Starvation Will Not

But a Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet Will
Enable You to Eat Your Meals
Without Suffering After
Doing So,

Every person knows that to live in
healthy. happy manner We must eat
Diet, starvation, predigested food, &c, are
not the correct methods of eliminating
digestion disorders.
Many dyspeptics know that they must
eat, and so they go to their meals in a
half-hearted manner. When they see
food before them they are made miser-
able. Their judgments tell them to eat.
but their stomachs revolt at the idea and
SO whatever food they consume does them
more harm than good.

Union Printers Back
William s. Weir for
County Commission

At a meeting of more than 100
union printers, held in Labor Temple
Sunday afternoon, its avowed pur-
pose being to aid in the campaign OF
William S. Weir for County Commits
sioner, ]. L. Rodier was selected as
chairman ana Earle f. Griggs secre-
tary
The meeting was addressed briefly
by Mr.. Weir, who outlined his plan OF
campaign and his principles. He
stated that one Of the urgent matters
now before the Board OF County Com
missioners was the treatment of the
convicts, and that he believed Sc
lection of tho right kind Of guards,
with some idea of penal philosophy,
would do much toward eliminating
brutality; that the guard who be-
lieved his only duty was to carry q
gun and menace tho convicts was a
menace to the whole community, but
that the guard who felt that he was g.
part Of the system which was meant
to cure crime was the right kind of
guard to put over the unfortunates.
Mr.. Weir was pledged the hearty sup
port Of the printers, and Chairman
Rodier announced that program OF
campaign would be undertaken by the
club at an early date
The club will work in entire sym
pathy with the newly organized La
Dor Legislative League, but will de-
vote its main cfforts-to the election OF
Mr.. Weir.

Mr.. Finn presided, and opened the

"All you have left me to do" he
said 'is to provide the speakers. 1t

The contemplated shake-up can not

BIC THIEVES IN
FINANCE ARE
FLAYED
BY 9. c. FORBES.

Two millionaire "financiers," promi-
nent in wrecking the once great Rock
Island Railroad system. are expected
to receive the cold shoulder from
Morgan and certain other powerful
bankers.
House cleaning in high finance is
what the movement means. 1t sig
nifies the triumph of character over
chicanery, of decency over duplicity.
The gentry who dominated the
Rock Island, after looting it, are out
of place in modern finance. They no
longer At. They do not harmonic
with reform. They breathe differ
ent atmosphere. Their methods of
milking the public of millions are not
now in favor. Neg DO their habits
quite commend them to the latter
day school of bankers. Their names
are not conducive to confidence.
In the highest financial circles as
constituent is privately expressed that
J. P. Morgan e. Co. have not dropped
at least one of the pair before now.
His doings have been much discussed
of late-both at Washington and
here The rupture, it is now said,
will not be long delayed.
Should the Rock Island scandal be
laid bare to the very bones-as IL
ought TO be-the effect would be dis
tinctly salutary. Two or three gen
tlemen who scooped in millions with
out honestly working for them would
find themselves in an extremely I'M
comfortable position. If they got
what the public would doubtless de-
mand they would have little oppor-
tunity for some years to perpetrate
any similar film hamming unless
they succeeded in bribing warders.
The wrecking Of Rock Island was
more brazen than the wrecking of
either the New Haven or the Frisco
systems. AS in all such cases, the
thteving insiders line their own pock-
cts by picking the pockets of the pub
lie. The Rock Island was once a
staunch, profitable property abund-
antly able to pay regular dividends.
There was no excuse, save the Illicit
greed of the tin plate" crowd, for
robbing and bankrupting it.
If the kind of "financiers" who have
wrecked the Rock Island and the
Frisco are allowed to go free, allow
ed to retain their ill-gotten millions,
allowed to mingle financially and So
cially with the best in the land, then
no scoundrel need hesitate to hatch
up some gigantic swindle to extract
a fortune from the pockets of I'M
suspecting investors. Only the
swindle must be on q grand scale,
