AFTER SIMPLIFYING TRUST.

Washington, Jan, 90.-After months of quiet investigation the department of justice has concluded that it has sufficient grounds for suit to dissolve under the sherman antitrust act the American Smelling and Refining Company, the so-called smelling trust. Suit probably will not be filed immediately, but it is said that prep arations have gone so far that a bill in equity is being drawn by depart ment attorneys

Pains Around the Heart

When the action of the stomach is
weakened by debility or defective
nerve force the food is retained until
1t ferments. Gas forms and presses
on the other organs, particularly the
heart, the pains in that region often
causing fear of heart trouble. Organ
ic heart disease rarely causes pain
around the heart and when this
symptom is noted you should try tom
ing up your digestion before giving
way to needless alarm.

that directly affects the organs of di-
gestion. They supply to the stomach
the rich, red blood without which nor

awaken into activity the gastric
glands and strengthen the muscles of

necessary to proper digestion and as

The Grand Army Aroused

Grand Army veterans throughout the
country have been reused TO action by
the discharge of old soldiers from the
government service in Washington.
On the heels of dismissals of veterans
who had served the government faith
fully in the Washington city postoftice
for wears. came President Wilson's de-
clination of the invitation to deliver
the Memorial Day address at Airing
ton National cemetery, where so many
thousands of the boys of 81 lie sleep
ing.
President Wilson'S last-minute recall
Of his declination, after Speaker Clark,
his political enemy, had agreed TO
make the speech, has fallen very short
of satisfying the old soldiers. Evident
", they are up in arms with all their
old fighting blood aroused over these
two sIaps in the faces of the Union
veterans.
The feeling in Grand Army circles
over what the veterans regard as scant
courtesy on the part of President VIII
son on Memorial Day and the dismiss
sails of veterans from the Washington
postoffice would seem to be growing
greater instead of smaller. Washing

the national commander of the Grand
Army, is in Washington in support or

Department of the Potomac, who has
made a valiant fight for the reinstate-
ment of the veterans dismissed. Word
mas been flashed to all the old veterans
of the country to hold themselves in
readiness to defend themselves from
further attacks of the Democratic ad-
ministration.
In spite of protests to President Will
son. old veterans have been told to go,
and threatened with dismissal IL they
did not resign. The treatment accord

kilograms for senators and represen-
tatives in Congress, and the end is
not yet. Some reinstatements, out of
fear of the political effect Of these dis
missals, may be expected, but veter-
ans say that will not satisfy the af-
front which was given the Grand Army
of the Republic.
In a speech at a mass meeting, in
Washington, a few nights ago, in
which senators, representatives in
Congress and private citizens Joined
with the veterans in protest against
the dismissal of veterans, Commander
in-Chief Gardner said the question was
not local one, but one that reached
all over the country.

Advancing the Working Hour.
New York Globel

New York Globe)a
The plan for advancing the time OF
beginning and closing work by one
hour during the period from May to
Oct l yesterday received the en-
thusiastic approval of the Interna-
tional Congress of Chambers of Com
merce now in session in Paris. 1t
long has been advocated by those who
see in it means to improve the con-
dition of the working people. and its
universal adoption doubtless would be
most welcome to those in whose inter-
ests it is urged.
The main idea, of course, is to give
to the workers increased opportuni-
ties for recreation. They would en-
10Y these as a result of the earlier
closing, the advantages of which
would more than offset any slight in
convenience attending the getting TO
work an hour sooner An extra hour
for recreation during the months
when the days are long would make
for better health, and this would be to
the benefit of employee and employer
alike. There can be no objection to
the plan on the ground of added ex-
pense to the employer. In fact, II
would permit of greater economy IN
the use of artificial light. And as
light costs money, money would be
saved,

Low Tariff HeIpina the Trusts.

IT doubt If there is a particle of
danger Of Iowa sending back single
Democrat" says J.. B. Hungerford,
editor of the Carroll Herald, Carroll,
Iowa, about the Congressional eleco
tons this fall.
Mr.. Hungerford is editor and pub
Usher OF the oldest paper in his coun-
ty and is in close touch with politi
cal conditions in the Hawkeye State.
He says that the results of the Demo-
cratic tariff which are already begin
ming to show in the Middle West are
giving the farmers great concern, es-
pecially the importation of corn and
meat from Argentina to compete with
products of the American farmer.
These things are threatening the
farming industry, says Mr.. Hunger
ford, but they have not lessened the
cost of living. He says the Democrat
ic tariff is helping the trusts that
have acquired the control abroad of
foreign products that are being ship
ped into the United States to compete
with the American farmer.

Sass for the Goose Is Sass for the
Gander.

The Waterville Sentinel sizes up this
feature of Sheriff Graham's manifesto
correctly when it says THE offering Of
rewards for the detection of violators
OF the law is common. 1t is a practice
which Is regarded as tending to promote
the ends of Justice. But the offering of
reward with a proviSo that the man
who gets IL shall not be known, that he
shall give his evidence in secret and
that he shall receive in secret the pay
for his work is not in accordance with
American ideas 1t smacks of Russia
rather than of the United States. 1t puts
a premium on moral cowardice and pro-
yides wages for the skulker and pol
troon. Colossal ASS.
Strange how cowardly and mean
and skulking IT is to use secret means
to capture law breakers, isn't it? And
yet every one of the outlaw pol
troons" who is earning a dishonest,
craven, lazy eistence by preying on
the providers and protectors of inno-
cent women and children, demands Sc
crecy first, last and all the time He
secretly steals the soul and impov-
erishes the rome and body of his VIC
tim, for purely selfish gain-and such
as the editors of the Waterville Senti-
mel, Portland Argus and Biddeford
Record encourage him in it, They
tell him he is abused by law and that
to use secret means to force him to
obey the law is "cowardly and mean"
In other words, the editors of the
three allowed named tools of the rum
ira f1ic would have every man who Op-
poses their friends the booze sellers
and thugs, known to all, so that he
may be marked for revenge. The law
breaker has no scruples; neither has
the constituencies one who urges him
on for political effect The man who
for political effect. The man who
will rob another of his ability, char
acter, family and soul, will lie, steal,
burn or murder. He will hesitate at
nothing, and all his methods are Sc
cret-but nothing SO arouses his ire
and hatred as secret methods to bring

cordance with American ideas" oh,

In the innings of life with an umpire

If you do not start with "Bawl''
And many a hard chance you must take
And many a play be missed,
And many sacrifice you must MAKE
And many a ready assist
In team work alone is the winning play
AS you'll find ere the game be done,
When the clerical umpire has his say
And the score boy marks you One.
But whether you hit for single clout
or whether you're good for double,
The Short Stop one day will toss you out

History Repeats.

DEVELOPMENTS under the Democratic
tariff prove that history repeats itself.
Things come in cycles. Terrible disas-
ters, as, for instance, the loss Of the
Titanic, are, after a little time, al
most forgotten, except by those who
have suffered personal loss. But it
takes about twenty years for us to
forget a political disaster. The reason
is not difficult to see. Those most ac-
tive in business affairs twenty years
ago are being superseded by others
who, twenty years ago, were not old
enough to take note of political
changes.
Thus, the Democratic tariff disaster
Of twenty years ago, when Cleveland
was President, is being repeated today,
under Wilson Almost identical action
in many cases has brought almost
identical results. Business is bad, in
dustrial conditions have slowed down
and men are out of work; manufac-
turers, farmers and workingmen are
compelled to compete with foreign
manufacturers, foreign farmers and
cheap foreign labor.
But we are waking up to the results
of tariff reduction, and history is going
to repeat itself with the return of Re-
publicans to power. This return will
undoubtedly come with the Congress
sional elections this fall.

Business Men in Politics.

The following resolution, urging
upon business men larger participa
ton in national affairs, was unani-
mously adopted by The American Pro-
tective Tariff League at the annual
of 1914, held on January 18th:
RESOLVED, That it is in the
power and certainly within the
rights of American business men
to exert a potential influence in
American politics. Business has
rights which politicians are bound
to respect. To the end that these
rights shall be respected The
American Protective Tariff League
recommends and urges larger
participation in political affairs by
business men. II is important
that they shall exert increased in
fluence in public affairs. More
business men in politics are need
ed for the congressional, state and
presidential campaigns of 1914
and 1916, if the public business is
to be conducted with intelligent
and sane regard for tho business
needs and the prosperity of the
country.
