“Just Around the Corner”
Washington, December 11.—Senator
Jeff Davis, of Arkansas, delivered u
reith -t speech in the senate this af
ternoon. it was his maiden effort
in that body and was the first set
si>eech by any senator in the sixtieth
congress. Moreover it was made just
nine days after he had taken his seat
as a member.
It was in advocacy of the destruc
tion of tlie trusts and the placing In
felon's stripes of rich malefactors. He
declared that a prison sentence star
ing .iclm I). Rockefeller in the face
would make hint a law-abiding citi
zen. He stigmatized Wall street
speculators is gamblers and thieves
and charged them with precipitating
the recent money panic.
He criticised the annual salary of
President Roosevelt which he pul at
$110,000. He said he did not need
that sum to live on. "and I’ve got the
president skinned a ldock in the mat
ter of a family." he exclaimed. “I
hive eight children childern: he has
only five."
In contemptuous tv nos Davis de
clared that "unless conditions change,
It will n i lie long before American
statesmen will lie wearing knee
I leeches and |>owdered wigs and bow
ing down to semi-royalty.”
His speech was .upon the bill he
introduetd shortly after the assem
bling of congress making any attempt
to regulate or control prices a con-
jsplracy punishable by heavy fines and
long Imprisonment. It further pro
vides for the revocation of the charter j
of the company and permits recov
ery of the purchase price.
"Nil remedy which means only their
destruction can lie too drastic. Any
thing short of destruction, any tempor
izing with the wrong, will not satisfy
an outraged public and will not bring
the relief desired. The trust evil is
a cancer s re upon *the body politic
just as upon the human holy. The
only remedy is the surgeon's knife.

At Hie regular lin e

cers were elected for January:
President.—Allen H. Bunco.
Vice-President. I). H. R* dfern
Parliamentarian. C. C. King.
Sergean t-a t A rm s. McG ar r i t y.
After t.lie election the
question was discussed:
"Resolved, That, the Monroe Do"
trine Should No Longer lie the Poli
cy of the I'nited States."
This question was discussed by the
leading speakers on both sides after
which the other members cf the socie-
din* i in the. discussion. The
dent rendered his decision in fa-
if the negative.
; Inflammatory Rheumatism Cured in
3 Days.
I Morton L. Hill, of Lebanon, Ind.,
| says: “My wife had Inflammatory
i Rheumatism in every muscle and
joint; her suffering was terrible and
! h* r body and fare were swollen al-
following ! most beyond recognition; had been
J in bed for six weeks and had eight
physicians, but received no benefit
at.Hi she tried Dr. Detchon's Relief
for Rheumatism. It gave immediate
relief and she was able to walk about
in three days. I am sure it saved her
life." Sold by H. R. Palmer & Sons.
"It is the bounden duty of congress
to act. If we ii n'l destroy the trusts
then I tremble for the public. The crea
ture is growing greater and stronger
and more powerful than its creator.
If permitted for only a few years
to run without check or hindrance
instead of the. government prescrib
ing the terms upon which the trusts
do business the trusts will be prescrib
ing the terms upon which the govern
ment may do business.
"Nearly seven years of Mr. Roose
velt's strenuous term have passed
with all machinery of the government
at his bark. Yet. I ask. will some re
publican sew --r nr n this floor tell
me one trust lie has ever tamed, much
less destroyed .'
"It has 1 i n said that corporations
should 1 <• tie t"d fairly and justly.
That is too often the shield behind
which cowardly public servants evade
their duty.
"Treat a robber trust like an ordi
nary felon. Make the strong arm of
the law the same against him as
against a horse thief. Place the fel
on's stripes—the loxology cf a mis-
sjunf life—upon him. and see the
trusts busted and the people get re
lief."
A tickling cough, Bom any cause,
is quickly stopped by Dr. Shoop's
Cough Cure. And it is so thoroughly
harmless and safe, that Dr. Shoop tells
mothers everywhere to give it with
out hesitation even to very young
babies. The wholesome green leaves
and tender stems of a lung-healing
mountainous shrub, furnish the cura
tive properties to Dr. Shoop’s Cough
Cure. It calms the cough, and heals
the sore and sensitive bronchial mem
branes. No opium, no chloroform,
nothing harsh used to injure or sup
press. Simply a resinous plant ex
tract that helps to heal aching lungs
The Spaniards call this shrub which
the Doctor uses. "The Sacred Herb.”
Demand Dr. Shoop’s. Take no other.
