Led by La Toilette, Following Confirma-
ton of Daniels, Declare They
Will Defy Rules

Washington, April 3.-Nine members
of the Senate, headed by Senator La
Toilette, openly revolted against pro-
ceedings behind closed doors tonight
after an executive session in which
the Senate by a vote of 81 to 81 con-
firmed the nomination Of Winthrop M.
Daniels of New Jersey to be a men,
Der of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission. Senator La Toilette declared
on the floor that he proposed TO defy
the rules of the Senate in the future
and discuss publicly legislation not af-
fecting foreign relations and later it

Effect on Future

The revolt created something of a
sensation and there was much specu-
lation as to what effect it would have
on future executive sessions. The gen.
eral opinion was there would be no
attempt to take action against mem
bers who disregarded the rules of Sc
crecy.
Confirmation of Commissioner Dan
iels concluded a three day fight mark
ed by one of the bitterest debates
heard at the Capitol in years. Both
sides contested determinedly, Mr. Dan
iels' advocates having the support of
President Wilson's well-known desire
that his appointee and personal friend
be confirmed without delay.
Opponents Contentious
Opponents TO the confirmation based
their objection on the ground that Mr..
Daniels views of the values of public
properties were unsound. AS during the
two preceding days, senators continued
to insist that Mr.. Daniels ideas as ex-
pressed in the decision of the New Jer-
sey Public Service Commission, of which
he was chairman, of the Passaic gas rate

Two Points Emphasized

Two salient points were emphasized
in the under current developments of
the day. One was the concerted eff
fort being made by Republican sena-
tors to unite against the Presidents
repeal policy and the other was the
reinforced determination of admins
tration leaders to hear to no compro-
mise on the House bill providing for
fat repeal of toll exemption for Amer
lean ships.
Republicans Solidifying
Among Republican senators who
have been classified as doubtful with
regard to their intentions concerning
the repeal, there is a general tenden-
cy to line up against the President.
Democratic senators who are cham
pioning the Presidents cause assert
that they welcome this movement,
confident that it can have no other
effect than to solidify the Democrats
and aid in assuring success for the
administration.
These Democrats while admitting
that FIVE of their number cannot be
induced to abandon their opposition
to the bill, insist that there is every
indication that all other majority SEN
ators eventually will support the bill.
They also are assured of support for

\ GOOD MEDICINE
 FOR POOR BLOOD
Mrs, Brunson of BeHefontaine, Ohio. Believes Vinol Is the Best Remedy in the World. Her Personal Experience.

. Bellefontaine, Ohio" My blood was
 very poor and was in a weak, nervous,
 rundown condition. I tried different
 medicines without benefit and one day
 my druggist told me about Vinol. In all
 I took four bottles and certainly got the
 results was looking for. It built me up in every way, blood, strength and nerves, and I tell my friends it is the best medicine on earth. Many of
 them have used it and found it so. !" Mrs. EARL BRUNsoN, Bellefontaine, Ohio.
 As long as the blood is impoverished, thin and poor you will be weak, pale and
 tired all the time.
 vinol, our delicious cod liver and iron
 tonic, supplies iron to the blood, puri-
 fes and enriches it, while the cod liver
 clements contained in Vinol creates strength, and rebuilds wasting tissues. l Vinol is not secret nostrum, simply the medicinal elements of the cods' liv- CTS, with the useless nauseating oil elim-
 mated, and tonic iron added. Try bottle
 of Vinol with the understanding that | your money will be returned if it does | not make you stronger, feel younger and 1 give you an added interest in life. Broadway Pharmacy, G. G. Englel ! Norwich, Conn

lures of the near free trade Under wood tarir was it's complete failure to reduce prices. We fancy that the makers of the measure were as much astonished over the outcome of their efforts as they were disappointed. The trouble was due to their faith in the views of the free trade theorists. When the new tariff law was put into effect planners predicted for it. They fondly dreamed it would lower the cost of foreign competition and bring in enough revenue to pay bills. In not a single direction was expectations realized. Weeks before the war was even thought of this was apparent. Prices of the necessities of life went up by leaps and bounds. Not single thing showed enough decline to be of assistance to the pocketbook.- port Post. sE
