The Chinese revolution is an in
teresting subject in California.
Following are San TTranclsco dis
patches, carried by the Associated
Press: Advices were received here
by the Chung Sai Yat Po newspaper
that the revolutionists in China' have
declared a republic, electing Li Yuen
Hung, lieutenant commander of the
imperial new army, president.
"This revolution means either a
Chinese republic or no China at all,"
said Tong King Chong, secretary of
the Gee Hong Tong for all America,
Mexico and Canada included.
"If we are not successful the
Chinese will be as much a people
without a country as the Jews."
For the last five or six years,
according to Chong, southern China
has been ripe for the revolt. North
ern China was not ready, however,
and Dr. Sun Yat Sen and others held
the rising in check while a campaign
How to Get Rid
of Catarrh
A Simple Safe, Reliable Way, and it
Costs Nothing to Try.
Those who suffer from catarrh
know its miseries. There is no need
of this suffering. You can get rid of
it by a simple, safe, inexpensive,
home treatment discovered by Dr.
Blosser, who, for over thirty-six
years, has been treating catarrh suc
cessfully. His treatment is unlike any other.
It is not a spray, douche, salve,
cream, or Inhaler, but is a more
direct and thorough treatment than
any of these. It cleans out the head,
nose, throat and lungs so that you
can again breathe freely and sleep
without that stopped-up feeling that
all catarrh sufferers have. It heals
the diseased mucous membranes and
arrests the foul discharge, so that
you will not be constantly blowing
your nose and spitting, and at the
same time it does not poison the
system and ruin the stomach, as
internal medicines do.
If you want to test this treatment
without cost, send your address to
Dr. J. W. Blosser, 144 Walton
Street, Atlanta, Ga., and he will
send you by return mall enough of
the medicine to satisfy you that it
is all he claims for it as a remedy
for catarrh, catarrhal headaches,
catarrhal deafness, asthma, bronchi
tis, colds and all catarrhal complica
tions. He will also send you free an
illustrated booklet. Write him immediately.
of education was carried on. The
result, Chong said, was apparent In
the declaration of whole regiments
of Imperial troops for the revolution.
An Associated Press dispatch from
Baltimore says: In the United
States circuit court here Judge John
C. Hose rendered a decision in favor
of the government in Its dissolution
suit against the Standard Sanitary
Manufacturing company and others,
the so-called "bath tub" trust. Judge
Pritchard concurred with Judge
Hose, while Judge Goff dissented that
the decision is most sweeping in its
character. Edwin P. Grosvenor,
special assistant to the United States
attorney, and United States District
Attorney Philip Hill of Baltimore,
who conducted the. case for the gov
ernment, stated that the decision
supports the government's conten
tion on every point.
The action was brought under the
Sherman anti-trust law. In case of
an appeal it will go direct to the
United States supremo court.
While this decision Is in a sepa
rate case from the criminal action
against the alleged trust at Detroit,
the proceedngs concern the same
subject matter and are against the
same defendants.
Under the court's ruling Edwin
L. Wayman, patentee of an enamel
dredger, who Issued licenses of the
patent to the defendant concerns, is
held as much subject to the laws
governing monopoly as any other
man, and while he still has the right
to exclude all others from making
use of his patents "he can not have
the right to sell Indulgences" In
Violation of the anti-trust aci. It
was on the patent holdings of Way
man that the fifty defendants in the
case upheld the right of their action
in the combine and the government
maintains that this was but a sub
terfuge. Judge Goff's opinion In dissent
was very brief. He held that "the
facts established by the testimony
considered in the light of the law
applicable thereto compel me to con
clude that the allegations of the
petition have not been sustained."
Francisco Madero was inaugurated
as president of Mexico.
