Beach Patrolman Advises
Treatment with Sloan's

After exposure to dampness and
cold, and after hard exercise, mus

A beach patrolman at Atlantic

treatment the quickest and most
effective way to take out the stiff
ness and pain:
Just pat on little of Sloan's
Eminent. Don't rub. It's the
liniment - not the rubbing = that
helps. You'll get relief right away.
I've tried all sorts of other things.

Sloan's."
Hundreds of letters like this tell
Of the wonderful relief from mus
cular pain that Sloan's gives,
Sloan's gets results because it
doesn't just deaden pain, it gets

OLD ILLINOIS DEMOCRAT SOUNDS
WARNING ON OUSTING OF SMITH

CHICAGO, Dec. 90 (AP)-From
three sides, the tangled skein of
Illinois junior senatorship was
hauled back into the political
cauldron today.
Edward Dunno, former governor
of Illinois and a Democrat, eau
toned members of his party in the
Senate that if they voted not to
seat Frank L. Smith, they would
deal severe blow to the doctrine
OF states rights and might Jeo-
pardize the status of their own col
leagues from southern states.
Colonel Smith, who has not talk
ed for publication since Governor
Len Small appointed him a fort
night ago to succeed the late SEN
ator William B. Mckinley, was un-
derstood to have conferred here
with Senator Charles S. Deneen,
senior senator from Illinois.
Ashurst Remains Firm
Senator Ashurst, Democrat, Ari-
ZOna, made it known that he had
telegraphed Governor Small ask
ing information on the statement
in which Small announced Smith S
interim appointment, Indicating
that if Small based the appoint
ment on Smiths previous election
Winslow daily mail., 1926-12-30

to succeed Mckinley, Senate Dem
ocrats would take the position that
the same arguments could be in
vOked against seating Smith for
the short term as will be brought
to bear against his admission for
his elective term. Small said at
Springfield that he had not re-
ceived the Ashurst communication.
He started for Chicago for several
conferences, but did not say wheth-
er he plans to meet Smith here.
Dunno took the position that the
Senate may eXpel Smith by two
thirds vote, after seating him but
that if it declined to accept his
credentials it would set a "revo-
lutionary" precedent fraught with
danger to the Democratic party.
Dunno Points Peril.
'The great peril 1 see to the
Democratic party" said Dunno,
would be that following this pre-
cedent, Republican majority
could refuse to recognize the Gre
dentials of any senator from a
southern state, where the four
teenth amendment to the constitu-
ton gives the negro the right to
vote, alleging as a reason that

nounced tonight on the eve Of
new grand jury investigation into
the evangelist's mysterious disap-
pearance.
Keyes declared the charges Of
conspiring to obstruct justice and
subornation of perjury probably
would be dropped due to "the col
lapse of the testimony of the prin-
cipal Witness" Mrs. Wiseman. This
witness, who has confessed perpe-
trating a Carmel Miss x" hoax
in the case, the district attorney
tonight characterized as a turn
coat and "pcrjurer," saying she
had told a different story every
day"
Whole Case MuddIed
"The Mcpherson case is now in
such a muddled state that a con
-xietieA-4is almost impossible, ana
the charges probably will be with
drawn" Keyes said. SIe was un-
able to say when such a move
would be taken. Roland Rich
! Woolley, formerly the personal
attorney of Mrs. Mcpherson and
Mrs. Wiseman will be taken before
the county grand jury tomorrow,
the prosecutor said.
Woolley charged tonight that
new investigation of the McPhtr-
son case by the district attorneys
office was a frameup intended to
bring about dismissal of conspir-
acy charges against the eyangel-
list.
