Thouias A Edison, the great American inventor, savs, "Fully eighty per cent, of the illness of mankind comes from eating improper food or too much food, people are inclined to over-indulge themselves.' This is where indigestion finds its begin ning in nearly all cases. The stomach can do just so much work and no more, and when you overload it, or when you eat the wrong kind of food, the digestive or gans cannot possibly do the work demand ed of them. It is at such times that the stomach needs help; it demands help, and warns you by headaches, belching, sour stomach, nausea and indigestion. You should attend to this at once by taking something that will actually do the work for the stomach. Kodol will do this. It is a combination of natural digestants and vegetable acids and contains the same juices found in a healthy stomach. It is pleasant to take. It digests what you cat. Sold by It. C.

FEAR OF TARIFF TINKERING Capital and Labor Seriously Concerned Over Agitation of "lewa Idea" of Revision In the Stronghold of Pro tection. [.Special Correspondence.] Philadelphia, Oct. 8. A committee of manufacturers of this city has started a movement to impress upon the citizens of Pennsylvania their direct and vital interest In the main tenance of the protective tariff policy cf the national government. Following up the formal action taken at a recent mooting of the Manufac turers' club, when vigorous resolu tions were adopted in opposition to any "tinkering with the tariff," influ ential men, prominently identified with the industrial interests of this slate, have inaugurated an educational agitation to awaken the voters of Pennsylvania to the danger confront ing them from the development of sentiment, in the west and elsewher.% in favor of a revision of the tariff. The assistance of Chairman Wesley R. Andrews and his colleagues of tho Republican State committee, has been sought, to further the campaign for a "stand pat" policy on the tariff Issue. Manufacturers Are Alarmed. The manufacturers admit that they •re concerned over the persistence of the tariff revisionists, and they look to Pennsylvania Republicans to come to the front, a3 they have done in the past, and emphasize their continued fealty to the principles of a protective) tariff. The tariff revisionists have been sending tons of literature into Penn sylvania for the purpose of breaking the lines of the protective tariff Re publicans, and they have been bank ing upon cutting dow"n the vote of the Republican state ticket at the coming election and thus weaken the voice of the state in the councils of the Repub lican party of the nation. The enemies of protection are mak ing a great play to have delegates elected to the coming Republican Na tional convention who will favor the insertion of a plank in the platform calling for a revision of the tariff. The manufacturers who have started into combat this proposition realize the gravity of the situation and look to Pennsylvania to block the game of the revisionists. Chairman Andrews' Call to Action. After a conference with some of the leading manufacturers interested in the movement, which means so much to the industrial and business inter ests of this state, Colonel Andrews to day said: "Pennsylvania's industries are en dangered by the agitation for a revi sion of the tariff, and none can appre ciate what I say better than those who have their capital invested and who depend upon the protective tariff to shield them front ruinous competition from the products of the poorly paid labor of foreign countries. "There must be no tinkering with the tariff, either before or after the presidential pleetion, and Republicans of Pennsylvania must be alive to the situation. If any move shall be made to change existing tariff schedules., even in the slightest degree, it will in augurate a period of doubt and uncer tainty which would be reflected in tho utter demoralization of Pennsylvania' 3 manufacturing Interests, and there could be but one result, a condition that would bear heavily upon the farmers and wage workers of our com monwealth, and seriously embarrass the capital employed in vast fields of commercial activity. "Pennsylvania will not lose an op portunity at the coming election to proclaim to the other states in the Union that she has no sympathy with the 'lowa idea' for a scaling down of the tariff. "In no more effective and solemn matjner can the Republicans of Penn sylvania meet this issue than by regis tering at the November election their emphatic /decree that by no act of theirs shnll the bars be let down which now exclude foreign competition with American labor. "The contest this fall is but the skir mish of the great presidential battle o * next year. "If Pennsylvania shall roll up a pro nounced majority for the cause of Re publicanism in November, the state will continue to wield a potent influ ence In the national councils of the party. "If, as the result of indifference and of paying heed to the shallow and sen sational charges of the opposition, the Democratic, candidate for state treas urer should be elected, of which, in my Judgment, there is not the remotest chance if Republicans perform their full measure of duty, the shout would go up all over the land that the Repub licans of Pennsylvania were Indiffer ent as to the continuance of the tariff, and, thereby greatly weaken the influ enco of the Republicans of Pennsyl vania in the next Republican national convention. Necessity For Action. "The consequence of such a state of affairs would be illustrated by a cessa tion of all industrial enterprises with in otir borders, with the inevitable re sult that tru l workingman and the farmer would in the end bpar the brunt of the disaster. "FRO:* to face with conditions CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1907. with the full knowledge »■ to tho embarrassments that would follow, all Republicans are appealed to as mem bers of the great party of protection and prosperity to recognia® the necea- Bity for earnest, active, and patriotic work in order not only to bury tike op position beyond the hope of rewrrrec tion, but to strengthen the position of our great state at next year's Republi can national convention in the battle lhat must inevitably be fought there for the preservation of the protesstive policies which have made Pennsylvania the keystone of the industrial arch of the federal union. None should be de ceived by those who affect not to see disaster In Republican lndifßrencs, but all should goto work at once with a will to discharge their full measure of duty. "Every Republican committeeman efcould work to circumvent the de signs of the Democrats to obtain pos session of the state treasury, which, by the way, they will attempt to accom plish by the circulation of false state ments and by aspersions upon the hon esty of the Republicans of Pennsylva nia Their unsavory methods should inspire every Republican heart with the resolve to defeat their machina tions by vigorously supporting the Republican candidate for state treas urer, Hon. John O. Sheatz, whose name is a synonym for Integrity, and who enjoys to the fullest extent the confidence of the party from one end of the state to the other. "In consideration of the approach of an important presidential campaign," said Chairman Andrews, "Republicans of Pennsylvania should set the pace by rolling up a large majority at next November's election to accentuate tbelr fealty to the principles of the Republican party and their adherence to the policy of 'leaving well enough alone," a matter of vital Importance to the manufacturers, farmers and wage earners of Pennsylvania, and also to emphasize their approval of the progressive policies of the national ad ministration." "scan"¥¥coro" So Says Nominee Sheatz to Voters of Pennsylvania. HE IS A CANDID CANDIDATE Republican Choice For State Treasurer Takes People of the State Into His Confidence and Rests His Case With Them. [Special Correspondence.] Harrisburg, Pa., Oct. 8. John O. Sheatz, Republican nominee for state treasurer, is making a per sonal canvass of the state, and wher ever he goes he is received with en thusiasm and there is reason to be lieve he will be elected by a splen did majority. "I am meeting the people face to face," said Mr. Sheatz, as he chatted about his campaign, as he stopped off here between trains, "and I am more than pleased with my receptions. "I want the people to scan my rec ord in the legislature and vote accord ingly. "While acting as chairman of the appropriations committee at Harris burg during the last sessison of the legislature, I was particularly Inter ested in the matter of increasing the public school appropriation for the counties. "With the help of the rest of the committee and the consent of our good governor, we succeeded in increasing the former amount 54,000,000, thereby making the total $15,000,000 for the n«xt two years. "Besides providing this great amount for the public school system, there were also large sums appropriated for the state normal schools, for the State College and the Universities of Penn sylvania and Pittsburg—all of which was for the benefit of the young men and women "of our state, and I am look ing forward to the time when the state government of Pennsylvania shall appropriate all the money neces sary to educate her children. "No state in the Union gives nearly as much to her counties as Pennsylva nia for the public schools. We want to fcive to each child better opportuni ties to become a well educated clti , zen, to be better qualified to do his or her part toward keeping our state in the front ranks of the Union, for these advantages should lead to a higher standard of citizenship and better gov ernment. "When the people of Pennsylvania elected that splendid representative American, Edwin S. Stuart, governor of this commonwealth, they laid the foundation of better government and the people need have no anxiety as to the welfare of their state, for their government will be conducted safely and honestly. "The assertions made by members of the opposing party, that there should be a minority representative In the beard of public grounds and buildings In order to Insure economy and hon •sty, does not appeal to the people of broader minds who know the sterling qualities of Edwin S. Stuart, our gov ernor, and Robert S. Young, auditor genera', two of the three men compris ing that board. "As a candidate for the office of stats treasur~r of this state, I am free from any obligations whatever, excepting my duty to the people of this com monwealth, and if my fellow citizens believe In me and fe-1 I will be trim to the trust I ask the-n to repose in hie, then [hope the* w'il vote r or me" \\\X \\\\ N \ VN.NKjf SECOND TO NONE % \ ADAM, j MELDRUM & ANDERSON Co.
