To Resume Work.
It is good news which we heard rel
atlve to the Southern taking up again
the work of double tracking its main
line between Washington and Atlan
ta. This work was suspended some
years ago, after quite a good deal of
the ' track between Washington ' an
Charlotte had been doubled. There
remains a good deal that has not Ibeen
double tracked, and this will be taken
up very soon, and these links includ
ed, and the entire stretch referred
to double-tracked. This, together with
the large improvement to shops and
rolling stock, will raise the equipmen
of the Southern very greatly. Every
section of the progressive south will
rejoice in the onward and progressive

we should always bear in mind that
they are hardly more than half civi

It Is Up to the House.
Lordy, lordy, just think of it! The
house must face a vote, probably this
week, on national prohibition. This
would have been a stunner some years
ago; it is had enough now, but still
the members know how to do it.
When a resolution came up in the
house years ago to eliminate the bar
rooms in the capitol, the house voted
for it every time, depending on the
other senate to kill it, which it did for some
years. Finally the dignified senatou

Washington, May 12. The recent
set of regulations prepared by An
thony Caminetti, commissioner
general emigration under the depart
ment of labor, to govern alien partici
pation in the Panama Pacific exposi
tion at San Francisco in 1915 may re
suit in gome interesting international
complications, it is believed at Wash
ngton. i
There is a statute of the United
out with States which forbids Chinese to enter
the United States. Under a special
treaty agreement Japanese are not
permitted to enter except in certain
circumstances. By the time the San
Francisco exposition takes place it is
believed in some quarters that legis
lation aiming at the exclusion
Hindus" which now is pending will
have become the law of the land
Now the United States government
does not wish to prevent citizens
such excluded peoples from partici
pating in a great international exposi
tion which' seeks to be in fact
world's fair. Wherefore certain regu
lations have been drawn up by the
commissioner of general immigration
which tend to waive the (immigration
laws under certain prescribed clr
cumstances and for certain nominated
terms.
These regulations say that exhibi
tors of nations, the citizens of which
are excluded from entry into the Uni
ted States msfy participate in the San
Francisco exposition, together with
their employer by giving $500 Ibond
by furnishing a photograph for identi
fication purposes and by presenting a
certificate making clear the fact tha
they have a bona fidt connection with
the exposition.
These regulations seem on their
face, to cover the case with fair com
pleteness. But a number of loopholes
have appeared, to provide for which
it is believed the commissioner gen
eral of immigration will have to pre
pare supplemental rules.
Supposing a chid is born of Chi
nese parents who are bona fide em
ployes of an exhibitor and who have
gained entrance to the country under
these special regulations. The re
vised statutes of the United States
set forth that any child born
in the United States is a citi
zen thereof whether or not his
father is a naturalized citizen. Therefore-
the immigration laws are set at
naught by the accident of birth under
this condition. Woufd the lUn.ed
States deport euch a child to China
because the entrance of Chinese na
tionals into this country is repugnant
to our laws? In all probability the
parents of the Chinese child would
take their offspring back home with
them when their day s work was at
an end. But, on the other hand, euch
conclusion is none too sound. The
advantages of American citizenship
are well known to the Chinese. They
have devised various means to gain
entry to thi3 country, with and with
out the consent of the authorities.
And what would be the course in
case of the commission of crime by
these alien participants, in the ex
position. On that point their status
will have to be more cleany detinea.
After a fashion their status partakes
cf the nature of the status of a for
eign ambassador The Chinese min
ister to the United States, for in
stance, is here only a for a time. All
envoyg of foreign government enjoy
a peculiar Imunity from punishmen
for crime, except in case of breach of
the peace and a few others. Would
these alien expositioners be entitled
to the same imunity?
And la cases of debt another diffl-
culty would arise. The laws of the
United States or of any of the several
states are explicit so far as regula
tions governing contracts, convey
ancea, notes and other legal business
matters are concerned bat jurisdic
tion does not extend beyond our na
tional boundaries. Under this lifting
of the immigration curtain for a sea
son, many Chinese and Japanese will
flock info the country and will engage
in all kinds of business. It appears
that the United States bureau of am
migration has by its liberality paved
the way for various complications
which may appear on the dockets of
the court of claims of this and other
countries for some years to come.
Foiled.
Billy Miller says a friend cf his has
been trying for two months to sell his
automobile.
"But he couldn't," reports the vera
cious Mr. Miller. He cut the price
down to almost nothing and didn't 'sei
bite. So the other day he got des
perate and put this advertisement '.i
the paper.
"I've rented a ten acre field oppo
site my house. In that field I shall
place the car I have been trying to
sell. The first man to that car after
o'clock tomorrow morning may
have it.' "
"And what happened?" you ask Mr,
Miller.
Well,' says the young man, "my
friend woke up early the next morn
ing and . looked ut, and there in the
field were four other cars." Herbert

At any rate when a prospective grand
mother urses her daughter to do as she
did to use "Mother's Friend," there is
ample reason to believe it the right kind
of advice.
"Mother's Friend" is an external ap
plication for expectant mothers. Its pur
pose is to furnish pliancy to tho muscles,
to take away the strain on the cords and
ligaments, to relieve the tension of nerves

ings of the limbs and so on.

the drug store for a bottle of "Mother's

expressed by thousands of happy mothers
who have successfully used this splendid
