This trade exists only in response
to the demand OF the American people
tor whisky, beer. and wine. and we ask
the people TO recognize this quest on
OF national prohibition as one that
concerns them more than it does any
faction or trade because it involves the
preservation of American institutions
and the principle OF local scIf-Sovern-
ment.
We believe and the experience OF
the fourteen States that have tried and
abandoned prohibition confirms the be-
lief, that true temperance can be best
promoted by sound laws licensing. regu-
lating. and controlling the manufacture
and sale of liquors.
We therefore ask the people of the
United States to refuse assent to all
prohibition amendments, to preserve
the Constitution as Governmental
charter. to safeguard the States from
restriction of their sovereignty and to
protect the country from the disaster Of
an injury to its organic law"

EATING RELIEVES
STOMACH TROUBLE
4 Prominent PhysicIan's Advice.

Eat good foods and plenty Of them.
Dieting. in many cases is almost Grim
inal. Get back TO normal. OTo do so
you must have the proper quantity Of
nourishment. You need II for brain or
physical work. Probably there is moth
ing the matter with your stomach eN-
cept acidity. That is merely an ahnor-
NAL secretion of acid in the stomach.
NeutraIizc that acid and your stomach
trouble will end at once. Neglect may
mean ulcers of the stomach. Do not
take patented medicines or pepsin tab
let's for dyspepsia. Simply take a neu-
trsIizcr of acid. Decidedly the best
neutralizer is ordinary bisurated mag
nesia. Il is inexpensive and you can
get it at any drug store. Take tcn-
spoonful in a quarter glass of water
after each meal. The relief will be
immediatc.'-Advt.

law, the state industrial commission
turns to the broader economic and
humane side. This is the notion which
it will strive to press home in the big

presages success for the experiment:

Victor T. Noonan, in immediate charge
of the preparations, that practically all
the available space in the exposition
already has been taken. 1t is not to
be used to give publicity to anything

limb of workmen. Since the project
was launched three states, Pennsylva-
MIA, New Jersey and Wisconsin, have

WAR TO BOOM TRADE.
ONE YEAR OF FIGHTING TO NET
UNITED STATES $500, 100000
INCREASE.
BUREAU EXPERT HAS DATA
Bases His Estimates After Careful
Study-Problems Of Delivery Still
Have to Be Met-WiII Help All Busi-
ness

Washington, Dec. 4-That one year
of war in Europe will add $500,000.-
900 to the foreign commerce of the
United States is the estimate of Ed
ward E. Pratt, chief of the bureau Of
foreign and domestic commerce.
Mr.. Pratt has just completed a
study of the reports of American con-
suls and commercial representatives
abroad, of agents of his bureau in this
country, and of the new orders for
American MANUFACTURES and products
reported in commercial periodicals.
If the ratio of increase recorded
since August, when the war began, is
maintained until next August, he esti-
mates that new orders placed on the
books of American firms will total
half billion dollars
As specified data upon which to base
his estimates, Mr. Pratt has the report
of ]. Massel, special commercial agent
now en- route to South America to
study the machine tool market there
and prepare review of the needs of
South American countries, which will
be made available to American manu-
facturers
In preparation for his, trip he visited
virtually every large manufacturing
plant in the United States and esti-
mated that the machine tool manufac-
turing companies alope have from
$10,000,000 to $15,000,000 in new or
ders from European countries now on
their books.
OF course problems of delivery still
have to be met, but the business is of
the most valuable type, since orders
are as rule accompanied by cash.
Details of the November foreign
commerce are not available as yet, be-
yond the estimate that trade balance
in favor of the United States of approx
imately $70,000,000 will be shown.
Department officials are aware, how
ever, that the increase in food ship
ments has continued and that manu-
.factured articles are beginning to
move across the Atlantic in consider
able volume.

special trains Monday morning before
most of the honest Washington

There was, for instance, Arnett Rose,
who grew 1853 (shelled) bushels of corn
on a single acre and won the 1914 corn
championship. Also Paul Hanes, IA,

No Funds for Junkets.

AS part of his annual report State
Auditor A " Donahey will recon-
mend enactment of a law to compel
heads of state departments to obtain
approval of the State Emergency
Board before the expenses incidental
to attendance at conventions can be
charged to the public. OF long stand
ing, he says, is the evil of junkets,
eradication of which he desires. In
some instances the present laws al
low the charging of trips to public
expense, but in other instances the
charges are illegal. Correction of the
statute to fix definitely the public lia-
bility is sought. There is always
somebody in department willing to
sacrifice himself at full pay to visit
another state says the auditor. 'tIf
the same time, energy and thought
were used in making fundamental
analysis of the duties and needs of
their own department, with view to
improving the service, other states
would be sending representatives to
Ohio to study efficiency"

Voters To Be Massed.

A statement issued by publicity
agents of the anti-liberal forces, stated
that in the prohibition canvass in 1915
an effort is to be made to array eoun-
try districts against the cities on the
question of whether Ohio shall have
legalized liquor traffic. An analysis of
election returns, the statement goes
on to say, demonstrates the need of
this policy. The claim is made that
by counties the state is overwhelm-
lngly for prohibition, but the massed
vote in the urban centers holds out
against it. Thus the antiliberal state
ment diagnoses the needs of the prohi,
bitionists. "The temperance forces
must carry on more aggressive cams
paign to unite the vote in the dry
counties as solidly as the wet vote is
united in the wet counties When this
is done victory is certain. The next
task for the temperance worker is to
keep hammering away in the wet coun-
ties until the wet majorities are re4
,duced to a minimum or entirely van
ished.'
