Ju'iM 3. 1906
la Effect January I, 1907
A GOOD LAW
. , . . . STITUTES made of adul-
1 terated, impure, worthless and even dangerous drug.
. "Thi? sort of thing: has been an imposition, fraud and crime
: against the People, as well as against , the responsible manu
facturers of honest, reliable remedies, and it was high time for
V it' to be stopped. Misrepresentation and substitution of "some,
thing: just as good" will now be done away with.' r k
' The principles of the Food and Drugs Act have been always ,
favored by conscientious, and honorable manufacturers, who
recognized that Purity and Quality alone could permanently
secure the favor of the nation. ',':;; .-''.
' ' So the makers of Cascarets Candy Cathartic recognised the great principle-
of PURITY, QUALITY and MEDICINAL MERIT when the first
tablet was made, over eleven years ago, and have adhered to them ever
,since. , ' ; .,'.'- ....
Cascarets .'stand alone on their record, of having gained in that short
period of time the friendship, confidence and patronage of millions of
people, who are now buying Cascarets at the rata of over a MILLION
BOXES A MONTH, the largest ssle of any Bowel Medicine in all the
world. , "
We endorse the Pure Drug Law.
It suits -pv because we have always stood before our friends unafraid
' and 'clear of 'conscience, made our contracts good so every one, and in the
conduct of our business, had the good fortune to help hundreds of thou
sands f our feflaw-citixena back to health aad life.
We have no reason to hesitate, and so we do not hesitate, to recom
mend Cascarets to all sufferers from Constipation and all complications
. .4riaing therefrom. Also any other diseases of the food-canaL We are. ad
7ertisc4 by our loving friends and whenever the American people, pass judg
ment in favor of an article after over ten years of investigation, trial and
test, their verdict speaks for itself.
-The greatest merit of Cascarets however, is thst of being a positive
, and reliable preventive of disease. The most important function of the
human, body is to. keep, its digestive channels and passages, with over thirty
six: feet of bowela, strictly clean and disinfected, so that natural operations
csn take plaoe io a natural manner, and the growth and activity of disease
farms can b prevented.
A Csscaret at night before "turning in" .will keep your Bowels regular,
and your, whole, digestive canal wholesome, pure and normally active.
No matter what you have been tsking, buy a little. I Or. box TODAY

Report of Encireer Rented,
SMITH INSISTS ON HEARING ALL OF IT
I'SdlsR Af l.liiht, (Vmri to the Relief
of Members and Conacll Adjourns
I ntll Thin Afternoon to
Complete Task.
For two hours Inst nlrht the city council.
In session as a committee of the whole,
sat and listened to Clerk Sapp read the re
port of Fxport Klersted on the -water
works. When the elpctrlc lights, suddenly
went out a few minutes before 10 o'clock,
whether .by accident or through the con
nivance of one of the councllmen who was
getting'tlred, a motion to adjourn to this
evening- prevailed, despite the assertion of
f 'onncllman Wnllare that he was willing
to stay -until 2 a. hi. fo complete the reading
of the report. At adjournment Clork Sapp
had succeeded In - reading somethln-g less
than one-half of the bulky document.
Wlien . Mr, SApp completed reading the
general report and started on the ap
pendix" several of the councllmen thought
they had hfard enmigh, but Councilman
I'oter Smltli would not be contetA 'unless
the entire report, appendix and all, was
road.. and he carried the day. ,
"I move that we cut out the appendix."
i xclnlnied Councilman Younkerrnan. To
which one of the councllmen replied: "We
can't lo that very well, seeing that Mayor
Macrae Ik not present, ernd he Is. the only
one who understands cutting out an ap
pendix." Councilman Wallace Insisted that It was
all "tomfoolery" to read all the details
of the report, -Including the length and
price of pipe, etc.
"Well., what did Mr. Klersted write all
Urf for If It. Is tomfoolery?" queried
Councilman Smith. . "You've seen all of the
report, but we have not, and there is no
reason why we should not hear It all now,
seeing that the city paid $1,0 for It."
Councilman Knudsen ventured to state
1.1- fr..m hW Wth kanl fiuri . '
v ltrv - i itiiu Muni "i. .. - -
perTe.ct right to have tne wnoie repon
read, and thtr prompted Councilman Wal
lace to turn upon. Councilman Knudscn and
remind him that he at the meetings of
the special committee .was agalnBt. giving
out the report to the public.
As soon as the councilman from the
Fourth bailiwick could get his breath he
replied to the chairman of the special com
mittee, saying: "That Is not so. I only
wanted the report' tield back from the
public until It was given to the other mem
bers of the. council." , - v .. - - , -, .
Finally Councilman' Smith's Insistence
that, the -whole report, appendix, details and
all, should be read carried the. day and
Clerk Sapp resumed his monotonous task
of reading until the lights went out, when
wjth a hasty' motion to adjourn the coun-i-lhnen
made ft scramble for their, hats,
overcoats and. overshoes. - -
The- council Is scheduled for a session
this afternoon. But as no action can be

Special Counsel C. M. Harl and County
Attorney Hess have returned from Colorado
Springs, where they went to examine the
books of the Portland Oold Mining com
pany and to take depositions as to the hold
ings of the stockholders In that corpora
tion, : which Pottawattamie county Is en
deavoring to assess for taxation, and are
much pleased with the result of their In
vestigations. The result of the examination of the stock
lodgers and other books of the Portland
company was most satisfactory to the legal
representatives of the county and they an
nounced yesterday that they are now pre
pared for .the trial, which will probably
come up at this term of court, to determine
the Uubility of the corporation for taxes
In this county.
The examination of the books. County At
torney Hess stated yesterday, disclosed the
fact that there was absolutely no consid
eration for the transfer of the stock of
the Portland Uold Mining company as In
corporated in Iowa to the Portland com
pany as Incorporated In Wyoming, after
Pottawattamie county had brought suit
to collect taxes against it. The stock In
the Wyoming corporation was Issued to
A. Sutton, cashier of the ' First National
bank of Colorado Springs, In large blocks.
and by him exchanged for the stock of the
, Tpwa
Corporation. The examination by
County Attorney Hess and Mr. Harl have
developed the fact that there are between
900 and 1,000 holders of stock In the Port
land company. - -
'As1-one result of the Investigation, Pot
tawattamie county will move to set aside
the transfer of thn assets of the Iowa
corporation to'the Wyoming corporation.
Examination of the stock ledger of the
company revealed the fact that the. stock
of James F. Burns, former president of
the .company and probably the largest individual-stockholder,
was- held In several
names, some of which. It was admitted Were
fictitious. -
