HOUSE THE STORM CENTRE Will Me Up Rate Bill And Statehood. ACTION ON- THE F0RAER Its Final Form to Be Fixed by the Senate Insurgents Still Hope to Defeat . Statehood Keasure, ' .' .' Washington, Jan. 23, Interest will centre in the House this : week.- The committee on interstate and foreign com merce will bring out its "railroad rate" bill and the "committee" on territories will lay before the body the joint state hood bill and ask for immediate action upon it. In the final nnulysis the action the House will take on these two measures is of small importance for the reason, as hus been explained many times, it in the Senate that is to determine what law shall finally come out of the legis lative hopper, but the publie is interest ed in the fate of the two bills because of the peculiar situation that has exirt--d in the House the last few weeks. Yes terday's programme provided that the joint statehood bill shall be taken up Wednesday and voted on not later than .Saturday. ; Speaker Cannon and his lieutenants feel that they have votes enough to pass the bill or. they would not permit it to wine out of romniittee. On the other hand, the so-called insurgents, the Republican members who are opposed to the admission of Arizona and Oklahoma, cighter jointly or singly , at this time, declare they will be able to defeat the bill by combining with the Democrats. Whatever may happen, it is true beyond ijuestion that the House is at heart against the joint bill. As for railroad rata legislation it has been a foregone conclusion these many weeks that the House would pass under whip and spur any reasonable bill reported by the com mittee.

STAFFORD ON THE JEW Vermont Mao Spoke at Mass Meeting in Washington, D. C. WITH FOUR CONGRESSMEN Protesting Against Recent. Masascres of the Jews in Russia Judge Stafford's ' Speech in Full Is Here Given.. At a mass meeting held in Washing ton, D. C, o Sunday hight to protest against the recent massacre of Jews in Russia, Judge Wendell P. Stafford of Vermont, now a justice of the supreme court of the District of Columbia, was one of the speakers, with Senators Tell er and Patterson of Colorado and Ken resent atives McCall of Massachusetts and Littlefield of Maine. Judge Staf ford's speech .was as follows:' The event's' which have called tip to gether stand by themselves. There is nothing Jo equal them in the records of the race. To find anything worthy of comparioon you must pass by St. liar tholomew and the inquisition and go back to the dispersion, the captivity or the bondage iu Egypt. . They constitute one of the highest mountain peaks of Human wickedness, nen we have lain in our graves a thousand years it will still loom dark against the horizon. The eye that gazes across the centuries will be nrrested by it as the colossal crime in human history. We are standing in its hadow, and we are awed by its very magnitudo as if we stood in the presence of a malignity that knows no Douniis. The world is used to slaughter. It has grown callous to carnage. It can even exult in battle, where man meets man and rights to a finish, lint it has never groyn used to murder, and the blood of a hundred thousand murders turns it pale. ' Cities, have been, sacked before; child hood has teen trodden under heel," wom anhood has been violated, and homes have been laid desolate, before. These terrors follow in the train of "glorious war," and nations have learned to ex pect them a a part of the great price that must be paid for victory and peace, lint Russia's six hundred desolated vil lages and towns were not- in the track of war. They were at peace. They were under the protection of the civil power. mere is notNng new m riots ana m mobs. But eye-witnesses declare the world is compelled to believe that these mobs did their work under the eve of Cossack and police. The guns of the state were trained not on tne rioters, but on their victims. Russia is in revolution. An empire struggling to keep ita Beat cannot be expected to maintain the order of tran quil time. But, for the most part, these towns and cities were never in revolt. The, murderer thousands were unoffending and defenseless. Neither slayer nor slain had lifted hand against the men in powe. The great body of Russian Hebrews did indeed long to he free; they had made known their de sire for a free constitution. That was their only crime that atid the fact that they were Jews. Race hatred is a'i old as the race. But why this sudden and unexampled fury against ft helpless people! Why this uprising, as if at a signal, in a hundred communities at once? There is only one possible answer. The spite and vengeance of a discredited autocracy is being visited upon them because they alone among the lovers of freedom are powerless to resUt. I'pon them it is cay to turn the tide f old prejudice and superstitious hate. Let the rapac ity of the people be gtuttcd ont of their own substance then it may forget to turn against the powers that lie. I)es perste diseases demand desperate rem edies. Russian typranny driven to the wall is striving to drown the revolution in ft deluge of Hebrew blood. In Odessa, where eight thousand Jews were mur dered, Baron Kaulbars was in comman-i of sixty thousnnl troops and refused to interfere. A thousand students armed themselves for the defence of the Jews. Then the garrison did interfere, yes, sur rounded the students and held them pris oners until the massacre was over. Race hatred! A Russian to hate a Jew! Out of the wall of his vast ca thodral he carves the figures of his twelve apostles and everyone ft Jew. He enters and prostrates himself before the picture of a Hebrew child in the arms of a Hebrew mother. He mutters a creed that declares a Jew to be the Son of Cod, the Savior of the world then goes out and kills the first Jew he meets because lie is a, Jew. H is irony to move the laughters of devils and the tears of the just. The Hebrew race deserves the admiration of the world for great and peculiar virtues; but if it wcro black as prejudice can paint it, its sorrows would deserve our sympathy today. - In southern Russia and just across her borders six million Jews have made their homes, one-half of all that dwell upon the globe. Were those who have died already offenders above the rest, or is the massacre to go on till all shall perish or be scattered to the winds! Are the rulers of Russia responsible for thexe outrages? Shall we shut our eyes to all the past quarter of a cen tury has brought to light? This charge is not made against the shepherds of a free people. It is made against a despotism thqt dreams it can impose upon the twentieth century the forms and fetters of the twelfth against a caste that gives up nothing of its feu dal claims except iu obedience to the dagger or the bomb a land that puts its ruffians in oflice end its heroes in prison a laud that sends the flower of its young manhood to grow gray in Si berian dungeons for cherishing those opinions which every man in this audi ence would dio to maintain, and flogs women naked in the public square if they betray sympathy with their broth ers by a whispered word. Such are the governors to whom Israel must look for protection. That is the upper millstone. Underneath lies the (hill and heavy miss of Ruia peasan. try, blind, brutish, superstitious de based and degraded by a thousand years of opprchsiou the ninety millions who! awakened fury may yet sweep crar and LETTER TO TIES READERS Rickert & Wells Guarantee Hyomei to Cure Catarrh or It Costs Nothing. Editor of liarre Daily Times: In view of the prevalence of catarrhal troubles at this season of the year, we want u ten your readers that we nave never sold anything that cave more sat isfaction than Hyomei, when used in catarrhal troubles! You get immediate relief from the treatment, and consistent use will prove to every sufferer, as it nas to many ot our customers, the vir tue of this preparation. Personally we are interested In llyo mei, for it is made and sold on honor, ,nd we do not want your money unless you are uenented and satisfied. There is no stomach dosing in con nection with Hyomei. It is a thoroueh ly local treatment for a local disease, and its soothing, healing medication goes direct to the spot where it is needed. The complete Hyomei outfit consists of a pocket inhaler, a medicine dropper, and a bottle of Hyomei, and the" price is only $1, while additional bottles can be obtained for 50 cents. Wo positively guarantee a cure when Hyomei is used in accordance with directions, or we win refund your money. This certainly 8liovs our faith and belief in the virtues of Hyomei. Yours very truly, Rickert & Wells, Red Cross Phar macy, Barre, Vt, Cossack from the earth. There is the nether millstone. And between the two Russian liberty IH intelligence and as piration of the new Hussi may be ground to powder. That is the plan. There are calamities so great that they melt ai races into one family. "One touch of nature makes the whole world kin." So does an assault like this upon the rights of man. It melts down every barrier that divides us. We are no long, er Russia or American, Jew or Chris tian; we are only men, and we must eith er deny our manhood or we must speak. Governments may still be bound by other ties, but the people in a moment like this are bound by no ties except the ties of kindness and justice which God himself ordained when he niade of one blood all nations of the earth to serve him. What good will our denunciation do? What does Russia care for the opinion of mankind? Sir, the time ha gone by when any man or monarch could defy the united power of the world. The cords of mutual dependence are too many and too strong. Let every community in Christendom do what we propose to do tonight, and Russia even Russia would lie able to read the writing on the wall. Ixt im asumo that the rest of the world will do its duty, but if all the rent should hold their peace, let us do ours. Sir, as I said in the beginning, this is a crime that future ages will take note of. The men of afur times will have their own opinion of it. They will not judge it by what we say of it, but they will judge us very largely by the way we treat it The glorious, liberty loving future will know how to damn such a deed as this without our prompt ing. But when the student Of history shall turn the pages of the past to learn what; part our country took, will he not ask such questions as these? "England, Germany, Italy, France thee sent from their capitals a cry of protest. Had the great free nation of the west no word for an hour like that? Then, as now, from the bank of the Potomac soared the sublime monument to the father of his country i then a now the sacred sepulcher at Mount Vernon was visited by pilgrims without number; on every sine lay tne old battlefields ol freedOiit; and there at the capital were gathered from forty states the representatives of a free and mighty people. Was there no voice from the grave of Washington? Was America heartless or afraid to speak?" Sir, it is not the Jews of Moscow and Odessa, it is we and our children who huve the most at stake in the answer to-that question. This is the place, and this is the hour to an swer it.

Many turn to stimulants and get tem porary relief, but the effect is not kit ing. Others take the various remeiliej which are offered, but these are worse than nothing. Mot of them contain a large percentage of alcohol, and while they may produce an exhilarating effect at "the start, their use works untold in jury. They slowly but surely disar range the system and when their use is discontinued, the reaction sets in which leaves the victim in a condition where it is necessary to use energetic measures. An examination of the tissues of the body will disclose the fact that the al cohol which is. being taken into the system inflames and consumes them, in stead of healing and building them up. What shall tie taken when your sys tem is run down and your vitality is low? Obviously what is needed is a food that produces fat and repairs the wasted tissues; something that enriches the blood and increase circulation; a builder, not a destroyer. Such a food is.Magee's (Malt) Emul sion. It is a combination of pure Nor wegian Cod Liver Oil with syrupy, dias tasic, non-alcoholic Malt and Hypophos phites of Lime and Soda. The oil is fat and makes fat in the body. The malt, according to physicians, is th highest form of food known, and the Hypophosphites are a tonic. You thus get a food, a medicine and a tonic com bined. If you are run down Magee's (Malt) Emulsion will build you up just as surely ns the 6un will rise on the mor row. It guards you against colds, grip and pneumonia by putting your system in shape to withstand the ravages of winter weather. It builds Up steadily and holds all it gains for you. Beware of the wine preparations of cod liver oil. They contain no oil and consequently cannot produce the fat which is desired, and the alcohol in them tears down instead of building up the tissues. . Remember Magee's (Malt) Emulsion is non-alcoholic; it contains no wine, re whiskey; it is a food and food alone. It may be, procured of E, A.

In order to have bis requisition hon ored it is necessary for some official of the Senate to take oath that he had seen the senator in the chamber; but since the indictment and conviction of the Kansas senator he has not appeared in the chamber. The senator, who was into the cloak room, was asked to step into the cham ber for a moment in order that he might be seen by some official, but an employ ee engaged him in conversation in the cloak room near the entrance to the chamber, and the attention of ofliciuls previously having been directed towsrd this door, he vn seen from the cham ber. , It was then certified that Senator Burton was in attendance, and his mile age was paid to him.
