FORUM OF THE PEOPLE OPEN TO ALL.
Editor Palladium. It was stated that the lid was tilted by Charlie Hoyt. I want to state that the lid was not tilted to Kennepohl's "knowledge, and as Mr. Hoyt has no "key to the saloon part he could not get the whiskey there. Mr. Hoyt solemnly swore he did not hell this man Dorsey whiskey and as he has always been trustworthy and truthful. I have tio reason to doubt him, but he was found guilty in the city court. The rase was appealed to the circuit court. Further it is stated the officers witnessed a transaction of the sale at Kennepobl's by Charlie Hoyt. Why didn't they make the arrest then and not wait till Dorsey got away from the place? People wonder what is the matter with Richmond because she is going backwards. Well, just study a little bit. Are you paying your police for being stationed at the back doors of the saloons ana arresting farmers and strangers coming to Richmond, who aecidentaly stump their toe or make a strange noise, or is it intended for the officers to keep the peace and protect your property? Kindly get yourself together and you certainly must see. B. A. KBXNEPOIIL.
Arguments Were Begun Today In the Hamilton County Murder Trial.
SWEETHEART ON STAND.
Xoblesville, Ind., Mar. 5. The btate rested last evening in the trial of Jas. W. Hensley of Indianapolis for the murder of Walter MeClintoek last October. Attorney Kittinger, in the opening statement for the defense, said Hensley would be able to prove that he had been called to the MeClintoek home by telephone on the day of the murder on account of the illness of his sweetheart, Miss Mary MeClintoek. He also said Hensley went into the house with the consent of both Mr. and Mrs. MeClintoek, instead of being ordered to stay away by them. He also attempted to show that it was Walter MeClintoek, instead of Enoch, who struck Hensley with a stick of stove wood in the struggle in which the defendant killed the father and eon. Miss Mary MeClintoek, llensiey's former sweetheart, was on the stand nearly all day. Arguments in the case began today.

could easily float. It is 200 miles long, j
and in some places It is forty miles broad. It has an area of over 2,000 square miles, and it shoots off into great rivers with an aggregate length of thousands of miles. Baltimore American.

ASSERTED THAT PRICE OF PRINT PAPER WAS MONOPOLY PRICE AND THAT IT SHOULD COME IN FREE OF DUTY.
Washington, March 5. The charge was made on the floor of the House of representatives yesterday- by Mr. Hitchcock of Nebraska that the committee on ways and mean3 had been a party, either knowingly or in ignorance, "to gigantic schemes of plunder." He was speaking on the tariff question, with special reference to the duty on wood pulp, although he referred to other schedules. He declared that the Paper Trust wrote in the Dingley bill the paper schedule; that the Lumber trust wrote the lumber schedule; the Steel trust the steel schedule and other trusts wrote other schedules affecting their interests. Mr. Hitchcock said that ex-Congressman Russel, a paper manufacturer; ex-Senator Warner Miller and H. J. Chrisholm of Maine, all had spoken before the committee in advocacy of the tariff and he charged that six months after the Dingley law went into effect the International Paper company was incorporated with these three gentlemen as its highest officers. The real object of those who secured the Dingley tariff on paper, he declared, was to capitalize the water power and spruce forests of the United States, form a great monopoly and raise the price of print paper in America. Another combination, he said, had grown up in the Western states, operating side by side with the International Paper company. The combination he referred to, he said, had been known under various names, "and at one time openly existed as the General Paper Company." The price of paper in the United States, he declared, was a monopoly price, and the only escape from it was to permit print paper to come in free of duty.
Washington, March o United States Senator Redfield Proctor of Vermont died at his apartments at the Champlain here yesterday afternoon, after a short illness, following an attack of grip. The senators son, Governor Fletcher Proctor, of Vermont, who was summoned to the city, was at the bedside when the senator passed
away. Senator Proctor was 77 years j old. Senator Proctor's death occurred at 4:50 o'clock. Among the first to call I to pay their respects were Vice Presi- ! dent Fairbanks and Senator Scott of i West Virginia. j Senator Proctor is survived by his 1 wife, two sons, Fletcher U. Proctor, ' Governor of Vermont, and Redfield Proctor Jr., and a daughter, Miss Emily D. Proctor. 1 Senator- Proctor had been a con's spicuous factor in the politics and i business interests of Vermont for i many years and was reputed to bo one ! of the wealthiest members of the j United States Senate. ! He was largely interested in the
marble Industry, was identified with other commercial pursuits, was a civil war veteran on the staff of Gen. William ("Baldy") Smith, was secretary of war during President Harrison's administration and had been in the Senate since 1891, when he left the Cabinet to succeed George F. Edmunds. The senator was born in Proctorsville and, before his entrance into public life in this city, had served his state as a member of each House of the Legislature In turn and as Governor and Lieutenant Governor.
HE TALKED OF HOPES.
SAYS HE WOULD NOT HOLD BIG STICK OVER CONGRESS OR INTERFERE WITH LEGISLATIVE OR JUDICIAL AFFAIRS.
Washington, March f. "You can't handle powder, and handle it fast, without having accidents. And you have got to handle it fast you must reach your gun before the other fellow gets his. You must hit the other quick and as many times as you can before he gets at you. These expressions are taken from the testimony of Rear Admiral William S. Cowles, chief of the bureau of Equipment of the navy department, before the senate committee on naval affairs in the investigation of criticisms of battle-ship construction. Speaking plainly, Admiral Cowles said that the American ships were the equal of any afloat, and indorsed in positive terms the open turreted direct ammunition hoist with the improvements made since the Missouria and Georgia accidents to make them safe. The testimony of Amiral Cowles was centered in a description of the explosion on the battleship Missouri, which he commanded at the time.

Sharper Than Needles. "As sharp as a needle" is an expres slon that comes readily enough to the tongue, but in reality the needle Is an altogether Inadequate standard for comparison with the instruments that nature fashions. Although our knowledge of the misapplied use of a needle point may painfully impress us with a belief in its exceeding sharpness, most of the pricks and stings that w receive when trespassing into tbe domains of the plant and insect world re Inflicted with much sharper instruments.

New York, March 5. Having fini ished a stump-speaking tour of the
South and West, accompanied by a press agent, Jesse R. Grant, sou of U.ySses S. Grant, twice president of the United States, lias come to the conclusion that there is at least one man in the United States who can beat William J. Bryan for the Democratic jiorainatiou for presidential candidate. He. Is that man. Surrounded by a small coterie or friends in the Manhattan club yesterday afternoon Mr. Grant talked enthusiastically of his hopes, and assured bis hearers that he would not attempt to rid Into public favor by use of the big stick, nor would he if nominated find elected attempt to make a' oneman government the rule in the United states. He would would make it bis business, ho taid, to see that the executive branch of tbe government did not interfere in the least with the judicial and legislative branches. In other words, he declared that he would not make it his purpose to run the congress, but would bow to the w ill of that body and carry out fearlessly such laws as it might enact. Was Well Received. "You know I had quite a send-off in the Southern and Western States when 1 was down there, and there was a clamor for my candidacy, but 1 did not want to feet carried off my feet," said Mr. Grant as he crossed and vetrossed his Knees in front of the bi. open fireplace of the club. 'So I would not give them any answer until 1 had time to get back to New York and consult with my friends.
The Cause of Gas Gas on the stomach indicates that food has fermented. The food is usually starch. It ferments because it doesn't digest. The food was not properly cooked. The particles of starch have not been so separated that the di gestive juices can get to them. The remedy is not an artificial digester nor a pre-digested food. The remedy is to supply the starch in shape to be digested . Then let the stomach do the work for which it is intended. When you toast bread; you notice that it digests better. You have applied more heat broken up more of the starch. But the perfect food for a weak stomach is Mapl-Flake. No other food in the world is cooked so well as that. Our wheat is steam -cooked for six hours. Then cured for 90 hours. Then each separate berry is flaked4so thin that the full heat of our ovens can get to each atom. Then the flakes are toasted, for 30 minutes, in a heat of 400 degrees. The result is a food that's all food, because it all digests. No part will ferment to cause digestive disorders. Try it and see.

Mapl-Flake is the perfect food forthos with weak digestions. It isthe perfect food for the economical, because none goes to waste. It is the perfect children's food, because it is the whole wheat, wholly digestible. So to make it delicious to make children like it we boil it in pure maple syrup. Tn result is, they beg for it beg for the food that i best for them. Don't take a. fiake, prepared in onefourth the time. because it is fiveceatscheaper. "It's AH oo4"

The Same Old Story of Stormy Month Is Repeated by Him.

ES
HIS STATE CALL
Committee to Meet And Complete Arrangements.
Rev. Ira R. Hicks in out. with his long range March weather predictions and tells the same old story in the same old way the greater part of the month is given over to rain and snow storms, punctured at frequent intervals with sleet storms to break tho
monotony. Here is the way he would make us believe the month will be: The regular storm period for March is billed to be on deck on the 4th extending to the 9th. The chances are that there will be much unsettled weather extending from the first to the second ieriod with electrical, tropical storms southward, severe storms of rain and wind, turning into blizzards of sleet and snow northward. Do not forget that Mercury is the "sleet God'' and that the tendency to have sleet storms will likely be numerous from the 3d to the 20th with three distinct storm periods. All concerned should figure on some very rough weather during this and other March periods with stubborn and unseasonable cold after the passage of rain, sleet and snow storms. The last period of the month is a regular Jonah, lasting for five days at
the close of the month.' Falling bar- j ometer, rising temperature, cloudiness ' and seismatic storms will all be crowded into this period. The 30th and 31st promises to be fierce with storms and tidal waves, extending over to April third. !

In an important meeting of the bur
eau of American republics, pres
over by President John Barrett
representative of Venezuela failed to
attend. There was a meeting of the Senate: Foreign Relations committee yester- j
day afternoon, lasting until late in tne day, but nothing was announced. The members of the Administration who are handling the extremely delicate situation make no pretense of hiding the gravity of the situation and declare that on Castro can be placed the blame for the crisis, for he is impatient, dictatorial, insulting and unwilling to discuss the subject with judicial spirit. The arrogance and truculence of Castro, it is said, has made the usual diplomatic anticipation or prophecy extremely difficult. As the situation stands today The president has transferred the job of wielding the "big stick" to congress.

congress is in session. Tho administration policy in the affair has been outlined to its intimate friends in congress. Briefly, jr. is that
the correspondence between Castro i and thf State department shall be I placed before the senate. In that way:
it will become public, debates will follow and public sentiment will be tested. Should public sentiment approve the application of the army and navy as a solvent, the president will send a message to congress dealing with the subject and urging armed intervention. The navy lias already acted jas if it Liad some premonition of demands upon it. It is pointed out that tbe new battle ship Mississippi was sent a few days ago from League Island to Guantanamo. This ship would undoubtedly be the flagship of any squadron ordered to protect United States interests. The navy could assemble the following vessels in short order in southern waters: The cruiser Teotna in Martinique, lies Moines in Guantanamo. Paducaij in Guantanamo. Dubuque in Puerto Corw. and Marietta In w Orleans.
