Yours Truly,
of confidence for the reason that every
I reader knows we have stood for no-
I thing but what was the best for the
State and the people. We have tried
to make The Telegram something more
than an independent newspaper. It
' has been that, it has been outspoken
and plainspoken as well, but it has
likewise been peculiarly the represen
tative of the best thought and aspira
tion of the people. No paper in Ihe
state has taken such advanced moral
grounds and none has fought so con
sistently for what was right and de
cent.
It is on the principle that we have
done something to deserve it that we
ask you not only to take advantage of
the proposition we have to make you,
but to be kind enough to pass it along
to a friend or two with a recommend
ation to them to do likewise.
Once again we propose a special
Mail Order Day, for February 1, 1909.

Governor’s Message

(continued from Page One)
placed under one board of regents and
their report has been filed with the
governor. It will be found that there
is a great uniformity in the course of
study, and a better system in vogue in
these schools, under one board of re
gents, than was possible under a board i
of control for each. There is no ques
tion but that there is a necessity for
training schools for teachers for the
public schools of the state, and if these
training schools are to be maintained
they ought to be placed on a basis of
the highest efficiency. A majority of
the board of regents have reccommend-
e.l the continuance of the normal schools
at Monmouth, Ashland and Weston,
and have called attention to their needs
if they are to be continued.
I trust the legislature will at once
and for all settle the normal school
question, and probably the best way to
do it is to act upon the recommenda
tions of the regents and make provis
ions for maintaining three schools in
the state.

with its requirements without litigation

be done in the future than has been
done in the past.

time of war it is to a well-trained mili

In the very nature of things the stand

purpose of protection in times of pei.ee
and is a splendid factor for instruction
whenever it becomes necessary to call
the militia into service.

The Pure Food Law.
Secretary Wilson says: “One of the
objects of the law is to inform the
consumer of the presence of certain
harmful drugs in medicines.” The
law requires that the amonnt of chlo
roform, opium, morphine and other
habit forming drugs be stated on the
label of each bottle. The manufact
urers of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy
have always claimed that their remedy
did not contain any of these drugs,
and the truth of this claim is now fully
proven, as no mention of them is made
on the label. This remedy is not only
one of the safest, but one of the best
in use for coughs and colds. Its value
has been proven beyond question dur
ing the many years it has been in gen
eral use. For sale by City Drug Store.
