Ex-senator Wade Hampton, who is one of
the most moderate of the southern Demo.
cratic leaders, expresses the opinion that the
speakership of the next House should 20 to
northern Democrat. The speakership
carries with it the power of making up the
committees. and the chairmanships of the
leading committees will inevitably go to the
section to which the speaker belongs. A
tremendous political power goes with the
chairmanships. a political power which the
south has always been very greedy for I'm
doubtedly the sentiments of General Hamp-
ton embody the wisest policy for the Demo-
cratic party. south as lwell as north. But
they will have little influence upon the am

as La Grippe and kindred diseases, which now
come to us every spring, and they do not yield to
medicine short of two to three months treatment,
as medicine does not make new blood, and all
diseases come from the blood.
The old cry that we have every year
that we must take some medicine to
cleanse the blood Is exhausted, as it Is
imp0ssibility to cleanse the blood. Only
