Eufaula IT, IT, Indian Journal.
That no Statehood bill Will De &C

State or separately, which contains any
provision which restricts the state
from adjusting the qualifications OF
franchise of its citizens. has been
demonstrated since the Hamilton
Statehood bill passed the House.
This was brought on primarily by
the clause in the bill which refers to
schools upon which there is a diff
ference of opinion as to construction.
In Indian Territory there are a great

The argument is advanced that YER
mont. Massachusetts. New Hampshire,
North Carolina. South Carolina, Mis-
sippi and Louisiana each have consti-
tutional provisions which prevent
illiterates from voting. The New
England States have more stringent
provisions in this line than have the
Southern States. they include white
illiterates, while in the South only
negroes are DISTINGUISHED.
The people of the Southwest will and
do resent any move that would limit
their constitutional State rights. and

Supreme Court Hears Motion in Con-
trOversy.
The two cases in which w. T. Rob
ertson and the Montgomery Baseball
Association are parties were argued by
the attorneys yesterday before the Su-
preme Court.
There are two of these cases pend
ing. Their object is to have Southern
League Baseball of Montgomery played
at Athletic Park instead of at Highland
Oval. In one of the cases Mr. Rob-
ertson seeks to enjoin the Montgomery
Baseball Association, w. H. Ragland
and william stickney from playing
baseball anywhere except at Athletic
Park, under a three years contract
made with the Montgomery Traction
Company.
The second case seeks to compel the
Montgomery Baseball Association and
w. II. Ragland to make a settlement
with stockholders for the business done
during the year of 1903. A motion was
made yesterday before the court to dis
miss the appeal in the second case.
It is thought probable that a ruiz 7
on this motion win be made by the
court today.

STAGE PERSONS WED.
Miss Phelps and MIR. sprague VINO
splayed mt the Park.

Having played the part of lovers on
the stage since last September, l..
spencer sprague and Miss Julia Phelps,
members of the Mable Paige Company,
acted the part in real life last even
ing. when they were quietly married
at 7!4b o'clock by the Reverend Fa-
Their Tannrath of st. Agnes Church,
says The ST. Louis Republic OF June ..
Mr.. Sprague several years ago was
a st. Louis newspaper man. The lie OF
the actor appealed to him, however.
and he decided to quit the work OF
Journalism for that Of the stage.
His heart remained whole until he
.oined the Mabel Paige Company. and
former friends were led to believe that
he would remain true to his promise
of being a bachelor until the end.
While their company was making
tour of the South they were called
upon to take the leading characters In
Romeo and Juliet. This was last Octo-
her. The scene so impressed both OF
them and the cast was taken in SO
realistic a manner that though they
had known each other only short
time they became lovers from that mo-
ment. and. as Mr.. sprague says, soon
after he actually popped the ques-
ton" while he was reciting his part on
the stage
Miss Phelps is a resident of New
York and a highly accomplished young
lady. She recently fell heir to snug
little fortune. and 1t is her purpose to
quit the stage and have her husband
engage in some business in the East
Mr.. and Mrs. Sprague resigned from
the Mabel Paige Company at Mont
gomery, Ala, few days ago, and
came to st. Louis to be married among
friends and to see the Fair.

he was quite young, was prominent

Nothing in the records touched upon
the reasons that induced McGregor TO
send in his license.
Charges of unprofessional conduct
were brought against McGregor before
the Central Council OF the Bar Associa-
ton. Just what they were have not
been made public and will not be. 1t
may be said as result of the investi-
CATION of these charges was the sur
render of his license.
The Bar Association is laboring to
maintain a high standard of ethics
among the members of the legal pro-
fession and in this they have been
greatly assisted by an act which was
passed by the last Legislature. For
one thing this act provides that an
attorney can be disbarred for solicit
ing practice.

Dyspepsia Remedy That Cures.
II MI-O-na Does Not Cure, e. G. Fowler
VIII Refund Your Money.


VIII Refund Your Money.
Among all the remedies in Mr.. Fow-
lers popular drug store there are few
that he is willing to sell on a guaran-
tee to refund the money IL they do not
cure. Mi-ona, the famous dyspepsia
remedy, has made so many cures among
his customers that Mr.. Fowler says:
IF this remedy does not cure you,
bring back the empty box and I will
cheerfully return your money"
Anyone who has dyspepsia indiges-
ton, headaches, dizzy feeling, or liver
troubles, should take advantage of this
chance to be made well without any
risk Of spending their money to no
purpose. Mi-o-na will cure; will regu-
late the digestion, will enable anyon.
do this, the medicine will not cost you
a cent.
Mr.. Fowler has sold a great many
boxes of Mi-o-na in the last few weeks
and is yet to receive the first complaint
from any customer. Such a record is
simply marvellous and speaks volumes
for the merit of the remedy.
1t is easy enough to fill a column
with the symptoms affecting those who
have dyspepsia, but there is no need
of describing their condition What
they want is a cure. And they have
1t in Mi-o-na.
Do not suffer a day longer with dis
ordered digestion. If Mi-o-na cures
YOU IL costs soc box, and II It does
not you have Mr.. Fowler's personal
guarantee to return your money 60

WIVES OF SICK
HUSBANDS.
Is Your Husband a Victim Of Disease,
Has He Been DOctorlng for
Months or Possibly Years
in a Vain Attempt to
Recover Health 2
A Condition That Occurs In Many
Families.

We hear of many cases where the
anxious wife has herself taken charge of
the treatment of her sick husband, or
some other invalid member of the family,
with complete success. Kidney and
liver diseases produce much weakness
and misery and they are the diseases
with which the average physician seems
least able to successfully cope. A bottle
of Prickly Ash Bitters, obtained perhaps
in opposition to the wishes of the pa
tient, and taken under protest has been
known to accomplish more good than
months of regular medical treatment.
Don't let your husband die without urg-
ing on him to try the great restorative
power of Prick1y Ash Bitters. It has
cured where the best medical talent
available has failed.
Accept substitute. Insist on having
the genuine Prickly Ash Bitters with the
