Special Correspondent.

Indianapolis, March 25.-Some of the
anti-saloon people are saying that the
prohibitionists are trying to put them
in a hole in the matter of calling To-
cal option election in Marion county
and incidentally in the work of the
league in the entire state. It has al
ways been known that the anti-saloon
people and the prohibitionists have not
pulled together in the effort to wipe
out the liquor traffic, and frequently
this contrariness of opinion shows it.
self. The anti-saloon people are try
ing to get rid of the liquor traffic by
eliminating saloons. The prChibi-
tionists are not satisfied with this plan.
They believe that the manufacture and
sale of intoxicating liquors should be
prohibited absolutely, and that there
should be no temporizing with the traf-

ognizes the liquor traffic in any man.
ner is wrong, and that is why they
have always opposed local option. They
contend that it is wrong to allow peo-
pie of county to have saloons even
though they want them.
Want Election Soon.
The prohibitionists say. however,
that since the local option law is on
the statute books it should be made use
OF to drive out saloons, because when
- S,o ste % h vy0
been wiped out it will then be easy to
enact absolute prohibition. For that
reason they are contending that now is
the time to hold an election in Marion
county. They say there should be no
further delay. But they say they fear
that the Anti-Saloon league is not able
to handle such big affair. They
fear that the league will fail, though
they say that a thoroughly competent
organization could succeed.
Want to Avoid Crap"
But the Anti-Saloon people are OF
the opinion that the prohibitionists are
trying to force them into an election in
Marion county when they know that
the result would be extremely doubt
full, and that the vets would probably
carry the county. In that way the
league would get black eye. they say.
and the prohibitionists would have a
good laugh. But the anti-saloon peo-
pie say they will not be caught in that
trap. and that they will not try to
bring on an election in Marion county
until they feel sure they can win.
This is not new antagonism be-
tween the anti-saloon people and the
prohibitionists. 1t has been on for

derstood He Will Not Dis
penSe Jobs According to
Politicians Wishes.
CONSULT DEMOCRATS
WILL BE HIS POLICY
Chief Executive Explains His
Views on This Subject
When He Made the Appoint
ment of a Judge.

Washington, March 25.-President
Taft is causing the professional south
ern republican politicians and those
who work with them pere in Washing
ton great concern by limitations that
he will select the office holders in the
southern states entirely upon their
qualifications and standing in their
communities. and regardless of their
ability as political manipulators or
their subserviency to northern politi-
clans who have used them.
He had conference with Senator
Smith, of South Carolina. and the ru-
NOR went at once in circulation that
President Taft intends to appoint
democrats in the South. on the recon-
mendation of democratic senators.
This is not entirely true. But it is
true that the professional politicians
will not be permitted to control south
ern appointments and that the presi-
dent is determined that only men fit
for the positions shall be appointed.
This is regarded as a direct blow at
Capers, who has been a dispenser of
patronage in South Carolina and to
followers of Postmaster General
Hitchcock.
Hitchcock Will Acquiesce.
Mr. Hitchcock. if he finds he can
not control appointments. will at least
appear to acQuiesce in whatever &C
ton is taken.
1t was said the president would con-
suit with Senator Tillman regarding
South Carolina offices. Mr.. Taft also
has notified Senator Bailey that his
wishes would be consulted, along with
those Of his colleague. before Texas
appointments were made.
A delegation from one of the south
ern states called upon the president
to make a protest against a candidate
for a place on the bench in one of the
southern districts. To this delegation
Mr.. Taft said that his appointments to
the bench would be based entirely
upon the merit, standing and ability
of the candidate.
He said a man fit to go on the
bench should not have been too close
ly identified with politics and that it
would not make any difference to him
which party he had been affiliated
with, provided he held himself beyond
the reach Of partisan influence in his
judicial work
Southern men are loud in their
praise of the president and declare
that If he adheres to the policy he has
outlined he will do more to abolish
sectional feeling in the South than
any other president

South vacant. three of which Presi-

Uncle Joe So Threatens II
They Absent Themselves
From the House.
CANNON HAS AUTHORITY
IT is NOT BELIEVED THAT THERE
IS GOING TO BE MUcM TIME
WASTED IN DEBATE ON THE
PAYNE BILL.
BY sheIdon s. Cline.

Washington, March 25.-The whip
and spur. regarding which we hear so
much in connection with the passage
of bills through congress, are going to
play their part in speeding the Payne
tariff bill to a vote. but the house man
ayers are not depending solely on these
ancient instruments OF torture in the
effort to comply with President Taft's
demand that the measure be ready for
his signature by June 1. Already the
house is meeting at II o'clock instead
of noon, and night sessions are prob

May Dock Salaries.
Not only that, but Speaker Cannon
threatens to dock the pay OF mem
bers who absent themselves from the
sessions. When this threat was first
put forth good many people regard
ed 1t as a joke, but the speaker has
ample authority to inflict such pun
ishment, and he may even cause men,
bers without leave to be arrested and
brought before the bar of the house.
1t is not likely. however, that such
drastic means will have to be adopted
in order to secure attendance during
consideration OF the tariff bill. The
pressure for early action, not only that
exerted by the president and leaders in
congress but coming from all parts Of
the country. is too great to admit OF
Indifference on the part Of members.
Not Much Debate.
It is not believed great deal Of the

tered when reading Of the bill begins
under the five-minute rule for amend
ment. It is not the purpose OF Chair.
man Payne and the other house leaders
to curtail the opportunities for amend
ment, unless they are offered in such
numbers as to unduly delay the pas
sage Of the bill. In that case it is
probable a special rule will be brought
in providing that final vote on the
measure shall be taken on a certain
day.

Bladder troubles almost always result
from a arrangement of the kidneys and
better health in that organ is obtained
quickest by a proper treatment of the kid

and overcomes that unpleasant necessity
of being compelled to 60 often through

of Swanip-Root, the great kidney remedy
is soon realized. 1t stands the highest be
