GRAHAM FOR MAYOR?

A rumor has quietly spread through
political circles that Andrew ]. Ora
ham, West Side banker, will again
run for mayor with the support of
the Sullivan Democrats and the Lori
mer Republicans.
If Lorimer had not got into his
present trouble it is known that he
would have set up, William Hale
Thompson for mayor, but right now
he can't come and say very much.
If the rumor concerning Graham
be true it is important because a
Sullivan-Lorimer alliance might elect
a mayor.

Boston, Mass, June 22-The first
attempt at the payment of a living
wage through scientific agreement
between state, employer and employe,

THE MEXICAN SITUATION
Torreon, June 22.-The general as
sault on Zacatecas, reported in dis
patches from Saltillo early today to
have been begun by Gen. Villa, has
been delayed for several days, ac-
cording to dispatches received today
at military headquarters, where Of
ficials were in direct communication
with Villa.
Villa planned to make a quick
march from Canitas, beyond which
point the railroad tracks are torn up,
to Zacatecas and open the attack to-
day. Upon his arrival at Canitas last
night he found the roads to the south
in such a condition that passage of
the heavy artillery was impossible,
according to dispatches here. He
may not order the general assault for
a week or ten days.
Fl Paso, Tex.-That Gen. Carran-
za's forma lreply to the invitation of
the A. B. G. mediators to participate
in the mediation at Niagara Falls will
hasten the termination of mediation
belief generally expressed here. Car
rama refused to participate under
agreement that will bind him to dis
cuss the appointment of a provisional
president or yield to anyone else con-
troll of the constitutionalist military
movements and would not permit the
mediators to deal with the internal af-
fairs of Mexico. He also refused to
agree to an armistice.
Washington.-Fernando CaIderon,
most influential of the lesser chief
tains" in constitutional circles, will
reach here late tomorrow when the,
rebels will have an official on the
ground authorized to speak for the
fighting forces represented by Villa
and the local government of Car
rama. E.

Why You Should
Battle Internally

Under our present mode of living
Nature unassisted cannot dispose of
all the waste. This waste sends its
poisons into the system. through the
Blood circulation, and brings on count
less Ills
That's the reason a physicians first
step in illness Is to give laxative.
Physicians generally. in order to{
stop this accumulation Of waste, are
now advising the use Of u. B. L.
Cascade" Natures cure for Constipa-
ton, which rids the lower intestine
of all waste and keeps 1t healthy
without drugging.
It is now being shown by Affleck's

While it Is quick and positive in its
action, it is unlike other remedies in
that it is harmless and does not con-
stipate. II simply checks the trouble
and puts the stomach and bowels in
their natural, regular condition. OF
the millions OF bottles that have been
sold, never has a case been reported
where a cure was not effected when
directions were followed, even after
other remedies had foiled. Every home
should have a bottle or more on hand
ready for sudden attacks. Full size

Prizes For Gifted Women.

Chicago, April Is. "A movement
which is receiving considerable sup
port and arousing much enthusiasm
has been inaugurated by the Chicago
Woman's Association of Commerce,
whereby American recognition is to be
accorded the notable achievements OF
women by the bestowal of a series OF
prizes similar to the Nobel prizes. 1T
is tentatively suggested that the prizes
range from $4,000 to $4,000.
The plan will be presented next
June to a body Of women consisting OF
the great women writer's, artists. mu-
sicians, fnanciers, scientists and think
ers Of the age. Calls are being sen
all over the world to summon these
women to a meeting in Chicago to be
held between the 18th and goth of
June. Mrs. Woodrow Wilson will be
among those invited.
The biennial convention Of the Cen
eral Federation of Women's Clubs.
which will meet in Chicago at that
time, will call thousands of women
from all over the world to the city.
A congress of women's achievements
to be held by the Woman's Associa-
ton of Commerce at that time will
provide an appropriate setting for the
meeting.
Chicago women interested in the pro
posed congress are Ella Flagg Young,
Jane Adams, Harriette Taylor Tread
we'll and Florence King, president OF
the Chicago WOman'S Association OF
Commerce.
