ORGANIZATION OF ..
FARMERS IN DAvIESS

A permanent organization of the
Daviess County Farmers Cooper
alive Demonstration Club was eff
fected at the court house in Owens
boro at a meeting held on Saturday
morning. The meeting was pre-
sided over by William Haycraft,
the chairman, and there we're about
fifty prominent farmers of the coun-
ty in attendance. BY unanimous
vote of those in attendance the
county board of education was plac-
ed in charge of the organization.
Steps will be taken at once to raise
the $1,000 which is necessary be-
fore a Government farm expert will

farmers of Daxiess county. There

out the following statement when
asked his views of a report from
Cincinnati that Judge Allie w.
Young in an interview in that city
had said Mr.. James, with the State
patronage at his disposal, could
name the next Senator from Ken
lucky.
81 do not claim the right to name
the next Senator from Kentucky.
That is the high prerogative that
belongs to the splendid Democracy
of the State and it is one that
could not usurp If would and
would not if | could.
THE Democracy of that great
State has honored me highly by
electing me as Senator to serve
them in one of the lawmaking
branches of the republic, and not
to dictate to them whom they
should select as my colleague.
81 have never believed that it
was a part of my official duty to
undertake to create myself as a
boss over those whose servant

YALE LAW CHAIR WILL
BE ACCEPTED BY TAFT

Washington, Dec. 23.-President
Taft has made up his mind to &C
cept the prefer of the Kent profess
sorship of law at Yale, and probably
will take up his duties at New Ha-
ven early in the spring.
The President was said to have
determined upon accepting the Yale
professorship for several reasons.
He will not be restricted merely to
lecture to Yale students, but will be
permitted to lecture, if he desires,
in other law schools or upon the
platform or to engage in any other
occupation which he sees fit.
The analogy between the Yale
professorship and Grover Cleve-
lands relation with Princeton APP
pealed to Mr.. Taft strongly, and
when many of his close friends and
advisers wrote to him approving
his acceptance OF the chair at Yale,
he decided to take 1t.
The President expects to spend
several weeks after March 4 in Au-
gusta, Ca, where he has passed two
winter vacations.

St. Augustine, Fla, Dec. 90
President Taft, in a speech here to-
night, congratulated the South up
on the election of a Democratic
President, predicted nationwide
prosperity under the new Admins

nation takes the quadrennial YER
dict of the people at the polls.
The President spoke in the Ma

interrupted by applause. He closed
with a remark that swept the hall
with laughter:

said. lis the thought that there will
break in upon the people and some
individuals the fact that there are
not enough Offices to go around.

visited the South during a previous
election administration that | ven
tured to think a great many of my
audience would vote one way and
pray another.
81 do not think that was the
case in the last campaign-at least
there was nothing to indicate it,,
The morning after the election ev-
erything was settled, everybody
acquiesced and there was not what
in colloQuial terms would be called
a kick anywhere.
81 congratulate you, my friends.
on the prospect that in this Admin
istration to come the South and the
North may be brought more closely
together, and the South may, nat
urally, have a wider influence be-
cause of the success of the Demo-

CANCER SPECIFIC
IS DISCOVERED
Says the Head of a Chi
cagO Hospital. =
FIFTEEN ARE CURED, IT'S SAID
DR.. WhamOnd Slow to Make
Formal Claim, But Ad-
mits the Discovery.
CURE is TAKEN INTERNALLY

Chicago, Dec 20.-"Seeing is be-
lieving." Fifteen men and women,
all more than so pears old. most of
them under sentence of death from
physicians and surgeons, who had
done their utmost, have been cured
of cancer within the past five
months.
DR.. A. A. Whamond. President of
the Robert Burns Hospital, thus
told tonight what has been accom-
plished at the hospital by the use of
cancer specific discovered by DR..
Joseph de Stefano, of this city.
That which scientists all over
the world have been trying to &C
complish for many years-the per-
lection of a cure for cancer-is au-
thoritatively declared to have been
accomplished by DR.. de Stefano.
Shortly after the first of the
year we shall present the matter to
the Chicago Medical Society,"" said
DR.. Wbamond. we shall show
the patients as they now are, the
photographs showing their condi-
ton when treatment started.
"Dr. de Stefano and myself were
very averse to giving this informa-
ton to the public until it had first
been properly presented to the med
ical profession, but patient, I un-
derstand, has told the story widely.
I'VE can only confirm it, for II is
entirely true. am happy to say
that DR.. de Stefano has succeeded
wonderfully. When l first tried
his specific on a patient in this hos
pital it was when an operation had
been performed and the patient had
been told that she must die shortly
that her case was hopeless.
81 decided to give her some of
the medicine in the hope that it
would at least alleviate her pain,
and l was delighted to see that it
did 80. Therefore | continued to
give her the specific, and at the end
of seven weeks she walked out of
this hospital. ...
1--WE are naturally keeping every
case under surveillance. but in every
case we have had the satisfaction
Of seeing every trace of the terrible
disease disappear" ...
81 thank God that have been
permitted to discover this cure
said DR.. de Stefano tonight. Aside
from the credit that may rebound
to me, | give heartfelt thanks that
through me the Almighty has seen
fit to give this boon to humanity
Only those who know, who have
seen the awful suffering caused by
cancer, can thoroughly understand
what this means"
Not until the subject is presented
to the Chicago Medical Society will
the exact nature of the compound
be explained. It is taken internal
ly, either in capsule form or from a
spoon.
