RACE FOR CONGRESS IN NINTH DISTRICT
 TAXES ON NEW LIFE
Candidates Are Putting Their Views Before the Voters and Lining
 Up for Fray

-1announcement of the platform of Charles E. Rice and the continued ac- tivity of Thomas J. Judge the race for Congress from this district is taking on
 new life.
 Congressman George Huddleston, who is seeking reelection, has also issued statement saying it will probably be inn
 possible for him to return to the district. However, it would hot be surprising should the incumbent manage to get away from Washington and spend sometime in
 the district prior to the primary in May. MT. Rice, in his formal statement, deals at length with all the questions,
 both domestic and foreign, with which the government is confronted He declares in favor of President Wilson, against mill itarism and for preparedness, for further improvements on the Warrior and other inland navigable streams, and for the preservation of all legitimate interests of both labor and capital. MT. Rice has all ready started his campaign among the voters of the county.
 Congressman Huddleston recently has mailed out many thousands of packages of garden and flower seed, as well as a vast number of publications of various kinds He invoked democratic precedent l in his request that he be reelected for another term, and also said: q also have the advantage of not hav- ing been connected with the recent Ala
 bama legislature, either as member or
 lobbyist"
 his opponents, MT. Judge having been the representative of this county in the senate, and MT. Rice having been active in shaping legislation all during the ses-
 sion.
 In a reply to this statement by MT. Hud- dleston, MT. Judge calls the attention of the congressman to the fact that his at tack on the legislature does not reach him, since he, as senator from Jefferson, was member of the minority faction. He asks MT. Huddleston if he intends to
 impugn the patriotism and wisdom of the prohibition majority. Senator Judge calls on NIr. Huddleston to make any fair just and true criticism of his record as a
 member of the senate minority.
 In a letter which Senator Judge is-
 sued yesterday he said:
 'I would vote with my democratic col leagues on questions involving the integ- rity of the democratic party and not with and for republicans and their poli- 1 cies, thereby destroying my usefulness 1 Concerning MT. Huddlestons plea for a second term matter of democratic i precedent, MT. Judge said
 Should my opponent, who ignores dem
 ocratic precedent in office, invoke demo- cratic precedent to get office? This is a new district composed of only Jefferson
 county. Under democratic precedent a new district is an open district l Mr. Judge has already started a per- sonal canvass among the voters of the 1 district. which he will continue until the 1 primary. In addition, he expects to make ] a number of addresses to the voters on 1 the issues of the campaign before the 1 date of the primary.

Not a Bite of
 Breakfast Until
 You Drink Water Says a glaas of hot water and phosphate prevents illness
 and keeps us fit.

Just as coal, when it burns leaves be- hind certain amount of incombustible material in the form of ashes, so the food and drink taken day after day leaves in the alimentary canal 8 certain amount of indigestible material, which If not completely eliminated from the system each day, becomes food for the millions of bacteria which infest the bowels. From this mass of leftover waste, toxins and ptomain-like poisons are formed and sucked into the blood.
 Men and women who can't get feel : ing right must begin to take inside baths. Before eating breakfast each morning drink glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phos- phate in it to wash out of the thirty feet of bowels the previous days ac- emulation of poisons and toxins and to keep the entire alimentary canal clean, pure and fresh.
 Those who are subject to sick head ache, colds, biliousness constipation. others who wake up with bad taste, foul breath, backache, rheumatic stiffness, or have a sour, gassy stomach after meals, are urged to get 8 quarter pound of limestone phosphate from the drug store and begin practicing internal sanitation, This will cost very little. but is suffic : tent to make anyone an enthusiast on the subject.
 Remember, inside bathing is more inn portant than outside bathing, because the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, causing poor health, while the bowel pores do. Just as soap and hot water cleanses, sweetens and freshens the skin, so hot water and limestone phosphate act on the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels.--Adv.

VOTE IS IN SIGHT ON
 ARMY INCREASE BILL
 IN THE HOUSE TODAY
tContinuea frem Page one,

however, is the vital element of the whole army plan proposed. It is the
 military pay provision, under which the bill is expected to produce force of 425, 900 National Guardsmen within five years as a substitute for the admin istration's continental army proposal. The section had been read when the House adjourned and Representative Gardner, republican of Massachusetts, presented an amendment proposing to substitute for it the federal volunteer provisions of the Chamberlain Senate bill. The amendment will be debated an hour tomorrow under an agreement reached by Representatives Hay and Gardner
 Another important section remain ing is that authorizing construction of a plant to produce atmospheric nitro- gen for use in explosives. It is cer- tain to cause extended debate.
 The effect of the Gardner amendment would be to leave the National Guard federalized in every respect proposed by the bill, but without any payment from the federal treasury except when the nilitiamen were called out for training periods. The provision of the Chamberlain bill which is offered as a SuDSIlIuJe IS DTleI auInOTlZaLlOn or the creation of a force of 261,000 fed eral volunteers by congressional dis tricts, along the lines proposed by the proponents of the continental army. While the amendment has little chance of adoption the debate is cer- tain to focus attention on weaknesses S of the National Guard system and bring out the reasons which impelled
 former Secretary Garrison to advocate the continental plan and resignation from the cabinet when it was rejected by the House committed
 MAY BE USED FOR STRIKES The House refused twice today to insert in the bill provisions designed

Representative Emercon in sisted that these men, who had given years to training guardsmen, were en- titled to high rank when the troops were used for war Representative Hay declared that adoption of the amend ment would mean the destruction Of the bill, since the efficiency of the army depended upon the efficiency of it's higher officers.
 The most important amendment placed in the bill was suggested by Representative Hayden, democrat of Arizona. It provides that when regi-

ment of National Guard is sent to the front, a fourth battalion be organized from the National Guard reserve to take the regiments place and to train recruits for the fighting lines. Under this system if the entire guard were called out a force one- third it's total strength would immediately take it's place at home to maintain order, secure and train recruits and insure that the fighting regiment would be kept up to full strength without being hampered by 1evies of raw recruits. It is possible a similar system will be devised for the regular regiments.
