Constitution TO Be Sworn to
by Gar Seems Safest.
WHITE SEEKS COMPROMISE
Many Liberals Believe the Premier Must
Make a Show of Opposition for
It's Effect Upon the
Emperor.

st. Petersburg, Nov. 24.-Premier
White is constant in his efforts to COM
promise some of the declarations in the
resolution adopted Wednesday by the
zemstvo congress at Moscow. He has
no hope the policy recommended by the
congress viii be completely satisfactory
to the government, as the constitutional
democrats have the ''bit in their teeth
Nevertheless, the declaration in favor
Of universal suffrage and the transforma-
ton of the national assembly into a
constituent assembly viii gradually grow
less distasteful to Count Witte.
Many liberals believe the premier
must make a show Of opposition for its
effect on the emperor and court, but
| it is privately known that he has been
convinced for some time that the elab-

charter Of Russian liberties to which

the present situation. Would at the
same time buttress the government

But he regards 1t as vital that the
moderate conservative majority should
draft the constitution. While ready 10

RATE BILL
ASSURED
Majority of Senate Committee
Agreed on Radical Legislation
PARTY LINES WIPED OUT
A Bitter Fight in the Senate Over the
Administration Measure Is Predicted
by Those Conversant With
the Conditions.
PARTY LINES WIPED OUT

Washington, Nov. 24.-The Senate
committee on interstate commerce will
report a rate bill in accordance with the
wishes OF the President and his support
ers. At least three Republicans, Cullom,
Dolliver, and Clapp, and four Democrats,
Tillman, Newlands, Carmack, and F0s-
ter, are known to be in harmony and pre-
pared to act together in making the rail-
road regulation measure the majority's
report.
This makes seven out of the thirteen
on the committee who have agreed to
unite for the administration plan. One
Republican, Willard of Nebraska, has
not indicated TO any of his colleagues
where he will line up, and his position
as yet is merely matter of conjecture.
The same is true of one Democrat, Nc
Iaurin of Mississippi, who has declined
to commit himself Four Republicans,
Chairman Elkins, and Senators Aldrich,
Foraker, and kean, are opposed to re-
porting such a bill.
This statement of the standing Of the
committee comes from the highest au-
thority. In some respects it does not
agree with statements that have been
made heretofore. For example, Senator
Foster has been put down in many lists
as opposed to the Presidents plan; but
| it can be stated that he has been angry
at what he insists is the misrepresenta-
ton OF his position ON any such state
ment. Willard, too, has been commonly
listed as opposed TO the administration
plan, but friends of that plan believe he
will be forced into line by political con-
iderations in this state, and that Nc
Laurin viii eventually join the majority.
| Advocates of the administration meas
ure regard it as great achievement that
they have secured cooperation between
Republicans and Democrats. They as
cribe Senator Aldrich's sudden departure
for New York to discovery of the fact
| that a majority report will be brought
out for the radical bill. A member Of
the committee said yesterday:
"a bin win be brought out by the ma
jority Of the committee, which will pro-
vide for an administrative tribunal with
power to declare rate unsatisfactory,
and fix new one that shall take effect
pending proceedings in the courts,
Whether that bill will continue the pres.
emit Interstate Commerce Commission, or
add to it, OF provide a new one, is not
yet determined, and is not III any way
essential. The essentials Of the majority
report are assured
| All indications now are that a long
fight viii take place in the Senate over
the report, with forces about evenly
Idiyided.

Washington, D. G., Nov. "a. Secretary
Taft yesterday said, relative to the au-

with expenditures for the Panama canal:
The Spooner act expressly authorizes
the making Of contracts necessary in
the construction Of the canal, appropri-
ates S10,000,000 and provides s135, 000,-
COO Of bonds to meet these obligations.
The President is authorized, therefore,

When they first invested in musical ex-

waiting for its profits to improve it,
they launched their first show in blaze

ROYAL TONIC
Beats Anything We Ever Sold as a
Strength Creator and Body Builder.

Our well-known druggists, Rickert &
Wells, are very enthusiastic over the
delicious cod liver oil preparation, which
contains no oil. In referring to the
matter. said Mr.. Wells. of the above
firm: 1--WE sell many tonics, and we
handle all kinds of remedies that claim
to be inyigorators and strength-creators.
We do this because we are druggists,
and it is our business to supply the
public with what they want.
when our advice is asked, however,
in regard to a tonic, body-builder or
strength creator, we invariably recon-
mend Vinol, as we know of nothing that
can compare with it.
"In Vinol modern science has given
us all of the tonic, body building and
curative properties Of that famous old
remedy, cod liver oil, actually taken
from fresh Gods livers, without drop
of the obnoxious and system clogging
grease which characterizes old-fashioned
cod liver oil and emulsions, and which
has proved such a drawback.
"Vinol is not patent medicine, as
the label ON each bottle tells everything
it contains, therefore you know exactly
what you are taking.
In the most natural manner it tones
up the digestive organs, creates hearty
appetite, makes rich, red blood, and
strenthens every organ in the body to
do its work as nature intended.
"Our faith in Vinol is so strong that
we gladly offer to refund the money
in every case where il fails to give
satisfaction. Rickert and Wells, Drug
gists.

FIND CHARRED BONES.
Maine Mystery Has New Light from
Yesterdays Discovery.

Wells, Me, Nov. 24.-The charred
skeleton of man was found in the
woods yesterday morning, about mile
west Of here, by woodehopper. The
skeleton had been there, perhaps, for
number Of years and all the skull but
the lower jaw was missing. The man
was either in his youth OF middle aged.
With the skeleton were soft felt
hat and pair Of No. 7 top boots. A
pocket book was picked up near by, in
which were II cents and a jack knife.
The finding Of the skeleton recalls
the mystery Wells authorities were call
ed upon to solve some seven years ago,
when the skull OF man with the lower
jaw missing was found about 100 yards
from the present discovery. The skull
had bullet hole in it, but nothing gave
clew to the mans identity. The new
clews may supply the missing links
Last simmer forest fire swept over
the spot, and the bones show the effects
to marked degree.

You Must
Sleep.

If you cannot, it is due to an
irritated or congested state OF
the brain, which will soon de-
velope into nervous prostration.
Nature demands sleep, and
it is as important as food; it
is a part of her building and
sustaining process. This period
of unconsciousness relaxes the
mental and physical strain, and
allows nature to restore ex-
hausted vitality.
