The readers of this paper viii be pleased to
learn that there is at least one dreaded dis
ease that science has been able to cure in all
its stages. and that is Catarrh. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon
the blood and mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation of the
disease and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and assisting
nature in doing its work. The proprietors

that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for list OF

is good citizen, an honest man-who
will never set the world afire-and we
have as much respect for him as for
any man in the progressive party.
But how will he defeat Peters?
In the spring of 1913 Mr.. Thompson
was in high favor in the progressive
party. He was the biggest and clean
est man in his party in Maine. He
was candidate for mayor OF Augusta.
He had all the glamour of the Roose-
Welt favor of the previous November.
There had been no elections since to
dampen the progressive ardor, to re-
flute any extravagant claims they
might make, or TO counterfeit their
professions of angelic perfection. Not
a word could be said against the pro-
gressive candidate by partisan oppo-
nents. Only four months had elapsed
since the Roosevelt vote. Thompson
was to be elected overwhelmingly.
What was the result? Well, he re-
ceived about three eighths of the
Roosevelt vote of four months before.
The progressives lost Ave eighths of
the Roosevelt vote and the republi-
cans gained more than 100 per cent

Farmers Club Offer.
ELLSWORTH, April q

ELLSWORTH, April p, 1914.
To the Editor of The american:
The North Ellsworth Farmers club has
accepted the generous offer OF Charles P.
DeLaittre, of Aitkin, Mimi, who offers
through our society to the girls and boys
of Ellsworth, between the ages of twelve
and seventeen years, who will grow the
most corn on one-fourth acre, three cash
prizes, viz: $40 to first; g to second and
81 to third. The conditions of the contest
are:
Each girl or boy must notify the secre-
tary of the North Ellsworth Farmers club
that she or he is to plant the one fourth
acre of corn.
They must help pillow the land, they
must plant or help plant the seed, they
must help cultivate the crop, they must
exhibit a sample at the North Ellsworth
fair next September, they must write an
essay on how they grew the corn, and file
it with the clubs secretary by September.
They must notify the Farmers club sec
rotary one week before the crop is to be
harvested, so that the club can delegate
some person to measure the crop as it is
harvested.
The contestants may plant dent corn or
flint corn.
Mr.. DeLaittre has sent to the secretary
of the Farmers club dent corn that the
contestants may have to plant free. Mr..
DeLaittre writes that this corn was bred
on the Minnesota state farm near St.
Paul; that it will mature as far north as
the Canadian boundary line, and yield 70
to 100 bushels to the acre.

New York, June 1S.-With the three
Americas cup defense yachts, Resolute,
Vanitie and Defiance, engaged In al
most daily test races and Sir Inomas
Lipton's challenger Shamrock Nv pre-
pairing to sail for America, interest IN
the coming international races. for the
famous yacht trophy Is increasing rap
idly. h status and racing ABILITY or
the three America sloops are fairly
we'll established but the full possibili-
ties of the Nicholson seventy-fve foot
err will not be known until she can be
seen in practice off Sandy HOOK. Her
description as cabled from England,
points to a yacht which departs from
many of the orthodox canons of sloop
building. Many yachtsmen believe that
designer Nicholson with his radical in
novations has produced a boat that
will prove extremely formidable. This
belief increases the interest with which
Shamrock " is awaited on this side. OF
the Atlantic, n raises the question
again as to whether the cup committee
will permit the challenger to be towed
at any time during the long ocean voy-
age which Is to be soon undertaken.
The same question is agitattng Eng
discussion IN both clubs and public
prints. regarding this important angle
of the cup contest. n impression
prevails abroad that the New York
Yacht club committee Is opposed to
granting permission to tow and while
the matter is under discussion neither
the challenging nor defending clubs
will state their official attitude in the
matter. Basing their. opinions on the
assumption that such permission will
be granted reluctantly, II at all, the

WOULD EMPLOY
1872: A SECRETARY
ASSOCIATED CHARITIES BOARD
OF DIRECTORS MET YESTERDAY
AT THE COMMERCIAL CLUB AND
DISCUSSED PLANS FOR WORK,

The board of directors of the Asso-
ciated Charities met last night at the
Commercial club at 8 O'clock. with
five members present. The meeting
was continued to some future date,
when it is hoped that more members
can be present.
At the meeting last night the matter
of the employment of a trained secre-
tary was taken up. 1t is felt that, in
order to do organized work, and pre-
vent duplication. the services of a
trained secretary are necessary. Of
the budget of $4,000 which it is hoped
to raise. there is at the present time
some $500 pledged on condition that
the total amount is raised. If this
sum can be obtained, it will allow
much more effective work by the AS
ISOLATED Charities than has been pos
sible in the past.
The officials feel that much Of the
work which is being done is not SO
effective as it might be, on account of
lack OF organization, and they hope
also that the employment of a trained
secretary will be effective in the pre-
vention of much iniudicious charity.
Many persons who are anxious to do
charitable work r not in a position to
distinguish the worthy from the I'M
worthy, and this separation could be
accomplished by someone giving full
time to the work.
It is hoped also that it will be pos
sible to employ an assistant visiting
nurse, to give a part Of her time to
the work. Miss Hazel, visiting nurse,
is rushed with work during the winter
months. and during the heat of the
summer. and many deserving cases are
necessarily neglected on this account.
If every man in the city Of Fargo would
consent to take out a ST. membership
in the organization, the amount re-
luuired could be raised in q short time.

but the campaign manager said
nothing doing and Chairman Page
was requested to put the division BAN
uer on Chairman LOOMS table. Chair
man LOOMS hade a brief address and
told the workers that he expected ever
a better report from his cohorts to-
day. One of Chairman LOOMS live

give Division A a run for their money
