To Whom It May Concern
Perhaps, it is not necessary to
state that we own and control THK
ENTKRPRISK; that we are independ
ent in thought and action; that we
are not the puppets of ativ class or
faction; that, as far as possible, we
shall give the news which does ar.d
ought to concern the public g*:o:l,
treatiug all alike in reporting acts
of fraud, corruption and vice. To
us there is no privileged few, but
we si all riot concern ourselves
about the private affairs of private
individuals. Crime which has been
uncovered to the public gaze, isj
news aud as such we shall give it. i
We stand for honesty in public
aud private life; for a nobler man
hood and womanhood; we have no
shield for those who outrage the
laws of the State and society. If
we condemn wrong doing, we have
not failed in our mission. But for the
fear of publicity by the riewspapen.
ot the country, crime would be a
thousand times more prevalent, and
the lives and property of our peo
ple would be greatly eudanijed.
The individual or newspaper that
would cover crime and desire it to
go unpunished, is hurting the com
munity in which the crime has beeu
committed. There is and always
•hould be pity for the wrong-doer,
but never any bucket of white
wash for the act.

chances are that you will be so
weakened by its after-effects that
you will be laid up for two or three

We have a perfect sub
stitute for calomel right heie in our
store, that we can fully guarantee
to cure constipation and liven up
the liver just as quickly a» calomel,
but without any of the bad after
effects of calomel. The name oi
this tonic is Dodson's Liver-Tone.
It is a pleasant tasting vegetable
tonic that mildly stimulates the
liver and causes it to work just
right to cleanre the body without
any danger of salivation. Wheu
you try it if you do not say that it
is t perfect substitute for calomel,

Simmons not Progressive
The Commoner does not take

He is not a progressive and it is a
