OLD SOLDIER WISHES TO HELP
SUFFERERS FROM KIDNEY,

TROUBLES y
I am frequently troubled with kidney
and bladder trouble, especially In the
spring ana rait Being an old Veteran
of the Civil War. a little exposure or
eoia settles on my kidneys, and then
am laid up with kidney or bladder
trouble. Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root was
recommended to me a number of years
ago, and I took a number of bottles of It
nd was more than pleased With the re
sults. I consider Swamp-Root the great
est and best kidney medicine on the
market and it never falls to give quick
results in kidney trouble, bladder trou
ble and lame back.
- Dr. Kilmers Swamp-Root has done
me so much good that X feel If any
words of mine will be the means of re
lieving any poor sufferers, that you are

Senator Crawford Protests on
Floor Against Whitewash
ed Report; Lorimer Could
Not Have Been Ignorant.-
iValtri Prew Lued Wlr. "-'
Washington, Jan. 10. Senator Craw
ford Of South Dakota bitterly attacked
Senator Lorimer of Illinois today, charg
ing that he must have known of the
corrupt practices employed Jn electing
blm. The election of State Represent
ative Shurtleff as speaker of the lower
house of the Illinois legislature, Craw
ford said, was the "first step In the
corrupt program." '
"The next move," be continued, "was
to Install Lee O'Neill Browne as minor
ity leader."
He reviewed the testimony of the rep
resentatives and senators who confessed
In connection with- the bribery charges.
"The strength of this testimony is not
broken by Its association with Stats Rep
resentatives White, Beckemeyer, Holt
slaw and Link, self-confessed criminal.
They are contemptible people, I readily
grant, but there Is something so con
sistent in the' theory that Lorimer pur
chased them, and something so com
pletely antagonistic in the theory, that
they were honest votes .cast In Lari
mer's favor, that I cannot escape the
conviction that these men betrayed their
honor and blackened the fair name of
the state for paltry dollars and permit
ted Browne and Broderick to sell them
like pawns to Shurtleff and Lorimer."
Crawford drscussed at length the tes
timony Introduced in Lorlraer's behalf.
This testimony rails miserably of us
purpose," be said. "Its only tendency
is further confirmation and corroborative-proof
that Lorimer was unlawfully
ejected. I wish I could believe that
Lorimer . Himself did. not know that
fraud was being committed. I regret
to say lt but I personally believe that
Lorimer knew enougn aDout wnat was
going on In Springfield to prove to any
reasonably prudent man upon Inquiry
that Browne and Shurtleff were his
political agents, and that he ratified
their acts and accepted the results of
their corrupt practices, of which be
must have had knowledge. I may be
wrong, but I am willing that the report
of this subcommittee be adopted with
out protest" . V

1 Broadway Bridge Before'
the Contract Js Let: , ,
agent of the leading railroads of the
south mot in eonferenoe here today to
discuss plans for the "Back Home Move
ment, recently Initiated by ths Caro
lina. Cllnchfleld& Ohio railway. The
plan of Immigration suggested meets
with ' the enthusiastic approval of the
railroads ' generallyt The prospects are
that all .the Important roads in the
south will join in the movement, and
that the long talked of question of Im
migration for the south will at last be
placed on a practical working basis. .
The ways and meanes commutes of
the city council yesterday recommendod
passage of an ordinance appropriating
3557,000 from the Broadway bridge fund.
The action of the committee was taken
at the request of the executive board,;
wnicn nas oeiore it a numoer or bids ror
the construction of the substructure of
the new viaduct to span the river on
Broadway street. Before a contract can
be let the board must ; have the funds
necessary to meet the contract The
amount to be appropriated will cover
the lowest bid for the job, that of the
Union Bridge & Construction company
of Kansas City.
The committee, of which only threi
members, Councllmen Baker, Rushlight
and Cellars, were present, expressed
Itself as favorable to the appointment
of an assistant clerk of ths municipal
pourt, In accordance with ths recommen
dations of Judge Taswell. . The com
mittee will take offtolal action In this
matter , later on, when the sessions to
make 'appropriations from ths general
runa are neia.
That the city should pay claims for
salaries of its employes when employes
have been incapacitated for work by rea
son of injuries sustained while in the
performance of duty, was the strongly
expressed opinion of the counclln.en. It
makes no difference whether the em
ployes have obtained damages for their
injuries from some other source, either,
according to the views of the committee.
John Zellner and John McLeod, two fire
men, had made claims amounting to
1308 for salaries they thought should
be paid them while they were Idle, fol
lowing an accident In which they came
Into .collision with a street car on their
way to a f Ira The executive board re
fused to allow ths claim beoause the
men had received damages from the
Portland Railway. Light & Power com
pany. In a letter to the council com
mittee yesterday afternoon, the men de
clared the amount , they recctved, from
the company was ' little more than
enough to meet expenses for medicine
and medical attention.

Tacoma, Wash., Jan. 10, Deputies
from the sheriffs office went early to
day to Dieringer, a. small town, near
Sumner, to assist posses of cltlsens in
their hunt for the two highwaymen who
shot and killed FTed Barnett, proprietor
of a saloon at Dieringer, late last night'
The bandits were attempting to hold up
the place, in -which were several men
besides Barnett Particulars of the af
fair are unobtainable because of the lack
of communication with the scene of the
crime. It is learned, however, that both
the thugs wore masks and each carried
a revolver.. Apparently, Barnett did not
comply quickly enough, or offered re
sistance, for he was shot dead by the
bandits, who then robbed the other men
In the saloon and fled.
