OLD PRESCRIPTION
FOR WEAK KIDNEYS

"a medical preparation like Dr.. Kill
mer's Swamp-Root, that has real cura-
tive value almost sells itself. Like an
endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited to those who are in need
of it.
DR.. Ki!mer's Swamp-Root is physi-
clans prescription. 1t has been tested
for years and has brought results to
countless numbers VINO have suffered.
The success of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root is due to the fact that it ful1lls
almost every wish in overcoming kid
per, liver and bladder diseases, cor
rects urinary troubles and neutralizes
the uric acid which causes rheuma-
tism.
Do not suffer. Get a bottle of
Swamp-Root from any druggist now.
Start treatment today.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamtion, N. Y, for
a sample bottle. When writing be sure

ARE READY TO UPHOLD
THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE
TILLMAN THINKS PRESIDENT
HAS MORE SENSE THAN ALL
THE LITTLE ONES COMBINED

The State.
Washington, Fb. 25.-From interviews
given The States correspondent here
tonight by several members of South
Carolina delegation in congress when
asked for an expression of opinion on
the armed merchantmen controversy
there would appear to be almost prac-
teal unanimity among those who gave
their views for supporting the presl-
dent.
Senator Tillman said: Il certainly
will! support the president. He has more
sense than all the other little fellows
combined. I think he has patriotism
enough to satisfy any one; furthermore
I don't see why they don't let him
alone.''
Senator E. D. Smith said: II will
support the president until he has ex-
hausted every known resource at his
command to prevent war and until every
remedy has been fully exhausted. Until
that time shall arrive I do not think it
wise for congress to interfere"
Representative Nichols said: AT
this time I have not altogether made up
nv mind and for the presnt l would
prefer to have nothing to say on the
scbject."
Congressman Lever said: Il think
the less interference by congress with
the president at this most critical period
in thes diplomatic negotiations, the
more likelihood there is of the president
being able to preserve the peace. When
the president has exhausted every dlplo-
matte effort and nothing can save the
country from war except the passage
of some such resolution as is proposed
in that event it will be time for the
congress to act"
Congressman Whaley said: 'fThis is
such an important matter that I do not
care tonight to give an opinion offhand.
Tomorrow after I have had time to go
over the matter, will be glad to ex-
oress nv views concerning the situa-
tion." .4..A4

niliations would certainly follow, and
the whole fine fabric of international
law might crumble under our hands
piece by piece What we are contend
ing for in this matter is of the very
essence of the things that have made
America sovereign nation. She can not
Weld them without conceding her own

Il am speaking, my dear senator, in
deep solemnity, without heat, with
clear consciousness of the high re-

sincere and devoted friend. If we

as friends, but where issues so momen-

The president wrote his letter during
the afternoon, shutting himself up in his
study while congressional leaders vain
ly attempted to get him on the tele-
phone to tell him OF developments at
the capitol and arrange for the call OF
the house leaders. He continued to
write after telephone confernces with
cabinet officers and other close advisers.
His decision was to end all speculation
as to what the position of the govern
ment was and to let congress and the
country know that the administration
believed the United States could do
nothing but stand behind the right of its
citizens to the freedom of the seas,

young man, was for some time a clerk
in one of the courts of justice. In those
days his temper sometimes got the bet

his wit saved him from disgrace, This
was when questioning witness the lat
