SHOULD KILL SHAH
THIS IS OPINION OF AGED REVO-
 LUTIONIST.
He Declares That Persian People VIII Never Have ConstitutiOn Under Present Ruler-FOE-
 elgnerH Are Safe.

Odessa, Thursday. October 1.--"The Persian people will never have a con. stitution unless the present Shah is killed and the national party become victorious"
 This Is the opinion of an aged and venerab ble member of the Tabriz Par liament, named Iftikhan- UlAtebba who Is at present in the city, on his way to Constantinople. with a small party of his countrymen for the pur- pose of establishing In the Turkish capital, a permanent Parliament of the revolutionary party in Persia.
 The Persians are nine in number and they will in the future direct the revolutionary operations in Persia from Constantinople. They have been driven out of Tabriz and forced to seek sh elter on foreign soil.
 ''The government forces are getting the worst of 1t at Tabriz." continued If tikhan- Ul-Atebba. Our forces. the nationalists, are gaining the upper hand, and the projected capture of Teheran and the assassination of the Shah. are only a question of time.
 'I have full confidence in the future success Of our revolutionary party. Our present aim is to win over the government troops to our side. The Shahs soldiers already are discontent- ed. because they are not getting their money. Our men are loyal and well paid. We have at present over 5000 good fighters. together with six pieces of artillery and sufficient ann intuition and provisions for some time to come.
 ''We have been almost uniformly successful in our recent engagements and our men to-day are in high spirits over the capture at Tabriz of sufficient quantities of arms and ammunition to equip an army of 30,0O0. This war material was in a government arsenal that fell Into our hands"
 In conclusion Iftlkhan- Ul- -Atebba declared that foreigners in Persia were perfectly safe so far as the revolu- tionary forces are concerned.

 Some Staggering News.
 The writer gets this story as | straight as a string from 6 Democrat to whom 1t was related without any hesitancy: The President asked the priest how Taft stood in his section. The priest replied that the information he had to impart would not be pleas | ant news for MT. Roosevelt and sug- | gested that they had better change the subject. The President, however. in- sisted upon hearing what the Reverend gentleman had to say.
 Well" remarked the priest. that | Nu al rUf Bryan this time The miners and laboring men generally are opposed to Judge Taft and they are going to vote | for Mir. Bryan"
 Yesterday an official of one of the Maryland railroads said to your cor | respondent: "a number of our con | iuctors who have been lifelong Re- l publicans are wearing Bryan buttons | and they are talking Bryan to all the | people they meet. They inform me
 that the sentiment in the state is all | running that way"
 This official himself is 6 Democrat ! Another prominent man of the same I road who is Republican and who | will support Taft admitted that the | Republicans were having a terrible I fight. He thinks the race will be 9 | close one, but will not isten to any argument that Taft can be defeated | The Democratic railroad official also
 said: T am positive Bryan will be elected. Nearly all the railroad men l [ know are against Taft. That is due | to the fact that they have generally turned against Roosevelt. Looks to me as if most of them now positively | hate Roosevelt. and they are opposing | Taft because the latter has been how ling from the stump that if elected he | will carry out the Roosevelt policies. | As between the two, the men of my calling seem to prefer Bryan as re- | buke eo the administration.

It has built me up and restored my strength until now feel twenty years younger. and am able to attend to my work again as usual" Job Jeavons, 1036 Lind Street. Wheeling. ". Va.
 The reason vinol is so successful in such cases is because 1t contains tonic iron and all of the strengthening blood making and bodybuilding ele- ments of cod liver oil, but no oil.
