challenging Senator Martin to Il Joint de-

garded as almost equally certain that
Senator Martin will accept. The senator
was not In the city yesterday, and has

would undertake 20 speak positively for
him. There Is good reason to believe,
however, that the senator will accept tho
challenge.
Nothing definite or authoritative can be
learned as TO the terms OF debate. Some
Of the senator's friends advise him to
stand upon his right as challenged

him to accept the proposition and give

farm on the Colorado river. Africa
and Asia are being ransacked for date
plants to be tested on the farm, and
the possibilities are immense. 1t is a
f.-ct and not merely theory that dates
will grow in California, and all that is
necessary to create a valuable new
industry is to discover the right vari-
cites and the most favorable districts
in which to grow them. In the same
liberal manner Secretary Wilson has
come to our assistance in the SMYRNA
tg industry, and in soil surveys irri-
cation Investigations and viticulturaI
experiments And our state, recognize
ing the Importance of these industries,
has not been idle. 1t appropriated in
the last legislature $150,000 for a uni
Versity farm which is bound to be Of
lasting benefit to horticulture, as we'll
as to the animal industries and every
kind of farming. 1t also provided for
a pathological station to be established
at cost of 100000 for the study of
diseases of orchard trees, fruit and
vegetables. Equally important was
the appropriation of $4,000 to be spent
in viticult tLral research by the sci
entists Of the university. NOther ap-
preparations and laws of benefit to the
farmers were passed.
LAS an evidence of how everything
agricultural tends to come to Califor-
mia, we expect this year three national
conventions of peculiar interest to
farmers, and there will also be three
national educational conventions.
"In conclusion L wish to say that
while the horticulturists of Califor-
mia have accomplished wonders, more
and greater things will be done by the
generation which is to come after us.
There is no limit to California's pos

sufficient to show how far California
had outstripped every other state, for
New York, the next largest producer,
contributed less than $16,000,O00. But
these figures are six years old. One

Once said That The Way 10 Keep the

But Hc Did Not Tell How to Make II
Healthy.
The muscles of the body can be
developed by exercise until their
strength has increased manifold, and
q proper amount Of training each day
will accomplish this result, but IL is
somewhat doubtful whether you can
increase the digestive powers of the
stomach by eating indlgestible food in
order to force It to work
Nature has furnished us all with a
perfect set of organs, and if they are
not abused they will attend to the
business required Of them. They need
no abnormal strength
There is limit to the weight n
man can lift, and there is also q limit
to what the stomach can do.
The cause Of dyspepsia, indigestion
and many similar diseases is that the
stomach has been exercised too much
and it is tired or worn out. Not ex-
ercise but rest is what it needs.
TO take something into the stomach
that will relieve it from it's work for
a short time--something to digest the
food--win give It rest and allow it
time to regain its strength.
The proper aid to the digestive or
gans is Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets,
which cure dyspepsia, Indigestion gas
on the stomach and bowels. heartburn,
palpitation of the heart, and all stom-
ach diseases.
Rest and invigoration is what the
stomach gets when you use Stuarts
Dyspepsia Tablets. for one grain of
the active principle in them is suffi-
cient to digest 5000 grains of food.
The Tablets increase the flow of
gastric juice, and prevent fermenta-
tion. acidity and sour eructions.
Do not attempt to starve out dys-
pepsla. You need all your strength.
The common sense method is to di-
gest the food for the stomach and give
it rest.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do not
make the cure, but enable the organs
to throw off unhealthy conditions.
Perfect digestion means perfect
health, for under these conditions only
do the different organs of the body
work right and receive the building
up material found in pure blood.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are a
natural remedy and are a specific for
stomach troubles. The ablest physi-
cans prescribe them.
The Tablets are pleasant to the taste
and are composed of fruit and veget-
able extracts, golden seal and pepsin

GRISC0M SAYS TOGO
WILL VISIT ABROAD
U. s. MINISTER ARRIVES IN SAN
FRANCISCO
Luke E. Wright, Governor General Of
the Philippines, Comes on Same
steamer-Says Conditions Are
Hopeful in the Islands

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 5.-Minister
Griscom, Americas diplomatic repre-
sentative at Toxic, who arrived here
today on the Manchuria, confirmed the
report that Admiral Togo proposes to
visit foreign waters. He says that the
admiral informed him of his intention
to take Japanese fleet to England and
the United States next year. Admiral
Togo proposes to go via the Suez canal,
but is undecided as to what route he
will take in returning home.
Minister GriscOm, who is accom-
panied by his wife and her mother, said
that his trip was taken purely Tor
pleasure. as he had not been home for
three years. He will go direct to New
York and Washington, and expects to
return to Toxic after his vacation.
Gen. Luke Il. Wright, governor of the
Philippines, who also came over on the
Manchuria, said that the primary OBJ
iect of his visit was to be present in
Washington when the bids for the con-
struction of railroads in the islands
were opened. Conditions in the Philip
pines were never more hopeful than at
present. There were practically no dis
turbances and the great mass of the
people were prosperous and contented.
Great progress was being made in all
of the islands, especially in Luzon.
Sanitary regulations had done much to
improve the general health, and the
young natives were quick to assimilate
American ideas. The proposed railroads
would be OF great value in developing
the country, for which a great future
was predicted.
Speaking of commercial interests
Gen. Wright said
Last year we cut our imports of rice
from S11 900 900 to $7,000,000. and this
year we will take off S4,000,0CO more and
next year will be exporting. Our eX-
ports of other products are rapidly In
creasing.
Miss Roosevelts visit WAS creative
of great good feeling toward the United
States. for the people down there re-
garded it as a kind of official recogni'
| ton of their status as American cft-
zens. They want this status emphasized
by the extension to them of colnmercia
reciprocity, so that they will have a
chance to make living. That is only
natural and it is strongly hoped doWr
there that the present session of con-
gress will bring them relief

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 5.-Capt. A.
c. Baker of the cruiser Raleigh, who
has been detached for several months
to study commercial and political con-
ditions in China, was a passenger on

"to talk of the boycott as dying out.
The commercial situation in the south

iron hand, and they have given orders
not to handle American goods 1t is
almost impossible to get at them. OF
course, we have treaties guaranteeing
the free circulation of our goods, but
supposing the coolies on the docks, the
carriers on the streets and everybody
connected with the handling of goods
refuses to touch them, what are you
going to do? American warehouses in

and they can't bulge it.

chants are charterng everything they

not so good as ours, but they are COM
mitted to this war on American pro-
ducts and are prepared to make sacri-
fees to carry it out. When Chinese
merchant is ready to make sacrifices
for a principle he has been nightly
stirred up over the issue. The boycott
is just reaching the interior, for meth
ods of communication are SLOW and if
the strike We're called off today it
would take a year for the news to
reach the provinces up the river,

Japanese, are taking advantage of the

Strike Still Holds
The strike of the post and telegraph
employees appears to be no nearer a So

by troops, The striking telegraph ope-
rators attempted to hold a meeting to-
day III the building of the Imperial
Economic society. The president Of the
society was informed that the meeting
could not be held without the authority
of the prefect of police and he drove
to the prefecture to obtain the desired
permission. Meanwhile Cossacks en-
tered and demanded that the meeting
disperse. The strikers refused to obey
the demand, whereupon a commissary
of police ordered the Cossacks and the
police to disperse the meeting, which
they did beating all who remained
with the flats of their swords and with
their whips This affair has apparently
strengthened the strikers to stand firm
until their demands are granted. The

Mrs. Andreas johnson Tells Pitiful
Tale Of Poverty and Want-Lab abor
Organization Dlsavows All
Responsibility

Lying rigid in death at the morgue is
the body of Andreas Johnson. n car
penter who died yesterday at the county
hospital after three weeks illness with
typhoid fever. At his little home on
Slauson avenue and Los Angeles street
mourning his death are his widow and
children with barely enough money Ia
pay for their next meal.
The last few days of the dead mans
history is one Of the most pitiful tales
that has come to light i'm Los Angeles
for many years. The actual conditions
that have existed in the Johnson home
and with which he and his wife have
battled for the past year did not be-
come known until after the mans
death, which occurred suddenly yester-
day morning
Three weeks ago. for the first time
after many months spent i'm enforced
idleness Johnson secured work as a
carpenter in the construction of house
on Pico Heights. According to the
story told by the widow, no sooner had
her husband gone TO work than dele
gates from the Carpenters union
swooped down on him and ordered him
from the premises telling him that he
could not work until he had become a
member of the Carpenters union.
Frightened at this sudden return OF
misfortune. johnson sought the counsel
Of his brave little wife.
Raises Part of Money
The delegates from the Carpenters
union had, Mrs. Johnson says, Informed
her husband that to become a member
of the union he must pay an admission
fee of SO, and after that meet tern
fees. AS a last resort he and his wife
| set about to raise sufficient funds tC
make him a member of the union sc
that he might work and earn their daily
bread.
The securing of the demanded $tt
seemed an almost impossible task NJ
matter how carefully the dollars thai
came in were watched a dozen neces
sary places were found for them. Tht
| family fund had gradually decreased tC
S., with no hopes that sufficient money
could be raised to- enable Johnson tt
join the union.
Johnson again took counsel with hi
wife and between them it was agreed
that they should turn over their las
So to the union and ask for credit fo
the other $5 so that Johnson could gc
to work.
The union agreed to give johnson
time in which to pay the So still du,
and allowed the poverty-stricken hus
band and father to go to work. In
few days time Johnson had cleared hi
debt and, in the words of his wife
things began to look brighter for them
Then came the most disappointing blow
that had yet visited them. johnson
was suddenly taken i'll after only a few
days work.
