The chief amendment was ens Intro duced by Chairman Flint and Is de signed to encourage the establishment of lines of independently owned Tea sels. The amendment asks the President to nx the freight and passenger charges for nslng the canal, but freight charges must not be less than SO cents nor more than $1-50 per net ton. It Is provided also that no charges shall be paid for vessels in ballast, nor for ves sels owned or operated for or on ac count of the United States Government, or for merchant vessels of the United States engaged in the coastwise trade, of this country. A proviso Is added, however, that the exemptions shall not apply to any ves sel in coastwise trade which la owned In whole or In part, or which is con trolled, directly or indirectly, by any railroad company. The proviso refers especially to such railroad companies as seek to avoid or reduce the effect of the competition ef ocean traffic between eastern and west ern seaboards of the United States, on transcontinental railway rates. The effect of the amendment would bo to deny free passage of the canal to the ships of the Pacific Wall Steam ship Company or any line which has connection witb transcontinental rail roads. Another proviso would authorize the United States to take for Its own use any vessel which accepts free toll and pay for the same at a fair valuation, to be determined afterward.

Standpatters Are Silent. TOPEKA. Kan.. Jan. 7. (Special) The query among Kansas politicians Is. will William Allen White and Gov ernor Stubbs break, over the election of a Speaker of the House of Repre sentatives? The Kansas Legislature convenes 'here next Tuesday, and up to the present time the Speakership fight is In the air. The contest Is wholly within the Insurgent camp. The 21 stand-patters and the 64 Democrats are maintaining a remarkable silence. What It all means no one has been able to guess. The Insurgents have taken It for granted that the stand-pat Republi cans will Join them In caucus, giving the two factions a 'good working ma jority over the Democrats. But there is no real evidence that this will hap pen. A number of the stand-pat mem bers have written to Topeka friends that they are opposed to the cauous plan of selecting a Speaker, and the presiding officer should be elected on the floor of the House. That may mean all kinds of trouble. Robert Stone, a prominent Insurgent member from Shawnee County. Is lead ing. In the contest for Speaker. The other two candidates. O. H. Buckman. of Wlnfield and Cliff Mattson. of Wichita, are claiming pledges enough to Insure their nomination. If the stand-pat members go into caucus and help to name a Speaker. Robert Stone say he baa pledges from 10 members who have agreed to stand firm o ths snd. If this fight over the Speakership causes a permanent break between William Allen White and Governor Stubbs. It will be a severs blow to the Insurgent cause In Kansas. For White has been the official mouthpiece and press agent of the Stubbs administra tion, and while William Allen White has been the Governor's chief promoter la bis political ambitions, bis first and hl.k..t nkll..(lnn 1. n CunatAr T3rla tu..vat tow. wnite was unsiow s rau8cf when he defeated Senator Long and future political horizon to see If there Is any danger ahead.

She was very weak from night sweats, cough, and in a feverish condition. I noticed a change for the better after ten days' treatment, and from that time on up to three months, when the cure was completed. Alcsol (Lloyd) kills the Tubercle Bacillus In the blood and tissue, and It Is the only remedy so far dis covered that will do this. It Is a pre ventative as well as a cure. It should be used by those who are run down, or those who fear the approach of Con sumption. It can be truthfully said that Alcsol (Lloyd), for the cure and pre vention of Consumption, Is the most wonderful compound of thepresentage." DR. W. H. KNIGHT. J. A. Ward, M.

I believe you have one of the best remedies ever offered to the people. I believe It to be a general reoonstructor of tissue and Indicated in all cases where a reconstructor Is called for. I have used Alcsol (Lloyd) for nearly five yeara. and know what I am talking about. Once the remedy becomes generally known there will be but little trouble disposing of It.
