AS Republicans it must be remem-
Dered that lack of organization is in
eXcusable."
- me truth is, and it is admitted bv all
RepuDllcans who are concerned with
the welfare Of the party rather than
win the billions of any one man
or set Of men, that the Republican
party IN this state is disorganized-a
least to the extent that it is lcaderless.
Reorganization Forecast
For weeks, the talk here has been
tnat long before the fences are repaired
Tor the 1920 drive there will be re-
organization of the state committee.
George A. Glynn, the chairman. was
placed at the helm by Governor Whit
man over the protests Of many of his
closest advisers. Giynn is not per
sonaily unpopular, but he is not re-
garaed generally as tho fittest man
10 lead the party in the state. And
many members Of the committee. like
It's chairman, were elected ct the in
stance Of Whitman.
Glynn's friends are endcavoring to
Keep MN IN harness, and with this in
View have arranged for dinner in his
honor at the Republican Club in New
York City next Saturday night. Party
leaders from all over the state have
been invited to attend, and the occa-
sion Will make for an exchange Of
views-the first since the meeting Of
tnc state committee last summer.

Demands of Many
i MONS in Britain
Are Causing Alarm
Labor Leaders as Well as
Employers Fear Workers
Are OVERRIDING it; Fewer
Hours, More Pay Wanted

LONDON, Jan. 1S.-The industrial un-
rest throughout the country is causing
anxiety to large emp loyers and con
servatlve labor leaders, including J. II.
Thomas, general secretary of the Rail
Waymen S Union, who yesterday warned
postal workers, who were demanding .
forty-t wo-hour week. more holidays and
curtalment Of night work, that the in
dustrsal and economic position of this
country gives cause for alarm"
The postal workers are one of many
trade unions which are demanding
shorter hours, with the present OF bet
ter pay. Up to this time the demands
OF the miners have been embodied in
the resolutions Of the Southport Min
ers' Federation, which on Tuesday de-
manded that the government demob-
iilze all miners in thc army and that
wages other than war wages be ad-
vanced 80 per cent
Shlpbuilders are agitating for a
forty hour week, with daily wages of
81. Shipbuilders in Belfast threaten to
strike at the end of the month unless
they get forty-four-hou week.
Carpenters are asking for forty
seven-hour week and iron moulders are
threatening to strike for forty-four
hours.
Dock laborers are demanding forty
four hours for day workers and forty
one hours for night workers. They are
also much agitated over the shortage Of
beer and the poor quality of that bev-
cragc, and during the week there has
been much stacking, particularly at
Liverpool, from this cause There has
been a temporary shortage of beer at
some shipping points, due to q strike Of
brewery employees, who also complain
Of long hours.
All these unions are strong numer-
ically and we'll organized, and, from
the tone of speeches at their meetings.

ALBANY, Jan. 18.-There will be no

instituted by Governor Whitman of as

DOcIOr Tells How to Defect
 Harmful Effects of Tobacco
DOClOP
Try These SIMPLE TESTS

New York: Doctor Connor former Iy of John Hopkins hospital. says:
 Many men who smoke, chew or snuff necessarily and who are seemingly healthy are suffering from progress sive organc ailments Thousands of the-D would never have been afflicted had it not been for the use of tobacco, and thou- nds would soon get well if they would only stop the use of tobac- co. The chief habit forming princi- pie of tobacco is nicotine, a deadly poison which, when absorbed by the system slowly affects the nerves,mem- branes. tissue and vital organs of the body. The harmful effect of tobacco varies and depends on circumstances.
 One will be afflicted with general de- bility. others with catGrrh of the throat, indigestion, constipeeion, eN- treme nervousne ss. sleeplessness, loss of memory, lack of will power, mental confusion. etc. Others may suffer from heart dsease, bronchial trouble hardening of the arteries, tuberculosis, blindness or even cancer or the com men affliction known as tobacco heart.
 If you use tobacco 4n any form you can easily detect the harmful effects 8 by making the following simple tests, read aloud one full page from a book. If. in the course of reading your voice beC~--.Cs muffled, hoarse and 1ndis- tinct, and you must frequently clear your throat the chances are that your throat is affected by catarrh and it may be the beginning of more serious trouble.

If you find that you are out of breath, your heart beat is forced. trembling or irregular YOU may be a victim of functional or or ganic heart trouble If you feel that you must smoke, chew or snuff to quiet your nerves. you are e slave to the toacco habit, and are positively poisoning yourself with the deadly drug, nicotine. In either case you have just two alternatives-keep on with the self-poisoning process ire spect've of the dangers and suffer the consequences, or give up the habit and escape the dangers. You can over come the craving and stop the habit in very short time by using the fol- lowing inexpensive formula. Go to any drug store and ask for Nicotol tablets, take one tablet after each meal and in a comparatively short time you will have no desire for to- bacco, the craving will have 1t you. With the nicotine poison out of your system your general heath will quick ly improve.
 Note-when asked about Nicotol tablets, one of our leading druggis s said: Tt is truly a wonderful remedy for the tobacco habit; away ahead of anything we have ever sold before. We are authorized by the manufactur- CTS to refund the money to every dis satisfied customer, and We would not permit the use of our name unless the remedy possessed unusual merit |" Nicotol tablets are sold in this under an iron-clad money-back guarantee by all up-to-date druggists, including the Cyrus, the Kaesmann and the Os- trofsky storea--AdY.
