from its neighbor. and is advertising

tions in, or are in the petition
stage.
The announcement that Topeka s
bidding for a place on the old Santa
Fe trail, has renewed the rivalry be.

Springtime always brings with it joy
and distress. The distress is in the
form of catarrh, neuralgia, rheumatic
pains, constipation, inactive kidneys
and usually a feverish, sluggish leth-
argy that is hard to throw off.
Do you remember how grandmother
fed you sulphur and molasses every
spring to purify the blood? 1t was a
good, d-fashioned, but nauseous
remedy. Now you can take sulphur,
cream of tartar and herbs in tablet
form. A better remedy. easy and
pleasant to take in Sulpherb Tablets.
Sold by all druggists. A laxative, blood
purifier of unequalled merit for those
who are constipated and suffering in
any way from such pent-up poisons
Each package is guaranteed to give
wonderfully satisfactory results. Be
sure you get Sulpherb Tablets (not
sulphur tablets.) ADV.

REPUBLICANS
TRYING TO BREAK
The Democratic Column on the
Peace Treaty Reservations
in Order to
HAVE THEM ADOPTED

washington, d. c., Feb. 23-Pos-
slbllltles of a substantial break in the
Democratic Peace Treaty ranks in
the Senate impelled influential Dem
acratic senator's to owe today for a
caucus to discuss a possible change
In party policy, and revived the
hopes of the Republicans that the
treaty might yet be ratified with the
Republican reservations adopted at
the last session of Congress.
The movement fon a Democratic
caucus may bring into the open, it's
sponsors believe, the dissatisfaction
that has smouldered in some Demo-
cratic quarters since the President
sent his memorable letters to the eau
Gus of November IS, asking that the
Senators of his party vote against
ratification or the basis of the Re-
publican reservations. The seven
Senators who disregarded his advice
have been active constantly in their
effort to dissuade others from the
stand then taken, and it has been an
open secret that their move coupled
with current political developments,
has met with some success.
But among both Democrats and
Republicans it is realized that the
endeavor to break down Democratic
resistance still has long way to go
If it is to succeed. Sixty-four votes
are required to ratify the treaty and
although thirty-four Republicans vot
ed for ratification in November the
support of only thirty. That leaves
thirty-four to be delivered by the
Democratas an even dozen more than
the figure which represents the peak
of the Republican claims today.
In the belief that time is fighting
on their side the plan of the Repub-
lican leaders is to first clear away
collateral issues of the treaty dis
agreement when the subject comes
again before the Senate probably to-
considered in the revision being un
dertaken on the Senate floor is the
troublesome qualifications of Article
Ten against which the President ha.
directed his principle criticism, but
the Republicans expect to ask that il
be laid aside until all the others have
been acted on
Meantime it is pointed out, q
| Democratic caucus may have deve
oped the real strength of the move
J ment among Democratic Senators tt
break away form past policy of resis
| ance and put the tretay through
] Should majority of the forty-sever
I Democrats vote in tn ecaucus tC
| mkea such a move, it is expected By
| the Republican that the effect woul
be to bring over the votes needed fol

Efforts to Reach and Explore Cliff
Cities.

Salt Lake City, Utah, Feb. 24.-Ef-
forts to reach and exprote ruins of
ancient cliff cities, known to exist
in Zion canyon, Utah's newly Gre
ated national park, in the southwest
ern part of the state, will be made
during the coming summer by a.
party of archeaolOgists and geolog-
lists, several of whom are attached to
the University of Utah here.
The cliff cities never have been
visited because of their inaccessible
locations on the hight bluffs. 1t is
hoped however, that this difficulty
will be overcome by the lowering of
the explorers from the tops of bluffs
by ropes. Long range photographs
taken show that the cities are large
and their adobe houses are clearly
outlined and appear to be in perfect
preservation.

MODIFIED RAILROAD
REORGANIZATION
Bill Passed Senate Last Night
and Now Goes to the
President
FOR HIS ENDORSEMENT

Washington, d. c., Febm. 24-The
Railroad Reorganization bill which
passed the Senate last night by a
vote of AT to IT following similar
action in the House Saturday con-
tinued to occupy much of the atten-
tion of the Union officials and the
general committee who were here in
person to consider President Wilson's
plan for the settlement of the wage
controversy.
Washington, Feb. 23.-By vote
of nearly three to one, the Senate
last night passed and sent to the
President the modified railroad re-
organization bill under which the
carriers Of the country will attempt
to adjust themselves to conditions
arising with the end of government
control.
Thirty-tWo Republicans joined
with fifteen Democrats in voting for
adoption of the conference report,
while three Republicans and four
teen Democrats comprised the sew
enteen voting against it. There was
never any doubt as to what the
Senate would do, in view of the
wide margin by which the Cummins
bill, more drastic than the compro-
mise measure, was passed. The bill
will go Immediately to President
Wilson and the general opinion
around the capitol was that he
would sign it.
During the five hours of debate,
led by Chairman Cummins, of the
interstate commerce committee,
Senators expressed varying opinions
as to how the public and the rail-
roads would fare under the bill,
which was warmly defended and just
as warmly attacked. But the in
tense interest which characterized
proceedings Saturday in the House
was lacking, frequent quorum calls
being necessary to get members in
the chamber. Around six o'clocl
the patience of the Senate apparent
ly was exhausted after the long sea
son of speech-making and insisten
demands for vote cut short the
