modate all the applicants.

elected member of parliament from
Dublin last year, but who refused to
take her seat owing to her Sinn-Fein
affiliations, was in London over the
week-end and her presence created
curiosity as to whether she meant to
forestall Lady Astor in taking a seat
in the house of commons by making
a dramatic appearance there.
The countess, however, went today
to Manchester.
Duchess AIho Ambitious.
The duchess of Marlborough, for
merly Miss Consuelo Vanderbilt of
New York, who intends to become a
candidate for the first suitable va
cancy in parliament, has, since her
election to the London city council

with the question of housing the
'poorer people. She is reputed to be
remarkably popular among her con
stituents, who inhabit one of the
dingiest neighborhoods of south London.

They asserted that Governor Ches
ter Harding, without giving them any
explanation, had refused them per
mission to land.
Severs, who is assistant to the
president of the United Brotherhood
of Maintenance of Way Employes and
Railway Shop laborers, and Stair,
'general organizer of the brotherhood,
' ga'id jerrnission to land at Limon also
had been refused them by Provisional
President Francisco Aguilar Barquero
pf 'Coata Rica.
Passports Found Correct.
The two labor men said they could
assign no reason for the action of
Governor Hard'ng and President Bar
quero,' for in addition to passports
signed by Secretary of State Lansing,
they carried credentials from Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor; Senator Kdge
and Representative Hutchinson of
New Jersey.
Immigration officials here found
their papers correct and permitted
them to land today.
The only reason which the labor
men, both of whom live in Trenton,
N. J., eaid they could attribute for
Governor Harding's 1 action was the
fact that on a voyage down the coast
they had become involved in a dis-
'agreement with a .fellow passenger,
who, they added,'- had lodged com
plaint with boarding officers at Cris
tobal. According to their version.
they had objected. to a remark which
ha
was glad he had never become an
American," and that ill feeling had
followed.
Landing; Im Kot Permitted.
On reaching Limon, they said, thej
had placed their case In the hani of
Jose Joaquin Soto, ex-Costa Rican
-congressman, who took up the ques
tion with President Barquero. Soto,
the labor men said, reported he had
received from President Barquero a
telegram stating he had been notified
to expect the arrival - of the labor
leaders.- He added that he felt he
could not allow them to land, as this
privilege had been .refused them by
their own country.
Severs, the headquarters of whose
organization is in Detroit, said he had.
organized 9000 of the 12,000 canal
zone workers on a visit lasting from
March -to May. He said that besides
waterway employes, the British, with
a membership of 310,000, included
carpenters. painters, machinists
helpers, masons and other skilled and
semi-skilled workers.
Police Stationed on Dock
' "I presume that a strong feeling
resulted from the fact that I organ
ized the negroes in the zone, who had
never been organized before," said
Severs, who added that at Cristobal
"uniformed members of the local mil
itary police were stationed on the
dock to prevent us from landing."
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1. Officials
at the war department said tonight
that no word had been received from
Governor Harding concerning his re

SEATTLE, Wash., Dec. 1. Spe
cial.) Unless Senator Poindexter
wants-an earlier meeting of the re
publican state committee. State Chair
man Samuel A. Walker will convene
the party committee in Seattle on
February 12, with the idea In mind of
calling a delegate convention for some
date in March or AprlL
The committee meeting in Seattle on
February 12 would give the young
men's republican club an opportunity
to make its annual Lincoln day ban
quet a semi-official gathering of the
republican leaders from all parts of
the state. The banquet would be held
in the evening of a day given .'ver
to party business and the combination
of a state committee gathering and
banquet would serve as a magnet to
bring party workers to the city.
Chairman "Walker believes.
A great deal depends, Mr. Walker
rankly admits, upon the wishes of
Senator Poindexter. The Spokane
solon is a candidate for president and
wishes the indorsement of his home
state. Members of the congressional
district. Chairman. Walker, National
Committeeman S. A. Perkins and most
of the county chairmen have agreed
to support Poindexter, so Mr. walker
takes it as a matter of course that
the delegate convention will be called
whenever it fits best into the Poin
dexter programme.
All l to Poindexter.
Many of the states either hold
early preferential primaries or con
ventions and several months ago
Poindexter told state politicians that
he believed his political fortunes
would improve if his home state got
nto line early with an indorsement.
On the theory that the resolution is
going to be adopted pledging the
state's delegation to the republican
national convention to Poindexter,
Chairman Walker is willing to set the
party machinery moving when Poin
dexter gives the word.
The republican national committee
is called to meet in Washington, D.
C, on December 10 and will fix the
date of the national convention at
that time. It would be in order at
any time after he receives official
notice of this call for State Chairman
Walker to summon the members of
the state committee to fix a time and
place for holding this state's conven
tion. In ordinary circumstances there
would be no rush about the state
meeting, for it is unlikely that the
national convention will meet before
June, and It is customary to allow
the states to hold conventions as late
as May, or a month prior to the na
tional convention.
Some Contcotn Possible.
Thus far Chairman Walker has re
celved no intimation as to the wishes
of party leaders for the state con
vention, and if there is to be a tignt
over the meeting place no community
has considered it worth while to tip
off the fact that I; will be an early
contender. The only thing at all cer
tain is that unless somebody objects.
Chairman Walker will bring his com
mittefmen here in February.
This state is entitled to 14 dt-le
gates ad a like number of alter
nates in the republican national con
vention two delegates and two al
ternates from each of the five con
gressional districts and four dele
gates and "our alternates to be elect
ed bv the convention at large.
There have been rumors of forth
coming fights for places on the dele
gation, but very few of the pros
pective candidates have done more
than discuss the possibility of their
going. A struggle over the election
of national committeeman also is in
prospect, but despite the early rumors
there has been no lineup thus far. It
is probable that the politicians will
begin to take notice of the coming
contests after the national committee
has met and launched the campaign
by issuing its call.

GAINS 30 POUNDS
After Taking Tanlac Feels Bet
ter Than in Fifteen Years.
T can certainly recommend Tanlac
for it was six months ago that it en
tirely overcame all my fifteen years
of troubles, and today I am still in
perfect health," said Mrs. T. T. Smith,
who lives at the corner ot Slauson
and Alameda streets, Los Angeles,
CaL
"Before I began taking Tanlac I
had suffered so long that I didn't
think I would ever get anything that
would help me, but now I am feeling
better than I have in fifteen years
and have actually gained thirty
pounds in weight, why. it seems al
most too good to be true. I was in an
awful condition, with no appetite to
speak of, and indigestion gave me so
much trouble that I was really afraid
to eat anything, for I knew if I did I
would be troubled with gas and pains
In my stomach for hours afterwards.
Sometimes the pains were so bad I
could hardly bear for my clothing to
touch me, and at night they were
even worse, and I would have to get
up and drink hot water or eat a
cracker before I could get relief and
go to sleem I lost so much sleep that
I began to fall off in weight and I got
so weak that all the time I went
around feeling tired and worn out.
Tou can Imagine that after all the
long years ot troubles when every
medicine and treatment I had tried
failed to do me any good I was very
blue and discouraged.
"But at last I started taking Tanlac,
as I had read so -much about it. and,
to my surprise, I began to improve
almost at once, and that encouraged
me so that I kept on taking it until
all my troubles had left me. I eat
anything I want without ever being
troubled in any way with indiges
tion, and am so much heavier that I
have had to make nearly all my
clothes over. My sleep la sound and
restful and when I get up every
morning I feel refreshed and I can do
my housework with ease no. . Every
one of my friends have spoken of
how well I look and, as I haven't
taken a. dose of any, kind of medicine
since Tanlac restored me to complete
neaitn six months ago. I know that
all my troubles have left me forever."
