ROOSEYELT'S BAN
IS ON B0SSISM
President Declares Against New
York State System in Re-
publican Party Circles.

Washington, Nov. 80. President
Roosevelt has declared himself against
bossism'' in New York city politics.
He deprecates the interference Of out
siders in the politics of New York
county and has indicated his view that
nothing ought to be done by such out
siders that might be, confounded with
dictation.
The president has discussed the sit
uation in New York frankly with sew
eral of his callers, and has written some
letters to those directly interested in
the New York republican organization.
He has suggested the names of five or
six men, any one Of whom, in his iudg-
ment, would prove an acceptable Presi-
dent Of the New York county commit
tee; but he has let it be known that he
has not attempted to dictate the selec-
tion of any candidate for county chair
man or proclaim his choice to any per-
son who has approached him on the
subject.
He has expressed an opinion, as a
citizen, that whoever is chosen chair
man should be a man of the highest
character and reputation, and should
possess the necessary independence tc
make it certain that he would conduct
the affairs Of the republican organiza
tion in New York county on a high
plane Of efficiency and integrity, with
out regard to any boss or any machines
The president has stated distinctly
that what is needed is the right type
of man, and it does not matter what
particular man he is. He has urged
| that the only healthy way to treat the
republican party in New York county
is to treat it in practice as in theory
SO as to make it capable Of self-govern
tment. vs

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful 1t Is in
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature, but
few realize it's value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take Of it the better; it is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present In
the stomach and intestines and carries
them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating on
ions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural and
eminently safe cathartic.
1t ~absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; it
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison Of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another, but probably the best
is in Stuart7s Charcoal Lozenges; they
are composed of the finest powdered
Willow charcoal and other harmless an
tiseptics in tablet form, or rather in
the form of ilarge, pleasant tasting loz-
enges, the charcoal being mixed with
money.
The daily use of these lozenges will
soon tell in muchamproved condition
Of the general health, better complex
ion, sweeter breath and purer blood,
and the beauty Of it is, that no possi-
BILE harm can result from their con-
tinued use, but, on the contrary, great
| benefit. r.
A Buffalo physician, in speaking Of
the benefits of charcoal, says' 81 adj
wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all
patients suffering from gas in stomach
and bowels, and to clear the complex
ion and purify the breath, mouth and
throat; also believe the liver is great
ly benefited by the daily use Of them;
they cost but 25 cents box at drug
stores, and although in some sense a
patent preparation, yet I, believe 1 get
more and better charcoal in Stuart 8
Charcoal Lozenges than in any of the
ordinary charcoal tablets.'

FRAUD COMES TO

Mankato, Mimi, Noy; so:-Buneoed Cd

rived here yesterday, John N. Terrett
of Grafton. w. Va, came to Mankato
to claim a half interest in the Hubbard
Milling company's 100000 plant Of the
tors. He brought with him a deed to
the half interest in the property, WHICH
he claimed he had received from the
late R. D. Hubbard in the latter's Chi,
cago office Aug. 20, in consideration of
a cash payment Of $1,000. The deed
made elaf out on f15fsfsa prnsa f6r but Mt ali
the wording was in writing, evidently
the penmanship of one man, including
deed, signatures, acknowledgements etc.
Terrett is native of Germany, about
40 years of age, and hard d-Worklng,
frugal mechanic. He says that FOR some
Baltimore & Ohio railroad, but was a
miller for two years in Germany. His
story is that while in Chicago the last
Of August he formed the acquaintance

One clause was that the purchaser was
not to assume control Of his interest
till Dec. !. Terrett left Chicago and
resumed his work on the railroad, and
did not learn Of the sudden death of
the real R. D. Hubbard until he passed
way to Mankato.
BY curious coincidence Hubbard
happened to be in Chicago on Aug. 20
the day the transaction took place, anC
his sudden and somewhat sensational
death occurred that very evening. This

TRADE WAR WITH
GERMANY AT HAND
Kaiser's Government Formally
Denounces Reciprocity Treaty
with America.
Journal Special Service


Washington, Nov. 30.-Germany has
formally denounced at the department
of state the reciprocity treaty between
the United States and Germany, en-
tered into under the provisions Of the
Dingley tariff law. This will result in
large falling off of American exports to
Germany, and, unless a satisfactory new
arrangement can be made, will undoubt-
edly precipitate a commercial war be.
denunciation was served on Secretary
Root by a member of the German en-
bassy. II
Under the treaty Germany received a
70 per cent reduction on still wines,
Vermouth, Argols and works Of art Of
German origin imported into the United
States. In return for these concessions
Germany admitted American goods at
the minimum tariff rate when imported
into Germany. =
Unofficial notification of the inten-
tion of Germany to denounce the reel
procity treaty was communicated to
this government some months ago, and
at that time a disastrous commercial
war was narrowly averted. This gov
ernment contended that the making by
Germany of new trade treaties with
other continental nations of Europe
would not involve the abandonment Of
German foreign office took the opposite
view Of the matter and denounced the
treaty.
Efforts have been made by Secretary
Root to negotiate another treaty. For
several weeks he has been comforting
with members Of the senate and house
with a view to securing their views
as to the prospects Of the ratification
of a new treaty. Mr.. Root has made
some progress by securing number of
promises Of senators to vote for a. new
treaty, but when it is submitted to the
senate it will precipitate bitter fight,
especially as some of the western mem.
bers favor revision Of the tariff and
take the position that no treaties
should be negotiated until a new tariff
law has been enacted.

the standpoint that it is not subject to

have been formulated, and he is now
engaged to the best Of his ability in
answering the statements made from
time to time concerning him.
When Mr.. Hamilton was asked
whether he would return to New York,
he said it would depend entirely on the
determination of the doctors. The friend
OF Mr.. Hamilton added: "Judge Ham

cure at the springs. His illness is now

the doctors decide that his return to
the springs is imperative, Judge Hamil-

to him than this insurance contro'
sversy.'.' .">

able to complete and forward his an
