SHERMAN LAW MAY START Alt UPROAR

Attempt to Wipe It Off the Statute Books Will Result in Fight. BY 8IDNEY E8PEY. WASHINGTON, Nov. 15. As a result of the verbal duel between President Taft and Representative Martin V. Littleton over the merits of the Sherman anti-trust law, legislators pow returning to Washington believe that a bitter flght may be precipitated during the next session of Congress through efforts to amend the law. ' It may be stated in advance that any effort to touch the Sherman law, or to 'wipe It from the statute books," as demanded by Representative Littleton, a Democratic member of the House, will cause a legislative upheaval. The tilt between Representative Littleton and the President, which occurred at the banquet tendered the chief executive by the Pittsburg Chamtier of Congress, came as a surprise not only to official Washington and the country, but to the banquet guests us well. Representative Littleton was especially severe In his criticism of the measure; President Taft just as strongly defended the law as being adequate for all present day needs. Clark For the Law. On the heels of this ratner sensational battle of words comes a dispatch from Omaha to the effect that Speaker Champ Clark, for one, does Hot agree with Mr. Littleton, although a fellow-Democrat, and that the Speaker will oppose any effort to repeal the Sherman law or to enact another statute which may not be an effective after trial. It is also known that Representative Henry D. Clayton, chairman of the House committee on Judiciary, and Representative William C. Adamson, of Georgia, chairman of the House Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce, who would loom up in the event of a movement to repeal the law, are rather Inclined to let well enough alone; and that they would fight any such radical proposition as that which contemplates the undoing of a statute which has been upon the law books lor twenty years. Altogether, it is believed rather improbable that any change in the Sherman act will be made, especially upon the eve of another presidential election. Now Has Interpretation. As pointed out by the President in his reply to the New York representative, the Sherman law has but recently had a real Interpretation. For a number of years the business world has waited for the Supreme Court to put some definite construction upon the law, and to interpret It so that there could be no misunderstanding of its potency and intent. The Supreme Court In the Standard Oil and Tobacco Trust cases has furnished such interpretation. It is still a mooted question among lawyers and legislators as to whether the Supreme Court acted wisely In writing the words "reasonable" and "unreasonable" into the statute, but, at any event, the Department of Justice has seemed 8atisf4edwith the interpretation of the act by the highest tribunal and that department has gone ahead with other trust-busting prosecutions. Now comes Representative Littleton who is forging o the front as one of the best constitutional lawyers in the House. Representative Littleton, looking the President in the eye at the Pittsburg banquet declared that the Sherman law was utterly unsuited to the requirements of today, that big business could not be regulated through It and that the law ought to give way to some substitute measure. Calls Law Poor One. "It seems clear to me," said Mr. Littleton, who Is also a member of the House committee named to investigate, the steel trust, "that the Sherman law cannot possibly be made effective In the extermination of the real evil 'without carrying with it too large a sacrifice of the entire industrial faabric, and that It should be absolutely reCOULD HOT SLEEP All Over Baby's Body, Head and Face. Scratching Made Sores. Used Cuticura Soap and Ointment and Have Had No Further Trouble. "On July 27, 1909, we left Boston for a trip to England and Inland, taking baby with ub. After bein In Ireland a few days a nasty rash came out all over hU body. We took him to a doctor who said it was chicken pox, and rare us mrdicine for him. The trouble started in the form of a rash and was all over baby's body, head and face, at different times. It irritated., and "1 he would scratch It with an nls might.

The rash cot no better, and it used to itch and burn at nlffht so bad that the child could not sleep. Be was completely covered with It at different times. It was at this time that my mother advised us to try Cuticura Soap and Ointment. After using Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment for about nine months the places disappeared. There are not any scars, or other kind of disfigurement, and baby is completely cured by the Cuticura Boap and Ointment. We have had no further trouble with baby's skin.

HEED THE WARNING

Many Richmond People Have Done So. When the kidneys are sick they give unmistakable warnings that should not be ignored. By examining the urine and treating the kidneys upon the first sign of disorder, many days of suffering may be saved. Sick kidneys expel a dark, ill-smelling urine, full of "brickdust" sediment and painful in passage. Sluggish kidneys cause a dull pain in the small of the back, headaches, dizzy spells, tired, languid feelings and frequent rheumatic twinges. Doan's Kidney Pills are for the kidneys only; they help Bick kidneys, and rid the blood of uric poison. If you suffer from any of the above symptoms you can use no better remedy. Richmond people recommend Doan's Kidney Pills. Mrs. F. P. Brooks, 215 S. Fifth St.. Richmond, Ind., says: "We have used Doan's Kidney Pills in our family for years, getting them at Luken & Co.'s drug store and would not be without a supply in the house. I took this remedy for a weakness of the kidneys and pains in my back and sides and I found great relief. Doan's Kidney Pills are deserving of the highest endorsement." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Fofiter-Milbum Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States. Remember the name Doan's and take no other. pealed and a new policy or scheme of legislation inaugurated." Answering Mr. Littleton, the President, who was taken somewhat by surprise at the suddenness of the attack upon the law which he had defended in former speeches, remarked that "the Sherman law has been on the statute books for twenty years and has been construed, and construed and construed. Anally by the Supreme court. "The two decisions last spring, in my judgment, give it definite meaning that any combination in restraint of trade with the purpose of controlling prices and stifling competition is a violation of the statute I know I am speaking against the trend of many of you, but I cannot help it. The law is on the statute books and must be enforced and this stifling of competition and this control of prices must cease. I want the business men of. this country to face the problem." Harlan Was Drastic. It will be recalled that, when the Supreme Court handed down its now famous decisions in the Standard Oil and the Tobacco Trust cases, some of" the best constitutional lawyers in both the House and Senate, were interviewed and the majority of them expressed the opinion that the Sherman law "would do." Prior to these decisions there had been considerable question as to the efficiency of the law in its final analysis and both the business and political world awaited the opinion of the highest tribunal. With the exception of Justice Harlan, now dead, every member of the court concurred in the majority opinion and Justice Harlan's opinion was even more drastic in its interpretation of the law. Justice Harlan was opposed to writing into the law the word "reasonable," his contention being that this was an unsurpatlon of the legislative function. As it was, however, members of Congress, regardless of party, seemed pleased with the majority opinion of the court and did not seem to think that it weakened the law or the possibility of its enforcement. The Department of Justice, showing its faith in the Sherman statute, immediately began other prosecutions, ending in the most sensational suit of them all filed a few days ago against the steel trust. Under these circumstances it is not thought probable in Washington that any effort to amend or repeal the Sherman law in the near future can be successful. If any amendment whatever is attempted the probabilities are that It will go to strengthen the law rather than to take it from the books, which would be opposite to the course recommended by Representative Littleton, who proposes a new start altogether. The improbability of any amendment to the Sherman law is further emphasized by the fact that next year comes the Presidential elections and the business will be unsettled anyway. Neither the Democratic or the Republican leaders desire to thrust too much to the front any talk of amending a statute which has been weighed and characterized as not wanting by the Supreme Court of the United States. Trust prosecutions are to play a part in the next campaign, but it is expected that this will be independent of discussions as to the merits of the anti-trust laws.

She Started Early. There was a sergeant in an English regiment who was a martinet of the meanest kind, a veritable tyrant, whom the men thoroughly f detested. The ser geant decided to get married, and the men of the regiment decided that when the happy event came off it it would be a fitting occasion to pay back with Interest old scores. On the eventful day when the happy pair emerged ft' they were greeted with a perfect shower of rice and old CAUGIIT him just shoes, but one TomABOVE THE EVE. mj nad s,y,v sub. stituted a big pair of regulation Blucher boots, which he threw with such unerring nlm that the missile caught the sergeant just above the eye. inflicting a nasty cut. Directly the ceremony wns over the sergeant immediately went to the hospital to have the wound dressed. The doctor, after examining the swollen and discolored optic, Inquired how it was done. "Well, sir." replied the sergeant, "I got married today, and" Here he was cut short by the doc tor, a married,,, man, exclaiming: THAT EXPLAINS IT. "Oh, I see! That explains it. But. by Jove, my dear man, she started early !"

Brown and Black. In one of the middle west cities there lived a local wit and his favorite butt. Both were prominent clubmen and enlivened the same social set. One was named Black and the other Brown Black was Immaculate In his dress while Brown was careless, often wearing his finger nails in mourning and a not immaculate collar with a dress suit. But family connections excused his shortcomings. One evening thf pair arrived at a reception aud met thi hostess simultaneously. The two name:? mentioned together suggested a bon mot to Brown, but the opening was disastrous. "The colors are very much in evidence tonight." said Brown. To which their hostess replied, "Yes. I see they are, and, if rumor is to b credited, they are fast colors." "No, no," broke In Black. "Brow won't wash." Severely Proper. A Boston girl the other day said t a southern friend who was visltin her as two men rose in a car to giv them seats, "Oh, I wish they woul not do it!" "Why not? I think it Is very nk of them," said her friend, settling he. self comfortably. "Yes, but one can't thank them.yo know, and it is so awkward." "Can't thank them! Why not?" "Why. you would not speak to : strange man, would you?" said tlu Boston maiden, to the astonisbmen of her southern friend. A Shock For Mansfield. Mr. Mansfield's dignity was ver great. He couducted himself towan others in a dignified way. He expect ed others to conduct themselves toward him in like manner. But once, in Chicago, Mr. Mansfield was touched on the raw by a manager. It was the first night of a Cyrano de Bergerac tour. The great actor, his delicate nerves a-quiver. was making up with his dresser's help when the manager rushed into the dressing room without knocking, slapped Mr. Mansfield heartily on the back and shouted: "The. house is packed! There ain't even no more standin' room! Now. Dick, old man, sail in and show 'em what yer made of!" The dresser used to say if he hadn't hustled that manager out Cyrano would have run him through with his sword.

They are comedians of the highest ability. The act, "The New Pupil" was written by Bruce Richardson for the express purpose of bringing out the talent of the young lady. She is a charming, vivacious entertainer, whose

smile is infectious. Bruce Richardson has made people laugh in every city in this country, as Aleck, the sheriff of Ulster, and as Nelse, an old fashioned negro in the "Clansman." He has played parts in theatrical companies for the past eigh- j teen years, but with his greatest sue-', cess in portraying negro characters in j "The Clansman." Although there were twenty-eight members tn the troupe j giving this production he was featured ; as one of the stars. To get the correct make-up and to be absolutely correct in the southern negro dialect, he spent several summers in the south studying this character in its most natural state of preservation. The fact that his southern critics were among the most generous in giving him flattering notices, even to the exclusion of the other members of the cast, is proof that he learned his lesson well. While playing New Orleans, Harry Watson, one of the stars of "The Follies of 1910" presented him wit h a pair of especially designed shoes for a negro character and which he prizes very highly. As stated above, "The New Pupil" was written by him. The Three Richartlsons have a handsome home in Saginaw, Mich., where they gave their playlet for the first time after it had been created. They put it on as a special feature one night at the Casino in Saginaw and made such a hit that they were engaged for several weeks following. Since then they have been touring the country, and wherever they have appeared "The New Pupil" has made good. Russian Orchestra.

The singers have not only been attached to the Imperial Opera Houses of St. Petersburg or Moscow, but have sung before the Czar himself. In this operatic section are such artists as Mile. Liubov Orlova, soprano. Mile. Olga Soriabina, contralto, M. Nicholas Vasiliev, tenor, and M. Ivan Tomashevitch, basso. Like the Balaika players and the members of the AllStar Imperial Russian Ballet, the singers had to get leaves of absence from the Imperial Russian Government, before they could come to America.

it is. their stay is limited. They must return early in 1912. Even at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York one does not have opportunity of hearing Russian opera sung in Russian. The coming of these Russian grand opera stars is therefore distinctively momentous. With the Balaika Orchestra they offer to lovers of music opportunity to follow out the plan of sudy of the National Federatior. of Musical Clubs which has decided on a Russian year. This does not mean that the "plain people" who don't go in for the higher walks of music, shouldn't welcome, too. the Balalaika Orchestra and the singers. For the program of the Czar's musicians and singers has a potent popular appeal.
