LEGISLATION FIRST.
Colorado Democrats Are Planning to
Block Senatorial Election.

Denver, Jan. 14.-The Post today
says:
Democratic legislators with pro-
gressive ideas are organizing a flying
wedge for the purpose of blocking the
election of United States senator to
succeed the late Charles J. Hughes,
until certain platform pledges of the
party have been enacted into law
recall, headless ballot, bank guaranty
of deposits. public service registration,
anti-pass and rate making bills.
sixteen members of the Democratic
majority holding out can turn the
trick and it is claimed more than half
the number required have been mus
tered. Effort is being made to secure
the other before balloting for United
States senator begins. Supporters of
Mayor Speer of Denver, and former
Governor Alva Adams. the two lead
ing candidates are naturally frowning
upon the movement.
Another purpose of the combina-
ton is to force senatorial candidates
to declare their position on all big ma
tiOnal questions.

makes the following statement in re-
gard to her case:
Joplin, Mo.
"Dear Doctors:
II have suffered for the past three
years and been under the care of a
doctor most of that time. I have been
treated for rheumatism and a dis
placed bone in the back without any
relief. 1 was not able to do my work
and could scarcely walk across the
house. Our neighbor, Mr.. Stroup. who
was taking treatment from the United
Doctors, advised me to call and see
you. 1 did so on March 23d. and after
an examination 1 was informed that I
was suffering from a stone in the left
Kidney. / Immediately commenced
Treatment. and after 1 had taken the
medicine for four weeks I can truth
fully say that / am perfectly we'll and
do not feel a particle of the trouble
from which 1 suffered so long.
II want you to publish this letter to
let others know you have cured me.
My only regret is that 1 did not know
about you sooner You only charged
me a reasonable fee, but I cannot
place a money value on what you have
done for me. (MISS) IVY PITTS
Il wish to state that I accompanied
nv sister to the doctors office each
week and know that the above state
nnent is entirely correct.

FOR FARMERS
Capped Elbow In Horse.

Frequently horses in lying down
press the foot or the shoe against the
elbow. This in time causes inf1am-
nation and ends in a tumor or shoe
boil. The diseased condition is diff
cult to repair, as there is little flesh
or muscle at the joint of the elbow
where the trouble starts.
Treatment consists Of opening the
boil and allowing the fluid to escape.
In case the swelling is hot and pain
full an application of lead acetate will
prove comtrting and helpful. In pre-
pairing the lotion use two tablespoon
fuls of acetate of lead to a quart of
water There is no objection to in
jecting a little of this into the open
