Editor OF The Virginian
have your editorial OF this date complain
ing OF ambiguity In my recent letter TO Or.

merce in liquor
The language employed in that communica-
ton was intended to he plain and was sur
prised that any one had found ir Of doubtful
meaning
>,t having beea in congress had not, Of

With the details Of legislation attempted on
this subject, Ats parliamentary status
when | made answer to the question sub
mtted
Congress having the power ITO regulate
commerce with foreign nations and among the
several States" without federal legislation
therefore. state has the right to exclude
from it's territory any commodity which Is the
subject OF commerce from another state. For
several years bills, varying In scope, have been
pending in congress. designed to secure legis-
lation Of this nature, and while there ha )
been a difference of legal opinion on the ques-
ton, do not doubt the constitutional power
of congress- TO enact such legislation
And, believing do, that each state
ought to control its own affairs. II chosen to
congress. | would support such amendment
to existing Law. or such enactment, as
would enable each State to carry into effect its
own local policy: that is, If the people OF a
state. IN the exercise OF their own rights, de-
termine that liquor should not be delivered
from without they shall find no federal law
to thwart their will. Having restated thus
plainly as j conceive. the principle upon which
T world act the application Of 1he principle
to any given measure can be readily made By
ANYBODY acquainted with its provisions: and
for this reason have not deemed il necessary
TO wait and obtain the particular bills to which
you have referred.
With much respect.

Easy to Get Relief
From INDIGESTION

Your stomach should digest the food
you eat, without the aid Of any arti-
fetal dlyestives. If it won't do that
then you are continually subject to
dyspepsia, indigestion, heartburn, head
aches and constipation.
instead Of taking digestive medi-
cine, take steps to get your stomach
and intestines again i'll healthy,
natural condition. Jayne's Tonic Yer
mifuge will do this for you will take
it regularly. It is not digester OF
foods, but it will restore your stomach
and inte5tireS SO that they will attend
to their natural functions, digest,ng
what you eat and giving strength TO
the body.
For more than eighty years thou
sands of men and women who had suf-
fered the pains caused by dypeps4a
and indigestion have been praising
this Tonic as the only remedy which
brought them permanent relief. As
the Tonic acts directly upon the
stomach 3nd intestines, it is natural
appetizer and strength builder.
Many forms of supposed indigestion
are the result of intestinal parasites,
for which Jayne's Tonic Vermifuge
is unsurpassed. Insist upon jayne $;
accept no other. Sold by druggists
everywhere. DR.. D. Jayne + Son,

save their immortal soul. With life
viewed from this point, the verses Of
our lesson which state that it were
better to lose an eye or foot, or hand
if they stood in the way of attaining
everlasting life, are best understood.
These verses mean that the most i'm
portant thing is to escape everlasting
punishment and that to do so it were
best to even sacrifice SO important
members of our body as the eye or
hand 1t could as well be said also
that we can afford the sacrifice of
what some call the pleasures of the
world" be what they may, if by in
dulging in them we lose eternal life.
In explanation OF the declaration Of
Jesus that He came to save that which
was lost, He brings before our mind
the oft repeated story of one who,
having one hundred sheep made dill
gent search for one which was lost,
going out upon the bleak mountains
to rescue it. AS the human shepherd
who loves his sheep has no pleasure
in the death or loss of any one OF
them, in much more intensified way,
our Heavenly Father does not will
that any of us should perish, but that
all should have everlasting life. With
this declaration the lesson verses
close. We can but feel that we have
not been able to do full justice to this
magnificent and important part OF the
new testament in the limited space at
our command, but we hope that some
thing has been said which will leave
an impression upon readers and cause
them to give long and extended con-
sideration of what Jesus said at this
time.

Estimates secured by members of
congress recently indicate that the
regular pension bill probably will car
ry about 175,0O0,O0O. This in itself
will be record-breaking total, as the
Sherwood law materially increased
many pensions. 1t has not been de-
termined whether the deficit of ap-
proximately $2O,O0O,OOO will be added
to the regular appropriation bill or
put into some other measure.

Appropriations of nearly $2OO,OOO,-
900 for pensions to veterans of Amer
lean wars will be necessary at the
short session of congress which con-
vened Monday. The usual sum, ex-
ceeding all appropriations for former
years, will be necessary to make up a
deficit of nearly $20,0O0,0O0 resulting
from the increase of pensions under
the Sherwood law of last summer and
the proportionate increase Of the gen
eral pension budget occasioned by
this act.

the past three years, as well as having
served as prosecuting attorney for
Canyon county three terms and his
qualificatlons are unquestioned for the
high office he seeks.
When your merchant tells you he has flour
as good as Princess he does so because he
