Competent to render the very best
service representing the best develop
ment OF this noble discovery and his
patieuts are happy and living witness
es to the merits Of Chyropractic and
OF his skill and efficiency as an ADJUST
or. One of the most remark able ex-
amples of the health giving benefits
of this new science is che case oil
Martin UlvAr. He was afflicted with
a bad case of HYPNOSIS; his lower
limbs were paralyzed, all hope of re-
covery had been given up. He was
fast going down to an untimely grave.
DR.. Ward heard OF his dlstressful con-
dition and went to his relief. He
reached forth to the sufferer beneic-
ent hands of the only science which
could administer help and snatched
him from the very gates Of death aud
brought him back to life and home
from despair to hope and happine ss.
After four adjustments the patient
was able to walk about the ROOM, in
the course of three weeks he was we'll
enough tc walk several blocks to the
Doctors Office.

Whoever says that Senat-

Whoever says that Senat-
or Crawford is not a progress
sive republican, or that he is
not standing with the lead
ing progressive Senators, is
either ignorant or malicious.
He is a thorough-going pro-
gressive, and enjoys the alb
solute confidence of the pro-
gressive republican Senators.
Not only so, but he is recog-
nized as a man of great
strength and influence. It
would be most unfortunate
for the progressive cause if
Senator Crawford should be
defeated. The people can
have no better friend that he
has been and is.
Yours very truly,
Albert B. Cummins.

The notable success which DR.. H.

various forms of disease is proving
the right of Chyropractic to be called
a science. AS a matter of interesting

DEFENDS POPULAR REMEDIES
Speaker Says Newspapers Should In
vestigate Merits of Medicines Be-
fore Barring Advertisements.

That an organized attempt has been
made to blacken the reputation of the
popular family remedies Of this coun-
| try, and to mislead the newspaper
| publishers into rejecting the adver-
Using of such medicines, was the
| charge made by Carl J. Balliett. OF
Buffalo, N. Y, at the convention Of the
Advertising Affiliation at Detroit.
MIR. Balliett is director of the Pro-
prietary Association of America, which
includes in it's membership two hun
dred firms which make the popular
prepared medicines of America.
Mr.. Balliett pointed out that it Is
the duty of the newspaper publisher
to refuse the advertising of any fake
or fraudulent medicine, just as 1t Is
his duty to refuse any fake or fraudu-
lent advertising, but it is not right to
shut down on all medical advertising
because there have been some takers,
any more than it would be right to
refuse to publish all department store
advertising because certain stores
have made a, practice Of lying about
bargain sales.
Disease and death are mysteries.
People who are perfectly we'll are
skeptical. They laugh at the time
worn patent medicine joke. just as
they laugh again and again over the
many variations Of the operation joke
THE operation was a success but
the patient died. This so-called hui
NOR has perhaps hurt the medicine
business with we'll people, but when
the hitherto healthy man feels Sc
we're pain or Illness, he Immediately
wants medicine, and will bless the
cure whether it be at the hands of
regular doctor, homeopath, an osteo-
path, a Christian Scientist or patent
medicine. There is nothing more
deadly than disease; nothing more
honorable than to cure it.
Mr.. Balliett refuted the idea sought
to be spread about that patent medi-
cines are unpopular by showing that
from 1900 to 1912 the amount of pre-
pared medicines consumed in America
increased from $100,000,000 to $780,
100000 annually. He showed that, al
though the American Medical Associ-
alton is trying as an organization to
exterminate so-called patent medi-
cines, the family doctor, individually,
is not fighting them but prescribing
them. He estimated that 400 of the
prescriptions Written by doctors today
include proprietary medicines.
The writings of DR.. Harvey W. WI
ley, he said, have also aimed to de-
stroy confidence in proprietary medi-

elected district attorney, and Edward
T. Melms sheriff.
One nOnpartisan, one democratic
and one social democratic state sena'

were successful in contests for assem-
bly, seats, while six democrats and
eight socialists were elected to the

On the ten proposed constitutional
amendments, Milwaukee county re-
jected seven and approved three. The
latter were the amendments providing
for initiative and referendum; home
rule and the recall.

from Wisconsin remains unchanged
The hopes of the republicans that they
would be able to redeem the Sixth

ly republican but are now represented
by democrats, were not realized. Both

not tnfallible is shown by cases where
his analyses were entirely wrong. Mr..
Balliett mentioned a case where, with
| all the power of the Government, he
fought a preparation as being danger.
Gus to health, and was ingloriously
walloped.
There has been spread the idea that
a clever faker can mix a few useless
ingredients and, by smart advertising,
sell tons Of 1t and win sudden wealth;
whereas, as matter of fact, the medi-
cine business is VIGOROUSLY difficult,
and, where there has been one success
at it, there have been a hundred fail
ures. Any medicine which has no
merit cannot live, because persons
who are duped into buying it once win
not buy 1t again, and the profit from
advertising medicine can only come
from repeat sales to the same, salts
fed people. Therefore, any medicine
which has been on the market for q
number Of years, and is still adver-
tised, must have merit behind it to &C.
count for its success.
In conclusion Mr. Ba1liett declared
that no newspaper is doing justice to
its readers in the matter of medical
or other advertising, unless it investi-
gates, not only the wording of the adj.
vertisement offered for publication,
but the merits of the article adver-
tised. He pointed out that the few
newspapers who have been deluded
into the policy of barring out medical
advertising have adopted this general
policy, rather than to form an inves-
tigation bureau of this kind which
could, in a constructive and useful eff
fort, investigate and decide what is
a good product and what is fraud,
in not only the medicine business, but
in every other business which adver-
tises its wares to the public.
The audience seemed to agree with
Mr. Balliett's ideas on the subject and
the chairman decided the question at
issue in his favor.

Milwaukee, Nov. 6.-Returns receiv-
ed from the state up to this morning
show the vote on United States sena-
tor to be: Husting, democrat, III, 1888;
McGOVern, republican, 1854. This
gives Husting lead of 1897, with 33S
precincts silent.
Claims that their candidate will be
elected on final returns are made by
both republicans and democrats. The
claim for McGovern's election is based
upon the fact that seven counties miss
ing gave the governor majorities two
years ago, and his supporters are con-
fident that a sufficient vote has been
accorded him in these precincts to
overcome Hastings present lead.
These counties are Vernon, Taylor,
Sawyer, st. Croix, Pierce, Polk and
KeWaunee, in which McGovern scored
a majority of 1902 votes when he ran
against Judge John c. Karel in his
fight for governor. McGovern's ma
Jorltles in those counties at that time
were: Vernon, 1870 Taylor, 33S;
Sawyer, Ill; st. Croix, 1872; Pierce,
1901; Polk, 1880 Karel carried but
one of the seven counties. That was
Kewaunee, where his majority totaled
220 votes.
There are 338 precincts of the state
to be heard from, of which 1876 are in
the missing counties. The remaining
l42 are evenly divided among the 9TH
