LABOR STOPS TRAINS
 OF ITALIAN TROOPS
(By United Press)

Rome, Sept. 13.-Despite the decis- ion of a majority of representatives of Socialists and workingmen not to proclaim general strike of Italian labor or to transfer the present in- dustrial agitation into politics, textile mills in Milan and other provinces have been closed by walkouts. In the Turin district, it is said that 26 mills have suspended work.
 Troop trains moving Italian forces into the northern district were held up Sunday by railroad workers, who de- clared that shifting of troops will be stopped until the industrial situation IS relieved. No governmental action against the strikers has been taken by Premier Gilolitti and his associates in the cabinet.

Augusta, Me, Sept 13.-Maine's electorate gathered at the polls today to ballot for governor, state auditor and members of congress, and to settle a political race that has been as bitter ly fought as any witnessed here in re- cent years.
 The contest in Main has been watch de with unusual interest throughout the rest of the country and it's out come, it is predicted, will indicate the trend of the national campaign. A heavy oratorical barrage has been laid down from one end of the state to the other, both Democrats and Republi- cans sending nationally known spell binders into every district.
 While conceded to be Republican state, Democrats assert they will win this year, pointing out that Democrat ic governors were elected in 1910 and 1914 and the Republican majority cut from normal 12,000 to 5000 when Hughes carried the state in 1916.
 Col. Frederic H. .Parkhurst is the Republican candidate for governor. He is opposed by Bertrand G. McIn- tire, Democrat, Pankhurst defeated Gov. Carl E. Miliken at the primaries! Mclntire was beaten by Miliken two years ago.
 The congressional races in Maine's four districts are as follows: First Republican, Carroll L. Beedy, Port land; Democrat, Frank H. Haskell Portland. Second-Republican, Wal lace H. White, Lewiston; Democrat, Wallace N. Price, Richmond. Third Republican, John A. Peters, Ellsworth; Democrat, Archie Towle, Oakland. Fourth-Ira G. Hersey, Houlton; Dem ocrat, Leon c. G. Brown, Milo.
 The present state auditor, Roy l.. Wardwell of Augusta, Republican, is running for reelection against for mer representative James J. Mellon, Biddeford.
 The vote of the newly enfranchised women will be watched with perhaps greatest interest Political observers, however, contend the new votes will have no appreciable effect on the outcome.
 The suffrage question was submit ted to referendum today, also. The state legislature ratified the nineteenth but sufficient number of petitioners asked test vote at the polls. The result, if adverse, would [ not, it is believed, effect the validity of | national suffrage, in view of the su- preme courts ruling in a similar situ- ation in Ohio.

SAYS RADICAL OF ALL EUROPE
 IN REBEL PLOT
(By United Press)

London, Sept. 13.-English sscret service operatives have uncovered what is claimed as evidence of an in- ternational conspiracy to overthrow the existing European governments by a concerted and general strike, which should be launched when the Russian Bolsheviki captured Warsaw, it be- came known today. Seizure of all fac tories and industrial plants by Italian workers was to be the first blow in the general revolution. This was to be followed by strike of English work men, after which German industry and government would be overturned by the radical element.

London, Sept. 13.-Following dis closures that federated English labor bodies have called upon American miners to walk out in a concerted strike on September 25, the Lloyd George cabinet has called upon miners In the United Kingdom to back down or come through with the proposed walk out.

The Truth About Aspirin.

Aspirin is the name given to a
chemical first manufactured by Far
benfabricken of Elberfeld Company OF
Germany, the predecessor of The Bay
,er. Co. This product was patented by
that concern in the United States on
February .27, 1900, which patent ex-
pired February 81, 1917; l. e., at the
end of the period covered by the Uni
ted States patent. Germany does not
grant patents on any medicinal chem
icaIs.
AS soon as the United States patent
expired the United Drug Company of
Boston, whose exclusive agents are the
Rexan stores, applied to the Patent
Office at Washington for a cancella-
ton of the claim of The Bayer Compa-
ny to the exclusive use Of the name
aspirin" which was the name of the
product covered in the patent.
This cancellation was a public ne
cessity because had The Bayer Com
pany been granted the perpetual ex-
elusive monopoly to use the name "as-
pirin'' the American people would have
been obliged to buy aspirin made only
by The Bayer Company, because the

pirin' than they had to claim the
right to use exclusive such common
chemical names as 44quinine,," "calo-

This decision was rendered by the
patent office on November 80, 1918.
Since the expiration of the patent a
number of high-class chemical houses
of undisputable American origin and
ownership have been making genuine
aspirin. The United Drug Company
supplies Aspirin U. D. Co. in tablets
and powder, it's output being sold ex-
clusively through the Rexali stores.
Several other reputable firms are also
making reliable aspirin tablets, > SO
that, as matter of fact, the Ameri-
lean people are privileged to buy as
pirin tablets of undoubted genuineness
and purity, the equal if not superior
in every way of tablets made by The
Bayer Company.

DUBLIN.-Should Ireland

CHARGE IS MURDER
SAYS JUDGE WILSON
CAPITAL AND LABOR NOT THE
ISSUE AT MONTESANO
JUDGE STATES

MONTESANO.-(By A. P.)-The
defense invoked its first challenge
shortly after court opened today in
the murder trial of IL alleged In
dustrial Workers of the World
Thomas c.. Connor former Monte
sano liquor dealer, was excused.
Questions Indicate Defense.
Questions asked every talesman
thus far examined by the defense in
the trial of the II alleged l. w. W,
| charged with the murder of Captain
| Warren 0. Grimm at Centralia on
November H. plainly indicate that
the |. w. W. lawyer, George F. Van
derveer, will strive to inject the issue
of capital and labor" into the trial,
alleging the Centralia tragedies on
Armistice day and the conduct of the
defendants were due primarily to
that issue, and that the l. w. w.
represents a lawful attempt to i'm
prove industrial economic conditions
This contention will form the back
ground for the claim that the defend
ants were Mt the aggressrs, and
that they fired upon the paraders in
''self defense only after their hall
had been rushed.
Issue is Murder, Says Judge.
"The issue in this case is murder,
Mr.. Vandeveer," Judge Wilson has
reminded the lawyer sternly, when
the l. w. W. advocate pressed the
capital and labor argument in his ex-
aminations of prospective jurors.
Nothing except the death penalty
will be asked by the state, it is con-
coded, in view of the fact that all
talesmen have been questioned close
ly as to views on capital punishment. |
Those who have expressed scruples |
against sentencing to death have
been challenged successfully for |
cause by the state.
All in Favor OF Death.
1t is certain the completed jury |
when the taking of testimony begins |
will be composed of citizens who have |
given assurance that they have no
objection to the death penalty for
first degree murder. Under the |
Washington law the death penalty |
may be invoked only by unanimous
vote of the jury.

BOY TRAPPER LOST
IN MOUNTAIN W|LDS
FEARED THAT CHARLES CORD
ON MET DEATH WHILE
TRAPPING
(Grangeville Free-Press.)


Charles Gordon. 17-year-old boy
trapper, probably has persisted in the
cold on the Oregon side of the Snake
river. A searching party which this
week reached Gordon's cabin on
Sheep creek, several miles up Snake
place undisturbed. Gordon and his
gun were missing. Gordon's saddle
horse was in a pasture nearby.
Gordon has been missing since De-
cember 2, when he called at the ranch
house of Winniford brothers, on the
Oregon side, and procured a quantity
of potatoes and other provisions. He
had enough provisions, it was said,
to last him two months or more.
No Alarm Felt at First.
When Gordon had been missing for
month little alarm was felt for his
safety, for he was a young man ac-
customed to the mountain country,
and he knew every crook and turn of
the rough section in which he was
trapping. However, when after six
weeks, the boy failed to appear at
any one of the widely-scattered ranch
houses of that district, alarm was
spread and early this week a search
party, including Glenn Hibbs, and
other stockmen residing on the Idaho
side of Snake river, set out to hunt
for him. The party, it is said, includ-
ed five or six men.
After difficulties, Gordon's cabin
was reached Here the searchers
found nothing disturbed, but they had
no way of knowing how long the bow
had been away from the cabin. He
was gone, and he had taken his gun
with him. Provisions were there
and his saddle horse was in a pas
ture in which Gordon evidently had
placed the animal There was plenty
OF forage for the animal, and it was
not suffering.
Follow TrOp Lines.
Believing that the boy might have
met with mishap while running his
traps, searchers ran the trap line.
but nowhere was trace of the lad to
be found. The search, however, has
not been abandoned. 1t is the opinion
OF some that he may have slipped
on a rock, while hunting, and broken
a leg or otherwise injured himself
SO he was unable to walk, and that
ne died from exposure.

vailed in the Snake river section
