WASHINGTON DID NOT
APPROPRIATE FOR FIGHT.
Anotiicr club woman, Mrs.
Haulc, of Edgerton, Wis., tells
how she was cured of irregulari
t;es and uterine trouble, terrible
pains and backache by Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
"A while ago my health began to
fall because of female troubles. The
doctor did not help inc. I remembered
that my mother had used Lyrtin 12.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
on many occasions for irregularities
and uterine troubles, and I felt sure
that it could not harm me at any rate
to give it a trial.
"I was certainly glad to find that
within a week I felt much better, the
terrible pains in my back and sides
were beginning to cease, and at the
time of menstruation I did not have
nearly as serious a time as hereto
fore, so I continued its use for two
months, and at the end of that time I
vraa like a new woman. I really have
never felt better in my life, have not
had a sick headache since, and weigh
20 pounds more than I ever did, so I
unhesitatingly recommend Vegetable
Compound." Mns. May IIaule, Ed

Merger Cases Must Go By Default on
Account of Lack of Funds State
Was Asked for $10,000 to Continue
the Fight.
Seattle, March 19. Owing to the
rerusal of the state legislature to
sanction the continued prosecution of
the suit of the state against the
Northern Securities Company, uj" re
fnaliiP tn ninko an nnnronrlation of
$10,000, as recommded by Govornor
McHriclo in his first message, the fu
ture of the ramous "merger" suit, as
it is known, is purely problematical.
Attorney-General Stratton, who in
stituted the suit, was in the city yes
terday, and in an interview stated
that he was not prepared to make any
statement regarding the future of
the suit.
Its present status, he said, was that
the matter is now at issue before the
' courts on noints of facts and law.
The last pleading filed was a replica
tion on the part of the state, and the
next move made, if the suit is con
I Hmioil 1H lio ! f.ilHn! nf testi
mony. To a query as to whether the
suit would be abandoned owing to a
lack of funds to continue its prosecu
tion, Mr, Stratton said that while cer
tain plans might have been discussed
concerning it, he must decline to
make any further statement at this
time.
During the last session of the leg
islature two bills were introduced in
the house providing for an appropria
tion of $10,000 to cover the cost of
the merger suit, as recommended by
the governor in Ills message. One of
these bills was introduced by Repre
sentative J. B. Howard of Lincoln
county, representing the republican
side of the house, and the other by
Representative Mackenzie of Whit
man county, a democrat.
The bills were referred to the joint
appropriation committee for recom
mendation, and were defeated and
later recommended for indefinite post
ponement. On the last day of the session Sen
ator Warmurton, of Pierce county,
offered an amendment to the general
appropriation covering the $10,000 for
the purpose stated .which was also
defeated on roll call. The sentiment
of house and senate alike appeared to i
be against the appropriation, as evi
denced by the several unsuccessful
attempts to enact legislation em
bracing the subject.
