i • V ' i ,SENATORS ATTACK ‘ LEAGUE COVENANT Debate in Senate Continues T Bitter-Senator R^d Leads Attack Senator Hitchock Makes Heated Reply to Missonri Democrat and Draws Forth Reply from Senator Knox Mho Said Supporters , of League “SBCTTO BWifl I'uveifgnf Defime Al» V tempting Its Defense. Washington, May 26.—The league of nations was debated In the senate again today with an Increasing show of bitterness. Senator Reed, Democrat, of Mis souri, attacked the proposal in such vigorous terms that he aroused re peated objections from senators sup porting it and developed a running debate colored by dramatic accusa tions and heated reports. The Mis souri senator declared the league , would place the destinies of the white race in the hands of ignorant and superstitious nations of black and yel low populations and charged that many Democrats were supporting it for partisan reasons.- In frequent ' interruptions of the Missouri senator’s speech, Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska, ranking Dem ocrat of the foreign relations commit tee, insisted that the premises for these charges were false and that the inferences drawn were unfair and dan- —gerous, - He drew 4n-tuw a-reply- from Senator Knox, Republican, of Pennsyl vania, who suggested that supporter*} of the league convenant should read it before they discussed it. So heated did the exchange become at one point that the chair rapped for order and Senator Reed declared that Senator Hitchcock had “lost his tem per.” The measure which brought the league issue before the senate was the resolution of Senator Johnson, Republican, of California, requesting from the State Department the full text of the peace treaty. There was no attempt to report a vote on the resolution, on which debate began last Friday, and the measure went ov er again as unfinished business to* come up when the Senate reconvenes Wednesday. Without speaking directly on the Johnson resolution. Senator Reed made a general attack upon the league covenant itself as a proposal to hand over control of the white race and the civilized world to an assembly of nations where a majority always could be brought together on any race question ini opposition to white su premacy. He declared support of the league plan never could be explained at home by snators from the South, with its negro problem, or from the "If a Republican president had brought in here—if Roosevelt had brought it here—there is not a Dem ocrat that wouldn’t have been stand ing by my side fighting to the last ditch to rescue the country from a monstrous and so cruel a thing.” Southern Democrats particularly were chided for refusing to recognize the negro as an equal' at the baTlOt box, but at the same time accepting South Africa and other nations where the black race predominates as mem bers of the league assembly on an equality with the United. States. J 'You think you can control the voi of the bladk race,” he asserted, "but ^ -retary-qf West, (with its Chinese and Japanese problems. Turning dramatically to his Democratic colleague, he continu ed: on any question of ra$e equality you never will be able to do it.” To support his prediction that the black, yellow, brown and red races would combine to embarrass the white race, Senator Reed cited the amend ment offered by Japanese delegates at Paris to the league covenant guar anteeing race equality. Although the amendment failed, he said, the Japan ese delegates reserved the right to bring it later before the league for determination. He also quoted from a periodical published by negroes in this country a passage declaring a league of na tions or some other “international power” to be "absolutely necessary for the salvation of the negro race," in view of treatment of the negroes in the United States and South Africa. T PRESCRIBE THE NEW CALOMEL Of all the medicines in the world doctors prescribe calomel most often and depend upon It most universally. There must be a good and sufficient reason—what is it? If you will study the doctors’ books you will find that the medical authori ties prescribe calomel for almost ev ery disease. The reason i» that calo mel is the greatest and only thorough system-purifier. It makes the liver active, drives out the poisons from the stomach, bowels and kidneys and thereby purifies the blood. Calomel puts the entire system in the most favorable condition for Nature to ex ercise her recuperative power. That is why he prescribes calomel so often. The new kind of calomel, called “Calotabs;'” is refined and purified from air of the nauseating and dan gerous qualities of the old style -calo mel and is rapidly taking its place, for it is more effective than the old style calomel as a liver-cleanser and sys tem-purifier. One Calotab at bedtime, with a swallow of water—that’s aR. tesF No salts, no nausea, nor the slightes unpleasantness. Next morning you awake feeling flne^with a hearty ap petite for breakfast Elat what you please. No restrictions of habit or diet. ——— Calotabs are sold only in original, sealed packages, price thirty-five cents. Recommended and guaranteed by druggists everywhere.

Shealy, chairman of the railroad' com mission, says: “We desire’ to call the attention of the commission to some very deplor able conditions existing at the union passenger depot here from which the public suffer. “Our observation Is that the signs directing travellers to trains and tracks are not placed as they should be. Very .frequently they are not to be seen, anywhere except in a pile near the steps, undistributed through out the track floor. These signs should be placed conspicuously and the tracks should be numbered so that passengers would have no difficulty in getting on the proper train. Another thing is the walkway is generally so crowded with express trucks that it is with great difficulty that passengers can get to and from the coaches. It seems to us that with a little judgment this difficulty could be avoided. The sanitary condition throughout the building is very bad. This is particu larly true of the closets, which in their present condition are a menace to health and should be looked after immediately. BUNGALOW NO. 80 .

Camp Jackson.—“We are going to be discharged by the 15th of June,” is the assertion of nearly every enlisted man of Camp Jackson. No amount of proof to the contrary will be accepted. They know that they are. Camp head quarters has made no announcement that the emergency personal now sta tioned there is to be discharged at all. Within the past few days the ru mor has been strengthened by men receiving mail from home saying there was an order to discharge all emerg ency men now stationed in the can tonments. Newspapers in various cities have been quoted in the-letters. Dozens of men have had these and have lost no time in spreading the glad news. A man usually believes what he wants to believe with little proof. Consequently as the recruits continue to fill the organizations it is natural that someone should be d!»- charged. , It vviil be interesting to the people of Clinton to know that the A. C.
