(From a Staff Correspondent)
WASHINGTON, April 19.-(Spclal Tele-
gram.) Congressman Lobeck has punc
tured the Income tax provision of tho
tariff bill, which has been under discus
Ion since Woodrow Wilson came Into
power. I.olieck has shown his contempt
for the platform on which he was elected
by voting In caucus for a tax on wool
and against free sugar. Today Lobeck
sent cold shivers down the back of his
colleagues by sugegstlng an amend
ment to tho Income tax provision provid
ing that tho proceeds of life insurance
policies paid upon the death of the per
son Insured shall not be Included as In
come. It was n rift In the cloud and tyobeck
got away with it because the amend
ment Beemed to bridge the difference be
tween affluence nnd starvation. And the
amendment will be Included In the tariff
bill which Is misappropriate entitled,
"An Act to Raise Rovenue."

"Being anxious to preserve and

fully but most earnestly advises against
the uso of the word 'Ineligible to citizen

to tho attention of tho legislature. He be
lieves the senate bill as telegraphed to the
Department of State Is greatly to be pre
ferred. That bill limited ownership to
citizenship to those who had declared
their Intention to become citizens.
"W. J. BRYAN."
Tho telegram was Immediately trans
mitted to tho senate nnd assembly In a
special message signed by the governor.
The messago was rend In both houses
and was ordered printed In the Journals
without discussion.
Two other telegrams, one from the
Portland (Ore.) Chamber of Commerce
and tho other from the Young Barristers'
association of Toklo, both protesting
against the enactment of an antl-allen
land law, were read In the senate.
No action on tho message of the gov
ernor containing the Bryan telegram will
be taken until next week. This was an
nounced officially by the floor leaders in
the upper house this morning.
Secretary Bryan's telegram called forth
varied comment from members of tho
legislature, many nf whom likened It to
the messages sent by President Roosevelt
six years ago and President Taft four
years ago when legislation was pending In
California.
Senator Boynton, progressive republican
nnd floor leader In tho upper house, said:
"It Is not surprising thnt the democratic
administration nt Washington has taken
the same position that was tnen by
Roosevelt and Taft. It is impossible to
predict tho outcome, but I believe that
notwithstanding the views of the presi
dent an equitable alien land bill be
passed."
Senutor Blrdsall, whose name Is on tho
committee aubstltuto bill, believes that
California has full rights In the mntter.
'While Secretary Bryan's message Is
citlted to consideration," ho said, "It does
not change the situation. It is up to the
people of allfornla, first to determine
whether they have a right, to enact such
a law, and, second, whether they wish, to
do so. Ah for that, the attitude of the
state toward alien land legislation Is beat
shown by tho vote of 60 to 16 In favor of
the bill In the assembly."
Senator Thompson, who drafted the
original committee substitute, said:
"Tho position taken by President WII-,
son Is exactly In lino with that taken by
Taft and Roosevelt under similar clrcum
stunces. It completely robs tho subject
of any partisan character whatsoever.
iThe fran expression of preference for the
senate bill Indicates clearly the attitude
of the federal administration as favoring
a. Inw that would apply to nil aliens nllke.
"In view of tho pending amendmeii
which sock to limit Its application to
stockholders of corporations who are ell-,
glble to citizenship and exclude those who
are Ineligible, 'this expression Is very
timely."

TheWorking Man'sFriend
In Time of Sickness
1 am a blacksmith by trado and wouK
like to say a word to all who have to
work hard and suffer with their kidneys.
I sufforcd for about ten years and was
treated by a Waynesboro, Va., Doctor.
He said that I had Brlght's Disease and
that he had dono all ho could for me. I
read about Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root and
as I could hardly do a day's work, was
willing to try anything that would do me
any good. After taking Swamp-Root a
few days I felt so much hotter that I
continued until I felt that I was cured
and I was altogether a new man. That
was eight years ago and If I ever feel
the least pain about my kidneys 1 Just
take a few doses of Swamp-Root and In
a few days I am all right. I feel today
that I am a well man and would say to
all who suffer with their kidneys, take
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, for It has
done more for me than all the doctors,
and saved doctors' bills.
I can further say that about two years
ago my son was sick In bed and was
taking medtclno from doctors and got
worse all the time. I went In tho night
and got a fifty-cent bottle of Swamp
Root and told him to lay aside all the
doctors' medicines and take Swamp-Root.
He took six bottles and I nm glad to
say that he is well today and has not
had any trouble with his kldnoya since.
It was Swamp-Root that cured him. My
son now thinks that there Is no medi
cine that a doctor can give that can
compare with Dr. Kilmer s Swamp-Root.
