(From The Public.)
The Court of Appeals of New York
State on June 2 upheld the validity
of the impeachment proceedings of
Governor Sulzer.
or
WXWMAB.
Three of the largest trade unions
in England, the miners, the railway
men, and the transport workers have
decided to form a huge labor com
bination for self protection. This
will unite 1,350,000 well organized
workers. Among the articles of agree
ment it is provided that when one
body goes out on strike the others
will support it. All wage demands
will be presented simultaneously.
Former Senator Bourne, chairman
of the Commission on Railway Mail
Pay, presented a report to Congress
on June 4. The report condemns the
present system of paying the railroads
by weight for carrying of mails and
recommends that the basis of pay
ment be changed to space. The pro
posed change, it is estimated, will in
crease payment to railroads for mail
transportation from $51,000,000 to
$61,000,000.
Other features of the Clayton bill
are prohibition of arbitrary refusal to
sell mineral products prohibition of
contracts by which purchaser or IPS
see of goods is barred from dealing in
competing articles prohibition of in
erlocking directorates and control by
one corporation of a competing con
cern, and allowing decrees of federal
courts in suits brought by the gov
ernment to be used as conclusive evi
dence in private suits against the
same defendants.
Sir William Lever, one of the Eng
lish millionaires subject to the super
tax of the Lloyd George Budget, es
timates that a man with an income
from $5,000,000 would pay one-third
of it to the government. "I like it,'
he said. "In my view the ideal sys
tem of taxation, both local and imper
ial is through the income tax, the
supertax, death duties, land tax, site
value tax, and taxation upon luxuries,
such as alcohol, tobacco, etc. Every
thing else free."
The Covington bill establishes a
trade commission with great inqu'si
torial power but little else. All cor
porations of not less than $5,000,000
capital, other than common carriers,
must report to the Trade Commission,
which may, also require any corpor
ation of less capital to report. There
are to be three members of the Com
mission to serve for six years at a
salary of $10,000 a year each. The
Rayburn bill gives to the Interstate
Commerce Commission power to reg
ulate the issue of railroad stocks and
bonds.
The House Committee on the Dis
trict of Columbia voted on June 6 to
recommend favorably the bill of Re
presentative Crosser of Ohio provid
ing for municipal ownership of Wash
ington's street railroads. Of the 17
members of the committee present,
nine voted for the bill and eight op
posed. Three out of four absent ones
wrote or wired their approval. Op
position to the measure was voiced by
Ben Johnson of Kentucky, chairman
of the Committee, Winslow of Massa
chusetts and Caraway of Arkansas.
Crosser's success is said to be with
out precedent inasmuch as he is a
new member and has nevertheless se
cured a favorable report on a bitterly
contested measure from an import
ant committee, against the efforts of
its chairman.
Following the French election finals
'which left the Doumergue minority a
slender working majority In the
Chamber of Deputies, the Cabinet re
signed on the 3d. President Poincare
called upon a number of political lead
ers successively to form a new Cabi
net. Among those who have declined,
or who have failed in the attempt to
form a new ministry, are Jean Du
puy, a former premier, Rene Viviani,
Paul L. Peyral, and Theophile Del
casse. The venerable Senator Felix
Ribot, who ran against Poincare for
the presidency, is the latest to at
tempt the formation of a Cabinet.
This uncertainty as to the dominant
political force involves the two and
three-year military service, and in
directly influences the international
relations between France and Russia,
and France and Germany. The radi
cals, under Calllaux, and the Social
ists under the leadership of Jaures,
constituting th largest working force
in the new Chamber of Deputies, are
inclined toward the Kaiser, rather
than toward the Czar.
The House passed on June 5 the
three anti-trust measures, the Clay
ton bill, the Covington bill, and the
Rayburn bill. The vote on the Clay
ton bill was 275 to 54. All the Demo
cratic members, except White of Ohio
voted for it, together with 42 Repub
licans, sixteen Progressives and Wil
liam Kent. Before passage the bill
was amended. One amendment ex
empts labor and farmers' organiza
tions from prosecution as trusts.
Another forbids, in cases involving
labor disputes, issuing of injunctions
prohibiting "any person or persons
from terminating any relation of em
ployment or from ceasing to perform
any work or labor, or from recom
mending, advising, or persuading oth
ers by peaceful means so to do, or
from attending at or near a house or
place where any person resides or
works, or carries on business or hap
pens to be, for the purpose of peace
fully obtaining or communicating in
formation, or of peacefully persuading
any person to work or to abstain from
working or from ceasing to patronize
or to employ any party to such dispute
or from recommending, advising or
persuading others by peaceful means
so to do or from paying or giving
to or withholding from, any person
engaged in such dispute, any strike
benefits or other moneys, or things
of value, or from peacably assemb
ling at any place in a lawful manner,
and for lawful purposes or from doing
any act or thing which might law
fully be done in the absence of such
dispute by any party thereto." Anoth
er amendment allows persons
charged with indirect contempt a trial
by jury.

YOUNG PEOPLE OP NOR
VVEQIAN FREE CHURCH
Had 8plendid Convention at Benton
Last Week*
The annual convention of the
Young Peoples' Societies of the Will
mar District of the Lutheran Free
church, which was held in this city
Friday, Saturday and Sunday, June 5,
6 and 7, was the most successful and
enjoyable ever held by the District.
There were about 275 delegates from
outside towns in the District, and if
the weather and roads had been bet
ter at least two hundred more from
Willmar, Morris and Montevideo
would have come by auto to attend
the Sunday meetings.
On Friday forenoon the convention
was called to order by Rev. E. M.
Hanson, of New London, the president
of the District Rev. J. S. Strand, the
local pastor gave an address of wel
come. This was followed by an ex
cellent sermon by Rev. M. B. Mich
aelson of Willmar.
On Friday afternoon Rev. And. Ol
son of Morris, gave a clear outline of
the subject to be discussed during
the convention. The topic was taken
from the first book of Moses, 28th
chapter, 10 to 22 verses. The bal
ance of the afternoon was taken up
with the discussion.
On Friday evening a musical and
literary program was rendered by dif
ferent members of the various soci
eties. The program included songs,
recitations, readings, etc. The pro
gram was given in both English and
Norwegian, being about equally di
vided.
On Saturday forenoon the session
was devoted to the further discussion
of the convention topic and much in
terest was manifested in it.
On Saturday afternoon Rev. E O.
Larson, of Eagle Lake delivered a
very able address on "Social Condi
tions." On Saturday evening another
excellent literary and musical pro
gram was rendered in both English
and Norwegian.
On Sunday morning at 9 o'clock a
communion service was conducted by
Rev. J. S. Strand and Rev. Andrew
Olson At 10:30 services were con
ducted in the court house by Rev.
O. Hoyum, of Lake Lillian, and Rev
L. Pederson of Montevideo. In the
afternoon the discussion of the con
vention topic was resumed and con
eluded. The evening session was the
farewell session, in which all the vis
iting ministers participated.
At all the sessions the choirs of the
local society and those of the Monte
video, EaghV Lake and Willmar soci
eties gave some very fine singing,
both as individual choirs and as a un
ion choir. When they sang together
there were about sixty members,
which made a very fine choir and
they certainly gave a good account of
themselves.—Benson Monitor.

MAKES BACKACffi
A Few Dotes Retieres AH Such*
Miseries. BUdd«r Wenkneaa,
Kidney Trouble and Rhea- ..,
matism Promptly Vanish
It is no longer necessary for any
one to suffer with backaching, kid- I,
ney trouble, have disagreeable blad
der and urinary disorders to contend
with, or be tortured with rheuma
tism, stiff joints, and its heart
wrenching pains, for the new discov
ery, Croxone, quickly and surely re
lieves all such troubles.
Croxone is the most wonderful
remedy yet devised for ridding the
system of uric acid and driving out
all the poisonous impurities whifch
cause such troubles. It is entirely
different from all other remedies. It
is not like anything else ever used
for the purpose. It acts on the prin
ciple of cleaning out the poisons and
removing the cause.
It soaks right in through the walls,
membranes and linings, like water in
a sponge, neutralizes, dissolves, and
makes the kidneys sift out and filter
away, all the uric acid and poisons
from the blood, and leaves the kid
neys and urinary organs clean,
strong, healthy and well.
It matters not how long you have
suffered, how old you are, or what
you have used, the very principle of
Croxone is such, that it is practically
impossible to take it into the human
system without results. There is
nothing else on earth like it It
starts to work the minute you take it
and relieves you the first time you
use it.
If you suffer with pains in your
back and sides, or have any signs of
kidney, bladder troubles, or rheuma
tism, such as puffy swellings under
the eyes or in the feet and ankles, if
you are nervous, tired, and run down,
or bothered with urinary disorders,
Croxone will quickly relieve you of
your misery. You can secure an orig
inal package of Croxone at trifling
cost from any first-class druggist,
All druggists are authorized to ncf
onally return the purchase price it
ils iii a single case.
