bartlett Gets the Decision.
JUDGE SAVAGE FINDS HIM ELECTED
SHERIFF By THREE VOTES.

On Wednesday afternoon a decision
was received by Clerk of Courts Whit
man from Judge Savage in the equity
suit brought BY j. Melvin Bartlett Of
Stoneham, the Republican candidate for
sheriff, against Bertrand G. McIntire Of
Waterford, the Democratic candidate.
Judge Savage finds that the number OF
ballots which should have been counted
for Bartlett was 5000, and the number
which should have been counted for
McIntire was 1857, thus giving Bartlett
q plurality of 8, and he Is therefore de-
clsred elected.
The decision of Judge Savage is Of
considerable length, SO long as to pre-
vent publishing 1t In full, as the Demo
crat would be glad to do. Judge Savage
states that after returning from Paris to
Auburn he again examined carefully all
the ballots In the case. He did not on
this examination reject any which he
had before decided to count, but he did
decide to count eight Of the ballots
which had before been placed among
those regarded as defective. Of these
eight, three were for Bartlett and FIVE
for McIntire. This reduced the number
of defective ballots from 1873 to 12S, and
divides the 722 ballots which are in the
case as follows:
Counted for Bartlett e57
Counted for McIntire.
Ballots for Bartlett found defective. 81
Ballots for McIntire found defective. "a
a.
This makes the result in the county
show as follows:
FOR BARTLETT.
Admitted as per commissioners' reports. $500 03
Counted from disputed ballots .............. 257
1850
FOR MCINTYRE.
Admitted as per commissioners reports. 49,. $3.50
Counted from disputed ballots ............ 337
as57
Judge Savage gives the history of the
case In full, and at some length lays
down the general principles of law by
which he was guided in deciding on the
validity of the ballots. The decision
shows the reason for rejecting each one
of the ballots thrown out, and tables are
appended which give detailed sum-
mary of all the facts in relation to all the
ballots cast in the county.
1t is noted by Judge Savage that some
of the questions brought up in this case
have never been ruled upon by our
courts, and he has been aided in his de-
cisions by the decisions of courts in
other states. In some instances in this
case he expresses himself as having act
ed with some hesitation in applying the
principles of law.
The case will be appealed, and the law
court will decide the questions involved
in it. This will be a matter of some
weeks or months, probably. Meanwhile
Mr.. McIntire will continue as sheriff,
and Mr.. Cole will for the present con-
tinue as jailer.

Two Suspicious Fires at Rumford,

The peculiar condition Of two fires at
the same time has caused an investiga.
ton at Rumford. The fires broke out
Monday evening of last week, the first at
about Z O'Clock, in the planning mill OF
Eugene Woods. So much Roadway had
been gained by the flames when dis
covered, aud so inflsmmable was the
building and its contents, that the loss
was practically total. There was an in
surance of $500 on the building and
500 on stock.
Before that fire was out another was
discovered in the grist mill of A. S.
Burgess, at some distance from the
Woods mill. This fire had not gained
much of start, and 1t was extinguished
without extensive damage except to the
stock. 1t seems evident that both bres
were set, and an investigation is In
progress.

GRACEFUL TRIBUTE TO

While standing on street corner

that the young girls-new and ardent

York, how wished I might have op.
portunity to tell them something Of

STATE FEDERATION .......
OF LABOR IS UPHELD

From the st. Paul Dispatch: ..$.
The executive committee of the
State Federation of Labor calls upon
the McNamaras, in case there are
others implicated with them either
higher up or lower down. to det
the truth be known and purge the
labor movement Of its enemies within
as well as without. ts@s u
This is to the point. It's one thing
for the labV organizations to con-
denim the McNamaras after they have
confessed; 1t is q more important
thing for them to insist on bringing
out all the facts in order that all
who have been implicate In these
confessed outrages shall be exposed
and the cause Of labor be relieved Of
the suspicion which lies against some
Of Its leading representatives, thus
irflicting great harm upon the entire
organization. 5sa=
SO far as we have observed. this is
the first formal demand for such In
formation from any source, and the
executive committee OF the Minnesota
federation are to be commended for
the attitude which they have taken.
For, no matter what may be their
onfidence in labor leaders whom they
may name and defend, they cannot
combat s,lccessf,i lilly the SE prevalent
sidoa that the Men amaras were not

it has been betrayed by it's leaders
and local unions have not hesitated
to call on the courts to give the Nc.
Namaras the full penalty of the law.
Murder and property destruction are
not looked upon with favor by the
real friends of labor.
Little Falls Herald: The admission
OF guilt by the McNamaras startled the
country. No doubt most people sym
pathized with them and felt that they
were not guilty. It is possible that
the men were fanatics, and believed
that they were participants in a class
war in which there was no quarter to
be shown. They were wrong, hide
ously wrong. Crime cannot help any
cause, but can injure the best of
causes. Organized labor cannot be
held responsible for the deeds of the
McNamaras. Organized labor does
does not advocate crime, nor condone
it. It believed the McNamaras should
have a fair trial, and contributed
funds to aid. That it's confidence and
generosity were abused does not alter
the case. The McNamaras deserve
punishment and will receive it. But
no stigma rests on organized labor.

Gompers could only give bread and
cheese to her fellow workers, who
sat far into the night dreaming of
the great things we hoped to see come
to pass through our united efforts.
Nothing can better illustrate what I
recall than the following story:
There had been a cigar makers
strike in New York city, and Samuel
Gompers was the leader. If we count
the actual results gained, that strike
was defeat, but, after all, it is only
out of such struggles that is born the
spirit which makes for victory.
Among the immediate results Sam
uel Gompers was blacklisted. He
could get no work. There was no food
in the home. Their one little girl
was very i'll, and Mrs. Gompers was
shortly expecting another child. On
one such afternoon representative of
the firm called on Mrs. Gompers and
offered her $50 a week for three
months if she would persuade her
husband to give up the union. White
with indignation, Mrs. Gompers
showed the man the door.
A little later, Samuel Gompers re-
or another days effort to get a. job.
One of his fellow workers had told
him of the visit of the firms repre-
sentative to his wife, and turning to
her he asked:
well, what did you tell him.
Wounded by what seemed such q
futile question when to her there could
be but one answer, Mrs. Gompers
fired up:
What do you suppose I said to
him, with one child dying and an
other coming? OF course, I took the
money!"
Stunned, as if by a blow, Samuel
Gompers fell in a chair whereupon
his wife, running up to him exclaimed:
God God, Sam, how could you ask
such a question: Don't you know
