ROOSEVELT DAY IN MINNESOTA
FORMER PRESIDENT WHIRLS
THROUGH STATE.
Appears Before People in Campaign
for Third Term Nomination in
Three Speeches.

Minneapolis. = Honorable Theodore
Roosevelt was the guest of Minnesota
for a day. The reception was cordial
and hearty. The colonel spent day
of extreme activity, but when he fin
ished it in Minneapolis, before leaving
for Chicago, he insisted he was still
feeling "bully."
Before an audience which packed
the Minneapolis auditorium, he ex-
planned his attitude on the recall of
judicial decisions and presidential pri-
mary, discussed the tariff at Albert
Lea, and in st. Paul discussed coun-
try life and the presidential primary
During his trip through Minnesota,
the colonel was greeted by crowds
which thronged every station. This
was true at Albert Lea, at Owatonna
and ST. Paul and Minneapolis.
Upon his arrival in ST. Paul he was
escorted to the Merchants hotel,
where he conferred with advisers and
met the governor. Later he was taken
to the Auditorium, where an immense
crowd greeted him.
His most significant speech was de.
livered in Minneapolis, where he
crammed a discussion of the new is
sue of the recall of judicial decisions
into the last Is minutes of his speech.
The first part of his speech was de-
voted to a general discussion of civic
virtue, although he took advantage of
the opportunity to say at the opening
of his remarks that he hoped the peo.
pie would see to it that their repre-
sentatives gave them a presidential
preference primary.
This was followed by discussion
of what he meant by popular rule ard
referred to the president of the United
States, although not by name, saying
that the president was afraid of popu.
lar rule, "rule by the mob" and ex-
tending his hand towards the audi.
ence, he asked, "How do you like to
be called mob?"
"You have only ten minutes" Mr.
Purdy told him at the last of his ad-
dress, and the colonel mediately
took up the discussion of the recall
of judicial decisions.
He expressly stated that he was not
referring to the initiative, the refer
endum and the recall of judges, but
merely to the recall of judicial de-
cisions. In less connected way, it
was reproduction of the speech
which he had delivered a few days
ago, on the same subject

"ECZEMA ITCHED so BADLY
ICOULDN'T STAND IT."

'I suffered with eczema on my neck
for about six months, beginning by lit
tie pimples breaking out. I kept
scratching till the blood came. It kept
getting worse, I couldn't sleep nights
any more. 1t kept itching for about
month, then l went to a doctor and
got some liquid to take. 1t seemed
as if l was going to get better. The
itching stopped for about three days,
but when it started again, was even
worse than before. The eczema itched
so badly couldn't stand it any more.
81 went to doctor and he gave me
some medicine, but didn't do any good.
We have been having Cuticura Rem
edies in the house, SO decided to try
Soap, so got me a box Of Cuticura
Ointment, and washed off the affected
part with Cuticura Soap three times q
day, and then put the Cuticura Oint-
ment on. The first day put it on, 1t
relieved me Of itching so could sleep
all that night. 1t took about week,
then could see the scab come off. I
kept the treatment up for three weeks,
and my eczema was cured.
"My brother got his face burned
with gun-powder, and he used Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. The people all
thought he would have scars. but you
can't see that he ever had his face
burned. 1t was simply awful to look
al before the Cuticura Remedies
(Soap and Ointment) cured it."

Cuticura Soap and Ointment are sold

''The cause of more than half the
family scraps that are scrapped to q

some one absolutely antagonistic to
all the other members of the family,
and then, putting this person on a
pedestal, demands that all shall do her

often whole family will yield many
points, and gradually the 'inlaw' be-
comes more and more insistent, and
so things drift along, always the one
side giving in, until some straw, some
trifle, will prove the drop too much,
and after that the fracas. With the
air cleared, beginning can be made

When to Call the Doctor.

When to summon the doctor is Q
point which has probably puzzled most
people at one time or another, but in
the case of throat and intestinal
troubles there should be no uncertain
ty, says medical authority. The doc
tor should be summoned at once, for
the sort throat may be diphtheria, and
the intestinal symptoms may mean
peritonitis, appendicitis or any one Of
a dozen complaints Of serious char
acter. Valuable time and the golden
opportunity may be wasted by wait
ing for symptoms that are severe
enough to justify calling the doctor.

5ADING DEFEATS SEIDEL FOR
MAYOR BY ABOUT $4,000
MAJORITY.
SOCIALISTS SAVE SEVEN.
Defeat Partly Due to High Taxes and
Alleged Extravagance-
Minor Election
Returns

Milwaukee, Wis. - DIR. G. A. Ba-
ding, the non-partisan candidate for
mayor, defeated Mayor Emil Seidel,
the socialist incumbent, by a total of
43,177 to 10000. Of the 33 aldermen
elected 26 were non-partisan and Z
were socialists.
Among supposed causes for the de-
feat of the socialist administration
were high taxes, charges OF extrava-
gance End allegations that several
leading officials had made blunders in
the administration of their offices
Non-partisan leaders also charged that
Mayor Seidel had created numerous
positions for socialists, some of whom
were brought to Milwaukee from
other states.
Says City Stands Redeemed.
DR.. Bading, the mayor-elect, when
asked for a statement said:
Once more Milwaukee stands in the
eyes of the world redeemed as an
American city, believing in the Ameri-
can constitution and the American
government.
"We have thrown off the disgrace
under which we have suffered for the
last two years and have made it ap-
parent to the world that Milwaukee
people are loyal Americans and not
socialists or anarchists"
Congressman Victor Berger said:
However disappointing the result
of the election may be, l consider the
vote piled up by the socialists for
their candidates a victory for the par
ty. | am proud of the fact that there
are more socialists in Milwaukee to-
night than in any other city in the
United States, and predict that two
years from today the number will
have doubled"
Alderman E. T. Helms, a socialist
leader, said defeat was due to lack of
German socialist newspaper.
For as result of the non-partisan vic
tory in the city of Milwaukee, the state
legislature at special session soon
to be convened is expected to pass a
distinctly non-partisan city election
statute. The socialists defeated such
measure at the last session of the
legislature, but the rout has prac-
tically killed the socialist strength in
the state general assembly.
The widespread interest in the fight
to unseat the socialist administration
was indicated by the heavy total vote
of nearly $4,000. The highest previ-
Gus total vote cast in a municipal elec-
tion was 59.4S4, at the time Mayor
sSeidel was elected, two years ago.
La Toilette Defeats Taft.
Although far from complete, re-
turns from nearly all of the seventy
one counties in the state show that
United States Senator Robert M. La
Toilette defeated President Taft on
the republican ticket and Woodrow
Wilson won from Speaker Champ
Clark in the state presidential pref
erence primary.
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt's name
did not figure 20 any extent in the
presidential preference primary, as his
supporters did not have his name
printed on the ballot. Although Col
onel Roosevelt's name was written on
the ballots by some voters, returns
from majority of counties show no
considerable vote for him.

LOOK AFTER
YOUR HEALTH
IF Your System Is Kept Toned Up You
Will Escape Many Diseases That
Find Easy Victims Among
Pale PEOPLE.

Enough disease germs enter the av-
erage human body every day to cause
death if the healthful organism did not
combat these germs and render them
harmless.
Let the human system become run
down, or debilitated, and this power OF
resistance to disease is weakened.
Soon the disease germs get the upper
hand, an acute sickness follows or the
patient becomes chronic invalid.
1t is in the blood that the battle to
maintain the health is fought. Keep
the blood toned up, the bowels open
and observe ordinary care as regards
food and rest and you will avoid much
sickness.
Debility is not a recognized disease
but is condition in which the suffer

in people who have to work hard, ara
confined indoors, eat improper food or
have worries and grief.
The case of Mrs. NJ. V. McCaslin, OF
No. 2O2 South 9th Street, Lincoln,
Neb., shows the value of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills as a tonic for all rundown
conditions of health. She says:
Il gave DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People trial for general debility
from which l had been suffering about
three years. l was thoroughly tired
and worn out and had no ambition for
anything. / became very weak and
