Chicago, June lI.--Cne delegate
for Col. Roosevelt, the first awarded
him since the National Committee
began the hearing Of contest cases
last Friday, and seventeen for Presi-
dent Taft, were the net results of
today's. session of the Republican
National Committee.
In all, t01 delegates have been
accorded President Taft since the
Committee opened its hearings. The
one placed in the Roosevelt column,
today, was c. p. Edwards from the
eleventh district of Kentucky. The
Taft forces on the committee refus-
ed by vote of 33 to 10 to seat both
of the Roosevelt delegates, whose
places were contested, but agreed to
give Roosevelt and Taft one each
from the district.
The half victory for Roosevelt
came at the end Of the day in which
all of the other much discussed con-
tests from Kentucky had been de-
eided in Taft's favor. In some of
these the Roosevelt men had ac-
quiesced, In others they had mus
tered vote of ii to II against the
Taft decisions.

to adopt the substitute to seat both
Roosevelt men, but they could mus

tion was then unanimously seated.
President Taft's four contested
deleg egates-at-large from Kentucky
were seated with only eleven votes
in the negative, He was given the
six from the first, served and tenth
unanimously. The contest against
the two in the fourth was with
drawn and the six from the sew
enth, eighth and eleventh were won
against the votes of the Roosevelt
forces,
Sharp inter- change between

of the Committee, characterized the

referred to frauds In Kentucky cleo

A Few Facts About
LIVER u

A dull, sluggish liver always brings
a dull, sluggish feeling to the entire
body. When the liver works properly
the blood courses through the body in
a bright red stream. When the liver
is inactive the blood becomes dull and
mud, and it is full of poisonous
matter. A great many people try to
get a fine, clear. pink and white com
plexion by rubbing things on their
faces. They might rub a lifetime and
the same yellow complexion would re-
main for the liver causes it. Only
bright, red blood brings fine complex
ions. Blood loaded with impurities
from the liver sends the impurities
out through the pores of the skin and
turns the skin a brownish yellow.
To get rid Of the dull, heavy feeling
and muddy. yellow complexion get the
liver to working again. Two Soc bot
