State Should Close Saloons
Declares Attorney General Stead Erred
in His Opinion ON Governors
Power

Springfield, ILL.,, Jan. Especially =
In long signed statement, Robert H.
Patton, of Springfield, candidate in the
last election, on the prohibition ticket,
for governor of Illinois, replied to At
torney General Stead's recent opinion
that the governor has no authority to
interfere when the saloon closing law
is violated. Mr.. Patton declares the at
torney general should enforce the clos
ing act.
Mr.. Patton recites that Governor Jo-
seph w. Folk, of Missouri, has closed
the saloons in St. Louis on Sunday, and,
as a consequence, the saloons of East
st. Louis, ILL.,, are reaping harvest
each Sabbath in open defiance of the
laws of Illinois. The matter is one of
vast public concern, he declares, and
the people ought not to accept the at
torney generals conclusion as final.
81 maintain that it not only is within
the power, but it is the duty of the gov
ernor of this state to see to the faithful
execution of the laws governing dram
shop keepers, as well as all other laws,
on the part of the people of the state"
he declares.
Section 6 of article of our consti-
tuition provides that the supreme ex-
ecutive power shall be vested in the
governor, who shall take care that the
laws be faithfully executed
''By what reason or logic can it be
said that the dram shop laws are not
part of the laws of the state which are
included in the expression execute the
laws? The Chicago Tribune.

IS NOT SATISFACTORY
President Opposed to the Meat
Inspection Amendment AS
Adopted by House
HE MIGHT VETO THE MEASURE
He Discusses the Subject With Chair
man Wadsworth of the Committee
on Agriculture and Makes it Plain
That Committees Measure Is Not
What He Wants.

Washington, June 15.--A careful ex-
animation of the substitute proposed
by the committee on agriculture of the
house for the meat inspection amend
ment of Senator Beveridge to the ag-
ricultural appropriation bill has been
made by President Roosevelt. The
president, it can be said, is opposed to
the house substitute In its entirety.
He may not go so far as 10 veto the bill
if it should be enacted by congress,
with the house amendments attached,
not deem the provision at all adequate.
Representative Wadsworth, of New
York, chairman of the house commit
tee on agriculture, had a conference
late Thursday with President Roose-
welt regarding the action OF the house
committee. He submitted to the pres
ident the substitute for the Beveridge
amendment agreed upon by the com
mittee, and sought his opinion of 1t.
The president told him frankly that he
could not approve of 1t. In fact. after
reading the substitute carefully. the
president told Mr. Wadsworth that he
disapproved it absolutely.
The president discussed the suhjec.
with Chairman Wadsworth for a time.
indicating to him the specific points
on which he disagreed with the major
ity of the house committee. He point
ed out that the failure of the commit
tee to provide for inspection at all
hours, either of the day or of the night.
was defect which he could not pass,
and he urgently disapproved of the
court review clause of the substitute.
The president did not lay special stress
on the proposition of the committee
that the government should pay the
expenses of the inspection. altho he
feels that If the government is required
to pay the inspection charges the pro-
vision will render the law less effective
than otherwise it would be.
Writes Letter to Wadsworth.
After his conference with Chairman
Wadsworth President Roosevelt wrote
letter to him stating. in a definite
and formal way his objection to the
substitute for the Beveridge amend
ment. drafted by the house committee.
1t did not differ in any essential way
from the statements made by the pres
ident to Mr. Wadsworth personally.
The president wrote the letter, how
ever. in order that his position might
be distinctly understood and be of
record. No copy of the latter was
made public, the president preferring
that for the present at least, it should
be in the hands of Chairman Wads-
worth and his committee.
1t is regarded as possible by the
president that congress may enact the
meat inspection law along the lines
marked out by the house committee.
If such measure should be enacted

Deafness cannot Be cured

BY local applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by the constitutional reme-
dies. Deafness is caused by an infam-
ed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eusta ohian tube. When this tube
is inhamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing. and when it is
entirely closed, deafness is the result.
and unless the inflammation can be TAX
en- out and this tube restored to its
normal condition. hearing will be de-
stroved forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces.

the president does not say he would
not approve of it, but IL he should sign
it. he would append to his signature
a memorandum which would indicate
definitely and Enthusiastically to the
country that he regarded the law as
Inadequate and unsatisfactory.
Purport of Minority Report.
The minority report of the house
committee on agriculture which is eX-
pected today will contain three main
points of difference with the majority
provision. These are:
F'irst-That the cost should not be
put on the government.
Second-The court review.
Third-The waving of the civil SER
vice regulations for one year in the
appointment of inspectors.
AS to the last provision the report
will state that the appropriation of
s2.000,000 can be justified only on two
grounds-first, as a means of preserv
Ing the business of the packers, ana
second, the protection of the health OF
the American people. The answer OF
the minority to the first is that the
packers are we'll able to take care OF
themselves and should expect to pay
the expenses incident to the preserva-
ton of their business. AS to the sec
ond. If the packers have been the
faulty ones in bringing about condl-
tons requiring drastic remedies. they
should be willing to bear the cost of
the remedy
The court review amendment. ac-
cording to the minority report, gives
the right of review to the packers. but
gives no such right to the government,
thereby creating Il dangerous prece-
dent.
The waving of the civil service reg
ulations, 1t is contended. will I'LL the
packing house with inspectors appoint
ed by political influence which would
handicap them as free agents.

Now, here is the reason -
Most garments coming from the hands
Of the tailor have some errors or faults
which mist be corrected before the gar
Bment can be sold.
The Sincerity way is to take out such
faulty sewing and yevise the garment by
careful Hand lleedle-Work. That makes
the correction permanent and the gar
ment Yigtt.
And It's the way all SINCERITY
CLOTHES are made.
The other method is to use the Hot
F1at-Iron.
In other words, the well-known effect
of heat and moisture on fabrics, as APP
piled by DR.. Goose, is used to give
the Coat share only until it is sold.
sts* **
The man who buys it wears it on a
damp dav, and the Flat-Iron work scilts
oxt and leaves the garment as it was
before being "doped."
That accounts for the collars that
bulge out around the neck.
s Lapels that stand away from the
neck.
Goat fronts that wrinkle out of
shape and cause the coat to lose shape
and style.
4. IS
The great reason why this taking is
done, is--because tt costs more to make
clothes sincerity.
SINCERITY CLOTHES are not
"faked' by the Hot Flat-Iron.
When defects are found in SINGER
1TY CLOTHES they are corrected by
the Shears and Careful Hand Needle
Work. That is the secret of their Sim
cerity and the reason why they retain
their shape until threadbare.
The F'lat-Iron will often restore a
Coat to its original shape, but the gar
ment cannot retain that shape, unless it
is given pern!anenee by Hand Needle
Work.

FLIES IN AIR AT WILL
Boy Aeronaut Circles About Washing
ton Monument and the National
Capitol and Astonishes Congress and
the Whole City.

Washington, June ia wonderful
exhibition of aerial navigation was
given yesterday by Lincoln Beachy, a
youth, who in an air ship of his own
construction, startled Washington and
suspended public business for several
hours The experiments were probably
the most successful ever accomplished
in control and dirigibility. The air
ship, rude in construction, responded
accurately to the will of the boy aero
naut. He compelled it to circle Wash
ington monument and the great dome
of the capitol, descended and made a
landing when and where he pleased
and demonstrated to the satisfaction
of the thousands who witnessed the
exhibition that many of the rudiments
of aerial navigation have been solved.
New Record in Flight.
Santos Dumont and others who have
become famous because of successful
flights in air ships, never accomplished
what young Beachy did yesterday. In
an air ship siXty-two feet long and
sixteen feet in diameter, suspended
from a gas bag with a capacity Of TO-
coo cubic feet made of $50 yards of
Japanese silk, with a two-bladed pro-
peller in front and a large rudder, the
daring aeronaut made flight of near
ly twenty miles without serious acci-
dent.
Employed to make ascensions at a
ch in a n
air ship patterned after that used by
Roy Knabenshue. whom he had been
assisting. decided to demonstrate its
practicability by a flight around WASH
ington, visiting the principal points of
interest From point five miles down

Potomac and headed for the Wash
ington monument.

Then deliberately turning the afrship

FLOWS BY GRAvITATiON
water Supply at Carleton Pond Yer.
Fine This Season.

ABOUT six months ago the public
water supply from Carleton pond was
ii 81 used and since that time the
augusta Water District has been very
fortunate in the operation of the new
system, and especially with the new
pumping station. which was first put
INTO commission on January 18th. The
expense of sending the water to the
city has been very low, as the water
comes through the supply mains by
force OF gravitation for the most part.
In TACT, with the exception of three
weeks time, the water has been sent
from the pond to the city with
practically no expense to the Water
District. AS it costs from SIS to $40
day to operate the pumping station.
| the saving TO the company is made ap-
parent.
1t was not calculated in the begin
ming of the operation of the new
system, that the pumping station
would be out of commission for 50
great length Of time. but the tag-end
| of winter and the spring season was
! wet one" and Carleton pond has
been very high during this season, five
| or SIX inches of water running over the
dam at times. 1t is now proposed to
have flash board attached to the dam
in order that even more water may be
stored.
The purity of the water is assured
by succession of fortunate circum-
stances. The supply is fortunately
located. as there is not a building of
any kind within half mile of the
pond and the Water District controls
| the land for 500 feet all around the
pond i'll order to avert any possible
; contamination. The water is cool and
sparkling and is considered as good as
that served to any of the municipalities;
! in this State.
