Acts On The Liver,
Regulates Kidneys,
Purifies the Blood
The liver is the largest and most
important organ in the body, and
when the liver refuses to act, it
causes constipation. biliousness,
headaches, indigestion, gas, sour
stomach, bad breath, dysentery,
diarrhoea, pains in back and under
shoulder blades and under ribs on
right side. These symptoms lead to
colds, influenza or other serious
troubles unless corrected immedi
ately.
An inactive liver places an extra
burden on the kidneys, which over
taxes them and causes the blood
to absorb and carry into the sys
tem the impurities that the liver
and kidneys have failed to elimin
ate.
When you treat the liver alone,
you treat only a third of your
trouble, and that is why you have
to take purgatives every few
nights. Calomel or other ordinary
laxatives do not go far enough. If
you would treat your kidneys and
blood while treating the liver, you
would put your entire system in
order and frequent purgatives would
then be unnecessary.
Dr. W. L. Hitchcock many years
ago recognized these important
facts, and after much study and
research, compounded what is now
known as Dr. Hitchcock’s Liver,
Kidney and Blood Powders, three
medicines combined in one. This
was the Doctor’s favorite prescrip
tion for many years, being used by
his patients with marked success.
It is a harmless vegetable remedy
that will not make you sick, and
you may eat anything you like
while taking it.
Get a large tin box from your
druggist or dealer for 25c, under his
personal guarantee that it will give
relief, tone up the liver, stimulate
the kidneys to healthy action and
thereby purify the blood. Keep it in
the home for ready use whenever
any member of the family begins
to feel “out of sorts.” It will
prove a household friend and a val
uable remedy.—(Advt.)
Rupture Kills

Seven thousand persons each year are laid
eway—the burial certificate being marked
“Rupture.'* Why? Because the unfortunate
ones bad neglected themselves or had been
merely taking care of the sign (swelling) of
the affliction and paying no attention to
the cause. What are you doing? Are you
neglecting yourself by wearing a truss, ap
pliance, or whatever name you choose to call
it? At best, the truss is only a makeshift.
. a false prop against a collapsing wall—-and
cannot be expected to act as more than a
mere mechanical support. The binding pres
sure retards blood circulation, thus robbing
the weakened muscles of that which they
need most—nourishment. * " ’

FHIENDS OF BONUS
rush bill through
BYURGEMAJOBITY
WASHINGTON, May 29. —The sol
dier bonus bill with benefits of
more than $1,400,000,300 for ap
proximately 3,500,000 of the ex-serv
ice men was passed and sent to the
, senate today by the house.
It received a majority of more
than three to one, after a special
rule was adopted blocking all
amendments. The final vote was
289 to 92, or 35 votes more than
the necessary two-thirds majority
» required under the parliamentary
procedure to keep out amendments.
Additional taxes of approximate
ly $1,350,000,000, the payment of
which would be started next De
cember and continue for three
years, are imposed by the bill. None
of the benefits granted will be
available until June 1, 1921.
The service men are given the
option of cash bonus, home aid, land
settlement, paid-up insurance or
vocational training, and the taxes
are imposed upon real estate trans
fers, stocks, grain exchange trans
actions, with increases over the
present surtaxes and tobacco levies.
Greatest Peace Time Bill
The measure is the greatest peace
time revenue bill in th history of
the country, but debate on it was
limited to forty minutes over the
protests of the Democrats and in |
surgent Republicans who sought to
amend the measure. During the de
bate, the house was in an uproar
No immediate action on the
measure is contemplated in the sen
ate and the charge was made fre
quently In the house today that it
will, be killed there. It is virtual
ly certain that no action will be
taken before the proposed adjourn
ment or recess the latter part of
next week.
Forty Republicans and fifty-two
Democrats voted against the bill
on the final roll call.
The fight over the bonus opened
with an effort to prevent the sub
mission of rule suspending the
rules for six days. Representative
Mann, Illinois, who led the Repub
lican bonus opponents, and Repre
sentative Garrett, Tennessee, claim
ed that the rule was not in order be
cause it prevented a motion to re
commit the bill.
Birst Tost Vote
After a sharp debate this was
overruled by Speaker Gillett. The
first test vote came on the motion
of Republican Leader Mondell to lay '
on the table an appeal from the,
decision of the chair, made by Repre
sentative Garrett, Tennessee.
The bonus came through by a
margin of three on this vote, the
count being 192 to 189. Had this
motion been defeated the bill prob
ably would have been thrown open
to 'amendments, with a filibuster
likely.
The nthe bonus opponents began
to weaken and after a sharp debate,
the rule suspending the rules was
adopted by a vote of 220 to 165.
Chairman Fordney immediately call
ed up his bill and after a short de
bate, in which about twenty mem
bers participated, he made a mo
tion to pass the bill under a sus
pension of the rules. It was on this
vote that the opposition weakened,
and the bill received the necessary
two-thirds’ majority.
The first vote or 192 to 159, com
ing on a parliamentary question, in
dicated that advocates of the bill
were short by sixty-four votes of the
two-thirds majority while the second
by which the suspension program was
adopted 200 to 165 showed they lack
ed only 37 votes.
The third test was on applying
the pension program to the bill it
self, which was carried 175 to 91, or
two less than the required number
.or passage.
Between roll calls the dabte was
heated. The Democrats aided by a
minority of the Republicans attack
ed the gag rule” of the majority.
, Advocates of the suspension pro
gram, declared a vote against it was
a vote against the bill itself and
gradually they wore down the oppo
sition, the final vote recording 4(
Republicans and 52 Democrats in
opposition.
Supporters of the measure declar
ed that the bill was just to the ex
service men for losses they suffered
during the war, but its opponents
denounced it as a “political trick’
to win the soldier vote through an
attempt to “commercialize patriot
ism.”
Democrats Swung
Only thirteen Democrats voted to
bring Up the bill on the first test
vote, but on final passage nearly 100
more swung away and voted “aye.”
A group of forty Republicans stood
pat against the measure through the
entire fight.
Several of the prominent men of
the house opposed the bill, includ
ing “Uncle Joe” Cannon, Representa
tive Fess, chairman of the Republi
can congresion committee, Represen
tative Flood, Virginia, chairman of
the Democratic national committee:
Representative Garner, Texas, Demo
cratic whip; Chairman Good, of ap
propriations committee; Chairman
Kahn, California, of the military af
fairs committee, and Chairman But
ler, of the military affairs commit
tee.
Mr. Cannon, after stating the
measure would mean a big increase
in the cost of living, said he had re
ceived far more protests than re
quests for the measure.

Mo., suspected of poisoning his wife.
The wealthiest farmer in the
county is Eber White, Effie Deck
er’s father.
Last December Ed Decker died.
Two weeks- later, Mrs. Bruce died,
with similar symptoms. A few
days later Mrs. Decker went down
the road to Bruce’s home and be
came his housekeeper. A buzz of
scandal started.
Decker’s brothers started an in
vestigation. Decker’s body was

exhumed. The State University re
ported “enough arsenic to kill three
persons.”
Mrs. Decker was arrested, re
leased on $15,000 bond furnished by
her father, and went back to
Bruce’s house. Then the body of
Mrs. Bruce was exhumed. A pre
liminary report indicated arsenic
in deadly quantities.
County riames Up
The county flamed up. Bruce was
arrested as he worked in his fields.
Mrs. Decker’s bond was revoked. She
was taken to the Stockton jail, and
Bruce, partly to keep the two
separate and partly to avoid any
possible attempt at violence, was
taken to Nevada, Mo.
Mrs. Decker maintains her in
nocence. So does Bruce.
Eber White says he will furnish
the money for his daughter’s de
fense, “I talked the thing over with
her when they took up Decker’s
body,” he told me. “I suid ‘Effie,
if you want to leave the country.
I’ll give you the money to go.’ But
she said she didn’t want to go. I’ll
see that she has a fair trial. If she
did it she ought to be punished.”

GOV. ALLEN AND
GOMPERS DEBATE
RIGHT TO STRIKE
NEW YORK, May 29. —The rela
tions of capital and labor; the right
to strike and its legitimacy as re
gards the effect on the public; the
Kansas industrial court law and its
significance to the future of the
working man. were intertwined in a
remarkable debate Friday night in
Carnegie hall between Samuel Gom
pers, president of the American Fed
eration of , Labor, and Governor
Henry J. Allen, of Kansas.
Governor Allen’s main contention
was that government has the right
to protect the public against strikes
when its welfare is imperiled, while
Mr. Gompers held to the argument
that no law can prevent a man from
stopping work if by doing so he may
benefit himself and his family. Gom
pers labeled the Kansas industrial
court law the “un-American slave
law,” and Governor Allen declared
he had taken away from Gompers his
divine right to order a man to quit
work.
The oratory of the debaters was
punctuated with frequent cheers and
boos of adherents of each side and
occasional questions shouted from
the floor and the balconies.
In support of the right to strike,
Gompers declared that the coal
miners’ strike took boys out of
the mines; that the textile workers'
strike brought children out of tne
mills and put them in the school
room, while the strikes in the
needles trades broke up the sweat
shops jvhen laws had failed to do so.
Governor Alien’s industrial com
mandment was. "You shall not con
spire to shut down the industry nec
essary to the welfare of the peo
ple.”
“When the general public says we
have had enough of this,” he said,
“it’s over.”
“Who controls the divine right to
quit work?” Allen asked. He was
answered with cheers and boos.
The debate called for no decision,
the committees in charge having
purposely divided the house be
tween supporters of each speaker.
North Carolina Cities
Win in Complaint on
Atlanta Freight Rates
An Associated Press dispatch
from Washington . Saturday after
noon announced that the Interstate
commerce commission had rendere
ed a decision in favor of the North
Carolina state railroad commission
in its complaint against the rela
tionship between freight rates from
Virginia cities to Atlanta and North
Carolina cities to Atlanta.
Edgar Watkins, the well-known
Atlanta attorney, represented the
North Carolina commission in its
complaint. It was shown that
though the Average distance from
Virginia cities to Atlanta was I>4
miles greater than the average dis
tance from North Carolina cities to
Atlanta, the rate was the same. It
was claimed that this discrepancy in
favor of Virginia cities practically
excluded North Carolina cities from
the Atlanta market.
The interstate commerce commis
sion, finding in favor of the com
plaint, has ordered a reduction of
the rates from North Carolina
cities to Atlanta, which was asked
in the petition. '

stances surrounding the death of

must be made on one or the other
of these forms.
According to the Washington dis
patch, the Palmer delegates have
made out credentials, on the form
provided for delegates elected in a
primary, and these have been certi
fied by Hiram L. Gardner, of Eaton
ton, the secretary of' the Democratic
state executive committee of Geor
gia. On these credentials, it ap
pears, the Palmer delegates will un
dertake to get themselves seated in
the national convention.
The regular delegates elected by
the state convention will undertake
to expose what they term the “ab
surdity” of the Palmer credentials
by showing that no delegates were
elected in the primary held in Geor
gia. They will show that the sys
tem of voting for delegates in the
presidential primary, as used in
some states, was not the system
used in Georgia, but the voters ex
pressed a direct choice for the presi
dential candidates. They will fur
ther show that the Democratic state
executive committee in calling the
primary also called a state conven
tion to be held for the purpose of
electing delegates to the national
convention. They will show that
this convention, held in Atlanta May
18 pursuant to custom and prece
dent and law, elected delegates to
Francisco, and they will claim
that they themselves as the dele
gates so elected are the Only ones
having genuine credentials.
The regular delegates will under
take to show that the Palmer dele
gates have no credentials of any
character. Their contention will be
that the Palmer- delegates cannot
claim credentials from a state con
vention, for the reason that the con
vention held in Atlanta on May J 8 ex
plicitly voted down the Palmer dele
gates and elected the list nominated
tn opposition to the Palmer list. Their
contention will be that the Palmer
delegates cannot claim credentials
from a state primary, for the reason
tjiat the voters in the primary did
not Vote for delegates, but voted di
rectly.Yor presidential nominees.
Thus they will claim that the Pal
mer delegates have no standing on
either leg, but are merely rump del
egates attempting to force them
selves into the national convention
in defiance of the wishes of a sov
ereign state convention.
Arrangements for making out the
credentials of the regular delegates
on the form provided for delegates
elected by state conventions are
proceeding apace. They will prob
ably be in the hands of the secretary
of the Democratic national commit
tee in the next few days. All other
details of the case to be presented at
San Francisco in opposition to the
claims of the Palmer delegates are
going ahead rapidly in the hands of
the steering committee composed of
Colonel H. H. Perry, Thomas W.
Hardwick and T. W. Hawse.
The regular delegates will leave
Atlanta on the morning of Saturday,
June 19, and will anrive in San Fran
cisco on the morning of Saturday,
June 27. They will go byway of St.
Louis. Kansas City, Denver, Colorado
Springs, Salt Lake City and Los
Angeles. They will return byway
of Portland, Spokane and St. Paul. J.
R. Smith, chairman of the committee
on transportation, states that res
ervations are being made rapidly.
Suicide Verdict in
Death of Prominent
Macon Woman
MACON, Ga., May 23.—“ Death by
drowning, and the same was suicide,”
was the verdict of the coroner’s jury
that investigated the death of Mrs.
M. J. Carroll, prominent Macon
woman, whose body was taken from
the Ocfnulgee river here late Fri
day'. No additional evidence was
found -to substantiate the theory that
she jumped into the river to end her
life.
The body was found within a
short distance of where her sister,
Mrs. Kate Long, committed suicide
by drowning last November. Both
were sisters of A. J. Long, well
known local wholesale grocer.
Mrs. Carroll left home Friday
morning with her oldest daughter,
Marie, and came down town in a
street car. On the way she talked
queerly, giving directions about what
was to be done with certain things
if anything unexpected happened to
her. When her daughter left her to
>o to a dentist’s office she was great
ly worried about the unusual re
marks made by her mother. With
out keeping the engagement, she re
turned to look for her mother, who
had disappeared. The search ended
in finding of the body in the river
about 100 feet above the Spring
street bridge. Mrs. Carroll is be
lieved to have been mentally de
ranged, as she brooded a great deal
over the death of her sister.

surely as calomel, but it doesn‘3
