Bear Names of Naval Heroes

WASHINGTON, March 16.-The
names of Porter, Tucker, Conyngham.
WadsWorth, Jacob Jones and VAIN
wright, prominent in the annals of
American naval history, have been
selected by Secretary Daniels for the
six new torpedo boat destroyers now
building.
In the case of the Porter, both Ad-
miral Porter, of Civil War fame and
his father, Captain David Porter, who
public, will be honored.
The wainwright was so called in
honor of three men, Jonathan May
hew Wainwright, killed in action in
1862; a son of the same, killed in an
expedition against pirates on the coast
of Mexico in 1879, and Richard Vain
wright, commander of the flagship
Hartford under Rear Admiral Fafra-
gut at the time of his death.
Captain Samuel Tucker saw distin-
guished service both during the Revo-
lutionary War and in the war of 1912.
Captain Gustavus Conyngham was a
plucky sea fighter of Revolutionary
days.
The Wadsworth was named after
Lieutenant Henry Wadsworth, who
lost his life in the war with Tripoli
and Lieutenant Alexander S. Wads-
worth, who served on the Constitution
in her famous fight with the Guer-
riere.
Captain Jacob Jones, for whom the
sixth destroyer is named, was in COM
mand of the Wasp when she captured
the British sloop of war Frolic.

ATLANTA. Ca, March 16.-Pulpit
utterances favoring a new trial for
Leo H. Frank, under sentence of death
for the murder here Of Mary Phagan,
fourteen years old employee of pen
Gil factory of which Frank was super

First Christian Church. and Dr. A. r.
Holderly, pastor of the Moore Me-
mortal Church. and Rev. Julian S.
Rodgers, pastor Of the East Atlanta

believed conditions warranted a new
trial.

'CASCARETS" FIX
SOUR STOMACHS
Sluggish Bowels cause Gases,
indigestion and Food
fermentation.
Get a ten-cent box now.

Get a ten-cent box now
That awful sourness, belching of
acid and foul gases; that pain in the
pit of the stomach, the heartburn,
nervousness, nausea, bloating after
eating, dizziness and sick headache,
means a disordered stomach, which
cannot be regulated until you remove
the cause. 1t isn't your stomach's
fault. Your stomach is as good as
any.
Try Cascarets; they immediately
cleanse the stomach, remove the
sour, undigested and fermenting food
and foul gases; take the excess bile
from the liver and carry off the con-
stipated waste matter and poison
from the bowels. Then your stomach
trouble is ended. A Cascaret tonight
will straighten you out by morning
a ten-cent box from any drug store
will keep your stomach sweet; liver
and bowels regular for months. Don't
forget the children-their little in
sides need a good, gentle cleansing
too.

agents of the Methodist Book Con-
Germ, whose book, Modern Thought
and Traditional Faith was attacked
by the New Jersey Conference of the

the city last evening from Cincinnati.
At his home, 800 Riverside drive, he
said:
1.-The matter has been mulling over
in New Jersey for a long time, and
7 expected the action that was taken.
However, ! am not worrying about
my book, because I have between
three and four hundred unsolicited
letters from scholars in the church
praising it. There is no merit to the
charges and no proof has been pro-
duced to substantiate them"

LEGISLATIVE APATHY

The general apathy which prevails
throughout Nevada this year rela
tive TO legis alive candidates
is striking'y noticeable, In practl
cal!y every county in the state there
appears 10 be few who aspire 10
represent their respective commun-
tiles in the legislature which CON
venes at Carson City next January
In this respect Lincoln county
is not alone.
There is a popular demand. how
ever for good material The com
plain is h ard everywhere in the
state that TOO many have been
sent to Carson to make laws who
have no real interest in the vel
fare Of the state or the counties
which they are supposed to repre-
sent Too many have been members
o. the legis allure who are NOT tax
payers and whose chief aim has been
10 work some private graft and then
leave the state for good Such per
sons will not do; they are not real
citizens in the true sense OF the
word and Of all the places they
should not occupy. membership in
the Legislature is most important.
The legislature makes the laws. fix.
es rates OF taxation and provides
ways for the expenditure OF public
funds. which is collected from those
who pay the taxes Is il safe 10
elect men TO the legislature who
pay no taxes? What do they care
Just so long as they draw their sal
aries and have oppo tunity to work
for private gain.
NeVada's legislature should be com
prised of men who are property own
ers and who have made reasonably
good success in the management OF
their own business affairs for no
one can be expected TO make a sue
cess in the management of the bus
mess affairs OF a great state like
Nevada. unless he has shown eyi-
dence of success in conducting his
own business affairs.
Voters should disregard politics !
and send TO the legislature only men
VINO are property owners and who |
have real interest in the welfare oil |
the state; men so far above re
proaeh that they will not stoop to \
vile political rascality
Let us hope thst Lincoln county |
VIII have representatives, OF that 4
Kind in the next legislature.
