effort of the opponents of the Kaiser
to elect Reichstag hostile to his
policy a remarkable document enti-
tied "The Kaiser on Trial. was pub
lished today, just week before the
voting in the present election. Under
the nom de plume Truth the writer
declares that the issue is whether the
German people will decide to mani
fest entire confidence in their abso-
lutte ruler or give that power to the
elected representatives of the nation,
as in other European countries, ex-
cept Russia
The writer attacks the German ma
w. which is supposed to be one OF

whole Indictment in the pamphlet is
that Kaiser William has been gi-
gantic failure.

used in the pamphlet it was printed
in Switzerland, and will be widely
distributed. as the socialists are large
ly depending on it for electing their

NATURES CArAa1su CURE,
Sensible and Scientific Way 10 Cure
This Disagreeable Disease.

Nearly everyone sufferers at one
time or another with catarrh.
The natural way to cure this dis.
agreeable disease is by applying heal
ing indications direct to the diseased
spot.
In no other way can this be done
as naturally as by the use Of Hyomei,
breathed through the neat pocket in
haler that comes with every outfit.
Put several drops Of Hyonlei in the
inhaler and then for few minutes,
four or five times a day, let the air
you breathe come through it. In that
way all the air that enters the nasal
passages, the throat or the lungs, is,
filed with Hyomei's healing n1edica-.
ton, reaching the most remote air
cells OF the respiratory organs, de-
stroying all catarrhal germs and
soothing and healing the irritated mu-
couS membrane.
A few days use Of Hyomei will
show how quickly it relieves all ca
tarrhal conditions, and you Will not
have to use it long before you find it
has effected Z complete and lasting
cure
So strong is ]. F. W. DeLorme's
faith III the power CT Hyomei to cure
catarrhal troubles that with every
dollar outfit he gives guarantee to
refund the money unless the remedy
gives satisfaction. He takes all the
responsibility and YOU cannot afford
to suffer longer with catarrh when an
offer like this is made to you.
Should extra bottles of Hyomei be
needed they can be obtained for soc.
making this one Of the most econom-
ical as Well as the most reliable rem-
edies for catarrh that is known.

He Still Resents the Charge Made
BY Senator Tillman That They
Were in League With Barkeepers-

Columbia, Jan. 22.-Representativ
Cade Mann, who is also a Methodist
minister, refused to vote today to con-
firm the election of United States Sen
ator Tillman, giving these sensational
reasons:
q wish to state my reasons for not
voting for TIE Hon. Benz. r. Tillman
to succeed himself in the United
States senate.
First. He made wanton and
malicious attack upon the ministry Of
South Carolina, charging them with
being in league with the ex-barkeep
ers of the State, with Col. Jas. a.
Hoyt as their standard bearer, to
defeat and destroy the dispensary law
in South Carolina; this he knew was
false and an outrage on common de-
&C acy.
Second. Before I could vote for
him l should have to know how much
money he returned to Mr.. Hubbell as
rebates allowed the State of South
Carolina I contend that as governor
he was handling the money of the
| State, and he had no right to return
the money to the liquor house any
more than the present board Of di-
rectors has the right to appropriate
it to their own use or to such other
purposes as they may see ft.''
On motion of Representative Rich
ards the house, by large majority,
voted to eXpunge Representative
Mann's statement from the record.

adopted Mr.. Croft's two constitutions
