ADVICE BEING IGNORED,
TENDERS RESIGNATION
City Attorney of Belmont Heights
Wishes to Retire, Being Dissats-
fled with the Action of the
Trustees

LONG BEACH, Nov. BIS. G. Bar
ker, city attorney for the recently in
corporated city of Belmont Heights,
rendered his resignation today. He is
angered because of the refusal of the
city trustees to follow his advice, par
ticularly in the matter of annexing
territory.
The Belmont trustees recently voted
t. call an election November q on the
proposition to annex a 'whip-lash"
strip. from the Orange county line west
almost to Wilmington. This plan has
met with severe criticism on many
sides and the election probably will
be defeated.
Attorney Barker advised the trustees
against making the move. They paid
no attention, however, to his protest.
Attorney F. A. Knight probably will
succeed Barker.

When the Blood
Goes Wrong
Man Suffers in Many Places Like
a City Whose Sewers Spread
Disease

When the blood of man becomes i'm
pure and filed with poison and decay
it throws off the impurities and leaves
them to force and tester themselves
through the skin, just like city IN
whose sewers foul gases arise and es-
cape up through cellars into houses
bringing contagion and death.
What a city needs is a generous flow
of pure water to carry along and away
the sewage which breeds death and
disease. What the system needs for
the blood that is impure is a purifier
that will stimulate the flow of the
precious fluid, that will check the inn
purities and remove them by the now
of the blood from the system naturally
without irritation infection and pain.
Calcium Sulphide is the strongest
blood purifier known to science and
medicine. What pure, running water
does to the impurities in citys sewer
Calcium Sulphide does for the blood
of man.
Stuart's Calcium Waters give the hui
man body all the strength and vigor or
Calcium Sulphide, in better form than
any other mode of presenting it to the
system. A recent article has stated
that most Calcium Sulphide prepara-
lions contain but 80 per cent of the
strength of this wonderful cleanser, the
other 20 per cent being lost by evapora-
ton, chemical change and decay
Stuarts Calcium Waters contain 9TH
err blood purifiers like Quassia, Golden
Seal and Eucalyptus, each having a
distinct function to perform;. also an
Alternative and laxative to throw off
through the human sewerage system
(the bowels) the waste and poisonous
matter extricated by the blood puri-
fiers.
These little waters are a tremendous
power and act with amazing rapidity
in their work of cleansing the blood
and clearing the skin. Every druggist
carries them in stock; price SOC per

An American woman visiting in Lon
don engaged a cab to convey her to
Euston station, and urged the cabby to
drive fast, as her time was limited.
After proceeding a quarter of mile at
a funeral pace, the passenger warned
the cabby to whip the horse lest she
should lose her train.
He did so, but the speed soon sub
sided to the original pace. Again the
lady demonstrated, saying:
Cant you whip your horse on some
tender part to wake him up bit? I'm
sure I'll be late"

PROGRESS AT PANAMA.

Even a Presidential campaign does
not obscure the great work the coun-
try is doing at Panama. This work is
being conducted by army engineers,
and the help of no contractor has been
accepted. By days work the mountain
wall at Culsbra is being pierced and by
days'work the foundations of the nigh
ty dam at Gatun are being laid. Few
appreciate the immensely of the Gatun
dana dam that is to create a vast
lake on the Atlantic slope OF the 18TH
mus. Obstacles are encountered, but
the army engineers are equal to them,
and the ditch itself will be dug in per-
haps three years and the canal opened
in six or seven. The piling up Of ma
sonry and concrete in the construction
of the Gatun dam and in the control of
tho Chagres river is the chief task.
The work of digging the canal is sim
Pile and easy alongside the construc-
ton of great dams. The Gatun dam is
to be 700 feet long and its foundations
will be deep, but stillftbey will not rest
on rock. This dam and the locks
leading from it are the sources Of anx-
isty at present.
Success at Panama is really based on
the sanitary situation. 9 DR.. Gorgas'
work has rendered the health of the
zone excellent, and this is the secret of
American success in an enterprise that
the French had tailed in.
Secretary Taft returns home confident
of the completion of the acanal at a pc
Rod of not later than seven years. He
brought back, too, an agreement where.
by the republic Of Panama will elect a
new President in July undera fair reg
istration of voters and affair election,
something that South American repub-
lies are not accustomed to enjoy.

The CONVENTIONS NEXT.

In less than three weeks thedelegates
selected by the Republican party will
be assembling at Chicago. About 400
of them will go there in less than two
weeks for the filling of 200 contested
seat is to predetermined by the National
Republican committee before the con-
venrion meets. 1t is the chief duty of
the committee to make up a temporary
roll OF delegates, and the manner in
which il does its work will perhaps de-
termine the course of the conventions
action. It MAY indeed block out a new
programme There is really no other
deeply interested question connected
with the assembling of the Chicago
question. The Philadelphia Inquirer,
a straight-cut Republican newspaper,
says in ~eIation to the contested seats:
sit is, of course, unfortunate that
the Democratic StatesE of the South
should bring their dirty political linen
to Chicago to be washed and aired. 1t
the convention is wise it will put a stop
to his sort OF thing in the future by
apportioning delegates to coming on
ventions upon the basis OF Republican
votes east. The Republican States
would, by this change, increase their
influence in conventions and the South
srn Democratic commonwealths would
nnd their influence cut down to a min
imum."
Tho nonuor cnn uonfinn will hQ We few
or no contested seats to handle. In it
will be seated zoos delegates, as against
S92 delegates in the Chicago convention.
Beth conventions seal two delegates
for each electoral vote, but the Demo-
cratic convention will have Is more
delegates, because six delegates each
will be allowed to the districto OF Column
bia, Hawaii, Porto Rico and the Philip
pines, while the Republican conven-
ton will seat but two delegates from
each of these provinces and Dependent
eies.
The two-thirds rules insdemocratic
conventions is almost as old as the
g~ressional caucus named presidents
down to 1924, and the democrats of
1882 adopted the two-thirds rule. 1t
lapsed tor a while, but in 1914 it was
re-established, and it has helds good
ever since. But it by no means Sc
cures the acceptance by ~theNlconven-
tion of the favorite popular candidate,
because the unit rule comes in when
the democrats of a state in a conven-
ton have instructed their delegates.
Under the unit rule it is possible for
less than two-thirds to control the con-
~yention.
The republicans do not employ the
two thirds rule or the unit rule. A
majority nominates in their conven-
zEions. At Chicago the man who can
command 497 votes will win,and every
delegate at Chicago will act in his in
.dividual capacity and in accordance,
perhaps, with distinct instructions. No
.republiean state conventional attempts
TO instruct district delegates.
