Jacob r. Doyle. living on Washing

up TO four years ago I had been suf-
fering with kidney complaint and back
ache. My back panied me so badly AT
times that / was unable TO make any
quick movement as I would suffer
sharp twinges. Constant duh pains
through my loins kept me awake at
night and would arise In the morn
ing tired and unrefreshed. My kidney
secretions caused me much annoyance
on account of their irregular action. I
saw Doan's Kidney Pills highly recon-
mended for these complaints so I pro-
cured box and began using them ac-
cording to directions. They cured me
and the cure has remained, permanent,
and is apparently as fresh to-day April

WORTH CONSIDERING.

There was ore suggestion in the re-
cent message of President Roosevelt
that is deserving Of more consideration
than 1t probably received. and we re-
print the main part of it. as fol-
lows:
The substantive part Of the anti
trust law should remain as at present
trade or commerce among the several
states or with foreign nations should
continue to be declared Illegal; pro
vided, however that some proper gov
eminent authority (such as the COM
missioner of corporations acting un-
der the secretary OF commerce and
contracts. Probably the best method
of providing for this would he to
enact that any contract, subject to tn e
prohibition contained in the anti
enter. might be filed with the bureau
Of corporations. or other appropriate
executive body. This would provide
publicity Within; say; sixty DAYS Of
tended by order of the department
whenever for any reason 1t did not
give the department sufficient time for
a thorough examination-the executive
the contract, which would then be-
come subject to the provisions of the
antitrust law; II at all in restraint
II no such prohibition was issued the
contract would then only be liable
to attack on the ground that 1t con-
stituted an unreasonable restraint Of
trade Whenever, the period of fling
had passed without any such prohibit
ton. the contracts or combinations
could be disapproved or forbidden only
after notice and hearing with a rea-
sonable provision for summary review
on appeal nv the courts"
What do the business men of the
United States think of submitting all
their contracts and agreements to the
President power to be lodged in
him greater than was ever bestowed
on any President. or on any poten-
tate, for that matter? It will not
do to argue that the President would
not misuse the power thus conferred
on him. for that would be arguing in
the dark. We know that such pow
err would be dangerous in the hands
Of the present executive. and II might
be possible to elect one who would
be even more dangerous than Roose-
velt-not that we think such an event
probable, but it is possible.
Some comments of The Hartford
Conn Times are so pertinent that
We copy them instead of commenting
on the suggestions in our own wav:

There are some hrain-stormers up
in New England. beyond doubt. One
OF the latest stories up there is that.
although Mr.. Bryan will certainly con-
troll the Denver convention, he will not
accept the nomination for hinaeif but
aat the psychological moment will
hand it over to Mr.. Johnson" The
reason assigned in this story for such
a performance by Mr.. Bryan is that
he knows he would be defeated II he
should be candidate. and that a
third defeat would destroy his money
making powers as a lecturer. The
Nebraska Journal published at Mr..
Bryan's home town. though staunch
Republican paper. resents this refiee-
ti6n on Mr.. Bryan's personal eharac-
ter and doesn't know whether "iun-
acy or rnaliciousness is the more pro-
bable source of such rot" The Jour
nal cannot be ignorant of the fact
that anything goes in a political cam
paign and even this improbable story
will find believers.
