CAUSE OF

Is to Be LQokedaor IL ., the Con
dition If TIA Bf@d.
Experience of a Baltimore Man
Who Was Badly Ron Down
From Overwork.

Thin blood is the most FREQUENT cause
of debility. AS the supply of blood sent
to the brain does not carry sufficient
nourishment the patient is dull and
drowsy, the nerves become starved and
there are marked nervous symptoms.
As the blood and nerves control diges-
ton the stomach suffers from lack Of
tone and the victim loses weight and
strength.
The treatment for this condition is to
build up the blood and a blood tonic
that also directly strengthens the nerves
is best suited to promote rapid and per-
manent improvement. Such remedy
is Dr.. Williams Pink Pills.
Mr.. W., J. Daily, of No. 1912 South

lnends DR.. Williams Pink Pills to any

Mr.. Nagcl expressed tie opinion that
there is no more effective supporter OF
the state rights doctrine than the
Commonwealth Of Massachusetts, con-
corning which he declared:
"A consistent and constant supporter
of national authority, where that au-
thority is needed, Massachusetts has
been equally persistent in the exercise
of those rights which in the Consti-
tuition of the United States are re-
served TO the states. She has develop
ed her savings institutions and her
educational system; she has made pro-
visions for her census; and through
out has been stalwart defender of
the right to local self government. II
other states made fewer declarations
about states rights. and exercised these
more. there would no doubt be less
occasion to discuss the conflict between
state ard national authority

1t appeared to him that in the com :
raratiNgly new domain of National ac-
tivity the United States government
had the undoubted right to promote the
cause Of foreign trade by an agency to
which it might decide to~looll and that
tue power to authorize the organiZa-
ton OF commercial corporations for
that purpose could not be questioned
or my ground. He closed as follows:
''The United States cannot afford to

states can afford is to yield to proper

 Experience.

Council Bluffs. March 1.-The gov crumcnt continued today to fortify it self with strong evidence against John Mdybray and eighteen alleged associ- atcs at their trial for alleged con- legal use of the mails.
 Colonel Temple. the prosecuting at tOrney. introduced documentary evil dence in the shape of letters exchanged between the defendants and the al- legged victims. but in each instance fol- lowed up the evidence by securing recital from the witnesses of all events leading up tO the loss of large sums of money on fixed sporting events
 The defense made strenuous efforts to keep out of the record q number nf letters taken from Alaybray's ef- fleets when he was arrested in Little Rock. and partially succeeded. Presid- ing Judge McPhersOn decided to wait until tomorrow before making a final ruling. but he indicated that h. would admit the letters.
 There are said to be more than g. 00O of these letters. giving a a'complete record of the transactions of the ''niliionaire's club including the names and residence of victims. and the amounts lost J.

 Secrist pointed out Maybray as one of the ''millionaires" He also pro- duced several letters which he testi- fled he received from Maybray's asso- ciates.
 Secrists testimony was only one of several similar stories told during the day Samuel Sutor of Cass Lake. Minn.. explained the loss of 5000. Alex. Delan of Green Bay. Wis, told of losing s2.500. Zachariah Pierpont of PaVness. Okla. lost 5000 on a fixed" wrestling match.

 These circumstances lead to the conclusion that Governor Hughes and the elder statesman" of the party at Washington had agreed upon an un- limited legislative inquiry and were ready to issue orders against any dis position to shelter Aids.

 Cunningham would not discuss to- day the report from Washington that the Ballinger- Pinchot Investigating committee was considering whether he was liable for perjury. statement, however was made by John ?. Gray, Cunningham's personal counsel, in eX- planation of the alleged discrepancies in the Cunningham affidavits
 Gray said the option by which the Guggcnheim interests claim to hold over one-half of the Cunningham claims is not and never has been valid. It was entered into. he said. by Gun ningham. Miles O. Moore and A E. Campbell at Salt Lake in Jufy. 1907. and was subsequently accepted by the Guggenheims on the understanding that it would be in force if ma jority of the entrymen would agree to con soldate their claims.
