Daniel Supports President’s Power. Senator Daniel, of Vlrglnin, thereup on secured the floor. In the main, he supported the President, saying: "From the beginning of the history of the country there him never been a ques tion of the power of the President to drop from the roll any private soldier. The people ought not to he deceived by nriy misunderstanding on this subject. Public sentiment should always stand hv the rhief Kxeeutlve ami. command- er-in-e.hlef of the army when he is clear In his great office, and in this case I think he Is clear.” Senator Daniel did not. however, en dorse the position of the President In forever debarring from entering the civil service the men discharged from the army. "1 think In that rose pec'," he said, "the arrow' from his bow went too far.” Mr. Daniel analysed the articles of war and army reguatlons to sustain his conclusion that the power to dis miss Is equal and conclusive in the President, the Secretary of War, the commander of a department and a court martini. This, he said, had been so for a hundred years, and must ne cessarily be so. “I tint neither the lover, the friend nor the advocate of autocratic power.” be said, "but no people in all the tide of time have ever been able to make an aggressive or defensive war with out pursuing It through the discipline and organization of urmioR by putting power into the hands of those who command It." Referring to the army regulations, Mr. Daniel said they are made by the President, "and,” he continued, "what ever other criticism has been made up on the present President from the Republican side of this chamber, none have ever intimated that he Is en gaged In seeking to curtail his own power. In fact, some have delicately in timated that he was seeking to extend It beyond the lines which they would prescribe us legitimate and proper." Justifying Democratic support for the position of the President. Mr. Dan iel said: "Nothing has ever prevented anybody coming from South of the Potomac from declaring his honest Judgment as to the meaning of the Con stitution nor In upholding the power of the President and the army on all oc casions where patriotism invoked adhe sion or where clear understanding pro duced conviction " No Prejudice* for Negro. Mr. Daniel denied that the race question was Involved, "and.” he ex claimed. "may God forbid that the peo ple of the United States shall raise racial questions when 1t is possible for them to avoid them.” He proceeded: “I have no particle of prrludiec against the colored peo ple. If I felt that they had beer, un justly dealt with In this cafe, there is not n man on this floor more willing than 1 would be to defeat them. But it Is not the color of a soldier’s skin which gives him any right, and we should teach the colored men of the United Stat es even ns we teach the •white men that obedience to the law. .whatever that law may be. is the first Ldutv of a soldier, and the man who Uoea not obey shall feel its power." ' Mr. Daniel ridiculed the suggestion, Which he said had been mysteriously hinted at. "that the people of Rrowns- Vllle 'shot up’ their own town in order to bring reproaeli on the co’orpd sol diers. In nil the Southern outrages I hgve over heard of." continued Mr. Daniel, "this Is the first time that the human mind hud been distorted into the suggestion that a Southern town was shooting up Itself. "If this had been a white company," continued Mr. Daniel, "whether from Connecticut or Virginia, we would have had nr. public meetings on the subject. No sermons would have been preach ed: no churches would have been nroused and diverted from their relig ious devotions." Mr. Daniel favored an Investigation. "Get all the evidence you can." he said, "hut do not impugn the President and the military law. To sustain the Pres ident." he said In conclusion, "is not friendship for autocracy; it is simply friendship for Government; It is re spect for the law." Senator Foraker asked that the •Brownsville resolution go over until to morrow and the order was made. WASHINGTON. Jan.

DEFENSE OF NEGROES DUE-TO POLITICS WASHINGTON, Jan. V—Ill the Il"'jse today Mr. Slayder.. of Texas. .'Kr at length on the Brownsville nf- f;,ir. H>- said there was no doubt that ;pc negro troops had been responsible for that disturbance and contended that if they had been white men their dis charge would have been generally en- d,,:v.d. He charged that the defense Of tile negroes was due to political re.i- .,,ns. Mr. Slevden also reviewed the r< or.l of the Twenty-fifth Infantry, showing that some portions of i: had l„.rn Involved in other affairs which won- not creditable to them. Instances ,,f lawlessness by other negro regiments were also detailed. In declaring the negro race to be unfit for American soldiers, the Texas Congressman said h. had in view only the circumstances of their service. He did not impeach their physical courage. "This Is a virtue," he said, "that belongs to near ly all men. and If there is any differ- r'nee between savage and civilized man in this respect, the superiority possibly 11, s with the savage who is undeterred from rash ventures by' thought of the consequences."

Jan. 8.—The Daily Mail's correspondent at Teheran in a tele gram sent last night at 11:30 o’clock says: "The Shah of Persia died this eve ning, though no public announcement of the fact will be made until tomor row (Wednesday). It was evident yes terday (Monday) that the end was rapidly approaching and at 5 o’clock in the evening the heir apparent and the ministers were summoned. The women of tile palace also began preparations for mourning. 'Soon after sunset the doors of the harem were closed. This was the sign that all was over.

The report of the com- mltoe was adopted and a committee of seven will be appointed to prepare the prospectus of the corporation and send them to county organizations for sub scriptions. Subscription to the stock is limited to cotton growers and no one is allowed over one-tenth of one per cent of the whole capital stock. All the old officers of the association were re-elected: Harvle Jordan, pres ident; J. R. Williams, vice-president: F. G. Schell, secretary, and J. Y. Blitch. treasurer. Officers salaries to b,- liberal and fixed by executive com mittee. The question of acreage this year came up and the association pledged itself to ten acres to the plow, the usual acreage running from twelve to twenty-five to the plow. This acreage is about the same as this year, which is fifty per cent less than the season of 1905. Delegates from the South Carolina sea island growers were before ihe association to get data as to yield in Georgia and Florida, the amount of cotton planted yield to the acre, aver age price, cost of seed and other mat ters of that character to be used by the Carolina sea island growers in dis posing of their seed. They have refus ed to sell seed to outsiders during the past year or two because of the large exportations of seed to foreign coun tries and also because of the increas ing crops of Georgia and Florida. The association, by a rising vote, pledged its support socially and finan cially to President Harvie Jordan in his fight on the New York Stock Ex change and any action that it may bring against them. Reports indicated that the present crop will not be over 55.500 bales and many members believe the price will go to 40 cents per pound.

LONDON, Jan. 9.—The death of the Shah removes a picturesque ruler who was well known to Western Europe, owing to his frequent visits, particu larly to France, where he enjoyed the pleasures of Paris life. During the visit of 1905 the Shah and his suite made a dazzling appearance on the Boulevards and in the music halls of Paris. They were treated as national guests and given a truly royal wel come. while popular enthusiasm was marked owing to the Shah's good na ture and lavish charity. The Shah's death comes at a time when European governments are engaged in a strug gle to strengthen the position in Per sia. This struggle is due to the geo graphical position of Persia a* a buf fer between the British possessions of India and Russia's southern posses sions stretching toward the Persian gulf. The late Shah was strongly pro- Russlan, and as a result Russian influ ence has been predominant at Tehe ran. The Japanese, however, so weakened Russia that her hold upon Persia somewhat relaxed. British policy thereupon sought to join interest with Russln instead of antagonizing her. As a result, an Anglo-Russian understand ing has recently been negotiated. By thip arrangement Great Rritain and Russia will unite in a Joint policy whereby each safeguards Us Interest. At the same time Germany has been extending her influence in Persia: German physicians attended the Shah during his last Illness, and the estab lishment of a German bank gives the first competition to these Russian and British hanks. PULPIT CAN’T 99 ATLANTA, Jan. 8—A spirited dis cussion of the prohibition election was indulged in by the members, of the Evangelical Ministers' Association of Atlanta at. their regular monthly meet ing held yesterday. The "discussion” was more of an ex pression of views and was brought about by an introduction of the resolu tions adopted by the Anti-Saloon League at its meeting last Friday night, and which were presented to the association this morning for its in- [ dorsement. In substance, the resolu- | tions were as follows: "That the members of the present I Legislature from Fulton County be re- i quested to lend their support to a J measure, or to introduce such a meas- J ure at the next session of the Legis- | lature. looking to State prohibition, and | that it he specifically stated in the bill | that Fulton County be included in the number of counties affected by the bill: and that in the meantime the cir culation of petitions be continued for presentation to the Representatives of this county showing the sentiment of the voters concerning ihe abolition of the whisky traffic in this county." The resolutions also went further and declared that the Anti-Saloon League Is not bound by the authorities of the city and any action the City Council or any other authority may take in the whisky question will not affect its movements in any particular.

For a moment the two beasts were stag gered He tried to fire again, hut found that he had dropped Ihe revolver. In a frenzy, he seized the dead wolf and flung ii at the others ns they came on. He struck one a fierce blow under the jaw with his boot and made a slashing rut with his lenc knife, at which one of the wolves sprang around behind. At this he unslung the child and. holding it high in air with one hand attempted to toss It into the low shell-like branches of the tree. Rut as he held It aloft, the wounded wolf sprang upon him. sprang and met the long blade that sank into its throat. The force of the rush threw the man down and away from the tree. Dropping the bag into the soft snow, he seized ivs long skee that he had trust, end upward, in the snow, and waited. The white wolf the specter of its kind, ran hack and ranio at him with many false starts then with a vein dashed straight on. Clancy intended to use the skee as a club, but the thought suddenly found lodgment in his benumbed brain that if this broke he was lost, so he dropped it and sprang to meet the brute, with a •nsddened cry—gr-r-r-r—in his throat.

Schuyler Jackson had not tonight been able to locate all the bal lot boxes used in the McClellan-Hearst mayoralty election entrusted to his possession by a supreme court order and intimated that he might be obliged to bring contempt proceedings against the board of elections. Certain boxes containing ballots cast in Manhattan were stored under the direction of the board, and a search that continued un til late today failed to reveal their whereabouts. According to the attor ney-general, Commisioner Pooling re fused to surrender these particular bal lot boxes or make known where they could be found. To Prevent Tampering With Boxes. To prevent, he says, possible tam pering with the ballots which may be needed for a recount under the action begun by the State to oust Mayor Mc Clellan and seat Wm. Re Hearst as Mayor, Attorney-General Jackson, act ing under orders from tho supreme court, caused raids to be made eariy today at such storage places through out Greater New York as were known to his representatives. After some de lay, the greater number of the boxes were located, newly sealed and placed under guard of officers representing the attorney-general. It was toward night when a hitch developed in Man- | hattan and the deputies assigned to the work reported that many boxes | stored in that borough could not be lo cated. Later, Commissioner Dooling ] was found at the office of Corporation Counsel Eillson and formally served with a copy of Justice Hendricks’ order commanding those in custody of the ballot boxes to deliver tho same to tho attorney-general. Air. Jackson said that the commissioner refused to obey the court order, which, the attorney- general added, will, however, have to f the few. pro trusts and monopo- many of which are organized for purpose of crushing out competi tion and which have hern robbing the people of untold millions.” Air. Overman pictured the end of State sovereignty as the result of the present desire of encroachment on the reserved rights of the people. If more power is needed, he suggested, the way is clear. "Let an amendment be submitted to the States. In any event let the people be consulted: let their sacred will be known: let their con sent be given to the surrender of many of their rights. Without their consent let nothing be done by an unwarrant ed construction." Mr. Overman held there was no limit to the power of Congress to deal with commerce which is interstate in its na ture. He heartily endorsed recent measures exercising this control, such as the rate bill, the pure food law and the meat inspection regulation. There was a decided distinction between reg ulating interstate comnierae and mak ing regulations concerning production which might become interstate commerce, latter class of industry, There has been an indiscriminate crusade against American commercial enterprises. This most extraordinary ATTACK UPON BUSINESS corpora tions has involved manufacturers of nearly all kinds, has spared few pro* ducers of any sort. Each and every one of these enterprises perhaps deserved some criticism. Whether their opponents have dealt with them justly or not, they are prompt ly adjusting themselves to the new conditions, and demonstrating to the business world that in the larger things they have been governed by sound financial integrity, even if in some few particulars the times were ripe for reform. Like other great industries. THE PATENT MEDICINE INDUSTRY is coming in for its share of censure. Secrecy of composition has been the main war-cry against these medicines. It was admitted on the part of patent medicine manufacturers, that their formulae were kept secret They felt obliged to do this, in order to prevent imitators from imposing on the public. After a proprietor had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in advertising a remedy, the secrecy of his formula was his only protection agaiast others stepping in and reaping the reward of his tremendous outlay in advertising. The unwillingness of patent medicine manufacturers to reveal the in gredients of their compound was perfectly natural. They felt that they de served protection from the government the same as any other citizen who procures a patent on an invention or a process. BUT THIS CONSIDERA TION DID NOT KEEP BACK THE CRITICS. The agitation was kept up until Congress enacted a law making it obliga tory on the part of such manufacturers to expose certain ingredients on the label of each package. It was thought best to include alcohol in the list of objectionable ingred ients. This being the only objectionable ingredient contained in Peruna, the manufacturer of this very excellent remedy promptly obeyed the law. Indeed, he voluntarily went farther than this. Dr. Hartman, after serious consideration of the matter, has concluded to put PLAINLY ON TH^ T-ABif. OF EACH BOTTLE the principal active constituents of which Peruna is con- ‘ posed. While we do not agree that the claim against secrecy has been a just one, yet from this time on we have concluded to take Peruna out of the list of secret patent medicines. Pe-ru-na Continues to Have the Confidence of the People. We now offer Peruna to the public as a regular pliarmaccu tical product. It is just as ethi cal as any compound put up by the medical pro fessi on. Nc straining of medical ethics cai ^ find any fault with it. THE PRINCIPAL ACTIVE INGREDIENTS are prominently incorporated in tht label on the bottle, that the people may know that the claims made for Peruna have a true justification. The only departure we shall make from medical ethics in the conduct of Peruna affairs in the future, is th8 fact that we shall continue to advertise and sell our product TO THE PEOPLE. If we would agree to sell to doctors only, to advertise for doctors only, then the medical fraternity would be obliged to recognize Peruna as being entirely within their approval. BUT WE SHALL NOT DO THIS. We shall continue to offer Peruna to the people. We shall continue to tg- commercial convev to the people our claims for Peruna as a household remedy.
