THE DIVISION OF GLORY AMONG
THE COMMISSIONERS.

The chief credit for the making OF this
treaty must be given to Gallatin, though all
his colleagues must share in it, Even the
sometimes acrimonious differences between
Adams and Clay on the whole contributed to
rather than INSTRUCTED the attainment of the
end Gallatin described the treaty to Monroe
as being "as favorable as could be expected un-
der existing circumstances, so far as they were
known to U.S." and that estimate of it
probably just Before the news of the signing
of it could reach America the battle OF New
Orleans was fought and the British suffered
their one really singing land defeat of the
whole war; The news did not, in fact, become
known here until near the middle of February
1915. when it was received with mingled emo
tons OF satisfaction and regret. There was
occasion for the administration party to feel
Inundated, because Of the failure of the high
and resoundng boasts with which they had be-
gun the war, yet Madison reported TO Con-
gress that the treaty ended with peculiar
felicity a campaign signazed by the most
brilliant successes" The treaty was submitted
to the Senate on February Is. and was ratified
two days later. Instantly there a crafty
ing response in business and finance. Stocks

In this the Americans had pretty free hand
Their original instructions were to make COM
plete abandonment Of the impressment of sea-
men a sine qua non, but later Monroe told
them that that, while desirable, was not indis-
pensable Then grave differences arose among
themselves. Adams and Russell, New Eng
landers wanted to insist upon North Atlantic
fishery rights. and cared little about the Mis-
sssippi River, while Clay and Bayard wanted

Happily, however the British government
made known TO ours its willingness TO enter
into direct negotiations, considering contro-
versy between these two countries to be
family matter of Anglo Saxondom, into which
no outsider should be called. The offer was at
once accepted, and Adams Gallatin and Bay
ard, reinforced by Henry Clay and Jonathan
Russell were directed to proceed to London,
there to conduct the peace negotiations. Gal
latin and Bayard were the first to arrive, and
they got there at an inopportune moment 1t
was in April 1914. Napoleon had abdicated
the throne OF France. Great Britain was tri-
umphant and exultant with army and navy
free to be transferred to America for the prose
cution OF the war. 1t was purposed TO recon-
quer and annex New England, where will

The French policy was that OF arbitrary con-
hscation. An American merchant ship, for ex-
ample, which was caught by British pri-
vateer, taken into a British port against its
will and then released was for that reason
seized and wholly conhseated by the French.
Some were seized and eonhscated simply be-
cause they had been spoken at sea by British
ships, and that before the French decree OF
non-intercourse had been issued However,
the British sea power was UNNECESSARILY
greater than the French. America suffered far
more from the nilder policy Of England than
from the harsher policy of France, and con-
seouently American wrath at England became
far greater than at France.
This was the dilemma: Our ships must COM
ply with certain conditions or they would be
seized by British cruisers, but if they did COM
pIy with them, they would be seized by the
French In the immortal words of Lorenzo
Dow:
you'll be damned il you do; you'll be
damned II you don't" At the urging o. Jeher-
son, we tried non-intercourse and embargo Tor
bidding our ships TO leave our ports, but soon
got tired of such commercial suicide. Then
diplomacy was resorted 10, under serious dis
advantages.

PROHIBITION LAW TO Be RE-
.PEALED IN FAR OFF NORWAY
(By Associated Press.)

CHRISTIANA, Oct. 2S.-The Nor
wegian press is making an almost I'M
animous appeal to the Government to
rescind the prohibition ordinance
which was passed in the first excite
ment of the war to stop the sale of
strong alcoholic beverages. Nominally
fifty per cent of the Norwegian people
is represented in the membership of
"Teetotal Societies." and next to Fin
land, Norway ordinarily has the small

in the world. 1t is the working classes

The new huts are not warm struc-

About 100000 men are encamped on

table huts are to be sent to the ex-

bition act is based primarily on asser-
tons that after more than two months
of prohibition, prohibition has not
worked. Persons who could afford it
have INDUCED extensively in the i'm
portation of strong liquors from Den
mark to Scotland. Individuals have
combined to form private stock COM
panies" and have brought in thous-
ands of gallons every week, each per-
son taking key or two for private use
Among the poorer classes complaint is
made that the prohibition law has Gre
ated worse conditions, prompting the
concoction of such weird drinks as
self murder"-the name given to de-
naturalized alcohol favored with oil of
peppermint-and the cheapest kinds of
so-called sweet wines, made from
chemical products, which never saw
grapes.
The police reports in Christiana
show that the average number of ar
rests for drunkness as been about the
same as before the ordinance was pass
ed, and in the meantime the Govern
ment loses a revenue of $260,0O0 a
month. Outside of the Teetotal Societ-
les demand for resembling the new
law has gained such Roadway that it is
said the Government may meet it.
The Government has already re-
scind the special law forbidding distil-
lation of alcohol from potatoes. This
| is ordinarily an extensive industry in
! Norway, but at the outbreak of the
| European war it was thought neces-
sary to stop it in order to conserve the

SALTS fine FOR
ACHING KIDNEYS
We Eat Too Much Meat Which Clogs
Kidneys, Then the Back Hurts.

Most folks forget that the kidneys,
like the bowels, get sluggish and
clogged and need a flushing occasion
ally, else we have backache and dull
misery in the kidney region, severe
headaches, rheumatic twinges, torpid
liver, acid stomach, sleeplessness and
all sorts of bladder disorders.
You simply must keep your kidneys
active and clean, and the moment you
feel an ache or pain in the kidney re-
gion, get about four ounces of Jad
Salts from any good drug store here,
take a tablespoonful in a glass of wa
ter before breakfast for few days
and your kidneys will then act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM
bined with lithia and is harmless to
flush c,ogged kidneys and stimulate
them to normal activity. 1t also neu-
tralizes the acids in the urine so it
no longer irritates, thus ending blad-
der disorders.
Jad Salts is harmless; inexpensive;
makes a delightful effervescent lithia-
water drink which everybody should
take now and then to keep their kid
neys clean thus avoiding serious com
plications.
A well-known local druggist says
he sells lots of Jad Salts to folks who
believe in overcoming kidney trouble
