# Is safeSto say that no more enjoyable
\ event has ever occurred in Denison.
Mr.. j. 1. Gibson acted as president
,sand with fitting remarks introduced
each one who took part in the exer-
1 cises during the hour following the
banquet. The first Subject, "Pythian-
ism at Home,n was handled by l.. G.
Rusmisel who spoke of the founding of
the Order thirty-seven years ago by j..
Nh. Rathbone, OF the early obstacles
against which it had to contend, of It's
ltriumph over all, and said that to-day
it is only surpassed in extent of terri
tory by two orders, the Masons and
the Odd Fellows, and the comparison
of statistics will show that it surpasses
both of these in ratio and progress.
The Masonic Fraternity after existing
on this continent for almost two cen
turies, and the Odd Fellows for almost
one, have obtained membership very
little larger than Pythianism.

TEDDY
RETURNS
Vice President Elect
Passes Through.
Responds to Cheering Crowd
With a Hand Shake and a
Greeting.

Hon. Theodore Roosevelt vice-presi-
dent elect passed through Denison on
Wednesday evening. He occupied
private car on the rear of the North
western train No. 6. The train was
over an hour late and many who had
gone to the station to greet the peer
less Teddy, went to their homes before
the train arrived. When it did pull
into the station the crowd did not
know where to find the hero of San
Juan but some of the small boys locat-
ed him and Leslie Gulick first sighted
him and shouted "There's Teddy"
This was the signal for the crowd to
rush to the end of the train and for
Mr.. Roosevelt to come out on the plat
form and shake hands and extend his
greetidgs just as the train started. It
was only a glimpse but those who were
at the station felt repaid for their
trouble by the kindly spirit with
which they were greeted by the gall
liant rough rider chief

Case
lBY the Assoeiated Press.l


Washington. Jan. Tex Secretary
Carlisle, who appears as leading counsel
against the Government in the Porto
Rican customs cases, will make verbal
presentation of his views. Ills name,
however, appears as counsel in the brief
in the Dooley cases filed today. Fol-
lowing is a summary of the brief:
1st-At all time since the ratification
of the Paris Treaty Porto Rico has
been part Of the United States, being
as much so as any one of the acquired
States or Territories.
2nd-As a qualification of the treaty
the entire sovereignty over Porto Rico
but the executive and legislative de-
partments of the Federal Government
have only such power in relation to
Porto Rico as is granted to them by
the Constitutions
3rd-The President had not the power.
under the Constitution to make or en-
force the order of January 10th, 1899,
so far as it imposed duties upon articles
of merchandise brought into Porto
Rico from other parts of the United
States. This order so far as it concerns
duties was not a military measure.
4th--Congress had not the power UNI
der the Constitution to impose the
taxes or duties imposed by the act Of
April 18th, 1900, upon articles OF mer-
chandise shipped into Porto Rico from
other parts of the United States.

Especial to News and Observer.


Washington, Jan. Representative

opportunity pass without paying his re-
spects to the Crumpacker Bill, which has
for it's report the reducing of the repre-
sentation from the Southern States that
have passed laws regulating the fran
chise. His speech was replete with the
history of the Fourteenth Amendment
md he made it clear that 1t was never
President Lincolns intention that the me-
gro should ever become voter.
In the course of his remarks he an
swered the partisan speech delivered by
representative Linney on Saturday and
his answer was applauded to the echo.
Mr.. Kitchin was listened to with marked
attention and his speech was frequently
applauded.
One of the last speakers Of the day
was Representative Pearson. He took
occasion to criticise the Crumpacker bill
which had been advocated by Linney He
favored the Burleigh bill which he said
would give North Carolina eight Demo-
Gratis and two Republicans, while the
Crumpacker bill would send seven Demo-
Gratis to the House and no Republican.
Mr.. Pearson, while jumping on the Hop
kins bill. did not neglect the opportunity
to say several sharp things against the
election laws of the Tar Heel State. His
remarks were frequently applauded.
1t was stated tonight by a gentleman
in position to know that Representative
Pearson will receive the unanimous vote
of the Republican of the Legislature for
United States Senator.

And eating is simply perfunctory-

This is the common complaint Of

If eating sparingly would cure dys-
