ELEVEN YEARS TEST

Visitors to the exhibition recently
held in Philadelphia to acquaint the
public with the dangers of tuberculosis
and to demonstrate the methods of pre-
v.ntion and the cure of Consumption,
were surprised when Informed at the
Bureau of Information that no state
ment of cures was at hand. In the
past few years immense sums have been
spent and many persons treated by the
eggs, milk and fresh air advocates, yet
curiously, cured cases are rarely found.
That Eckman's Alternative positively
cures tuberculosis Consumption and
stands the test of time is proven by the
following letters:
Philadelphia, Pa, March IS, 1898.
Gentlemen: My son commenced TAX
ing your medicine February I'd, 1898.
Previous to that time my family physi-
clan had given him up to die with Con-

they found it full of Bacilli, and said
there was no hope of his recovery. He

STANDARD OIL pA,RYMAN.
New Process Of Manufacturing Butter
From Petroleum..

New York, July 9.-The Standard
OIL Company has decided to drive the
cow and the dairyman out of bust
ness. Its skilled chemists have dis
covered a process whereby they can
make gilt-edged butter as by-product
of crude petroleum. II reports are
true. plans have been prepared and
contracts soon are to be let for the
erection of a big butter-making plant
as new department of the Standard
OIL works at Bayonne, N. ].
Since the new process was discov.
cred, every precaution possible has
been taken by Standard OIL officials to
prevent the secret leaking out, and it
was only by accident that it became
public. The butter, cream. sweet
milk, buttermilk and cottage cheese
markets soon are to be dominated by
Standard Oil.
None of the officials, chemists or
employees Of the Standard Oil Com
pany will admit that the company
soon was to invade the dairy-product
field.

sion was finished.
Last evening found all the teams of
drivers and mechanics Of the various
cars in bed early to prepare for the
strenuous run today to Kalamazoo.
The last meeting Of the drivers. OBJ
servers and entrants was held and the
last instructions were given by E. L..
Ferguson, secretary of the contest
board, concerning this years run. AS
Is usual at the start Of every Glidden
tour, there is talk of its being the last
to be held, but to Offset this there is
also talk Of the next tour being held
in 1910 from Boston to San Francisco.
Plans for Next Year.
Charles j. Glidden. the donor of the
Glidden trophy, came out from a
meeting of the contest board with the
report that such run had been dis
cussed by the contest board and
while no vote was taken. everyone
present seemed to be In favor of such
a run.
There was little rain last night,
but not enough to seriously interfere
with the start today. Nine o'clock is
the time scheduled that d. H. Lewis,
the pathfinder and confetti man, will
leave Cadillac Square in front of the
Hotel Pontchartrain and following him
will be Chairman Hover In his Pre-
mier pacemaker car. then the other

miles longer and more severe in every
way than any Of its predecessors
Only three Of the l5 days run call fol-
less than $50 miles and the last day
Of the tour demands that the machines
coves 212.8 miles from Salina. Kan,
to Kansas City.
That there will be few, II any, per-
feet scores Is the general prediction OF
the veterans who have made other re.
liability runs, and the more pessimis
tic predict that some of the cars will
not stay in the run as far as Denver
All of the drivers approach the
Western roads with a healthy respect
for their difficulties.
Three different trophies are the
prizes for which the several classes
of machines will contest during the
run. Thirteen touring cars are enter
ed for the Glidden trophy. from which
the run has taken the name by which
tits popularity known. For the power

Of Rhode island.

the party lash, brought instant re.
Spouse. The challenge was accepted
by Senator Coe l. Crawford, of South
Dakota, and before he finished he ad-
vanced into the aisle, shaking his fist
at Senator Aldrich, and throwing such
vigor and emphasis into his denuncta-
ton of the finance chairman that the
senate and the galleries hung in
breathless silence on his words.
Crawford Denounces AIdrich.
Does the senator from Rhode Is-
land dare to say to me-" shouted Craw-
ford. shaking both fists at Aldrich, and
advancing into the center, that be-
cause have voted and acted as my
Judgment and conscience and my
sense of responsibility to my own peo-
pie have dictated, that l am not a
good member or loyal member of my
party?" Senator Crawford had hard
ly ceased speaking when there came
two cries Of "Mr. President" and both
Senator Nelson and Senator Clapp of
Minnesota shouted for recognition
The vice president recognized Senator
Clapp. who added to the remarks of
Senator Crawford as vigorous pro-
test against the bill and denuncia-
Senator Aldrich.
1.-THE criticisms of the senator from
Rhode Island have neither stung, 81
fenced nor entombed the spirit of
protest which we have come here to
register" said Senator Clapp.
And then Senator Nelson secured
the floor, and in voice which scared
to the utmost reach of the senate
chamber, and swept the galleries into
burst of applause. which required all
the righteousness of Vice President
Sherman to stop, the sturdy Morse
man. gave Senator Aldrich his final
drubbing.
1T takes more than Rhode Island
and the senator from Rhode Island to
read the state of Minnesota out of the
Republican party" shouted Senator
Nelson. His arrogant and overbear
ing manner does not scare those of us
whose views on this tariff bill have
been framed from study and investiga
ton.
Minnesota RepublIcanism Lasts.
when the little state of Rhode Is
land has persisted from the map OF
the country the state Of Minnesota
with its 100000 people and its 100000
Republican majority, will be upper
most In the ranks of Republicanisn
and Republican progress"
The passage of the bill was fol
lowed by it's reference to the confer
ence committee. The Republican sen
ators who voted against the measure
were Nelson and Clapp of Minnesota
Crawford of South Dakota, La Toilette
of Wisconsin, Cummins and Dolliver O
Iowa, Beveridge of Indiana. Brown an,
Burkett of Nebraska, and Bristow o
Kansas.
They represented. as Senator Bever
idge said, "A great group of Republl
can states which demand that the con
ference committee shall stand by tn,
reductions, and perfect bill Who'll
the president will sign and which the
'Wo houses can accept as fulfillmea
of the pledges of the party and the
president"
The uncompleted corporation tai
provisions was the first subject of the
days consideration and Senator Dan
