ATTACKS STATE
CHARITY BOARD
ASSEMBL YMAN URGES THAT
IT BE ABOLISHED
Resolution introduced by Atkinson as
Result of Alleged Criticism of
Junketing Committeeman
at Whittier
Rv Associated press.

bN Associated lTeSS.
SACRAMENTO, Feb. TN the as
sembly an attack was made on the
state board of charities and correc-
tions' this morning by Atkinson, who
introduced a resolution looking toward
the abolishment of the board. The
resolution is based on an article in a
Los Angeles paper in the course of
which it appears that the state board
criticised the assembly committee on
tublic charities and corrections, which
recently made a junketing trip to the
Whittier Reform school. In the article
the board appeared to be accusing the
Legislators of having but hazy no
tion of why they had come to the
southland except for a good time
The resolution then continues:
Whereas, the state board of chari-
ties and corrections is a creature of
this legislature, instituted at the eX-
pense of the taxpayers of this state
for the purpose of enlightening this
legislature upon the conditions of the
public service and institutions; and
"Whereas, the insulting statement
above quoted indicates that the MEM
bers of said board are forgetting their
bers of said board are forgetting not
only the consideration due this legis-
lature, but their duty;
BE it, therefore, resolved, that this
matter and this resolution be referred
70 the committee ON commissions and
public expenditures with instructions
to investigate and bring into this as
sembly a bill providing for the aboli
tion of such state board of charities
and corrections by repeating the law
under which such board was consti-
tuted, providing the committee finds
such action desirable"
= The resolution was referred to the
committee on commissions for action.
Another effort was made in the house
today to shut off the pay of members
who absent themselves without ex-
cuse.
Assemblyman Drew renewed his
resolution providing that members may
draw their warrants for only the actual
days they sit in the legislature. The
author of the resolution said the state
had lost thousands of dollars last Sat
urday because so many assemblymen
had played truant
Assemblyman Chandler admitted he
had been absent Saturday and ought
to be made to forfeit his pay. Espey
made the same confession but was not
willing to forfeit his pay unless the
other members agreed to do so.
On roll call the resolution was lost by
a vote of 81 to 30.

FREIGHT BILL DEBATE
Speakers Very Generally Agree That
Relief Is Necessary

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Feb THE feature
of the debate in the house today on
the freight rate bill was the speech of
Mr.. Mccall of Massachusetts, who
maintained that it was Incompatible
with the fundamental principles of
private property. The granting of au-
thority to the interstate commerce
commission to fix rates. he said was
crossing the line between regulation
and confiscation in manner that out
ragged the most patent principles of
justice, and he inquired if any one
could imagine a more ideal method for
the destruction of private property or
one more likely to corrupt the Ameri-
can people. The powers vested by the
bill, he said were too vast and danger
Gus to be welded by any political gov
ernment and were likely to lead to
the destruction of cities and to gov
ernment ownership of railways, The
very air, he said, vibrated with the
demands of an aroused public appe-
tite.
"But who imagines" he inquired,
that the supreme court of the United
States will stand between the national
government and its vietim?"
He declared Immediately afterward
that, unfortunately, there was a dispo-
sition on the part Of the courts to up
hold the policy Of the party In power.
Despairing that the railroads would
get the protection to which they were
entitled, Mr. Mccall said that II the
lid OF this Pandora's box should be re-
moved everything would escape from
1t but hope He declared 1t would be
better to let the struggles between the
cities and the railroads so on than to
set up a little machine or deity,
such as the enlarged commission pro-
posed would be-

SACRAMENTO, Feb. 7.-Deputy
Sheriff John Simons of Alameda,
brought Fred Herman here today en-
route for Folsom state prison, to serve
six years for stealing bicycles.
While waiting at the depot for the
Folsom train Herman had permission
to get a drink of water, and when a
few feet away sprang through the
door, rushed into the crowd outside
and ran across the railroad yards,
lodging behind and between cars. The
deputy followed but the prisoner got
away in the American river brush.
Constables and deputy sheriffs came
to Simons' aid but the escape has not
been found. Herman has already
served one year in San Quentin for
burglary in the second degree.

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD
Also a Few Facts on the Same Subject


We hear much nowadays about
health foods and hygienic living, about
Vegetarinism and many other fads
along the same line.
Restaurants may be found in the
large cities where no meat, pastry or
coffee is served and the food crank
is in his glory, and arguments and
theories galore advanced to prove that
meat was never intended for human
stomachs, and almost make us believe
that our sturdy ancestors who lived
four score years in robust health ON
roast beef, pork and mutton must have
been grossly ignorant of the laws of
health
Our forefathers had other things to
do than formulate theories about the
food they ate A warm, welcome was
extended to any kind from bacon to
acorns.
A healthy appetite and common
sense are excellent guides to follow in
matters of diet, and mixed diet of
grains, fruits and meats is undoubtedly
the best.
AS compared with grains and vege-
tables, meat furnishes the most nu-
triment in a highly concentrated form
and is digested and assimilated more
quickly than vegetables and grains.
DR.. julius Remmson on this subject
says: Nervous persons. people run
down in health and of low vitality
should eat meat and plenty of it. II the
digestion is too feeble at first it may
be easily corrected by the regular use of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each
meal Two of these excellent tablets
taken after dinner will digest several
thousand grains of meat, eggs or other
animal food in three hours, and no
matter how weak the stomach may be,
no trouble will be experienced If a reg
ular practice is made of using Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, because they sup
ply the pepsin and diastase necessary
TO perfect digestion, and every form of
Indigestion will be overcome by their
use.
That large class of people who come
under the head of nervous dyspeptics
should eat plenty of meat and insure
It's proper digestion, by the daily use

posed OF the natural digestive prinei-
Piles, pepsin, diastase, fruit acids and
salts. which actually perform the work
or digestion. Cheap cathartic medi-
clnes' masquerading under the name
or dyspepsia cures, are useless for in
digestion, as they have absolutely no
erect upon the actual digestion OF
food
Dyspepsia in all its many forms is
simply failure of the stomach TO di-
gest food and the sensible way TO
solve the riddle and ,cure the dyspepsia
Is to make daily use at meal time of
preparation like Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, which is indorsed by the medi-
cal profession and known to contain
active digestive principles
All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets at 90 cents for full treatment

Of the responsibility for the present
condition Of affairs principally upon
the railroad directors. who. he said,
did not seem to realize their relation
TO the public, but had only the one
thought in mind Of sufficient fnan-
cial return for the interests they rep
resented. The trafic managers, he de-
clared, were obliged to earn the utmost
out Of their properties in order to hold
their positions. Many Of these men,
he said, had told him that neither the
president nor directors Of their roads
had ever directed them to change a
rate. He would support the Townsend
bill, but he anticipated 1t would not
afford much help to the shipper in its
present form 1t would, he said, ope-
rate more psychologically than actu-
ally.
The views OF the speakers as to leg
islatlon needed were many and varied,
but, with the exception of Mr.. Mccall
and Mr.. Sibley (Pa.) all were agreed
that the time had arrived for the grant
ing of relief. The names of w. J.
Bryan and President Roosevelt figured
prominently In the discussion, the al
legation being made from the Demo-
cratic side of the chamber that the
presidents recent message to congress
on the subject of rate legislation only
reiterated the views of Mr.. Bryan and
the declarations of the Democratic
party in three national platforms.

BOODLERS

COURT REFUSES TO CONSIDER
DILAT0RY PLEAS
August w. Machen and the Groffs
Must Go to the Penitentiary.
Lorcnz Still Sick
at Home

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Feb 7.-August w.
Machen, former general superintendent
Diller B. Croft of this city, both under
sentence of two years Imprisonment
and $4,000 fine for postal conspiracy,
today surrendered themselves to the
United States marshal and were placed
in the cell room of the city hall. Sam
uel A. Croft, whose counsel sought to
have his removal to the penitentiary
deferred because of illness, was or
dered brought into court and later was
placed in the cell room with the others.
The case came UP today in the GRIM
inal court on receipt of mandate
handed down by the court of appeals
directing the immediate execution of
the sentence of Maehen, DR.. Lorenz and
the Groffs.
Attorney Maddox, for Samuel A.
Croft, produced a certificate of two
physicians saying that he was not in
condition to be moved from his house,
and suggested that if the district attor-
ney wanted to imperil his clients life,
as well as his liberty, lie had better
take gun and go to the house.
District Attorney Beach replied that
Samuel A. Croft. his surety and his
attorney had been advised of the pos
sibility of this mandate for some time;
that Samuel A. Croft had visited the
district attorneys office last Thursday
and that Groff's son yesterday COM
municated with the district attorneys
office to know what clothing his father
might take with him to the peniten-
tiary. Under these circumstances the
district attorney suggested, it was
rather a sudden stroke of illness.
Mr.. Beach insisted upon the imme-
diate appearance of the prisoner and
he was sent for. Nothing has been
heard today of DR.. Lorenz, who is re-
ported i'll at his home in Toledo, Ohio.
Machen and the Groffs will be taken to
the Moundsville, w. Va, penitentiary
this afternoon.

investigating committee Of the senate
to substantiate the charges presented
by the affidavit filed by William Cor

This morning Clarence Grange, the
secretary of San Francisco building
and loan association, who declared that
he raised the money that is said to
have been passed TO the senator's
