INFLUENCE OF M0RMoNS.
Senator Morgan Would Not Oppose
Seating of Smoot.

Senator Morgan Would Not Oppose
Seating of Smoot.
Washington, Feb. I1.-Senator Nor
gan, almost Immediately after the
opening of the session to-day, resum-
ed his remarks on the statehood bill,
but branched off on the subject of the
proposed treaty with Colombia. He
referred to the concordat of Pope Plus
TX, which constituted a part of the
organic law of Colombia, and said that
the United States intended TO put the
heel of ignominious contempt upon it.
He predicted a return of hostilities
between the old Church party in Co.
lombia, and the Liberal party.
Taking up the subject of Mormon
influence in politics, Senator Morgan
referred to the election of Mr. Smoot
as senator from Utah, and said he
would never think of opposing his en-
try into the Senate because he was an
apostle of the Mormon church, be-
cause religion in this country, by the
constitution is intended to be free and
intended TO be protected.
Reverting to the treaty with Colon
bia for the construction of an isthmian
canal, Senator Morgan said the Unit
ed States intended to put the heel of
ignominious contempt on the organic
law of Colombia with respect to re-
ligious freedom and trample it under
foot.
I'VE are treating with those people"
he said. with the intent and purpose
of destroying that law, and under
such circumstances, as to disgrace the
United States He asked who was to
reconcile the two propositions, when
the Colombians contend for their or
ganic religious law, while the United
States is contending for the consti-
tuition of the United States and who
would prevent a return of the HOSTILE
ties now apparently closed between
the old Church party, who maintained
these dogmas, and the Liberal party,
who have been fighting them in every
country.
He said the people of the United
States are not going to listen to ar
guments against Mormonism in Utah
or Arizona, when we are Straining eV-
cry power for action upon a treaty
with Colombia having such an organic
religious law as he had referred to.
Senator Depew followed in opposition
to the omnibus statehood bill.
He said that the head of the Nor
mon church. who is the spiritual and
was in a position to say to the leaders
of both political parties, What will
you do to protect Mormonism?" If there
is any faTlibility in the world, he said,
it is the Judgment at election time,
of the political leader of any party.
IF that is true" interrupted Sena-
tor Patterson of Colorado, why did
the Republican party two years ago
make greater bid for the Mormon
vote than did the Democrats?"
Replying, Senator Depew said both
parties made every possible bid, but
the Mormons trusted the Republicans"
He characterized the anti-polygamy
provision of the statehood bill as a
sham, and said there had been no pro-
position from the Democratic side to
strengthen it.
Senator Teller said that if a day
would be set when vote could be
taken, the Democrats would all join
in strengthening the provisions refer
red to. At the conclusion of an exc
cutive session. the Senate adjourned
until tomorrow.

A DAILY NUISANCE.
A Simple Remedy Which VIII Inter-
est Catarrh Sufferers.

In its earlier stages cattarrh is more
of a nuisance than a menace to the
general health, but sooner or later
the disease extends to the throat,
bronchial tubes and even to the stom-
ach and intestines.
Catarrh is essentially a disease of
the mucous membrane, the local
symptoms being a profuse discharge
of mucous, stoppage of the nostrils, ir-
ritation in throat, causing coughing,
sneezing, gagging and frequent clear
ings of the throat and head.
The usual treatment by local dou-
ches, snufts, salVes, etc, often give
temporary relief, but anything like
cure can only be obtained by a treat
ment which removes the catarrhal
faint from the blood and the disap-
pearance of the Inflammation from the
mucous surfaces.
new remedy which meets these re-
quirements and which so far has been
remarkably successful in curing ca
tarrh is Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
These tablets act upon the blood and
mucous membranes only. They can
hardly be called a secret patent medi-
cine as they are composed of such val
liable remedies as Blood root, Hydras-
tin, Red gum and similar cleansing
antseptics, which cure by eliminating
from the bloOd ana nuSOuS surfaces
the catarrhal poison.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are large,
pleasant tasting lozingers taken in
ternally, allowing them to dissolve
slowly in the mouth, in this way they
reach the throat. fauces and the en-
tire alimentary canal.
If desired, they may also be dis
solved in water and used as a douche,
in addition to the internal use, but it
Is not at all necessary to use a douche,
a few of them dissolved in the mouth
daily will be sufficient. However,
when there is much stoppage of the
nose. a douche made from these tab
lets will give immediate relief, but the
regular daily use internally OF these
ablets will cure the whole catarrhal
trouble without resorting to the incon-
venience of a douche.
Or. Bement states that the internal
treatment for catarrh is rapidly taxi
ing the place of the old plan of
douching and local application, and
further says that probably the best
and certainly the safest remedy at
nresent on the market is Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets, as no secret Is made Of
their composition and all the really
efficient remedies for catarrh are con-
tanned in this tablet.
Druggists sell Stuart's Catarrh Tab
lets al fifty cents for full sized pack
ages. Ask your druggist, and II he Is
honest he viii tell you there Is no
safer, more palatsble, more efhc!ent
and convenient remedy on the market

AT THE THEATER

Hoyt's Comedy Company presented
1.-THE Live Wire" a realistic and
exciting play yesterday at they matt
nee. The audience was larger than
might have been expected in the stormy
weather, and the production was very
much enjoyed. At night the bill was
1.-TWO Married Women" The scene
of the play was laid In New York, In
the home of Dan Gillespie. which role
was filled by Loyal Ford. Jewell KEEL
ley appeared as lobe Jobson, garden
er. A number of good specialties were
given between the acts at both per-
formances. Baby Doris, a young
vaudeville performer who has won
much favor, appeared In several new
numbers.
The next performance of the COM
pany will be "A Desperate Chance"
to be given at a matinee tomorrow.
THE Field of Honor" will be given to-
morrow night.
Lewis Morrison will be seen at two
performances of Faust" to-day, matt

that this will be his last appearance
in Faust" before Savannah audience.
The sale of seats has been equal to the
largest of the season and by the time

popular actors than Morrison and this
with the elaborateness of his produc-
ton of Faust" insure large audiences
whenever and wherever he appears.
The Payton Sisters will occupy the
theater all of next week, except Thurs
day matinee and night when Hello
Bill" will be presented. The latter play
has been seen here before. 1t is far
cical comedy with all that goes to
make farce comedy a success.
The Chattanooga Times has this to
say of the Payton company. The
comedy, "a Husband on Salary" by
the Payton Sisters Company was very
successful play and was highly APP
preciated. AS usual, the speciahies
were one of the main attractions, and
between the acts the house was kept
in a continuous roar of laughter by
the specialists. The company is I'M
doubtedly one of the very best roper
toire companies that hes been seen
here"
