But Jchn E. Bennett, one of the leading promoters of the cor- poration and the friend of Ho Yow, says that the Pacific Charter Company {s con- cerned primarily neither with the Chinese merchants of San Francisco nor the im- portation of one million coolies into Mex- ico. “Tt_would take a hundred years,” sald Mr. Bennett yesterday, ‘‘to import that | many Chinese, and, bésides, we are not interested in that matter anyway. While the Mexican Government has placed the Chinese upon as favorable a feoting as any other nation, our company is con- | cerned in something else. We did expect | to bring over a few Chinese, but not near the number published in The Call. | __“Far down on the south coast, near the Isthmus of Tehauntepec, are admirable fishing grounds, and a heaithy climate fa- | vorable to Chinese. But our main purpose | is to eng:\fie in transportation from Eu- | e { rope to t Mexican coast, across the | Isthmus of Tehauntepec and from there | to Asia. Traffic would come both ways | and would be very profitable, partlcu-} larly befors the construction ,of the Nicarague canal. The Isthmus of Tehaun- tepec is only 240 miles, and a railroad is now being built there.” As for our offers to local Chinese, we only wanted to let them in on a good thing.” And Mr. Ben nett smiled so blandly that there was | not the slightest doubt that he meant | what he said. | *“As for the Charter Company carrying out its pl ,"" Mr. Bennett con- tinued, “I can s wothing. Everything | is in the air at present, and we are sim- | waiting developments. Our company | v be S%’"m<fi|l and it may not be.” | Arthur Tarpey, another of the incor- | | porators, declined to anyvthing in con- tion or its plans. with the promise | that out the first bunch of coolies brought from China he will save a Chi- | nese cook for The Call.

However, several resolutions are | being circulated by those who feel that | the action yesterd falled to take into j account the feelings of Dr. Howard and desire to assure him of their good will. | There are two sets of resolutions being | circulated, but the second one is in the | hands of the men who sympathize most strongly with Dr, Howard and wish to go on record as favoring him. The fol- |lowing of the latter class is especially | small, as the general sentiment among the | students is to let the matter rest where | vesterday's resolution left it. They argue | that anything in the way of resolutions among the students is in u manner_public agitation, which the stu- | dents should be the last to foster. The | first of the resolutlons now being circu- lated is as follow: To Dr. George Elliott Howard: Fearing the action of the Associated Students in affirming | their faith in President Jordan may be misun- | derstood by you, we, as of those who supported | such action, ‘wish to offer you an explanation. You will readily realize that we have been confronted by an extremely delicate situation. On the one hand we have had to consider our duty to the university, and on the other the | rights, convictions and unquestioned sincerity | of thise members of the faculty most con | cerned. and the debt we owe them for what | they Luve given us of themselves during our | association with them. In reaching our final | decision simply to declare the confidence we feel in Dr. Jordan, it has seemed best to us to leave out of consideration altogether the merits of the controversies which have arisen We have followed what has appeared the only course fairly open t~ us as students and bene. ficiaries. We cannot, however, express our regrat at losing you from our faculty. Your influence has been felt not only by thoge of us who have known you personally, but it has permeated the whole being of the university. Upon the stu. dents the effect of contact with you has been | that of the ideal teacher. The place you have | occupled in the life of the university cannot | eirculated The second resolution is for those who believe that the first one is not strong enough and who wish to go upon recori as sympathizing wita Dr. Howard, | as follo To Dr. George E. Howard: We, the under- | signed students of Stanford University, unqual. | ifiedly indorse the position you have main- | tained with regard to the questions of deep im. portance which have recently arisen in the uni. versity. We “sincerely deplore the forces which have resulted in vour resignation, and we further | take this opportunity of expressing to you our u have maintained throughout the present eris 1 President Jordan was at this morning, evidently in the best o health and spirits. He feels that hi; | statement made last night covers all that | was to be said on the subject, add nothing further to-day. — For a Cold in the Head.

No sooner was it announced that a posi- tive cure for nervous aflments, an unfafl- ing blood purifier, had been discovered by Professor Phelps of Dartmouth, and phy- sicians everywhere welcomed Paine’s cel- ery compound as the most-to-be-desired discovery of a time when modern ways of working and living had begun to mul- tiply diseases that arise from impaired nerves and impure blood— ‘When a great public demand arose for this remedy from one end of the country to another, at once, as in every such case, a lot of cheap fellows began to try to impose upon people one and another trade medi- cine, sometimes harmful, always worth- less, claiming for them the unexampled properties of Paine’s celery compound. Naturally, none of them ever succeeded. None of them ever will. Paine’s celery compound made people well! The aged and infirm found in it new and lasting strength.

AT A\ AN \\\\\\ ‘\\‘\\\\\\\\\\\\\\‘9\» NN sick, suffering with Insomnia, rheuma- tism, diseases of the kidneys, regained thelr health, and strength, and buoyancy by the well-advised use of Paine's celery | compound. As a great leader and writer in Boston publicly declared one day, Paine’s celery compound had proven itself to be as much better than all the ordi- nary nervines, sarsaparillas and trade preparations as the diamond is brighter than ordinary glass. From thousands of grateful persons un- solicited testimonials ‘began to pour in from those whom Paine's celery com- pound had benefited. The wealthy and the poor, the famous and the compara- tively unknown, sent to the proprietors of the remedy, to the newspapers, to thelr physicians, to their friends, the glad news that here at last they had found a remedy that made them themselves again! And the foolish fellows with their silly nostrums, starting up here and there ev- ery year, discovered as often as they tried it that, when a person’s health is at stake, he or she will not be fimposed upon. Palne’s celery compound was in greater demand last year than the year before; the demand this spring is greater than for all the so-called spring remedies com- bined. People insist upon having the one remedy that does them good, makes them strong, repairs their shattered strength. They call for Paine's celery compound! | The story of the lifework of this great physician has been often told, and is fa- | miliar to most readers. | | Professor Phelps was born in Connecti- |cut. and graduated from the military | school at Norwich, Vt. He studied medi- | cine with Protessor Nathan Smith of New Haven, Conn., and graduated in medicine ! at Yale. His unusual talent soon brought him reputation and prominence. First he was elected to the professorship of anatomy | and surgery in the Vermont University. | Next he was appointed lecturer on ma- | teria medica and medical botany in Dart- | mouth College. The next year he was chosen professor of the chair then va- cated by Professor Robby, and occupied the chair, the most important one In the country, at the time when he first formu- lated his most remarkable prescription. To-day Paine's celery compound stands without an equal for feeding exhausted nerves and building up the strength of the body. It cures radically and perma- nently. The nervous prostration and gen- eral debllity from which thousands of wo- men suffer so long that it finally gets to be a second nature with them—all this| suffering and despondency can be very | soon removed by properly feeding the | nerves and replacing the unhealthy blood | by a fresher, more highly vitalized fluid. | A healthy increase in appetite and a co e .

Paine’s celery compound is the most re- markable medical achievement of the last fifty years. It makes people well. It is the one true specific recognized and prescribed to-day by eminent practitioners for gdiseases aris- ing from a debilitated nervous system. Professor Phelps gave to his profession a positive cure for sleeplessness, wasting strength, dyspepsia, billousness, liver complaint, neuralgia, rheumatism, all pervous diseases and kidney troubles. For all such complaints Paine’s celery com- pound has succeeded again and again where everything else has failed It is as harmless as it is good, and it was the universal advice of the medical profession that the compound be placed where the general public could secure it, and thousands of people have year after year proven the wisdom of this good ad- vice. Only a truly great and effective remedy could continue, as Palne's celery com- pound has dome, to hold its unrivaled piace in the estimation of the ablest phy- siclans and of the thousands of busy men and women whose only means of judging is from the actual results in their own home or among their friends. No remedy ‘was ever so highly recommended, because none ever accomplished so much. OCEAN TRAVEL. OCEAN TRAVEL. OCEAN TRAVEL. Pacific Coast Steamship Co.
