SAFER THAN CALOMEL.
Dodson's Liver Tone at Night Will
Straighten You Out by Morn
ing. Calomei May Knock
You Out of a Days
Work.

If you are calomel user, next time
you are tempted to buy it ask your
druggist if he can absolutely guar
antee the drug not to harm you. He
won't do it because he CAN'T do it.
But here is a perfect substitute for
calomel which the druggist does guar
antee-the famous Dodson's Liver
Tone. Peoples Drug Store will refund
your money without question If you
are not thoroughly satisfied.
Go to Peoples Drug Store whom
you are acquainted with-and find
out about the great number of people
who are taking this remarkable reme-
dy and feeling better, keener, halth-
ier, and better able to enjoy life than
they ever were when taking calomel.
Why? Because calomel is poison
one that may stay in the system,
and while seeming to beneht you
temporarily, may do harm in the end.
If you haven't felt these. ill-efects
so far, it is because you are fortunate
enough to have a strong constitution.
Don't take the risk any longer.
Get a, bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone
(5Oc.) and note how easily and
naturally it corrects all bilious con-
ditions, how it clears away that sick
headache and coated tongue, how 1t
sets you right without ache or grippe.
The most wonderful thing in the
world for constipation.
All this without the slightest IN
reference with your regular habits.

WAS JUSTIFIABLE HOMICIDE.
Jury Exonerates Harry StillweH Ed
wards and son i'm Killing Negro.

Macon, Ca, July 6.-Justihable
homicide was the verdict returned by
a coroner's jury to-day which lnves-
tigated the shooting and killing of
Harrison Newton, a negro, by Harry
Stillwell Edwards, Macon's postmast-
er and author, and his son, Prentiss
Edwards. The negro was shot last
night and died in a local hospital to-
day.
Newton attacked his wife with an
axe last night on the Edwards coun-
try estate, near this city. She ran
screaming to the Edwards house, beg
eing for protection for herself and
children. The postmaster and his
son secured a shotgun and rifle re-
spectively and started for the negro's
cabin. They met Newton coming out
of the cabin, armed with shotgun.
Before he could fire Prentiss Edwards
fired his rifle five times and the post
master discharged the shotgun once.
The negro disappeared after the
shooting and did not return to his
home until early to-day.

CINCINNATI SELLING ICE.
City Is Operating Seven Plants Seiz-
ed by Health Board.

Cincinnati, July 3.-Seven nom
union ice plants, seized by order of
Mayor Henry T. Hunt, were being
operated today by the board of health
in an effort to relieve the suffering
caused by the strike of engineers,
firemen, drivers and helpers.
The ice-making machinery of the
different plants was in charge ofstrik-
ing engineers and fremen, who were
ordered to return to work by union
officials, under an agreement made
with the mayor.
The first step by the ice manufac-
turers to regain possession of their
plants was taken by the Cincinnati
Ice Company, which applied to Judge
Speigle, in the Common Pleas Court,
for an injunction to restrain the City
from trespassing further on the
property of the company" The petit
ton asked that temporary injunc-
tion be granted and that it be made
permanent.
Mayor Hunt has sent a message to
Attorney General McReynolds urging
him to order an Investigation of the
Middle States Ice Producers Ex-
change, claiming that it is combi-
nation in restraint of trade.

Punished for Contempt.

L. M. Charles was tried at o'clock
yesterday in the United States Dis
trict court for contempt of court at a
hearing before the United States COM
missioner at Union. Judge Smith
gave him month in Jail, which, by
special request, is to be served at
Spartanburg. The popularity of the
case lies in the fact that, by merely
hitting a man, he committed four dis
tinct offenses against the law.
Charles was being tried for not
having paid the special tax for ~etail-
ing liquor. A witness in the case
testified to what the defendant char
acterized as a lie. This so 'angered
the defendant that he struck the wit
ness, or "smacked" him, as he put it
when on the stand. He also cursed
another witness, and the report is
that the sheriff had to quell the de-
fendant by harsh means.
The first court to take umbrage at
this conduct was the city court of
Union. He was fined for committing
a breach of the peace. Next the coun-
ty decided that he had committed an
assault and battery, and warrant
was issued on that charge. Then the
United States government tried him
yesterday for being guilty of con-
tempt of court, and a warrant will
issue from the same source against
him on a charge of attacking or in
timidating a witness. This last is a
rather grave offence.
The defendant pleaded guilty in
yesterdays proceedings, but asked
the judge for leniency on account of
his having sick wife. The judge
said that had nothing to do with the
Charleston News and Courier.

CRIME AND RIOT AT NEWPORT.
Negro who Stabs Sailor and Kills
Boy Nearly Mobbed.

Newport, R. l., July 4.-Ten thou
sand people, men and women, wit
messed a riot on Newport Beach to-
night, when a negro, fleeing from a
sailor he had stabbed in the back,
shot and killed a 14-year-old boy.
For nearly an hour police reserves
battled desperately with the mob,
which was determined to get posses

him into the surf and holding him in
the water up to his neck, did they
succeed in retaining him.

interview Jackson changed his mind,
accepted. the aid of the pirates and
showed the utmost trust in them,
and throughout the siege of New Or
leans the followers of Lafitte showed
themselves worthy of confidence.
They were excellent gunners, and
two of Lafitte's captains, Dominique
You and a man named Beluche, were
put in charge of ships. When the
British had been driven away, Jack
son recommended that Lafitte and his
men be granted pardon for all pre-
vious misdemeanors, and the thing
was done.
The city of New Orleans even
erected statute in honor of Domin-
ique You when he died many years
later. Nobody seems to know ex-
actly what became of Jean Lafitte
and his brother. They evidently could
not bear to settle down and become
prosaic burglars; in 1916 we find
Jean in Galveston, Texas, whence he
was chased by the Spanish govern
ment in 1920. Later there came
stories of cruises in the Caribbean;
the call of the sea was too strong for
the one-time Barbarian. Today red,
black and yellow fishermen dry
shrimps where swarthy pirate folk
once staggered, gorgeous in scarlet
sashes, but you may still hear whis-
pered tales of Jean Laftte and of
iron-bound chests of gold buried un-
der the roots of the tall pampas
grass.-Kansas City Star.

THE NEW WOMAN IN OREGON.
She is Mayor, City Attorney and
Whole Police Force.

Those SCORERS VINO lnOuSnt MISS
Clara Cynthea Munson would regret
her election as mayor of this town
are a disappointed lot Miss Munson
has the distinction of being the only
woman mayor in the West, and for a
wonder, she is not much in favor of
woman suffrage.
Now that women have vote, y
she said, Il believe they should take
an active interest in political affairs
and show they are able to make good
use of the ballot. The citizens here
were dissatisfied with the administra-
ton we have been having, and some
one said, I believe Miss Munson
would make good mayor took it,
as 1 supposed it was meant, as a good
joke.
"Others took the suggestion Sc
riously. A caucus was held and my
name and one other, Mr.. Diedrich,
were placed in nomination for the
office of mayor. Ny opponent DID
not prove to be much of runner. In
any event, l got most of the vote.
A non-partisan citizens ticket was
put up, headed by myself for mayor.

meetings, and inasmuch as the coun-
cilmen who ran on the citizens tick
ct were elected we get along very
serenely. Even in little place like
Warrentown with only few hundred
people, we have our civic problems.
For example, we formerly employ
ed a city attorney and a policeman.
AS mayor, backed by the council, |
was given free hand, so disposed
of the services of both of these Off
cials.
81 am now mayor, city attorney
and chief of police. The money we
save by dispensing with the services

we are putting into improvements

in new ones. The mayor of Astoria
has been kind enough to give me free
legal advice whenever we have re-
quired it.
lone of the problems have had to
thresh out was the matter of saloon
here. The question of reissuing the
license of the saloon came. up. The
license fee is S40O a year. There are
very few women in favor of saloons
and what the saloon stands for.
There are so saloons in Astoria,
seven miles distant, and four saloons
in Hammond, three miles away.
thought the thing out carefully and
decided that as long as the govern
ment and the saloon man were in
partnership it was not fair to punish
the weak partner-the saloon man.
LAS long as you and I and the
others who constitute the government
tell the saloon man that he may pay
a certain sum of money to carry on
his business, all that we can do is to
see that he does not transgress the
laws. The real solution of the prob
lem is for the government not to be-
come the silent partner of the liquor
men.
"I spent all of my girlhood and
young womanhood in a lighthouse.
My father was thrown very much into
the society of his own family and so
discussed political questions with us
when the ordinary man would 60
down to the corner grocery and sit
on a cracker barrel or dry goods
box and discuss politics with his cron-
les. 1 rode and hunted and swan
and talked politics with my father al
most as if I were a boy. y.'-Warren-
