AMERIC AN.HAWAuA LINE ACTIVE.

The year just closed was an evcntful
one for the American Hawaiian Line. In
April it had to withdraw from the
Tehuantapec route prematurely, owing
to the American occupation of Vera
Cruz, and resume its old route
by way of the Strait of Magel-
Ian. In August this was again abandon
ed upon the opening of the Panama
Canal. Since the opening of that water
way it has been used continuously by the
many steamships of that lire. The car
goes have been satisfactory, but the
quietness of business in the East has, of
course, been felt. Since December,
however, the westbound movement has
been improved, as money has been
easier. All of the American Hawaiian
lines are fitted with refrigerating equip
ment by the Brunswick Refrigerating
Company of New Brunswick, N. j., so
as to permit of their carrying California
fruit. Two of the feet are at present
chartered to the South American trade,
two are carrying cotton to Europe, and
two are carrying horses across the Allan

BILE AND B|LIOUSNESS

Coated tongue, bitter taste in the
mouth, indigestion, headache, lack of
appetite, constipation and feeling of
fatigue are effects of excessive secretion
of bile.
This condition is called biliousness and
points directly to the need of something
to regulate the liver. For this purpose
Pinklets, the new laxative, are greatly
superior to oldfashioned liver medicines
which over-stimulate the liver and, when
their use is stopped, leave it more torpid
than before. Pinklets are tiny, sugar.
coated granules that do not upset tho
stomach or cause gripping.
Write the DR.. Williams Medicine Co. +,
Schenectady, N. Y, for free sample or

SENATOR BORAH'S SPEECH.

Senate Republicans chose wisely in
designating Senator Borah to take up
on their behalf the challenge of Presi-
dent Wilson's remarkable jackson Dav
speech. The effective way in which
the Idaho senator fiayed the phrases and
the policies of our phrase making Presi-
dent reveals campaigner fully able to
handle Wilson rhetoric and recalls to
many minds the prophecy of Colonel
George Harvey, made more than a year
ago, that the next President of the
United States would be William E.
Borah. 1t is not surprising that the
Washington correspondents agree in
calling The speech "the most impressive
criticism of the Administration vet heard
in Congress"
But In his discussion of Mexico Sena-
tor Borah rises above the plane of parti-
sanship and speaks the language Of true
Americanism. Hear him:
l am DESTROYS of peace with Mex.
leo; want no war; and | know we
shall never take any part of the terri
tory of that republic, but above and
beyond that and more important to
my mind is the fact that we should
at least protect our own citizenship,
securing our women against ravish-
ment and murder at the hands of
those ferocious men who prey upon
our nationals wherever they find
them in their territory. There are
some things which are dearer to me
than peace
Mr.. President, the mistreatment
of American citizens in Mexico is due
to the fact that there has passed into
the Mexican mind firm belief that
we will not protect our citizens, and
say whatever criticism shall come
to me from those who love peace
more than they love honor, that the
flag which will not protect it's peo-
pie is dirty rag that contaminates
the air in which it floats" We can
not have peace, we cannot have
honor unless we are prepared to pro-
tect our own citizens, and | believe.

still have no war with Mexico.

British Farmers Prospecting.

After many years Of depression the
British farmer is enjoying prosperity.
Everything he raises is quickly saleable
at prices which are gradually climbing
higher and higher. Wheat and oats,
which are the staple crops of most Eng

while the live stock they fattened
for the holiday market was taken at
figures which have not been reached in
