OHIO CONSTITUTION READY
Convention Would Curb Supreme
Court-Primaries Favored.

Columbus, June 1.-Forty-two proposed
constitutional amendments, framed and
ready TO present to the voters for ratiGca-
ton at q special election on Septembe- 3. IS
tine completed work OF the Ohio constitu-
tional convention, which adjourned to-day
The most radical change planned Is the
limiting OF the power Of the Supreme Court.
In the same proposal the name of the Cir
cult Court is changed to the Court OF APP
peals, and the Appellate Court is made the
court OF last resort in most cases.
The convention voted TO remove the word
male" from the bill OF rights of the pres
ent constitution and thereby to give votes
to women.
Theodore Roosevelt's Ideas upon the d.
rect primary were upheld. A proposal was
passed providing for the direct primary
election Of delegates to national conven-
lions and for the primary nomination or
state and city officials. The proposal also
provides for a preferential vote for United
state Senators However, the Legislature
will not be required to adhere TO the result
of the preferential vote.
The delegates refused to pass the re
call" but passed a plan for the prompt
removal OF public officials, including the
Judiciary, upon complaint and hearing.

MKlNLEY TURNED DOWN
Taft Manager Failed, Like Dixon,
to Get Convention Seats
trrom The Tribune Bureau I

Washington. June 1.--Director Mskin-
lev of the Taft bureau received no bet
ter treatment at the hands Of the COM
mittee OH arrangements for the Chicago
convention than Senator Dixon, of the
Roosevelt bureau, according to a state
ment made public by the bureau to-day.
Mr.. Mckinley said:
The purpose of Mr.. Roosevelt and his
campaign managers TO try to make "
appear that they have been robbed every
time they do not have their way has again
been manifested In the attitude assumed
by Senator Dixon, Mr. Roosevelts national
campaign manager. in appealing to the en-
tire national committee because its SUBJ
committee refused TO honor his request for
251 tickets to the Republican National Con-
yention for the use or the Roosevelt ma
tional committee.
Ten days ago ] made a similar request
for 100 tickets for the national Taft bureau.
and was refused them on exactly the same
grounds on which Senator Dixon was re-
fused tickets for his committee. President
Taft has received $50 tickets as President Of
the United States. not for his personal use.
or for the use of his friends but for his
offcial use. and out of this number he must
care for the entire diplomatic corps num-
such other representatives I'm this country
az NAV come within the Official recogni-
fion OF the President. Should the Presi-
dent be called on officially to meet the en-
tire demand that may rightfuly be made on
him. the supply Of tickets given him on
cialy would ne exhausted several times
senator Dixon has seen nj TO mako much

a. worth while to run to the country with a

The Tribune is also informed from
competent source that the two delegates
from the 1st District of Connecticut are

ton voted down Taft instructions. They
are therefore transferred from the "un-

Supersedes Massage
as Wrinkle Remover
(The Woman Beautifully

Many women regularly visit the
beauty specialist to have their wrin-
kles iroucd out with the help of hot
applications, cold creams and massage.
Most of MS realize that there comes a
time when no amount of persuasion
of this sort will avail This process
OF "wrinkle removing" is wrong in
principle. Both the hot water and the
massaging tend TO expand and loosen
tho skin, besides softcnlng the muscu
lar foundation.
The very opposite result should be
aimed at. The tissue should he
strengthened, the skin frightened, so
thcre'lI be no room for wrinkles. The
best known preparation for the pur.
pose can he made at home by dissolv-
ing ] OF. saxolite in y pint witch
hazel. Use ,s a wash lotion. The et-
feet is really marvellous. Tell the
druggist you want the powdered SAX
olite, which dissolves immediately.
