M. 0. Madson & Co. One Priced Clothiers - The Da.ily Pioneer 10c per Week GAYNOR FOR FREE SPEECH Sends Special 'Message to New York Board of Aldermen. New York, Feb. 23.—The right of | free speech is to be guaranteed to all inhabitants of New York, according to Mayor William J. Gaynor._. . In a special message to: the board of aldermen the mayor, after explain- ing ‘that police methods ,have been radically changed by his direction, says: | “I have particularly made the police authorities understand that those who entertain views of government, or of social order, different from ours, are not to be interfered with or denied the right of freedom of speech and assembly on that ground. “A propaganda, by intellectual per- suasion and peaceable means, for the economic or social order is lawful and not to be meddled with, much less oppressed by the police. And that their flag is red instead of blue or yellow or green does not alarm or annoy intelligent people.” PRESIDENT IS STANDING PAT Intention to Call Extra Ses- sion Not a Bluff. SITUATION COMPLICATED Pressure of Other Measures in the Senate May Prevent a Vote Being Reached on the Reciprocity Agree. ment—Chief Executive Emphatic in His Declaration That Congress Will Be Reassembled if Treaty Fails. Washington, Feb. 23.—“T'l them whether I'm in earnest!” This statement roared out in sten- torian tones and further emphasized by a smashing blow of his ponderous fist on the desk in front of him, is re ported as President Taft's answer to the allegations of opponents of the reciprocity measure that he was not in earnest in his declared intention of calling an extra session of congress in event the senate’did not vote on reciprocity before March 4. Every effort is being made by the opposition to reciprocity to create the impression that there will be no ex tra session and at the same time to persuade President Taft either that he doesn’t really intend to call one o1 that to call one would have a disas- trous effect on the business interests of the country and his own political fortunes. Statements have been made, too. that it will be possible to get a vote on the bill in the senate before ad journment, although that is recog- nized as virtually a physical impossi- bility in view of the other business the senate must dispose of in the lim- ited time remaining. The president, it is sald authorita- tively, does not believe it possible that a vote will be reached and he is unalterably determined to call an ex- tra session. He will not be bluffed by the avowed opponents of reciprocity. Situation Is Complicated. Senator Root, one of the White House callers, declared after coming out of the executive offices that it was impossible to tell whether the senate would be able to reach a vote on the agreement or not. Owing to the com- plicated situation in that body and the large rumber of other questions which it is considering he thought it doubtful if a vote would be reached. The suggestion having been that the Japanece treaty sent to the sen- ate by the president might be a sort of buffer movement' the president made it known that such conjecture should not be given serious considera- tion even for a moment, because there was no hurry about the adop tion of the treaty and a special ses: sion of the senate could be called to settle the treaty question. It was intimated at the White House that the treaty was satisfac- tory to the Pacific coast, that repre- sentatives of that section had been, consulted during the preparation of the instrument, and that they were satisfied the mew treaty would be more pleasing to their people than the existing one. } show Chippendale’s Own. “Is it genuine Chippendale?” “Absolutely, sir.” “But this looks like a crack right across”— “Done by Chippendale himself, sir, in a fit of rage when he heard the union had called the men out.” — London Punch. .

GIVES FACTS IN CASE Asserts at Opening of Speech His In tention to Tell the Truth and Avoic |- the Legal Phase of the Controversy Sets Up an Alibi as an Answer tc Some of the Charges Made Agains Him on the'Floor of the Senate. ‘Washington, Feb. 23.—Senator Lori mer, of Illinois addressed the senate it support of his right to a seat in the senate. “Many questions have been suggest ed by the statements of senators ir the debate on this case,” Senato: Lorimer said. “These suggestions o1 questions concern mostly the actual condition of my election to this body “Did I organize the INinois assem bly against Hopkins? Did I make Shurtleff speaker in order that 1 might be elected senator? “Did I make Lee O'Neil Browne mi nority leader? “Was Lee O'Neil Browne my ageni —my corrupt agent? “Why did I stay in Springfield dur ing the senatorial contest? “Why did I sit in the speaker's room? “For what purpose did I talk there with Shepherd? “Why did the Democrats vote for me? “These are some of the questions suggested by statements of senators in opposition to the committee report. or openly put by them in the course ot the debate, “There is only one kind of answer that should stand or that should count in this case. That is the plain matter of fact, simply truth. It is this matter of fact, this truth, that I purpose to lay before the senate. The legal ar- gument and and abstract deductions are beyond my purpose. “I rise simply to tell, as one who lived through it all, exactly how my election at Springfield was brought about to answer the foregoing ques: tions with the facts that alone can answer them correctly.” Takes Up the Charges. Mr. Lorimer said there had been an effort to cover the case with a veil ot suspicion. It had been charged ihat Some one person with a powerful mind had organized the legislature to de feat Senator Hopkins. “Some senators have intimated that the man with the powerful mind and in organizing genius was myself,” he said. - It also had been intimated, he as- serted, that he had been guilty of cor- rupt practices in his own interest. Taking up one of Senator Craw- ford’s charges, Mr. Lorimer declared that any one who knew anything of the Illinois legislature would not as- sert that he sought to organize the legislature against Governor Dencen. To organize a legislature so as to include Democrats and ~ Republicans required effort. From Sept. 15 to No- vember he had been confined to his home by .illness and had not been able to appear until just before the election. :In. consequence of that ill- ness a report had been circulated that he was about to die, so that people had seid.on that account he should not be elected senator. After the November election he had made a tour of the Pacific and after another illness had returned to Wash- ington. . He was, in the national house of representatives on the very day, Jan. 7, that Shurtleff had been elected has just been awarded the Grand Prix atthe . Brussels | International Exposition Nz speaker. " Governor Tried to Dictate. He told of the effort of Governor Deneen to defeat Shurtleff for speak- er, saying that the governor had gone 80 far as to tell members that unleas they voted against Shurtleff they ‘would be deprived of all patronage. “In other words, the governor of ou: state undertook to dictate who should be speaker.” “Why was not this fact put in the record,” interjected Senator Craw- ford, “so that Governor Deneen could make reply, as the, senator is now making a statement here?” Mr. Lorimer said he could not reply, fully, as he had not ben a member-of the investigating committee. “No senator connected with the in- vestigation will say that at any time I made any suggestion concerning the conduct of the case or in my behalf. I, therefore, the senator from South Dakota is dissatisfied I am not to blame for' it.” A CURIOUS BIRD. The Crested Hoactzin When Hatched Has Four Legs. The crested hoactzin of British Gui- ana is the only survivor of a certain race of birds:most of which are now known only as fossils. The hoactzin inhabits the most secluded forests of South America, and its survival be- yond its congeners is doubtless owing to its retiring habits and to the fact that it feeds on wild arum leaves, which give its flesh a most offensive flavor, rendering it unfit for food. The chief peculiarity of the hoactzin consists in the fact that when it is hatched it possesses four well develop- ed legs. The young birds leave the nest and climb about like monkeys over the adjoining limbs and look more like tree toads than birés, The modification of the fore limbs begins at once after hatching, when the claws of the digits fall off and the whole clawlike hand begins to flatten and become wing shaped. Feathers soon appear, and before full growth is reached not a vestige remains of the original character. The adult birds not only have no claws upon their wings, but their thumbs even are so poorly developed that one would hardly suspect that in the nestlings we have the nearest ap- proach to a quadruped found among existing birds.—London Tit-Bits. Tung Po and Teamaking. There is but one way of making tea, for— Unless the water boiling be To pour on Wwater spoils the tea. The teapot itself should be heated very hot before the tea is placed in it and the boiling water poured on. It should be scalding hot water or the leaves will float to the top. No less authority than Tung Po, the Chinese poet, is quoted for a recipe for teamaking. He says: “Whenever tea is to be infused take water from a running stream and boil it over a live. | ly fire. It is an old custom to use run- ning water, boiled over a lively fire. ‘That from springs in the hills is said to be best and river water the next, while well water is the worst. A Hvely fire is a clear, bright charcoal ‘fire. When making an infusion do not boil the water too hastily. At first it begins to sparkle like crabs’ eyes, then somewhat like fish’s eyes, and lastly it boils up like pearls innumerable springing and waving about. This is the way to boil water.” “Touch Not the Queen.” Under this title a Paris journal pro- fesses to give an account of the tragic death of the queen of Siam, who was as greatly loved as her consort. Some years ago her majesty was boating ‘with ladies of the court in a lake in the gardens of the palace at Bangkok. The boat overturned, and the queen could mot swim. She was surrounded by nu- merous personages who could have saved her life, but no one has the right to extend the hand upon the queen. “The king alone could have held her up and prevented her from sinking, and he was nowhere at hand. Respectful- 1y the court allowed the queen to drown. . WOMEN IN FIGHT FOR THE BALLOT Big Delegation Descended on New York Legislature. OPPONENTS ALSO ON HAND Anti-Suffragettes Turn_Out in Force and Prove to Be as Aggressive in Debate as Their Sisters Who De- mand the Ballot—Organized Agita- tion to Continue for the Balance of the Week. Albany, N. Y., Feb. 23.—Republican legislatures for years having turned a deaf ear to the pleas of woman suf- frage advocates, the turn in the po- litical tide which sent a Democratic majority to Albany this year was the signal for renewed effort on the part of the organizations which annually have battled over the issue on Capitol hill, Heretofore the suffragists have con- tented themselves with an annual field day before the legislative committees, leaving a few of the faithful to watch developments, but this year the Equal Franchise society, of which Mrs. Clar- ence Mackay is president, arranged a “suffrage week” programme, with a hearing before the senate and assem- bly judiciary committee as its chief feature. The anti-suffragists, too, turned out in force and proved to be quite as ag- gressive in debate as their sisters who demanded the ballot. An open air demonstration, at which Mrs. Harriet Stanton Blatch, Miss Le- nora O'Reilly and other enthusiastic suffragists spoke, served to attract at- tention to the main event in the capi- tol, scheduled for later in the day. { Mrs. Arthur M. Dodge, who succeed- ed Mrs. Francis M. Dodge as president of the New York State association op- posed to woman’s suffrage, was in charge of the forces of the opposition. ~ven ' Rheumatism Comes . From Bad Kidneys Once Your Kidneys Work Properly, | Rheumatism, Kidney Disease and | Bladder Trouble Disappear. How To Cure Yourself.

Your blood passes through the kidneys hundreds of times a day to be filtered and purified. When the kidneys are weak, the poisons are not taken out of the blood as they should be.

One day's use of them will prove their remarkable effect. M. T.
