VETO STATEHOOD MEASURES
President Takes Serious Objection to
Recall Of Judiciary Clause.

Tuesday President Taft sent message
to Congress vetofng the resolution pro-
viding for the admission Of Arizona and
New Mexico into the Union. He said /:
eff / sign this resolution do not see
how I can escape responsibility for the
judicial recall In the Arizona Constitu-
tion, which is destructive of the inde-
pendence Of the Judiciary, and 30 likely
to subject the rights of the individual to
the possibility of q popular majority, and
is therefore injurious to the cause of free
government. Government is for all the
people and not solsy for the majority of
them.
"It Is recognised that a majority Of
the people unrestrained by law, when
aroused and without the SOLDERING effect
of deliberation may do injustice to the
minority. Hence arises the necessity
for Constitution by which the will of
the majority shall be permitted to guide
the course of Government, only under
the controlling checks that experience
has shown to be necessary to secure for
the minority, its share of the benefit to
the whole people,"

SOAK YOURSELF WITH WATER
Prof Hawk Says II il Good Thing
During and After Meals.

When men and horses fall over from
the heat, there appears to be double
point to the consideration of new theory
which favors the drinking Of water In
large quantities with meals. Prof. P. B.
Hawk, physiological chemist of the Uni
versity of Illinois, 10 tho 6rst advocate
of water at meal-time. The relation oi
this to sunstroke is inferred here because
nearly all other medical men discoun-
tenance the use of water at meals, and
again they agree that the principal cause
of sunstroke is an ovsrheated skin, which
is in turn most frequently due to an in
sufficient absorption ofiwtter.
Prof Hawk doesn't consider any Of
the effects of not drinking water, but
simply gives the result of his expert
ments ON water-drinking at meal-time
and between meals. These experiments,
made in the laboratory Of the Univers.
ity of Illinois, have just been made
known, and the result is said to revolu-
tioniss ideas that have obtained longer
than anyone can remember. The rsla-
ton of this new thought to heat pros
tration may be found in the prejudice
most people have against drinking water
while eating, owing to insistent teach.
ing of the delstsrious effect of the habit,
and because it is notable that many
cases of prostration follow the reception
of hearty meal.
''The medical profession" the report
Of Prof. Hawk says, almost unanimously
advise strongly against the drinking OF
large amounts of water at meal-time.
The desirable features following the lib
eral use of water taken at the proper
time are thoroughly appreciated, but
any suggestion as to the taking Of water
in large quantity with meals is strongly
antagonized.
"The principal objection to the copi.
GUS ingestion of the fluid is based on the
supposition that the excess water dilutes
the gastric juice, and thus disturbs to a
marked degree the normal rhythm oi
the digestive functions"
Then he gives his experiment and the
result Of it. The subject was man q
years old. He was placed on normal
and constant diet" for l3 days, analysis
being made of his food before the ex
pertinent began. Water was given spar.
ingly at first, only half q glass being
allowed at each meal-breakfast, 7:30
lunch, noon; and dinner, 6:l5. The
supply was increased with beneficial
effect, until the subject was drinking
three pints of water at each meal and
his usual pint between breakfast and
lunch, between lunch and dinner, and
between dinner and bedtime. This
made 6 quarts of water day.
Every day the subject was weighed
before breakfast, and he gained steadily
in weight and healthy tissue. All hi
physical processes improved. He looked
better and felt better as the days wor,
on, and it was found that the bodily
activities were stimulated so that separa
ton and distribution of food we're i'm
proved and the system kept free of toxi,
poisons. The effect was an increased
storage capacity for nitrogen in the bod!
and "ths protein constituents of th'
diet were more economically utilized
during the period of extra water inges

SOUTH DAKOTA WILL EXHIBIT.

South Dakota will show from $4,000
to 100000 people q big exhibit of her
products at the land show in st. Paul,
December 18th to 23rd.
Governor Vessey has received word
from the officers of the North western
Development League that the business
interests of st. Paul, Minneapolis and
Duluth have agreed to deal whereby
this state will be furnished exhibitspace
without cost at the land show. The
show to be given under the auspices of
the League is the only one in the coun-
try which is not private enterprise and
will be managed in such way as to fur
nish space for official exhibits.
At cost of ten thousand dollars the
business interests of the three Mime.
sofa cities have bought from the league
$500 square feet of preferred space at
the show. Each Of the seven states
will have space of fifty feet long and
ten feet wide for their official exhibit.
The Governor has been asked to con-
fer with officers of the league in this
state and secure the interest of those
necessary to put in an exhibit which
will be credit to the state. Under this
plan no one community or city will
have an advantage over others In the
state. Any city, county or land com.
pany desiring to mako an independent
exhibit will be able to secure limited
amount of space near the state exhibit
on reasonable terms, but it is the desire
of the league officers for this state that
the best possible exhibit be made in the
name of the State as it is from such ex.
hibit that results are to be obtained.
The seven states which are to be thus
represented are Washington, Oregon
Idaho, Montana, North and South Da.
kota and Minnesota. No other states
will have exhibits and Canadian exhib'
its will be barred, the whole idea of the
show being IAN exposition by the seven
states for the benefit of the seven states
alone"
South Dakota officers of the League
are Robert s. Vessey of Pierre and John
d. Dests of Pierre. Inquiries about the
South Dakota exhibit should be address
ed to them while information about the
show and space therein should be ad
dressed to Will A. Campbell, st. Paul
Minn.
