THE OUTLOOK GOOD
FOR CONSIDERABLE TALK
CONGRESS THIS WEEK.

A Stormy Debate Expected IN tne
House on the Deficiency Bill.
Senate to Discuss the Philippine
Policy of the Government.
WASHINGTON, January 6.-There
is no programme in the House for the
present week. The only certain feature
is the consideration of the urgent de-
ficiency appropriation bill. 1t will be
ready Tuesday or Wednesday. 1t will
contain almost s50,000O00 for the army
and navy, and while it will pass when
it reaches a vote, it may precipitate a
stormy debate upon the conduct CT the
war in the Philippines.
The answer of Secretary Gage to the
House resolution calling for informa-
ton regarding the deposit of govern
ment funds in national banks Is ex
pected early in the week. The report
will not constitute privileged question
which will open debate. but if it is
deemed unsatisfactory resolutions of
investigation may follow. The Roberts
case will not get before the House I'M
til the end of the week at the earliest
and probably not then. The hearings
have Been adjourned until Wednesday
and it hardly likely that the report can
be prepared in time for presentation
this week.
The week in the Senate necessarily
will be given up largely to speech
making. Beginning Monday morning,
Senator Pettigrew's resolution asking
for information concerning the Philip
pine war will come up, and he and
probably other Senators will speak
upon 1t. This will occur during the
morning hour. Senator Morgan has
given notice Of speech on Monday,
in which he will discuss the race ques-
ton in the South. II any time is left
that day it will be devoted to the con-
tinuation Of the discussion of the
financial bill, some of the Senator'S in
the opposition replying to Mr.. Aldrich.
Tuesday Senator Beveridge will deliver
his speech on the Philippine problem,
and Wednesday will be devoted to
eulogies of the late Vice President Ho-
bart. The greater pare of the remain
der of the week will be devoted to
finances, the object of the managers
of the financial bill being to give as
much time as possible to this measure
until it is acted upon.
1t Is understood now that almost all
the Senators opposed to the bill will
talk upon it before the vote is taken.
but there has not yet been any arrange
ment of the order in which they will
address the Senate.

PLAIN, EASY READING.
1t Will Do You Good to Ponder
Over 1t.
A Splendid Article Which All the
People Are Now Talking
Much About.

What we say is plain, easy reading and
will do you good. The people of West
Virginia are saying a great deal about
Morrow's Kid-ne-oids just now because
Morrow's Kid-ne-oids have cured so many
bad cases of backashe, sleeplessnes and
nervousness in this city. Morrow's Kid
ne-oids is a scientific preparation prepared
IN yellow tablet form, and acts directly
upon the kidneys and nerves. Do not con-
meet Morrow's Kid-ne-oids with any kind
of kidney pills. they are yellow tablets
and put up in wooden boxes which con-
lain enough for about two weeks treat
nent, and sell at fifty cents box at all
irug stores.
we ask you to read what a gentleman
has to say about the great merit of Nor
,ows Kid-ne-oids:
Mr. NJ v. Graham, 1922 Fourth avenue
Huntington, says: Some time ago l was
mall of my back and was generally run
Town. I had no. appetite and could not
sleep well at night, and it seemed that /
would be more tired in the morning when
| would first get up than when l went to
bed / would have headache frequently.
Some of my friends had been greatly bene-
hted by Morrow's Kid-ne-oids and Nor
rows Liverlax, so I got some at the drug
store and was cured in week after be-
gan taking them"
Yellow Tables, and are for sale at all
drug stores. Morrows Liverlax are

ton and biliousness. Kid-ne-oids fifty

DETROIT, Mich, January Con
gresham John ]. Lentz, CT Ohio, made
a radical anti-imperialist address last
night before big audience in the light
guard armory. The meeting was the
first Of series undertaken by the Mo-
hawk Democratic Club to be held at in
tervals previous to the general election
next November. Mr. Lentz was intro
dueed by Mayor Maybury as man hav-
ing "old-fashioned IDEAS" such as for
instance, that all just powers Of gov
eminent are derived from consent of
the governed.
The speaker was frequently heartily
applauded. He said:
1.-THE question of imperialism is by
far the most important in the world to-
day and that concentrated thought Of
our 100000 citizenship ought to be
devoted to 1t until it is settled and set
tied right. Most of the speakers quo
tations in support of his arguments
were selected from the words OF dis
tinguished Republican anti-imperial-
lists.
Mr.. Lentz devoted much attention to
what he termed President McKinley's
cornerstone" speeches, made during
the Presidents last western tour. He
denied the truth of the statement in
the Presidents message to Congress,
which said: ''The noble self-sacrifice
with which our soldiers refused to re-
turn home as long as they are needed
at the front forms one of the brightest
pages in our annals"
Mr. Lentz asserted that the records
did not bear this out, and in proof OF
this he quoted among other proof, Gen.
Otis cablegram of April 10Th, to the
effect that Volunteers will not re-en-
list" He also quoted several of Ad-
miral Dewey's reports as showing that
the forces of Dewey and Aguinaldo
were practically allies and partners and
would have so continued had 1t not
been for the alleged purposes of greed,
which according to the speaker, die
tated the policy of expansion.
Speaking of the published statements
Of the President in reference to up
holding the flag, the Congressman de-
clared that the nation ought primarily
to uphold, under every circumstance,
that which the flag has stood for from
Washington time to the present day
namely, f-government, an inaliena-
BILE right which Americans, Of all peo-
pie, ought to help maintain, in the
Philippines, not less than in Cuba or in
America.

tho clerks desk. he replied that It
Va memorial setting Up ! plan Of
settlement and adjustment Of the vir-
ginia debt as proposed by the holders
Of the West Virginia deferred certif-
Gates.
The speaker then said: The House
having passed resolution which was
adopted by the Senate and is now a
joint resolution of this Legislature,
that no consideration of the Virginia
debt question shall be had at this ses-
sion, the chair declines to allow the
memorial to be sent to the clerks desk
or to become part of the journal OF
this House. There was no dissent from
this ruling of the chair, and the incl
dent was thus summarily closed in the
House.
Now, mark the difference of the
treatment of this subject in the Senate.
The memorial was introduced by a
Republican Senator, received by the
Republican presiding officer and spread
upon the journal of that body. (See
Senate Journal, PIP. $40 to 561.)
If, therefore, there was any "seduc-
ton of legislators by syndicate agents.
as stated in the Intelligencer, 1t must
have been members of it's own party
who were seduced. But, at all events,
the foundation was laid in the Repub-
lican Senate, through which the agents
of the syndicate were able to get a
hearing in behalf of their so-called OBJ
legations against this State, and doubt
less If their efforts had not been frus-
trated by the action of the Democratic
House, a joint committee would have
been asked for and possibly appointed
at the last session, whose labors would
have been directed along the line OF
seeking to definitely ascertain that
West Virginia properly owes the moth
er State good many millions of dol
lars, and further to endeavor to in
fuence legislators to conclude that
such obligation should be met in a
spirit of fairness and honesty 10 the
syndicate and it's friends in the Re-
publican party in this State, that they
may have opportunity to enrich them
selves by bringing about an adjustment
of this debt.
1t must be apparent to any thinking
man that the syndicate has been en-
couraged in some way from Republican
ascendency in West Virginia. For
twenty-five years the Democratic party
controlled every department of the
State government in West Virginia,
and during all that time there was
absolutely no discussion of this ques
ton, and at no time was there lobby
about the capitol interested in having
the Legislature take it up. But from
the day the Republican party came in
to power the matter has been persis-
tently pressed, and at each succeeding
session of the Legislature the syndi-
cate becomes more bold and out
spoken in it's determination to foist
this debt upon the people of this State.

PERTINENT REMARKS
Made by MIR. Bryan at the Chicago
jackson Day Banquet.

jackson Day Banquet.
CHICAGO, January six hundred
Democrats gathered in the banquet hall
of the fremont House last night to
observe Jackson Day" in an appropri-
ate manner. William Jennings Bryan
was an honored guest and chief orator
of the evening.
The commencement of the banquet
was late, and it was nearly midnight
when the orators were in full swing,
Mr. Bryans address being last on the
list. Mayor Harrison. of Chicago,
acted as POSTMASTER.
Mr.. Bryan, in opening his address,
recounted the political situation as it
had existed at each successive Jack
son Day" banquet which he had attend
ed in Chicago, and then coming down
to later issues, he discussed the cur
rency bill. OF this, he said:
1.-The currency bill fastens us to the
financial system of the old world and
subjects us to all the disturbances
which affect them, while it places the
control of the volume of paper money
in the hands of bank trust which
will be as merciless to the people OF
this country as Weyler was to the re-
concentrate. The fight for bime.al-
lism at the ratio Of Is to l has not
been lost The increased production OF
gold has shown the advantage Of more
money and has answered the argu-
ment so often made that the parity
could not be maintained because Of
the over production of silver"
/ He declared that the Republican
party is unable to enact and enforce
efficient antitrust laws, AMI that the
Democratic party when il power will
meet the issue with a plain and posi-
tive remedy. On the subject of I'm
perialism," he said:
1.-THE question of Imperialism will
occupy a prominent place in the next
campaign. 1t matters not whether the
war in the Philippines ends in the
near future or continues until election.
The people must determine the policy
to be pursued in regard to the Filipi-
nos. That policy must contemplate
the ultimate independence OF the Fill
pinos or their permanent retention I'M
der American sovereignty. II the is
lands are to be retained permanently,
the inhabitants must be given the hope
of full citizenship or they must be con-
demned to the lot of subjects. Who
desires to admit them to share and
share alike with US in the destiny Of
this republic?"
The entire policy of the admin:stra-
ton in relation to the Philippines, he
declared to be utterly wrong. His

court to enforce the liability of a bonds
man In the case in which he had recov-
cred a judgment against Emil A. Bechel
for $l07. The judgment was taken In
justice court in 1898 and the defendant
desiring to appeal the case gave bond
with Samuel Becherer as bondsman. In
common pleas court Myers got q judg-
ment for the full amount with added
costs making In all SIP. 1t has not
been paid and now he sues to compel
Becherer, the bondsman, to settle the
account.

HAIR TONIC
Being Applied When ChlOrOform
Was Substituted by a
Strange Man.

The danger of permitting strange men
to enter a residence in the absence of
the head of the household was well IL
lustrated in Toledo, recently. A special
from that city says: Mrs. H. p. Cole
man, of 1913 Huron street, was the
victim yesterday of a most dastardly
act on the part of a strange man. Mrs.
Coleman was alone in the house at the
time, her husband being at work, when
strange man appeared at the door and
offered to sell a hair tonic. He went
inside the house, and. ''in order to
prove the merits of his hair tonic" he
asked permission to apply some of it
to Mrs. Coleman's head, which he did.
While applying the hair tonic he man
aged to get a bottle Of chloroform from
his pocket and saturated a handker-
chief with it and placed it over the
woman's mouth and nose. Mrs. Cole
man was soon unconscious.
While the strange man was busilly
engaged applying more chloroform to
the handkerchief a young, man named
Lusk, who rooms at the Coleman resi-
dence, entered, and at his approach the
stranger fled, with Lusk in hot pursuit.
The stranger managed to get away,
however.
