SECOND VETO IS
FILED BY governor
He Disapproves Of Bill That
Would Have Interfered
With Courts.

CHARLESTON, Feb. 25.-Govern-
or Cornwell has filed with the secre-
tary OF state his veto and reasons for
such action on the Sanders bill, pass
ed late in the regular session, which
removed from trial courts the right
to direct a verdict for the defendant
in cases where the plaintiff failed to
make out a case.
He declared the effect of the bill
to be an invasion. of the rights of the
courts of the state.

time immemorial tho decision of the
Judge in the trial court has been final.

court has held control of the proceed

verdict Of the jury when contrary to
the law and the evidence.
"Out OF this power has grown the
right to exclude the evidence Of the
plaintiff and direct verdict. The en-
ltire tendency Of the times and also
the evolution of procedure in the
courts are toward simplif1cation OF
procedure and economy of both time
and money. The right of a court to
direct a verdict is necessary result

The governor quoted decisions both

Supreme courts to uphold his conten-

shipment to South America will in
all probability soon be available. 1t
is stated by the board that Dutch
shipping amounting to $4,000 tons,
less bunker space, is already avail
able in United States ports or on the
way here and other ships are being
assigned.
"In addition to six Dutch ships al
ready in American ports, Holland re-
Gently sent five ships, the Brunswyk,
Delta, Minerva, Moerdyk and Ter
schelling in the expectation Of lifting
cargoes Of grain in the United States.
But due to the congestion of grain
loading facilities, it has been decided
by Holland to send these ships to
South America for grain and the War
Trade Board has facilitated the move
ment by the granting Of bunker coal,
not only for the trip to South Amer
lea, but for the return journey With
the allotment of other tonnage, the
merchants in Brazil, Argentina, Uru-
quay and other South American
points will be able to secure without
further delay the goods which have
been purchased and stored here and

Physicians are warning the public
against trifling with colds, Influenza
and grippe. They say that a brisk
calomel purgative, preferably Gallo
tabs, the new and improved calomel
tablet, should be invariably taken at
bed time and repeated the second or
third night, if necessary. In the ear
hest stages, one Calotab is usually
sufficient unless the case is particu-

Physicians say that it is a waste of
time and is dangerous to experiment
with other laxatives, as calomel is
absolutely necessary sooner or later
One Calotab on the tongue at bed
time with q swallow Of water,-that's
all. No salts, no nausea nor the
slightest interference with diet, work
or pleasures. Next morning your
