How Cold Affects the Kldneys

Avoid taking cold if your kidneys
are sensitive. Cold congests the
kidneys, throws too much work upon

Serious kidney trouble and even
Bright's disease may result.

the pain and soreness, build them

ney Pills. Tonic in action, quick
in results. Sold by all druggists.

ANTI GAG" PROV|S0
PASSED BY CONGRESS
President Can Not Now Prevent
Government Employees from
Seeking Relief.

WASHINGTON, May 9.-The house
has adopted a provision in the post
office appropriation bill which will
rule on employees in the postal SER
vice.
The vote on this provision was 1872
in favor and 1 against, the Republi-
can minority leader, Mr.. Mann, re-
cording his vote in the negative.
This provision will restore to the
employees of the government their
rights as citizens under the constitu-
ton and prohibit the promulgation
of any executive order denying the
right of postal employees Of the gov
eminent to appear before committees
IN congress or engage in other activi-
ties in securing increases in wages.
shortening of hours or redress of
grievances.
The American Federation of Labor
is directly responsible for the inser-
ton of this provision in the bill, and
the postal employees, as we'll as all
other employees Of the government, if
this provision is accepted by the SEN
ate, will be protected in their right
to form labor unions affiliated with
the American Federation of Labor.
1t is probable that the senate will
accept this provision in the bill, and
as it is an amendment to the post
office appropriation bill, the presi-
dent would be pOwerless to eliminate
the provision except by vetoing the
entire bill.

WASHINGTON, May 9.-War on.
the Infamous Root amendment to the
Dillingham; immigration bill, which is
intended to abolish the right of po-.

out today before the House commit
tee on Immigration.
Representative Victor L. Berger,
the Socialist member from Wisconsin,.
made a strong speech in denuncia-a
ton of the Root measure.
He declared that, in his opinion, it
would be so construed as to bring
about the deportation Of any alien
who might be contributing money to
aid the cause of liberty in the land
of his birth.
Many foreign born citizens are
greatly stirred up over the measure,
especially in it's bearing on Russia,
and a delegatio fronm New York is
expected before the committee next
week. 1t is not believed the House
will dare to pass the measure as
amended, but it's opponents do not
want it to come out of the commit
tee.

that the amendment practically abol-s
ishes the right of asylum for political
refugees in the United States, said:
"This would mean an entirely new
policy for the United States-a policy
Just opposite to that we have
practised since this country was
formed. and even before that. It is
a policy entirely at variance with that
of enlightened European countries.
Even in semi-constltutional mon
archy like Germany the passage Of
such law would be impossible nova
days.
1T is reversal to the worst form
of reaction, to the tyranny of ancient
days. 1t is an approval of the poll
ctes of the absolute monarchies Of
modern times. The Root amendment
breeds the spirit Of piut No;
