"The correct statement la that the

no knowledge of any such channel as
Mr. Dodson describes."
It was also stated by Mr. Dodson
in connection with an artlel about

tember had an Influence In lower

"The amount of water In the Co

posted Ty the governor, and He
Chief Clark and Mr. Evans be-
lieve that it should be substan-
tial. The reward will not be

The chief Thursday received
a telegram from a sheriff in 0

ity that the suspect may have tfr

Washington, Nov. 26. (I. N. S.)
Mobilization of congress and the lay
ing of lines of battle for the com
mencement of the fray December 6
begins Monday. Developments of next
week will be more keenly watched by
the strategists than the actual opening
of congress Itself.
Numerous skirmishes are certain to
occur during the ser.ate Democratic
caucus. The main fight, however, is
expected to center about the cloture
resolution which Senator Owens will
introduce. It is believed the confer
ence will approve the resolution and
this means a fight on the floor from
the start. There also will be a battle
over the selection of a president-protein
and a floor leader.
The ways and means committee will
have a knotty problem to solve in the
way of meeting the government deficit.

GET IT FIRST-NOT LAST
When a cold grips your system it
shows that your condition is weak
enedremember that. You should
not trust your strength to throw it
off, because neglected colds have
brought more sickness than any

cathartics and stimulating syrups
are depressing and dangerous.
The one best treatment for any
cold the one so often relied on when
others fail, is the powerful blood
nourishment in Scott's Emulsion
which feeds the very sources of
bodily strength to suppress the
present cold and generate strength to
thwart further sickness.
Get Scott's first, not last and insist
