BERBER V7AUTS THE SEIIJITEJSCIIRDEO Socialist Congressman Introduces a Resolution in the House Today. (American News 8rvic) , Washington. April 27. Declaring that the senate has run its course.

Representative Berger, Socialist, introduced a resolution in the house today calling for the abolition of the up

per branch of congress. In his pre

amble be states the senate has become a useless and obstructive body and a

menace to the liberties of the people, and an obstacle to the social growth of

the United States.

Many of its members, he says, are

representatives,' not of a state or peo

ple, but of certain predatory combina

tions and a body which by reason of

the corruption attending the election

of its members has furnished the grav

est public scandals in the history of

the nation. '

The , Derger resolution would abolish the senate and vest all legislative

powers In the house of representatives whose acts, subject to referen

dum, shall be the supreme law of the

land. Berger declared today the sen

ate had become In some respects sim

liar to the house of lords. He denied thathe senate should be regarded as a "check" against sudden upheavals in

the government, declaring that there Is nothing more conservative than the great mass of the people. Speaking

of the referendum he said "The referendum is, in reality, the most conserv

atlve political power in existence, as the example of Switzerland proves,

where it nas been in use lor many years. The referendum is lnfiintely stronger than all the senates in the world because no democratic power is great enough to resist it and yet no

progressive measure pr reform is safe until it is accepted by the majority of

the people."

Sentiment for His Candidacy

for President Noticed in Washington. ' .

(American New, Service) -

Washington. April 27. It is almost certain that unless Col. Roosevelt stays the effort! of. his friends that

his name will shortly be taken up in

earnest as a candidate for the Republican nomination for president in 1912. An interview given by Senator Borah, a progressive, after his return. fromva visit' to the Colonel is significant of the sentiment generally among the progressives and even some of the conservatives. It is generally admitted by all brands of Republicans in Washington that. Taft cannot be reelected In the present state of popular .sentiment. The , understanding here among Mr. Roosevelt's frlepds is that he does not desire the nomination but would accept if the country demanded. ' TO AMEND STREET R. R.

Please Read These Two Letters. The following letter from Mrs. Orville Rock will prove how unwise it in for women to submit to the dangers of a surgical operation when it may be avoided by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. She was four weeks in the hospital.and came home suffering worse than before. Then after all that suffering Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound restored her health. , v r HEBE IS IIEB OWN STATEMENT.'';

I very severely with a displacement I could not -

I be on my feet for a long? time. My nhvsician

I treated me for several months without much re

To-day I am well and strong and do all my own housework. I owe my health to Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and advise every woman who is afflicted with any female complaint to try it. Mrs. Orville Bock, B. R. No. 5, Paw Paw, Mich.

"There never was a worse case.

Bockport, Ind. M There never was a worse case of woman's His than mine, and I cannot begin to tell you what I suffered. For over two years I was not able to do anything. I was in bed for a month and the doctor said nothing but an operation would cure me. My father suggested Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound; so to please him I took it, and I improved wonderfully, so I am able to travel, ride horseback, take long rides and never feel any ill effects from it. I can only ask other suffering women to give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound a trial before submitting to an operation." Mrs. Margaret Meredith, B. F. D. No. 3, Bockport, Ind. ; " We will pay a handsome reward to any person who will prove to us that these letters are not genuine and truthful or that either of these women were paid in any way for their testimonials, or that the letters are published without their permission, or that the original letter from each did not come to us entirely unsolicited.
