PACKERS IN CONVENTION

Several Hundred Men Engaged in the Meat Industry Assemble at Chicago. Chicago, Oct. 13.—-Rejoicing tn the year’s cessation of “muck raking” the American Meat Packers’ association opened its third annual convention in the Grand Pacific hotel. Between 500 and 600 delegates, representing the proprietors and managers of plants from all over the country, were present when Prisedent James S. Agar called the meeting to order. He “took a whack” at the “muck-rakers” who, he said, attacked many things that existed only in their imagination. The new meat inspector law which was indorsed by the executive committee, which announced that it had defeated the Beveridge bill to place the cost of meat inspection on the packers. Editor George L., McCarthy, of the National Provisioner, enlarged upon the value of the packer to the farmer: “The Intelligent, thinking farmer reallees what the modern packinghouse business means to him,** said McCarthy. “Others are sometimes led away by demagogic talk from knowledge of true conditions. Only a few years ago the farmer had either no market for his Jive stock, or it was an erratic one, or he was at the mercy of the slaughterhouse buyer. Now he can ship bls animals to market, sell them on a market basis, and get his money for them the same day.”

“ALL AGAINST WATSON.”

At the annual meeting of the Indiana Federation of Labor at Vincennes last week the fact was developed that the Republican state central committee, through ex-Congressman Cromer, of Muncie, had been at work trying to control the action of the federation. Many letters written by Cromer to delegates were exhibited in which he stated that he was writing at the request of the Republican committee and asked them to stand by James E. Watson. The federation, however, adopted a resolution reaffirming its opposition to Watson and denouncing Governor Hanly for calling the special session of the legislature. The Watson resolution contained the following statement: Notwithstanding the fact' that it was pointed out to the leading Republican politicians of the state that the record of one of the candidates for the nomination for the office of governor was such that, if nominated by the Hepub Mean convention, "he would be opposed at the polls, not only by the Indiana Federation of Labor, but by the railway organizations as well, the eonvention turned a deaf oar to our pleading and selected as its candidate a man who is responsible for the appointment of a member of the Citizens* Alliance as the factory Inspector of the state of Indiana, a man who, as a member of congress, voted to annul the eight-hour clause of the Panama canal bill; who opposed the bill presented by the railway employes pertaining to their hours of labor and voted for one they did not want; a man who voted against the bill indorsed by the American Federation. of Labor creating the Department of Labor, the secretary of which ie to be a member of the cabinet; a man who is the personal and political friend of labor’s arch enemy, Joseph Cannon, speaker of the national house of representatives, and as “whip” of the house is in accord with his principles and policies; tn brief, the Republican convention nominated James >. Watson as its standard bearer over the protest of organised labor. • • We therefore recommend the reformation of our opposition to James E. Watson as announced at the Muncie convention last year and offer the following as our campaign slogan: "All against Watson,"

Why did Governor Hanly, as soon as he got Into office, aak the legislature to P«t tn his hands “contingent** and "emergency” funds amounting to *40,OH, when other governors—Matthews, Democrat, for instance—got along with *3,000 and had something left? How has ft happened that, with enormous appropriations all along th* line, Hanly ha* found so many opportunities to spend *40,000 extra appertuaitlo* Which did net seme to others and which they did sot seek?

BABY’S ITCH EASILY CURED.

Infantile Eczema Quickly Relieved External Use of Oil of Wintergreen Compound. Infantile eczema, which has baffled the skill of the best physicians for so many years at last seems to be curable—and curable with great ease. Results of the last two years indicate conclusively that baby’s itch, infantile eczema and other skin diseases of children can be very simply cured by the application of a compound composed of oil of Wintergreen, thymol and glycerine, as in D. D. D. Prescription. The Rev. Lewis Steeley, of Weatherly, Pa., writes: ‘‘Our baby boy’s little face was dreadfully covered with eczema that blood and water ran from the sores nearly all the time. After using 3 % bottles of D. D. D. Prescription we are so happy to tell you he is entirely cured and the disease has never broken out again. If this letter is in any way a help to other sufferers, you may publish it." If you have a child which is suffering with this terrible itch, we are sure you will not neglect one hour to give your baby the right kind of relief. We have seen too often how quickly the remedy mentioned above takes the Itch away at once and how all the cures seem to be permanent; we have seen this too often to hestltate at all in the recommending the remedy for your children.
