WILSON TO CALL
SPECIAL SESSION
President Elect Says
Date Will Not Be
Later Than
April IS.

Woodrow Wilson, President
elect, made the following state
ment last night regarding spe-
cial session of Congress:
81 shall call Congress together
in extraordinary session not later
than April IS. I shall do this not
only because | think that the
pledges of the party ought to be
redeemed as promptly as possible,
but also because | know it to be
in the interest of business that all
uncertainty as to what the par
ticular items of tariff revision are
to be should be removed as soon
as possible"

Why Hesitate?
An Offer That Involves no Money
Risk If You Accept 1t.

We are so positive our remedy VIII
completely relieve constipation, no
ma tier how chronic it may be, that we
offer to furnish it free of all cost If it
fails
constipation is commonly caused by
weakness of the nerves and muscles
OF the large intestine. To expect a
cure you must therefore tone up and
strengthen those organs and restore
them to healthier activity.
We want you to try Rexall Order
lies on our guarantee. They are eat
en- like candy, and are particularly
good for children. They seem to act
directly on the nerves and muscles of
the bowels. They apparently have a
neutral action on the other organs.
They do not purge or cause other in
convenience. We will refund your
money If they do not overcome
chronic or habitual constipation and
thus aid to relieve the myriads of as
sociate or dependent chronic ailments.
Try Rexall Orderlies at our risk.

HAS NOT RESIGNED
Yet Wilson Heads Peniey's Petition as
Auburn Representative.

Although Hon John S. P. H. VIII
son. chairman of the Inland Fisheries
and Game Commission. has not yet
rendered his resignation as a member
of tie 18th Legislature. it seems TO be
evident that he agrees With the Au-
burn city council that by accepting
the office of chairman of the Inland
Fisheries and Game Commission he has
vacated his seat as a member of the
Legislature.
Late, Monday afternoon, petition
for the nomination of Z. w. Penley of
Auburn, as a Democratic candidate
for representative to the Legislature,
heated by John s. P. III. Wilson, was
filed at the office of the secretary of
State.
This is the first nomination for a
representative to the Legislature to
be filed under the provisions of Sec
ton of the direct y primary law,
which authorizes nomina tons by pc
tition, according to the provisions or
the Revised Statutes. The law provides
for one signature, for every 100 votes
cast at the last Gubernatorial cleo
ton. or not less than Is names. The
petition Ct Mr.. Penley contains 30
signatures.

Masquerade Carnival, Tuesday, at Rink

A grand masquerade carnival will
be held, Tuesday evening, at the Select
Roller rink and it promises to draw
one of the largest crowds of the ses9
son.
The crowds at the Select Roller rink
are growing larger as the days be-
come longer. There is no let-up. Even
in the Afternoon the young people are
present in ever-increasing numbers,
and the organ, that dandy. big electric
affair, seldom plays to only a few en-
thusiasts. The waltzes, marches and
Schottisches are peculiarly adapted
to roller skating, and the young men
and women have no cause to complain
OF. and every reason to praise, the
music provided at the Select Roller
rink. Fun and exercise are the at
fractions at this amusement place.
The moving pictures offered by
Manager Murree are meeting with the
general approval of the Augusta pub
lie and scores of people who have
never tried the art of roller skating,
go to the rink for the purpose of see
ing real good. up-to-date pictures.

tile sentiment out in the country re-
gions. All this is reason, in part for
the change of program from the whip
and-spur idea.
There is also reason for believing
that Democrats discovered Republi-
cans were laying the foundations for
putting something over on them. Min
ority Leader Mann has been a great
success. He is ON the. job every min
ute of the day, when the House is in
session. He is always hanging on the
TANKS as it We're. He wants to know
why everything is done or not done.
Much business is held up. because the
eagle eye of the Minority Leader dis
covers flaws and defects. He is not at
all delicate about bringing these to at
tention, all of which is troublesome to
the Democratic brethren.
Insurgents and Democrats in the
last Congress revised the House rules
unwisely. Then it was largely mat
ter of tying the regular Republicans
in hard knot They were not so sure
when they agreed upon the so-called
Calendar Wednesday,. and upon the
provision for discharging a committee
from the consideration of IA bill that
they (the Democrats) were coming in
to authority in short time But the
landslide came and the Democrats,
finding themselves in control of the
House, did not dare to go back upon
the revisions of the rules that they
themselves had forced. Minority Lead
er Mann is a good parliamentarian and
he knows how to take advantage of
! those and other reforms in the
rules.
Therefore it is that the Democrats
have to rack their brains for expe-
| dents. Calendar Wednesday," com
| ing once week, has been bothering
| their very political existence. Word
| has apparently gone out to committee
| chairmen not to report bills but to
hold these measures back. 1t is said
| that nearly 1000 small bills, many of
| them private pension bills, have been
| agreed upon in committee bat the re-
| ports have not been made-on one pre-
text or another. In their zeal for ae-
ton some Democratic committees re-
ported measures that are likely to be
embarrassing for consideration Ger
tain of these might expose the party
to vigorous criticism. in the effort to
stave off the evil day Democratic lead
/ ers have undertaken to debate indef-
| initely numerous little bills
An instance to the point is the de-
bate that has ragged for two calendar
Wednesdays on a pindIing little bill

in June, it might be easier to focus pub
lie attention upon the things-that Pres
ident Taft has achieved.
Democrats expect the Senate to kill
tariff legislation or the President to veto
any tariff bills that reach him. If they
can bring it about that this shall be done
in August, say, they could make 1t a
fresh campaign issue in September and
october, which will be the stressful po-
lticaI months. AS the Democratic ma
tional convention meets in the nearby
city of Baltimore, 1t would be no serious
embarrassment to the Democrats for
Congress to be in session at that time.
1t would be more serious for the Republic
cans as their convention meets in Chi
