COMPARED WITH GEORGE III.

Washington, March 27-The question whether or not President Roosevelt is an intoierant man after the fashion ol
 King George the Third arose in the house of representatives today. The discussion was founded on Q focal newspaper story covering what pur- ported to be the details of an inter- view yesterday between the president and Representative Diekema of Mich igan in which tAe president was re- ported as humping his desk and be- rating Mir. Diekema for having joined the report of the sub committee on judiciary in censuring Judge Wiltley of the United States court for China.
 Upon the statement of Representa- tive Williams of Mississippi the mi nority leader he proposed to offer a resolution to ascertain if the president had encroached upon the privileges of q committee of congress. Mfr Diekema absOlved the president from the sug gsetion of intolerance made by Mir Williams and said that the president in the conversation. displaced the greatest liberality in receiving an eX- planation of the circumstances leading up to the filing of the report. He de- nied that the president had thumped his desk. but he admitted that he had Sesticulated good deal. Following the incident the house engaged in a desultory debate in the agricultural bill which. however. had not been materially amended when it was laid aside.

the application pending the action of the supreme court on the appeal.
 In the afternoon the so-called "tailings" case was before the court for an extension of the time within which an appeal might be perfected. The application was presented by Attorney Walter Bennett. In this case the far mers of the upper Gila valley had brought action against the Arizona Copper company and other companies to prevent them from dumping their taiiings into the streams tributary to the Gila whence the farmers draw their irrigation water. Judge Nave before whom the case was tried granted an injunction against the mining compan- ies and made the decree effective on May 1 in order to give the defendants time to perfect their appeal and secure hearing before the supreme court.
 It was by curious circumstance that they were prevented from doing so. Near the close of the proceedings of the lower court. the court reporter fell in a fainting fit from which he was restored with great difficulty. The fit was followed by a spell of dullness and when the reporter had recovered he was strangely unable to read his notes and so could not make up a transcript. He wrote MT. Bennett saying that while he could prepare a transcript which would be correct he could not make it from his notes. The extension of time asked for by Mir. Bennett was granted

If, on the other hand it is agreed by the caucus to dis sect the measure on the floor. the bill will be committed to the committee of the whole and discussed under the five minute rule. It is generally con ceded that the action of the senate in refusing to adopt the amendment of fered by Mir. Nelson to provide a fed eral guaranty of national bank de- posits will make it easier to pass the Aldrich bill in the house where little friendliness toward that feature was developed.

He was permitted to make trades for the purpose of bet tering his condition until finally he had moved to this country. secured property at Bisbee which he traded to the appellee Manz for property at ] Douglas. Then the appellants were given a mortgage on the Douglas prop erty. Manz soon wearied Of his trade and sought to recover title to the Douglas property and resisted the ef- forts of the appellee to foreclose on the mortgage. He alleged that there was collision between the man with whom he had traded and the appellants and he was given judgment in the lower court.

The Pure Food Law

Secretary Wilson says, "One of the objects of the law is to inform the consumer of the presence of certain harmful drugs in medicines" The law requires that the amount of chloroform, opium, morphine, and other habit forming drugs be stated on the label of each bottle. The manu- facturers of ,Chamberlain's Cough Remedy have always claimed that their remedy did not contain any of these drugs, and the truth of this claim is now fully proved, as no men tion of them is made on the label. This remedy is not only one of the safest, but one of the best in use for coughs and colds. It's value has been proven beyond question during the many years it has been in general use.
