TAFT 18 AN AVOWED CANDIDATE
That Was Battled at Conference Be-
tween Daneen and Rooaavelt
WASHINGTON: The pollUcal eon
ference between Pxealdent Itooaevelt
and Governor Deneen of Illinois has
definitely settled thre«. proposition*:
Flrat, that Roosevelt will under no
circumstances stand for a third term.
Second, that Taft Is an avowed can-
didate for the presidential nomination.
Third, that Roosevelt propose® to use
all his influence to land Taft.
In reply to the charge that Roose-
velt is trying to dictate his own suc-
cessor, It Is pointed out by a close
friend that he Is simply doing what
certain presidents in the past ha\e
tried to do, but failed.
No president has named his suc-
cessor. He has brought about his own
rentminatlon. but has never been able
to direct the party. In addition to
this, presidents who have attempted
to name their successors have been
"miffed" and "pouty," and the oppo-
sition has always patted them on the
back for support.
WILL SCRAMBLE FOR LAND
TMIUrC ftOVt MAO COMMA.
Discovery Near Cleveland Believed to
Be Forerunner of Big Find
TULSA: Following the discovery of
oil on the Meadows farm near Cleve-
land, Okla., there is a big scramble
for leases 1n that section of the coun-
try. Prominent operators from this
place are getting leases and available
land within a wide radius of the new-
est oil field in the new state will be
leased up in a little while.
The Meadows well gives evidence
of being a great producer and Is be-
lieved to be the forerunner of another
great oil pool. When drilled into
deep sand, oil operators predict it
will make from 750 to 1,000 barrels
daily of oil which has tested 42 grav-
ity, a high grade product.
The Big Wolf company, composed
of Wisconsin men, own the well and
lease.

SCIATIC TORTURE-
A Locomotive Engineer Telia How
He Waa Cured by Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills.
Pain that seems almost unbearable
is a characteristic of sciatic rheuma-
tism. In some cases the pain is
knife-like, saarp or shooting; in oth-
ers it is. dull and aching. Sciatica
is stubborn in resisting treatment and
the patient frequently suffers for
years. This was the case with Mr.
Herbert E. Spaulding, a locomotive
engineer on the Cincinnati, New Or-
leans & Texas Pacific Railway, whos*
home Is at Longvlew, Texas.
"While running an engine some
years ago," he says, "I fell off and
hurt my knee and spine and I have
always considered this to be the cause
of my Illness. The sciatica took hold
of me from my heel to the back of
my head. The pain was the worst
I ever suffered in my life and my leg
and back were twisted out of shape.
I was under a physician's care for
several months and for 6ix months
could not get out of bed. I also went
to Hot Springs but came back In a
worse condition than when I went
"It was when I was down in bed
that I heard of the case of a Mr.
Allison, a much older man than my-
self, who had been cured of sciatica
by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I began
taking the pills and soon was able to
get out of bed. When I had taken
six boxes I was able to work about
the house aad yard. I kept right
on with the pills until 1 was cured
and I have never had any return of
the trouble. I have been running aa
engine ever since."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or sent postpaid, on re-
ceipt of price, 50 cents per box. six
boxes for 12.50. by the Dr. Williassa
