step in the fight OF the Iowa Liquor

Davenport was opened at z o'clock.
A crowd Of men gathered in the place

About 1880 o'clock two special agents

SNAP ACTION
BY RICHARDS

Pierre, S. D., Jan. i.-On the ground
that the United States supreme court
may hold the Richards primary still
in force, in spite Of the contrary de-
cision by the state supreme court, Dick
Richards today called together the mi
nority republicans and democrats to
nominate state tickets and formulate
party platforms. He contends that II
the federal court holds his law still In
force the tickets named today will be
the only ones entitled to legal party
designations on the election ballot
and that all others would have to be
listed as independents, Mr.. Richards,
who Is present here today, said that
the minority faction. in repeating his
law, indicated hostility to Ii. Conse-
quently he did not give that faction a
chance to do business today, deliber-
ately excluding them from his person
ally conducted convention.
Sixteen counties are represented" in
the minority republican convention
Beadle, Brookings, Deuel., Edmunds,
Hamlin, Hand, Hutchinson, Kingsbury,
Lake, Lincoln, Meade, Mellette, San
born, Sphinx, Roberts and Turner r.
A. Stone, Of Bookings, was elected
chairman, and Robert Schaber, of Hud-
son, was elected secretary. The ticket
will be named late this afternoon.
Only a few democrats appeared but
they are expected to take action of
some kind.
Politicians, generally, are not much
worried over the possibility of the
Richards conventions acquiring any
special legal rights.

Everyone Should
Drink Hot Water
in the Morning
Wash away all the stomach, Nv
er, and bowel polsons be-
fore breakfast.

To feel your best day in and day
out, to feel clean inside; no sour bile
to coat your tongue and sicken your
breath or dull your head; no constipa-
ton, bilious attacks, sick headache,
colds, rheumatism or gassy, acid stom-
ach, you must battle on the inside like
you battle outside. This Is vastly
more important, because the skin
pores do not absorb impurities into
the blood, while the bowel pores do,
says well-known physician.
To keep these poisons and toxins
well flushed from the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels, drink before
breakfast each day, a glass Of hot wa
ter with a teaspoonful Of limestone
phosphate in It. This will cleanse,
purify and freshen the entire alimen.
tary tract, before putting more food
into the stomach.
Get quarter pound Of limestone
phosphate from your druggist or at
the store. 1t is inexpensive and al.
most tasteless, except a sourish
tinge which Is not unpleasant. Drink
phosphated hot water every morning
to rid your system of these vile poi
sons and toxins; also to prevent their
formation.
To feel like young folks feel; like
you felt before your blood, nerves and
muscles became saturated with an &C.
emulation Of body poisons, begin this
treatment and above all, keep it upl
AS soap and hot water act on the skin,
cleansing, sweetening and purifying,
so limestone phosphate and hot water
before breakfast, act on the stomach,
liver, kidneys and bowels.-AdV.

WHY DONKEY WAS IN CLOVER
Punishment That Surely Might Be
cIassed az "UnusuaI," Though
Possibly Not "crueI."

Not very long ago there lived IN
England an old man, who always rode
on donkey to his daily work, and
tethered him while he labored on the
roads or wherever else he might be.
It had been pletty plainly limited to
him by one of the local landowners
that he was suspected of putting It
in the fields to Craze at other peoples
expense.

One day the gentleman was riding
along the road, when he saw the old
blow at work and the donkey up to
bis knees in one of his clover fields
feeding luxuriously.
"Halloa, John!" said he. IT under
stood you to say your donkey would
eat nothing but nettIes and thistles?"

Himself.

New York. Jan. 4.-Henry Ford, who
returned yesterday from Europe, de-
clared that his views regarding the
cause of the war have undergone a
marked change.
When he left, he said, he was of tie
opinion that bankers, manufacturers
Of munitions and armament were re-

lief that ii Is the people themselves,
those now being slaughtered, who are
responsible. The men doing the fight

who rule them do their thinking, and
they have not taken advantage of their
divine right to say for themselves what
they shall do and think, the pacifist as

BOOKER WASHINGTON,
AS SLAVE, RATED $500

Bristol Tenn.-An interesting record
of the Burroughs family, in Virginia,
who owned the family Of negro slaves
of which Booker T. Washington was
a member, shows that on November
90, 1851, Booker T. Washington, then
known only as "Bwoker," the 6-year-
old boy slave. was valued at $500. The
inventory placed upon his mother,
Jane, a value of $3.50, and upon his I'M
Gle, Monroe, value of $500. "Bwok-
er's" brother John was valued at $3.50.
John was then about 10 years Of age,
hence his value in excess of the rating
given "Bwoker."
This inventory, which has been Kept
IN a good state of preservation, is now
the property of S. o. Burroughs, OF
Roanoke, Va.
Mr.. Burroughs, some time before
washington's death, supplied the noted
negro with a copy Of this record.

Her husband heard her. and 1t wasn't

name of Joe Holmaka, her star boarder,
before whose arrival there had been
peace in Martin Sedloceks family.
In those happy days Mrs. Sedlocek
did all the work for 10 boarders, her
husband and three children and did
not rebel much, but later she blossomed
into a butterfly. She went out nights
and days. The number OF boarders
shrunk 70 eight. Joe's bill ran up to
300. Joe got to be a man OF conse-
Cuence in the house and "bawled out

All that, in effect, is the testimony
offered by Sedlocek in contesting be-
fore Judge Ludwig the application for
a divorce made by his wife.
