The merchants of Cnero have

project on foot to spend in

a lesson in this for our merch-

Ridoley of Kansas has intro-
duced a bill into Congress, pre-
pared by the American Federa-
tion ofT>abor, for the abolition
of government by injunction.
The bill provides that no agree-
ment to do or not to do anv-
thing in a labor dispute, or
“j ^rike, shah be deemed criminal
unless the same action yvould be
. *
criminal if done by an individual,
^latiyally the bill is opposed and
misrepresented by the republican

On the important subject of j

hizingrt-he pitfalls in the way of}
anyuegislatioh on the subject, j
took up the question from a le- |
gal and practical standpoint and
prepared a.bib which is now gen-
era jly conceded • to be the best
yet introduced iri congress. He
followed it with a speech in
which he reviewed all the decis-
ions of the Tinted States su-

ject, and succeeded in winning
to its support every democrat

republican caucus but has been

. someone comes or goes that the
reporter does not see! It hap-

“JUST DRAGGING AROUND.”
How many thousands
of women understand
the sad and pitiful
meaning of that simple
phrase: ” Just dragging
around/’
Women every-
where who
feel that they
have a work
and a mission
« of woman-
. hood to ?. ac-
y'. complish in
this world will ap-
preciate instantly
the disheartened
spirit Of Mrs. Mattie
Venhans, of Tioga,
Hancock County, Illinois.
**I bad been sick for seven years,” she says;
**aot in bed, but just dragging myself around.
At last I took three bottles of Dt. Pierce’s Fa-
vorite Prescription and five of ‘ Golden Medical
Waco very, and it is impossible to describe in
wards the jrood these medicine* did me. My
lraaband says ‘ Golden Medical Discovery ’ is the
best mediahe he ever tried fbr a cough. No
praise is too high fbr Dr. Pierce's medicines.’’
Another lady. Mrs. R. 9. Monfort, of Lebanon,
Warren Co.. Ohio, says, ” I think Dr. yierce's
Golden Medical Discovery the finest medicine
cm record. I have taken a number of bottles
and'- it is tbe only medicine that relieved my
terrible headaches ” ,
Women who suffer should Write to Dr.
R. V. Pierce, <?f Buffalo, N. Y. He will send
them the best professional advice that can
be had anywhere in America and entirely
without charge. Neither tbe "Golden
Medical Discovery” nor the "Favorite
Prescription ” contains any alcohol to in-
ebriate or create a morbid craving for
Stimulants.
Every woman should own a copy of bis
splendid book "The Common Sense Sedi-
cwl Adviser.” It is the grandest medical
book for popular reading ever written. It
Contains a fond of knowledge of precious
value to women. It has over a thou sand-
elaborately illustrated with engrav-
and colored plates. The first great
ion of more than half-»-million copies
was sold at $1.50 each. The profit from this
! induced Dr. Pierce to carry out his cher-
ished Intention of issuing a free edition one
'copy of which in paper-covers will be sent
far the bare cost of mailing, 21 one-cent

7--cMoulton Eagle. ' . ;
Messrs jakifka, Janek- and
Kainer have gotten back from
Mexico. , They are not very loud
in their praise of what _they saw
and especially ' the ‘bull fig'hts.
Mr. Jalufka says he had rather
not 8^? it again. He and Mi*.
Janek each brought back h pair
of yellow headed parrots.
Mr. Chas, Michna of Yoakum,
has joined Mr. Michna in the
.photograph business here, and
they are now traveling over the
country taking orders for JJhp-
tos. .'t'hey import having met
with splendid business.
Mr, r. Wrimglor ohr black-
smith went to Schulenburg one
,dav this week, to get some; ma-
terial and coal for his ever rush-
ing business.
Mr. Tal Reaves, of Hackberry,
was visiting his sister, Mrs. Dr.
Clark of this city, a few days last
week, J n - ,
The cold rain that has just fal-
len some say wall benefit corn
. that is planted, others say that
it is a disadvantage qs it will
tend to rot the seed in the
ground. ■.,Y ';: V ;
Politics in this bailiwick prom-
ises to Dew arm before long, es-
pecially in the race for. justice of
the peace. There are already 3
avowed candidates, * Mr. Jim
Jalufka, Prof. Rabb and Prof.
Kubala, the present incumbent,
each of which is sure of election if
your scribe don’t run;, then it
would be different. We haven’t
decided \whether we will sit idly
by and see them scramble for the
plum, or.put an end to it by an-
nouncing our candidacy/.
•. Mr. Pesek passed through Mo-
ravia on his way to Halletsviile
Monday. We notice that he is
again a candidate for Assessor.
We have only known him a very
short’ while, but , from inquiry,
learn that Jic has made a splen-
did officer, and as he is from
these parts, we would like very
much to see him re-elected.
‘‘Comflanzen” is the Word now
and unless you are in that, kind
of business you are not in it
around Moravia. Spine few have
planted ^otton, but we think |ier-
liaps some few will plant, cotton
the second time.
Mr Frank Janek is rustling
yearlings now and payinga good
price too. • He is buying for, Mr.
F(L Itoos of Voaknm. . X. X.
