TAGGART TAKES
WIND OUT OF
WATSON SAILS
Booze Announcement Shows
Up G. o. P. Efforts to Dis
credit Him.
PUTS 'EM IN A CORNER

Thomas Taggart Democratic nominee
for the United States Senate, exploded
q bomb under the managers Of JameS
f. Watson, Republican candidate Tor re
election, yesterday when he announced
= that he would use his influence in the
:. Senate to support the volstead act as II
now stands.
The Watson managers have been cir
culating false statements in Indiana for
several weeks to the effect that Mr..
Taggart represented the liquor interests
and would lead in an effort TO under
mine the prohibition law IN event OF
national Democratic success.
Friends Of the Democratic nominee,
who know that Mr.. Taggart has for
years been an enemy of the liquor traf-
ne as it has been conducted in the past,
paid little attention to the efforts OF
the Republicans to array the drys OF
the state against him
Mr. Taggart waited until opportunity
came to give expression to his views on
this subject and then he came forward
with frank pledge that will either force
Senator Watson to admit that he and
his friends were four-hushing with the
drys or that he is not nearly as dry
as Mr.. Taggart-
IN ANSWER TO LETTER
FROM CRAWFORDSVILLE.
The statement from Mr. Taggart, rela-
tive to the prohibition law, was In the
form of a letter to Mrs. Jane LivengoOd,
3O7 Meadow avenue, Charlottesville, and
reads as follows:
Ny Dear Mrs Ldvengood:
I have your communication OF Sept.
13, signed by yourself and twenty
nine other ladies Of crawfordsville,
Ind, in which you PROFOUND to me
the following question, towit:
'eWtll you, If elected TO the United
States Senate, use your vote and your
influence for the effective enforce
ment OF the present prohibition law,
honestly and in good faith, without
any increase in the alcoholic content
Of permitted beverages and without
any weakening of any other OF its
provisions
Il affords me great pleasure, dear
madam. to answer this question with
y emphasis, Yes"
Now, having answered your ques-
tion frankly, may I suggest to you
and TO all the women voters OF In
diana, and especially to the mothers
Of Indiana, who love their sons more
than they love themselves, that the
paramount issue in this campaign
is the League Of Nations, and that
the women Of Indiana ought not to
allow Republican politicians to blind
them TO this fact. Not only Amer
lea, but the leasing countries across
the seas are expecting the women Of
the United States to support with
fine intelligence the League OF Ma
tions, an issue of worldwide import
ance, having for its object peaceful
homes rather than battlehelds for our
boys. Respectfully yours,
T. TAGGART.

If BACK HURTS

Fl ush Your Kidneys Occasionally
if You Eat Meat

No man or woman who eats meat regi-

which clogs the kidney pores SO they

tism, headaches, liver trouble, nervous
ness, constipation, dizziness, sleepiessness

The moment you feel n dull ache IN the
kidneys or your back hurts, or If the
urine IL cloudy, offensive, full of sedi-
fncnt, irregular of passage or attended
by a sensation Of scalding, get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable
pharmacy and take a tablespoonful IN
a glass Of water before breakfast for
few DAYS and your kidneys will then net

HARDING IS EXPECTED

Informal Call at White House Will

Washington. Dec 3.-Prcsident Viii
OH has allowed it to be known that he
will be very glad to receive President
elect Harding during the latter's stop
over in Washington next week. President
elect Harding has indicated he would be
very glad to call on the President, SO
the probabilities are the two Will get to-
gether in the White House.
That it will be anything more than
formal visit is doubted by everybody
who knows anything about the manner
in which the minds of statesmen in cx-
alted places work.

cepted no courtesics from the Wilson

The idea Of these two men sitting
down for long confidential, important
discussion of the League of Nations and
does not square with either their person.
alities or the situation. Mr. Harding knows
exactly what the President thinks about
the League If President Wilson does not
know how his destined successor stands
on that question he at least knows that
the successor is dead against his own
view
The failure Of the President to con
gratulate Senator Harding on his election
indicates that there is no special cordiality
that would ease the awkwardness of an
extended conference Senator Harding
and President Wilson have never been
particular friends that there was any
i'll will on either side, but their orbits
did not coincide.
Another reason that the wise men
see TO prevent any real discussion Of
state questions is that one or the other
of these men would be in the position of
advising the other. and the etiquette of
whether the outgoing or the incoming
President should be the mentor has
never been settled So it is pretty wcll
settled that if Senator Harding comes 10
the White House next week the meeting
will consist of few formal greetings
No Prsident-elect has called on q
President so far as the memory of the
White House attaches goes, with the ex-
ception OF William II. Taft. but Mr.. Taft
was an intimate of President Roosevelt
and Mr. Roosevelt's 5 own choice as
his successor. Rarely in modern times
have Presidents been succeeded by friends,
in fact the rule has b cen the other way.

the day Congress convenes. He has In
dicated that he will appear at the Senate,
but this docs not mean necessarily that he
will take his seat. All he has to do Is to
appear in the cloak rooms. Incidentally
the report via wireless press dispatch that
he contemplated making speech next
Tuesday from his place on tho floor has
put the Republicans up In the air. II
he appears he naturally will receive an
ovation, but his responding to it by an
address is another matter. He could, If
he was recognozcd by the chair, speak,
but the leaders refuse to believe he will do
anything so out of key, Tuesday, which
according to the present plan, is to be MIR.
Harding's only full day at the Capitol,
President Wilson will send in his last
regular message, and the idea of the Presl-
dent-elect slipping in message OF his
own almost gives the professors of the
Senatorial proper thing mysteries.

1920 BULL FIGHTS

MENICO CITY, October IS
Twenty-Five thousand persons, in
GLIDING several hundred trade eX
cursionists from Houston and Ell
Paso. Tex, witnessed a bull fight
in Plaza del Toros here yesterday.
The exhibition marked the open
ing of an ambitious season. during
which five of the worlds best
known toreadors will appear here.
Juan Silveti. a Mexican. and
Angel Fernandez (Angclete).
Spaniard. killed six bulls during
the fight. which lasted an hour
and a quarter. Both won en-
thusiastic applause by dispatch
ing five bulls without a miss. al
though Angelete narrowly escaped
injury when he slipped and fell
while playing the fourth bull.
The merrymakers were aided by
a modification of Provisional Pres
ident de la Huerta's recent order
making Mexico City dry from
Saturday night to Monday morn
ing. Relaxation of the restrictions
came after nearly 1000 owners of
cafes had gone before the court
and asked for writ of super
sedas. which, had it been granted,
would have served as an injunc-
ton against official interference
with normal business. Instead of
granting writS. the judges desig-
mated scores of places in which
drinks might be served.
