DISTRIBUTION OF SUPPLIES.
Uncle Sam Will Furnish Food Only
to Unarmed Cubans

Key West Fla, Sept 1O.-The govern,
ment at Washington has assumed a firm
stand up on the matter of supply food
to the Cuban insurgents. Recently M.
Balonz made a request upon Gen. Law
ton at Santiago that certain Cuban troops
at Des Camines and Cobre be supplied
with food. The application was in turn
submitted TO the war department by Cen
Lawton.
1t is now learned that the matter was
referred directly to President Mckinley
who responded through Gen. Corbin that
no subsistence or other stores would be
issued to any armed troops other than
those of the United States, the law pro
viding that issue be made only to inhabi-
tants of Cuba who are in immediate dan
ger Of perishing unless they receive them.

DR.. WURTH'S OPINION
Of. the New Discovery in Medicine
\ REMARKABLY SUCCESSFUL REM
EDY FOR DYSPEPSIA, INDI-
GESTION AND STOMACH
TROUBLES


DR.. Wurth IN commenting on
recent discoveries in medicine
said: There IS lone which IS GER
tain to be SO valuable and far
reaching in benefit us Stuart S
Dyspepsia Tablets, the new stom-
ach remedy; | say far reaching,
because people little realize how
important a sound stomach and
vigorous digestion is to every
man, woman and child.
Indigestion IS the starting
point of consumption, heart dis
ease, Bright's disease, diabetes,
nervous prostration, liver trou-
bles; why is this So: Simply be-
cause every nerve, muscle and
tissue in our bodies IS created and
nourished from the food we eat.
If that food is, by reason Of a
weak stomach, compelled TO lie
for hours, sour, frrmenting
mass Of half digestcd food, it
pOlsonS the blood and nervous
system, creates gas which dis
tends the stomach and bowels,
causing pressure on the heart,
lungs and other organs, and
seriously impeding thcir action.
He says further, the point to
direct attention IS not the nerves,
nor heart, nor lungs, nor kidneys,
but the STOMACH, the first cause
of all the mischief.
The remedy to use for indiges-
tion and weak stomach is not
some cathartic, but a remedy
which will digest the food, in
crease The flow Of gastric Juice,
absorb the gases, and Stuart s
Dyspepsia Tablets will accom-
pIish exactly this result in any
case of stomach trouble, because
these tablets are composed Of the
digestive acids, ascptic pcpsin,
Golden Seal and hismuth, pleas
ant to taste, and not being q
patent medicine, can be used by
anyone with perfect safety. | be
lieve Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
will cure any form Of indigestion
and stomach trouble except
cancer OF the stomach.
Full sized package of Stuart.

druggists at soc or BY mail from

JUDGE HOCKER'S OPINION
Why an Injunction Was Not Granted
the Saloon Keepers

the Saloon Keepers
He first cited the law under
which the election was held, and
then said:
"Many errors and irregularities
arc set forth within the bill in a
general way and some specifically.
"First, that the petition ask
ing for the holding Of the election
did not contain one-fourth Of the
voters. The exact number of the
registered voters, not the number
Of petitioners, is not given. This
allegation is conclusion Of law
and cannot be considercd.-2Ot
Florida, $50, lst high, 81.
''The second, third and fourth
allegations relate to irregulari-
ties, and as 1t is not alleged that
there was fraud in the election,
or that the Irregularities in any
way intcrfered with the express
sion of the popular will, they ca n
not avail to set the election aside.
-24th Florida, 1l2.
"The fifth defect IS that the bal
lots are not legal in form. The
law does expressly provide a form
Of ballot, except SO far as SG2
r. S. can be considered to provide
one. But even if it does, if
the ballot is so construed as to
enable the court to see what the
voter intended, it is sutficient.-A
and E in Law, vol. 6, PIP. 343.
"The sixth defect is that the
62d chapter, 1929 Law of Florida,
creates canvassing board and
that the county commissioners
have no power to canvass, mas
much as the constitution provides
that such elections shall be hello
in the manner provided for hold
ing general elections.
cit does not appear that the
general law was intended By its
trainers to apply to prohibition
elections, as that they we're con
sidered in framing the bill; there
is nothing IN the act (chaptcl
1929 that intlmates it. | do moi
see why the county commission
ers may not canvass the returns
provided in 86l Revised Statutes
Moreover, chapter 1852, acts o
1897, contemplatcs that the,
shall do so. The matter is press
ling and my time too limited t
go into a minute investigation o
this question; but speaking gen
orally, irregularities do not aifcc
elections, unless there is sucl
fraud or departure from th
directions governing them tha
the result is rendered uncertain
cit is not alleged in this bill
that any Of the lrregularitie
complained of did affect in an,
way the result. 1t is not allegeC
that any voter was deprived O
his ballot or opportunity to vote
or that true expression of tn
popular will cannot be asGer
tanned from the vote as cast ct
a and E En-. Law. l therefor
decline to grant the temporar
Injunction prayed for"

JUNTA's POSTMASTER.
Great Indignation because or the
Appointment of the Negro Twymnn.

ROCKY MOUNT, VA, october 13.-(Spe-
ciai THE negro. Twyman, who has been
commissioned postmaster at Junta, In the
southern part of this county, according
to the latest adyices, is trying to get
some white man to take the Office Tor
him. The people declare they will not
receive their mail from him, and they are
getting their mail at the nearest offce
which is q long distance, and the change
subjects them to great deal of inconve-
nience.
The Republicans tried TO keep ivy
mans appointment secret until after
the election. The matter had been kept
quiet since August Ath, but within the
last few days Twyman's commission ar
rived and the secret could not be kept
longer.
The indignation Of the people OF the
Junta neighborhood is intense, and 1t
Is not believed that the whites will send
or receive mail through that office. The
feeling against the admpistration Tor
making the appointment is bitter. Should
Mr.. Parr be elected and other negro ap-
plicants for office appear upon the stage,
il is feared he would be found lending
his influence to their appointment, since
he is a strong administration man, and
negro appointees Is part OF the policy
of the administration.

SENATOR PLATTcs BANK CLOSED.
Defa1catiOn on Part of Assistant
Cashier. Who Died Wednesday.


WASHINGTON, October 1S.-Charles G.
Dawes. Comptroller OF the Currency, to-
day wired the cashier of the Tioga Ma
tional Bank, of Oswego, n. Y, of which
Senator r. c. Platt is president, to close
the doors of that institution, receive no
more deposits, and transact no more
business, stating that he had placed Mr..
C. u. Van Brooklyn, National Bank Ex-
amirer, in charge Of the bank.
The action was taken by the Comp
troller as the result of a recent examina-
tion by Examiner Van Brooklyn, which
disclosed a large defalcation on the part
of ELI w. Stone. the assistant cashier OF
the bank. Assistant Cashier Stone died
at his home Wednesday night shortly af-
ter he had been confronted by the ex-
aminer with the defalcation. He con-
fessed his guilt to the examiner. The eX-
aminer reports that from as careful ex-
animation of the books of the bank as
he has been able to make, there is no
evidence whatever of any completely on
the part of other officers of the DanK'
The defalcation occurred through the
nanIpulation of the indlvidual-deposlt
ledger of the assistant cashier when act
ing as receiving teller.
1t is understood the peculations OF the
assistant cashier covered about twenty
years, small amounts being taken at a
time. This was made possible by Stone
acting at times as both receiving teher
and individual book-keeper.
