 Dr. Wm. L. Bosscrman, of Buff falo, N. Y, says: "I am pleased to speak 8 good word for your Casto- ria. I think 80 highly of it that not only recommend it to others, but have used it in my own family"
 Dr. F. H. Kyle. of St. Paul. Minn., says: ct affords me plea sure to add my name to the long list of those who have used and now endorse your CastoFia.

 Dr. R. J. Hamlen, of Detroit, Mioa., says l prescribe your Cas- toria extensively as I have never found anything to equal it for chil- dren's troubles. 1 am aware that there are imitations in the field, but l always Sse that my patients get Fletcher's."
 Dr. Charming H.

 Dr. R. M. Ward, of Kansas City, Mo-, says Physicians generally do lot prescribe proprietary prepa- rations, but in the case of Castoria my experience, like that of many other physicians, has taught me to make an exception. I prescribe your Castoria in my practice be- cause I have found it to be thor oughly reliable remedy for chil- dren's complaints.

very powerful in finance were in some
states acquiring the habit OF rehoer-
ing far too much assistance to Legls-
latures in choosing senators. Inc ac-
ton of our Legislature, rejecting the
desire of our people to participate more
directly in the election of senators, is
in accord with my own view, which is
to a degree, doubtless, the result OF my
own political experience. With the eX-
ception of an unsought appointment by
Gov. Russell, have never held pub
lie office to which 1 was not elected by
vote of the people.
Il have therefore decided to make
known my position, and at this time,
in order that, by discussion among the
people and beteen them and their Leg
islative candidates, the subject of the
senatorship may receive more direct
consideration, and thus the representa-
tives may be better able to reflect in
their votes the opinion of their constit-
uents. This course seems to me prefer
able to policy of silence, to be hrok
en- only after the members shall have
been elected and set apart, when, in the
absence of any developed public senti-
ment, they may possibly be misled by
intrigue and by influence not exercised
wholly in the public interest.

aspiring to the senatorship to control

Chicago, Aug. 4.-The National
Progressive party will be formally
launched, tomorrow, at noon. in the
Coliseum, where little more than d
month ago President Taft was re-
nominated for the Presidency on the
Republican ticket, over the protest OF
many of those now leading the third
party movement.
over the main entrance door has
been hung the head of Bull Moose,
in token of the nickname attached to
the new party.
Between 100 and 1900 delegates are
expected to gather in the Coliseum, to-
morrow. On Wednesday, when all the
necessary preliminaries have been dis
posed of. they will ratify the name of
Col. Roosevelt for President. Who
will be the nominee for Vice President
is not known. Few of the leaders in
the city will discuss the subject of q
running mate for the colonel, declaring
ii is a matter to be threshed out in
the convention and decided as the del
egates deem best for the interests of
the party.
So far. only the temporary officers
of the convention have been given out,
1t was quite generally reported, to-
night. however, that Col. John NJ. Par

would be the permanent chairman of

Last Fortnight of Present
Session Begins, Monday.
VIII Sit Evenings in Effort TO
Close Up Business in Time.
Tariff Bills and BatiIeshIp Features
In House, This Week.

| Washington, Aug. 4.-Congress will
| begin. tomorrow, what is expected to
be The last fortnight of the present
session. Adjournment by Aug. Is Or
liz is confidently expected. The post
ponement of the Archibald impeaeh-
ment trial until Dec. 3 has cleared the
docks of the Senate SO that remaining
| legislative matters can be pushed to
a speedy finish.
Uncertainty exists as to the fate of
some of the appropriation bills. that
are still at issue between the Senate
and House. The determination to
abolish the commerce court and to
place a seven year tenure of office in
the civil service law. has aroused an
| tagonism, which may be reflected in
| the White House in a veto of the bill
appropriating money for the salaries
of federal employees. This contin4
gency has been anticipated by the
leaders of both Houses. and an effort
is to be made, Monday, to complete
the legislative, executive and judicial
appropriation bill. so that it may be
sent at once to the President. In casa
of an executive veto, ii is believed Il
can again be considered. passed, and
resubmitted to him in amended form
without seriously delaying plans for
adjournment.
Action on tariff bills. and reopen
ing of the two battleship fight in the
House, will be features of this weeks
session. The Senate will act on the
compromise wool tariff hill. tomorrow
and will probably agree to it, as the
House has done. A meeting of the
conference committee on. the excise
tax bill, Monday or Tuesday. is ex-
pected to result in an agreement that
will send that measure also to Presi =
dent Taft. during the week.
1t has been asserted by the Pres
dents friends. in both Houses. that he
will veto all of the tariff bills that
| reach him. Such action would be ac
cepted as final by Congress and no
attempt would be made at this session
to repass the measures.
The Democrats of the House will
| take up the battleship question in eau
| Gus. Tuesday. The leaders in the fight
| for at least one new man-of-war in
this years naval building program
| succeeded in forcing the third caucus
on the subject, and it is believed they
will control the situation. If the House
| agrees to one ship the Senate is ex-
peoted to accept the compromise, al
though it wants two.
Many of the most important appro-
| priauon bills remain to be completed
| and the Senate has not as yet COM
plcted half of the expected debate on
| the Panama canal administration bill.
Both Houses will begin daily sessions
| at 10 O'Clock. this week, however, and
| probably will sit evenings from to
IL, making IL hours daily. Under such
