HELLER, Manager, POLITICAL BARGAINING Tuesday the steel trust, by its representatives, Gary and Perkins, Morgan’s man, appeared at Chicago, as an advocate of the anti-injunction plank which it is proposed to force into the platform. As the plank means little or nothing, it will not be objectionable to the steel trust. And yet its natural attitude toward the antiinjunction plank would be hostile. It is being opposed by manufacturers and employers of labor all over the ' country. And the lines have been sharply drawn between capital and labor. Therefore it is somewhat . startling to see the greatest trust and the greatest banking house in America actively at work to limit the powers of the courts to give them redress or to furnish them protection if they should ever need either. Clearly there is some sort of deal on. In the first place it is to be remembered that the steel trust has always enjoyed the favor of the Roosevelt administration. It has never been disturbed. On the contrary, It was permitted by the President to absorb its only formidable rival, the Tennessee Coal and Iron company, thus strengthening very greatly its monopolistic features. But, of course, there is more to it than appears on the surface. It is known that the ' steel trust is favorable to the proposed amendments to the Sherman antitrust law, on which the president has set his heart. The effect of those amendments would be to give any trust that enjoyed the favor of the administration practically a free hand would establish a sort of statute of limitations with complete immunity in its favor. At any rate the steel trust wants the amendments adopted, and it cares little about the innocuous declaration which it is proposed to make on the injunction question. Here is a beautiful basis for bargaining.— Indianapolis News, Rep. Congressman Adair visited Elwood yesterday, and th e second city gave him the warmest reception ever accorded any one. They showed their appreciation of the new postoffice he secured for them. Elwood is an Adair stronghold.—Anderson Bulletin. CHICHESTER’S PILLS TOK DIAMOND TOLAND. a Ladles!

ALBERT A. BUTLER, Secy., 141-6 t Office in Brock Block. o— — HOW TO CURE SKIN DISEASES. Eczema, pimples, dandruff and itching skin diseases are of local origin and are caused by germs. In order to cure these diseases the germs and their poisons must be driven to the surface of the skin and destroyed. Salves and greasy lotions may give temporary relief, but they do not destroy the germs that cause the disease. A St. Louis chemist has discovered a clean vegetable liquid remedy that will draw the germs and their poisons to the surface of the skin and destroy them, leaving a niae, clear, healthy skin. This remedy is known as Zemo, and by its many remarkable cures has attracted the attention of the leading scientists and skin specialists of this country and Europe. Zemo has been given the most cordial reception by the public of any similar remedy ever produced, and it is recognized as an honest medicine that makes honest cures. Zemo is for sale everywhere. You can obI tain a trial package free by writing to the E. W. Rose Medicine Co., Sr. i Louis, Missouri. Smith, Yager & i Falk have secured the agency for Zemo in Decatur and will gladly show you proof of some of the wonderful cures made by this remarkable remedy. o — SPECULATION MUST CEASE. There's Sure Cure for Asthma, Bronchitis, Coughs, Colds and Catarrh, so Why Should People Speculate. Remember, Hyomel will cure the above named diseases or Holthouse Drug Co will giv e you your money back. Go to them and ask for a Hyomej outfit, which consists of a bottle of Hyomel (a very liberal supply) and a pocket inhaler that will last a lifetime. The whole outfit only costs SLOO, and if at any time afterward you need another bottle of Hyomel to use with your inhaler, it will only cost you 50 cents. Ask Holthouse Drug Co. about it. They will recommend it "I think your Hyomel is a grand, medincine; it has done for me what doctors could not do, and I’ve tried everything. I had such a bad cough, and nothing I took did me any good. I tried your inhaler, and I never had anything help me so muejh or so quick. Wishing you long and prosperous lives, I remain, your true friend, Saba Sheline, Metz, Ind.”

The Decatur Furnace Co. will receive bids for making of a cement walk on Elm street west, until June 22. 146-3 t
