'Pape's Diapepsin" ends all stom-

You don't want a slow remedy
when your stomach is bad-or an
uncertain one-or a harmful one
your stomach is too valuable;
you mustn't injure it with drastic
drugs.
Pape's Diapepsin is noted for
its speed in giving relief; its
harmlessness; its certain unfail--
ing action in regulating sick, sour,
gassy stomachs. Its millions of
cures in indigestion, dyspepsia,
gastritis and other stomach trou-

POLITICS

G, A. Cook, county assessor aud
candidate for reelection, told a
large assembly of men and wom-
en- at the meeting of the Pacific
Heights Improvement club last
night, how he had been enabled
to bring about a reduction in
taxes.
cit has been my object all
along to convince the state board
of tax commissioners that our as
sessments have been too high, I"
Cook said. I'VE have been pay
ing to the state about $4,000
annually for the last six years,
more than was necessary and a
proper campaign on values and
ratios being waged.
THAT my efforts we're not in
vain is shown by the fact that
although the ratio was slig htly
decreased, the actual amount of
cash to be raised for the state was
reduced sos, 900 lower than last
year. and in spite of the fact that
our reduction in assessments was
more than s12, 100000.
King county did not fare as
we'll. There the assessed valua-
tion is over three times as much
as in Pierce. The assessor of
that county raised the valuation
over 100000 and yet they only
obtained a reduction of $136,000
in state taxes"

Poor tribute to the intelligence of any

Associate Justice Albert NJ. Spear OF
the supreme judicial court of Maine
Friday issued a rule that Arthur
Richie of Belfast, Waldo county, ap-
pear at Belfast on the second Tuesday
of May and show cause why his name
should not be stricken from the roll Oh
attorneys. This action looking TO the
disbarment of Mr. Richie was inst-
tuted by Scott Wilson of Portland, the
attorney general. by information vs.
Arthur Richie, at the request OF the
Waldo County Bar Association.
The information charges that Ar
thur Richie of Belfast at Belfast, IN
the county of Waldo. an attorney and
counsellor at law and member of the
bar of said county of Waldo, has be-
come and is disqualified for the office
of attorney and counsellor at law be-
cause of the fact that said Richie has
violated his official oaths in that he
has promoted and sued false, ground
less and unlawful suits or actions at
law and has not conducted himself in
the office of any attorney within the
courts with all good fidelity to the
courts or to his clients.
Mr. Richie is a former county at
torney of Waldo county.
