Aldermen, After Hot Dis cussion, Order 43 to Equip City With Large Ma
 jority to Spare.
DEBATE BECOMES PERSONAL
Loos, Miller and Jacobs Enter Into Word Duels-Russell :. Introduces Petition to
 Pay Members of
 Board.

After turning down a motion to postpone action until the regular meeting of the board in July hy a vote of Ii to the board of aldermen last night passed tho vote for the adoption of voting machines in this city by the decisive majority of 13 to 5. As passed the vote stands in tho form of an order for the purchase from the United States Standard vot- ing Machine company of forty-thres machines to equip the city with at tho price of s25,s00, which is to be paid off in ten years at s2,5S0 per year. Bonds for this purchase are to be is- sued which the machine company will take at a rate of interest which Is not to exceed four per cent. On the yea and nay vote which was called for on the two votes connected with the order the members of the board lined up as follows:
 On the motion to postpone: Yea. German, Chandler, Mulvey, Cunning ham, Loos, Jacobs and Stanton--7.
 Nay-Kenna. Miller, Townshend. vanacore. Collins, Leonard. Foley. Healy, Marlowe, Belden and Russell. II.
 On the decisive motion to adopt the { machines: H
 Yea-Kenna. Miller, Townshen6. Mulvcy. vanacore, Collins, Leona}d, Foley, Healy. Marow, Belden, Hus- sell and Stanton--13.
 Nay-Berman. Chandler, Cunning. ham, Loos and Jacobs--5.
 New Order Substituted.
 The call of the machines for a sec. ond reading resulted in one of the warmest and most personal discus sions which the present board has had. Alderman Russell opened mat ters by substituting on behalf of the committee of the detailed order draw up by the corporation counsel for the purchase of the machines instead of the general order which was presented for the first reading. This was adopted as an amendment without discussion, but then the fight began. Alderman Jacobs was the most bit- terly opposed member and he fired the first shot He moved first of all as an amendment that the order be referred back to the committee to be reconsidered. Mulvey moved as a second amendment that the action on the bill be laid over until the regular July meeting. Miller at once opposed this and was supported in the oppos- ition by Townshend. The matter went at once to yea and nay vote

HOUSE OF LORDS TO
KILL ] LICENSING Bill
Measure Favored by Commons
Doomed to Defeat.

r London, Nov. 25.-There was a re.
markable gathering of lords in the
residence of Lord Lansdowne, the
leader of the opposition. Two hun
dred members of the upper house as.
sembled to discuss what the house
should do with the licensing bill. The
opposition, to this measure is strong
among the lords of all parties.
Whether to kill the bill summarily or
return it to the commons sweepingly
amended was discussed at length.
By a large majority the meeting de-
cfded in favor of rejecting the bill
summarily when brought up for it's
second reading. AS the Unionists are
in strong majority in the upper
house there will be no difficulty In
throwing out any radical legislation
distasteful to. them. 49,.
The resolution carried was to the
effect that while the Unionists are de-.
sirous of promoting temperance it is
impossible for them to support a
measure that violates the principles
of equity. There were only eight dis
senting votes.

A STEADY DRAIN
Sick Kidneys Weaken the Whole Body
Make You III, Languid
and Depressed.

Sick kidneys weaken the body
through the continual drainage of
life-giving albumen from the blood
into the urine, and the substitu-
ton of poisonous uric acid that
goes broadcast through the system,
sowing seeds of disease. Loss of
albumen causes weakness, languor,
depression. Uric poisoning causes
rheumatic pain, nervousness,
nausea, cricks in the back, gravel
and kidney stones. The proper
treatment is a kidney treatment,
and the best remedy is Doans
Kidney Pills. Great Bemidji
cures prove it.
Mrs. Ella Barrett, living on
Sixth and American Sts., Bemidji,
MIMI, says: eat the time I began
the use of Doan's Kidney Pills, I
was very nervous, and had dull
pains in the small of my back,
accompanied by a dull aching
across my kidneys. These organs
did not seem to act properly and
caused me much discomfort.
decided to try a kidney remedy
and procured Doan's Kidney Pills
at The Owl Drug Store. In a
short time I was feeling a great
deal better, and am now much
stronger. I have no hesitancy in
recommending Doan's Kidney Pills
to other kidney sufferers"

A BOIL IVEEEIL EDITION.

Without intending it, this has
become a boil weevil edition, so
replete are our columns to-day
with articles on this subject.
Two have been pigeonholed for
several weeks previous as too
good for the waste basket, and
the stopping of the Boil. Weevil
Special at ST. Francisville gave
much new matter, all of which
will, we trust, prove helpful and
encouraging to our readers.
1t will be observed that all the
latest information is more hope,
full in tone than previous data
given, and that, though the boil
weeyil danger is not minimized,
the means Of coping with it and
overcoming it are made more
apparent.
This is well. For although
sensible people do not wish to be
blinded to actual facts and condi'
tons, however bad, yet for the
sake of accomplishing something
in the face of great obstacles it
is important that they should
have the assistance that the ex'
Derience of others can give.
What is especially deducible
out of this abundance of advice
and information is that early
planting, good seed and intense
cultivation are indispensable
The good old times of leaving
everything to the niger ant
the mule" are gone, and gone
forever. The negro himself mus
learn new methods Orperish. Al
of this will work for good in tn
end. Wise is the man who &C
cepts these facts and acts upo1
them in the beginning.

AMERICAN SE-MAJES1E.

President Roosevelt has again
overstepped precedentin making
an article in the New York World
on the Panama Canal scandal, the
subject of message to Congress-
He thinks in effect that the refer
ences to Taft and Robinson,
brother and brother-in-laW re-
spectively of the presidents
posse and esse, is not merely
personal libel but an Otfense
against the United States govern
ment.
Ina breath he labels the Worlc
and it's editor-owner, Joseph Pu
liter, unworthy Of credence, ant
in the ext effervesces at the ut
terances Of the metropolitan
journal.
The Worlds reply to the Roose
veltian outburst is as good a.
anything seen since the letters o
Junius in the way Of caustl
comment.
Things have come to prett;
pass when the doctrine Of lese
majestic is sought to be enforce
in nominally Democratic Amer
ca, and it is not likely that tn
Congress will second any Of tn
Presidents attempts in that q

Suspicious.

R. H. Stirling informs US that
he found a live boil weevil, in
perfect health, at his place,
Wakefield P. O., Wednesday
morning, some hours after the
boil weevil special train passed.
He wants to know" if the train
could have dropped it and if that
is the specials business?
It looks suspicious. At least
it is circumstantial evidence.
