The wisdom shown by the dem ocrats in congress in waiting f,r republican action to develop the issues of the coming campaign is being vindicated. The leaders of the dominant party are making q record for extravaganza that will result in the defeat of the repub- lican party in .he coming national election. For instance, that ship subsidy bill Is not being received in many strong republican loeali- ies with welcome enthusiasm.

A CAUSE OF HEADACHE.
One Very Common Cause Generally
Overlooked

Headache is a symptom, an indication
OF arrangement or disease in some or
gan, and the cause of the headache is
difficult to locate because so many dis
eases have headache as a prominent
symptom; arrangement of the stomach
and liver. heart trouble, kidney dis
ease, lung trouble, eye strain or i'll fit
ting glasses, all produce headaches,
and if we could always locate the or
gan which is at fault the cure of OBJ
stinate headaches would be much
simpler matter.
However, for that form of headache
called frontal headache, pain back of
the eyes and in forehead, the cause
is now known TO be catarrh of the
head and throat; when the headache is
located in back of head and neck
il is often caused from catarrh of the
stomach or liver.
At any rate, catarrh is the most
common cause of such headaches and
the cure of the catarrh causes a prompt
disappearance of the headaches.
There is at present no treatment for
catarrh so convenient and effective as

ternal remedy in tablet form. COM

root. which act upon the blood and
cause the elimination of the catarrhal
poison from the system through the
natural channels.
Miss Cora Ainsley, a prominent school
teacher IN one of our normal schools.
speaks of her experience with catarrhal
headaches and eulogizes Stuarts Ca
tarrh Tablets as a cure for Them. She
says: Il suffered daily from severe
frontal headache and pain in and back
of the eyes, at times so intensely as
to incaDaeitate me in my daily du-
ties had suffered from catarrh, more
or less, for years, but never thought

finally became convinced that such was
the case, because the headaches were
always worse whenever l had a cold
or fresh attack of catarrh.

Lincoln, Neb., Dec. 12-Judge Peter
Grosscup of Chicago, lectured tonight
before the members of the law school
of the University of Nebraska on the
subject: "So-called Trusts-The Next
Great Step in American Politics.
Judge Grosscup treated at length the
causes and growth of so called trusts.
The desire to acquire property he
declared to be the spirit and soul Of
our civil institutions. Speaking of the
Sherman antitrust law, he said:

of this law, he cited the fact that of

Judge Grosscup denied that trusts
had made the conditions of ordinary

cost of living not increased more than
it would have been had no trusts eX-

STRONG OPPOSITION DEVELOPED
TO THE PENDING LABOR MEASURE

Washington, Dec. 12-The senate

that members of the international As
ISOLATION of Machinists had tried to de-
stroy the machinery of the battleship

he did not believe it ever occurred.

L. E. Payson, for the Newport News

MANSLAUGHTER
Is THE VERDICT
Thomas MCGEE Convicted For
Killing Henry Johnson.
WILL BE SENTENCED MONDAY
TESTIMONY SHOWED CRIME
WAS NOT PREMEDITATED.

TOR the killing of Henry johnson.
a negro who lived at Murray
Thomas MCGEE. a neighbor. whose
trial has been in progress since Mon
day before Judge Johnson in the dis
trict court, was yesterday declared to
be guilty of voluntary manslaughter
by a jury. The crime is punishable
by Imprisonment in the state peni-
tertiary for a period of from one to
ten years, at the discretion of the
court.
McGee's trial was begun Monday
morning and witnesses have been ex-
amined during the week both by the
defense and the prosecution. During
the course of the trial it was shown
that MCGEE was greatly incensed and
provoked at the. act of Johnson in
trespassing on his premises and de-
molishing property which belonged to
MCGEE. 1t was also shown that no
generalization or intent to commit
murder existed at the time of the
shooting but that the crime was com
mitted under the heat Of passion.
MCGEE, it was said. is an ignorant
negro. who is unable to read or to
write, as was shown to the jury, and
did not realize the extent of his crime
when ii was done He is the child of
parents who were slaves before the
emancipation and was raised with no
effort TO cherish or foster his intellect
or his nature He was born in the
state of Florida and has been in the
west for a comparatively short time.
These facts. which were brought out in
the evidence, and the apparent hon
esty of the man, are said to have in
fluenced the jury to return a verdict
as stated.
The verdict is regarded as satisfac-
tory by both the attorneys for the
prosecution and the defense. Sentence

introduced testimony in support of it's
claim that not only is the statute vio-

petition is stifed, contrary to public
policy and the policy of Minnesota as
expressed in its laws. Last evening
and today station agents of both lines
and shippers at competitive points were
put upon the stand to show that since
the merger had gone into effect COM

was the agitator who made this coun-
try a republic. that abolished slavery
and that saved the children employed
in the cotton mills in the southern
states.
Charge Denounced.
Mr.. Gonpers said he wanted to take
cognizance of a statement made by Mr..
Mulla yesterday and by Mr.. Payson to-
day alleging that the International AS
sociatiOn of Machinists had attempted
to precipitate a strike in the Cramp
ship yards during the Spanish war,
while government warships We're being
fitted out, and that some of. the labor
men had attempted to tamper with the
machinery of a transport. He vehe-
mently denounced the charge, and said
that Major Carson of the Thomas had
declared the statements as being with
out foundation, and had said that had
such an attempt been made to tamper
with the machinery of the ship he Gar
SOM would have known It.
1T is true" said Mr.. Gompers, that
the strike in the Cramp ship yards de-
layed the departure of the Thomas for
a week or ten days. but as matter of
fact it was not during the Spanish
American war but late in the year
1899" He added that the chief merit
in the statement was that there was
not scintilla of truth in it.
Calls For Proof.
Continuing, and speaking with much
fervor, Mr.. Gompers said: If any
man was guilty<of the act charged here
yesterday it was the duty of Mr.. CramD
as a citizen of our country to make a
criminal charge against him, and to
expose to the world what it implied.
The charge has not been outlawed by
the statute of limitation, and if the
charge has no foundation in fact 1t
simply reacts upon the heads of those
who have made the accusation.
He declared that if the bill should fail
TO pass il would be back again in the
next congress There is no ending in

complished,"

CALIFORNIA; FUTURE.
It Promises More to Laboring Glasses
Than any Other Country.

IT is very difficult for one who has
not looked closely at its location and
extent to appreciate the peculiar adj
vantages of California. In latitude it
extends from the southern line of
South Carolina north to the southern
line of Massachusetts, covering on the
Pacific slope a corresponding coast
line extending inland on an average
about 200 miles. Take the Atlantic
coast line covering the same width.
examine 1T critically, and see what a
hive of industry and what an i'm
mense population is covered.
Lay a similar area in the same lati-
tude in the Mississippi valley. run
ming from the northern line of Louisi-
ana to the northern line of Illinois,
and see what an agricultural region
it comprises. And yet California has
many notable advantages over either
of these tracts. In variety and fertiI-
ity of soil, in climatic conditions, it
stands far in the lead.
1t is true that some portions of the
state are untitled for the purposes of
home making. but most of these re-
gions are of the nature of great
natural parks-breathing spaces for
the multitudes who shall eventually
make their homes in this favored
state.
Nor can~it be that many years will
elapse before this inviting field VIII
be occupied. No part of our country
offers wider fields for good invest
Notwithstanding that are entirely
safe and that are sure of returning a

Far-seeing men have already secured
