Graft Charges Make Lilley Unpopular

dove mott out of season, and Theodore
Burton, the Cleveland student, had

Mr.. Lilley secured the floor and start
ed in with the usual formal, Mr..
Chairman" the couple of hundred Of
Republicans and Democrats, who had
listened with the greatest interest to
Hobson and Burton, rose almost as IL
by preconcertion, and filed off to their
cloakrooms. When the Connecticut
submarinist had been talking for five
minutes or so there wasn't corporal's
guard in attendance on the floor, either
of his own party or of the opposition,
and when he concluded his remarks
and took his seat. the 16 members
who, by actual count, remained in the
chamber, didn't give him even a cour-
tesy handicap.
In the congressional directory Mr..
Lilley's full name is set down as
George Leavens Lilley." But this
isn't SO. 1t can't be true. George
doesn't leaven Lilley or anything
about him. His dough has never risen.

Nature and woman's work COM
bined have produced the grandest
remedy for woman's ills that the
world has ever known.
In the good old-fashioned days of
our grandmothers they relied upon
the roots and herbs of the field to
cure disease and mitigate suffering.
The Indians on our Western
Plains to-day can produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
diseases that battle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years In
the study of drugs.
From the roots and herbs of the
field Lydia E. Pinkham more than
thirty years ago gave to the women
of the world a remedy for their Pc
culiar ills, more potent and effica-
cious than any combination of drugs.
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is now recognized as the
standard remedy for woman's ills.
Mrs. Bertha Muff, of 515 NC. ST.,
Louisiana, Mo-, writes:
Complete restoration to health
means SO much to me that for the sake
OF other suffering women am willing
to make my troubles public.
"For twelve years l had been suffer-
ing with the worst forms of female ills.
During that time 1 had eleven different
physicians without help. No tongue
can tell what l suffered, and at times /
could hardly walk. About two years
ago wrote Mrs. Pinkham for advice.
l followed it, and can truly say that
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound and Mrs. Pinkham's advice re-
stored health and strength. 1t is
worth mountains of gold to suffering
women"
What Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound did for Mrs. Muff,
it will do for other suffering women.

PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN OF 1872,

1873
In the campaign OF 1928, there
we're still practically no political dif-
terences among the voters OF the ma
ZION, as regarded party lines. II was
again a campaign OF men rather than
principles.
The chief feature involved and the
main issue put to the voters for set
tlement was in connection with the
selection OF John Quincy Adams, four
years before by the house Of repre-
sontatives, in the face OF a larger
popular majority for Andrew Jackson.
II Will be remembered that because of
the number of candidates for presi.
dent in 1894 no candidate received
the necessary majority, and under the
constitution the choice iell to the
house Of Representatives. Under the
influence Of Speaker Henry Clay, the
house rejected Jackson's and chose
Adams, despite the fact that Jackson
not only led in the electoral college
on the first count, but also despite
the fact that Jackson led in popular
votes at the polls.
Adams had made Henry Clay his
secretary of state, and much bitter
ness was aroused because of the
charge that Clay had thrown his
support in the house OF representa-
tives to Adams as part of a bargain,
N which he was to gain the port
folio or Wate as his reward. 10th
Clay and Adams Indignantly deriied
any such deal, but Il was inentable
that the result of.stf-h "a Situation
should become the chief factor in the
campaisnsof is2sEs12sE7 usSsn
Furthermore, Adams administration
was moi a popular success although
undoubtedly the unpopularity was
largely due to the activity of jack
sons friends, who openly charged
he had been cheated out of the presi-
dency in 1928 really began with
Jackson's defeat in 1924, and the four
years OF Adams term were one long
drawn-out contest upon the part of
his opponents to discredit the admin
istration and destroy hi, prospects for
reelection. AS early as October,
1925 the Tennessee state legislature
had renominated Jackson by accla-
nation. In national congress close
organization OF Jackson's friends
was formed, and their activity in
his behalf assumed character cal
culated to create the impression that
the administration was composed OF
raseals and that the government was
reeking with corruption.
Under such circumstances It was
but natural that high-minded gen.
tleman and a dignified statesman,
such as John Quincy Adams was.
would absolutely refuse To enter into
a scramble for a second term. 'If,"
said Adams, "the people wish me to
continue president, shall not refuse
the office, but ! ask nothing from
any man or any party of men,"
With this conception of his duty it
was impossible for Adams to organ
lze large and enthusiastic follow
ing. There were no well-defined
differences In the policial and eco
nomic policies OF the two candidates.
