Senator Gires Reasons for Opposing g
the Racing Bills.
rBy Telegraph TO The Tribune }

Auburn. y. Y. April 16.-In a signed statement
given o,t tonight Senator Benjamin Wilcox tells
bis constituents in Auburn why he voted against
the anti-racetrack gambling bills recently in the
Senate His first reason that in his opinion
the penalty attached too drastic for the offence
of betting Continuing. ne said that the Percy
Gray law has stood on the statute books for thir-
teen years and no Republican ever advocated its
repeal until the present session of the Legislature
lie says. in part.
Il is true that Mr.. Hearst dld advocate its re-
peal. and he is the man originally responsible for
The present agitation. ] opposed these bills on the
further ground that they not Republican meas
lIrcS. that they have been made the subject
Of party action, that they have been advo-
publican candidate IN canvass before the people
WELD in admiration FOR the ability
and integrity Of Governor Hughes. but he, like
MANY other men. is liable TO ma Ike mistakes. as he
did when he forced the Legislature pass the
Hearst recount bill which the Court Of Appeals
Tlrnr1ptIv and unanimously declared unConstftu-
tionaI There many other instances Of similar
mistakes that might be mentioned.
In conclusion ! would say that the constitution
gives no Governor the right determine what
are appropriate laws The determination of what
laws are appropriate is vested in the Legislature
alone.

HOW FROEB VAS NAMED.
Sop to Imsmrgent Who Used Club at
Last Moment.

Honors in the Democratic state organization are
not hard attain in days gone by This is
illustrated in the naming of Charles Froeb, Of
Brooklyn. as one of the delegates t-large. Mr..
Froeb is a wholesale liquor dealer at No IS Tomp-
kins avenue, Brooklyn. and has been associated
prominently with German musical societies for
years. This is the way he happened to be chosen:
William r. Mcclure. of the 9Th Assembly District
the first of the Kings district leaders who
the solicitatior of the Murphy-Coler men. re-
volted against McCarren Mcclure wanted some of
the spoils Of war and made demands on Mr.. Muir
ply prior the meeting Of the state convention.
He told that he would be taken Of
and later informed by Mr.. Murphy that he
could name one of the deIegates-at-large- He
named Mr.. Froeb, Things ran along until about g
O'Clock Wednesday night at Carnegie Hail. with
MCGUIRE telling his friends what nice thing he
had able do for one of his friends.
Why, Froeb is not the slate" said one Of
NcGuire's friends. II just saw a. A. Mclean, the
chairman Of the committee on nominations. and he
has Murphy, who has slated Augustus Schar-
mann OF Williamsburg. for the place. Froeh
is off,
Mcclure made rush for Thomas F. Smith and
Daniel T. CchaIan and asked about Scharmann.
THAT goes" said Secretary Smith; 'Scharmann
goes instead Of Froeb. The names were handed 10
Nj Mclean by the right party
Plight party be hanged" said Mcclure. getting
hot. 4 want you TO say to the boss that Froebs
name goes back on the slate. something IN
McCarren."
There was a hurried conference the Tammauy
men. Mr.. Murphy was seen. Mr.. Mclean vas sent
for and when his delegates at-large list was again
revised the name Of SchaTTnaun was of and that
OF Froeb back again.

FOR CONSTIPATION
A Medicine that Does Not Cost
Anything Unless 1t Cures.

If you suffer from constipation in
any form whatever, acute or chronic,
we will guarantee to supply you medi-
cine that will surely effect a cure if
taken with regularity and according
to directions for reasonable length OF
time Should the medicine fail to
benefit you to your entire satlsfac-
ton, we promise that it will cost you
nothing.
No other remedy can be compared
with ReXall Orderlies for the easy,
pleasant and successful treatment of
constipation. The active medicinal
ingredient of this remedy which is
odorless, tasteless and colorless, is an
entirely new discovery. Combined
with other extremely valuable in
gradients, it forms a preparation
which is Incompatible as a perfect
bowel egulator, intestinal invigorator
and strengthened. Rexall Orderlies
are notable for their agreeableness to
the palate and gentleness Of action.
They do not cause gripping or any dis
agreeable effect or Inconvenience
and may be taken at any time, day or
night.
We particularly recommend Rexali

aged persons because they do not
contain anything that could possibly
iniure the most delicate organism.
They are just as easy to take as candy
and unlike other preparations for a
like purpose they do not create a ha-
bit, but instead they overcome the
cause of habits acquired through the
use of ordinary laXatives, cathartics
and harsh physic, and permanently
remave the cause of constipation or
irregular bowel action.
We want you to try ReXall Order
lies at our risk, We know that there
is nothing that will do you so much
good, and we vii refund your money

as we say they will, They are pre- To-
