CITY IS TAKING DOWN ITS POLES [Continued From First Page.] 1 All public service corporations will be urged to continue their co-operation in this important movement. City Electrician Diehl was asked to day what steps are now being taken to get rid of the poles still standing and to a Telegraph representative he made this statement: "The work recently completed by the city has been the extension of the Market street underground installa tion to the Hill district. This has made possible the removal of a line of poles on the main street practically from Front street to Eighteenth street. Tne poles between Front street and the subway were removed some time ago. Those from the subway to BEST WAY TO USE rOBACCO-CHEWIT! Most Wholesome and Enjoyable Form of Chewing Tobacco Is the Plug Form •AMERICAN NAVY" TASTIEST PLUG You'll always find that the most con tented tobacco users are the men who chew. It's the only way that the whole some, mellow-sweet leaf gets close to the tongue and pleases the palate with rich, juicy flavor. And when the palate is pleased, digestion is aided and the general health promoted. But the form of your chew is highly important. \\ hile tobacco is made in various forms for chewing, it is a fact I that no form has ever been discovered which will compare in healthful and satisfying quality with the old-fashioned plug. Chew* a first-class plug tobacco, like American Navy, with the delicious, ap petizing, digestion-promoting flavor pressed right into it and kept there, and you get ail the enjoyment and benefit out of tobacco that the choicest leaf can give you. _No "scrap" chew made can compare with American Navy. In "scrap" only pieces of leaf are used, while the whole rich leaf goes into the American Navy i plug. Also "scrap." being loosely pack- ' ed, can't possibly hold the fresh, fruity flavor of the leaf lite a hard pressed American Navy plug. Your first trial of American Navy < will open your eyes to the genuine en- j joyment there is in tobacco when it's | pressed into golden-brown plugs and chewed. In 5c and 10c cuts.

THURSDAY EVENING, Eighteenth street have been cleared of wires and will be taken down at once. The Hill extension of the underground also covers many other streets In that district, resulting in not only the re moval of other poles from the streets but as well the elimination of shade tree mutilation and most important of all a more reliable system. "Following the completion of the underground work in that section it is proposed to take up the Northern section of the city. This work w\ll extend from Market street north and it is hoped to release all the poles maintained in the business section dur ing the coming year. "Heretofore the city has scarcely been in position to consistently insist upon the public service companies placing their wires underground for the reason that in ..many instances it would have heen necessary to continue the poles for the mere purpose of car rying the city wires. The city has now demonstrated its anxiety to' clear the streets and can consistently en force the removal of all overhead wites in the business section of the city."

Perkins, after a meeting of the Execu tive Committee of the Progressive National Committee. "We, of course, are for Col. Roose velt," declared Mr. Perkins, "and shall suggest his name to the Republicans. If they reply that they will not agree on the Colonel we shall ask them to name us their man who ought to be as nearly unanimous a choice as Our man is. We are willing to be reason able for the sake of harmony." Appeal to Patriotism Mr. Perkins' statement supplement ed a general statement issued by the Executive Committee, in which it. was said: "If the Republican convention is responsive to the patriotic spirit that brought the Republican party into be ing and made it dominant for half a century, it will meet this crisis in a spirit of broad patriotism that rises above partisanship. Should the ef fort fail the responsibility for the re sult will rest on other shoulders than ours." "In this turning point In world his tory we will not stick to details. We will lay aside partisanship and preju dices, but we will never surrender the principles for which we stand and have stood, and will follow only a leader who we know stands for them and is able to put them through. We are for peace, but not for peace at any price." It was said that the Republicans and independent voters in general had re sponded "understandingly to the senti ments expressed" in the statement is sued in January by the Progressive National Committee, which in effect was an appeal for Republicans and Progressives to "get together." Agreement Necessary It was added, however, that "there is an element in the Republican party leadership which seems to be giving more thought and attention to what that party is against, and whom it is against, than to what it is for and whom it is for. Therefore, we again .call attention to our Chi cago statement as to the inevitable outcome of a failure to reach a com mon understanding." "Reports from the Progressive or ganization throughout the country," the Executive Committee's statement says, "show that the American people have become impatient of leaders who hold that comfort, prosperity and ma terial welfare and above honor, self sacrifice and patriotism; that we need a re-awakening of our elder Ameri canism, of our belief In those things lhat our country and our Hag stand for: that our people are seeking lead ership of the highest order and most courageous character—leadership that will draft to itself for the country's benefit the unselfish and patriotic ser- MAY 11, 1916. |vice of our ablest citizens.

Most people foolishly seem to think they are going to get renewed health and strength from some stimulating medicine, secret nostrum or narcotic drug, said Dr. Sauer, a well-known specialist, who has studied widely in both this country and Europe, when, as a matter of fact, real and true strength can only come from the food you eat. liut people often fall to get the strength out of tlielr food because they naven't enough Iron in their blood to euublc It to change food into living matter. From tnelr weakened, iifervuus condition they know something is wrong, but they can't tell wrtiat, no they generally commence doctoring for ■ tQmach. liver or kidney trouble or iymptoms of some other ailment caused by the lack of Iron In the blood. This thing may go on for years, while the patient suffer* untold agony. If you are not strong or well you owe it to your self to make the following test. See how long you can work or how far you can walk without becoming tired. Next take two five grain tablets of or dinary nuxated Iron three times per dav after mesls for two weeks. Then test your strength again and see for yourself how much you have gained. I have seen dozens of nervous, run down people who were ailing all the while, double their strength and en durance and entirely ect rid of all symptoms of dyspepsia, liver and other Charles C.
