There is nothing like Asthmalene. It
brings instant relief, even in the worst
cases. It cures when ad eise fails.
The Rev. C. F. WELLo, of Villa
Ridge, Ill., says: “Your trial bottle of
Asthmalene received in good condition.
I can not tell you how thankful I feel
for the good derived from it. I was a
slave, chained with putrid sore throat
and Asthma for ten years. I despaired
of ever being cured. I saw your ad-
vertisement for the cure of this dread-
ful and tormenting disease, Asthma,
and thought you had overspoken your-
selves, but resolved to give it a trial.
To my astonishment, the trial acted
like a charm. Send me a full-size

Dr. Taft Bros.’‘ Medicine Co.,
Gentlemen: I write this testimonial from a sense of duty, having tested
the wonderful effect of your Asthmalene, for the cure of Astnma. My wife
has been afflicted with spasmodic asthma for the past 12 years. Having ex-
hausted my own skill as well as many others, I chanced to see your sign upon
your windows on 130th street, New York. I at once obtained a bottle of Asth-
malene. My wife commenced taking it about the first of November. I. very
soon noticed a radical improvement. After taking one bottle her Asthma has
disappeared and she is entirely free from all symptoms. I feel that I can
consistently recommend the medicine to all who are afflicted with this dis-
tressing disease. Yours respectfully, O. D. PHELPS, M. D.
Dr. Taft Bros.’ Medicine Co., . Feb. 5, 1901.
Gentlemen: I was troubled with Asthma for 22 years. I have tried numer-
ous remedies, but they have all failed. I ran across your advertisement and
started with a trial bottle. I found relief at once. I have since purchased your
fud-size bottle, and am ever grateful. I have family of four children, and for
six years was unable to work. I am now in the best of health and am doing
business every day. This testimony you can make such use of as you see fit.

Apathy, thoughtfulness, non-attend-
ance at meetings, unkind remarks about
your brother, and utter disregard for
the rules of your organization, have
been the cause of disruption among
many a labor union. A true trade
unionist needs no guard, needs no one
to tell him where his duty lies. There
is no man in the organization but what
wants to see it live, grow and prosper.
This will come about if we, each and
every one, do their part.
When you use goods that do not bear
the label, you are encouraging the em-
ployment of men, girls and women at
starvation wages—wages often, and
generally, so low in the case of women
that prostitution is a necessary ad-
junct to work in order to get money
enough to live on.

Educate the children has been the
motto of the American people since the
formation of this grand republic. This
motto has been the means of making
good men and women of every true

now take up the cry and educate their
children in true trade unionism. Tell

what the clothing firm told them.
We don’t believe an honest man in
America, who knows the law, will say
for a moment that this law, or contend
that the order of Judge Kohlsaat will
stand the test of a hearing before an
honest court. Why, then, was it grant-
ed? Because, in the natural course of
the administration of the law, a hear-
ing could not be had, and the iniquity
of the order shown to the court under
several weeks, and in the meantime
(the Union men being bound helpless
and unable to carry on the fight while
the company is as tree as ever to prose-
cute its fight) the wage contest is lost
to the workingmen. And after the
wage contest is lost the clothing com-

The City Commissioners have passed

GOVERNMENT BY INJUNCTION.
The latter day practice of governing
by injunction reached its climax in an
injunction issued last week by Judge
Kohlsaat oi Chicago. It seems that a
clothing firm in that city has refused
to allow members of the Garment
Makers union to work for it. This it
had a right to do. But it next applied
to Judge Kohlsaat for an order forbid-
ding any member of the Union telling
anybody else what it had done. In

An organ of the trusts, in speaking
of one of them, makes the following
statement:
“The trust, with its enlarged scope,
will now, it is thought, be able to gov-
ern the market and control wages.”
There is no doubt whatever that the
trusts will soon “control the wages” of
the workmen at all trades if the wage-
workers submit to their control.
The first movement of the trusts is
to break up the unions of the trades,
thus preventing their “hired hands”
from taking concerted actin in any
case. If the unions were broken up,
the trusts would be able to do as they
pleased about controlling wages. It is
true that the trusts might have gay
times for awhile, and their leaders could
go out yachting and stay out as long as
the champagne lasted.
Those members of the carpenter
trade who feel that no trust can ever
control their trade, or their wages, had
better ask the trusts to tell about their
doings last year, and the present year.
Ask them at the same time, what
they think of workingmen’s union, and
now they would go about the business
of fixing the wages of carpenters.
But if the trusts swaggers too much,
they will have rough times by-and-by,
sure and certain.
Isn’t it rather premature to be plan-
ning for paving in Galveston at this
time? We need paving, goodness
knows, and we must have it in due
course. But it can not be very many
report plans for the protection of the
city from overflow. Those plans may
involve raising the grade of certain
streets even north of Broadway. In
that case it might be necessary to undo
much expensive work.
It is not long that we have to wait
for the engineering plans, and it occurs
to the Tribune as the wiser course to
delay all street improvements until
that time. If the engineers are to do
anything they are to devise a plan
of permanent protection, not an ex-
pedient for a season, but a system for
all time. No one, not even resident en-
gineers, knows what plans the board
will present, but whatever plans are
presented will be the plans to work to,
and every private and public improve-
ment must conform to them if we are
to achieve practical results.—Tribune.
Right. Galveston does not need
paving now; she needs raising. What
money there is available for paving
purposes had much better be used for
filling and permament protection to our
citizens. Let us not forget for one mo-
ment how high that water came from
thte Gulf, or how many lives might
have been saved, had the grade of the
city been ten feet, or even seven feet,
higher. The City Commission, we all
know, has a hard task before it, and
even if it does its work well, there will
be enough condemnation. But The
Journal believes that paving any street
in the city at this time would be un-
wise and unjust, when the money, even
a small amount, could be used to build
some kind of protection from future
overflows that may or may not come.
We want first to secure the confidence
of our home people against such an-
other calamity, • and then the outside
world to know that we are at least do-
ing something for our protection. Brick
paving on Tremont Street, or any other
street, will not prevent an overfloow,
and, although it may look nice, it will
take money that we need so badly for
protection from the waters of the Gulf.

so much in the way of scientific dis-
covery, of educational progress, of
practical philanthropy, of improve-
ment in the means of living, of ad-
ditions to the comforts of life, and in
many other ways—seems to hold out
no prospect of permament industrial
peace. Great as the prosperity of the
country is, it is materially lessened and
retarded by the perpetual war between
capital and labor, and by the efforts
of each, through combination and or-
ganization, to get advantage over the
other.- It is time these two great in-
terests should stop warring. Their
continued hostility is not only unnat-
ural, but is a menace to law and order
and to the welfare of the country.
The leaders on obth sides are wrong in
adhering to stubborn and uncomprom-
ising methoas. They are wrong in ad-
hering to selfish policies. They should
get out of the unnatural attitude of
hostility into which they have worked
themselves. Their interests are identi-
cal, and if they would deal justly and
fairly with each other, the chronic war
between them would end. We need in-
dustrial .peace, not merely as an indis-
pensable requisite for complete nation-
al prosperity, but as a safeguard
against other evils. If present condi-
tions continue, they will grow worse,
and perpetual war between labor and
capital may lead to war of another
kind—Indianapolis Journal.
