ngalnst Senator W. N Hoach of North Da-
liota shall bo Introduced in the senate next

decided that the scnnto hns the power to fix

fnct that Senator Roach's nllcgcd crooked

It was settled , to bar the senate from acting.
During the discussion of the proposition
to Investigate Senator Hoach's character ,
I Senator Wolcott of Colorado made n speech

ho scored the jiosslblllty of rascals In private

which would coma upjn the sanito if it per
mitted rascals to sit as mcinbcts of It In

that the rank of Mr Hustis , the newli ap

Gio.it Britain should make the lirst response
to the suggestion cofitullicd in thodiplomallo

as send ambassadors heio , such promotions
w ill amount to a now appointment and must

of ambassador is another , and , as such , ic-

Why
Are they Wanted ?
Because they never spoil nice
desserts.
Because the cakes , pudding ? ,
creams , etc. , are made to
please the most refined taste.
Because they are extracted by
a new method , from the true
fruit , so that each has its own
natural and distinctive char
acter. That is why Dr.
Price's Delicious Flavoring
Extracts , Lemon , Orange ,
Vanilla , etc. , are \vanted. To
the connoisseur the difference
between them and the com

great that it cannot be ex
