JEFFERSON DID LIKEWISE.

ALTHOUGH ONCE DENOUNCING WASHINGTON FOR IT, JEFFERSON DICTATED THE SELECTION OF MADISON. Chicago, 111., Nov. 6 The RecordHerald today printed the following by .Walter Wellman: "History will record the fact that President Roosevelt named his own tsuccessor In the White House in the person of William Howard Taft. Every one knoWa it was the influence of Mr, Roosevelt In the republican party that made Judge Taft the nominee for pres ldent and no one will deny that Mr. Roosevelt did much toward bringing about the election of his chosen heir. During the campaign the alleged "dicitatorship" of Mr. Roosevelt was sav agely criticised by the opposition party end many republicans did not like it. In this choice of his successor the precedent was established many years ago, and by no less a personage than the first president, the father of hia county, George Washington. Washington was eager to have a continuance of his own administration, Just as Mr. Roosevelt has now been anxious to see his work go on, and "Washington rightly looked upon an administration with Adams at the head of It as a continuation of his own. He strongly supported Adams, and was a stumbling block in the way of the opposition. Jefferson Enters Lists. Jefferson afterward became president, and In view of the fact that in 1796 ha had denounced the "kingly cohorts" of the Washington party for their attempt to dictate a successorahip one would suppose he would be very careful not to follow such a "dangerous precedent." But Jefferson, like Washington before him and Roosevelt among others after him, had pronounced ideas as to "what was best for the country's welfare and thought that, welfare could be conserved only by keeping his own party and men of his choice in power. Ills absolute dictation of the nomination of Madison In 1808 and that of Monroe in 1816 are of too common knowledge for citations in proof. By far the most pronounced application of the "dangerous precedent" is found in the succession of Andrew Jackson. Jackson was enraged at the opposition" to his candidate. He took personal charge and himself directed the Van Buren forces. Jackson even, spread campaign literature under the frank of the president containing eulogies of Van Buren and bitter assaults on the anti-admlnlstrationlsts." You! Dyspeptics Read Vhst An Eminent Medical Man Says Dyspepsia Really Is. Then Gain Hope. "This affection called Dyspepsia, is Ihe greatest torment of civilized life, end Is to be considered rather as an unnatural functional difficulty than as a structural disease." The same authority has classified dyspepsia thus: The first form due to relations with other organs which are in a morbid and unhealthy state, which is characterized as a reflex action. Of snch a type is the nausea and vomiting caused by irritation of brain, lungs, liver or uterus. The second form is caused by scanty supply of gastric juice, made evident by slowness of digestion, long retention of food In the stomach, distress for a long time after meals, accompanied by weighty and uneasy feelings at pit of stomach, decomposition of food in alimentary canal causing fetid and foul gases and the appearance of undigested food in the rvactuations from bowels. The third and last form of dyspepsia, according to this renowned medical light, is that which accompanies come abnormal Quality of the gastric juice, combined with a partial paralysis of the stomach's muscles so that this organ cannot sufficiently mix the food with the digestive fluids. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will remedy each condition of a stomach. afflicted with dyspepsia as above described. These tablets contain digestive agents which act with or without the aid of the stomach.

Pckin, Nov. G. Though the Ameri

can squadron has left Amoy, the mat ter of their presence at the southern port has not been more than mention ed in Pekin. Officials are silent, and the general humiliation at the fact that only a squadron came instead of the whole fleet cannot be concealed. The meagemess of the reply of the foreign board to Admiral Sperry's message of congratulation on the birthday of the dowager empress also has attracted attention, and it is clear that the throne has been indifferent to the whole affair. It is generally realized and declared in Pekin that (tie coming of the squadron and not the main fleet will have an unfavorable effect upon present relations. Squadron Leaves China. Amoy, China, Nov. 6. The second squadron of the American battle-ship fleet, under the command of Rear Admiral Emory, brought its visit to a close yesterday. Early in the morning the squadron steamed out of the harbor bound for Olongapo, where it will Join the first squadron, under Admiral Sperry. The distance to Olongapo Is about 700 miles, and the vessels should reach there early on the morning of November 8. The cost of the reception to the pfficers and crews of the American fleet has exceeded ?l,000,00O. The Chinese government haa been lavish in its gifts to the American officers and men, and at the final official function on shore last night the entertainment afforded by the Chinese government was declared by the Americans to have been, with the exception of Australia, second to none. In Our Fleet's Wake. London, Nov. 6. It has been said that following the successful maneuvers of the American navy the British government is planning to send a fleet cf warships around the world. Officials of the admiralty were questioned, but all they would say was: "There is no information we can give you on this matter." This negative statement, however, would seem to support the intimation that such a tour had been suggested, but under the present political conditions in Europe it is not thought at all probable that the admiralty would dispatch a fleet in any way comparable to the American fleet. TAFT LAUDS Says They Are Indispensable To Civilization. Cincinnati, O., Nov. C Presidentelect William H. Taft, in a speech here urged the extension of American missionary work in foreign lands, and declared that the men and women who go forth to preach the word of God in strange places are indispensable in low-workers all the encouragement and the work of Christian civilization. The address was delivered at a meeting of the general executive committee of the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society in Trinity M. E. church, Ninth street. The church was crowded with women interested in missionary work, and fifty or more missionaries in attendance from distant lands will go back to those foreign countries with the feeling that the next president of the United States honors them, and will, as president, give them and their fellow-workers all theenconrftgement and assistance in .his power. BARNARD SUFFERED BY COUNTY .FIGHT Reasons Advanced for Cut in Henry County. New Castle, Ind., Nov. 6. The cut of Judge Barnard, republican candidate for congress, in his own county is due to the fight that was made on the county ticket. The judge headed the ticket and although discrimination was not strong against him. many of the scratchers overlooked the "head of the ticket in their anxiety to mix up on the choices for county offices. The democrats gain one township trustee in the county. The democrats made a marked gain in the county but the socialist vote was practically a nonentity. The total was but 69 votes. BOLT BREAKS James Snavetey Injured in an Accident. The king bolt of the merchants' delivery wagon of James Snavely broke Thursday and he ., was thrown from the seat to the ground. He was bruised painfully and his back was sprained. He was removed to his home, 27 North. Fifth street, in the city ambulance.

GAINS MADE IN NEW YORK.

VOTE LARGER THAN TWO PRECEDING ELECTIONS, BUT GAIN IN GREATER NEW YORK IS NOT SO GREAT. New York, Nov. 6. New York socialist leaders are untamed and undaunted over the results from the west showing a sharp falling off in the socialist vote. They insist when the final returns are in that Debs will have been shown to have double his national vote of four years ago, which was 402,000. The New York state vote for E. V. Debs for president, estimated on the basis of returns received at state headquarters was placed at between 40,000 and 50,000. The state vote in 1904 was 35.000, but in 1908. with W. R. Hearst's Independence league ticket in the field, it dropped to 21,751. Generally speaking, the up-state socialist vote showed a falling off in the cities and increases in the small towns. Few complete returns by counties had been compiled, but the socialists cited the case of Schenectady, where the vote this year for Deb3 wad 1,200, as compared with 517 in 1904. Considerable increases were shown in Chautauqua county, where Dunkirk gave Debs 203 votes, as compared with only 109 four years ago. In Greater New York, according to the socialist daily paper of this city, Debs polled a total of 25,361, a gain of only 847 over 1904. This figure is be'alnd the vote cast for Hisgen, the independence party candidate, who received 27.278 in Greater New York. In like manner Shearn, the independence candidate for governor, led Wanhope, the socialist candidate, in Greater New York by 34.176 to 23,414. Debs ran -several thousand ahead of Wanhope throughout the state. NEW SKIN REMEDY STOPS ITCHING. Skin Troubles of Infants and Adults Quickly Cured.

DEMOCRATS ARE IT IN" Souvenir Post Cards Sent to Republicans. Has any one sent you one of them? Maybe you don't deserve one. Demo crats are sending to their disappointed republican friends souvenir post cards that are as cruel as the cold cruel world. They are rubbing it in. The card bears the picture of a bunch of violets over which is tied a metal beer bottle opener with the following greeting: "Hanly Souvenir." THE THEATER Lee at Gennett. Is there anything'stranger than the human mind? Prof. Lee last night showed the audience in the Gennett theater that a man' by thinking on one subject would hypnotise himself. "Hypnotism" says 'Prof. Lee "is nothing but imagination." It is a science which we all practice in our every day life. Lee in givi..g these entertainments not only fuvnishes the audience with, plenty of comedy, but also gives them valuable Inform; ion concerning the Hindu people. Last night when the Hindu sleep was put on a number of people in the audience succumbed to restful dreams while others felt a sleepy feeling stealing over them. So far Prof. Lee's entertainments have been very satisfactory and tonight he should have a packed house. His engagements last the rest of this week it eluding Saturday matinee. . ;,, . . .

timent and story, the comedy of which is of the highest order and at the same time novel in treatment and brilliant in dialogue, the heart interest intense, the theme elevating and inspiring and the production a's a whole one that can not fail to be appreciated by all who admire beautiful sentiment and literary excellence in the world of drama. It is an ideal play for entertainment, where ladles are in the majority, in college and ladies semenaries. Miss Ida Parks in the role of the Girl, is an Ingenous one, sweet sympathetic, lovable, with humor and pathos delightfully, blended. The scenes of the play are laid in a New England, college town, Gardner, Maine, and are built around the members of the Gardner football team.
