Here is sure relief foI
Constipation

You cannot be well and happy and
be constipated - that is certain.
Headache, dullness, sallow COM
pleScion, sickness and operations
are caused by carelessness and our
modern way of living. No laxative
is effective that does not act on the
entire bowel system. Just the
emptying of the lower bowel does
not give best results. The new ac-
cepted way is by taking KLoK-LAx
tabules at 8 at night. KLoK-LAx
thoroughly cleans the entire bowel
system. Your druggist will guar

Now, at phrase from the prose

one heard her SOFT broken cry
heard it and shuddered.
Gentlemen of the jury, you have
a very simple case to decide--a per
feet case of circumstantial evidence.
You have all stated under oath that
you have no prejudice against cir
cumstantial evidence - that you
would bring a conviction on such evil
dence.
1--WE ask you to remember this.
''The defendant in this case is in
GOOD circumstances. He has had the
benefit Of an excellent education.
These advantages aggravate rather
than lessen his guilt. We eXhort you
not to be swayed by class sympathy
We ask you not to encourage crime
among the young by permitting it to
go UNPUBLISHED.
"In this State it is notorious that
the well-to-do escape punishment for
their crimes, while the unfortunate
are severely handled. This condition
is a burning shame to us. A muir
der is a murder, whether committed
by thug or a college graduate.

sponsibility; demands that you give
unf1inching justice. We ask the
same punishment for this defendant
as that meted to an ignorant and I'M

treme penalty under the law.
1.-THE extreme penalty under the

Emma cried out. She buried her

HON. HoDGDoN c. BuzzELL
OF Belfast

There is a campaign of propagan-
da underway to the effect that | am
in this campaign to help the Baxter
interest," said Hon. Hodgdon C.
Buzzell of Belfast, one of the quartet
of aspirants seeking. the nomination
as Republican candidate for the seat
in the United States Senate, left va
cant by the recent death of Senator
Bert n. Fernald, speaking at the only
primary speaking rally held in this
section, Thursday evening at Au-
gusta City Hail.
Il hold here a letter." continued
the Belfast man. which is the latest
phase of that propaganda, informing
me that a report is being circulated
in the eastern and northern sections
of the State to the effect that Baxter
sent me a check for $1,000 to finance
my effort, just last week.
Il don't believe that Arthur Gould
knows of this thing, l know Arthur
Gould, the Wizard of Aroostook,' as
they are calling him, l sat with him
through one session of the Legisla-
ture and | do not believe that he ever
started such propaganda.
However" continued Mr.. Buzzel
neither of my friends. the blue
blooded millionaire candidate from
Portland or the red blooded candi-
date from Aroostook has declared
himself on issues which you, the cleo
torate have a right and should know
how they stand.
Mr.. Buzzell then touched briefly
upon policies of the Republican ma
tional administration, declaring him
self in accord with the Coolidge
economy program. which durAg the
past three years has resulted in re-
duction in the running expenses of the
government of two billions. five hun
dred millions Of dollars; in the matter
of agriculture. he declared that he
had no panacea for the farmers ills,
saying, "the farmers of this State
have been over politically exploited
They must work out their own prob
lens. When the farmers get closer
to their market through shipping and
transportation. the cankering ills of
the farmers win be somewhat taken
care of.
Speaking of the great Republican
principle of the protective tariff. Mr..
Buzzell stated that he was in favor
of carrying the protection further. Il
am in favor of protecting the country
itself by keeping aliens in their own
lands"

ton Let all the people serve and

The Belfast man. who is we'll
known in this city because of his
five terms in the Maine Legislature
was well received at the meeting last
evening, and his audience followed
his remarks with the closest of at
tention, applauding frequently.

on the platform and introduced the
speaker. There was a brief program
of musical selections by a five piece
orchestra.

kidney trouble, bladder weakness and
a general decline in health.

times during the night; if you suffer
with sick headache. or dizzy, nervous

four ounces of Jad Salts. Take a
tablespoonful in a glass of water be-

your kidneys may then act fine.

Sen. Reed Asserts
Mellon COnspired
To RenOminate Pepper

St Louis, Oct 2S-(P)-"The red
line of the circumference of the cir
Gle of corruption runs across the
White House grounds and passes

administration Senator Reed.
Democrat, Missouri, declared here
tonight In an address in the interest
of Representative Harry 3. Hawee,
Democratic candidate for the sem
ate.
Fresh from the conclusion OF the
prediction investigation OF CAM
paign expenditures in senatorial
contests in eastern states, Senator
Reed called attention to conditions
in Pennsylvania and Illinois as dis
closed before the senate campaign
funds committee, of which he is
chairman.
Referring particularly to the
Pennsylvania situation. Senator
Reed charged that Andrew Mellon
and his family entered into con-

they gave the Lord God of Hosts
knows.
From the public platform. with
the full knowledge of the president
Mellon undertook to tell the voters
of Pennsylvania in the name of the
president to vote for Mellon COM

Opposed to this combination was

some considerable extent gathered

Point Out Wages
Rail Workers Less
Than in Year 1921

New York, Oct. 2S.-(P)-F'igures
were introduced today before the
board of arbitration, in the wage dis
pute involving eastern railroads to
show that the basic wage rates of
laborers, bricklayers and plasterers
have increased since 1921, while the
wage rates for railroad conductors
have fallen from S0.5 cents to II cents
an hour. s.z
The board is attempting 70 settle
the wage dispute growing out of the
demand made by approximately 91,-
600 trainmen and conductors for
wage increases of about 20 per cent.
j. H. Evans, of Cedar Rapids,
Iowa, attorney for the Order of Rail-
way Conductors. introduced the COM
parative wage figures, which he said
were supplied by the bureau of labor
statistics of the United States de-
paitEl, mt of labor for the years 1921
to 1926. In that period, according to
the figures he introduced. the basic
hourly rates of conductors fell from
sos cents to II cents, while the hour
~ rate shown for bricklayers increas-
ed from S1.194 to S1.565 in 1926. The
basic wage rate for plasters this year,
according to his figures was S1.495 an
hour. an increase of 37.5 cents over
1921, while the rate for laborers for
1926 was S5.1 cents, an increase of
81 cents over 1921.
Factors other than the earnings of
railroads should be taken into con-
sideration in determining the wages
OF trainlnen and conductors, l.. E..
Sherard. president of the Order of
Railroad Conductors. told the board.
Hardsh1ps which these men have to
undergo constitute one factor which
should be taken into consideration, he
said. The hazards of their work. the
age limitations, the long training
periods required and the lack of OPP
portunity for promotion also were
presented ty him as factors to be
considered
