TEN CENTS PER WEEK INSURGENTS MAY REVOLT REPUBLICAN MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE TO CAUCUS ON THE STATEHOOD BILL. ‘Washington, March %-—A caucus of the Republican members of the house has been called for Wednesday evening for the purpose of discussing the senate statehood bill. Statehood “insurgents” are rebelling at the proposition for a caucus on the ground that it is an attempt to bind them. There seems to be a general understanding that the so-called insur- gent members will not attend the cau- cus. Statehood legislation was a topic of discussion at the White House during the day. It developed from the calls on the president of Speaker Cannon and Representative Watson of Indi- ana, the Republican “whip” of the house, that the members of the house are incensed at the action of the sen- ate not only on the statehood bill but on other measures passed by the house which have been received with disapproval by the senate. When Speaker Cannon was asked if, in his opinion, there would be state hood legislation by this congress he said vehemently: “Go ask Aldrich, Burrows & Co. They seem to be run- ning things. So far as I am concerned ! the legislation will proceed along the ! The bill will be sent to a conference between the two branches. Do they think the house was horn in the woods to be scared by an owl?” Mr. Watscn was positive the house would not concur in the senate amend- wments to the statehood bill. *“The house will stand pat,” he declared. “The senate has kicked out our Phil- ippine bill, ias tried to emasculate the rate bill and has cut the life out of the statehood bill. Do you think the house will stand such treatment. It will not and you may depend upon it.” Alworney George S. LOuIDs, convice ed at San Francisco of perjury, has been sentenced by Superior Judge Burnett to confinement for fourteen Fears in the state penitentiary at San[ Quentin. Notice of an appeal was; given. i INVESTIGATING OIL RATES: Charges Made by Kansas Producers Being Looked Into.

The railroads in- volved are the Santa Fe, the Missouri Pacific, the Missouri, Kansas and Texas, the St. Louis and San Fran- cisco, the Rock Island, the Union Pa- zific, the Kansas City Southern and the Burlington. The members of the interstate com- merce commission who will make the investigation are Francis M. Cockrell, Judson C. Clements and Charles A: Prouty. John T. Marchand, who has been in the Southwest for the past two weeks making a preliminary in- vestigation of the producers, was pres- ent as the attorney for the commis- sion. Fraak S. Monett, former attor- ney general of Ohio, and Clifford Thorne of Washington, Ia., were pres- ent as counsel for the independent producers. The railroads interested also had representatives at the inves- tigation. A. L. Robertson of Cherryvale, Kan., was the first witness examined. Mr. Robertson, who formerly was a news: paper correspondent, is now a mem- ber of the Kansas Oil Producers’ asso- ciation, which makes the charges of discrimination. HERR RICHTER DEAD.

Washington, March {J}—It is the president’s intention to offer a cabinet place to George V.'L. Meyer of Massa- chusetts, present: American ambassa- dor to St. Petersburg.

Philadelphia, March . .—In response to a call for medical aid fifty local physicians. saw Mary. Boshetesky, a fifteen-year-old girl. who for nine months has been suffering from hijc- coughs. The girl has been to nearly every hospital in the city without be- ing able to find relief. These hiccoughs, which are puzzling the doctors, came as the result of a tragedy to which Mary was an unwill- ing witness nine months ago. While standing at the .door of her home she saw a little child run over and horribly: mangled by a trolley car.. The sight sickened her and she fainted. On recovering consciousness she was seized with nervous hysteria, Wweeping piteously for the dead child for several hours, and this was suc- ceeded by a paroxysm of hiccoughs. The attack, which shows no signs of ceasing, has bafligd all the best efforts of physicians who have attended her, e e MOMENTARY DEADLOCK. France and Gq"rmany Unable to Agree on Police Question. Algeciras, Spain, March !>-——The French delegates declare they will not accept foreign control of the Franco- Bpanish police for Morocco. The Ger- mans are firm. This makes a momen- tary deadlock upon details, but a solu- tion is eonsidered assured, as the par- ties are agreed upon the main prin- ciples involved. X MAIN SUBJECTS DISCUSSED. Brief Session of Moroccan Conference at Algeciras. Algeciras, Spain, March ? —The day’s session of the Moroccan confer- ence lasted half an hour. When the proposed Moroccan bank was dis- cussed Germany suggested that the administrators be chosen by the Banks of England, France, Spain and the Inperial German bank. The ques- tion of partitioning the shares among the powers-was left undecided. - The police question was also dis- cussed and was then referred to the committee for action. Previous to this Germany proposed “that an English secretary be added to this committee, which was agreed to. The tone of the deliberations of the delegates during the day was particu- ‘REPORTS - EXAGGERATED, General Corbin Discusses China. San Framcisco, March :X\—"There will be no war between the United States and China,” said eral Henry C. Corbin upon his arrival from the Orient on the steamer Korea. “So far as I have been able to ob- serve the reported disturbances in China have been greatly exaggerated Situatien in and conditions are not mnearly s01}: alarming as one would be led to sup- pose from reports that have been pub- lished abroad throughout the Western world. “That there have been disturbances is quite true, but I do not think they will break the|peace of China and the United States or any other nation. “The feeling against Americans in China does not exceed” that enter- tained toward all other foreigners and. as [ understand the.situation, the en- tire anti-foreign feeling is due ‘in a 14rge measure to the exploitation of business enterprises which the Chi- nese feel should be controlied by their own people.” ~i—far this - purpose.

St. Petersburg, March : "—Father Gapon was arrested during the day, on the eve of the inquiry demanded by him into the scandal invoived: in the charge that his labor organization was subsidized by the government. 5 M. Timiriazeff, ‘minister of com- merce, in an interview exonerates Father Gapon from all blame, declar- ing that he is an idealist and a man of force, and acquitting him of receiving any of the money given by the govern- ment to M.

THE GOOD THINGS OF EARTH Are Not All' That our American forests abound in plants, the roots of which possess the most valuable medicinal and curative virtues, is abundantly attested by scores of the most eminent medical writers and teach- ers of our age. Kven the untutored Indians had, g intuition and experi- ment, discovered the usefulness of many nativo plants before the advent of the white race on this continent. This in- formation, crude though it was, imparted freely to the friendlier of the whites, led the latter to continue investigations until to-day we have a rich assortment of most valuable American medicinal roots and erbs. It 1S no longer thought necessary that & medicinal agent, in order to be good and useful, must have been brought Lfioms across the ocean or that “being carried seven times across the Sahara Desert on the backs of fourteen camels” makes it the more valuable. Dr. Pierce believes that our American forests abound in most valuable medi- cinal roots for the cure of most of our obstinate and most fatal diseases, if we would ffi_roperly investigate them; and, in confirmation of this firm conviction, he points with pride to the almost mar- velous cures effected by hi¢ “Golden Med- ical Discovery,” which has proven itself to be the most efficient stomach tonic, liver invigorator, heart tonic and regu- lator, and blood cleanser known to med- ical science. Not less marvelous, in the unparalleled cures it is constantly mak- ing of woman’s many peculiar affec- tions, weaknesses and distressing derange- “ments, is Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip- tion, as is amply attested by thousands of unsolicited testimonials contributed by i;rateful patients who have been cured by t of leucorrhea, painful periods, irregular- ities, prolapsus and other displacements, ulceration of uterus and kindred affec- tions, often after many other advertised medicines had failed. Both these world-famed medicines are wholly made up from the glyceric ex- tracts of native, medicinal roots, found in our American forests. The processes employed in their manufacture were original- with Dr. Pierce, and they are -carried on by skilled chemists and phar- macists with the aid of apparatus and appliances specially. designed: and- built £ Both' medicines are entirely ‘free from: alcohol and *all other harmful, habit-forming drugs; A ful list, of their ingredients is printed on each of their wrappers. They are both made of such native, medicinal roots as have received the strongest endorsement:and praise for their curative virtues from the most prominent writers on Materia | ' Medica in this country. What is said of their power to cure the several diseases for which they are advised may be easily learned by sending your name and address to Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N.Y., for a little booklet which he has compiled, containing copious extracts Afrom numerous standard medical books, which are consulted as authorities by physicians of the several schools of prac- tice for their guidance in prescribing. It iS FREE TO ALL. A postal card request will bring it. You don’t have to rely solely upon the manufacturer’s say-so as to the power of Dr. Pierce’s medicines to cure, as with other medicines sold throngh druggists.

Paine, author of Paine’s Epitomy of Medicine, considered Stone root ‘specifie in these cases, and cites bad cases cured by it in his extensive practice. Goldem Seal root, another prominent ingredis of Dr. Pierce’s = overy,” is also valuable heart tonie, as {s also Black Cherrybark, another ingredient. You will also learn that the eminent Drs. Hale, Ellingwood, Johnson, Hare, Coe and others recommend Golden Seal root, and several of them Stone root, Queen’s root, Bloodroot and Black Cherrybark for bronchial, throat and lung affes- tions attended with hoarseness, persistent cough, night-sweats and kindred symp- indicating approaching consump- tion. All these agents are faithfully and Iu}elg represented in Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, and i8 can be eon- fidentally relied upon to produce their combined curative effects, not only in the above mentioned affections, but also m all catarrhal diseases, no matter whether affecting the nasal passages or other regions of the body. n nasal catarrh, while relying on the “Discovery ” as the best eonstitutional remedy known to medical science, Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy should be useg to cleanse the nasal passages. Together they constitute the most thorough ami effective course of treatment which cam be employed for the cure of that trouble- some diséase.
