FAMINE II PAPER;
CONGRESS TO ACT
American Publishers Ask That
Mann Bill Be Passed
at Once.'
PULP WOOD IS EXHAUSTED
(Supply Here Gone and Province of
Quebec Forbids Export After May
1 Newspaper ' Association
Appeals to Lawmakers.
NIV YORK. April 2S: After John
VCorris, chairman of the committee on
paper, had announced at the meeting
of the American Newspaper Publish
ers' Association today that the Govern
ment reports from paper mills, showing'
stock on hand April 1, indicated that
there was less than a six-day supply
of paper for the newspapers, the asso
ciation Instructed Its president to send
the following statement to Congress:
"As a result of strike in the mills
f the International Paper Company,
he price of news print paper for
.ransient needs had advanced approxi
mately $9 per ton within the last five
weeks. A condition approaching a
paper famine is Imminent.
Pulp Wood Supply Kxltaiitcd.
"Aggravating- this situation . is the
official announcement of the' Province
of Quebec, that pulpwood cut from
crown lands after May 1, 1910, cannot
be exported. The American supply of
pulp wood is almost exhausted. I '
"Many of the American mills are de
pendent on Canada for their supply of
raw material, so that the action of the
provincial authorities of Quebec brings
to the print paper Industry of the
1'nited Btates a menace which the spa
tial committee "of the House of Repre
sentatives, after a ten months' inves
tigation of the subject, attempts to
iiverf- by its unanimous recommenda
tion for legislation.
"If the final action in adjusting this
:rint paper matter with Canada is de
ferred for ratification and upproval by
Congress until next Winter it Is prob
able that the newspapers' loss due to
this will represent millions of dollars.
j Prompt Action Abked.
; "We ask that you promptly act on
. I he bill proposed by the chairman of
; that committee, James R. Mann, au
; thorlzing the free entrance of wood
' pulp and printing paper from Canada,
provided all restrictions on the expor
tation of pulp wood and wood pulp are
removed.
"The good faith of Congress was
1 Hedged to adopt the recommendations
: of that special committee."
The session of the association today
; centered largely In the report of the
committee on paper submitted by Mr.
Norrls, the chairman. Much of the re
i port was devoted to a report of the
; pulp wood situation and the tariff com
: plications with Canada involved In it.
: Mr. Norrls' report says in part:
A strlkfi tn the mills of the Intf rnational
I Papor Company has disturbed market condl
; ti'Tj and reduced the output. ,
: , Puhliher are bearing the burden of thia
: Industrial wsrrare. The paper mills which
ire not affected by the Ktrike have prevented
; shortage in stock by utilizing; their pre-
v!ru.My uiiusrd rapacirV.
They have taken up all the flak there was
In the trade. Xew production to -the extent
" Df 3i!0 tons a day is coming on the market.
Paper Must Be Imported.
The very considerable advance In price has
lso diverted ome paper machines from other
; 4tlnd of paper to newp print paper. fcnme
ranadian mills are paying the regular tariff
. if .t.7!V a ton and the countervailing duty of
cents a. ton and the retaliatory duty of $2
; a ton additional a total of $c,.r a ton in
'. -tariff due for admrsicn to the American mar
". kct. In order that they might profit by the
- dispute of the international Paper Company
; with It employee. There ta a report of an
Importation of news print paper by publishers
; from Uermany to relieve this market. Taper
r la nl coming from Norway.
The International Paper Company Tia& tied
, up a large num. possibly 7.0KMio0, in Cana
dian wo4 landa. which investment wai predi
cated on a pledge made by Quebec' ex-Premier
that the province would not increase its
tnmpage dues tor a period of ten years.
That time limit expires September 1. 1810.
The. International Paper Company, with full
knowledge of that time limit, ban built wood
preparing plants In Canada. It ha.- dammed
and Improved Canadian rivers to Increase its
timber output. It has expended vast sums
in timber tracts, while adding only two ma
chines to Its paper-making equipment in the
Cnited States in a period of 12 years.
Paper Costs $50,000,000 Annually.
The money that should have pine Into the
utilization of llH.Otto undeveloped horsepower
on American water courses has been laid out
by It tn a - speculation in Canadian timber
aras.
The C0Ht of paper to publisher, involving
in outlay of approximately $50,000,000 per
annum, is left to the uncertain decision of
Fpeolal Interests In Congress. The American
Xewspaper Publishers' Association should
urge tl-.e prompt action in removing thie- men
ace. A delay until next . Winter will bring
millions of loss to ncwspaperB. The matter
rliould be settled now.
The primary ends of the paper bureau dur
ing the year have been the abolition or the
tariff on print paper and pulps from Canada
and the Insurance of a full and free supply
of pulp wood from Canada.

LEADING STOCKS DOWN
PUBLIC ANXIOUS TO UXLOAI,
XOT TO SPECULATE.
Liquidation Is Evident, and Stop
Loss Orders and Exhausted
Margins Eorce Selling;
XEW YORK, April 28. There was evi
dence of heavy liquidation in the stock
market today. 'Prices of some of the
principal railroad shares sold at tthe low
est level of the year and. speculative sen
timent was much depressed.
The decline in United States Steel, fol
lowing the' advance in the dividend rate,
had a discouraging effect on sentiment
and is taken as proof of the eagerness of
holders of stocks to avail themselves of
favorable opportunities for marketing
them.
During the noon hour the market had
a semi-demoralized appearance. The
calling of loans . by the banks forced
heavy liquidation and the rapid decline
in prices uncovered stop-loss orders and
exhausted margins, . throwing an addi
tional burden on the market.
United States Steel common sold at a
decline of 2 nnd the preferred lost 4
points. Amalgamated Copper. National
J.ead. Utah Copper, Great Northern Ore
Certificates, Anaconda, the New York

GAYNOR ATTACKS HEARST
(Continued From First Page.) y
Now tliat you may have forgotten what you
paid for it I am willinR to meet the Kcn"
tiemen who bought my merchandise. I sold
vou an assortment of capital letters and a
joblot of Chicago vernacular and you thought
you wem getting a brand of new humor.
A'ery often T would weaken when It came
to signing the vouchers. Then I would read
some of the other syndicate stuff and take
courage.
Every Man Can Edit Newspaper. ..
Every man, who .has xot tried it, thinks
he can edit a newspaper, write a comic
opera and manage a hotel. 1 still believe
that I know a. lot about the hotel business.
Everybody wants to help the editor. Not
as regards cheaper wood pulp -or keeping
down the pay roll, . hut with suggestions
for titling up th paper.- Most people still
believe that every newspaper must hustle
tevery night to. get enough ropy to separate
the advertisement. Being a post graduate.
I know that you ana compelled to throw coU
umns and columns of stuff on the floor.
Very often, in glancing over a long tariff
editorial I wonder whatwas thrown on the
iloor. However, I am not here to upset
any traditions merely to offer a few help
ful hints.
In the first place the city newspaper of
today, as compared with the Indiana news
paper of the "70s, is tame, invertebrate,
colorless and apologetic. The first news
paper with which I was associated came out
every Thursday from a room over the hard
ware store.
Editors Get Too Polite.
The fires of the Civil War were still
smouldering; Indiana's chief occupation was
politics. .Nearly every man was voting as
he shot and some of them a good deal
oftener. Our office equipment consisted of
a hand press, a foot power job press, a peren
nial towel and a few fonts of type mostly
italics. Ah, but we had an editor. The
old-tlm- editor, the one we all read, who
stamped his individuality on the paper and
did not bother about the press work, do
you remember what he called a man if he
didn't care much for him? He didn't call
him a molly-coddle, or an Insurgent, or a
malefactor, or an undesirable. He said
the man was a poltroon, a hell-hound, an
unmitigated horse th ief, a Jackal, a mar
plot, a caitiff, a reptile, a viper, a cur and
a -whelp.
He reared a lot of valuable and expres
sive words "that ar3 gradually being elim
inated from our vocabulary because the edi
tors of today, steeped in commercialism,
have abandoned the methods of Wilbur F.
Storey and accepted the leadership of Ed
ward W. Bok.
Also the - newspapers of today are criti
cized because they are kind to the big
advertiser. In fact, the big advertiser has
got them so worked up that many of them
want to run him for a third term.
This Editor in Poorhouse.
I read not long ago that down in Brown
Count y, Indiana, the front room of the
county poorhouse a large, cheerful apart
ment with southern exposure and plants in
the windows is occupied by a man who for
many years conducted a newspaper that
pleased everybody. On the other hand, it's
hard to be successful without disappointing
some of your best friends. So. if you can't
please all your critics, do th next -best
thing and please your subscribers.

DEMOCRATS FAVOR
KERN FOR SENATOR
Indiana Convention Decides

- Stormy Scenes.
PLATFORM IS ADOPTED

Tariff Meets Witb. Disfavor.
INDIAXAPOL1S, April 28. Amid stormy
scenes this afternoon the Indiana Demo
cratic convention voted. 8884 to 8584. to
place In nomination a candidate for
United States Senator, and named John
W. Kern, former running mate of William
J. Bryan, for the place. The convention
named a state ticket and adopted a plat
form opposing? subsidies, favoring an in
come tax, favoring- the withdrawal from
entry of all remaining timber, coal and
Iron lands and waterpower sites and con
demning, the Republican party on various
grounds. .
The vote to make the Indorsement at
the convention was taken after there had
been a long debate of the main question,
and when the decision was reached 10
candidates were placed In nomination.
These were:
G. V. Menzies, Mount Vernon; Robert
W. Miers, Bloomington; Joseph H.
Shea, Seymour ; Ert Slack, Franklin;

the result had been announced, made
his way to the platform and said he
would decline the nomination. Theue

the hall. Thomas Taggart mounted a
chair immediately and declared that It

that Kern accept the nomination. An
other ballot .was ordered.
With the completion of the third ballot,
which gave Kern 772 votes, the other

"Democracy fixes no limits to honest
accumulation of capital, but it denies that
wealth and cunning, leagued together,
may lawfully concentrate Into a few
hand9 the fruits of the productive energy
of the world.
Tariff Is Denounced.
"We denounce the Payne-Aldrlch tariff
act as a masterpiece of Injustice, Involv
ing remorseless exactions from the many
to enrich the few through the trusts and
monopolies which it fosters. Tariff taxa
tion, like other taxation, should be for
publia purposes only,; and not for private
profit, and should be so levied as not to
discriminate against any section, class,
industry or occupation, and limited to the
actual necessities of the Government
economicaly administered.
"We condemn the cowardice of the Re
publican party in Indiana in failing to
meet the Issues In l fair and manly way,
that. In its endeavor to gain Democratic
votes, it has on the tariff question one
.proposition In state platforms and differ
ent and opposing propositions In Congres
sional platforms; that by indorsement it
commends President Taft, who approved
the Payne-Aldrich tariff law, and In the
same resolution commends Senator Bev
eridge, who voted against the same meas
ure, for his cours3 In opposing saich a
tariff law.
"President Taft haa Indorsed Cannon
and Aldrich. We submit to the people
whether relief may be expected from a
party standing for Taft, Cannon, Aldrich
and Beverldge all at the same time.
"We favor the immediate enactment
of a pension law by Congress provid
ing for a pension of not less than $1 a
day for all Union veterans of the Civil
war.
Income Tax Indorsed.
"We most heartily favor the ratification
of the proposed amendment to the Con
stitution of the United States authorizing
Congress to levy an Income tax.
"We are opposed to all subsidies by the
Government and we especially condemn
the present ship subsidy bill.
"We condemn the extravagant adminis
tration of the affairs of the Nation by the
Republican party.
"We favor the conservation of our na
tural resources for the benefit of the peo
ple and demand the withdrawal from en
try of our remaining timber, coal and iron
lands end water power sites.
"We favor an amendment to the Con
stitution of. the United States providing
for the election of United States Senators
by direct vote of the people."
The platform heartily commends United
States Senator B. F. Shively and the
Indiana Democratic Representatives In
Congress and the administration of the
affairs of the state by Governor Marshall.

lng to confess and had not implicated
other state officials.
Speaking of the demand made of him by
Church, Perkins stated today that the
Register not only demanded $15,000 for the
Spearman-Mason Interests, but he wanted
other bribe money. Perkinsdeclared he
was astounded by the proposition and im
mediately refused it, saying he would

branding Millions of Feet.
ABERDEEN, Wash.. April 28 (Spe
cial.) Charged with stealing millions
of feet of logs from loggers operating
on the Humptulips River, Edward San
burg was taken into cutody by Sheriff
Edward Payette. Information leading
to the arrest of Sanburg, which will
be used in his trial, was obtained
largely from Indians on the Quinault
Reservation.
Loggers on the Humptulips have
been victims of lumber thieves for
several years and for the past seven
months have had detectives working
to probe the mystery. It Is said that
Sheriff Payette's suspicions of Sanburg
were aroused when an attachment was
made on oertain logs by a man who
had been working for the alleged thief
for money due him.
The log marks on the stolen timber
were out off and new brands placed on
them.
A similar case arose here several
years ago over the theft of logs by
one James, who was working In con
nection with a prominent Hoqulam log
gingman. The case was ' settled by
James agreeing to plead guilty to a
charge of petty larceny and refund a
part of value of the stolen logs.

By Simply Eating a Little Pleasant
Tablet After Each of Them.
A Tablet Dlgents A Meal. Trial Faclt

When digestion is perfect the fluids
necessay to this process come natur
ally to the aid of the stomach. They
are of right proportion and do their
work speedily and well. When indi
gestion and dyspepsia are prevalent,
these same Juices come slowly if at all,
are weak and insufficient or are filled
with strong acids and alkalies.
When such a condition exists each
meal is a hardship upon the digestive
organs. The meal should strengthen
the Juices, but on the contrary it
weakens them, so that man by the very
act of eating causes conditions to arise
which of themselves bring him pain
and loathing for the next meal.
By eating one of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets you mix the tablet with your
saliva and it goes into your stomach a
strong, vigorous fluid, many times
more powerful than the natural diges

from natural vegetable and fruit es
sences and are composed from Hydras
