DISCREDITED, BUT BY ITS OWN AGENTS..

An Indianapolis news dispatch quotes D. M. Parry,
formerly president of the National Association OF Manu-
facturers saying that the lobby Investigations
at Washington seem to be attempt to dscredt and
dsorganize that association that President Gompers OF
the American Federation of Labor is close friend of
President Wilson and has probably had something to do
with initiating the investigation and that there in
dications that President Wilson and his secretary Mr.
Tumuy, read the Muha letters two weeks before the
public got any inkling of their contents.
WE'LL what Mr.. Gompers did urge the lobby investi-
cation? What if President Wilson did read the Mulhall
letters evidence these points,
the other but Mr. Gompers helped to start
the inquiry he rendered real public service; and if
President Wilson read the Mulha letters, then he simply
did his duty it, addition, he encouraged publicity Of
them and the probing to the bottom of the acts and
practices set forth in the correspondence.
Any talk of a movement to 'discredit disor-
ganize the National Association of Manufacturers silly

If anybody disposed to inaugurate it. The asso-
citation has been completely discredted by those
who managed its affairs. These men discredited the
association when they employed like Muhall and
retained his services year after They dscredted
the association when they indorsed the work that he did,
They discredted the association when they went into
various congressional districts and spent to de-
feat this candidate and to help that candidate for nomna

letters in the possession of congress. These are
facts that discredit the association. There is neither

WHY UNION MEN OBJECT TO NoN.UNIoN.

1t is often said by our critics: "Why should union
men object to work with non-union men? If man
does not choose to join surely he is only exer-
cising the liberty of the subject his comrades
have no right to object to him."
But they have every right that reason and Justice
can give for their objection. The union is making
great sacrifices in order to obtain he considers his
rights The non-union man is reaping all the advant-
ages without of the trouble union man bands
himself with his fellows against the aggressive greed of
the employers of labor, and is giving both time and
money to the he has at heart union has to
be maintained and kept working by subscriptions of
the members and each of the members gives his time
to the meetings. sometimes to extent by serving
on committees, etc. He is struggling hard, no matter
what it costs, to to himself and not only to
himself but to his fellowmen just remuneration for
their toll, and it, goaded by njusces and oppressed
with wrong he, in agreement with this combination Of
his fellow workmen, refuses to work at terms Of
fcred by his employer, he suffers starves that all
may reap the benefit
Non-unonists work quietly on, openly accepting all
advantages earned by the suffering and sefdenal of
his fellow workman without stretching hand to
help him to obtain them Unity is strength, but that
unity in which strength lies is destroyed by those who
refuse to join the union.
The efforts of organization rendered fruitless the
toll and suffering of the workmen futile by mean
and cowardice of the non-unionis All true union
men prepared to stand by their union all times
and when circumstances demand it they willing even
to quit work. often at great sacrifice to themselves and
families What must be their feeling when they see

COATED TONGUE
 MEANS LAZY LIVER
A Lazy Liver Needs a Dose of bod sons Liver Tone Guaranteed
 to Take Place of CalomeI.

When your doctor looks to see if your tongue is coated, he is trying to lind out if your liver is working prop erly. A few years ago doctors had to prescribe calomel-there was nothing else to give.
 Recently in many sections of the county Dodson's Liver Tone has prac. tically taken the place of calomel as a liver remedy. Dodson's Liver Tone is mild, pleasant tasting and harmless which makes it a fine medicine for use when your children become bill ious and constipated. But the most remarkable feature of Dodson's Liver Tone is the fact that the City Drug Store who sells it, guarantees it abso- lutely. The druggists will return your money without argument if a bottle fails to give entire satisfaction.
 Price, 50 cents. We suggest that you get bottle today and have it ready for the next member of your family whose liver goes wrong.

Locals Shut Marianna Out.

Speaking for Forrest City The Times desires to state that this town just adores base ball team it can beat ana It IS the consensus of opinion here that the Marianna team, which was gooSe-egged here yesterday by the To calls, are all perfect gentlemen-mar- tyrs, heroes, in fact. Oh, joy, and then some. Marianna lift" nobly- twice they pressed us hard when the runners of the enemy had their toes in the ground at second and third, with every muscle tense for the home dash. We admit that these were ago. n1zingly anxious moments; but a-h-h-h h and g-r.r-r-r. in the gutteral tones of Desperate Desmond, toots from the auto horns and groans from the fans twice we turned them back. crushed and scoreless. Did we say twice? yea verify; for nine consecutive innings did we keep the 'whitewaSh in action but above we were only endeavoring to lay particular stress upon the two times when our defense was seriously threatened.
 The MariannianS could not produce the hits when hits meant runs.
 Quite number of bobbles were made on both side, but errors were to be expected, because Forrest City has had very little practice and some of the best players on the team have not yet gotten limbered up, so to speak. Our boys have not yet struck their swiftest stride, but even at that, they proved too swift for Marianna. In yesterdays contest the home team was noticeably weak at the bat and the fielding at second and third was rather loose. We do not mention these things in censure or criticism, because The Times is proud of the showing our team has made-only one defeat and three straight victories to its credit, certainly looks good to muh!
 We don't want to rub it in too hard either; but in two of those aforesaid wins, the kibosh was applied to Marianna. Ouch, Roscoe, we like you, but its out of the right bottle and you'll have to take 1t,
 Prewett, who hurled for the home- lings came up strong in the pinches and introduced variety of picture puzzle slants with which the Marian nians connected indifferently. also sparsely and scatteringly You've read about pitchers winning their own games, we'll Prewett pulled that stunt yesterday. His superb fielding coupled with a timely slam in the sixth which netted two markers for ''ourn," smacked of be league stuff. Prewett also bingled again in the seventh, coring King. The game was further featured by three lightning double plays two of which were executed by Becker and Logan, who played short and first, respective ly and the third by Payne and Logan, between home plate and first, all for Forrest City.

Our base ball team went down to Marlanna on Thursday of last week. and Tor the second time since the local team was organized engaged in a match game of base ball with the Ma rlanna team, and The Times is very proud to note that Forrest City de. feated Marianna by score of 9 to 6.
 In commenting on this game, the Courier of last week reads as follows;
 Thursdays game with Forrest City should have been won by the Delano's and might have gone that way had not Bradford given down in the fifth inning and vamoosed the box. Alter that 1t was goodbye hope" When this ball club gets away from playing fellows who just want little fun, and put the best talent in the city in the game, they will win some games, When people pay to see a ball game, they want to see ball played, and the best talent in the city should be put in the contest" "
