president has not ceased his campaign against the criminal corporations. Our readers know that scarcely a day goes by that they do not read in the columns of the Palladium an account of the proceedings against some criminal corporation, or the officer of some such concern. Last night, for instance, E. H. Harriman, as dirty a lawdefying Wall street scoundrel as ever lived, was ordered to answer questiuns by Judge Hough of the United States circuit court that he had refused to answer when on trial. Does that look as though the president had declared

Untered at Richmond, Irid., PostofTico As Second Class Mail Matter. BLACKGUARDLY JOURNALISM. Do you bclievo that President Roosevelt "would Kill his conscience for the paltry sum of $S,'J10? Do jou believe that any Mini of money would vo appeal to hiui that he would cease trying to bring the criminal corporations to time? The Indianapolis News evidently believes the president could be capablo of any such dirty trick, from the outrageous news article It permitted to be printed on its first page last night, which we herewith reprlnti Chicago, Jan. la A New York dispatch to the Inter Ocean says that behind tho offer of the presidency of the Knickerbocker Trust company to Secretary ol the Treasury Cortelyou, and the rumored split between Mr. Cortelyou and President Roosevelt, are peculiar facte, according to men familiar with tha Inner affairs of the Knickerbocker. President Roosevelt, it is declared, is tfeply Interested In the fate of an account with the Knickerbocker Trust company, which showed a balance on October 22. the day the institution closed, of $55,610. Various bank presidents in the city have been told that this money belonged to President Roosevelt, and was deposited by his brotner-in-law, Douglas Robinson, who at timea has acted as tho president's financial adviser. In whose name $55,610 now stands could not be- definitely ascertained. It is known almost to a certainty that it is not In the name of Mr. Roosevelt. It la believed to be In the name of some member of his family. When the Knickerbocker Trust company closed its doors it is said that President Roosevelt became much excited and Insisted that everything possible must be done to restore balance to the financial situation in New York and to enable the company to reopen without going through a costly receivership. It is declared that Mr. Roosevelt's disregard of Wall street and the effect of the administration's anti-corporation crusade underwent a complete change aud he directed Secretary Cortelyou to exhaust the powers of the treasury to restore matters to a normal level.

The series of historic conferences between Cortelyou, J. 1. Morgan and other New York financiers and the decision to deposit every available dollar of

Vl banks and to issue Panama canal bonds and short term treasury certificates followed. It is now said ihat President UooseTtdt wishes Mr. Cortelyou to accept the offer of the presidency of the Knickerbocker, believing that he will be able to bring the $8,000,000 of unasscntiug

depositors into the reorganization plan. Unless these depositors agree to the reorganization scheme and the trust company goes into a permanent receivership the expense of winding up Its affairs will be about $6,000,000 a loss 'which will fall almost wholly upon the depositors. This would amount to a tax of about 15 per cent and would reduce the $33,610 account by $8,340. In the first place, just notice the source of this highly edifying piece of

aewg, the Chicago Inter Ocean, famed from ocean to ocean for its ready support of the crookedest kind of politics and politicians. The paper that next day after the financial troubles broke out In New York, due to the exposure of rottenness on the part of lleinze and Morse, came out with a three column editorial blaming President Roosevelt for the whole trouble. And now this same Inter Ocean discovers that the president has ceased his at

tacks upon the corporations because

some money of his was deposited In the Knickerbocker Trust company, a

large per cent of which he would lose

Iu case the defunct trust company were forced to undergo a receivership. Df all the dirty lies that have been Issued against President Roosevelt this la about the lowest, and only shows ' tow far the honorless and honor-dc-itroying sharks of Wall street and their hired newspapers are willing to jo in order to blacken the name of the me man who dared to stop their dir:y confidence game. But they can not 'ool the people1. The great masses of his country, thanks to the liberal edication they have received through he efforts of President Roosevelt, ;uow just -what kind of dirty, lying, lisuonoivd :hurks infest.

But the thing that hows the utter absurdity of the dirty x printed above is the fact that the

above all things, loves fair play and the dirty deals the president is getting

will line them all the more on his side. That the Indianapolis News would so far forget its honor as to give publicity to such a dirty attack as it did in the above, carries a feeling of shame to the hearts of all true Indianlans, for Indianians do not relish having a dirty blackguard in their midst.

PULLMAN CAR EXTORTION9. To the traveling public that has so long suffered from the extortions of the Pullman sleeping car company, Senator Lafollette of Wisconsin, of;-;is a ray of hope. George tf. -Loftus of St. Paul, Minnesota, representing the Minnesota Shippers' association, has filed with the interstate commerce a petition, asking that a reduction of 25 per cent, be made in sleeping car rates and that the price of the upper berth, be made one half that of i.he lower berth. Senator Lafollette is backing Mr. Loftus. And he is noL iho only one either. Any one who travels knows that the price he is forced to pay for a berth is nothing more nor less than high handed robbery. He knows too, that it is a rank injustice that he must pay as much for a stuffy, illy ventilated upper berth, as does his more fortunate lower neighbor. The exaction of the Pullman trust have long been galling to travelers, yet they are powerless. Every shippers' association and every newspaper in the country ought to exert their influence and lend their assistance to have th!s petition to the interstate commerce commission acted upon favorably to the petitioners. If tho Pullman company has become so arrogant that it defies state laws, it is time to ascertain whether it can pursue the same tactics with tho federal commission.

Percentage of Impure Drugs The Same.

In his report for November in the bulletin issued by the state board of

health, H. K. Barnard, state food and drug commissioner, directs a few "pertinent remarks" at the druggists of

the state. Incidentally Mr. Barnard says the conditions of the drug trade aro not satisfactory. The quantity of

adulterated food on the market has de

creased in a marked manner in the

last year, he declares, but conditions in the drug trade are the reverse of those found in connection with tin manufacture and sale of foods. "Tho percentage of adulterated drugs In 1906 was 62. 5 per cent," says the report. "In August, 1907, 50 per cent, and at the present time 59.9 per

One of the Most Important Questions To Consider In the Search for Happiness and Health. The burning question to you is, "Are you getting out of life all the pleasure and the halth you are entitled to?" If not, why not? No matter whether every organ and member of your body is in a sound state of health and strength, if your stomach is in any way disordered, you are not going to bo "yourself." You are going to be a worried, ont-of-sorts, nervous or sullen individual, whose actions will reflect your condition inside, and people will naturally avoid you. The world wants to 6milo and be cheerful, and unless you are cheerful and smile, at least, occasionally, you will have few friends, fewer opportunities, no success, and you will go down in defeat defeated by dyspepsia and a bad stomach. A good and thorough digestion has a quick, wonderful reaction unon the

brain. You must have noticed, It many times, for the brain and stomach are as Intimately connected as a needle and its thread, one can hardly be used to advantage without tho other. If your stomach is slow and lazy in digesting your food, it will produce at once a slow; lazy and cloudy influence upon your brain. Mark it! If your stomach has absolutely quit work, and fermentation is poisoning your vitals aa a result, surely your brain is going to be sluggish and correspondingly depressed. No one need tell you that. But why continue to suffer all the

cent. No improvement in the quality miseries and torments that a disord-

CLEAR THINKING MEANS SUCCESS Feed your brain on Grape-Nuts a true brain food, made from wheat and barley by a special process. Try it. "There's a Reason

to thoroughly and completely digest 3,000 grains of any kind of food, doesn't it stand to reason that these

little Dyspepsia Tablets are going to digest all the food and whatever food you put into your stomach? Science nowadays can digest food; without having to use the stomach for it. And Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the result of this scientific discovery. They digest and digest thoroughly and well, anything and everything you eat. So, if your stomach refuses to work or can't work, and you suffer from emotions, bloat, brash, fermentation, biliousness, sour stomach, heartburn, irritation, indigestion, or dyspepsia of whatever form, just take one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and see the difference. It doesn't cost you much to prove It. Then you can eat all you want, what you want, whenever you want, if you use these tablets, and you can look the whole world in the face with a beaming eye and you will have a cheerful spirit, a pleasant face, a vigorous body and a clear mind and memory and everything will look and taste delicious to you.

All the committeemen favored an early convention perferably during the last week of March, but difficulty was encountered in designating a day, inasmuch as tho Southern Indiana School Teachers' association, which annually attracts from oOO to 3,200 persons, will meet in Indianapolis that week.
