PROHIBITION LAW GETS BLACK EYE

long before some man. some crank,

Speaker Pro Tempore J. Roy vii
liams, friend of the proposition
involved, attempted to stem the tide.
ITO strike out this section is to
cut out the vital portion of the bill"
he said. 1T is not infringing upon
the judiciary. The governor is not
given the power to interpret the
laws. He is merely given power to
enforce them. He will be without
power TO assist in the enforcement
of the prohibitory laws if this is
stricken out. The responsibility lies
upon the goevrnor to see that these
laws are enforced. 1t is almost impos-
sible to reach delinquent county
official without such power lodged
in the governor

Jones of Jefferson got the floor,
and his speech was the next of a
dozen hammering the disputed prop

Undemocratic is Charge
That it was undemocratic to nut
such power in the hands of any one
man, was Jones chief argument He
also thought that the attorney gen

could take all necessary steps to
prosecute delinquent county officials |

All other efforts to amend we're

Argument over this bill took up
an hour OF the session in the fore

be completed. No amendments de-
from the intent of the auth
ors have been successful, despite
the fight of Anthony and Edwards
to cut out the vital section of the
bill.

old Sores
DUE TO DISEASED BLOOD

Every symptom of an old sore sug-
gests diseased blood. The inhamma-
ton, discharge, discolored flesh, and
the fact that local applications have
no permanent effect toward healing
the ulcer, shows that deep down in
the system there is morbid cause for
the sore. But more convincing proof
that bad blood is the cause for these
places is furnished by the fact that
even removing the sore or ulcer by
surgical operation does not cure; they
always return. Nature will heal any
sore if the blood is pure aud healthy,
but until the circulation is cleansed
of all impure matter and supplied
with nourishing and plasmic qualities
the infected condition of flesh is
OBLIGED to remain. S. S. S. heals
Old Sores in a perfectly natural way.
1t goes into the blood, removes the
impurities and morbid matters, adds
nourishing qualities to this vital
fluid, and brings about the very con-

WHEAT ADVANCES

Chicago, April 10.-Because the gov rosy than expected wheat today ran up radily in price. The close, which was almost at the highest point of the session, left the net gain sc to TAO 
 In corn latest figures were Ac to %c improved and for oats there was final advance of ss 10 ssc. Pro- visions at the end of the trading show ed 5c to 15c decline.
 Wheat was nervous from the start
 Dealers generally were looking for decidely bearish statement by the government regarding fall-sown grain, but had to confront first an unfor- seen display of strength in foreign mar kets. When the fact became clear that the rise at Liverpool meant chiefly a feeling of buoyancy due to having es- capped all but a small part of the heavy world shipments, prices here receded quickly from an opening advance. At tention then turned almost wholly 70 what might be contained in the Wash ington report. Forecasts had 1t that the winter crop would be put at 75 per cent of normal or better and suggest yield of nearly 100000 900 bushels. The actual figures on condition, S3.3. were therefore regarded as distinctly in favor of the bulls. Conflicting es- inmates of the amount that might be roaped held back the market for a while, but were thrown aside and prices went up with a rush. The close was unmistakably strong.

COTTON MARKET IS MORE ACTIVE
  Old Crop Months Show New Strength and Prices Advance

New York, April 10-The cotton mar ket was more active today and showed more strength with old crop months market into new high ground for the movement. The close was firm at a net gain of S@22 points.
 The opening was steady at an ad- vance of to 8 points In response to better cables than due, large Liver pool spot sales, bullish Manchester trade advances, talk of rather bet ter spot demand In the south and pre- dctions of increased exports owing to slightly larger estimates for tomor- rows ports. After showing net ad- vance of about S010 points on other crop positions there was a slight re- action as a result of realizing and sell ing for a turn, but the bulls seemed to have moderate supporting orders sent around on every little dip.
 Offerings did not become aggres- sive, however, and during the after noon many of the early sellers seemed to be covering. At any rate the best prices of the day were reached during the late trading when May sold at 14.6Sc and July at 14.62c or Il to f9 points net higher and at the highest level reached since the big break Of last February.
 While still relatively quiet August seemed to be attracting more atten- tion than formerly and was relatively firm. selling 23 points above the clos
 ing figures of Saturday. Southern weather advices while suggesting un- settled conditions were not generally regarded as unfavorable, but there was comparatively little selling of new crop positions and the fall and winter months worked up 9 to 10 points in sympathy with the other crop strength. There was considerable selling of May against purchases of July during the day and the May premium was cut down to about [ points. Part of this was attributed to the switching of a May long line into the summer months and part of 1t to an undong of old straddles, but while there was believed to be come scattered selling of May against possible shipments of the south as yet nothing is heard of any larger amount of cotton heading In this direc- tion.
 Receipts at the ports today were 5O12 bales against S347 last week, and l12,O7S last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans were 1755 bales against 3741 last year, and at Houston 2oS9 bales against 2956 last year.

STOCK MARKET {, x t|SFEATURELESS
Street Seems Determined to Wait for a Cleared
 Situation

New York, April 1o.-stocks jogged along with few changes through a spiritless day in spite of the fact that there were several happenings of favor able import, which at other times might have stimulated trading. The course of the market today emphasized the pro- nounced disposition of the street to do nothing until present uncertainties are cleared up.
 Chief among these uncertainties are the forthcoming decision, or the supreme court in the antitrust cases and as this was the courts decision day. trading virtually stopped after the slight amount of accumulated business had been at tended to at the opening until word came from Washington that tho decisions were not to be announced today.
 Then there was an attempt to bid up prices, but 1t met with so little success 1t was soon abandoned and the market fell off slowly the net result being 0 number of trifing declines.
 The Hill stocks and St. Paul were strong up to the late afternoon. Their strength was the only reflection in the market and the decision announced after the close of business on Saturday in fa- vor of the railroads in the Minnesota rate case Those who have kept in touch with the progress of the case stated their belief today that the principles enunci. ated by the court were of primary inn portance to the railroads and if sustained by the United States supreme court would have marked effect upon the fu- ture course of railroad legislation by states.
 It was said that In several states in the west and south proposed legislation of a kind similar to that enacted in Minnesota was being held in abeyance, while the Minnesota case was being adjudicated. There was some buying of standard railroad stocks on account of the de- sufficient size to counteract the dragging tendency of the market
 Missouri Pacific continued it's down ward course today, dropping nearly two points to the lowest prices since the mia dle of January The weakness of this stock is attributed largely to the pro- longed uncertainty as to the future man. agement of the property.
 The unfavorable showing of the Bank of Germany last week was offset by tc- days report, which indicated a stronger position. Loans and discounts were re- duced by more than sS0,000,000 and gold in hand was increased by s5,500,0OO. In Lon don traders were busy with the settle 1nent, the contange rate for Americans being somewhat stiffer
