DELEGATES TO BE SIT TDJAHT. HID. Commercial Hopes to Be Well Represented at Club Federation Meeting.
MR. HAAS ON THE PROGRAM . - i PROMINENT SPEAKERS AGAIN TO BE 8ECURED FOR TALKS DURING WINTER MONTHS LETTER ON VOTING MACHINES. It was decided at the regular meeting of the board of directors of the Commercial club last evening to send a number of delegates to the second annual convention of State Federated Commercial clubs at Gary, Ind., on September 16 and 17. Secretary E. M. Haas, and President John F. McCarthy will be sent by the club and about fifteen or twenty other delegates from here will go also. A number of local manufacturers have signified their intention of attending the convention. The city of Gary is especially interesting from a manufacturing standpoint in view of the wonderful steel industry there and the large steel and Iron plants that have been built. Secretary E. M. Haas will read a paper before the convention on things that may be accomplished by the federation of Commercial clubs throughout the country. The idea of forming a federation originated in this city and the first convention was held here last fall. Mr. Haas is well versed on the subject and it was mainly through his efforts that the federation was formed. A banquet will be held at Gary on the sixteenth on boar the Theodore Roosevelt, the largest passenger steamboat on lake Michigan. It was the unanimous opinion of the board that the lectures or business talks before the club be continued the coming winter. Efforts to secure a number of prominent men to deliver addresses will be made and Secretary Haas was instructed to look after the matter at once. The first regular meeting of the club will take place next Monday night after the summer vacation. A general outline and summary of the work to be done through the winter will be more fully discussed at this meeting. Letter From Commissioners. The following letter was received by the directors from the board of county commissioners, concerning voting machines: "Richmond, Indiana, Sept. 7, 1909. "To the Official Board of the Commercial Club. "Gentlemen: "The board of county commissioners take this method of thanking your body for the thorough investigation it made at our request in the matter of the purchase of voting machines for our county. In appropriating the money of the county, especially where It Involves large sums for Improvements or supplies, the commissioners are always glad to have tbe counsel and advice of men that represent the county's large business interests. The office of county commissioner constantly requires the exercise of good business judgment and as we are but the servants of the people, we welcome the advice of successful business men of the county, especially from such men as constitute your board. Whether voting machines will be installed or not depends on the condition of our finances, and as pressing requests as well as necessi ties demanding appropriations are crowding upon us constantly, it falls upon us to determine the wisest course for the county within these conditions. But whatever the outcome, we want to assure you that we greatly appreciate your interest in the matter and want to thank you for the detailed report of your deliberations. We are, Yours respectfully, C. E. WILEY, R. N. BEES ON, B. H. LINDERMAN, Board of County Commissioners, Wayne County, Indiana." RYDERS WANT DIVORCE.

The Reoso n Postum builds up the human body to a prime condition of health, is that when coffee is left off, the drug effects of its poison caffeine disappear and the elements in Postum unite with the albumen of food to make gray matter and rebuild the delicate nerve centres all over the body and in the brain. This sets up a perfect condition of nerve health, and the result is that the entire body feels the effect of it. "There's a Reason."

MOST GOES TO SCHOOLS MORE TEACHERS AND HIGHER WAGES CALL FOR GREATER EXPENDITURES PERRY TOWNSHIP LEVY REPORTED. At the meeting of the Wayne township advisory board with township trustee James Howarth yesterday afternoon, the township tax levy was fixed for the year 1909. The levy was raised 11 cents over that of last year, making the total amount ninetysix cents per hundred dollars assess ed valuation. The local school tax was raised 5 cents owing to the employment of additional teachers and the higher wages paid. The special school tax was raised 5 cents owing to the improvements demanded by the state authorities in the district school buildings and the construction of additional school houses. Owing to the expenses of the Morrlsson-Reeves library being greater than the amount received from the township, the library levy was raised from four to five cents. The different levies as fixed by the advisory board and which will be given to County Auditor Demas Coe, are as follows: Township, 9 cents; local tuition, 28 cents; special school tax, 25 cents; road tax, 15 cents; additional road tax. 10 cents; library, tax, 5 cents and poor fund tax, 4 cents, making the total tax levy 96 cents per hundred dollars " assessed valuation.

Hall, who embezzled about $30 on fake insurance policies from the three local physicians,- is held at the county jail in default of $500 bond. He will be tried in the circuit court soon on a charge of embezzlement and if convicted will be sent to the penitentiary for an indeterminate period of from two to fourteen years. The officials will try and hold Hall without bond, as they fear if bond is given he will leave the country. One of the most fantastic ballooning projects of the past was that of an Austrian who suggested, nearly a century ago, that balloons might be guided in any desired direction with the aid of trained eagles,

A PLEA FORJREEDOM Editor Warren's Speech Before the Federal Court. INDICTMENT OF CAPITALISM. Despotism of Wealth Aided and Abetted by the Supreme Court Property Rights Buttressed by the Decisions of the Judiciary. Fred D. Warren, editor of the Appeal to Reason, was recently convicted of violation of the postal laws in the federal court at Fort Scott, Kan., presided over by Judge Pollock. Stating his reasons why sentence should not be pronounced. Mr. Warren said in part: I wish to call the attention of the court to the fact that this case is the outgrowth of the kidnaping of three workmen by the agents of the great mining corporations, with the connivance of the state officials of Idaho and Colorado. The kidnaping of these worklngmen was acquiesced in by the president and sanctioned by the supreme court of the United States. In referring to the manner in which these worklngmen were taken from their homes as kidnaping I wish It understood that no less distinguished a personage than Justice McKenna of the supreme court of the United States used this term in dissenting from the opinion of his associates. It was during the heat of this struggle between the Western Federation of Miners and the wealthy Mine Owners' association of the west that I conceived the Idea of offering a reward for ex-Governor Taylor, who. as was generally known, was a fugitive from justice from his home state of Kentucky and in biding in Indiana, protected from the service of requisition by the governor of Indiana, whose position was indorsed by Governor Roosevelt of New York and every prominent Republican politician and newspaper in the United States. Would the supreme court bold to its opinion that kidnaping was not a crime if the victim was a member of the Republican party and representative of the capitalist class? I did. not believe that the $1,000 offered by the Appeal would Induce any man to undertake tK sldudi.trv. Mr,. Tavlor. THEY MAKE YOU BELIEVE Because They Prove All They Claim. There is no room for doubt when so many people of good standing are anxious to tell their friends of the great good received from the use of Root Juice. At this point many have been cured or greatly benefitted of rheumatism, catarrh, indigestion, female weakness or some liver, kidney or stomach trouble, no wonder one friend is often heard advising another to try Root Juice. If you bloat and belch, if food lays heavily on the stomach and pains, if what you eat does not give-you strength. If you have swimming of the head, if you are nervous and your entire system is run down, if you are restless at night and feel as tired in the morning as yon did when you went to bed, be governed by the experience of others and go to Luken's drug store, get a bottle of Root Juice and take it exactly according to directions. We predict that before you have used one bottle yon will be advising your sick friends to get some of this wonderful medicine for Root Juice always proves all that is claimed for it. $1 a bottle, 3 bottles for $2.50 at A. G. Luken's drug store.
"BTt 1 Aid expect that the offer ot this reward in the manner and with the language used, would attract public attention to the kidnaping decision of the supreme court. 1 felt that if this decision, sanctioning the kidnaping of poor and defenseless workingmen by rich and powerful capitalists, was understood by the American people a wave of protest would sweep the country and force the supreme court to recede from Its position, as had been done before, notably in the famous Dred Scott decision, and will undoubtedly be done again. The supreme court has become In fact the reigning monarch of the American people. No measure of relief demanded by the voters of this nation enacted into law by their elect
ed representatives and. signed by the president may become operative with out its Judicial sanction. At the command of the lords of privilege any obnoxious law is promptly declared unconstitutional The supreme court of the United States has today more real power over the people than Is vested in any mon arch of the old world. The late Senator Hanna boasted that the courts are maintained to buttress property rights. Ex-President Roosevelt denounced a federal Judge for his interpretation of the law in the government's prosecution of the beef mist In conclusion permit me to say that I am not asking the mercy or leniency of this court. I have committed no crime, and there is festering in my conscience no accusation of guilt, but If my conviction and punishment will serve to rivet public attention upon the abuses which I have tried to point out then I shall feel that I have not suffered this humiliation in vain. After all, this is the price of human progress. Why should I expect Immunity? The courts have ever been and are today the bulwarks of the ruling class. Why should they not punish offenders against that class? In feudal slavery the courts sustained the feudal lords, in chattel slavery they protected, the slave owners, and In wage slavery they defend the lndnstrla masters. ; Whoever protests for the sake of Justice or in the name of the future Is an enemy of society and Is persecuted or put to death. In one of the most eloquent characterizations of history Charles Sumner, tracing the march of the centuries, pointed out that the most infamous crimes against the liberty and progress of the human race had been sanctioned by the so cslled courts of justice. This case Is a mere Incident in the mighty straggle of tne masses for emancipation. . Slowly, painfully, proceeds the struggle of man against the power of Mammon. The past is written In tears and blood. The future is dim and unknown, but the final outcome of this worldwide struggle is not In doubt. Freedom will conquer slavery, truth will prevail over error, justice will triumph over injustice, the Jlgbt win vanquish the darkness, and humanity, disenthralled, will rise resplendent In the glory of universal brotherhood. i Labor Disputes In England.

Baked Leaves Are Unkiwwn In Many Parts of the WorU. Baked loaves of bread are practically unknown in maay parts of Seuth Austria and Italy, as well as the agricultural districts of Renssania. In the villages of the Obersteirmark, not very many miles from Vienna, bread is seldom seen, the staple food of tbe people being sterz. a kind of porridge made from ground beechnuts, which is taken at breakfast with fresh or curdled milk, at dinner with broth or fried in lard and with milk again at supper. This sterz is also known as helden and takes tbe place of bread not only in Steiermark, but in Carynthia and la many parts of the Tyrol. In tbe north of Italy the peasantry live chiefly on poleuta, a porridge made of boiled maize. The polenta, bowever, is not allowed to granulate like Scotch porridge, or like the Austrian sterz, but is boiled into a solid pudding, which is cut up and portioned out with a string. It is eaten cold as often as It is hot and is in every sense the Italian peasant's daily bread. The modren Roumanians are held by many scholars to be descended from a Roman colony in other words, to be tbe cousins of the Italians and, curiously enough, a variation of tbe polenta, called mamaliga. Is tbe national dish of Roumanla. The mamaliga Is like the polenta In that it is made of boiled maize, but it Is unlike the latter in one important respect, as tbe grains are not allowed to settle Into a solid mass, but are kept distinct, after the fashion of oatmeal porridge. Bakers' Weekly. GAME OF WONDERMENT. When Played With Skill It Proves Very Mystifying. It is necessary that only two of the party should have a knowledge of this game and then real "wonderment" is sure to be the result. The two players agree that a certain word shall be regarded as a signal word. As an illustration, imagine this word to be "and." One of the players asserts his belief that be is gifted with second sight and states that be Is able, through a closed door, to asms any article touched by any person In sympathy with him. notwithstanding that the same person may attempt to mystify htm by mentioning a lot of other article. He then chooses his confederate as being one with whom he may be In sympathy and goes outside. The player In tbe room then proceeds to call out perhaps as follows: Table, hearthrug, piano, footstool "and" chair, lamp, inkstand. He then places his hand on the back of a cbalr and asks: "What am I touching now? Tbe answer will of -Course be, "Chair." because tbe signal word "and" came immediately before that article. If the players are skillful there Is no need for the trick to be discovered. Deceiving the Eye. "I saw It with ray own eyes," you often hear some one exclaim as if that proved it But it doesn't always prove it. for it Is perfectly easy to deceive the sight Take a sheet of paper and roll It up Into a cornucopia. Then bold the big end to your right eye and BZXIlfa THBOOOH TOVB rtXGKB. hold up one finger near the little end. but an inch or so to the left of it and by keeping both eyes open you will seem to see right through the finger, the sensation being that there is a hole cut right through it This is because while the left eye sees the finger the right one Is shut off from seeing it by tbe cornucopia, and thus the) combined triage is that of a finger with an opening through it PENNSYLVANIA LINES SUNDAY OUTINGS .
