Give Stomach ■
What it N eeds
The Alkaline Effect of Stuart’s
Dyspepsia Tablets Usually Cor
rects the Stomach Faults that
Provoke Attacks of Indi
gestion or • Dyspepsia.
To sit back after a good meal and
know there is not going to be sour
risings, gas, drowsiness and discom
fort is the logical result of using
Stuabt’s Dyspepsia Tablets immedi
ately after eating. Most people be-
Heve they can trace each attack of
indigestion to the something they ate
and can still “taste.” And it sur
prises them, invariably, to note how
fuickly relief comes after using, one
or two of these tablets. Whether it
is highly seasoned food, rich pastry,
the heavy, hearty foods or some one
particular offender the relief comes
just the same. Those who are sus
ceptible to attacks of indigestion or
dyspepsia should try Stuart’s Dys
pepsia Tablets as they supply the
stomach with an alkaline effect just
as it does naturally when it is work
ing in a perfectly healthy condition.
Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets are so
-widely known and used that you can
get them in any drug store in the
United States and Canada at 50
cents a box.— (Advt.)

BIRTHS IN NATION
SHOW INCREASE
FOR TWO MONTHS
/
NEW YORK, March 11.—The cen
sus bureau in Washington is pub
lishing vital statistics for 1920 as
fast as they can be compiled, but
information gathered indicates that
the enumerators will never catch up
with th® population.
Reports from cities throughout the
country showed a general increase
in births during the first two months
of this year, compared with the cor
responding period of last year. This
increase was practically uniform in
all sections. Milwaukee and Seat
tle were the only places to report
a decrease.
Adoptions, wherever figures were
available, generally showed even a
greater ratio of increase than births.
Many cities reported a commensu
rate decrease in the nuniber of ba
bies abandoned by their parents. The
desire of mothers who cannot sup
port their babies to assure a good
hp'me for them, rather than trust
to the comparative uncertainty of
an institution, has been evinced
through several instances of babies
being “auctioned off” in some cases
even before birth. Persons 'adopt
ing babies generally want them ex
tremely young. Girls appear to have
a slightly better chance than boys
of obtaining foster parents.
New York reported 22,535 births
this year, compared with 21,165 last
year. Foster parents usually prefer
girl babies one year of age or un

Negro Is Electrocuted
In Kentucky Prison
EDDYVILLE, Ky., March 11.—Pe
trie Kimbrough, alias Will Lockett,
convicted slayer of Geneva Hardman
and confessed slayer of four other
women, died in the electric chair at
Eddyville prison at 4:32 a. m. this
morning.
Guards appeared at Kimbrough’s
cell in death row at 4:14 a. m., and
immediately escorted the negro to the
chair house. There were slight signs
of emotion in his face as he was
placed in the electric chair and the
black cap lowered over his head.
Prisoner Electrician Collier turned
on the current which killed Kim
brough within fifteen seconds.
Two brothers of the Hardman girl
and seventeen Lexington citizens, to
gether with eight soldiers and twelve
prison guards, witnessed the execu
tion, which apparently was carried
out without a hitch in pre-arranged
plans.
The negro refused to make a state
ment when he was taken from his
cell. Continually, however, during
the night he was heard praying aloud
and singing religious hymns. He de
clared yesterday that he wan ready
to die and that he prayed for the lit
tle ten-year-old Hardman girl wnom
he killed, and the errtire Hardman
family.

SENATOR SMITH
' STILL HOPES FOR
PACT ADOPTION
(The Atlanta Jr.urnal News Bureau)
623 Riggs Building.
BY THEODORE TILLER
WASHINGTON, March 11.—Few
Democratic senators were optimists
today concerning ratification of the
treaty. Senator Hoke Smith, of
Georgia, was an exception, and an
nounced that he would not abandon
the fight for compromise until the
senate had actually beaten the treaty
once more.
Senator Simmons, of North Caro
lina, co-author of the so-called Wat
son-Simmons compromise, which was
finally rejected by the Republicans
Tuesday after they had shown an ap
parent willingness to accept it, was
low spirited and gloomy. The Wat
son-Simmons subsitute follows, with
some slight changes in phraseology,
a compromise reservation on article
ten which Senator Smith suggested
five months ago.
“You may record me as still hope
fil of treaty ratification,” said Sena
tor Hoke Smith today. “I shall re
fuse to abandon efforts until I know
all opportunities have been lost and
the senate actually votes to reject
the treaty. It seems hard to believe
that some agreement may not be
reached on compromise reservations
that will enlist sixty-four votes. In
common with Senator Simmons and
other Democrats, we have worked
for several days on Republicans to
get a satisfactory substitute. Per
sonally I shall continue these efforts
and I still remain hopeful, although
the situation has been somewhat dis
couraging.” t
Senator Smith recalled that he and
Senator Simmons and other Demo
cratic negotiators, had been assured
of twent-eight to thirty votes in fa
vor of the substitute reservation to
article ten, when the Republican
leaders unexpectedly kicked over the
traces and withdrew all offers to ne
gotiate further.
Republicans Back Out
Republican leaders, after leading
the administration forces up to the
mountain tops and showing them the
fields of promise lying below, un
expectedly marched down the hill
again and served notice on the Dem
ocrats that the majority would not
compromise. This notice stunned
the hopeful Democrats who had been
able to count as many as thirty Dem
ocrats who would vote for the so
called Watson-Simmons compromise
reservation.
Another ultimatum from the ir
reconcilable Republicans, who sent
word to Senator Lodge demanding
that he be unyielding, and a final
decision by Senator Lodge himself
that he would not stand for the
substitute reservation, were the un
derlying causes of the Republican
decision to call off the negotiations.
Senator Overman saw no rift of
sunshine in the treaty clouds. As
a Democrat who has voted with the
administration throuv’mut, and who,
too, was hopeful of some agreement
in the closing hours of the treaty
debate, Mr. Overman regretfully said
late today that the deadlock seemed
more unbreakable than ever.
“It looks hopeless to me,” said
Senator Overman. “The Republicans
have withdrawn all promises of a
get-together and I see practically
no promise of agreement.”
Senator Glass, of Virginia, another
administration Democrat, succinctly
said:
“If there has been any improve
ment in the situation I have not no
ticed it.”
Average Man Mystified
With the opposing factions so far
apart the average man, in all prob
ability, will wonder why after read
ing and comparing the proposed sub
stitute for the Lodge reservations, J
and the Lodge reservation itself. |
Texts published below, about;
which there is such radical division J
in the senate, doubtless will mean.
about the same to the “milk man in I
Omaha,” or Atlanta, or any other
place. Why the Republicans should,
kick over the Watson-Simmons sub
stitute because it is alleged to be
so different from the Lodge reser
vations perhaps will remain a mys
tery to him.
Once before, the Republicans dash
ed the hopes of the Democrats after
almost agreeing to a compromise on'
the Lodge reservations to article ten.
This was in the bi-partisan confer
ences. When the conference adjourn
ed one night, Democrats believed
agreement in sight. The next morn
ing the Republican members, after
lhe memorable conference between
Senator Lodge and the irreconcil
ables, gave notice that the confer
ences were off. On a somewhat
broadened scale, the latest notice
from the Republican side was sen
ate history repeating itself.
The .Watson-Simmons compromise,
so-called, was worked out by Sena
tors Watson, Kellogg and McNary,
(.publicans, and Senators SimmonJ,
Overman, Hoke Smith 4 and other
Democrats. In substantially the
same form, it was sponsored by Sen
ator Simmons as a member of the
bi-partisan conference.
The Compromiee Proposal
The compromise, which had been
tentatively accepted by the Repub
licans, read as follows:
“The United States assumes no
obligations to employ its military or
naval forces, its resources or any
form of economic discrimination to
preserve the territorial integrity or
political independence of any other
country, or to interfere in contro
versies between nations, whether
members of league or not, under the
provisions of article ten, or to em
ploy the military or naval forces of
the United States under any article
of the treaty for any purpose, unless
in any particular case the congress,
in exercise of full liberty of action,
shall by act or joint resolution so
declare.”
The above is the reservation which
the North Carolina senators told
Senator Watson could receive twen
ty-eight Democratic votes already
polled. In addition, Senator Sim
mons promised two unpolled votes,
making thirty minority to join with
the majority on ratification.
War Claims Board to
Be Dissolved in June
WASHINGTON, March 11.—Hav
ing disposed of 24,000 uncompleted
contracts for munitions and supplies,

•reated for this work after the ar
mistice, will be disbanded the end of

nounced today.
To fulfill the 24,000 contracts
would have cost the government
nearly $2,500,000, Mr. Baker said,
while the adjustment has been made
for $304,000,000. Claims arising out
of the contracts to the number of
about 3,300 remain, but jt is be
lieved these will have been settled
by July.

Let Hoover's Name Go
On the Ballot, Declares
Editor Rowe, of Athens
BY ROGERS WINTER,
(Staff Correspondent of The Journal.)
ATHENS, Ga., March 11.—Hoover
supporterb are so numerous in Ath
ens that all you have to do is to
stand on a street corner in the down
town district and stop them as they
come by. Undoubtedly the former
food administrator would carry
Clarke county if his name were al
lowed on the ballot of the prefer
ential primary.
The situation here furnishes an
Interesting commehtary on the ac
tion of the sub-committee in ruling
him off the ballot on the ground that
he is not a Democrat. Probably it
will be conceded that no community
in the state is more intelligent or
patriotic than this. Here in the en
virons of the University of Geor
gia has been developing for genera
tions an atmosphere of public spirit,
of intelligent citizenship, of culture
and refinement, of staunch democ
racy. Certainly there is no local
constituency in Georgia b.etter Qual
ified to pass upon the democracy of
Herbert Hoover than are the voters
of this city and county. And against
the.action of the sub-committee on
rules of the Democratic state execu
tive committee, barring Hoover from
the ballot because, in effect, the
Democrats of Georgia have no busi
ness to vote for him, is ranged an
overwhelming sentiment here that
Hoover’s democracy is perfectly
sound and that his availability is
far superior to that of any other
candidate the Democratic party’could
nominate.
One of Hoover’s staunchest sup
porters here is Judge Andrew Cobb,
whose father was the famous
Howell Cobb, Democratic speaker of
the national house of representa
tives. Judge Cobb has served on
the supreme court of Georgia with
eminent distinction. During the war
he was a clarion-voiced leader in
every patriotic enterprise and the in
veterate enemy of disloyalty and
slackerism He is satisfied with
Hoover’s democracy and is deeply
aroused over the action of the sub
committee in barring him from the
primary.
Hugh Bowe’s Position
Editor Hugh Rowe, of the Athens
Banner, who has had several edi
torials criticizing the action of the
subcommittee, was interviewed by
The Journal correspondent.
"I am for Palmer,” he said. “I
came out for him before the sub
committee ruled Hoover off the bal
lot. But, nevertheless, I think the
subcommittee’s action is an outrage
ous piece of petty politics. What I
have had to say about the subcom
mittee’s action is in no way personal
concerning the members of the sub
committee. They are all nice fellows
and friends of mine, but they made
a serious mistake, and it has done
the party no good. Hoover sentiment
is very strong here, and the people
•resent the action of the subcommit
tee. We ought to have a meeting of
the whole state executive commit
tee, and let them h?ar from a dele
gation of Democrats representing
those who wish to place HOover’s
name upon the ballot, and decide the
question as it ought to be decided.
Although, as I say, Palmer is my
choice, I believe in fair play. If the
Democrats of Georgia wish to choose
Hoover as their preference, let them
do it. They are entirely capable of
exercising a sound political judg
ment. If they are not. then we ought

never to have any primary or any
election.”
Thomas J. Shackleford, a promi
nent Athens lawyer and one of the
leaders in the American Cotton as
sociation, is just ba6k from Arkansas
and other western States in the in
terest of the association.
“I was astonished to find such a
general sentiment for Hoover in that
part of the country,” he told The
Journal correspondent.
His brother, Frank Shackleford, is
one of the most enthusiastic Hoover
supporters in the state, and one of
the severest critics of the action of
the sub-committee.
Harry Hodgson’s Views
Harry Hodgson is one of the lead
ing business men of this section of
the state. He is for Hoover, out
spokenly and emphatically. He is
outraged over the action of the
committe, which, as he says, amounts
to complete disfranchisement, so far
as he Is concerned.
“Do we want to elect a Democrat
ic president?” said he, discussing the
matter with The Journal correspond
ent. “Do we want to keep the con
trol of the government in Demo
cratic hands? Do we want to put
new life, new power and new en
thusiasm in the Democratic party?
Certainly we do. Then how shall we
go about it? Is there any better
way to do it than by electing a Demo
cratic president? If there is, I would
like for the sub-committee to tell me
what it is.
“No president, either Democratic
or Republican, has ever been elected
by a mere calling of the roll of the
members of his party, and none ever
will be. The independent vote is
always? the deciding factor in a
presidential election. This year that
vote is a great deal more numerous
and a great deal more independent
than ever before. A strict party vote
wille'not win this year for General
Wood as the Republican nominee, or
for anybody nominated by the Demo
cratic party.
“Certainly the Republicans haven’t
any idea in the back part of their
heads of nominating Hoover. Why,
because his identification is very de
cidedly with the Democratic admin
istration. He is in away a member
of President Wilson’s cabinet. He
came out of the war with the most
brilliant reputation of any ihan in
any country. If his political princi
ples were in accord with the Republi
can party, I have no doubt they would
nominate him. But they are not in
accord with what the Republicans
stand for. They embody the very
essence of democracy. It is gen
erally conceded everywhere that
Hoover will command a larger sup
port among the independent vote than
afiy other candidate we could nomi
nate. If we want to win, let’s nom
inate him. If we want to lose, let’s
put up a politician who represents
nothing but partisanship, and kiss
the presidency good-bye.”
Petition For Hoover
Mr. Hodgson is preparing to
launch a petition addressed to the
subcommltee requesting them to
rescind their action with reference
to Hoover and permit the Democrats
of Georgia a free and untrammeled
expression. It was his intention to
start the petition two weeks ago, but
he had to go to New York on busi
ness and has just got back.
“I am satisfied- I can get a
thousand names signed to it without
any difficulty,” said he.

CLARK DECLINES
USE OF NAME IN
PRIMARIES HERE
(The Atlanta Journal News Bureau)
623 Riggs Building.
BY. THEODORE TILLER
WASHINGTON, March 11.—One
more candidate is dropped from the
presidential primary ballot in Geor
gia by the letter sent to Secretary
Gardner, of the state commitee, by
former Speaker diamp Clark, of Mis
souri.
It is known that Mr. Clark feels
.that if he should enter the Georgia
primaries he wtttld be under a sort
of obligation to ®nter other states,
and Mr. iClark wants uninstructed
delegations to San Francisco. He is
also averse to having his name go on
the Georgia ballot when he is unable
to go to that state and make a cam
paign. In other words, Mr. Clark
does not want his name on the Geor
gia ballot unless he gets actually
into the running and makes a fight
for the delegation from Georgia and
this he is not inclined to do.
Letter to Gardner
Mr. Clark’s views were expressed
in the following' letter to Hiram L.
Gardner, of Eatonton, secretary of
the Georgia Democratic committee:
“I am profoundly grateful to my
Georgia friends who have suggested
that my name should be placed on
the ticket at the preferential presi
dential primary.
! “My own opinion is that it is best
■ not to do that. In my judgment the
■ San Francisco convention should be
absolutely a consulting body to do
two things: t
“1st —Adopt a thoroughly Demo
cratic platform made of time-tried
and fundamental Democratic prin
ciples progressive and up-to-date;
“2d—On such Democratic platform
nominate the ablest and most thor
ough-going Democrat that can be
found.
“No man will decline a presiden
tial nomination tendered freely by a
great party, for the presidency of
the United States is not only the
most powerful office known to our
political system, but the greatest ever
devised by the wit of man. It should
not be bestowed on any man to grati
fy his personal ambition but solely
for the good of the country; for
the only reason for a political party
is to-promote the prosperity, the hap
piness and glory of the American
people; so believing, I think it -would
be fortunate for both the party and
the country if all the delegates to
San Francisco should go uninstruct
ed so as to be free after consulta
tion to agree on the best men pos
sible for president and vice presi
dent on a platform thoroughly Demo
cratic in every plank.
“The record of the Democratic ad
ministration and the Democratic con
gress is beyond all praise. On it
we stand and on it we should win
to the end that the national and state
governments shall be maintained in
their full constitutional vigor and
that law and order may prevail every
where under our flag. But even if
we should fail with such a plat
form and such candidates, our party
would emerge from the contest in
splendid fighting trim for future con
flicts.”

Why Druggists Rscommend
Swamp-Root
For many years druggists have
watched with much interest the re
markable record maintained by Dr.
Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great kid
ney, liver and bladder medicine.
It i's a physician’s prescription.
Swamp-Root is a strengthening
medicine. It helps the kidneys, liv
er and bladder do the -work nature
intended they should do.
Swamp-Root has stood the test of
years. It is sold by all druggists on
its merit and it should help you. No
other kidney medicine has so many
friends.
Be sure to get Swamp-Root and
start treatment at once.
However, if you wish first to test
this great preparation send ten cents
to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N.
Y„ for a sample bottle. When writ
ing be sure and mention The Tri-
Weekly Journal.—(Advt.)
