SENATOR CLAY CALLS HALT
When the naval appropriation bill
came up in the Senate last week, carry
ing an appropriation of ¢133,000,000
Senator Clay attacked it, saying the
country had gone wild over sea arma
ment,
‘“We have lost our heads,” he said,
**and if we don’t stop we will bankrupt
the nation.”’
Asserting that the appropriation for
the navy proposed for the present year
averages $2 per head for each man,
woman and child in the country, he
said:
‘‘ln the past twelve years Congress
has passed laws authorizing twenty
new battleships. Weare now expend
ing almost $140,000,000 a year against
$28,000,000 twelve years ago. Apparent
1y we haven’t the courage to 8t op.
We are gone wild—absolutely wild In
this day of high Christian civilization
the nations are exhausting in their
military expenditures the resources
that ought to go to feeding the hungry.
‘We ought to stop and think.”
By quoting Senator Hale as author
ity for the statement that each of the
proposed battleships would cost not‘
less than $16,000,000, Mr. Clay arousedl
general interest. Mr. Gallinger ex
pressed doubt and adduced figures to
show that the cost would not exceed
$10,000,000,
Mr. Hale not only sustained Mr. Clay
but added to his figures. He spoke of
the vessels as completely armored and
equipped and said the total cost of
putting one of these vessels in the
water probably would be nearer $lB,-
000,000 than $16,000,000.
State Senator H. H. Perry, of Gaines
ville, announces that-he is a candidate
for Governor and stands for the *‘pro
gressive policies of the campaign of
1906."” He says: ‘“‘l am no adept at |
politics and may not be elected, but, |
brethren, I can at least keep the flagt
flying. It is only one issue: Govem-l
ment by the people and for the people |
and not by and for special iuterests.”!

| SENATOR CLAY'S SPLENDID WORK
[ “For a sick man, Senator Clay, of
| Georgia, is about the most active and
| useful member of congress we have
'ever seen,” commented The Washing
gum Herald last week, alluding to the
;Senator’s successful assault on the
railroad bill. The comment was true,
and, moreover, Senator Clay merited
the praise. He is recognized as one of
the most resourceful and vigilant mem
bers of the United States senate, and
his record of work since he returned
to Washington has been remarkable. |
Despite his ill health, Senator Clay
has not missed a session of the senate
since he reached Washington on Feb-‘
ruary Ist. He has been in his seat ev- |
ery day at noon, when the president’s
gavel fell anl he has remained con
tinuously on the job until the senatel
adjourned. Furthermore—and more
important, also—Senator Clay has not
missed a meeting of one of his com
mittees since his return to Washing
ton. Few of the able-bodied, hale and
hearty statesmen who sit in the Unit
ed States senate can point to such a
record.
|* X X
’ The junior senator from Georgia has
had a tough time of it. He has suf
fered as few men suffer, but he has
held duty above comfort, contrary to
the advice of friends, and has found
his way to the capitol every day there
has been a session of the senate, pains,
aches and sleepless nights to the con
trary, notwithstanding.
A senator has a wider field than a
representative in congress. He repre
sents an entire state, and upon him de
volves the duty of guarding the inter
ests of all. His correspondence is nat
urally heavy, and the demands upon
hig time by visiting constituents and
departmental clerks from his state
are many. All of this must be attend
ed to before, or after the senate meets,
and it must not interfere with a sena
tor’s committee work. |
Senator Clay has kept jam-up with
his correspondence, attended to every
request, has looked after visiting con
stituents and met the demands of Geor
gians in government departments—
and he has done much of it when he
was so sick as to scarcely be able to
hold his head up.
* k %k
The appropriation committee is the
most important body of congress. It
provides the means to keep the ship
of state sailing on. The government
spends, now, over a billion of dollars
annually.
Senator Clay helps hold the keys to
Uncle Sam’s money box—the box from
which comes the billion dollars every
year. The Republican party, being in
power, controls the expenditure, but
the Democrats see that it is not di
verted from its proper channels; that
is, they see to it in so far as it is pos
sible,
During the present session of con
gress, Senator Clay has been the only
Democrat to regularly attend the meet
ings of the appropriations committee.
The others were “sick.” It is hardly
likely that any of them were much
;si‘cker than Senator Clay, but they
" were sick enough to stay at home.
i The senator has attended every
‘imeeting of the appropriation commit
' tee, and he has scanned closely and
Zstudied carefully every provision in
ievery bill for the expenditure of mon- |
| ey that came before the committee.
| His rigid ideas of economy in govern
lmental expenditures have been urged
| persistently before the committee, and
Qit is recorded that there has been lit
| tle extravagance.
| He is the ranking minority member
| of the postoffice committee, and the
'records of the committee show that
| he has not missed a meeting since his
| return from Georgia. It might also
!be stated that the senator sought to
\ increase the pay of the rural carriers,
| but was voted down.
! skisk ¥
Shortly after his return from Geor
gia, in February, it was brought to the
senator's attention that the weather re
ports were not being sent South, be
cause the bureau claimed that its ap
propriation for the dissemination of
this inforamtion had been exhausted.
Senator Clay believed the fruit grow
ers of Georgia should have the benefit
of this information, and he secured an
‘amendment to the agricultural appro
priation, making it possible for the bu
reaun to furnish the information.
The Farmers' Union found no more
willing friend than Senator Clay, ac
cording to President Chas. S. Barrett.
who has been in Washington. The Sen
ator indicated his sympathy with the
movement to suppress gambling in
farm products, and even now he has
pending in the senate a bill that will
accomplish this desired result, in the
’e\'ent of its passage.
|* % K
| Senator Clay at this time is after in
formation that will establish the ex
‘tent to which the government is dis
| criminated against by the railroads in
k the matter of the transportation of the
'mails. The senator believes that the
| railroads transport express for much
| smaller pay than they receive for haul
!ing the mails, and he is exerting his
| best efforts at this time to develop the
| extent of this discrimination, so that
[the country may be informed and the
| situation be relieved.
i k. kR
! The pending railroad bill, made fam
| ous by the exposure of its iniquities,
' has afforded an excellent opportunity
lfor Senator Clay to display his abili-
THE MARIETTA JOURNAL AND COURIER
| ties as a legislator. Aithough he has not
| the title of leader of the minority, he
,has, in fact, been the real leader dur
| ing the consideration of this measure.
; He has been so recognized by the reg
| ular Republicans and insurgents alike.
|He has evidenced a resourcefulness
i that has been pleasing to the members
' of his party, and he has demonstrated
' other qualities of leadership that have
kept him in the front without any ef
fort on his part. He knows how to
deal with men—and United States
senators, Republicans, Democrats and
Insurgents, are men after all. He is
ihonest with them and he is frank,
‘and all elements trust him.
Senator Clay’s proposition to strike
out sections seven and twelve of the
bill, and his speech upon these sec
tions, placed him in a commanding po
sition. Section seven repealed the
Anti-Trust law, in so far as it applies
to railroads, and section twelve au
thorized mergers. They were the
most objectionable features of the
measue. y
“Why try to perfect such objection
able, unfair and iniquitous provis
ions as these?’ demanded Senator
Clay. “Let’s save time by striking
them out altogether.”
The senate took Senator Clay’s ad
vice, but not until it became evident
that he had corralled votes enough to
pass his amendments di@ the regular
Republicans fall into line.
- * *
Senator Clay is not well yet, how
ever, He is improving slowly, gaining
a littie strength every day and getting
his digestive apparatus in better shape
by continual doctoring, He is confident
of complete restoration to health, but
he realizes that it will take time and
require attention. He proposes to
stick by the work in Washington until
adjournment. He will then seek rest,
but he is undecided as yet where he
will go.
It is possible that the Senator may
be back among his Marietta friends by
the middle of June.

Give Facts regarding
Dyspepsia.
Although indigestion and dyspepsia
are 80 prevalent, most people do not |
thoroughly understand their canse and '
how to obtain relief. There i no
reason why people should not eat any
thing they desire—if they will only
chew it carefully and thoroughly.
Many actually starve themselves into
sickness through fear of eating very
good looking, good-smelling and good -
tasting food, because it does not agree
with them. |
Dieting cannot cure dyspepsia. Ifl
we refuse every article of food that
disagrees with us, before long we have :
‘nothing left, and find ourselves chronie
dyspeptics. |
We are so confident that we can
iurnish relief for indigestion and dys
pepsia that we promise to supply the
medicine free of all cost to every one
who uses it according to directions who
is not perfectly satisfied with the re
sults We exact no promises and put
Lo cne under obligations whatever.

Says Gov. Brown will Run.i
The Atlanta correspondent of the
Athens Banner quotes Reyv. C. E. W.‘
Dobbs as saying Governor Brown will
be a candidate for a second term. ‘
The Banner correspondent says: '
‘‘Governor Joseph M. Brown will
again be a candidate for governor.””
“‘This statement comes from Rev, C. :
E. W. Dobbs, D. D., pastor of the Bap
tist church at Fernandina, Fla., who
has been a guest of Governor and Mrs. 1
Brown for several days.” |
“‘Dr. Dobbs does not say that Govern
or Brown stated to him positively that
he would make the race, but the gov
ernor's conversation on the subject
left the inference that he had no other
plan except that of making his an
nouncement. In fact, Governor Brown
said in so many words that he had
practically fixed his campaign ”’
Dr. Dobbs was for a number of years
stationed as a pastor in Georgia, hav
ing served churches both at Carters
