The appointment of D. M. Murphy as
postmaster of Rockland was distasteful
to the Rockland Opinion and in recent
issue it held Congressman McGillicuddy
responsible for it and said few things
the reverse of complimentary to the
Representative from the Sd district. So
far as known Mr.. McGillicuddy has made
no reply to the accusations. Last week,
however, the Opinion announced that in
its "ouest to learn by what means, inf1u-
ence or accident Mr.. D. M. Murphy had
become postmaster of Rockland'' it had
discovered that Mr.. McGillicuddy was
guiltless in the matter, and he was given
clean bill Of health, and that Obadiah
Gardner is the goat. After having
months before endorsed Mr.. L.veioy for
the position in letter to the post office
department Mr.. Gardner is accused OF
throwing Lovejoy overheard and endors-
ing Murphy, whose appointment soon
followed. An explanation from Mr..
Gardner is row called for by the Opinion.
The New York Tribune has bolted
the nomination of Boies Penrose by the
Republicans of Pennsylvania, and the
Boston Herald says:
How curious it seems for the New
York Tribune, after forty years Of un-
disturbed regularity, to come out with
such warmth against the one man in the
Republican party whom Col. Roosevelt
most dislikes. Is it possible that the
Tribune is to become the national organ
of the Progressive party?
Not so surprising after all. The Trib-
une has apparently been falling behind
in the newspaper race in New York city,
with conditions the same as with that
once staunch and true Republican news
paper the Boston Journal when it turned
its back on its New England constituency,
hoping to regain its fortunes as the only
Progressive daily in Boston. That hope
proved fallacious and it is now seeking
to rehabilitate itself as newspaper
without a party. If newspaper was
an individual, and could control its own
destiny, there are cases in which death
might be preferable to the abandonment
OF the principles by which it had gained
the confidence Of its readers.

We Have Faith in
This Stomach Remedy.

A woman customer said to US
the other day, Say, you ought
to tell everyone in town about
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets. l
would myself if l could" That
set us to thinking. So many
people have used them and have
so enthusiastically sounded their
praises both to us and their
friends, that we had an idea you
all knew about them. But, IN
the chance that some of you who
suffer from indigestion, heart
burn, dyspepsia, or some other
stomach complaint, don't know
about them-we are writing this.
They contain Bismuth and
Pepsin, two of the greatest di-.
gestive aids known to medical
science. They soothe and COM
fort the stomach, promote the
secretion of gastric juice, help to
quickly digest the food and con-
vert it into rich, red blood, and
improve the action of the bowels.
We believe them to be the best
remedy made for indigestion and
dyspepsia. We certainly wouldn't
offer them to you entirely at our
risk unless we felt sure they
would do you a lot of good. If
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets do not
relieve your indigestion, check
the heartburn, and make it pos
sible for you to eat what you like
whenever you like, come back
and get your money.
Sold only at the more than
1000 Rexall Stores, and in this
town only at our store. Three
sizes, sc, SOC, and S1.00.-M. E.

problem. There is more or less
feeding value, even in winter
wheat straw; but its chief value
is as bedding, where it provides
comfort for the animal, and acts
as an absorbent of the liquid ma
nure. In fact, the plentiful use
of bedding is about the only way
at present that the liquid manure
can be saved and applied to the
land. There is tremendous waste
going on from the lack of use of
an absorbent.
Where the live stock business
is not combined with grain farm
ing, it is difficult to see what
benefit accrues to the landlord or
tenant from forbidding the ten
ant to sell his share of the straw.
Straw is of no use to the land
until it is applied. If allowed to
stand in the stack until it rots
down, it is an unsightly thing.
1t is not healthy for the tenants
hogs to lie around a straw stack,
and worse for sheep, because of
the straw getting in the wool
and injuriug its quality.
The way to solve this problem
is for farmers to keep enough
live stock to enable them to make
full use of the straw either as
feed or bedding. We will come
to this by and by.-Wallaces'
Farmer.

Selling the Straw.
II is a Bad Practice and Should
be Stopped-Feed it on the Farm

What to do with the straw is
something of a problem on farms
given over largely to the grow
ing of small grain. The old
fashioned way in a new country
was to burn it. Our readers west
Of the Mississippi can very easily
remember the time when the
evening sky in the fall was
lighted up by the fire from burn.
ing straw stacks. Men did not
take the trouble to stack their
straw. They simply dragged it
away from the machine to get it
out of the way, and then set fire
to it. This practice still obtains
in some parts of Kansas. 1t is of
course all wrong, but no worse
nor quite as bad as the practice
of baling straw and selling it off
the farm. Straw baled and
hauled to town usually about
pays, over and above the cost of
baling, for the time of man and
team that it takes to deliver it.
The farm, of course, is the loser.
Many farmers in the grain grow
ing section are beginning to re-
alize this, and are putting a
clause in their leases dividing
the straw between the landlord
and the tenant, and forbidding
the tenant to sell it off the farm.
Where live stock farming is
combined with grain growing,
especially where it is on a share
of the stock plan, there is no

our readers to look we'll to this
