 Discusses Issues

Canobie Lake, N H, August 31.- Champ Clark told democrats of Mas sachusetts at their outing here today that he believed now and would al- ways believe that he was entitled to the democratic nomination for Presi- dent this year.
 But under the thirds rule Will son and Marshall were nominated, and l never bo1ted a democratic ticket ana never will" he added.

 The tariff, high cost of living, direct election of United States senators and kindred subjects were discussed at length by Speaker Clark.
 After praising the work of the pres ent House of Representatives, he said that the cost of living had gone up 60 per cent in the last 15 years while wages had increased only 21 per cent and, he added, there is no hope of remedial legislation as long as the three branches of the government are not of the same political faith. l nope to see the election of a democratic House, a democratic Senate and dem ocratic President.
 "The tariff ought to be reduced to revenue or competitive basis and be removed entirely on the most necessary articles of food, while the trusts should he abolished utterly. There are laws enough to abolish the trusts If they were honestly, conscientiously, vigor- ously and periodically enforced, which they are not"

Dr. Hartman Answers Questions
 About The Revised Pe-ru-na

All this I knew before I changed the formula of Pe-ru-na, which l did six years ago, but did not realize the diff culty of overcoming the peoples mo- tions on this subject
 l made a change in the formula of Pe-ru-na. Quite a radical change. A change that altered the color and the taste and somewhat the medicinal eff feet of Pe-ru-na. l did this believing it was the best thing to do under the circumstances.
 Immediately the change appeared, the people began to complain of Pe- ru-na. They generally thought the druggist was to blame, that their bot tie of Pe-ru-na had been tempered with. This made bad feelings between the users of Pe-ru-na and the drug gists. The druggists In some cases be- came irritated and angered and made complaint to the wholesalers and man ufacturers. Thus the trade was tenn porarily In an uproar.
 After a year of explanation the trade quieted down and the new Pe-ru-na took It's place in the drug stores as a popular household remedy. And yet 1t has not attained the popularity that the other Pe-ru-na had. Changing the formula of Pe-ru-na was equivalent to introducing a new medicine into the drug trade. an extremely difficult thing to do now-a days.
 Pe-ru-na as IL IS maue tOudy IS a very excellent remedy for catarrh and general catarrhal ailments It is for sale in all drug stores and has slight laxative effect. very much needed in these days It seemed to me that it was in many ways better remedy than before. Vet In spite of all ex- plana tions there Is a considerable de- nland for the old Pe-runa as 1t used to be made.
 I have authorized the formation of a company to manufacture 1t. under the trade name of 1<a-tar-no. The Ka- tar no Go. Is located in Colum bus. Ohio, and stands ready to supply the trade with the old time formula of Pe-ru-na under the name of Ka-tar-no.
 Send for free booklet. Address Ka- tar-no Co, Columbus. Ohio.

BABY'S CRY IS
 NOT MUSIC, NO

Washington, August s1.-''A baby cry is not music. according to decision an- nounced today at the treasury depart ment.

BLOOD STAINS REVEALED BY TEST.
The testimony of Dr. L. M. Munson
of Spokane relative to serum tests for
blood on various articles handed to
him for analysis by County Coroner
Hiett and Sheriff Gardiner was the
striking feature of the trial Saturday.
DR.. Munson testified that he had ap-
piled the serum test to clipping from
the hem Of trousers purported to have
been worn by Frank Broadwell on
September %, the day Of the murder, a
piece of cloth from a pair of overalls,
blood eliot found in the boat, a stain
found on a log between the scene Of
the crime and the river and a stain
ON a piece of sail from the canoe that
has figured so prominently in the case.
The tests, he said, had positively
shown the presence of human blood on
the trousers, as did also the clot taken
from the bottom of the canoe. The
other articles did not.
DIR. Munson was subjected to severe
cross-examination, a textbook on bac-
teriology being used by attorneys for
the defense as foundation for interro-
cations. In response to the inquiry
whether the blood discovered on the
exhibits might have been other than
human, DR.. Munson said:
"The blood of no other animal in
North America would have answered to
the test.''
DIR. W. E. Ralston, of Pullman, in
strnctor in physiology and bacteriology
at Washington State college, testified
that he was familiar with the serum
test for human blood and has been
making the tests and teaching it for
eight years past. He gave a clear de-
scription of the workings of the serum
test and added: 81 am of the opinion
that it is positive test for human
blood
The cross examination of C. R. Brott
ferryman at Usk, failed to discredit
his statements of Friday afternoon. He
related incidents of finding the BODY
of Mathews and of following tracks
from the river bank where the canoe
landed into the woods near where the
body was found. Guy Gordon was with
him in the search.
E. Mcbride, dry goods buyer for the
Palace department store, was placed on
the stand to testify whether the sail
of the canoe used by Broadwell and
McRae had ever been immersed in
water, the question at issue beino
whether the defendants had cot their
clothes wet on the day of the murder
by the capsizing of the canoe. The
state endeavors to show that the canoe
could not have capsized without wettino
the sail. Mr.. Mcbride testified that
the sail had been damp, but that the
cords which hold the sail to its stavs
had never been wet
"a INDIANS TESTIFY.
Two Indians testified late Saturday
afternoon. Jim Hayes, Spokane Indian
from Wellpinit, was visiting the Indian
village near Cusick and was at Usk
September %. Hayes said he saw
Frank Broadwell and a companion com
ing from the river bank late in the
afternoon. Broadwell's companion, he
said, carried a rifle.
Suisap, an aged Indian from the vii
iage across the river, gave the same
testimony. Neither speaks English,
