City Council Just Did Have a
Quorum Last Night.
SENT A SUBSTITUTE BILL
To Montgomery Which Authorizes City
to Refund Debt-Leaves Power of
Making the Transaction in
Hands of Aldermen.
SENT A SUBSTITUTE BILL

The city council just did have a quorum
at its meeting last night which was post
poned from Wednesday night. The sum of
$1,000 was appropriated to the public
schools for the payrolls which fall due
today.
On motion of Alderman Pearce new bill
authorizing the city to refund its debt was
substituted for the two now before the
legislature, one in the house and one in the
city.
Alderman Pearce said that the senate
bill sought to take control of the matter
out of the hands of the board of aldermen
and give it to three commissioners. The
expenses of these commissioners while out
of the city (and they would spend most of
the time away, would have to be paid out
of the city treasury. In addition to this
the city council would be required to fix
reasonable compensation for them.
The house bill authorized the city to re-
fund its past due interest coupons and not
the outstanding bonds. The city should
have the right to take up its old bonds at
and both bills were Objectionable. The city
did not want to create any new offices.
These commissioners would cost at least
$4,000 in two years. To be frank, they
would have nothing to do but go about the
matter in business-like way. The mayor
could do this. He thought the time had
come when the Indebtedness could be re-
funded and the city placed on sound
basis.
1t was then voted that this bill which

PECULIAR POISONS
GENERATEDIN THE HUMAN BODY

The Result of Imperfect Digestion of
Food.
Every living thing, plant or animal. con-
tains within itself the germs of certain de-
cay and DEATH
In the human body these germs of death
Called by scientists Ptomaines), are usually
the result of imperfect digestion of food;
the result of indigestion or dyspepsia.
The stomach, from abuse, weakens, does
not promptly and thoroughly digest the
food The result is a heavy, sodden mass
which ferments (the first process OF decay,
poisoning the blood. making 1t thin, weak
and lacking in red corpuscles; poisoning the
brain, causing headaches, pain in the eyes.
Bad digestion weakens the heart, causing
palpitation and finally bringing on disease
of this very important organ.
Poor digestion poisons the kidneys, caus-
ing Bright's disease and diabetes.
And this is so because every organ, every
nerve depends upon the stomach alone for
nourishment and renewal, and weak d.
gestion shows itself not only in loss of APP
petite and flesh, but in weak nerves and
muddy complexion.
The great English scientist, Huxley, said
the best start in life is a sound stomach.
Weak stomachs fail to digest food prop
erly, because they lack the proper quantity
of digestive acids Qactic and hydrochloric)
and peptogenic products; the most sensible
remedy in all cases of indigestion, is to take
after each meal one or two of 6tuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets, because they supply In a
pleasant harmless form all the elements
that a weak stomach lack.
The regular use of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets will cure any form of stomach
trouble except cancer of the stomach.
They increase flesh, insure pure blood,
strong nerves, bright eyes and clear COM
plexion, because all these result from
wholesome food well digested.
Nearly all druggists sell Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets at 80 cents full sized package
or by mail by enclosing price to Stuart Co.,
Marshall, Mich, but ask your druggist first.

places the matter in the hands of the city
council should be sent to Montgomery as
the substitute for the two already intro
duced.
When the council had adjourned a tele-
gram was received from City Attorney R.
]. Lowe saying that a compromise had
been effected whereby the power had been
left with the city council, just as the new
bill contemplated.
The Routine Business.
Those present were Mayor Evans, Alder
men Lynaugh, Wheeler, RAINBOW, Meighan.
Mcknight, Graham, Hamilton, Pearce,
Hentschel.
Alderman Graham, for the finance COM
mittee, reported the monthly pay roll and
q large number of bills which were ordered
paid.
Chairman Graham, of the street commit
Tee, reported two ordinances levying final
assessments for street improvements One
for work In Eighth avenue between TWEEN
ty-fourth and Twenty-sixth streets and
the other for work on Eleventh avenue be-
tween Nineteenth and Twentieth streets
The rules were suspended and both were
passed.
When the report was called for from the
miscellaneous committee, Alderman Hamil-
ton said that he was a member of the
committee, but was powerless to do any
thing The chairman was never In the city
and always had the papers. People were
complaining and he wanted 1t distinctly
understood that he could not do anything.
Chairman Pearce, of the police and sani-
tation committee, reported one bid for the
building of a sanitary sewer In Sixth ave.

halter & Company for $294.10. The work was

IL would guarantee his election, and he
would not have to make speech. This
really gives another reason to many why
an extra session is desirable. Many large
appropriations would naturally go over,
and when made would not be charged to
this congress but to the next. Up to the
present time there seems to be no special
charge of extravaganza. There is no one
item but that 1t would be hard for any
party to scratch were the records put in
its hands. But politicians take mean adj
vantages of what is unavoidable and the
voter out on the farms and those in the.
towns don't stop to consider whether or
not two billion might have been, or might
be, necessary. He only knows that the fig
ures are such as he has never seen before
and SOMEBODY must be held responsible for
them.
Mr.. Reed and Mr. Cannon are doing
much private talking on the subject. They
are trying to proselyte republicans to their
way of thinking whenever the opportunity
presents itself.
Leadership of the Minority
The leadership of the minority In the
next congress will not be the idle fight of
this one The democrats have gained In
numbers and the republicans will not have
such easy work in passing partisan bills
as it has had during this congress.
Mr.. Bailey will, in all likelihood, make
the senate in the near future or so his
friends are predicting for him now but his
ambition at present is to be speaker before
he assumes the toga in the senate The
strength of Bailey is illustrated in no bet
ter way than the almost unanimous back
ing he has received in his fight to have
the seats of men holding commissions In
the army declared vacant. When the mat
ter comes up in the house there will hardly
be bakers dozen on the democratic side
to vote against the report of the judiciary
committee. The democrats believe that
Mr.. Bailey acted conscientiously when
he offered the resolutions declaring the
seats of such members vacant. He has al
ways fought for strict construction of the
constitution and when he said that had
General Wheeler been his own brother he
would not have acted differently, the demo-
Gratis knew 1t to be true. He may go to an
extreme in the matter, but no one doubts
his sincerity and herein lies his strength
with his party.
Should an extra session be necessary it
Will bring on a fight for leadership in the
democratic party nine months before
schedule time. The opposition to Mr.
Bailey will center about Mr.. Richardson,
and Mr. Bankhead, Mr.. DeArmond not
having done much to strengthen himself
with the democrats of the house at this
session.
Mr.. Bankhead will have considerable
strength, but he will not be unfriendly to
Mr.. Bailey in his own canvass His vote
will be most complimentary one, which
will go to show his strength and influence
in the house, but when his adherents break
away it will be to Bailey that nearly all

LINCOLN'S POLITICAL ACUMEN
From the New York Commercial-Adver

LINCOLN'S POLITICAL ACUMEN
From the New York Commercial-Adver-
tiser.
He used the fox's ekin only when it served
better than the lions. He appointed the
democrat, Stanton, with the memory of a
crue, affront ranking in his sensitive mind,
and he endured Staptons insults to the day
of his death. He was single-minded in his
desire to get the best generals, however
they treated him. He made his principal
enemy in his cabinet chief justice of the
United States. He not only made his lead
ing rival for the presidency secretary of
state. but he passed by without notice
statements by that official that, in the mind
of everybody, friend or enemy, warranted
dismissal. All this is true, as it is true that
the deepest ethical realities had his moet
answering loyalty; but it is perhaps well to
distinguish, for the sake of discouraging the
easy cant that attacks everything adroit in
politics between the generally futile person
superior to Cancellation and bargain and the
statesman in whose hand every art known
to the smallest politician becomes weapon
In some high cause. To the latter category
belonged Abraham Lincoln.

SENATORIAL ELECTIONS

From the Greenville Living Truth.
There is no doubt of the fact that much
time and vexation would be saved If sena-
tors were elected by the direct vote of the
people. This would serve more than one
good purpose. it would do away with sena-
torial conventions. and would also show the
strength of candidate with the people and
not leave it to the tricks and trades which
politicians make and use to subserve the
interests of one they wish to favor.
