STRICKLAND BILL THOUGHT HOT BE CONSTITUTIONAL

Measure Passed by the House Yesterday Seeks to Prohibit Illegal Voting of Foreign Citizens.

WILL DISFRANCHISE MANY LEGAL VOTERS Bill Was Passed by the Lower House by Strictly Party Vote, the Republicans Being In Opposition.

Palladium 'Bureau, Indianapolis, Jan. 29. representative King of Wabash county, eays he has a grave doubt as to the constitutionality of the Strickland bill, passed by the house yesterday, which seems to prohibit the illegal voting of foreigners at elections, fl'his bill provides that when a man offers to vote at an election and is challenged he must, if of foreign birth, tell where and when he was born, 'when and on what ship he came to this country, when and at what pdrt he landed, whether he has ever voted in this country, how long he has lived in the United States, the state of Indiana, the township and the precinct. If his answers do not correspond with itLe requirements of the law for quaillied voters he shall not be allowed to vote. King says there are very few foreign born citizens in this country who can tell today what ship they came on to .America, and that the mere fact that this is one of the essential questions un'er this bill which, if the voter can not answer it, will disqualify him as a voter, will be unconstitutional Vc.ause it will disfranchise a man Tho has every legal and constitutional right to vote. "If this law should be declared unconstitutional," said King, "the only thing that would be left standing would be the provision repealing the present law regarding challenging vo'ten;." Foreigners Are Ignorant. The bill passed the house by a strict Tfsrty" vote, all the democrats voting tor it and the republicans against it. Hut there is little likelihood that it will get past the republican -senate. The republicans say they" ire for election reform laws, but not disfranchisement of honest voters. "Somebody has seen something real or imaginary and has struck out in she dark," said King. "The bill is ridiculous. A few Hunkies up in the I'orthwest part of the state are the bogie at which they are driving, but this bill will work greater damage than benefit." A Strict Party Vote. An effort is to be made to repeal the finti-cigarette law at this sesion of the legislature and Senator Cox of Marion county is preparing a bill for that purpose. It will provide that dealers shall not sell cigarettes to minors but will not prohibit their sale to adults. Senator Cox says in explanation of his position that cigarettes are being sold any way, and that the sale may as well be legalized. He says that If men can not get the cigarettes in this atate they can send outside for them

Taste Is Sure Stomach Guide

" Barometer Which Never Fails, Though Seldom Believed. "Taste is the direct guide to the stomach; and the taste buds are connected by the nerves with the stomnch itself, so that they represent its health and disorder. If the stomach or Its juices are out of tone, the blood is fermented by a change in the alkaline or acid condition, and these reach the mouth both directly and indirectly. "The taste buds are in the tongue, and are mounted by hairlike projections called papillae; they cover the surface of the tongue." "When you taste these buds rise up and absorb the liquid; inform the nerves; the nerves tell the stomach, and the food is acceptable or not, just as the stomach feels." The above remarks on taste comes from an eminent authority and simply explains why when one smells cooking or sees food one thinks he can eat but when he tastes he learns the stomach is out of business. To the person who cannot taste aright, who relishes no food and simply forces himself to eat, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets hold the secret of enjoyable eating, perfect digestion and renewed general health. Most men wait until their stomachs are completely sickened before they think seriously of assisting nature. When your taste for food is lost it is 8 certain sign the stomach needs attention. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets cure such stoma h. They restore sweetness of breath, renew gastric Juices, enrich the blood and give the stomach the strength and rest necessary to general duty. Forty thousand physicians use Stuart's Dyspepsia Table ts and every druggist' carries them in stock ; price COc per box.

and have them shipped in by express. Thus, be says business is driven away from the local dealers and he says this is not fair. Repeal Cigarette Law. One scheme proposed for the regulation of the cigarette business is similar to that of the retaft liquor business. It has been suggested that a law might be passed which would make it a crime to smoke a cigarette in a public place, just as it is a crime for a person to be found intoxicated in a public place. This would at least keep the cigarette out of the sight of the public, and if a man wished to smoke himself to death in private he would have the same right to do so that a man would have to drink himself to death. Tendency to Lower Salaries. Senator Mattingly says that the general tendency of his fee and salary bill, which he introduced in the senate yesterday is to lower the salaries of county officers in the various counties, although, he says in some of the larger counties of the state increases are provided for. Taken as a whole, however, he say6, it will mean a smaller aggregate outlay of the people's money. "In some of the larger counties," he said, "where there has been a great increase in population an increase in salary is provided for. In Lake county, for example, some of the county officers are spending all of their salary in paying deputies. In that county the bill makes a decided increase in salaries. Marion County Increase. "But taking everything into consideration there would be a deer in the total salaries under the bill. At present, county auditors, for example, receive a stipulated salary and in addition they receive pay under the county reform act and $50 a year under the depository law. Taking all of the extra remuneration into consideration my bill would provide for decreases in most counties. The Mattingly bill provides for increases in Marion county. In this county the salary of the clerk, including all allowances, is $19,000 a year. The Mattingly bill would fix the clerk's salary at $22,000. Increases in other offices would be as follows: Auditor, $17,500 to $22,000; sheriff, $13,000 to $15,000; recorder, $12,500 to $16,500; commissioners, $2,200 to $2,500. Call Special Election. Governor Marshall, last night, called a special election in Marshall county for Thursday, February 11, to elect a Representative to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Representative Sarber, last Saturday. The House committee on education has decided to stand by the law that requires high school qualifications in a school teacher. Fassett A. Cotton, state superintendent of public instruction, and Robert J. Aley, who will succeed him in that office in March-, appeared before the committee and urged the killing of a bill that would repeal the qualifications law, and the committee decided to take such action.

HONOR III STORL . FOe TWO WRIGHTS President Roosevelt Will Present Medals to Former Richmond Boys.

AMERICANS APPRECIATIVE ARMY OFFICERS BELIEVE BACKWARD STEP WAS TAKEN WHEN AERONAUTIC APPROPRIATION WAS ELIMINATED. Washington, Jan. 29. When President Roosevelt presents the gold medals proposed by Congress to be given to the Wright brothers upon their return from Europe within the next few weeks, for their aerial experiments, it will be a token of appreciation from the people of the United States. Not only is the nation proud of the achievements of the aviators, but it is enthusiastic over the fame achieved by the United States by reason of the successful flights of the Ohio scientists. It is difficult to understand why the $500,000 asked for by the signal corps was eliminated from the war department appropriations. In the last report of the chief of the signal corps he sets forth various substantial reasons why the United States should have such a fleet of aeroplanes. One of these is that the cost of such a fleet would not be more than $1,000,000 for ten vessels. He points out that this sum would hardly pay the cost of one battleship and adds that such an impetus would materially aid scientists to perfect standard grades of aeroplanes. Signal Corps Helpful. As stated at the department today the signal corps has been instrumental in materially advancing the progress of aerial navigation and has encouraged the owners and inventors of dirigible balloons and aeroplanes. "To be denied the right of further advancing the progress of these scientific experiments means that aeronautics have come to an end In. the army," said Gen. James Allen today. "This means more than the statement would at first Indicate," said a prominent official. "It means that the large sums that have been expended on these experiments has been used to little purpose. The Wright brothers will perhaps sell their inventions to foreign countries which really- belong to America.

is taking a backward step in this particular department and that the signal corps Is being hindered in its work to progress that department, and that balloon sheds, tubes, cylinders and various otlr equipment which have been purchased by them are a loss to the United States." Influence will be brought to bear on the senate committee on appropriations when this bill is again presented.

Commenting on the fact that President Roosevelt has set aside 70,000 acres on the Pacific coast as a refuge for birds, a German periodical exclaims: "And this in the land of the 'dollar hunters,' while we in idealistic warm-hearted Germany have within the last fifty years completely exterminated several varieties of birds."

Very Few Are Hopelessly Deaf As a matter of fact 99, of those afflicted with deafness can be made to hear. and. to hear clearly, by the use of the Acousticon. The usual instruments are clumsy and inefficient. The reverse is the case with this remarkable little electric device. It is worn as a part of the dress and is very inconspicuous, the hands being left entirely free. The Acousticon gathers all ound. Intensifies it 400, clears the articulation and quickens the sluggish action of the acoustic organs, with the seemingly miraculous, yet really natural result that the deaf hear. In the few instances where it fails, the auditory nerve has been completely destroyed. It is gratifying to be able to state that in many instances continued use of the Acousticon has so benefited the working parts of the ear that, in time the natural hearing has been restored, and in all cases there is a very marked improvement. Think of the many every-day pleasures dented to the deaf, all of which may be. enjoyed by the possessor of an Acousticon. To the deaf business man its value is Incalcuablo. To the friends of the deaf it is a great relief. e trial free, mo peaalty. mo npraw nhntfTW If It does mot make y.a hear. Call and make a trial, free.

THEATRICAL CALENDAR.

GENNETT. Friday "Princess Bonnie." Saturday "The Wolf." NEW PHILUPS. All Week High Class Vaudeville.

"The Wolf." That immense scene In "The Wolf," under the direction of Sam and Lee Shubert, which comes to the Gennett theater Jan. 30, matinee and night, in which a duel takes place before the audience, but on a stage so dark that you can't tell which man is getting the worst of it. "Then comes a fall, a deadly silence. One is killed. But which, the hero or the vlllian? And then a light flashes and you see what you see! It is not the only big scene of the play, but the biggest, strongest and greatest scene ever placed on any stage.

The New Phillips. One of the agreeable things about "The Green Mouse," the comedy being produced this week at the New Phillips theater, is the fact that both Mr. and Mrs. Rogers can act. It isn't a one-sided thing where all the talent is possessed by either one or the other. There is not an oath or a doubtful or double meaning joke, no quarreling, no mistaken identity, no mother-in-law, but the comedy comes from a series of natural situations in which the Green Mouse develops into prominence. Mr. Rogers, while he plays an inebriated man. does it delicately, so as not to offend the most refined lady. He plays a laughing, good natured jag, and one cannot help liking him. Miss Mackintosh has a clear, well-modulated, speaking voice that is a pleasure to hear, and between them they give a delightful performance.

It Can Only Be Imparted to the Body Through the Mind. The elixir of youth lies in the mind or nowhere. Tou cannot be young by trying to appear so, by dressing youthfully. You must first get rid of the last vestige of thought, of belief, that yon are aging. As long as that is in mind cosmetics and youthful dress will amount to very little in changing your appearance. The conviction must first be chnngod; tbe thought which has produced the aging condition must be reversed. If we can only establish tbe perpetual yonth mental attitude, so that we feel young, we Lave won half the battle against old age. Be sure of this, that whatever you feel regarding your age will be expressed in your body. Nothing else more effectually retards age than keeping in mind the bright, cheerful, optimistic, hopeful, buoyant picture of youth In all Its splendor, magnificence; tbe alluring picture of the glories which belong to youthyouthful dreams. Ideals, hopes and all the qualities which belong to young life. One great trouble with us is that our imaginations age prematurely. The hard, exacting conditions of our modern, strenuous life tend to harden and dry up the brain and nerve cells and thus seriously injure the power of the imagination, which shonld be kept fresh, buoyant, elastic Success Magazine.
