Pure Food or Poor Food?

When so eminent food expert as DR..
Wiley not only approves, but actually
advocates the use of product, you may
be absolutely assured of its purity and
healthfulness. In a recent speech DR..
Wiley commended in strongest terms
the use of Cotton Oil as one of our most
valuable food constituents, stating that
undoubtedly better health would follow
its general use. Cottolene-the perfect
shortening-has been the leading product
in Cotton Oil cooking fats for over a
quarter of a century. You will find the
doctors all with you when you use Cotto-
lene in place of hog fat.

SCORES TAFT FOR FIGHT
ON CANADA PACT CHANGES
Senator Nelson Says Upper Body OF
Congress Has Right to Make
Amendments.

Senator Nelson Of Minnesota attacked
President Taft today before the Senate
finance committee for seeking TO prevent
the Senate from amending the Canadian
reciprocity bill. He declared that the
Constitution made the Senate part Of the
treaty making power of the country and
offered several amendments to the meas
ure.
Senator Nelson's amendments would re-
duce about one-half the existing tariff
rates on most farm products. To put
farm products on the free list. he de-
clared, was lsgislating directly against
the farmer.
President Taft is evading the Consti-
tuition Of the United States he asserted,
when he tries to force the Senate to ac-
cept this agreement as ii was presented.
He Is trifiing with the Senate Of the
United States
Senator Nelson urged the committee to
consider carefully his proposed amend
ments He said the Senate had amended
previous treaties and that there was no
valid reason why 1t should not amend
the Canadian agreement.

entry of the decision of Judge Dickson
freeing George B. Cox from the charges

words. ordered him to leave the room,
Hunts answer being Il refuse
The clash started when attorneys for
Cox and the prosecution presented entries
by which each side sought to have Satur-
days decision recorded according to a
particular Interpretation.
The entry for Cox was that both in
dictments were quashed, that for the
country was that one was quashed,
one holds good and that the prosecutor
has the right to elect which indictment
shall be quashed

This last phase is covered by the writ
Of mandamus issued by the circuit court
which ordered Judge Dickson to put on
an entry permitting the prosecutor to
elect upon which of the indictments he
will proceed. 1t is returnable next Sat
urday.
Without passing on either entry today
