Are you distressed after eating?
Does the food you eat seem to lie
like a ball at the pit of your stom-

Does your stomach seem bloated
after eating and full of gas?
Do you have dizziness and heavy
headache as though your head
weighed a ton?
Do you have what is commonly
called Sour Stomach, or Heartburn,
with water coming into the mouth
Do you have throbbing or palpi-

Do you have pain under the
shoulder blades or in the chest?
Are you nervous, irritable, de-

If you have any of these syrnp-

Beginning of spain's Decay.

Philip II and Bloody Mary" succeeded To
the greatest empire that was ever inherited
and II they had shown less interest in the
theological views of their subjects and more
In their material and moral welfare. If they
had been more tolerant and just. they might
have retained their authority. But Philip
impoverished his kingdom and lost much
territory With him the decay of Spain
began; nor has that decay ceased until to-
DAY, and 1t still continues. And Spain win
continue to be dying nation as long as the
present policy Is pursued by the govern
ment and people.
The trouble with Spain is:
1. Too much pride.
2. Too much politics
3. Too little respect for the dignity of
labor
4. Lack of enterprise.
5. Too many old-fashioned notions about
the proper habits of gentleman
9. There are too many crowded monas-
terfes and empty churches to support
Z. Too few schools.
8. Too many holidays.
8. Too many cigarettes
10. Too much dishonesty in official circles

Tuesday night, when all the appropriation
bills had been passed but two, and those
were in hand. Senator Tillman. who had
some claims amounting to $4,000 which the
Senate would not allow on their merits,
rose in his place and declared that neither
of those bills could be passed unless his
claims were embraced in one of them.
On their merits he could not have mus
tered dozen votes for his claims. Tillman
knew this because he had tried to have
them allowed. But the Congress being
within few hours of adjournment without
day, Tillman placed himself before the Sem
ate like a highwayman and demanded that
his fraudulent bills should be put where
they will be paid 1t was clear case of
blackmail. 1t was a threat that would
have forced an extra session of the next
Congress to pass the bills which he was
holding up. If the Senate had refused Till
man would have occupied the floor until the
hour Of adjournment. And this is sena-
torial courtesy. This is respect for the
venerated tradition of the Senate in favor
Of freedom Of debate!
The country Is very weary of this tradi-
ton which permits senators like Tillman
to become blackmailers and to compel the
Senate to vote money to pay claims which
are fraudulent in the judgment of the Sen
ate. 1t Is more than weary. it is Disguised
or indignant. A body of able men. it has
become the slave Of custom which has
been SO abused that finally ruffian stands
forth and holds the Senate up!
There is but one thing for the Senate to
do. and that is to get rid of its fantastic
courtesy and adopt some rules by which a
vote can be taken on specified day and
hour. 1t can no longer appear before the
country as helpless old man to be held
up and robbed. 1t needs and must have a
radical reform I'm its rules

ognition from organized labor in the South
than they have in the North 1t must be
remembered. however that Georgia is the
most advanced Southern State on the negro
question, and Atlanta the most advanced
city i'm Georgia.
1t may be true. as Mr.. Howell says. that
''if we are let alone the South will sue
cessfully and satisfactorily work out the
race problem" but how? Where and what
Will the negro be when the problem is
worked out in the Southern way? Will he
be a citizen or a serf. free man with all
that the term implies, or a slave in re-
spect of deprivation of civil and political
rights? If the North could be assured that
the ultimate solution of the race problem
by the South would be in accordance with
the principles of the Declaration of In
dependence of the United States and free
government it would be willing to wait
for the solution much longer than it has
already waited.

business or interfere with the rights Of an
other is unlawful. That Is an old doctrine,
but IL has never been invoked before to pre-
vent the ordering of a strike. 1t remains
to be seen whether it will hold good in such
case. Further. it is a stretch of jurisdic-
ton for the court - take cognizance OF
such a proceeding under the Interstate
commerce act. which was enacted to pre-
vent certain abuses by the railroads and not
to protect them against strikes. If the or
der is sustained by the higher courts it will
go far towards putting an end Ito general
strikes on the order of labor leaders.

THE PRIMARY ELECTION BILL.

If ever a party stood pledged to anything
the Republican members of the Legislature
are pledged TO enact primary election law.
Lest any Republican in the Legislature
may not recall this pledge, the resolution
of the last Republican state convention is
here reproduced:
The Republican party demands the adop-
ton and enforcement of proper laws regu-
lating nominations, securing to. every man
the right TO express his choice for the
candidate of the party to which he belongs,
whether the nominations are made by d.
rect primary or a delegate or mass con-
vention.
The Republicans constituting the large
majority of the intelligent voters in the
party earnestly desire the passage of the
Thompson bill as it came from the Sen
ate. They have no time to spend about
legislative halls urging Republican men,
bers to keep their pledges, but they
will be very indignant if the Thompson bill
primaries to be outvoted by hired mobs.
and they will not feel under any obliga-
ton to vote for Republican tickets nomi-
mated by fraud. This is plain speaking, but,
Republicans in the Legislature, 1T is truth
full and candid speaking. A few officials
and their henchmen who are opposing the
Thompson bill may tell the Republicans
in the Legislature that it will make no
difference, as Republicans will vote the
ticket once it is nominated no matter how
it is done. These men are deceived, as
they will learn when it is too late If they
induce enough Republicans to forget the
party pledge and help the Democrats to
| defeat this primary election bill.
The bill has been badly amended. but 1t
could not have been done had not enough
Republicans followed the Democratic eau
Gus leader, Adair. in voting for his amend
| ment, thus following Democratic leader
ship rather than adhering to the Repub-
| lican pledge. Such Republicans can scarce
| ly be proud of that roll call. The House,
however, pass it as it is. send it
to the Senate and trust to conference for
| the rest.
