Why Plucking Is Easy

Attorney General Palmer gave the
packers "clean bill of health" and said
they constituted a good trust. It is
easy to pluck the public when the pluck
ers control the governmental author
tiles.
When this extortionate profit is thus
publicly admitted by Armour & Co.,
there no doubt are other hidden profits
in the packing-house industry.
In announcing the above recapita1iza-
ton Armour & Co. last week cut an
other big melon equal to 100 per cent.
on its common stock, practically all of
which is held by members of the Ar
rnour family.
The Connecticut labor press., 1920-07-24
The Public Will Pay

Therefore it will be seen that during
the four great profteering war years
Armour & Co. have boosted their cap
ita1 stock from $20,000000 to 100000
600, an increase of $380,00O,000, or 1900
per cent, without the investment of a
dollar =
Henceforth and forevermore pur-
chasers of Armour & Co. products will
pay price that will guarantee at least
7 per cent. to the members of the Ar
mour family on this inflated capital
stock. In the meantime these same
purchasers will continue to pay the war
debt, while members of the Armour
family escape their just burden through
the kindness of the United States SUI
preme Court and the Department of
Justice.
The Connecticut labor press., 1920-07-24
Increasing Capital Stock

In October, 1916, the capital stock of
Armour & Co. was increased from $50
100000 to $1000OO,000, and the addi-
tional $80,oO0,000 stock created at that
time was giveni to Shareholders. This
came as stock dividend of 400 per
cent, going exclusively to the Armour
family.
Again, on August %, 1918, the cap
ita1 stock was increased, this time to
$210O00,00O. This was done by ad-
vancing the volume of common stock
to $150,O00,000 and the creation of an
issue of 100000 authorized preferred
stock.

"Sit down. There's a good dinner
waiting for you at Clune's when you

His story was that he had found or
the street a letter that had Inadyer-
tently been dropped. 1t was to Jordan
Of the Cattleman's National bank. and
1t notified him that $4,000 was to be
shipped to him by the w. & s. Express
company on the night OF the robbery.
Blackwell resolved to have a try for
IL. He hung around the Office until the
manager and the guard arrived from
the train. made his raid upon them,
locked the door, and threw away his
mask. He dived with the satcheI into
the nearest alley, and came face to
face with the stranger whom he later
learned 10 be Fendrick.
Fendrick, who had heard the shout
ing Of the men locked In the express
Office, stopped the robber. but Black
we'll broke away and ran down the
alley. The sheepman followed and
caught him. After another scuf1ie the
convict again hammered himself free,

later explained to Blackwell) tied a
cord to-. the handle of the bag and
dropped II down the chute of a laun-
dry in such a way that II could later
be drawn up. Then he hurried back
to the express Office and released the
prisoners. After the excitement had
subsidized, he had returned for the
money and hid It. The original robber
did not know where.
BIackwell's second meeting with the
sheepman had been almost as startling
as the first. Cass had run into the
Jack of Hearts In time to save the life
Of his enemy. The two men recognized
each other and entered into a compact
to abduct Cullison, for his share In
which the older man was paid one
thousand dollars.

MUSIC BROWNS MURDER THUDs
Bridgeport Autopsy Said to Have
Fathemed Mystery

Bridgeport, Conn, Sept. 1.-Who
killed George E. Nott-his wife or
his wife's lover, Elwood B. Wade?
Motifs body was found packed in
a trunk. bearing his wife's name,
slowly sinking into quicksand near
here. Bloodstained curtains, towels,
underc.othing and bloody lead pipe
were found in the trunk.
Wade is under arrest, charged
with murder. The police assert they
have his confession. Mrs. Mott is
also held. Wade's friend. John
Johnson, is also in custody. Police
Superintendent Patrick j. Flanagan,
states positively that he knows that
the bullet which killed Mott was
fred by his wife.
The story of what happened is a
patchwork Of uncertainties, but as
it stands today it concerns the tr!-
angle of Wade, Mr. and Mrs. Mott.
Wade, it is said las been paying
marked court to Mrs. Mott for the
past three years. Wade is % and
the son of a wealthy dairyman. Mott
objected and spoke about it to his
wife, threatening the lover with a
thrashing.
Sunday morning Mott arrived at
his home. accused his wife again
and on receiving a distasteful retort
struck her down. and kicked her.
She went to the phone and told Wade
Wade arrived shortly bringing his
! friend John Johnson along.
!! Wade is said to have struck Mott
| with a lead pipe. then turned him
/ on his stomach and jumped up and
down on his back, stahbing him as
he did so. Then he jumped off the
bed and emptied the chamber of
his revolver into the scnseless body.
! This is the course Of events IN the
| Mott household. according to TIE 10
cal police. While the body was
being damned into the trunk, the
pianola was set pumping out music
and it played all afternoon.
The room in which the m-rde'
took place was cleaned and The
trunk shut ready for transportation.
The unseemly Sabbath music
aroused curiosity and at length
brought bosom friend of the Motifs
to the door, He was met. by Mrs
! Mott and she took him about the
house. past the trunk containing her
murdered husband. and past the
closet where Wade crouched IN
hiding.

Mr.. Dodson, the "Liver
Tone" Man, Tells the
Treachery of CalOmel.

Calomel loses you day! You know
what calomel is. It's mercury; quick
silver. Calomel is dangerous. It
crashes into sour bile like dynimite,
cramping and sickening you. Calomei
attacks the bones and should never be
put into your system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish, con-
stipated and all knocked out and be-
leve you need a dose of dangerous
calomel just remember that your drug
gist sells for few cents large bot
tie of Dodson's Liver Tone, which is
entirely vegetable and pleasant to
take and is a perfect substitute TO-:
caomel. 1t is guaranteed to start
your liver without stirring you up in
SIDE, and can not salivate.
Don't take calomel! 1t can not be
trusted any more than leopard or a
wildcat. Take Dodson's Liver Tone
which stsaightens you right up and
makes YOU feel fine. Give it to the
children because it is perfectly harm
less and doesn't griDe.
