What Would Suppress the Saloons.

A genuine revival of pure religion
and undefiled in all the churches, in
the hearts and lives of all church mem
bers, would be the best possible means
of suppressing the saloon, because it
would speedily remove many Of the
causes of drunkenness. Behind the
saloon is apathy, neglect-a lack of
the earnest and loving spirit which
goes out to relieve distress and win
the straying. Let us labor as earnestly
as We ought to purify the evil atmos-
phere in which the saloon flourishes,
and the saloon itself will soon disap
pear.-Cumberland Presbyterian.

BIRMINGHAM Citizen SWEARS
TO REMARKABLE STATEMENT

I want to tell you what DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root did for my wife. She was
troubled with terrible pains in her back
and they were such that it deprived her
of many nights sleep. There was thick
red sediment in her urine like brick dust.
The passage of the urine was very annoy
ing, being of a burning sensation and the
complication was making her very thin
and weak. The medicine which the doc
tor gave her did not seem to help her
and she was finally persuaded to try DR..
kilmer's Swamp Root. l purchased one
bottle of the large size for her and it helped
her greatly. After she had taken three
bottles she did not have any more trouble
with her kidneys. 1t has been seven
years since she took Swamp-Root and she
is now well and healthy At the time Of
her kidney trouble, she weighed 100 pounds,
and she now weighs 1S5. My wife is SO
years of age and cheerfully recommends
DR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root to her friends
and feels very thankful that she found 9
remedy, with such wonderful merit.

WHAT SENATOR STONE
 INTENDED ID PROVE RECIPROCITY AT LEAST WOULD
 BE HARMLESS. Did Not Say 1t Would Reduce Cost
 of Living.

Washington, D. C., May In a three hours speech Senator Stone of Missouri, in the senate today de- nOunced what he regarded as an un- just propaganda to defeat the Cana dian reciprocity bill. An attempt, he said, was being made to alarm the American people by painting the ruin that would follow the free importa tion of Canadian goods, the product of cheap labor"
 The contention was untrue, he said. and he submitted statistics to show that both labor and livestock were higher across the border.
 Senator Gallinger asserted that the Missouri senator had proved conclu- sively that there would not be a re- duction of the cost of living which it had been contended that reciprOc- ity would bring. Mr. Stone replied that he had not contended that re ciprocity would be of great benefit but he had undertaken to show that it would produce no great injury

WICKERSHAM ATTACKS
 DIRECT LEGISLATION PRESIDENT WILSON WAS AM
 OTHER SPEAKER. Listened to His Progressive Ideas
 Get a Roast.

Princeton, N. J., May 1.-Diners at the thirteenth annual banquet of the Daily Princetonian tonight listened to one of the principal speakers tearing to shreds the things which another hOnOred guest has urged ever since his election as governor of New Jersey.
 Attorney General Wickersham in his address preceding that of Governor Wilson scored the recall and referend- um and ridiculed the so-called pro- gressive movement. He said that we are in truth a law-ridden people, and this tendency is stimulated by those who seek popular favor by pointing to easy remedies for obvious ills"
 The idea that a busy, prosperous, commercial people can make or ad- minister laws better than representa- tives chosen from among the people for the purpose has proved its fallacy. said the attorney general
 Continuing. he said: Tn the long run our representative bodies must, and do, give expression to precisely what the matured thought of the majority of the people demand. They may not yield at once to a spasmodic and arti- ficially stimulated emotion induced by one particular class of societs- for its own ends as against all other classes" The attorney general said that i'm patient reformers may chafe at delays as no system of law can he devised that will automatically work good. Gov ernOr Wilson, who followed the attorney general, made no reference in his ad- dress to the thrusts at the progressive movement. The governors topic was "Princeton's Ideals"

MEXICO CITY APPREHENS|VE UnConfifmed RuInOP of the
 Fall of Durango MORE TOWNS MENACED
The Region About the Ma
 tional Capitol Infested by Rebel Bands of Unknown Strength-R epor ts Re ceived of Federal Victories.

City of Mexico, May 1.-UncOnfirm- ed reports that Durango. the capital of the state of that name had fallen into the hands of the rebels. and rumors that attacks would be made soon on Cuervaca and Puebla, two other state capitals south of Mexico City, served to increase the feeling of apprehension here.
 Last night a bridge at San Juan del Rio. south of Queretaro on the line of the Mexican Central was blown up and the destruction of sev- eral small wagon bridges on the line of the National railroad. north of San Luis Potosi has seriously inter fered with traffic on the Laredo route.
 The news that Durango was taken last week is contained in a letter from Torreon which arrived here to- day. The writer says the news reach ed TOrreon that Luis Moya, the rebel leader in the state of Durango, IS now marching with one thousand men to the city to make it his military head quarters.
 In the neighborhOOd of TOrreOn the federals are again in control of the situation. Dissension in the ranks of the rebels who took LerdO and Gomez Palacio, resulted in the evacuation of those two towns after short resist ance. The rebels retired to the hills and for the moment Torreon feels safe from attack.
 An announcement last week by the rebel general, F1guero, of the general plan involving march upon the cap ital was followed by rumors that the city was in imminent danger. This was not the case but wide area ex- tending almost to the city is infested with rebel bands whose number is probably not less than five thousand.
 These forces do not appear to be working under any one head and 1t is considered improbable that a movement on the city will be made. although one afternoon paper appear ed on the streets this afternoon with the startling headlines announcing that 20.O0O rebels were preparing to attack the capital.

New York. May 1-The scheduled strike of machinists for an eight-hOur day, a walk out of one thousand bak- CTS, two big parades and half a dog en smaller ones marked the passage of May Day in labor circles here.
 The machinists' strike was conduct ed quietly and without violence. Ap- proximately 10000 men walked out. the local leaders say. A free for all fight in which three persons were stabbed, broke up one of the parades.
 Three thousand paraders tonight marched down to Union Square, held an open air meeting and adopted res olutiOns protesting against the all legged kidnapping of suspects in the Los Angeles Times dynamite case. The resolution declared the case a parallel to that of Mover, Haywood and Pettibone and pledged organized labor to raise funds for the defense.

damages for trespass unless the land in question was fenced Therefore Light pointed to this law as barring the government from relief. The gov ernment retorted that the fence law applied only to individuals, and not to the state of Colorado or to the United States. If it was meant to apply to the United States, it was argued by the government that the law was unconstitutional. One of the sharp issues of the case was centered on this point.
 So widespread was the interest in the case and so vital the questions involved that the state of Colorado itself threw itself into the contest. Attorney General Barnett was au- thorized to assist Light in fighting the federal government. He did so.
 The attorney general emphasized the argument before the supreme court that no provision of the consti- tuition empowered the federal govern ment to conserve the national re- sources" by providing for continu- ing timber supply, regulating the flow of streams and preserving power sites from being monopolized. He urged that the withdrawal of such large tracts of land. said to be one fifth of the entire area of Colorado, was the denial of equality with the older states which had been allowed to exercise dominion over all the ter ritory within their boundaries.

Confessed to Crime of Which He Was
 Innocent.

Denver. May 1.-An official recom- mendation has been made to the state pardon board to release from the state penitentiary F.. w. Gerbrick. who was sentenced last July to q term of from thirty to forty years for having caused the wreck of a Santa Fe railroad train at Apishapa, Colorado. October 30, 1903.
 Gerbrick was sentenced on his own confession, but Warden Tynan became convinced before Gebrick mad been in the penitentiary many weeks that the man had confessed to a crime he never committed and because of his love for notoriety.
 Gerbrick. after imprisonment had freed him from the influence of drug habits, told the warden where he had been working, and an investigation has convinced the officers that this story was true.
