When public endorsement is made

licvc it. Read this testimony. Every
backache sufferer, every man, woman
or child with any kidney trouble will
find profit in the reading.
Theodore OFT, Locust Point, Elk
ton, Md, says: ~ cannot praise
Doan's Kidney Pills too highly. Al
ter doctors medicine and everything
else had failed to help me, this remedy
cured me OF serious attack of kidney
trouble. My suffering began five
years ago with dull ache and weak
ness across my back and sharp pains
in my lett kidney. The kidney secre-
tons became Iisordered land, CON
tanned bricidust sediment. Some
times passed gravel and the pain
was 5 intense that | could hardly bear
it. Finally ! was told that an opei a.
ton was necessary, but did not CON

Epilepsy,
Fits

"My son was cured of a very
bad case of epilepsy with DR..
Miles Nervine."
MRS. D. BAKER, Cleveland, 0.
"My little daughter who was
afflicted with St. Vitus' Dance
is now entirely we'll after taking
DR.. Miles Nervine only four
months"
MRS. C. G. BENNETT,
Alma, Mich.
Epilepsy, Fits, St. Vitus'
Dance and Spasms, are all nerv-
Gus diseases. They have been
cured in SO many instances with
DR.. Miles Nervine that it is
reasonable to conclude that it is
almost sure to cure you. With
nervous diseases of a severe
type, persistent use has almost
invariably resulted in complete
cure or lasting benefits, worth
many times the cost of the rem
edy. The best evidence you can
get of its merits is to write to
those who have used it. Get a
bottle from your druggist. Take
1t all according to directions, and
if it does not benefit he will re-
turn your money.

TAFT WILL RUN IN 1912
Belief Of Prominent Newspaper Men
of the Country.


New York, April 2S.-A national po-
htical forecast of the year 1912 was
made by some of the most prominent
newspaper men in the United States
who are now in New York for the an
nual meeting of the Associated Press.
The Western and Middle Western
editors and publishers, with one not
able exception, Colonel Nelson of the
Kansas City Star, declared a belief
tnat President Taft will be the candi-
date of the Republican party again.
Colonel Nelson is unqualifiedly for
Mr. Roosevelt for third term.
The Southern men also express a
preference for Mr.. Roosevelt over
Taft, the most prominent of them,
Clark Howell of the Atlanta Constitu-
tion, even going as far as to say that
the former president, If again a nomi-
nee, will break the solid South from
- to breakfast"
All of them from all sections agree
/ that with Governor Judson Harmon of
Chic eliminated from the Democratic
field the man the Republicans will
have to beat is Mayor Gaynor of New
York. Every one who voiced his SEN
timents for Taft declared that the
best thing the president has done in
Office to win the people back to him
was the appointment of Governc :
Hughes to the supreme bench.

ROOSEVELT SEES
ARMY MANEUvERS
Views Military Operations on the
Field Of vincennes.

Paris, April 2S.-Colonel Roosevelt
saw portion of the garrison of Paris
perform war operations on the field of
Vincennes, outside the gates of that
town.
Accompanied by General Dalstein,
military governor of Paris; American
Ambassador Bacon, M. Jusserand,
French ambassador at Washington,
and Major I. Bentley Mott, military
attache at Paris, he drove in an auto.
mobile to the famous chateau of Vim.
cennes, which was built in the Twelfth
century and is now used as barracks
Entering the keep he was received
with military honors. Here the party,
with the exception of M. Jusserand,
mounted horses and, escorted by a
platoon of lancers, rode out to the ma.
neuvering field, an open space one and
q half miles long, lying between the
chateau and the forest of Vincennes,
where series of evolutions was ex.
ecuted rapidly under service condi.
tions, in order to give Mr.. Roosevelt
an opportunity to observe the tech.
nical methods of the French army.
Maneuvers simulated an attacking
army, consisting of regiment of chas.
seurs-a-pied, regiment of dragons,
two battalions of infantry and bat
terry of artillery, in pursuit of re.
treating army, whose retirement was
being protected by three field bat.
teries, battalion of xouaves and a
battalion of dragons.

Albany, NJ Y, April 2S.-The ques-

case decided by the court of appeals.
Because Miss Henrietta Lee refused
to appear minus skirts in a vaude-
vile sketch with her husband,
Charles p. Morrison, they allege the
contract which they had with Hurtig
& Seaman, managers of Brooklyn
theater, was terminated. They sued
and a jury awarded them $4,S22.
The appellate division affirmed the
judgment, but the court of appeals re-
versed it and granted new trial.

Senator Rayner's Advice to

TALKS ON RAILROAD BILL

Says Republican Prosressives Stand
With Minority on Preliminary skir-
mishes, but Stray Away When Some
Important Point Is to Be Decided.
Opposes Section in Bill Regulating
the Issue of Stocks.
Washington, April 2S.-"Are the in
surgents in earnest or have they just
been flirting and coquetting with us?"
Senator Isidor Rayner of Maryland, in
mock seriousness, asked this question
and others even more pointed in a
speech delivered in the senate on the
administration railroad bill. He said
that the Democrats wanted no more
combinations with the insurgents on
preliminary skirmishes, but that the
recalcitrant Republicans would be well
coined into the Democratic ranks if
they only would enlist and take their
following with them.
Pointing out that on almost all pre-
liminary moves on various measures
before the present congress the in
surgents and the Democrats have
stood together Mr.. Rayner said that
when the final vote is taken upon the
bill itself they seem leisurely to stray
away from u.s.
Now" he said, "the question is.
what do our friends mean? Are they
in earnest, or are they simply flirting
and coquetting with us? Is it mere.
ly temporary engagement, or is it Il
permanent love feast?"
Thinks Provisions Invalid.
Grafton to the provisions relating to
the issuance of stocks and bonds by
railroad corporations and to the finan-
cial organization of such corporations,
which provisions he contended were
no part of the regulation of commerce.
He asserted that congress would
have as much right to lower the sal
aries of the officers of a road or to
decrease the wages of its employees as
| it would have to regulate it's issuance
of stocks and bonds.
There is" he declared, mo decision
of any of the federal tribunals that
ever has reached such point of con-
struction of federal supervision.
There is no textwriter or commen.
tator that l have read who ever has
| advanced the doctrine that a regula.
| tion of commerce carries with it the
right to regulate every act in connec-
| tion with interstate corporations from
the inception of their charter all
| through their organization and through
| every corporate act that they perform
| and unless / hear some other ground
| advanced for this extreme construc
| tion | must beg to offer my dissent

cess at the PoIls-Friends of Taft
Believe Ex-President Would Be
Great Help to Administration.
Washington, April 2S.-Theodore
Roosevelt for the United States SEN
ate as successor to Chauncey M. De-
pew This is the way the political
prophets and wiseacres in Washington
have the situation in New York state
figured out
They arrive at this conclusion from
many different viewpoints, but there
Is apparently consensus of opinion
that this suggestion ogers a solution
to a multitude of problems confront
ing the Republican party, not only in
the Empire state, but in the nation at
large.
In the general discussion of the sit
uation growing out of the appoint
ment of Governor Hughes to the SUI
preme court bench it already had been
agreed that his retirement from poll
tics leaves Colonel Roosevelt as the
probable dictator OF the party in New
York state
The party leaders in Washington
realize, and they believe Mr. Roose-
welt will come to realize the same
thing, that the exi2encies in New
York demand a strong factor in the
race this fall If the Republicans are
to gain success at the polls.
Hope to Retain Control.
With Theodore Roosevelt as a cam
didate for the senate it is predicted
here that the Republican party would
easily retain control of the legislature
and that the Roosevelt personality in
the campaign would bring success to
the entire state ticket
This feature of the situation was
widely discussed, though none was
willing to take the matter up directly
with the president. In view of the
efforts that are being made in som
quarters to array Colonel Roosevelt
against Mr.. Taft it would manifestly
be a delicate thing at this time to
broach the subject to the president or
to attempt to secure an opinion from
him

Editor Pioneer Press:-
 Believing that a word Of commenda uOa would not be out of place, ularly in referenc to Legislation re- latlng to Alaska.
 This leads me to speak Of the fight lu congress over the question of a lshed the dOings Of Congress, partic- Territorial Legislature and home rule for Alaska. What kind Of home rule would 1t be for Alaska, to have a leg. lslatlye Council, a majority of whom are appointed by the President of the United States? They would be men sent here from other states, and whil they would probably be good men in their own states, would very likely be unfit for this country, and totally selves to it's conditions until after they had been here three or four years.
 Alaska wants legislature com posed of Alaskans, elected by the people of Alaska: men who understau the conditions here and who have the  interests of Alaska and her people at unable to understand and adapt them heart. and not men sent here from other states, who know nothing interest in Alaska or her people.
 It is urged by those opposed to a Territorial Legislature, that it would be corrupted by the powerful corpO- rations. f that be a good argument against home rule for Alaska, the whatever about us, and can have no nans argument could be used against having an elective legislature in ever atnts in the Union.
 They seem to forget, that the peO-

no power to remedy the evil if that should be the case with a Legislative council appointed by the President legislature.
 The question seems to be just this. Are the people of Alaska competent to govern themselves? think they are. They are nearly all American citizens, born and raised in the Unit ed States, and that people have dem onstrated the fact that they are com petent to govern themselves, and have become one of the great nations of tn earth.
 All we want is an opportunity to prove by demonstration that we can run Alaska with credit to ourselves and honor to our beloved United States.
