EXCLUSION OF JAPS
POLITICAL QUESTION
Congress Will Have to
Handle Problem.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 10
(SpeciaD Political observers believe
that the demand TO be made at the
coming session of Congress for the
exclusion of Japanese will prove to
be one of the most serious problems
with which the administration and
Republican leaders in both houses
will have to deal this winter. That
the President and his advisers are
keenly apprehensive of trouble in this
connection is shown by the refusal of
officials of the Department of Com
merce and Labor to discuss Japanese
immigration, and the determination of
Secretary Straus to suppress the pub
LEGATION of bulletins showing the
volume of Japanese immigration to
Pacific Coast States.
Japanese immigration was the sub
ject of prolonged discussion at re-
cent meeting of the Cabinet, and
there is good reason to believe that
Secretary Straus presented a report
showing that there has been no di-
minution in the number of Japanese
arrivals in this country Under the
law and the arrangements made with
Japan, admission is refused the sub
jects of that government unless they
are in possession of direct pass
ports. Japanese to whom passports
have been issued to go to Hawaii,
the Canal Zone, or other possessions
of the United States, or to foreign
countries, are not entitled to entrance.
Such aliens are permitted, however,
to pass through this country in
transit, and in this way, it is under
stood many Japanese not entitled to
admission manage to violate the law.
From the Pacific Coast comes an
insistent demand that Japanese shall
be excluded from American soil, and
the delegations in Congress from
States in that region intend to intro
duce and press to passage, if possible,
an exclusion bill What attitude the
administration will assume toward
such a measure remains to be. seen.

OIL FROM WATER
WAS FOND DREAM
fakir FIeeCed Savannah
Men and Skipped.

SAVANNAH, GA, Nov. 16.-(Spe-
ciall Representing the FOND dreams
If several Savannah business men
ana several thousand of their dollars
there exists somewhere an old man,
anarchistie in appearance, who some
considerable time ago visited SaVan-
nah in search of capital to back his
discovery of the method turning wa
ter, net into wine, but into oil and
meneJ.
Several ei1orts have been made to
find the old man, the money was al
ready gone when he disappeared, but
he seems to have been swallowed up
and it is whispered among those
whom his magic oil drew to his aid
that the Standard Oil, fearing the APP
pearanca of a possibly more power
full rival gobbled him UP and left
his supporters to search for him. The
public has been denied for long
while the laugh it is due over the
visit of the old man, and only a select
few have become hilarious over the
details of his secret meetings with
Savannah business men.
When the old stranger appeared in
Savannah he had with him little
girl, his daughter One man learned
of his pretension that he could turn
water into OIL an inflammable oil
that would substitute easily for kero-
sene. He went to the old mans room,
saw the experiment with the water,
watched the lamp fame and departed
to return accompanied by another
business man. Others became in
terested through whispered conf
dences, scoffed at first and then saw
the Transformation scene.
Finally one night the test of the
queer liquid was made. The business
men bought a lamp, not trusting to
the old chemist and fearful of any
trick, filed it full of water they knew
was free OF oil and then allowed the
few drops of the LIQUID to be poured
into the lamp. They sat grouped about
the Pickering lamp flames far into
the night The old man and his
daughter sat with them. 1t is said
that hour after hour passed and
stranger than that the lamp burned
at all was the fact that the mixture
into which the wick extended was not
diminished 1t seemed that it would
burn forever. In the flames, automo-
biles, palatial homes, private yachts,
summers in Europe, are said to have
appeared to the watchers.
The old man went on to New York
to get the machinery, accompanied
by one of the stockholders In New
York the chemist disappeared. His
escort returned to Savannah and the
search for the missing man and his
daughter continued Several thous-
and dollars spent in watching lamp
burn at the command of man who
looked like an anarchist, and in a
trip to New York had brought no re-
enumeration. 1t is asserted that the
business men still believe in his
alchemy and that Standard Oil by
spiriting him away prevented them
from reaping the fruits of their eff
forts.

HELP FOR RIVERS

WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov. 10
(SpeciaD The National Rivers and
Harbors Congress, to convene at the
New Willard, on December 4, and
6 will be of the utmost Importance.
The second session since the reorgan-
ization of the Congress, it will be
memorable from the fact that it will
give official stamp to the fact that it
was brought into existence for the
purpose OF advocating broad nat
ional policy with reference to inland

The ''Pure Food law

is designed by the Government to
protect the public from injurious IN
gradients in both foods and drugs. 1t
is beneficial both to the public and to
the conscientious manufacturer. Ely's
Cream Balm, successful remedy for
cold nthe head, nasal catarrh, hay
fever, meets fully the requirements of
the new law, and that fact is promi-
nently stated on every package. 1t
contains none of the injurious drugs
which are required by the law to be
mentioned on the label. Hence you
can use it safely.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1907-11-17

That platform, the justice of the
demand, for adequate annual appro-
priations for the great work of in
land waterway and harbor improve
ment, and the imperative necessity
for increased facilities for transpor-
tation have drawn the attention OF
all classes of trade and commercial
interests to the coming session Of the
Congress. Opposition to the improve
ment of the inland waterway and the
harbor has disappeared. The country
has come to recognition of the fact
that there is no possible hostility be-
tween the inland waterway and the
railway, but that between the two
there is nothing but healthy compe-
tition. III

opinion of them as follows: He says,
"They are a fine remedy. used them
them very ache and can recommend
them very highly. They did for me
what everything else failed to do.
They drove the backache out of my
back and relieved me of misery, from
which l had been suffering for a long
time. The trouble was a constant
heavy ache right across the small of
my back, and a disorder of the kid
neys. The secretions were in bad
condition, being dark, full of sedi-
ment and irregular. Medicines for
internal use failed to help me and so
did liniments. l read of how others
had been cured by Doan's Kidney
Pills, and deciding to try them got
a box. Since taking them the pain
has left my back, the kidneys are
working normally, the secretions are
in a natural condition and feel bet
