Opening Address.
Ifa'-tfnrri. Conn.. Oct. 2fl. The thirty
third annual convt-ntion of the Xational
Woman's Christian Temperance union
opened here today. Mrs. Lillian M. N.
Stevens, of Pnrtlaml, Jle., presided and
more than 4 SO delegates from all parts
of The United States were present, in-
iudingt some from Austria, Japan, Eng
land, (ireeee and other countries.
The address of President Lillian M. X.
ftevens follows:
"We warmly welcome to this thirty
third convention of the National Wo
men's Christian Temperance union our
Tvhite ribbon comrades from other lands
and other climes. We know you will
.ho an inspiring presence in our conven
tion and we humbly trust that In some
degree, in some way, the convention
may be helpful to you. Our Star Span
gled Banner is dearer to us today be
cause mingled with its folds are the
fiags of other countries countries close
ly bound to ours in the comradeship of
sacred work.
"The Women's Christian Temperance
union is organized in ten thousand lo
calities In our nation; and in three hun
dred thousand homes the white ribbon
is worn over hearts loyal and true.
"Probably no member of this conven
tion is fully satisfied with the results
of the year's work for the advancement
of moral measures, and yet no former
year has marked greater progress. The
people more widely than ever before
know what alcohol is. We can hardly
enumerate the many ways in which
the knowledse has been acquired. Scien
tific research, religious conviction and
business interests are bringinar forth
reasons for total abstinence which com
pel attention and action. The reitera
tion that alcohol is a poison and not a
food has forced the study of the liquor
question upon many who heretofore
have been unmindful, if not altogether
unbelieving, and the careful unpreju
diced student of the question can not
fail to be in sympathy with fhe W. C.
T. T". in its' manifold efforts to have the
neople understand what alcohol is and
does.
"The liquor trade is a mighty monop
oly compared -with which every other
monopoly fades Into insignificance: but
the bulwarks of the trade are constant
ly being weakened. A widespread call
for a new sort of morality in public of
ficials has been heard in many states;
and in the nation at large the idea has
been emphasized that large corporations
and men of greatest wealth are not ex
empt from the requirements of the peo
ple's laws 1n the people's courts. The
liquor trade Is not only sustained by
avarice but by an appetite more in-

satiate than that of a miser an appe
tite which vnconsciously sways or con
trols the action of the mtn who is count
ed among those never known to drink
to excess. Notwithstanding all this, the
saloon more than ever before. Is re
garded with disfavor by respectable
people.
"Sooner or later every well-meaning
person who gives any attention what
ever to the liquor problem, if he is cap
able of sane reasoning, will come to see
the fallacy and the wickedness of any
form of license as applied to the sale of
liquor for beverage purposes.
"A candid review and fair compari
son of conditions before and after th3
abolition of the liquor canteen make a
good showing as a whole in favor of
the present system. The oft repeated
statements, that low dives and drinking
places develop in the vicinity of mili
tary poets because of the abolishment
of liquor selling in the canteen, is dis
proved on authority of such officers as
Colonel Ray of Kentucky, and Major
Nave of California and by the honest
investigators of the real conditions.
"During the last year there has been
unusual interest displayed concerning
the internal revenue system, and it is
to be hoped that this interest will
strengthen and deepen until the day of
national prohibition, when in every
state the manufacture and sale of alco
holic beverages is outlawed: and then
there can be no liquor revenue with
which to enrich the coffers of Uncle
Sam's treasury.
'Oeneral satisfaction seems to pre
vail over the passage by congress of
the denaturized alcohol bill. It could
hardly be otherwise, for most temper
ance people would be glad to have the
revenue tax .removed from all intoxicat
ing liquors and to have such liquors
denaturized.
"The bill prohibiting the sale of li
quor in all government buildings, parlo.
reservations and ships met with unex
pected favor from some sources, and
there is a reasonable hope that it will
pass at the next session of congress.
" We have reason to be glad that the
public demand for national legislation
bearing upon the character and qual
ities of foods sold ir market has se
cured the passage of the pure food
bill. Twenty-five states now have
,'ood inspection laws, and since the
developments of the last year the peo
ple have been and are fully aroused to
the importance of having adequate
national legislation, and they welcome
the new congressional law- which cer
tainly is needed to check fraudulent
and unwholesome practices.
"The attitude of the Women s Chris
tian Temperance union on the question
of Mormonism is well understood, not
only by all members and friends of
the organization, but by the public at
large. The Smoot investigation has
furnished fruit to justify a movement
that will make polygamy an offense
against rhe United States; an offense
that can be dealt with In the United
States courts hence it is plainly our
duty to favor and to work for a na
tional constitutional amendment.
"No one capable of reading and un
derstanding need be ignorant of the
dangerous character of cocaine and
absinthe, and we should be alert to
prevent their sale by those who, for
financial gain, do not hesitate to dis
pense these poisons. These dealers
are near relatives to the liquor sellers
in fact, they are often one and the
same.
"If all the money wasted for strong
drink were spent to provide good
homes and home comforts the child
labor problem would much more
easily be solved. This is true to a
great extent of the labor problem in
its broader sense.
"This has been a year of remark
able "W. C. T. TJ. activity. In every
state there has been a victory along
some line of march.
"Woman was never more truly a
homekeeper than she Is today, but her
concept of the sphere of home has
broadened irameastireably. There is a
recognized link between the good
home and civic righteousness, good
schools, good churches and good busi
ness houses, and there are manifold in
dications that in the movement to se
cure woman's influence in government,
and 'In the tangled business of the
world' there is an accelerated progress."
Lynched by Cowboys.
Roswell, N. M., Oct. 28. "Slab" Bitts,
a negro.who was run out of town two
weeks ago after serving 90 days for vio
lation of the Edmunds act, was lyncheJ
by cowboys at Toyah, Tex. The acces
sory, a white woman, followed the negro
to Toyah, and they were living together.
The cowboys went in the night and
placed a rope around the neck of the
negro. He was aragged to death and
then hanged.

NORTON GROWING FAST.
A City With 20.000 Population Is Pre
dicted for It.
Norton, Kan., Oct. 26. Out on the
western prairies half way between
Kansas City and Denver the thriving
little city of Norton, Kansas, shows ex
cellent prospects of making a city of
twenty thousand people. At present five
large brick store buildings, a large brick
bank building for the new Norton Na
tional bank, the third bank of the town,
and the new brick plant of the Star
Bottling works, a building 60x40, two
stories high, are all under course of con
struction. Plans for at least a dozen
other brick business houses are already
in the hands of the architects.
Among other new industries that are
figuring on locating here are a large
wholesale produce company, a washing
machine factory, a cigar factory, a
candy factory, a wholesale commission
house, a stock foo4 . concern, a paint
factory, a packing house, and numerous
branch concerns. 5
It is almost certain that both the
Gulf. Flainville & .irthern, and the
Omsha & Denver short line will build
through Norton next year, giving the
town four main lines of railway and
excellent distributing .facilities.
The town already has a population of
?3.orif) and will more than double in the
next six months. Parkview addition,
covering 120 acres southeast of town,
was entirely sold out last month, and
what two months ago was a pasture is
rapidly becoming one of the most thick
ly populated suburbs of the town. Three
other additions covering 100 to 200 acres
each, south and west of the city, will
be closed out before January 1. Next
year will see two new school buildings,
a ne.w opera house, city hall, and miles
of new cement sidewalk.
The tireless enterprise of the town in
the last two years has added the follow

Catarrh of tfcs Stomach
A Pleasant, Simple, But Safe and
Effectual Cure for It.
COSTS NOTHING TO TRY.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to incurable.
The usual symptoms are a full or bloat
ing sensation after eating, accom
panied sometimes with sour or watery
risings, a formation of gases, causing
pressure on the heart and lungs and
difficult breathing, headaches, fickle ap
petite, nervousness and a general
played out, languid feeling.
There is often a foul taste in. the
mouth, coated tongue and if the in
terior of the stomach could be seen it
would show a slimy, inflamed condi
tion. The cure for this common and obsti
nate trouble is found in a treatment
which causes the food to be readily,
thoroughly digested before it has time
to ferment and Irritate the delicate
mucous surfaces of the stomach. To
secure a prompt and healthy diyastion
is the one necessary thing to do and
when normal digestion is secured the
catarrhal condition will have disap
peared. According to Dr. Harlanson, the saf
est and best treatment is to use after
each meal a tablet, composed of Dias
tase, Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux,
olden Seal and fruit acids. These
tablets can now be found at all drug
stores under the name of Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets and not being a patent
medicine can be used with perfect
safety and assurance that healthy ap
petite and thorough digestion wiil fol
low their regular use after meals.
Mr. R. S. Workman, Chicago, Ills.,
writes: "Catarrh is a local condition
resulting from a neglected cold in the
head, whereby the lining membrane of
the nose becomes inflamed and tne
poisonous discharge therefrom passing
backward into the throat reaches the
stomach, thus producing catarrh of the
stomach. Medical authorities pre
scribed for me for three years for ca
tarrh of stomach without cure, but to
day I am the happiest of men after
using only one box of Stuart's Dyspep
sia Tablets. I cannot find appropriate
words to express my good feeling, l
have found flesh, appetite and sound
res from their use."
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Is the
safest preparation as well as the sim
plest and most convenient remedy for
any form of indigestion, Catarrh of
stomach, biliousness, sour stomach,
heartburn ana bloating alter meals.
