STORY OF NUMBER 40. 40 years ago an old doctor was putting up a medicine for diseases of the blood, that cured the worst cases of specific blood poisoning, and time proved that the cures were permanent. After many years I secured the prescription (being a druggist), and .tooftFeach ingredient separately and referred to my U. S. Dispensary and other books on medicftte and found the medical properties set down as follows: “Employed in diseases of the glandular system, in blood scrofula, constipation. stomach anil liver troubles, chronic rheumatism, catarrh, in sores, ulcers, skin eruptions, mercurial and lead poisoning. Under its use nodes, tumors and scrofulous swellings that have withstood all other treatment disappear as if by magic.’’ To com memonate my fortieth year as a druggist I named this medicine Number 40 For The Blood.

KS THE 8M THAT BUB) “PM” Last Prop Taken From Under Goodrich and Republican State Camgaign. G. 0. P. CANDIDATE CALLED Severe Rebuke Administered for Dragging Sacred State Institutions Into Partisan Politics. BY WILLIS S. THOMPSON. Indianapolis, Oct. 2.—The most destructive bomb that has been thrown into the camp of the Republican state machine was the editorial published by the Indianapolis News demanding of Mr. Goodrich that he cease dragging the nonpartisan state institutions in the mire of partisan politics. Mr. Goodrich, who acknowledged under oath that he had spent as much as $18,500 to secure the empty honor of a nomination as the Republican candidate for governor, has been running about the state spending all his time and more denouncing the Democratic state administration for “extravagance in paying 6 cents a meal for feeding the unfortunate inmates of the hospitals for the insane.” If it were a crime, as Mr. Goodrich proclaims, to pay as much as 6 cents a meal for feeding these poor, unfortunate people, even then Mr. Goodrich fails to bear in mind that under Governor Marshall and Governor Ralston all the state institutions have been kept on a strictly nonpartisan basis. He had ignored the fact that under these two Democratic administrations not only have the beards of trustees been divided equally between Democrats and Republicans, but in many of the institutions Republicans remain as superintendents. Mr. Goodrich talked so much on this subject that Governor Ralston called for a report from the Central Hospital for the Insane, which had been especally assailed. He also received a report from the superintendent of the Boys’ School at Plainfield, v here the Republican management had been inhuman. Mr. Goodrich had said in his many speeches that the Democrats dare not answer mm. The answers filed with Governor Ralston were published in full by the Indianapolis News and the editorial in that newspaper denouncing the Goodrich utterances followed this publication. The editorial has taken the last prop from under Mr.’ Goodrich and the Republican state campaign. They had relied entirely upon what they thought was an issue. When the editorial referred to appeared, al! the leaders were summoned to Indianapolis for a conference and to join in an attempt to secure a retraction. They are still wondering what to do. Every’ man, woman and child of school age’ in Indiana should read this editorial rebuke to a man who has sought to be elected to the office by dragging the most sacred institutions of the state into partisan politics: This is the editorial: “Governor Ralston Wednesday gave to the public the reply of the trustees ! of the Central Hospital for the In- j sane and Dr. George F. Edenharter, j superintendent of the institution, dealing with the charges made by j James P. Goodrich, Republican can- j didate for governor, that the institu- j tion was being managed in a waste- I ful and extravagant manner. Mr. j Goodrich in his recent speeches has I seen fit to include the state charitable | institutions in his discussion of Dem- ; ocratic extravagance. Among others j was the Central Hospital for the In- j sane. Mr. Goodrich in spreading his 1 attack on state expenses to include the state institutions has violated a precedent long established in Indiana. The state charitable institutions have for many years been regarded by the public as apart from othefr departments of the state government in the matter of political association. It has been expected of all governors on entering office that they shall make their appointments to the charity boards on the line of fitness and good citizenship, and without regard to political expediency. The standards set by long custom require that the heads of these institutions shall be men of ’ professional fitness as well as of busi- $ ness capacity, and their selection is g supposed to bo made without regard | to political affiliations. It is of the e highest importance that the state * charitable institutions shall be main- g tained on the high plane established I by public opinion through many years 1 in this state. Any political leader C who seeks to gain advantage by drag- g ging these institutions into public no- « torfety for political purposes should suffer’ the condemnation of public opinion. “Mr. Goodrich is a man of high intelligence and long familiarity with business, and therefore, can not plead the excuse of lack of knowledge of the public viewpoint mentioned above with regard to the state’s charitable institutions. It is to be hoped that he may be prevailed upon to content himself with limiting bis discussion to those departments of the state government whose effi- 3 ciency is not based on professional R standards and do not have to do with fe the dependent wards of the state. “A thorough examination of the re- & ports furnished by Dr. Edenharter to H the board of control of the Central E Hospital for the Insane in compliance H with the order of the governor si lows » that no finer exhibit of business analysis could be made. If the other ft charitable institutions of the state ® can make a correspondingly good s showing the public need have no ap- i prehension as to the conduct of its « institutions having control of the ’ state’s dependents.” *
