CLAIM CREDIT FOR
DEFEAT OF BARNES
Anti-Salocn League of New York's
Plan of Battle Is to Concentrate
on Shining Light"

Indianapolis, Ind, June 27.-Credit
for the defeat of William Barnes as
Republican national committeeman
from New York was claimed for the
Anti-Saloon league by VIM. H. Ander-
son, superintendent Of the league for
New York, at tonight's session of the
leagues annual convention.
"The fundamental principle in re-
form fighting is to pick out shining
mark" said Mr.. Anderson. go after
somebody big enough, so that it is a
real credit to be whipped by him. The
most shining mark in New York state
a few years ago was William Barnes.
We went after him deliberately and
in cold blood. The Anti-Saloon league
last fall started fight to get pressure
into New York from the country at
large, to retire this man as Republican
committeeman, and l call your atten-
ton to the fact that Mr.. Barnes is
no longer on the Republican national
committee. We do not claim all the
credit, but we helped some."

CAL0MEL TODAY,
SICK TOMORROW
Desc Of Nasty Calomel Makes You
Sich and You Lose q Days Work.

Calomel salivates! It's mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on a slug
gish liver. When calomel comes into
contact with sour bile it crashes into
it, causing cramping and nausea.
If you feel bilious, headachy, con-
stipated and all knocked out, just go
tC your druggist and get 50-cent bot
tie of Dodson's Liver Tone, which IS
a harmless vegetable substitute for
dangerous calomel. Take a spoonful
and if it doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up better and quicker
than nasty calomel and without MAX
ing you sick, you just go back and
get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; be-
sides. it may salivate you. while il
you take Dodson's Liver Tone you will
wake up feeling great, full of ambi-
ton and ready for work or play. It's
harmless, pleasant and safe to give to
| children; they like it.

in ANNUAL Meeting
Indiana Superintendent Tells OF Fight
Against Liquor in the
HOOsier State.

Indianapolis, June 27-The Anti
Saloon league OF America held the
opening session of it's annual conven-
ton here today when Superintendent
e. S. Shumaker of the Anti-Saloon
league of Indiana welcomed the dele
gates.
Mr.. Shumaker said the fight in In
diana had brought about a saloonless
population in that state greater than
in prohibition Kansas and three times
as great as in prohibition Maine.
"Allowing Is feet to saloon, we
have permanently buried in this state
nearly Is miles of Saloons" he said,
!"yet. in spite Of this Indiana is one of
the worst rum-ridden states in the
union"
Indiana" he continued, "is now
second in the manufacture of spurious
and eleventh in the manufacture of
malt liquors. Many of our large cities
are under the corruptest kind of
brewery rule. Liquor interests in this
state have actually controlled, at
times in the past, in the selection of
the chief executive of our state of
Legislative assemblies, and even con-
gressmen, including some United
otaCeS senators.
GAS a result, public opinion has
been outraged, laws have been tramp
led under foot and what amounts to
a state of anarchy has ensued in some
|places.
"The people of Indiana have been
very patient and long suffering
amidst such indignities, and have
given the liquor interests every OPP
portunity to make good, but the liquor
interests have Knocked at justice and
have spurned mercy, defied law and
public sentiment and at length the
people in this fair state have made up
their minds that the liquor traffic
must go. Hence they have raised the
banner of statewide prohibition and
have determined to elect legislature
this autumn which will liberate our
state from the blight of liquor traffic
forever"
Crime Against Cradle.
DR.. A. c. Bane, financial secretary
of the league, spoke on "Our Country's
Crime Against the Cradle" The
country's greatest crime, he said, was
the licensing of the liquor traffic,
(which menaces the life and character
of every American child and the flu
ture of the republic"
ut has been found in Germany" he
said, "after years of investigation,
that of the children born to total alb
staining parents, 80 per cent were
born normal, while but 18 per cent
were born defective or degenerate;
but it was also found that of the
children born of regular hard drinking
parents, only 17A per cent were born
normal, while S21a per cent were de-
fective in body, mind, or both.
| "The scientists in our country have
declared that IS per cent of the defec-
tive children are made defective by
the liquor consumed by their parents
or by themselves"
| DR.. Bane quoted number of med
ical authorities in all lands who say
that liquor is the chief cause of all
defects in the growth of children, and
insisted that prohibition of the liquor
traffic was necessary if the children
were to be given their natural rights
and heritages.

err, who arrived here late today, and
who said the trucks came from the

Military authorities here said they
had heard nothing Of an engagement
between American and Mexican forces
on the Santa Maria. 1t was pointed
out, however, that column of the
Eleventh cavalry had been securing
that district in search of survivors of
the Carrizal battle. Consensus of
opinion was that the captives may
have been stragglers from the various
Mexican commands, who had been
picked up by the cavalry column.
