Warm Debate in ConventiOR at Dub-
 lin.
 Dublin, Feb. 10.-The Irish National convention held it's second days ses- sion at the Mansion House today and compared to the stormy scenes of yesterday when the speeches of the minority were shouted down, the pro- ceedings were orderly
 John Dillon, however, drew . hot fire when he opposed a motion to the effect that the Irish language should be among the compulsory subjects of rnatriculatlon at the National Univer- sity. He took the ground that com nuision led to the inference that the people would not study their na- tive tongue unless compelled to do so. The Gaelic Leaguers, however, carried the convention and the motion was approved.
 Other resolutions included thanks to the peopie of America for their gem erosity in supporting the Irish peo- Ole.

The rec port which comes from Mobile states that already a number of citizens there are thoroughly incensed and in aignantly say that the governor. whether 1t be- Governor Conner or any other. has no right to try to throw a damper upon their celebration and intimate that. he will find vigorous protest. should he decide to come down.

 Governor Conner refused to commit himself to The Advertiser yesterday.
 Do you expect to attend the Mardi 1Gras In Mobile this month?'' he was asked. At that moment his secretary came into his office and told him that he was wanted at the telephone.
 T cannot say" he took time to answer. ''Mardi Gras is stiil very far ahead. and I have such a multiplicity of engagements you know, that I hard ly know how stand would have to look over my engagements very care. fully, before I could tell how ! can spend Mardi Gras."

BAD STOMACH PURIFIED

If reports are authentic. peonla as MontRomery who suffer from dyspepsia and other stomach troubles are getting tired Of taking preparations containing pepstns because pensin simply dleests the food artificially. Pepsin relieves, it never cures--the principIt is wrong, the cart is before the horse.
 And remember. pepsin only digests animal food, it has no effect on starchy, food such as potatoes, rice, oatmeal. bread, etc.
 There is just one way to cure dys- pepsia and stomach disorders, trivial or serious, and that is first to cleanse and purify the stomach and bowels, and to tone up and put energy Into the stomach walls so that they will be able to properly mix the food with the na- tural digestive juices of the stomach.

The Real Protection,

When a panic hit the country about
two years ago the union work men in
the glassmaking industry accepted a
reduction in wages approximatinG 80
per cent. Now that prosperity has re-
turned" these same employees asked
for a restoration of 20 per cent of the
so per cent reduction. After a three
weeks strike an per cent increase
was granted. The new tariff law gives
the manufacturers ample protection"
in order to enable them to pay good
wages to their employees While ninety
nine out of every hundred of the glass
workers favor a high protective tariff.
the fact will now probably dawn on
them that they have only been able to
demand a high wage scale by reason
Of having thorough union organiza-
ton.

well stand on his record, especially
on the tariff question. There are, of
course, good many stand patters in
Indiana. but their number is small as
compared with the great body of the
people that wants the tariff revised
downward.
So Senator Beveridge is deeply in
terested in the outcome of the next
state election, and the party will be
interested with him. If the party
loses the state next year he will go
down with it, and the state will be
democratic for years. If the republi-
cans carry the state they will be able
to hold it for years.
One of the most important features
of the situation is the fact that at
the next S. ssion of the Legislature
many important things are to be done.
In the first place there will be United
States senator to elect. Beveridge
will be the only republican candidate.
No other name is heard in that con.
ueCllOI. Inc WnOIe party IS lOr 1111l.
OF Great Importance.
Then there is to be legislative re
appOrtionment of the state. This could
not be done last winter because the
republicans controlled the senate. and
the house was in the hands of the
democrats, and an apportionment can
only be made by the two houses act
ing together. This will be of the
greatest importance, because the par
ty that controls the legislature next
year will be able to SO divide up the
state into legislative districts as to
make it impossible for the other side
to get control of the legislature for
another ten years. This is prize for
which both parties will strive, and it
will be the incentive for them to put
forth their strongest efforts to carry
the legislature next year.
Then it is almost certain that the
next legislature will also have to make
congressional Serrymander of the
state. The districts will be made over
and rearranged, and the party in pow
er at the time in the legislature will
have an opportunity to make up the
districts in such a manner as to make
sure of carrying most of them.

LABOR IN POLITICS.
Waseworkers to Form Nucleus of New
Party In PENNSYLVANIA,

Waseworkers to Form Nucleus of New
Party In Pennsylvania.
Organized labor will be the nucleus
of the new party which the Finn
forces propose to form in Pennsylvania
to combat with the Republican organ
ization. This statement was made the
other day by Alexander p. Moore, edi-
tor of the Pittsburg Leader which
newspaper is the reputed mouthpiece
Of ex-senator Finn. In an interview
outlining the plan Mr.. Moore said:
"A formidable organization is being
formed to make a fight within the Re-
publican party. and during the next
year Pennsylvania will witness a rev.
olution in politics. This organiza ton
does not include so called politicians.
1t is the wage earners OF the state
who are falling in line. men who are
not known as political workers. 1t
does not include labor leaders. 1t Is
composed of the intelligent railroad
men. of whom there are 5000 voters
in Allegheny county; of iron and steel
workers and other artisans who are
dissatisfied with the action Of their
present representatives. They are go
ing to demand legislation for the wage
Garner. such as the employers liability
bill and acts that will prove somewhat
beneficial to the laboring classes. Rad
ical legislation will not be demanded.
LAS yet the organization is not COM
pleted. but every day new members
are affiliating themselves with the
movement. We count on the support
OF the state srangers and railroad
men all over the state. We want men
who will demand an investigation of
the abuses of the iron and steel work
ers at the hands Of the state and ma
tional governments"

A short time ago when the employ
ees Of the Westinghouse works, near
Pittsburg. were paid many envelopes
were found to contain from 500 to
1000 more than the amount due ac-
cording to the timekeepers' records.
The recipients of this extra money,
about $4,000 all told. were salaried
men in the employ of the company
who suffered loss of time and earnings
when the company encountered hard
times in 1907 and had serious slump.
More men will be remembered in like
manner during the immediate future.
An official of the company stated that
the firm did not deem it necessary to
publish the names of the employees
being benefited and added:
The company desires to show its APP
probation of the men. They lost mon
ey through no fault of their own or
ours. The plant is large and has been
working double time for some time.
1t is only fair that the men who stuck
to the company should benefit in the
