AUSTIN CALLED
TOOL Of TRUST
Tennessee Congressman Ar.
raigned on House Floor as
Betrayer of Constituents.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2O.-Represen-
tative Austin, Republican, of Tennessee,
was denounced by Representative Raj
ney, Democrat, of Illinois. on the floor
of the house today as being in the
service of the water power trust. Aus
tins resignation from the house was
suggested because of Austins alleged
intention ito hand over the city Of
Knoxville, Tenn. and the constituents
of his district, bound and gagged, to
the water power corporation"
Representative Rainey declared that
Representative Austin received $4,000
in stock for an investment of s21 from
the Knoxville Power Company. which
he afterward sold for $4,000 in cash.
Rainey continued:
Il desire now to consider the Ten
nessee situation. The omnibus dam bill
provides II dams for the rivers Of Ten
nessee. Two of these dams are not to
be constructed in Representative Aus
tins district, but in the district of his
colleague, Mr.. Sells, who was without
knowledge of the bills until they were
presented on the floor of this house.
Well Trodden Trail.
I'm my investigation of the water
power trust, insofar as it relates to the
rivers Of Tennessee, l find a well trod-
den trail leading from the congression-
al Office Of the gentleman from Ten
nessee to the representative Of the wa
ter power trusts and for the benefit Of
the gentleman from Tennessee and 9TH
ers who may be interested in this sub
ject, l propose now to call attention to
the evidence he heretofore so vigorous
ly demanded that | produce
Representative Rainey then offered
records which he asserted were proof
that Representative Austin was in the
employ Of the water power trust
Recently" concluded Mr.. Rainey.
the gentleman from Tennessee made
the statement that if I could produce
proofs that he. as a representative. IA
Vored the water power trust he would
consider himself disgraced and would
resign. | do not insist that the gentle
man resign from this body. | do not
think, however, that the cause OF water
power conservation in Tennessee would
suffer if the gentleman's connection
with this house would cease. The gen.
tleman will be missed if he resigns
however, by water power trust lobbies."

What the Party Offers.

"Hdt tnc rarity OHerSs
THE voter who can not satisfy him
self this year is indeed censorious.
Eliminating the verbiage of platforms
taking their substance and viewing the
candidates placed on them, the voter
who believes that the cost of production
at home and abroad should be equalized
to the manufacturer of this country and
who wants an oligarchy to rule may
vote the straight Republican ticket;
the voter who believes in a similar
protective theory. but who prefers to
an oligarchy that the president shall be
the state, may vote the Progressive
ticket; the voter who believes this gov
eminent should be turned into a So
cialism, may vote the SocialstiC tick
et the voter who thinks that church
and state are not separate in America
and that the people have a right to set
tie religious questions and to determine
by ballot what is good and what is bad
may vote the Prohibition ticket, and all
those who insist that it is not the bust
ness of government to equalize the cost
of production at home and abroad to
the manufacturer until it equalizes the
difference in the purchase price to the
consumer at home and abroad, who be-
lieves that the only equalization justi
fable in our government is the equali-
zation Of opportunity. who thinks that
public office is a public trust, who does
not believe that disgruntled and de-
feated politicians are genuine reform
ers, and who think that reforms
are not born with sore toes may vote
the Democratic ticket"

frequently broke through the clouds to

prepared for indoor ceremonies in case
of showers, crowds early began to gath

congregate within sight and hearing of

rying 100 Illinois Democrats arrived
at 1870 p. m.
Following a sightseeing tour of the
city in automobiles, a noon luncheon,
given by Thomas Taggart at his hotel,
occupied the time until the notification
ceremonies began.
At the conclusion Of the speeches an

Practising physicians making a spe-

responsible for the formula from
which ReXall Dyspepsia Tablets are

Our experience with ReXal Dys-
pepsia Tablets leads us to believe them
to be an excellent remedy for the
relief of acute Indigestion and chronic
dyspepsia. Their ingredients are
soothing and healing to the inflamed
membranes of the stomach. They are
rich in pepsin, one OF the greatest di-
Sestive aids known to medicine The
relief they afford is almost immediate.
Their use with persstency and regu-
larity for a short time helps to bring
about cessation of the pains caused
by stomach disorders.

sure healthy appetite, aid digestion,
and promote nutrition. AS evidence

After experimenting for ten years.

unicycle engine which will revolution
fzo the industry.
Il began experimenting while was

Mr. Gle. according to the Boston
Traveller. my boys were running a
bicycle shop there and became inter
ested In tho mechanism of engines. l
have devoted a great deal Of my time
since then to the subject and now
have evolved an engine with only one
cylinder. which does the work OF the
ordinary four cylinder engine From
this engine get six times az much
power as from an ordinary engine OF
the same size.
by my arrangement l have done
away with weight on tho ny or bal
ance wheel In the ordinary engine
the balance or ny wheel is the heav'
Test part of 1t. but in mine II is the
llghtest part. For instance, while the
fywheel of an ordinary engine OF
eight horse power weighs between 300
and 600 pounds, mine weighs only 40.
This IL because get continuous i'm
pulse and do not need a heavy ny
wheel to balance the machine.
my engine is practically noiseless
and either kerosene, alcohol or gaso-
line may be used in 1t. There is also
less vibration to 1t.
81 consider this engine of mine a
wonderful thing for motor boats, as It
does away with weight as well as CIV
ing more power in small space. No
FIRE ever comes out of the exhaust, as
the engine uses up the charge entire
ly. You can't hear any noise from the
engine six feet away"
