Old People made Young.

the Vermontville (AIich) Echo, has dis
covered the remarkable secret of keep
ing old people young. For years he
has avoided Nervousness, Sleeplessness,
Indigestion, Heart trouble, Constipation
and Rheumatism, by using Electric
Bitters, and he writes: 1T can't be
praised to highly. 1t gently stimulates
the kidneys. tones the stomach, aids
digestion. and gives splendid appetite.
It has worked wonders for my wife and

How He Voted.

EDITOR ExAMINER:-I note from
your paper that an effort has been
made by some of the opposition press
In Idaho to show that / avoided a
vote on the Roberts case in the
House. l am not in the habit Of
making an explanation of my official
record but as some misapprehension
may have arisen in this case, / deem
it proper that the people should un-
derstand it. / voted for the Rich
ardson Resolution, which provided
for administering the oath to Mr..
Roberts, allowing him to take his
seat and referring his case to the
judiciary Committee for investiga-
ton. This was rising vote in the
House. Fifty-seven members voted
fol his resolution. 1t was defeated
and the question then required on
the original of Taylor's Resolution,
which refused him the right to take
the oath, denied him membership
and his state representation without
hearing and referred his case to
a special committee which is still
investigating it.
The Richardson resolution | con-
sidered the only proper, legal and
constitutional method; l therefore
voted for it. For parliamentary
reasons pure and simple | declined,
as did about 80 other members, to
vote on the Taylor resolution which
was yea and nay vote. I could not
vote for that resolution because I
considered it unconstitutional and
revolutionary, denying a member
with proper credentials the right to
take the oath of Office and his. seat
IN the house on ex-parte statements,
all OF which were hearsay evidence.
Moreover, having voted for the
Richardson resolution, / could not
consistently vote for the TAYLOR
resolution.
would not vote against it for
the reason that to do so would deny
the member from Utah any hearing
at all; the act of the speaker in ask
ing him to stand aside having be-
come the action of the house by the
concurrence of the house therein.
The refusal to vote on the Taylor
resolution, therefore, was purely a
parliamentary question and the
course | took thereon after CONSUL
tatlon with about 80 other members
and in accord with them was the
only proper one to take in our iude-
ment from purely parliamentary
standpoint. 1t did not in any way
go to the merits of the controversy.
Ny vote in favor of the Richardson
resolution, which was to admister
the oath of Office to Roberts, give
him his seat In the house as any
other member and then investigate
him by the judiciary Committee.
was clear statement of my posi-
ton Oh this question SO far as the
preliminary parliamentary action
respecting it is concerned.
1 have never avoided an issue in
Idaho or IN the house of representa-
tiyes and I want the people of the
state to understand my position on
this one. | am convinced it ia
right, and whether others think it
right or wrong, ] am wiling to be

The Malad Enternriso answore

The Malad Enterprise answered
Pres. Budge's "open letter" last
week. 1t is the most courteous and
manly editorial that we have read
IN many moons. There is not a
line of bitterness or malice or any
unkind word in the entire article,
and yet it covers every point raised
by President Bulge and states fully
just the position everyone occupies
who cannot indorse Roberts mar
ried relations. We wish VIC could
publish the article in full, but space
will not permit, However, next
week we will print extracts from it
that are most important.

There is a current story afloat in the
Philippines and also in this country to
the effect that Aguinaldo at one time
sold out or rather agreed to cease hostil-
hties with the Spaniards for a CON
siderable sum of money and after the
war began with the United States and
Spain. he saw an oppol tunity to resume
hostilities and perchance free the peo-
pie and himself from the government
Of Spain. This, however, may be true
and it may be false, but Aguinaldo
most emphatically denies ever entering
into any such stipulation with thu
Spaniards, and many inqueries have
been made concerning this story. The
Filipinos say the Spaniards started this
recital and that there is no truth what
ever, in the statement, they say that
since his first contension with the
Spaniards he has ever been true to his
cause and with few exceptions of ieal-
ousy, the Filipinos are united in trying
to carry out their leaders will. If it is
true that Aguinaldo has betrayed such
trust it is indeed strange that the lead
ing Filipinos have not been able to find
1t out and if they did know it to be true
it is not likely they would be willing to
trust him themselves, Some of our
soldiers who like to tell what savage,
treacherous set of people the Filipinos
are, do it just to have something to say
and do not.know what else to talk about.
If you could hear how some of the sol.
diers usedss to talk while in the army
you would think they must have join
ed it with view to such voluptuous
pleasure that when they found their sad
mistake tried, and are trying to get
even with Uncle Sam by continual
round of grumbling and complaining.
When they have said all they can think
of about the Filipinos, then they begin
telling how they suffered for the want
of food and if any man anticipated roll
ing in luxuries while in the army, all
who Joined are much wiser now than
they we're when they looked forward
to the time when they would enjoy
such epicurism in the army.
