SHERMAN FOR HOUSE RULES
vice PresIdeRt-Elect says They En-
able Majority 60
Business Promptly.

ALBANY. n. Y, Feb. 2.-vice President
elect James 8. Sherman was a visitor at
the capitol tonight and addressed the senate
briefly. Introduced by Lieutenant Governor
White. Mr.. Sherman said in part:
W do business in Washington In the
house a little different from what we do
in the senate. and from what you do here.
There has been much said. particularly in
the recent past, in reference to the rules
OF the house OF representatives.
I'm my judgment. and l do not pretend
to know all the rules Of all the legislative
bodies OF the world, but insofar as my
study of legislative procedure goes, I be-
lieve the rules of the house Of representa-
tives OF the United States are the best cal
culated to do business Of any code OF rules
adopted by any legislative body in the
world, and the. great distinction between
the rules Of the lower and the higher legis-
latlve body in Washington is this: In the
lower house the rules provide for a ma
jority to do business promptly and in its
own way, whereas in the higher body the
rules make Il possible for a minority to
prevent the doing of business. and in this
practical twentieth century OF ours, when
1t is our wish to go forward. to progress,
It does not seem to me that It is quite fit
ting that the rules Of our legislative bodies
should do Just what the rules of the house
Of representatives do and that Is, to permit
the majority to do business in its own time
and then to hpld that majority to an &C
countabillty to its constituents"

omit the drafting of a new banking Law.
While 1t is true the task Is much larger
than he or any other member Of the legis-
lature imagined when they began, yet the
possibility of getting control Of more
offices and more political ~provender by
creating a banking commission that demo-
Gratis. may fill will be too great an attrac-
tion for the rank and file OF the party and
no matter how difficult the work or how
unfit the party is to carry on, they will
make the attempt and a new banking law
may be regarded as a certainty. This is
especially truo in view of the bills already
started to secure control of new offices.
Mr.. Bryan's idea as expressed at the
secret meeting held at the home OF GOV
ernor Shallenberger was for an Immediate
payment bill with a guaranty fund un-
limited save that the tax for one year
should be 1 per cent of the deposits, and
not greater than 2 per cent in any one
year in case of emergencies. There was
no specified percentage mentioned by Mr.
Bryan, which the fund should gradually
attain.

STANDARD OFFER TO STATE
Convicted OIL Company Ready to
Compromise with
Missouri.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Feb. 2.-Attor-
ney Genetal Major had not decided this
morning whether he would recommend to
ance of the novel proposition which the
Standard Oil company, through It's attor-
neys, filed with that tribunal today. The
proposed procedure is said to be without
precedent and state officers are puzzled
by II.
The suggestions to the court COM
prise 5000 words Of matter, the principal
point being the proposal that in lieu of the
custer decision against the company a new
Missouri corporation be formed to sue
coed to the business OF the Standard OIL
company Of Indiana in this state. The
stock OF the new company. less enough
shares for the qualification Of directors, is
to be issued to two trustees, one named
by the state and the other by the company,
These trustees are to act as officers of the
court and as such vote and control the
stock OF the new company. The stock of
the Waters-Pierc Oil company, now owned
by the Standard Oil company of New Jer-
sey. Is to be turned over to the new COM
pany also.
Nothing is said as to the remission of the
$4,000 in fines levied against the COM
panies and the supposition is that they are
willing to pay these without further con-
troversy. The announced intention of the
company is to preserve the big Sugar Creek
refinery near Kansas City.

DECISION INVOLVING LABELS
Circuit Court Of Appeals Hold Manu-
facturer. Has Right to Use
His own Name.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 2-Holding that
a manufacturer has the right to display
his own name on the articles he produces
without being compelled to qualify the use
OF the name in any way, even should 1t be
similar to that OF some other manufacture
OF the same class of articles. the United
States circuit court of appeals dissolved
today the injunction granted BY Federal
Judge Van Fleet restraining NJ. Anargyros,
an Oakland cigarette manufacturer from
using his nome on box labels unless fol-
lowed by words showing that the enclosed
cigarettes were not manufactured by the
American Tobacco company.
The injunction was granted on the petit
ton of the American Tobacco company
some time ago. It being stated in the pc
titlon that Anargyros. by placing his name
on his cigarettes, made II appear that they
were a we'll known brand put out by the
company. The company's cigarettes were
manufactured originally by s. Anargyros,
no relative of the Oakland dealer, who sold
out to the big tobacco concern.
In rendering its decision the court said
tina IL Misrepresentation were actually be.
ing made in the case 1t was by the Ameri.
can Tobacco company, which, by continu.
ing the use Of s. Anargyro's name on the
boxes, gavo the impression that he wal

actually a product Of the corporation.

Enjoy Your Meals
By Simply Eating A Little Pleasant
Tablet After Each Of Them.
A rAnLnx DIaHsTs A MHAL.

n 01Q4bT0 n a1A4s
When digestiov is perfect the fluids
necessary to this process come naturally
to the aid of the stomach. They are of
right proportion and do their work speed
lily and we'll. When indigestion and dys-
pepsia are prevalent, these same Juices
come slowly IL at all, are weak and in
sufficient or are filled with strong acids
and alkalies.
WI en- such a condition exists each meal
is a hardship upon the digestive organs.
The meal should strengthen the juices,
but on the contrary IL weakens them, so
that man by the very act of eating causes
conditions to arise which of themselves
bring him pain and loathing for the next
meal.
BY eating one OF Stuart's Dyspepsia
you mix the tablet with your
saliva and It goes into your stomach a
strong. vigorous fluid. many times more
powerful than the natural digestive juices.
Tn ese tablets are made up from natural
vegetable and fruit ssences and are COM
posed from Hydrastis. Golden Seal, Lac
tose, Nux. Ascetic Pepsin. Bismuth and
jamaica Ginger. There is the formula
and one grain of IL win digest 5000 grains
of food in any stomach. Beside digestine
the food 1t will give the blood the power
to enrich the digestive fluids SO after a
time nature will take care OF itself
Though you have no stomach trouble one
Of these tablets after each meal is a
powerful assistance to nature and is an
excellent habit to make.
Go to any druggist and ask his opinion
OF Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. We will

FIRST USE OF PANAMA CANAL
Pacific Mail Steamer NaviEates
Waters of New Entrance
just Dredged.

PANAMA. Feb. 2.-The Pacific Mail
steamer Newport. used today for the first
time the new Pacific entrance to the canal,
which has been dredged to a depth Of thir-
ty-five feet. Only a few persons witnessed
the departure OF the boat. which left the
dock and steamed to the right OF Naos
island, ~ploughing through the new canal.
AS the Naos breakwater is not completed,
the Newport had to contend with a strong
current, but 1t kept a straight course, and.
gaily decorated with bunting, sped down
the narrow way which in years 10 come Is
designed to become such a great highway

President-elect Taft was not present when

was no ceremony OF any kind.

fights alone to. save the treasury from the
onslaughts Of the appropriation seeking
members, and because he has made these
fights to save the state from being rushed
back into a big debt. he has won the en-
nifty OF a lot OF members
On the bill a%ppropriatlng $2OO,OOO for a
binding twine plant at tine state p%eniten-
tiary Clark insisted that the bill should
be killed because the expenditure wal not
justified and that frequent legislatures
in the past had investigated the matter
and refused to make favorable action.
But every jumping member who is look-
ing for an appropriation for a state insti-
tuition or for an, agricultural farm or an
experimental station at once Jumped on
Clark with both feet and the bill is on gen.
eral file with a fair prospect Of going
through the house in some shape.
But these members who have institutions
to look after may find in tho long run that
Clark of Richardson has the long pole and
will take care of them later. Should the
500. 900 binding Irvine bill get through the
house over the protest of Clark. he may
as chairman of the finance committee be
compelled to cut that amount out of the
other requests.
But as a matter of fact the bill providing
for the appropriation of 100000 for the
binding Irvine plant as drawn is unconsti-
tutionsl but a little thing like that appears
to have no effect on the house when it
makes its o~nsiaughts on the states strong

HOWARD GETS IN CHARTER BILL
Differs Materially frOmO ne Intro
duced by Tanner.

duced by Tanner.
(From a Staff Correspondent
LINCOLN. Feb. 2.-(Special. )-Jeremiah
Howard introduced in the house this morn
ing his charter bill for South Omaha and
It differs in numerous ways from the char
ter bill introduced by Senator Tanner. The
Howard bill provides that the street rail-
way company shall pave between It's tracks
and also eighteen inches on the outside
and for the double shift for firemen. Con-
trary TO the Tanner charter Howard also
makes q real officer OF his tax commits
sioner.
Since the introduction OF the Tanner
charter Mr.. Howard has received numerous
letters opposing 1t from some influential
citizens OF the Magic City. One letter
stated that the opposition to Howard had
been. circulating the reports that he had
gfgged back on the double shift for the
firemen. when. as a matter of fact. that is
the one thing that the South Omaha states
maH-i s fighting tooth and toe nail for.
Another letter said the Tanner charter
was ten lime worse than the old charter,
and Howard was congratulated for taking
a stand against It.
One letter said an amendment had been
made to the Tanner charter providing that
the mayor and the city council should have
authority to enter into a contract with
the Barrett Electric Light and Power COM
pany land very shortly you will have the
pleasure of seeing Mr.. Barrett in repre-
sentative hall lobbying for that amend
ment." This letter said the same gang
that wants that amendment to the charter
IL the same gang" that fought the issu-
