Thomas A Edison, the great American

the illnOss of mankind comes from eating
improper food or too much food, people
arc 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 wheu you eat
the wrong kind of food, the digestive or
gans cannot possibly do the work demand
ed of them, -ft 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 wiil actually do the work
for the stomach. Kodol will do this. It
is a combination of na'ural digestants and

A DESPERATE GAME
Democrats Resort to Campaign
of Slander and Abuse..
BOURBON TACTICS REVIVED
Despite Onslaught of the Enemy Re
publican Lines In Pennsylvania Are
Unbroken and Moving Onto
Triumph.
[Special Correspondence.]
Harrisburg, Pa., Oct. 15.
Without a single issue upon which
to make a campaign, the Democrats
of Pennsylvania, in a desperate effort
to win the coming election, have re
sorted to the old-time tactics of slan
der, personal abuse and wilful mis
representation of the Republican party
and its candidate.
In the closing hours of the present
state contest the Democratic editors
and professional spellbinders find the
tide of popular sentiment running so
strongly against them that they seem
to have lost all regard for decency and
self-respect in the reckless and un
scrupulous methods employed to pro
mote their cause.
Despite the fact that before he was
made the Republican nominee for
state treasurer, John O. Sheatz was
lauded by every Democratic newspa
per in the state as a fearless, inde
pendent and public-spirited member of
the state legislature, these same jour
nalistic stars are now filling the col
umns of their newspapers with violent
attacks upon Mr. Sheatz, with state
ments entirely at variance with their
laudatory references to him while he
was a member of the general assem
bly, fighting the battles of the people,
and they are calling upon the voters
to defeat him at the polls and elect in
his stead a man whose strongest claim
upon them is that he is a Democrat.
Reckless Democratic Oratory.
Supplementing the work of the Dem
ocratic editors, are a corps of profes
sional Democratic politicians who are
stumping the counties repeating
charges that are absolutely unfound
ed, and circulating most flagrantly
false statements in regard to Mr.
Sheatz's votes in the legislature and
in other ways misrepresenting the Re
publican candidate and his party.
This campaign of vituperation and
abuse is a logical sequence to the at
tempt at the very outset of the con
test to weaken Mr. Sheatz among the
old soldiers of Pennsylvania by tho
distribution of circulars teeming with
falsehoods and malice, and designed to
array the veterans of the Civil War
against him in the matter of the sol
diers' pension bill.
The prompt and emphatic repudia
tion of this scheme by leading and in
fluential members of the Grand Army,
who knew Mr. Sheatz's ardent and
conscientious interest in the old sol
diers and sailors, and who, over their
signatures, told the story of his devo
tion to their cause, for the time being
completely demoralized the managers
of the Democratic machine.
Bourbon Tactics Recalled.
Hostilities have been resumed, how
ever.
There has evidently been an agree
ment among the Democratic politi
cians togo the limit in the closing
days of the canvass in the matter of
misrepresentation and abuse of every
thing Republican, and especially of
the Republican nominee for state
treasurer.
Last week marked the opening of
this contemptible campaign. It is to
be carried on without cessation until
the polls close upon/ the sth of No
vember, but there is every reason to
believe that the well-meaning citizens
of the Keystone state will recognize
this revival of the despicable Bourbon
methods which for years characterized
Democratic campaigns in this and
other states.
The citizens of Pennsylvania are
all familiar with the high personal
character, the unblemished public
record, the clean purpose and the
proved integrity of John O. Sheatz,
and it is certain that the more the
Democratic editors and machine ora
tors attack liim the greater will bo his
majority at the coming election.
The people have confidence in Mr.
Sheatz and will resent the disreputable
campaign that is being waged against
him.

the home of William A. Sprung, at

She was treated by a physician but was

any good until we procured a box of
Doan's Kidney Pills for her. Their good
effects were noticeable from the start,
and after finishing one box there was a
decided improvement in every way. She
can now rest well and has a much better

Rev. Madison G. Peters Attacks Assults Upon
Personal Liberty in this State.
From the Philadelphia Press, October, 7th, 1907.
NEW YORK, Octobers.—Dr. Madison
C. Peters in his sermon here on "Why
the Church Has Lost Her Hold on the
People," referred .to the Fairbanks'
"cocktall'Mncident and made reference
to the interference of certrin religion
ists in Pennsylvania with personal
liberty and with making Temperance a
partisan political issue. Dr. Peters
said: "All men resent interference
with personal liberty. When fanatical
men of straight-laced views undertake
to dictate to broad-minded men of lib
eral views and attempt to guide them
in the narrow path of their own stunt
ed natures, as to their private business
and personal relations with the world,
—when the church does this, she strikes
at the foundation not only of personal
liberty, but interferes with what does
not concern her in the least."
"Churchly interference in private life
has recently been emphasized in the
matter of Vice-President Fairbanks'
luncheon to President Roosevelt,
whore the serving of a cocktail has
been made by the churches of the Mid
dle West a political issue. If Mr. Fair
banks deemed it proper to servo cock
tails in the privacy of his own home
that was his own affair and he acted
entirely within the jurisdiction of a
free-born American."
"Mr. Fairbanks h£4.s been savagely at
tacked in hundreds of sermons, all
of them lacking that Christian charity
which, though supposed to cover a
multitude of sins, as practiced by these
men is not large enough to cover a
single cocktail. And the church to
which he has given a life-time of ser
vice and support, after a most bitter
campaign, defeated him as a lay dele
gate to the general Convention. Of
course Mr. Fairbanks happens to be a
real Christian gentleman, broad-mind
ed enough to overlook the pettiness of
small-minded men, yet who could
blame him if he kept out of the church
for the future? While those ministers
who have denounced Mr. Fairbanks
may represent the spirit of the church,
the Vice-President knows full well that
they are not the true exponents of the
teachings of Jesus."
Then Dr. Peters, who is a native of
Pennsylvania, of Pennsylvania Dutch
ancestory, and who was for many years
a minister in Philadelphia and knows
whereof he speaks, further said. "The
attitude which the church is taking on
the temperance question in Pennsylva
nia in its fanaticism is like that which
the people of Indiana have shown tow
WASHINGTON LETTER.
I From Otir Regular Correi-por.d;nt.]
Washington, Oct. 12th, 1!)<)7.
In administration circles the
opinion prevails that there is no
doubt that Secretary Taft's visit
to China will increase the cordial
relations between China and the
I nited States and add to the pres
tige of American trade in the
Orient. The Chinese press and
people seem convinced at last that
this country has no desire to an
nex any part of their territory and
that the American people desire
China's progress in the develop
ment of her resources anil in the
welfare of her people, and the cord
ial sentiment of the Chinese gov
ernment toward the United States
is held to be one more star added
to the Roosevelt firmament.
Great interest has been aroused,
not only in military but also in
civilian circles, by the discovery
that army officers are again think
ing seriously of the advisability of
transferring the Coast Artillery
from the War to the Navy Depart
ment, and have presented to the
Secretary of \\ ar, arguments which
whether or not convincing, have
at least led him to suggest to Gen
eral Murray, Chief of Artillery, the
advisability of drawing a bill pro
viding for such transfer.
While army officers are very
anxious to get rid of this branch
of the service and would like to
see all expenditures for fortifica
tions and maintenance of the Coast
Artillery charged by Congress and
by the public to the navy, the
transfer cannot be consummated,
presumably, without the sanction
of the Secretnry of the Navy and
the Staff officers of that department
and t'.ie is every indication
the will receive the scheme
with wholesale condemnation.
Moreover, the difficulties involved
in the preparation of a bill provid
ing for such transfer are far more j
numerous than Mr. Taftaoiireciat- !
' 1
ed, or else his suggestion that such
wards the
of Temperance, political meetings are
held in the churches, even on the Sab
bath Day, with the avowed purpose of
advancing the political interests of a
minority party, denouncing men who
had been conspicuous in the church for
years, but who cannot see the temper
ance question as some of their neigh
bors see it, with the consequent result
that throughout the State in every
community can be found men who
were regular attendants aud supporters
of the church twenty-five years ago,
but who now never enter a church with
the possible exception of attending a
funeral or witnessing a wedding."
"I believe myself in total abstinence
for the individual, bat that gives mo no
excuse for interfering with the person
al liberty of my neighbor. Notwith
standing our proud boast of freedom,
we are still under both secular and
churchly restrictions. The church in
her severe attitude is only living up to
her old-time traditions, regardless of
civilization and progress. When she
sets her anathema on those who step
beyond her narrow confines, she as
sumes a prerogative on matters alien
to her jurisdiction. When she arbi
trarily takes upon herself the regula
tion of private actions and usurps the
right of conscience, striking, as she has
in the Fairbanks' incident, at the pri
vacy of the home-life and interfering
with what does not concern her, she
will lose her hold upon the people."
"The church is fundamentally wrong
when she seeks to extend her jurisdic
tion to the affairs of private life. The
people will not stand for much inter
ference in Europe, much less in Arn
ica. The church is driving thousands
from her doors by the assumption of
an authority she does not possess. In
the past she has always suffered for
her meddling with personal liberty
and and freedom of conscience. She
is under the ban in Europe at present
time for just this very offence. By in
terfering with the rights of others, re
ligious fanatics, in this country are
driving men out of the church. The
narrow-minded conservatism, the petty
intolerance, the contemptible bigotry
displayed in the Fairbanks' attack
ought to be a warning to the Ameri
can people, for the American people
will resent any interference with what
they believe to be their rights under
the Constitution to enjoy life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness, not as
the church dictates, but as they them
selves see it."x. xx.
I a measure be drafted was merely
! another demonstration of the kind
|ly shrewdness'he not infrequently
' exhibits in compelling his friends
to prove to themseves that the
j schemes they have recommended
to hi in with the utmost fervor and
'■ enthusiasm are by po means
practicable. While this sunject
seems likely to be debated with
great earnestness until the argu
ments to be presented on each side
j of the question have been exhaust
ed, there is not after all much ex
pectation that action by either the
j President or the Secretary of War
I will result.
This past week the National As
! sociation of Railway Commission
ers have been presenting argu
ments for the necessity of their
i continued existence in their annual
i session in Washington. They
have put themselves on record as
opposed to the views of the Presi
dent for Federal control of rail
ways doing an interstate business,
and have declared for an extension
of the powers of the Commission
instead of any curtailment thereof.
The amazement, recently ex
pressed by Mr. Wakeman, Secre
tary of the American Protective
Tariff League, over the extent of
the sentiment for tariff revision
throughout the country, is a source
of amazement to those politicians
and officials in Washington who
have, this past summer, taken the
revision pulse of the country- The
desire for a revision of our tariff
schedules is so universal that it is
regarded as a demand by the intel
ligent politicians.
