FARMERS FIGHT
MARKET BILL
Oppose Payment of $40 Year.
Iy for Street Market
Privilege

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL
DOVER, March 19.-The curbstone
market people whose faces are familiar
to almost every Wilmington house
holder. had their day in the Legisla-
ture yesterday afternoon and were
heard in committee Of the whole in the
Senate chamber, Mr.. Sparks presiding.
Hervey Walker, former State master
Of the Patrons of Husbandry; Mrs.
Sarah Simon, who has provided good
things to eat from her farm near VIII
mington for years; and William II. Nc
Coy another producing farmer, were
the speakers.
Mr.. Walker contended against the
increase Of the license to farmers from
$3.50 to $40, and the increase of the
day license for one day of from fifteen
to fifty cents. He contended that the
farmer ought to be encouraged TO come
to the markets because he brought to
the people of great city, products
that were absolutely pure and fresh
The increased price would turn some
away and might be a serious blow to
Wilmington's splendid market. Mrs.
Simon paid a compliment to City So
lictor Townsend but contended that he
would not always be in Office and other
people would come in to administer the
laws.
City Solicitor Townsend replied to a
charge that it was increased to favor
hucksters as against farmers, and he
declared that the city had a right to
regulate and receive revenue from this
market which was an opposition to the
licensed stores. and that while the city
wanted the farmers to attend, il did
not care who took advantage of the
opportunity to serve the people so long
as they were served with produce that
was fresh. The farmers admitted that
the law at present is violated but
claimed that this was "up to the city"

HOUSE DOES SOME BUSINESS
Bill for Taking the Thirteenth Census
Which Was Vetoed by Roose.
Welt, Discussed.

Washington, Mar. 19.-The first
piece of legislation to be acted upon by
the special session was the bill provid
ing for the taking of the thirteenth
census which was passed. In its pres
ent form the measure gives to the
civil service commission Jurisdiction
over appointments and provides for the
printing of the reports by the govern
ment printing Office. As enacted al
the last session the bill stripped the
civil service commission of such au
thority, and there was provision al
lowing some Of the printing to be done
by private firms, because of which
President Roosevelt vetoed II. A
further amendment was made where
by appointments are to be appor
toned pro rata among the states.
The tariff bill was officially reported
to the house from the committee on
ways and means and is now ready for
consideration.

Roosevelt's neighbors Of Nassau coun
ty, New York, a delegation of 25C
prominent men, Republicans and Dem
ocrats, whom he had planned to re
ceive at the White House on March 3
but who failed on account OF the storm
to reach Washington in time. To
them the former president, from the
veranda of his home, made his last
public utterances prior to his depart
ure for Africa.
His remarks were mainly OF appre
riation of the visit, but he assured
them that he intends to disprove the
gloomy forebodings of Prof. Starr, who
declared that Mr.. Roosevelt will moi
come out Of Africa alive If he follows
the itinerary he has mapped out. He
promised those present, II he proved
be is right, that in year and a quar-
ter they would celebrate together
From this remark it appears that Mr.
Roosevelt will be absent from the
United States about Is months.

VETOES ANOTHER BILL
GOVERNOR SAYS DoNsoN ACT Is
OF FAULTY CONSTRUCTION.
TWO BILLS OF SAME NATURE
AS Result Of Veto the Law Of 1906 Il
Still in Effect and Hospital Levy
Remains at One Mill.

Columbus, o., Mar. 19.-Gov. Har
mon again exercised his right to veto
yesterday when he refused to give ap
proval to the bills of Representative
Donson Of Montgomery county, per
mitting city councils to levy tax o.
not to exceed two mills for the mainte
nance of public free hospitals.
Faulty Construction.
The vetoing of the bill was not be
cause of official displeasure because Of
its provisions, but because of faulty
construction. In 1902 the legislature
passed law permitting councils tc
levy a tax of one mill for mainte
nance of free hospitals. In 1906 this
was repealed and a new law passed
so as to enable cities to aid hospitals
which we're in part free.
In the Donson bill. an attempt was
made to amend the criminal section
which by the action of 1906, had al
ready been repealed, but no refer
ence was made to the act of 1906. AS
its provisions are contrary to the Don
son measure. the result, IL the latter
had not been vetoed, would have been
two laws upon the statute books, each
containing different provisions. End
less confusion would have been the
outcome AS a result Of the veto the
law of 1906 is still in effect and the
hospital levy remains at one mill.

Watching A Stomach

Was the Means Whereby
Science Made Possible the
Cure Of Dyspepsia.

Tho Abbe Spallanzani was the
first scientist to study systematically
the chemical powers Of the gastric
Juice, but 1t was by the careful and
convincing experiments of Beaumont
that the foundation OF our exact
knowledge of ITS composition and
action was laad.
Beaumont was an army surgeon, To-
Gated at an obscure military post in
Michigan, while It was yet terri
tory, and was called upon to treat a
gun shot wound OF the stomach in a
Canadian oyageur-Alexis st. Mar
tin.i when the wound healed per-
manent opening was left by means
Of which food could be placed in the
stomach and gastric Juice taken from
It.
Beaumont made scientific expert
ments with his crude means and
wrote book, (which today is recog-
n6zed among the classics Of physiol-
ogy.
Beaumont blazed the way for other
scientists 80 that today medicine
knows what the stomach does with
food and what food does to the
stomach.
Science also knows what the gas
trio juices are and how TO make them
best for the system.
Sttart's Dyspepsia Tablets, thanks

His Business Ability.

In the Adirondacks lives a man toe

business ability. One winter when he
was sitting around smoking his family
came so near starvation that some OF

help him, took up collection and
bought for the suffering family a bar,
rel of -four a barrel of pork and a
load OF wood. They were not consid,
crate enough to cut the wood, but the

He hired some OF the neighbors who
had not contributed to his donation to
cut the wood and paid them with half
the pork and half the r.--Llppin'

made by the Voters league of Pitts

contempt of court without bail Klein
through his counsel, refused absolute
~ to testify before the grand jury ant
was quickly brought before Judge Da
Wis. A repetition to the court of hii
refusal to testify caused his imme
diate incarceration in Jail and a sever,
reprimand. His counsel alleged tha
he had already been convicted and haC
been indicted four times. They sale
any evidence given before the grand
jury could be used against him and fol
this reason opposed District Attorney
Blakeley's effort to have Klein ques
toned.
