Throughout his 30 years in the
northland Smith gave his leisure to
reading and studying. He became a
thinker and a reasoner and in his
work he learned to use his power or
brain. From this point his advance
was gradual but sure and in 1868,
when he was As years old, he was ap-
pointed governor of the company with
head offices at Montreal. He was well
equipped for his mighty duties. He
had learned the lessons of generalship
and in the years that followed he
proved himself a commander OF
forces, primal and artificial. Many
times during his governorship crises
arose that put his powers to test.
The activities of Donald A. Smith
outside the Hudson Bay company
brought him into the politics of Can
ada. His political creed was disre-
gard for party interests and. while at
the outset he was staunch support
Ell of Macdonald. the Conservative
premier, later on, because of the
severe criticism and accusations laid
against the party and because he was
convinced that the party was not
conducting itself strictly along square
lines he withdrew his support and
brought about the first defeat of Mac
donald.
Donald A. Smith, silent, reserved
but powerful, was one of the great
est legislators that ever had seat
in the Canadian house Of commons.
His career as lawmaker was one OF
honesty and genius.
In 1896 Lord Strathcona received
the eliminating honor of his great
career He was made the first holder
of the newly-created Office of high
commissioner for Canada in London.
Four years later he received world
fame through his gift of the Strath-
coma horse, body OF % mounted Off
GERS and 512 men, enrolled from all
over the Canadian west, for service In
the Boer war.
In private life this great man Is a
considerable husband and father and
most engaging host One Of the
greatest tributes he ever received
was from the father and mother Of
King George ". the late King Edward
and Queen Alexandra. They always
called him Uncle Donald"
At the advanced age of ninety-one
he Is still marvellous man. His talk
is bright and he is equally at home in
American, Canadian or English poll
tics.

Because the Mercury in the

Calomel is a powerful mercurial drug.
That is why It is used as strong pur-

and II Is the shock Of the mercury and
the bile coming together that causes
the awful nausea vomiting and some
times even salvation. A shock such
as this always weakens the system and
leaves 1t in a susceptible condition, and
in q few weeks there Is another bilious
attack and another dose Of calomel is
necessary. 1t does not require much
reasoning to prove that each bilious
attack roots into the system a little
deeper and a greater shook is necessary
to dislodge It. And every dose Of Gallo

Furthermore, calomel simply throws

JACOBS LIVER SALT beats calomel
every way. 1t contains no mercury; II
fiushes the intestinal canal and bowels
and cleanses them of all sourness and

uric acid poison which has generated
from the fermenting food that has lain
in the stomach and passes It off in the
urine, thus removing the cause, which
has poisoned the blood and Gagged the

The action of JACOBS LIVER SALT
Is quick but mild. 1t contains the same

the state Is standing an the tiptoe of
expectancy as to what the North Caro-
linz Democratic convention will do to-
morrow. The question of instruction
or non instruction loomed large today,
both sides claiming a majority of del
egates. The Woodrow Wilson men
want to commit the delegates before
they leave for Baltimore, but those op-
posing instruction declare they have a
majority. Since only thirty counties
indorsed the New Jersey governor. no.
body can tell how the fight win re-
suit.
The convention will nominate Locke
Craig for governor by acclamation, will
nominate a candidate for lieutenant
governor, two candidates for associate
justice of the supreme court two can
didates for corporation commissioner
and all unopposed state officials.

The action Of President Taft and his
supporters in ~ in the face Of the
expressed will If rne voters, which, ac-
cording to press dispatches, had been
arranged at the white house last week,
gave presidential approval to disre-
gardtng state pledges, and any delega te
can now go to Chicago and be justified
in disregarding any pledges he had
made to vote for Mr. Taft should he
desire to vote for Colonel Roosevelt.

reply.

The colonel was in 1ubilant mood.
He declared that he had received re-
ports from his managers In South Da-
keta indicating beyond question that
he had carried the state In the presi-
Dental primary, Just as the colonel
was starting on his morning horseback
ride he was asked about interviews
given out by Roosevelt men in Chicago
to the effect that he (the colonel
would go to the seat of war next Wed
neaday. Roosevelt replied;
when they say | am going to Chica-
go that Is their own say so, / have not
made up my mind about going to Chi
cago yet and can not at this time"
Although Colonel Roosevelt gave no
definite expression OF his Chicago
plans he intimated that If the national
committee attempts to thrash out the
contests over delegates In starchamber
sessions he would leave for the West
about the middle of next week. AS the
| majority of the members of the nation
al committee are still in public life
however, the colonel believes that he
will get square deal" without going
to the front personally. Mr.. Roosevelt
believes that one-haIf of the contests
will be settled in his favor In open ses-
sions of the committee. This number
he declares, would give him the nom-
nation over President Taft.

Taft Men Certain
Of T. r. Bolt.

The Taft men were certain today
that Roosevelt and his followers would
bolt Although Senator Dixon asserted
that this was all myth, the Taft men
evidently intend to make 1t an actuality
If possible A politician high In the
Taft councils is authority for the
statement that the plan decided on is
to oil up the steam roller and send 1t
straight over the Roosevelt men.
If there is to be a split they believe
this will force the responsibility on
Roosevelt.
Senator Dixon added to former state
ments that the reelection of Taft is
impossible, by stating that his nomina-
tion was physically and humanity i'm
possible
Asked if he expected to win all the
delegate contests, Dixon said:
Did you ever see a man with 10

it would look suspicious to me. We
don't control the national committee
and it would he an insult to any one to
say so.

CHICAGO, June 5.--War without
compromise and with no quarter Was
declared today by the leaders of the
Taft and Roosevelt forces gathered for
the Republican national convention.
Congressman William B. Mckinley, in
q pepperY statement, asserted that
Tafts denomination was already GER
tainty and virtually defied Roosevelt to
visit the convention in person, No ter
rorization of intimidation on the part
of the Roosevelt forces, he asserted,
could change the result.
Senator Joseph NJ. Dixon, head of the
Roosevelt forces, who arrived during
the morning and went to the Roosevelt
headquarters in the Congress hotel
issued statement equally fiery,
He asserted that the talk Of a
Roosevelt bolt" which has been assid-
uously spread by the Taft faction since
the politicians began to gather was
pure Junk" He declared the election
of Taft delegates In Ohio was cold
blooded theft and pointed to the differ
ence in the attitude of Roosevelt in the
Massachusetts primaries and that of
Taft in the Ohio election as typical of
their political methods.
