the democratic party before elections.

call on Mr.. Wilson in order to close the
incident that caused George Harvey and
himself to withdraw their support of Mr.

his nomination. 1t is stated that friendly
letters have passed between President
Wilson and Mr.. Watterson.
The campaign of Representative A.
Mitchell Palmer of Pennsylvania for the
Senate is receiving the Presidents
hearty support. Mr.. Wilson has been in

may accept; but if he does it is believed
he. will not touch on politics.

Owing to the prominence given to tho
subject of absenteeism in the House
in the past year, roll calls and attend

Rome, Aug. 20--Pope Plus X is
dead.
Together in one; all things in
Christ" the words which Pope Plus
X adopted as his motto in an en-
cyclical on August 10, 1908, six days
after he had been elevated to the pom
titicar chair, were on his lips as he
entered the valley of death.
The end, which came at 1:20 o'clock
this morning, was peaceful A few
moments before he had been aroused
from state of semiconsciousness and
he attempted to bestow a blessing on
those gathering in the chamber, but
his strength failed him After pause
he murmured the scriptural text and
did not speak again.
The death of the pontiff in the
eightieth year of his life and the
twelfth year of his pontificate, while
long anticipated because of ailments
incident to advanced age. neverthe-
less came as a shock even to those
near him. For several days he had
been suffering from gouty catarrh,
hut on Tuesday his physicians declared
I.that the trouble was of no great i'm
portance, and yesterday morning re.
assuring reports concerning the pa
tient were current
The change came suddenly during
the forenoon yesterday, and early in
the afternoon those in attendance an
nounced that death was imminent.
Similar attacks had been resisted with
the aid of the pope's win power, but
depression over the clash of arms in
Europe initiated against another re-
coyery.
At 10 o'clock last night the pontiff
experienced an attack of coughing that
greatly distressed him. He could not
move in bed without assistance, and
the struggle he made to breathe was
painful to witness. AS the supreme
moment approached, the coughing
ceased and the restlessnes which the
doctors had been unable to relieve
disappeared. The features of the pa
tient which had given evidence of his
pain, resumed normal expression
except for the pallor which increased.
The papal secretary of state, Car
dlnal Merry del Val; Cardinals Fer
rata. Cagiano and Bisleti. the pope's
two sisters, and physicians who were
at the bedside recognized the calm
preceding death. DR.. Marchiafava, his
hand on the pontiff's pulse, turned to-
ward the papal secretary, who was
kneeling, and shook his head. Car
dinal Merry del Val understood and
covered his face with his hands.
The two sisters and the pope sec
retaries could not restrain their sobs
and their voices seemed to bring
back the pontiff from the state OF
comma into which he had lapsed-
His eyes opened and his lips moved,
and it was plain that he was making
an effort to impart final blessing
For a moment it seemed that dissolu.
ton had taken place and then the
| lips moved again.
Together in one; all things in
Christ" he whispered.
The physician bent over the bed
listening to a heart that was still
'It is all over,' he said, and rever
entity kissed the pontiff's hand.
In turn the others did the same
Afterward they intoned proyers fol

CHANCE OF POWER
Clause in Interstate Trade Bill
Might Handicap Executives
Seeking Reelection.

WASHINGTON, Feb. s.-Reduc-
ton OF the power of the President to
help himself TO another term by the
use OF the data obtained by the Blu
reau Of Corporations, was the reason
given by preventative Sims. OF
Tennessee, at the House Interstate
Commerce Commission hearing to-
day for the publicity clause in the
pending interstate trade commission
bill.
Seth Low, of New YORK, president
OF the National Civic Federation. had
been protesting against the wholesale
publicity which the bill would secure.
He wanted the Attorney General or
the President alone authorized TO
make public any facts as to business
methods.
Our Chief Executive has great
powers" said Representative Sims,
and some Of them have had a desire
10 succeed themselves in Office. I am
afraid that some of them might be led
by the desire to make public informa-
ton regarding certain corporations
for political purposes in response to
public clamor'
And If the executive does not dis
crimlnate for political purposes" re-
marked Chairman Adamson, bad
men will accuse him OF II anyway"
Mr., Low presented bill drafted by
Professor jeremiah jerks, of Column

economists, providing a scheme of
gathering informs ton as to the bust =
