FIGURES CANNON
AN EASY winner
Advance dope" of Congress
man Mckinley on Repub-
IiCan Convention.

Springfield, ILL.,. March 25.-Congress-
man William B. Mckinley. manager of
the Cannon forces, today gave out a state
ment of his estimate of the strength of
Speaker Cannon at the Chicago conven-
ton Mr.. Mckinley said:
The campaign has progressed far
enough so that we are warranted in as
sorting that Speaker Cannon will have
not less than 146 votes on the first ballot
at Chicago. Besides the entire fifty-fOur
delegates from Illinois, he will have forty
eight from the south, twelve from New
England. eight scattering from the eastern
states sixteen from the west and eight
in the southwest This, added to the
strength of the favOrite sons of the sew
eral states will constitute a cOnsidera-
BILE ma jOrity of the convention. No can
didate can be nominated on the first or
second ballots. Speaker Cannon Will, on
the second ballot. develop such an in
crease of strength as to make him at
once the most conspicuous figure of all
the other candidates. His active public
career of more than thirty years of con-
sstent service for the Republican party,
the cordial relations existing between the
speaker and the White house. and be-
tween him and all other candidates and
party leaders assure Mr.. Cannon the
greatest personal following among all the
delegations. This places the speaker in
the best strategic position for nomination
and he will be nominated soon after the
second ballot

Springfield. Ills. March 25.-Tomorrow
noon the Republicans of this state viii
he called to order for one of the shortest
planned to begin the proceedings at noon
and adjourn within two hours at the out
side.
The delegates at large will be Senators
shelby NJ. CulIOm and Albert J. Hopkins.
Governor Charles S. Deneen and Mayor
Fred A. Busse of Chicago
The platform will endorse Speaker Can
non for the presidency and favor an 'ad-
iustment'' of the tariff.
The word adjustment is to be used
in place of revision" in the tariff plank
for the reason that its advocates believe
il better expresses the actual desire of
the party at large. 1t is claimed that
when the word revision is used people
generally understand it to mean a re-
duction from the present schedule. The
believers in adjustment declare that
there are some tariff schedules which are
too low and must be raised to the pecu-
MARY advantage of the country without
entailing hardship in any direction. Other
rates which are too high must be low
cred and the balance of rates so arranged
as to cause no reduction Of receipts and
at the same time do away with all Objec-
tionable features in the present tariff
schedules. The recommendation will be
made that the treasury department i'm
mediately prepare list of changes TO be
submitted to congress.
At a caucus held tonight of the county
chairmen of the Republican committee,
eighty-twO counties were represented, out
of 102 in the state and all of them pledged
their organization for Deneen for COVER
nor.

GROWING STRONGER,
Apparently, With AdVane ng AGE.

In 1886 at the age of so years, I col
lapsed from excessive coffee drinking"
writes a man in Missouri. For four
years l shambled about with the aid of
crutches or cane, most of the time I'M
able to dress myself without help.
My feet were greatly swollen, nv
right arm was shrunken and twisted
inward, the fingers of my right hand
were clenched and could not be extend
ed except with great effort and pain.
Nothing seemed to give me more than
temporary relief.
Now. during all this time and for
about thirty years previously, l drank
daily an average of six cups of strong
eoffee-rarely missing a meal.
My wife at last took my case into
her own hands and bought some Pos
tum. She made 1t according to direc-
tions and ! liked il fully as we'll as the
best high-grade coffee.
Improvement set in at once. In
little, and in less than a year | was
very much better, improving rapidly
from day to day. | am now in far bet
ter health than most men of my years,
and apparently growing stronger with
advancing age.
II am busy every day at some kind
OF work and am able to keep up with

APPEAL OF STANDARD OIL
Effort Being Made to Escape Pay
ment of the Fine Imposed
by Judge lands.

Chicago, March 25.-The Standard Oil
company of Indiana today filed in the
United States circuit court of appeals the
brief of the company in its appeal from
the fine of $29, 100000 imposed by Judge
X. NJ. Lands. The contention that the
Elkins law was repealed by the Hepburn
act is omitted from the brief. but with
this exception every allegation made by
the defense both during the trial of the
case before Judge Lands and in the later
endeavor for new trial is repeated. The
principal contentious in the bill are:
That the fine of 29,240O0O is excessive.
That the acts of the defendant should
have been merged as a continuous offense
instead of being resolved into l 1852 of
lenses and that thus fine of $4,000 only
should have been levied
That Judge Lands erred in slimmoning
John d. Rockefeller and other officials
of the Standard OIL company &c New Jer-
sey, in an effort to learn tbs financial
standing of the Indiana corporation and
its relations to the eastern company.

TIE
General Demand

of the Informed of the World has
always been for a simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy OF known
value; a laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable TO the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with it's ex-
cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir OF SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well-Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents
per bottle.

man Regarding States
Rights Cases.
TIMELY AND JUST REBUKE
ANYBODY WHO SAYS OTHER
WISE is AN ANARCHIST.

Washington. March 25.-That there is
no difference between the anarchists who
defy constitutional authority and state
officials who disregard if. is the opinion
credited to Representative jenkins Of
Wisconsin, chairman of the house jul
dietary committee, in an interview pub
lished today.
1.-The decisions of the supreme court
must be upheld. unless we want anarchy
in the land Mr., jenkins is quoted as
saying. and that this absurd talk about
states rights, as commonly and long I'M
deFstood, ought 20 cease"
Referring to the recent decisions of the
supreme court in the Minnesota and
North Carolina railroad cases. Mr.. Jenk-
ms is quoted in part as follows:
Decision Approved.
Both cases meet my unqualified APP
proval, and l think the decisions will
meet with the approval of all good citi-
zens, Democrats and Republicans, north
as well as south. The decisions are TIME
ly and a just rebuke 10 state officials
who have been so active in making trou-
bic between state and nation. | speak as
friend of the state and have never by
my vote allowed rights to be invaded or
their powers limited.
There is absolutely nothing to find
fault about. 1t is not a blow at states
or a blow at states rights.
THE proper tribunal decided the con-
stitutiOnal questions involved. Have con-
ditiOns come TO this-that state officials
are soing to openly defy federal power
properly exercised under and pursuant
to the constitution?
Sees Little Difference.
How can we expect anarchists and
the people at large to respect and obey
the law when state officials openly ana
defiantly disobey it. and advise a disre-
gard of it and talk SPOUT an appeal tC
arms and state pride to oppose constitu-
tional authority. There is no difference
between the action of anarchists ant
those who openly defy constitutional au-
thority. They are lawbreakers, for tbs
constitution is the highest law in the
land and what has been done has beer
pursued strictly according to constitu
tional authority.
This absurd talk about states rights
as commonly and long understood, ought
to cease There is absolutely no danger
TO the states, no intention to deprive
them of any power"
