CHALLENGED RAYNFR.
Poe Invited Senator to Joint Debate
on Suffrage Amendment.

The overwhelming surprise of the demo-
crs tic meeting in Baltimore last nj ht was
a challenge from Mr.. John P Poe to Sen
ator Rayner to meet him in joint debate
any night next week to discuss the suffrage
an endment.
Coming at the end of strong argument
and discussion of every phase of the pro-
posed new section of the constitution, Mr..
Poe's action was like thunderclap, and
loud cheers greeted the announcement.
Mr. Poe qualified his challenge by the
statement that it must be dignif1ed de-
bate free from personalities and without
disorder from those who attended. He re-
ferred in his Introduction to the round
about way in which he had learned of Mr..
Rayner's determination to include him in
the challenge sent Mr.. German, and he
also announced that the Junior senator wal
his personal friend
In beginning his challenge he assured
the audience that his name had been
coupled with that of Senator German,
and while the announcement was not in
tended. he was sure, to be contemptuous,
Mr. Rayner's statement that he (Mr. Cor
NAM should bring Poe along with him,
and that he would give them both a chance
and also pay for the hail, was hardly the
proper way.
II do not like to parade myself as a
champion" he<announced, but the time
never was when 1 was afraid to. meet any
man. My convictions and belief in the
justice and equity of the amendment are
as firm as are Mr.. Rayners to the con-
trary. Having waited for the circuitous
and indirect way the challenge was made
In the presence of this meeting / hereby
challenge Mr.. Rayner to joint debate any
evening next week that he may name"
Mr.. Rayner's Response.
Il have not heard from Mr. German"
said Senator Rayner when asked If he
would accept Mr.. Poe's challenge 81 wish
Mr.. German to be present. Mr.. Poe Or
any one else can come, but want him to
bring Mr. German with him. Unless Mr.
German is there 1t will be like the play of

DR.. Pierce and his assistant chem
lists and pharmacists tedious coGrse
OF study and experiments, extending
over several years. With the use Of
chemically pure glycerine, of just the
right strength, and with laboratory
apparatus and appliances specially
invented and designed to carry on
the delicate processes employed, Dr.
Pierce finally found that all the me-
dicinal principles residing in the Sc, :
eral native medicinal roots could be
more perfectly extracted and better
preserved from fermentation than if
alcohol was employed.
Besides, the glycerine of itself
possesses the property of greatly
enhancing the efficacy of the several
medicinal agents employed, whereas
alcohol is well known to be objec-
tionable in any medicine to be EN-
ployed in chronic or lingering dis
eases, where, at best, treatment
must be continued over a consid-
cradle period of time in order to
make the cure complete and periua-

MERRILL TO ESCAPE MUST
GO TO OREGON.

be at the gates of the state peniten-
tiary Monday noon when Harry

laws in escaping by passing rifles into
the Oregon prison, which were used
with such deadly effect when the time
came for them to make the break for
liberty.
Wright is aware that he is wanted
in Oregon and it will be no surprise
to him when Sheriff Culver places him
under arrest as soon as he steps out
side of the prison gates. Monday
Wright will nave served a three year
sentence for burglary. He was sent
to the penitentiary soon after Tracy
met tragic death in a wheat field
near CrestOn. For two years the Sa-
lem officials have been tracing the
men VINO furnished Tracy and Merrill
with rifles with the result that the
crime was charged to Wright and a
companion named Monte, who is now
serving out a sentence in the Oregon
penitentiary.
