Washington,. May 18. Discussion of
-hther high prices In the United
FUtea are caused by the tariff or by
the. extortions of Jobbers and retailers
. occupied the senate today. The discus
sion arose in connection with the reso
lution Introduced Baturday by Senator
Gore, the blind statesman from Okla
homa, which demanded that a commlt
tee investigate this condition.
. Senator Aldrich suggested that the
resolution be referred to the senate
finance committee, stating that it was
proper that this committee should deal
with it, as such an Investigation would
Involve considerable time and expene.
Carter of Montana ooposed the res
olution, suggesting that the same sort
of investigation was already provided
for In the pending amendment to the
tariff bill looking to the appointment
of a commission of experts for the In
vestigation of all matters pertaining
Jo the tariff.
Gore declared that the Republican
senators who had charged the retailers
with the responsibility for the high
J prices had discovered that they had
: stepped on a live wire and were now
trying to retrace. He said he had fin
ally suggested the appointment of a
elect committee to make the Inquiry,
In view of the fact that the finance
" committee was so busily engsged In
calculating the cost of labor here and
abroad.
Gore Insisted that a select committee
..-could report witnin three weeks on
whether or not examples recently shown
v the senate regarding -rloes raised he
. tween the manufacturer and consumer
;were true.
- a Carter opposed this, asserting thai
such an Investigation would renulrp two
' years. He made a strong protection
speech and asserted that the Demo
crats were requesting Information al

tvrs should have found out for them.-

Opinion.
The tonic treatment with Dr. Wil
liams' Pink. Pills for run-down condi
tions of the health is based on souna
medical Drlnclnles and on common sense.
More and more men and women are be
ginning to realise that pure, red blood
means health and that the efficiency of
any tissue or organ is entirely depend
ent upon the quality of the blood.
There are thousands of Deoole. who
are without ambition or strength to do
their day s work and who are always
tired out. have but little appetite and a
poor digestion, cannot get a refreshing
nisht's sleep and are subject to head
aches, backaches and nervousness be
cause their blood is impure.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills give quick
relief and permanently cure such men
and women because they purify and
build up the blood to Its normal
strength. As the blood becomes pure
and red it strengthens the muscles,
tones up the nerves, makes the stomach
capable of digesting the food, and re
pairs the wastes caused by growth and
work.
Mrs. George Morgan, of No. 115
Twenty-third street, Detroit, Mich.,
says:
"I suffered with general ability for
over a year after gradually declining in
health from overwork. I had but little
blood, no strength or ambition and was
weak ana tnin. iy appetue was poor.
I was reduced In flesh and was all tired
out. I felt miserable all the time ana
could not do any work. I was sent on a
visit to relatives with the hope that a
rhana-e would benefit me. but after sev
eral weeks I had not Improved.
Most of this time I was taking me
doctor's medicine without benefit and
was getting discouraged. My aunt
urged me to try Vr. Williams' Pink
Pills. They gave me a better appetite.
I gained in flesh and strength and took
the pills until cured. Since then I have
been strong, robust and healthy."
A booklet. Diseases or me moon,
showina- what Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
have done in anaemia and other blood
diseases, will be sent free upon request.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or sent by mall, postpaid,
