The greatest personal victory yet
won In this Democratic convention was
scored by young Filipino ~ the name
of Jose r. Melencio. He has charge OF
the Philippine Publicity Dnrsau at
Washington @
He is only twenty-six years sid and
received his education In the public
schools Of the Philippines under
American teachers, as he proudly
boasted--and at Georgetown. d q
He is remarkably promising young
man.
Speaking with grace, using the best
language and without q trace Of sm-
barrassment he presented the claim
of the Filipinos to Independence. The
audience was astonished at the
strength Of his argument, the skill
with which he marshaled his facts and
the high tone of his speech. He capti-
vated everyone and committeemen and
visitors paid him the compliment OF
rising and cheering when he concluded
his plea.
When one of the committees asked
him some questions he returned 70 the
platform and answered them with 40
much logic and precision ns Il he had
taken weeks to prepare his answer. II
was remarkable triumph.

BIG DOCKET LOOMS
BEFORE D. c. COURT
Supreme Chambers Face 30
I Per Cent Increase in
. Cases.

When the Supreme Court of the
District of Columbia convenes for the
fall term, October 1, it will face the
largest docket of cases in it's history.
Despite the strenuous efforts of the
Justices last year they were unable to
dispose of one-half of the cases ready
for TRIAL in October, 1919, and the
new litigation has swelled the num-
Der of cases so that the new calendar
contains about 80 per cent increase
over the number pending for trial at
4. this time last year.
The criminal dockets are so con-
gested that it will probably occupy
the time of two justices for several
weeks to relieve the crowded condi-
ton of tina, Jail. In addition there are
many mu71er cases to be tried and
charges on which the accused are at
liberty under bail. Several of these
cases are of national Importance.
Many Law Cases.
The volume of business before the
courts is especially noticeable in the
law cases. Assigned for trial in the
two circuit courts are 925 cases, as
compared with 1877 at the beginning OF
the last court year in October, 1918.
These do not include appeals from
the Municipal Court, which show
total of 333 case 8, making an aggre-
gate of 1883 la41 cases penang ana
ready for trial. AT the commence
ment of the previous court year the
total was only 9iN cases.
The divorce and other equity cases
have not kept pace with the increase
of law business in the court, but the
equity docket this year is larger than
in October, 1919.
$50 Equi t1y Cases.
The new equity calendar will con-
tain about $50 ca SEES, as compared
with 319, when the calendar for last
year was printed.
A large portion of the time of one
of the equity judges lis taken up with
the consideration and signing of the
great number of prob ate and admin
istration orders from the Probate
Court and the other Judge is called
on to preside in the Bankruptcy
Court, and at the hume 'rous jury ses-
sions for the condem alton of land
for street and alley extensions.
This crowded conditi ON of the court
dockets is regarded as convincing
proof of the pressing need for two
additional justices if the business of
the courts is ever to bse brought up
to date,

Membership of the United States in

COST,

If Present Rate Continues.
Expenditures Will Equal
Last Congress Figures.

Ordinary disbursements by the
| Treasury Department so far this fiscal
year haYe been on the average of
s15,ooo,000 for each business day,
which if continued will just about alb
sorb the s4,S6o. 900, 900 appropriated by
the last Congress to meet the expenses
=, of the government between July 1
| last and June 80 next.
The latest daily statement of the
Treasury shows ordinary disburse-
ments since the beginning of the pres
ent fiscal year have amounted to some
SIS 100000 for each of the seventy-one
business days included. Ordinary re-
ceipts the same period amounted to
81, $4,000 1000, leaving an excess of
100000. This balance f1uctuates
from day to day, however. as the dis
smaller than the receipts.
Less Than Half Last Years.
| Disbursements this year are less
than half of what they were for the
corresponding period last year, when
the total was 1921, ISL 900, and the
receipts last year were but S1,515,255,-
900, creating a deficit of $7O6,296 900,
or about s10,000,O00 a day.
The increased cost of running the
government today is made evident by
comparison of the foregoing figures
with those of 1914. when ordinary dis
| bursements were only a little in ex-
cess Of 100000 day.
Many things have contributed to
| multiply these figures, not the least
of which is the fact that the govern
| ment is now paying interest on a debt
of some $4,000, 100000 contracted as
a result of the world war

she began taking it few weeks ago.
! Mrs. McLain has been associated
with the Salvation Army nearly ali

work both in England and theUnited

of charity in Portland for the past
twenty-five years and is highly res

her.
While discussing Tanlac, which has
been so beneficial to her, Mrs. Nc
Lain, said.
Il am deeply indebted to Tanlac
for the good it has done me and will
! always praise it. My Improvements
has been so great that my friends
have noticed it and have remarked
about how web | look.
"But before began taking Tanlac
| was in an awful rundown condi-
ton as a result of a serious opera
ton three years ago, the effect of
which | had not been able to over
come. My appetite was very poor,
and having to live on the very light
est of foods on account of a weak
stomach and bad digestion, | became
extremely weak and nervous. The
work of preparing breakfast for the
family tired me so / would have to
lie down and rest, and at times | was
so nervous that | was almost frantic.
| also had the worst kind of pains
through my chest and just felt per-
fectly awful.
Zone day l was looking over the
paper and come across a testimonial
that described my case so well that
decided to try Tanlac, and | can
truthfully say began feeling better
right from the start and my pains
disappeared with the first bottle. l
have taken four bottles now and seem
to be in just perfect condition. My
nerves are steady and normal and |
have strength to do my housework
without feeling all tired out like I
did before, my appetite has returned
and | can eat and enjoy my three
hearty meals a day and am feeling
like an entirely different person. Tan
lac is one medicine that verybody
