INDORSE NEWBRO'S
 HERPICIDE FOR THE HAIR

When a doctor endorses prepara- tion it means more than an ordinary testimonial. His opinion is always that of the professional man devoted to the welfare of the people
 Dr. J. J. Boyd, Coyington, Tenn, says: T feel it my duty to write this for the benefit of those suffer- ing from dandruff. Tn theaverage case a few applications or Newbro's Her1icide will remove all dandruff. It is advisable to continue it's use for several weeks"
 The words of J. B. Thompson, NJ. D., No. Burrough Place, Cor. Hollis St., Boston, Mass, are not less en- thusiastic; T can only speak in praise of Newbros Herpicide. It is all that is claimed and perhaps more. Herpicide not only cleanses the scalp but brightens the hair, gives it life and makes it soft"

 Manager Joe McGinnity of Newark was offered back Joe Agler by the Cubs. but declined to take him. since he is sure Harry Swacina will fill all requirements. Agler and Smith went to the Cubs in deal by which Mo Ginnity was to get players or cash. Bob Fisher was sent to Newark and a list of others, including Agler, submit ted to McGinnity. None of them look ed good to him and he demanded cash instead, to the amount of $3,00O Pres ident Murphy sent him check for the amount and Agler went to Jersey City. The deal McGinnity made was a good one, for Fisher bids fair to be worth as much as both Smith and Agler, and Joe has the 5000 bones besides.

DISMISSAL OF
 THE CONTESTS
CanVassing Board By Vote of Two to One Decides il is Without Authority to go Behind the Returns.

At a meeting of the board en- gagged in canvassing the returns of the election of December 12. held yesterday in the office of the governor, it was decided by a vote of two to one. that the board had no authority to go behind the returns in considering the con tests filed with it. These contests were therefore dismissed and if taken up loter it muse be through the courts.
 There were three contests filed one for superior judge in Navajo county; one for district attorney in Coconino county and one for treasurer in Santa Cruz county. Allen T. Bird appeared for the contestant in Santa Cruz county and Attorney O'Connor for the contestee. J. M. Jamison appear ed for the contestant in Navajo county and all the principals we're either present or represented by. counsel.
 At the request of the canvass ing board Attorney General J. B. Wright and Attorney General elect Bullard also appeared bes fore the board to expound the law as they saw it. The hearing lasted for two hours and at the conclusion a vote was taken on a resolution that the board had no jurisdiction or authority to go be- hind the returns, Chief Justice Kent and Governor Sloan voted in the affirmative and Territorial Secretary Young voted in the negative.
 The question hinged on the meaning of the word deter mine" both in the constitution and in the election ordinance. In the stautes under which form CT elections have been canvassed the board is instructed to canvass and declare" there suit while in the new law it is canvass and determine. !" On the use of that word it was contended the board had jurisdiction to inquire into the vote. -Ariz. Rep.

SENATOR LA TOILETTE.
He Has Come Back From His Western Trip Very Mad.

Whisper it softly, but Senator La Toilette, Presidential candi- date, IS back in Washington from his Christmas holiday tour. like Napoleon from Moscow. The Senators return may not have been quite as disastrous in actual casualties, but none the less it has been a sad, sad return. Presi- dent Taft may have been mad and ex-President Roosevelt may have felt angry at his predeces- sor, but there has been nothing like the gloom and despair around the progressive head quarters in this city. The Sena- tor is himself a man of grit. He stays in a fight to the end, no matter how hot it turns out to be. But he is a very mad man himself, and his wrath will not be easily assuaged.
 It is no secret that the Senator has little love for President Taft. That is only a circumstance to the manner in which he regards ex-President Roosevelt. It is Roosevelt who has fiattened the La Toilette boom out like a pan
