It will be remembered that Presi-
dent Roosevelt said Judge Parker
lied when he said that the corpora.
tions were spending large sums of
money 10 aid his election Il will
also be remembered that he said
a. M. Whitney. of Boston, lied
when he said that the President
had sgreed with him that there
should be a substantial reduction
of the tariff on certain erticles
which they had discussed at the
White House. Therefore it vas
not unexpected that the President
should denounce Mr. Chandler as
a liar when he disclosed the plain,
unvsrnished dtclarations of the
President concerning his views and
the viewa of certain Senators on the
rate question. It doesn't need
much argument after the discIos-
ures of the life insurance investiga-
tions to show that Judge Parker
knew what he was talking about.
It will now probably be believed
that Mr. Whitney was right. Mr..
Chandler seems 10 have bulge ON
the President in the circumstances
connectel with the rate matter, and
altogether it begins TO look like
that for the first time in history of
the country We have a President
who can't remember what he said
or any cf the facts in given case,
and yet who is willing to denounce
as a liar a man who DOES know
what he is talking about. The
popular idol has tumbled frcm the
pedestsI The general public is
forced to the conclusion that all
the yeracity of the country is net
concentrated at the White House.
And it is shame that they should
have to form this opinion of their
chief executive in view of the facts
that have been developed.-Fair-

FOR THE KEoKUK MEDICAL
SOCIETY

Consumption is the most wide
spread of all the diseases common
to man, 1t has been termed The
Great White Plague.
Other diseases have caused great
or panic. more dismay and more
deaths in a shorter time, but oon.
sumption has been the most con-
stant of all, the most deadly scourge
of mankind.
Consumption causes nearly five
times as many deaths as typhoid
fever and nearly six times as many
deaths as was caused by any other
contagious or communicable dis
ease.
Think of it. out of every four
deaths in the world one dies of CON
sumption. There is no other known
disease with such rating.
It is estimated that 100000
lives are lost annually in Europe
by this disease and 10000 in the
U. s. 1t is not confined to no one
climate nor no GLASS of people but
is found in all climates and among
all GLASSES. While all other dis
eases have yielded to the progress
of science and sanitation, consumr-
ton has been steadily gaining
ground. In the state of Illinois,
where pure air is in abundance,
there were 200 more lives lost dur
ing the year 1905 than during the
previous year. The increase in
Illinois is no more than in all
other states and she gave 1900 pro.

Used as ingredients of DIR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. Black Cherry

During the Russian retreat gen

he may enter the race for the pole.
The greatest interest, however, at

North Pole which Walter Wellman Is
to make in an airship now being built
for the purpose by SantOs-Dumont, the
young Brazilian aeronaut. Thirty
years ago the proposition would have
been considered as much a dream as
one of Jules Verne's romances. 1t
would also then have been impossible.
But is 1t impossible now?
M. Santos Dumont Is supervising the
building Of the giant Of the air which
is designed to carry both these intrep-
i'd seekers across the, North Pole. 1t
is expected the airship will be COM
pleted in April, and that the start to
the northern base-Spitzbergen-will
be made in July.
This airship will be a monster. III

with three motors, with a combined

"If the winds hinder no more thai
they help and there are no delays, thi

to remain twenty-five to thirty days t
