TAFT WANTS CANAL
TO BE FORTIFIED
PRESIDENT BEGINS CAMPAIGN TO
SECURE PROTECTION FOR
ISTHMUS WATERWAY.
WOULD VIOLATE NO TREATY
Taft Says He Is Lover of Peace, But
Realizes That Peace Is Long
Way Off.
New York.—President Taft began
In earnest his campaign for the for
ltfication of the Panama canal. His
entire speech at the annual banquet
of the Pennsylvania society in New
York was devoted to this subject. He
was in high hope that congress, at
this session, will declare in his favor
and appropriate $5,000,000 to begin
the work.
In the senate the president has been
told the sentiment for fortification is
almost two to one. The nouse seems
pretty evenly divided, but no along
partisan lines. Most of the members
appear to have an open mind, how
ever, and are willing to he convinced
by the side that makes the better
presentation of its case.
President Taft will bring all of his
influence to hear in favor of fortifica
tion.
In his speech he said there were
absolutely no treaty obligations in the
way of fortifying the canal; that the
United States had every right and
reason to protect what was purely an
American waterway.
The president said he yielded to
no man in his love of peace and ha
tred of war. He said tie, hoped to
submit soon to the senate arbitration
treaties of a broader nature than nad
eviir come before that body or any
other legislative body of the world.
At the same time Mr. Taft caution
ed his hearers that universal peace ,
was still a long way off, and he could
not conceive of any patriotic Ameri
can being willing to allow an attack
ing force free and equal use of a
waterway which was built by Amer
icans largely as an instrument for the
defense of this country.
REBEL GUNBOAT SEIZED.
United States Cruiser Deprives Hon
duran Rebel Leader of Asset.
Ceiba, Honduras, Via Wireless to
New Orleans.—Great excitement was
caused here when it became known
tnat the United States cruiser Taco
ma had ''arrested'' the revolutionary
gunboat Hornet at Truxillo. The Hor
net recently sailed from New Or
leans.
The Hornet is being ' detained" on
instructions from Washington, be
cause of alleged violation of the neu
trality laws.
Commander Archibald H. Davis
made the seizure after two hours of
defiance from Gen. Manuel Bonilla,
leader of the Honduran rebels.
After Commander Davis seized the
Hornet he cast the rebel crew ashore,
manned her witn American gunners
and engineers and ordered her out of
the inner harbor.
The Hornet's recent movements up
and down the coast were taken in
the light of threatened hostilities
against Honduras by Commander Da
vis.
As soon as the Tacoma put into
Truxillo, Commander Davis sent an
officer bearing a message to General
Bonilla and declaring his intention of
taking charge of the vessel in accord
ance with instructions from the Wash
ington government to prevent bom
bardment of Honduran ports where
American property was In peril.
Bonilla answered In defiant manner
and then Commander Davis seized the
Hornet.
New Air Record.
San Francisco.—San Francisco’s av
iation meet produced a new American
endurance record when Parmalee, pi
loting a Wright biplane, remained
aloft for three hours thirty-nine min
utes and 45 t-o seconds. The best pre
vious endurance was that of A. U.
Welch of St. Ijouis, who established
a record of three hours, eleven min
utes and 55 seconds. At Los Ange
les the late Arch Hoxsey was credit
ed with an unofficial record of three
hours and seventeen minutes.
Chinese Mob Foreigners.
Hankow. China. —The death of a
coolie, who was found dying by the
British police, resulted in serious dis
orders. The Chinese suspected the
police had killed the coolie and riot
ing began in several sections. British
and German gunboats landed detach
ments and fierce fighting followed, in
which ten Chiuese were killed. After
the landing of the British and Ger
man marines, volunteers were called
out to defend the foreign community.
Several foreigners were injured.
No Extra Session.
Washington. When Republican
leaders in congress have been asked
it there was likely to be an extra
session because of thd congested con
dition of the calendars in both branch
es, and when that question has been
asked frequently within the last week,
they invariably answer in the nega
tive. They insist, in spite of the
extra session gossip, that the pres
ent short session is not jammed more
than was the short session two years
ago, so far as appropriation bills are
concerned.

ViLE REPORTS ABOUT SOUTH
LABOR AGENT’S STORIES ARE
SUPPRESSED BY THE SECRE
TARY OF COMMERCE.
Revolting Stories About Private Lives
of People in South Told in
Reports.
Washington.—That Secretary Na
gel of tile department ot commerce
and labor lias suppressed much of the
reports of agents of the labor bureau,
because of their revelations concern
ing the private lives of people in
North Carolina and other Southern
states, was asserted in the senate by
Senator Overman. He said some of
the reports were so revolting in char
acter that, if printed, the law prohib
iting the circulation of obscene liter
ature would prohibit thehir transmis
sion through the mails.
The statement followed an inquiry
by Senator Beveridge as to the pub
lication of the investigation into the
employment of women ard child la
bor made a tew years ago by the
bureau of labor.
It was at this juncture that Mr.
Overman made his statement concern
ing the course of Secretary Nagel.
“I heard of the vile character of
some of these reports,” he said, "and
went to Mr. Nagel about them. He
told me the revelations were such that
he felt called up*m to suppress them,
it would seem that some et the agents
had gone into the mountains and had
taken it upon themselves to investi
gate the private affairs of the people,
when the law authorized an inquiry
only into labor conditions ”
‘‘Just so,” commented Mr. Bailey;
"whenever we allow one of these med
dlesome officers to get their noses
into the front doors of the homes of
the people, they are liable to go far
ther than they should ”
The inquiry in question was made
at a cost of $300,000.
ALABAMA BARS LOBBYISTS.
First Clash Occurs in the Prohibition
Fight.
Montgomrey, Ala.—Anticipating a
hitter contest over the effort to re
peal the prohibition legislation, the
lower house of the Alabama legisla
ture, after prolonged debate, adopted
a rule forbidding anybody on the floor
of the house while the body was in
session, except members, employees
and active reporters. This shuts out
all lobbyists, of whom there are said
to be not a few here.
The first clash over the liquor ques
tion came on a motion in the house
to have all the liquor bills introduced
during the session printed This also
provoked a spirited debate and ended
in defeat of the resolution. Both sides
claim a victory and, if it was a vic
tory, it is a pyrrhic one.
Senator Frank S. Moody, known as
“the father of temperance in Alaba
ma," introduced a bill which has for
its object the establishing of a dis
pensary in every county in the state.
This is the most far-reaching liquor
bill so far introduced.
No Pardon for Youtsey.
Frankfort, Ry.—Governor Willson
refused to pardon Henry E. Youtsey,
convicted of the murder of Gov. Wil
liam Goebel. The governor says he
believes Youtsey is guilty of a cruel
murder. With the refusal of Gover
nor Willson to pardon Youtsey, the
of all those charged with con
spiracy to kill Governor Goebel are
now disposed of. Caleb Powers, now
congressman from the eleventh Kern
tucky district, and Jim Howard were
pardoned by Governor Willson sever
al months ago.
The fight over the liquor legislation
has been transferred from the senate
to the house, and it is plainly under
stood that the issue in that uody is in
doubt. The senate is said to be local
option by a small but working major
ity. The house is said to be prohibi
tion, but the local option ists deny
this. The local optionists control the
temperance committee of the house,
not a prohibitionist being on it.
The Mobile delegation put in a bill
that allows the sale of liquor in that
county.
THE VICTIMS
A NEW AVIATION FEAT.
Ely Flew From Shore, Landed on the
Deck of Warship Pennsylvania
and Flew Back to Shore.
San Francisco, Cal. —Eugene B.
Ely flew thirteen miles in a Curtiss
racing biplane, made a successful land
ing on the cruiser Pennsylvania and
an hour later rose from the cruiser
and flew back to Selfridge field, 12
miles south of San Francisco.
The feat was accomplished without
mishap. Not a wire or bolt of the
delicate mechanism was injured
"it was easy enough,” said Ely, as
he stepped from his seat and was
seized by the soldiers of the Thirtieth
infantry and hoisted on their shoul
ders. ”1 think the trick couid be suc
cessfully turned nine times out of
ten.”
in exactly one hour from the time
he landed Ely took his seat in the
machine and gave the word to let go
The aeroplane swept down the 125
foot platform at a high speed, dropped
off the stern with a gentle dip and
then rose rapidly over the ships in the
harbor. The start was as perfect as
the landing had been
COTTON MILLS 10 CURTAIL
Factory Owners Recommend a Cut of
25 Per Cent, in the Output.
Boston, Mass. —Millions of spindles
in the cotton mills of the United
States will be idle one-quarter of the
time until market conditions improve,
if a recommendation made by the
Arkwright Club is accepted generally.
The Arkwright Club is an organiza
tion of the treasurers of mills in Mas
sachusetts, New Hampshire and
Maine, many of which have their head
offices in Boston, and represent more
than ten millions of spindles. Of toe
28,000,0u0 spindles in the l nited
States 15,600,000 are in New England,
tailed extensively last year because of
tlie high cost of cotton ana an indif
ferent demand for goods, and the
same reasons are given by the Boston
treasurers for their action.
ORIGIN OF HOBBLE SKIRT.
North Carolina Farmer Is Responsible
for New Style.
Iredell, N. C. —It transpired that the
hobble skirt was first worn in Lin
coln county many, many years ago,
long before the idea ever occurred to
gay Paree.
'Squire 1). A. Barkley of Iredell says
that old man Howard of Dry Pond,
now Denver, Lincoln county, first sug
gested tile hobble when lie required
his girls to wear a two-foot string tied
to their ankles when dropping corn
in the furrows in order to preserve
a regular graduation of the stalks. Tais
imposition which foced them to step
just two feet regulated toe dropping
of the corn and \ery quickly gravitat
ed into the hobble skirt.

Fertilizer men discuss Conditions.
Augusta, Ga.—The Southern Fertil

were 44 delegates present The pot

because of the action of that country
in discriminating against these dealers
who sell potash under contract to
American fertilizer dealers. The pres
ident has already been approached on
the subject. The report of Mr. J. A.
Moncure, who was sent to Germany
to investigate the subject, was heard.
Senator Lodge Won Hard Fight.
IV ton, Mass.—Henry Cabot Lodge
won the hardest fought battle in his
political career, and will return to
the United Statds senate for a fourth
term with the support of one hun
dred and forty-six out of two hun
dred and seventy-nine members of the
Massachusetts legisltaure, or six more
than the number necessary for a
choice in the joint convention. Two
Democratic senators, Martin H. Cur
ley and Martin J. Murray, left their
party to vote for Mr. Lodge, but their
suppot was net necessary.
COULD NOT
GUESS HER AGE
Mrs. Jones, at 52, Rides Horseback
As Well As She Ever Could
Kenny, 111. —Mrs. Anna Jones, of
this place, says: “I used to be trou
bled with a weakness peculiar to
women. For nearly a year, I could
not walk, without holding my sides
with my hands. I tried several dif
ferent doctors, supposed to be the
best, and was never even relieved. I
got worse, and I told my husband I
believed they were experimenting on
me.
“Finally our druggist advised Car
for my complaint. I was so thin, my
weight was 115. Now I weigh 163,
and I am never sick. I ride horse
back as good as I ever could. I am
In fine health, at 52 years. Some
think I am about 35. It was Cardui
built me up. If I ever need medicine
for womanly troubles, I shall use
Cardui, for It is all you claim.”
Thousands of ladies have written,
like Mrs. Jones, in the past fifty years,
to tell of the benefit received from
Cardui. Such testimony, from earnest
women, surely proves the great value
of this tonic medicine, for the diseases
peculiar to their sex.
