NO UNJUST ASSAULTS "Every Business Man Who Is Obeying the Law Must Go Ahead With AH the Energy In His Possession." CINCINNATI, O., Nov. 6.—Speaking to the Cincinnati Commercial club, of which he has been a member for fif teen years, Taft last night brought member of the club to their feet in an address sounding the keynote of pros perity for the country for the next four years. "Every business man who is obeying the law may go ahead with all the en ergy in his possession every enter prise which is within the statutes may proceed without fear of interference from the administration, when acting legally but all interests within the jurisdiction of the federal government may expect rigid enforcement of the laws against dishonest methods," was the keynote of what Taft said. "Business men are to be shown lines of legality." he said, "and are to be directed in keeping within the lines of legality, which lines have been emphasized during the last four years. Business men shall know they are to conform to the laws upon the statute books, and that no favors are to be expected for those who break them. "This shall be so that men who conduct legitimate business may un derstand that the government is back of them, and does not intend to do anything to interfere with their legi timate advancement. It is a quest'^n of definite knowledge of the statutes and of their clear understanding which shall make honest progress of our business possible. And that is, in my belief, all that is necessary to make that progress substantial and endur ing," A- SOCIALIST VOTE A DISAPPOINTMENT Party Leaders Say Debs' Vote Will Not Exceed Five Hundred and Twenty-Five Thousand. lif: committee reports a largely increased: Walsh of the independence party, is unable to make an estimate of the to-j ti.: of that party's vote. big BRYAN HAD Narrowly Escaped Losing According to the Latest Returns.','"'' MISSOURI IN WSSmm TAFT COLUMN every CURTIS SENTENCE WAS SUSPENDED Court Inclined to Clemency in the Case of One of the New York Bankers, Suspending Sentence.

The the minds of most women, Parisian means beauty—so world famous are the ladies of Paris for making themselves charming and beautiful. And yet It is a fact that Parislennes, so far as features are concerned, haven't beautiful faces, as a rule. Their beauty consists largely of immaculate complexions. An American lady, visiting a friend in Paris, obtained from her the secret of the clear, charming complexions of French women and says that it is a wash that is prepared at home and ap plied to the face daily. Obtain at your drug store ose Water, 2 ounces Cologne Spirits, 1 ounce Eppotone, 4 ounces. Put the Eppotone in a pint of hot water (not boiling), and after dissolved, strain and let cool.

Its application daily will work wonders with oven the plainest complexions, transforming the sallow and unsightly into the fresh, delicate bloom of youth. 1® CITY NEWS Comb honey at Immegart's Choice dressed poultry and seal shipt oysters at Joseph Haubert's.

For a man of his girth, Judge Taft ran mighty well. General Apathy has been succeeded by General Prosperity. 1 Mr. Bryan calls himself "a child of fortune." Ill-fortune, evidently. The church vote appears to be as hard to deliver as the labor vote. Tuesday's result makes it plain that Mr. Bryan isn't even a collateral heir. Mr. Bryan seems to have acquired the defeat habit. Likewise Mr. Tracy. The omnipresent qulry: "What are next?" Democratic we going to "All aboard for the return up Salt Creek!" shouts the Democratic Du buque Telegraph. If Samuel Gompers is ever re much in the same place. .""P" h,..ota^ab^,he The Peoria Herald-Transcript says that Mr. Bryan ran well but he ran too It is evident from the returns the good men came to the aid of the grand old party, all right. Captain Hull carried every county In the Seventh district. Next March he will begin his tenth term. Mr. Gompers has discovered that it Is one thing to promise the labor vote and another thing to deliver It. Texas Is only 140,000 Democratic. That Is a mere bagatelle—compared with Pennsylvania's 350,000 for Taft. flo the subject justice. Tt is not an unthinkable proposition that Colonel Guffey may have had something to do with Pennsylvania's Immense majority against Bryan. Not in 1906, Mr. Tracy, nor in 1908, either. Nor yet in 1910. The First district Democratic candidate for con gress two years from now will be a Keokuk man. Another gratifying assurance af forded by Tuesday's resv.lt is that neither Samuel Gomper.*, nor Charles N. Haskell will be a member of the next cabinet. The entire north w't.h the exception of the states of Nevada and Ne braska were the "enemy's country" for Mr. Bryan this year. The area of hos tile territory is becoming no smaller fast. Reports from all but one precinct in Des Moines comity show that Cum mins carried that county over Lacey in the senatorial primary, by thirty- The two "Ws" also won in Tues day's election: Work and Wages. And just to think that all that eighty-one r.inutes "hollering" at the Denver convention was wholly in vain! It is noticed by the St. Louis Globe Democrat that the country seems to have a landslide always ready against a candidate who is all sail and no ballast. A few words from Colonel Watter son concerning Mr. Bryan are now Stranger" has again taken his place In the Republican ranks and he is there to stay. The Downing (Mo.) News recently printed a communication from a country correspondent and headed It "Among the Yellowshins." Are their shins really yellow, or is it only a nickname? 'i-% in order. Whatever the brilliant have proposed the following toast at Kentucky journalist may have to say Three congressional districts in Missouri—the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Sixteenth,—all of them Demo cratic strongholds, are believed to have elected Republican representa sentatlves. Tuesday was a day of surprises, especially among confident Missouri Democrats. There will be three Republicans In the next house of representatives from Oklahoma, as compared with one in the present house. It is not im probable that several Republicans have been elected to congress in southern states. The districts are in doubt, with the chances In favor of the Republicans. National Chairman Mack of the Democratic party has issued a state ment in which he declares he does not believe Bryan will again be a candidate for the presidency. He says he believes the Nebraskan might be a candidate for the senate in 1911, provided the legislature of his state is Democratic that year, when the first vacancy will occur. The election of Taft Is a big boost for the Keokuk water power.

The latter can only be arrived at by the whole peo ple coming together as one and giving Mr. Taft their compact support. No one questions his honesty, his patriot ism. his public well-meaning.

The -whole truth probably is that the first uttaek was never really cured and the second attack was a return of the same old rheumatism. Until the rheumatic poison is driven from tho blood you will be subject to an attack every winter or every damp day. Mr. F. M. Churoh, of New jiartford, Butler County, Iowa, wasted a lot of time securing temporary relief. He says: "I began to be troubled with rheuma tism about ten years ago, when I noticed it in my right arm ana shoulder. This was after a hard day's work and the pains bothered me more or less every day after that. They were steady and dragging-like and often became so severe that I felt sick aU over and would have to go to bed for two or three days. The pains were always more intense after I had been working and using my arm, while every spring the rheumatism seemed to be worse. When I pressed on the bone of my arm, it hurt so that I coultl liardly stand it. "I had been in this shape for nearly three years and had used nearly every thing in the way of external applications, such as plasters, poultices and liniments. These seemed to relieve the pains for a short time, but they always came back. "About this time I read of Dr. Wil liams' Pink Pills in a paper and began to use them. I felt relief after taking a few boxes of the pills and continued the treatment until completely cured. Tho pills took the disease out of my blood as I have never had a return of it since.'' Dr. Williams' Pink Pills do not simply deaden the pain they cure the trouble which causes the pain. They are guar anteed to contain no narcotic, stimulant or opiate. Those who take them run no danger of forming a drug habit. Tho pills act directly on the blood, building itiupjaud streugtlieniugjhe nerves. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or direct by mail, postpaid, on receipt of price, 50 centsjper box six boxes for $2.50, by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N.

Donovan's men in military matters, and was solicitous for the regiment In every way. Col. Donovan said that he was very glad that the transfer meant promotion for the captain. Raw' Lungs.
