SENATOR MORGAN AGAIN MAKES
 REPLY TO GOVERNOR JOHNSTON
Continued From Third Page.)


 senate, it would be quite certain to fail as if the you are backing Charles P Huntington-had charge of the measure. I nave long believed that you were secretly opposed to the canal, as you were to the war with Spain, for no better reason than that I adv Sv.ated both, and re- cent events confirm this belief.
 'The amendment offered by MT. Petit grew to the Dingley tarln bin Is as fol- Jews:
 That all articles on the dutiable list mentioned in this act shall be ad-
 m.tted free of duty if said article or articles of like Character of domestic production are manufactured or their sale controlled or the price affected by
 a trust or combination to increase the
 cost of said article to purchaser by preventing competition or otherwise.
 ''I voted against it because 1t put 1t in the power of any two men in any part of the country to destroy the revenues of the country by forming a trust to manufacture or sell any article. Their crime would ad- init the article free of duty and would SO admit all articles to which tine crime ap- piled.
 am as near to being free trader as any other sound democrat according to our platforms but it never occurred to me that it was a legitimate method of secur- ing free trade to tempt men to commit VI order to have articles admitted free of duty The proposition is absurd on it's face.
 'I believe that, with the objections and ins1nuations in your letter, you have ex- hausted your criticism of my long and ac- tive record of twenty-three years serv- ice in the senate. It is an open book, with no concealments. If, after you have been in the senate for three years, you pro- yoke the people of the state into as many and as serious criticisms of y.ur conduct as you have done during your three years service as governor, you will be at least the most notorious man that ever sat in the senate from Alabama.

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.
Also a Few Facts on the Same Subject.

Also a Few Facts on the Same sub1ect'
 We hear much nowadays about health foods and hygienic living, about vesetari- antsm and many other fads along the same line.
 Restaurants may be found in the larger cities where no meat, pastry or coffee IS served and the food crank Is in his glory, and arguments and theories galore ad- ganced to prove that meat was never. 1n- tended for human stomacls and almost make us believe that our sturdy ancestors who lived four score years in robust health on roast beef, pork and mutton must have been grossly ignorant of the laws of health.
 Our forefathers had other things to do arcan formulate theories about the food hhey ate. warm welcome was extended to any kind from bacon to acorns.
 A healthy appetite and common sense are excellent guides to follow in matters of diet, and a mixed diet of grains, fruits and meats is undoubtedly the best.
 AS compared with grains and vegetables, meat furnishes the most nutriment in a srghly concentrated form and is dgested and assimilated more quickly than vegeta- Ibles and grains.
 Dr. Julius Remmson on this subject says: "Nervous persons, people run down in health and of low vitality should eat meat and plenty of it. If tine digestion is too feeble at first 1t may be easily corrected by the regular use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal. Two of these ex- cellent tablets taken after dinner will di- gest several thousand grains of meat, eggs or, other animal food in three hours, and mo matter how weak the stomach may be- no trouble will be experienced if q regular practice is made of using Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets because they supply the pepsin and diastase necessary to perfect digestion, and every form of indigestion will be overcome by their use."
 That large classes of people who come under the head of nervous dyspeptics Should eat plenty of meat and insure it's proper digestion by the daily use of safe, harmless digestive medicine like Strart's Dyspepsia Tablets composed of the natural digestive principles, pepsin, diastase fruit acids and salts which actu- ally perform the work of digestion. Cheap cathartic medicines, masqueradlng under the name of dyspepsia cures, are useless flor indigestion, as they have absolutely no effect upon the actual digestion of food
 Dyspepsia in all its many forms is simoly a failure of the stomach to digest food and the sensible way to solve the riddle and cure the dyspepsia is to make daily use a. meal time of a preparation like Stuart,s Dyspepsia Tablets. which is indorsed by the medical profession and known to con- tain active digestive principles
 All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab- lets at soc for full treatment

N. G. JAMES SPEECH.

1t Is not expected that q republican
speaker in the present compaigu viii
confne himself strictly 10 the truth and
50 there is no surprise manifested at
an ordinary depression from facts, even
so able a man as Murat Halstead finds
it necessary to contradict bis own
statements as q historian when he
takes the pen As a political writer.
Consequently there was no surprise
manifested Wednesday when Mr., james
stated that the Philippines would be
treated Just As the Louisiana purchase
had been, IN other words, would event
ualIy be admitted TO the union. Every
one knew that was not true and let II
pass as an ungarded expression in a
moment Of enthusiasm
But when a republican in Missouri
