PROTEST ON LINCOLN'S DAY
Labor Organizations viii Observe the Great
Commoner's Birthday

Mass meetings to protest against the
alleged invasion of constitutional rights
of workingmen by the courts are to be
held in every city and town in the
country on Lincoln's birthday. The
movement was started in Chicago by
the Federation of Labor.
Hot resolutions from a number Of
unions bearing on the Jail sentences
imposed on Gompers, Mitchell and
Morrison stirred the delegates. Speak
ers on the floor likened Judge Wright
to Pontius Plate and declared the inn
prisonment of Gompers and his asso-
ciates would as surely bring about re-
dres for the workers as did the cruel
fixion of Christ establish Christianity.

Buttermilk and the Complexion

Buttermilk is often advised because
of its good effect on the complexion,
although its acidity sometimes causes a
fine rash that is most disagreeable. 1t
should be tried with caution as an out
ward application, for it does not often
agree with delicate skin. But even
those who find that, applied externally,
it does not agree with the skin, will
usually find that it agrees and benefits
if taken as drink between meals. 1t
should be drunk slowly.
If the skin burns at first after this
treatment do not be discouraged, but
keep up the treatment and the good
effects will soon be noticeable.
Plenty of water should be drunk be-
tween meals, and on arising and going
to bed. Two or three glasses of water
are not bit too much for the average
person the first thing in the morning
and the last thing at night.
A simple diet list to follow with this
treatment that will prove of benefit to
a muddy or poor complexion is to eat
but little meat, and that should be the
best. Eat plenty of salads with good
dressings of pure olive oil, and eat a
great deal of we'll cooked rice. Do not
drink wine, tea or coffee, and do not
eat cake, pies or pickles.

Raised Buckwheat Cakes-To four
cupfuls of buckwheat -four add one cup
full of cornmeal and teaspoonful of
salt, two tablespoonful of that mo-
lasses, half a cake of yeast dissolved,
and warm water enough to make thin
batter. After beating it thoroughly set
in a warm place over night. Sometimes
the batter has the least sour taste in
the morning, which can be remedied
by the adding of pinch of soda dis
solved in hot water.
Cornmeal Cakes-Four cupfuls of
milk, teaspoonful of salt, half a yeast
cake and -four for a batter should be
put together over night and left to rise.
In the morning a tablespoonful Of butter
melted and two eggs should be added
to it. For some reason these are some
times called flannel cakes'-perhaps
because they are warming in their
effect.
Bread and Milk Cakes-Two cupfuls
Of stale bread crumbs worked smooth
with four cupfuls Of milk, tablespoon
of melted butter, three eggs, tea
spoonful of salt, and just enough -four
to bind the mixture. More milk can
be added if the batter is too thick.

ing and currency, today addressed an
open letter to Senator Nelson W. Al

him to a joint debate in one or more

Fowler writes that he is opposed TO

BANK OF ENGLAND
RAISES DISCOUNT
Increase of Rate Attracts the
Attention of the Entire
Financial World
Loans to New York and De-
crease of Exports Among
the Reasons Given

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-The Bank of
of the whole financial world in an un-
usual degree during the last week with
its third successive advance in its Of
fetal discount rate in two weeks, dou-
bling the rate in that period. Ominous
intimations come from the English
money center at the same time that ad-
ditional protective measures will be
resorted to. If necessary, to avert fur
ther inroads on London's banking re-
sources
Coming in period of assurances of
the ample resources of the money mar
a wide miscalculation of the situation.
On what may be the elements in that
miscalculation opinions differ, but there
are certain OF the factors in the prob
lem which are clear. One of these is
the fact of extensive American borrow
ings in the London money market.
Critics in London allege that an un-
bridled speculation in the New York
stock market is primarily responsible
for the condition.
Borrowing from foreign money mar
kets through the summer is a usual
proceeding on the part of New York.
One of the principal elements in the
miscalculation of the autumn money
market undoubtedly lies In the abnor-
NAL state of the country's foreign
trade. Not only have It's imports
enormously increased, but exports have
decreased. The discrepancy here shown
is sufficient in itself to account for
much of the scarcity of exchange to
provide remittances abroad. Another
element is the delay In the Issuance
of new bonds by the great corpora
tions, for which important foreign sub
scriptions were expected. which would
serve to take UP part of the maturing
foreign Indebtedness of more tempo
rary nature.
The action of the stock market has
shown the contest going on against
the unfayorable influence of the money
situation. The brilliant business out
look encourages the obstinate holdings
of stocks, even while the narrowing
money resources reduce the demand.
The rapid rise in foreign exchange
rates last week showed plainly, how
ever, that foreign lenders of money
here were insistent upon repayment of
maturing obligations. The movement
of the interior exchanges meanwhile
showed that the demand for currency
was not yet justified.

TAFT TO NAME DAWSON
AS CRANES SUCCESSOR
Will Reward West Virginian
for Saving Him Delegation
fSeeciaL Dispatch 70. The Canl


WHEELING, W. Va, Oct 24.-Ac-
cording TO. advices received here today
from washington, former Governor
William N. o. Dawson of this state will
be appointed by President Taft as the
successor to Charles Crane of Chicago,
who recently resigned as minister to
China.
The appointment of former Governor
Dawson would not come as a surprise
TO his friends as he and the president
are steadfast friends. When Taft was
q candidate for the nomination both
United States Senators Nathan B. Scott
and Stephen B. Elkins made every eff
fort to overthrow the states delegation
and have them support Fairbanks or
Cortelyou.
This was during Dawson's regime
and he knew what the senators were
trying 90 do, and by vigilant work
turned the states vote over to Taft.
n All the Taft adherents all over the
country We're surprised when the state
delegates sent in their votes at Chi
cago ia his lavor. and the ministry to
China is expected to be Dawson's re-
ward for his great work.
Owing TO their antagonism the presi-
dent has turned the senators down on
many appointments and the congress-
men are given preference.

Texas Senators Find Conditions

HOUSTON, Tex. Oct 24.-According
TO. the testimony of convicts before
the senatorial committee on investiga-
tion at the penitentiary farms and
camps in Texas, deplorable conditions
prevail in several camps, while in
others the opposite is true.
In one of the farms, according to the
evidence of those questioned, not only
is sanitation POOR but those i'm
prisoned are cruelty treated.
At the ignite mine at Calvert, the
committee found most astounding con-
ditions, it is stated. And farms have
been found with i'll kept bunkhouses
and no segregation for those i'll. The
food has been complained of in some
instances, and il is said that the cloth
ing is foul from the absence of wash
ing and lack of facilities
on the whole "intolerable cordi-
tions'' have been recorded upon the
minutes of the investigating com
mittee.
