his desire 70 look after his personal
business In Sweden, according to his
own statement. twas generally pub
lished in Sweden. however, that he had

which he referred to the political cam
paign in the United States.
The speech was before the Swedish
Singing Societies at New York. Mes

Taft and Mr.. Roosevelt. and just after
Mayor Gaynor had spoken Mr.. Lager,
crantz is quoted as having said. We
have heard from our past President,
from our present President. and to-
night you have heard our future Presi-

ELECTRIFIED MEAT FOR ARMY.
New Curing Process Is to Be Given
Test.

Meat curing by electricity is to be
given a thorough test by commissary Of
ficers, with q view to adoption of the
system for the army. The process Of
curing meat by electricity is to apply an
alternating current to the meat-curing
pickle.
1t is new method successfully tried
on limited scale. In the case of ham 1t
was shown that it was in every way
equal to the highest grades Of ham on
the market, and with less tendency to
harden after cooling.
BY direction of Commissary General
Sharpe the experiment is to be tried on
a larger scale. The meat when treated
is to be shipped to the Philippines. Stand
ing the test in that climate will prove
1, to be much more desirable in every
respect than the product cured in the
regular way.
''Suck a resource would be Of the ut
most Importance to the subsistence de-
partment." says Gen. Sharpe. enabling
it to get properly cured meat In a very
short time. and would also remove many
of the objections about the high curing
of both bacon and ham, which is now
necessary in order to prevent those arti-
cles from spelling In the tropics"

RAILROADS FIGHT LONG
AND SHORT HAUL LAW
Attorneys at Interstate Commerce
Commission Hearing Attack Con-
stitutionality of Clause.

Attacking the constitutional right of
Congress to delegate to the interstate
commerce commission such power as is
contemplated by the ordinary construc-
ton of the long and short haul clause of
the railroad rate law, an intimation was
given to the commission yesterday by the
railroads that they would challenge the
validity of the new law.
a hearing on the subject Of the enforce
n3ent of the clause was held by the COM
mission yesterday. 1t was attended by
approximately 200 railroad officials and
shippers. The chief argument against the
law was made by General Counsel Alfred
P Thorn of the Southern railway, who
contended that for either Congress or the
commission to endeavor to prevent the
proper or legitimate use of property be-
tween two given points was clearly I'M
constitutional.
In response to an inquiry by Commits
sioner Lane. Mr.. Thorn declared. that it
was not within the constitutional COM
potency of Congress to make an absolute
prohibition of higher rate for a shorter
haul. If the enforcement of the long and
short haul provision was placed absolutely
within the discretion of the commission,
said Mr.. Thorn, Congress had delegated
legislative power and, therefore, the act
was unconstitutional
committee acting for the railroads
urged that general authority be given
to the carriers to continue the present adj
the commission should prescribe finally
precisely what the carriers should do re-
specting the clause of the law under con-
sheraton.

How to Get Rid
Of Catarrh.
A Simple, Safe, Reliable Way, and
1t Costs Nothing to Try.

Those who suffer from catarrh
know its miseries. There is no
need of this suffering. You can
get rid of it by a simple, safe, in
expensive, home treatment dis
covered by DIR. Blosser, who, for
over thirty-six years, has been
treating catarrh successfully.
His treatment is unlike any
other. 1t is not spray, douche,
salve, cream or inhaler, but is a
more direct and thorough treat
ment than any of these. 1t cleans
out the head, nose, throat and
lungs SO that you can again
breathe freely and sleep without
that stopped-up feeling that all
catarrh sufferers have. 1t heals
the diseased mucous membranes
and arrests the foul discharge, So
that you will not be constantly
blowing your nose and splitting
and at the same time it does not
poison the system and ruin the
stomach, as internal medicines do.
If you want to test this treat
ment without cost, send your ad-
dress to DR.. ]. w. Blosser, no
Walton street, Atlanta Ga, and
he will send you by return mail
enough of the medicine to satisfy
you that it is all he claims Tor it
as remedy for catarrh, catarrhal
headaches, catarrhal deafness,
asthma. bronchitis, colds and ali
catarrhal complications. He will
also send you free an illustrated
booklet. Write him immediately.
