THE PRESIDENT DISCOVERS"

is President Wilson laboring under
the impression that the people of this
country and their whole welfare is
something committed wholly to his
personal keeping; that they are not
justified (indeed are really censur-
able) in attempting to protect them
selves and their vital interests against
his administrative program? That is
what his latest screed would seem to
indicate. Why, in the name of COM
mon sense and free speech, should the
President set up a howl of protest
because the business interests" have
tried to organize a countrywide I'm
fiuence on Congress" to drop the Ad-
ministration's legislative program and
adjourn without further disturbance
of business conditions.
These business interests believe,
whether rightly or wrongly, that the
Administrations legislative program
is responsible for the present unset
tied and unhappy business conditions,
and so believing they certainly have
perfect right to make their views
known to Congressmen-and indeed
do all they can legitimately to Gin
fluence" those Congressman against
any further continuance or such leg
islative program. For Mr.. Wilson to
resent such course on the part of the
business intel ests is for him to as
sumo an autocratic, dictatorial atti-
tude which is not tolerable in repre-
sentative commonwealth. Has Mr..
Wilson come to so highly regard his
AVAILABILITY in governmental matters
as that he must characterize it a
crime for business people TO struggle
for relief from his visionary and de-
structive program? The "solid bust
ness interests" the half-tinle mills,
the silent factories, the jobless work.
ers. the iobbers who cannot sell, the
railroads which cannot buy--must all
these voices be silent as the tomb?
Dare they speak no word, write no
letter, of protest to their representa-
tives in Congress? Must they eat
their hearts out in idleness and dis
enlargement without a sign of OBJ
lection, lest they seem to oppose the
CARRYING out of Mr.. Wilson's acad-
emic theories? Pshaw, what ails the
man? What country does he think
he is living in? How far does he
imagine he can get with such efforts
to balk the people in their cherished
right to petition or otherwise influence
their legislators? Mr.. Wilson must re-
member that he is not now at the
head of boys school. He is at the
head of a great nation, that will not
have it's prosperity and well being eX-
perimented away without mighty
protest. What Mr.. Wilson has so far
"discovered" is not circumstance to

JUST MAKING JOBS.

SENATOR Orlando Harrison, act
ing simply as the agent Of the John
Walter Smith management, introduce
ed, and the last Legislature passed. a
Bill, removing from the State Road
Commission its only unpaid members
DR.. Ira Remsen and DR.. Bullock
Clark - and substituting therefor
two paid commissioners at an annual
salary of $500 each. Not that prs.
Remsen and Clark were at all in
competent and not that there was any
need for two additional paid Commits
sioners. But, you see, the thing af-
forded a chance to create two new
lucrative offices for the use of the
political powers, and those political
powers are missing no chance to
create Offices. Indeed, one can only
think with disgust and irritation at
the great multiplication of public Off
cials, at the taxpayers expense,
which this State has had foisted upon
it in recent years by it's political
bosses. The last Legislature was an
awful sinner in this respect. 1t stag
gers one to think of the vast number
of new "jobs" which it created-jobs
which, you will note, are being filled
by political henchmen, almost without
exception. 1t is the political machines
method Of rewarding and supporting
itself out of the peoples pockets, and
it is going to keep it up until the peo-
pie rise up in their might and retire
from political control the gentlemen
who make business of political man
agement.

COUGH TWO YEARS OLD
Yields to Vinol. Read Why.

Strong vigorous men and women
hardly ever catch cold; it's only when
the system is run down and vitality
low that colds and coughs get foot
hold.
Now isn't it reasonable that the
right way to cure a cough is to build
up your run down condition again?
Mrs. D. A. MCGEE of Waycross, Ca.
says: II had a chronic cold and cough
which kept me awake nights for two
years and I felt tired all the time.
Vinol cured my cough and I feel
stronger in every way"
The reason Vinol Is SO efficacious
In such cases is because it contains

ing iron added.
Chronic coughs and colds yield to
Vinol because it builds up the weak,
ened, rundown system.
You can get your money back any
time If Vinol does not do all we say.
