ILLINOIS POWER BILL LOST
House Members by Vote of rs to 81
Defeat the Pet Measure of
Governor.

Springfield, Ill.-Lacking two votes
of the necessary ". the Deneen-John-
son waterway-water power bill was
defeated in the house. The vote was
rs to 81, two short of constitutional
majority.
The taking of the vote on the bill
was attended by exciting scenes.
When the opponents Of the measure
discovered the bill lacked two votes.
they took advantage of their control
of the house organization.
Speaker Adkins refused to recog-
nize any deep waterway leaders. and
amid scenes bordering on riot, he adj
journed the session under the gavel.
The waterway bill was in substan-
TALLY the same shape in which the
senate passed it, except that a refer
endum had been attached providing
for resubmission to the people at the
November election, in 1912.

LAUDS ALDRICH PLAN
TAFT ENDORSES THE NATIONAL
RESERVE ASSOCIATION PLAN.
Asserts Reform In Currency System
Would Benefit Wage Garner
and Farmer.

New York.-President Taft, address
ing the members of the New York
State Bankers association, at ban
quet given by them in his honor at
Manhattan Beach, made an extended
argument for a central bank and gave
his Endorsement to the National Re-
serve association plan proposed by
ex-senator Aldrich, chairman OF the
monetary commission.
He pointed out that it was the
unanimous opinion of authorities that
the existing banking and currency
system of the United States was alb
solutely inadequate to the needs OF
great and growing commercial nation
and that drastic reforms were neces-
sary.
One of the great difficulties of the
present system, he said, was making
the money in circulation correspond
to the actual and conservative needs
of trade. These difficulties and
others, the president said, would be
minimized and done away with were
a central bank established. In all
well-regulated banking and currency
systems of the old world, he said, the
power to control cash reserves and
the issue of notes to be used as cur
rency is to be placed under the con-
troll of a central bank, recognized by
the government.
"The wage Garner" said the presi-
dent, SIS quite as much interested in
+bo Yr00ar 0norotian IF O c0uud cur-
rency and banking system as are the
bankers themselves, and that any
plan which will lead to the adjust
ment of the cash reserves to avoid
the stringencies and exigencies of a
threatened panic will inure chiefly to
the benefit of those interested in the
continuation of our industries, manu-
featuring, ETC., and especially in the
maintenance, use and distribution OF
large wage funds upon which the
workingmen and their families are
dependent.
Similarly, the farmers have a
most intimate interest in the plan
which shall secure for the middleman
at a reasonable rate of interest, funds
with which to move the crops and
with which to pay adequate prices
for that which the farmer has to sell.
The demand for money which arises
every season for crop moving causes
frequent embarrassment and rails
ing of the rates of interest which such
a plan as this would avoid.
"In no other way can the expense
of the disposition of the farmers
crops, which in times past has been
so heavy, be so materially reduced.

FOR PUBLIC HEALTH
SPECIAL MESSAGE ASKS LEGIs-
LATIoN TO STOP FRAUDS.
Urges Action to Prevent Deusion OF
Sick Be Taken by Amendment
of Food Law.

Washington.-Death dealing drugs
of the cure-all variety and their max
ers are severely condemned by Pres
ident Taft
In a message TO congress the presi-
dent scathingly arraigned the manu-
facturers of what he denounced as
dangerous drug frauds" and urged
congress to amend at this session the
pure food and drug law to strengthen
that act in vital points of weakness
recently pointed out by decisions of
the United States Supreme court.
President Taft believes that unless
the law is amended forthwith the
country will again be flooded by sim
furious nostrums" and "cure-alls"
which were common before the pure
food law first was enacted.
The message was transmitted to
both the senate and the house, and it
was said that the latter body probably
would take up the matter at an early
date. Representative Sherley of Ken
lucky already has introduced a Dill
bearing on the subject.
The president, in his message. calls
attention to the provisions of the pure
food and drugs act of June 30, 1906,
designed to prevent the manufacture
and shipment of worthless nostrums
labeled with misstatements of fact as
to their physiological action-misstate-
ments false and misleading even in
the knowledge of those who make
Them" and asserts that the law was
received with general satisfaction and
has been vigorously enforced" more
than 1000 cases having been pre-
pared for criminal prosecution under
it's terms. He continues:
"The Supreme court has held in a
recent decision that the act does not
cover the knowingly false labelling of
nostrums as to curati~e effect or
physiological action, and that inquiry
under this salutary statute does not
by it's terms extend in any case to the
ineff1cicacy of medicine to work the
cures claimed for them on the labels.
Fraudulent misrepresentation of
the curative value of nostrums not
only operate to delude purchasers. but
are a distinct menace to the public
health. There are none so credulous
as sufferers from disease. The need
is urgent for legislation which will
prevent the raising of false hopes OF
speedy cures Of serious ailments by
misstatements of fact as to worthless
mixtures on which the sick will rely
while their diseases progress IN
checked"

RECIPROCITY HAS a CHANCE
Situation in Senate Shifts When Farm
ers' Free List and Wool Bills
Are Reported.

Washington.-Reci will prob
ably win. Another quick shift of the
situation in the senate put the Demo
Gratis firmly back in their original at
titude of favoring the commercial pact
with Canada free of all amend
ments.
The necessities which brought
about the coalition of Democrats and
Republican Insurgents ceased to ex-
list when Senator Penrose, chairman
of the finance committee. though CIV
en- 20 days in which to consider the
farmers free list and wool bills, re-
ported them out with an unfavorable
recommendation, and they took their
place in the senate calendar.
Now with the house bills in posi-
ton where the senate may call them
up for consideration at will, there is
no longer any necessity to offer them
as amendments to reciprocity in order
to get a record vote.

tary of the Illinois Lumber and
Builders Supply Dealers association,

Each individual is indicted on two
counts, the first alleging conspiracy
among the retail dealers to restrain
interstate trade and commerce be-
tween the manufacturer and whole
saler and the consumer, and the Sec
ond charging conspiracy to suppress
and eliminate competition which or
darby should exist between whole
saler and manufacturer and the re-
taller in supplying the consumer.

A Boston restaurant keeper kept a
green turtle on its back in his win
dow and was tried on a charge of cru
city to animals. A Harvard university
professor testified that the turtle was
more nearly related to the birds than
the fishes, but the defense took the
ground that 1t was not an animal, but
a fish, and the judge instructed the
jury to bring in verdict of not
guilty. Whatever intellectual Boston
may hold as to the status of the rep
tiles, there is no good reason why the
laws forbidding cruelty to animals
should not be broad enough to cover
more than warm-blooded animals.

MAN WITHOUT A PAIN.

Hurrah for the man without pain!
IL he is not the salt of the earth, then
the earth must surely remain unsalt-
ed. He feels no inward burning ne
cessity of breaking into newspapers
with constant declarations as to the
badness Of men and things. He is not
full of suppressed resolutions as to the
wickedness of everybody else, says the
Chicago Inter-Ocean. He has no spe-
cial yearning to ascend Chautauqua
platforms and feed full the listening
throngs with all the horrors Of exist
ence. In private life he is the ctt1-
zen who looks after his family, who
is regarded as a good neighbor and
who gains and deserves the respect OF
all those who know him. In the bust
ness world he is the man who does his
work without lot of noise and wasted
motion and thereby earns the graft
tude OF his associates or employers. In
public life he is the man who sees
that the business Of government gets
attended to and leaves to louder states
men the honors Of big headlines and
Chautauqua lectureships. After hear
ing or reading the studied and labori-
GUS complainings of the other variety,
the thought of him is like the murmur
of pleasant waters. 1t cools, refreshes
and strengthens the jaded spirit. 1t
reminds one that everything Is far
from being lost, that the worlds work
is still being efficiently done, that the
republic is safe, and that the sun is
still shining.
