Adair.who has been here several days this week, left Saturday morning for Washington, D. C., where on Monday he will represent this district at the special session called by President Taft to revise the tariff. The session will probably last until June—Portland Sun. i it The enterprising space writer is now touting T. Taggart as a prob- ( able candidate for mayor of Indian- ( apolis. Os course it is all moonshine < but it fills the space for the spacer, hurts no one, and likely helps those , great metropolitan journals to impress themselves with the fact that they are printing hot stuff. ===== ] The lobbyists have moved on Washington and during the special session they will be busy saving their special interests from getting it in the neck. There should be a ban put on the professonal lobbyist. They are fast ] becoming the whole thing, and soon it ■will be a government by the lobbyist and for the lobbyist • s-s—s—ss—a, They have picked on ex-Governor Durbin as a harmonizer for the discordant elements in the Republican ranks of the state. Well, he will be a busy Indian all right, and it would not be a bad idea to call into service 1 I a whole militant of assistants. The job is a many cornered one, and will ' require diplomacy in job lots. c Nothing but bouquets are being hurled at the Hon. Thomas R. Mar- ’ shall, governor of Indiana. If he ' were an ordinary mortal he would al- 1 ready show the distress sign, and 1 begin to become enlarged from the gills up. He refuses to swell, all of ’ which shows that he is a mighty big, 1 brainy, independent man and about the best that ever happened around the governor’s office. ____________ i President Taft, our tariff revision president, has done some good team

work with Stand pat Cannon and his 1 manager, James Eli Watson, of Indiana, Vp to date the work of the president is certainly satisfactory to the many great interests which have controlled the government and the political party in charge thereof. A t few more stunts and President Taft I will te just as good a standpatter 1 as the trusts might wish for. The republican senate refused to ' agree to the bill passed by the democratic house repealing the laws giving the in-and-out fees to the sheriffs, and the transcript fees and manymore to the county clerks. These bills were passed early in the session over the veto of Governor Hanly. The house, recognizing its mistake, passed bills repealing the fee laws. The senate refused to put the repeal bills through, though it had no difficulty whatever in driving the Sunday baseball bill through without allowing any time for debate. But these fee bills are, of course, of a different sort. Every one understands that. They were wholly in the interest of the people, their purpose being to stop a grab for fees. Only the people wanted them, and the people hardly count —Indianapolis News.

Lawrence, 158 W. 17th St., Holland, Mich, writes about the marvelous results obtained from the use of Parsian Sage, the delightful hair tonic, which is now on sale all over America. "For several months my hair had been falling out, and dandruff also appeared. I used some socalled hair tonics and renewers, but never received any relief from the scalp disease until I procured Parisian Sage, and used it for about tw-o weeks. Parisian Sage made the hair stop falling out, and caused it to grow in quite heavily, stopped the dandruff, and made the scalp cool, clean, and comfortable. It also leaves the hair silky, and does not make it stiff or sticky. I endorse the use of Parisian Sage. It is all right.”—October 30, 1908.

IT IS CREATING MUCH EXCITEMENT. Scores of People Are Praising it to ths Skies. The following article recently appeared in the Muncie Star: “The reporter has heard several of the leading doctors of our city say that Root Juice is certainly a great medicine, as a number of their patients after using it a short while for chronic stomach, liver and kidney troubles were rapidly improving. One broadminded doctor was heard to say in the presence of number of people that he prescribed it to his wife for a chronic liver trouble and that the benefits she has derived from a short use of it is simply astonishing. The remedy is doing so much good here in Muncie that it is the common talk of the city. People from every walk of life are praising it, and as a consequence the demand for the Juice is so great that it is hard to keep it in stock. The extraordinary merits of Root Juice has been proved jby the experience of home people i whose word cannot be doubted. Those who have investigated have found ' every statement made in this paper in relation to the remedy as true as ; gospel! Scores of people are calling at the drug store daily, and praising the great remedy to the skies for the wonderful good it is doing for them- . selves, or some member of the family. Mr. F. Monroe, who is well I known here, said he had spent over

four hundred dollars for medicine and treatment for his stomach trouble of long standing without benefit until he started to take Root Juice, but that one bottle made such a change in his condition for the better that even his friends were noticing It. Mr. Jesse Bennett said: Both my boy and self were badly afflicted with rheumatism when we commenced to take Rcot Juice. In fact, I was unable to get out of bed, but after using it a while we are now entirely relievel. I am now able to get around and attend to my work without a particle of soreness or pain, and my boy no longer complains; the remedy !.a» certainly done wonders for us.” The Root Juice people have hundreds of testimonials from well known people all over the state. The remedy is beginning to create much talk here in Decatur as several that have been using it a few days are praising it very highly. o - 1 Mrs. Wilson is visiting Mrs. Fannie Cole for a few days. William Smith s somewhat mproved today, althought his condition is still serious. Work is going merrily along on the remodeling of several north end homes at present. Harry Quinn, of Chicago, is in the city, called by the death of his uncle, David Eley. The condition of Mrs. Harvey Sprague is indeed serious. She is resting but little.
