often questioned was never at any time really assailed.
 The desire therefore to criticize the policies which developed among nations navally not so strong is due to the fact that such navally weak CT nations are compelled by the exi- gencies of the situation to establish laws of their own and to endeavor to re-write international law in such manner as it may accomodate it self little more fittingly to their interests.
 In this we see an almost perfect analogy in the evolution of law ill the various nations. We see that the legislation which was of su- preme importance in the feudal age has been that which tended to main tain the feudul lords in their posses sions and the struggle of the bourgeoisie to change those laws has been the struggle of the weaker against the dominant power to have
 such laws as would more material ly be adjusted to their interests:
 With hardly an exception the le- gislative structure of any nation has been the reflex of the economic structure. It was manifestation of the interests of that class whose interests were supreme in the na- tion. Hence reasonably enough be- tween nations, the laws that were credited to exist, always have been such as the strongest nation could with satisfaction observe as best adjusted to it's interests.
 What the world faced when the great European war broke out was number of laws tacitly accepted by the nations as an international code. They were supposed to re- present some sort of theory of ab- stract justice. They were founded upon the interest of the strongest maritime nation when affecting shipping, and in the interest of the strongest landed force when affect ing land operations.
 And thus, inevitably, we see aris ing as the war pcoeeded, different conceptions of this international code from time to time, as one or the other of the belligerents saw fit to think that the code affected them favorably or adversely, and when the international code stood in the way of their interests, they did not hesitate to tear that code into tatters.
 We again note a striking analogy

INTERNATIONAL LAW.

Just at present there are a num- Der of legal high priests in the United States who> are greatly con- corning themselves about interna- national law. The spokesman for this set of legal-doctrinaires is Elihu Root who says that one of the main questions to be disposed of after this war will be whether interna- tional law is to be mere code of etiquette or something much more definite and binding upon the na- tions.
 International law exposes at once the weakness and the lack of hold which law as an abstract concep- tion possesses, and is a somewhat rude proof that justice is little more than the interest of the stronger Oscar Wilde once said through one of his characters in GA Woman of No Importance" that the only law always enforced is the law of the strong over the weak There is a desperate truth in that cynicism, and it is shown quite positively in all the ramifcations of international law. The only rights that are posi- lively and absolutely respected are the rights of the strong, and it is a peculiar thing that in order to force the nations to abide by some inter- national code, it is proposed by the legal archons that the greater na- tions ally themselves to enforce it.
 How international law came into being who shall say? That it is an effort to carry out in practice be- tween nations national law can hardly be doubted and for this req son almost all international law is written in terms of the strongest na- tion whose hand in the writing of such laws was not weak or hesitant.
 Indeed thise is manifest. The in- ternational laws that have dominat- ed the intercourse of the nations on the high seas were such as might be accepted without demur by Great Britain whose naval supremacy
The daily Nome industrial worker., 1916-09-23

in the national affairs. When any ground law, constitution, or statu- tory enactment stands in the way of a great economic interest against a weaker power it is simply torn to tatters. The violation of the con stitutional rights of strikers by the government powers in states which constitute the official force serving force for the corporations is so mo- torious that we need hardly mention examples. But the cases in West Virginia, in Colorado and in Michi- gan are so recent that we may not make any mistake about this.
 So although the wise legal lights whose fetish is the law are con- cerned very greatly about the inter- national obedience to an interna- tional code, we must nevertheless insist that these laws will be valu- able only in so far as they tend to react in favor of the stronger na- tions. When international law stands in the way as of protecting the weaker against the stronger nations they will go by the board. They will not be worth the paper where on they are written. They will be ignored or violated with impunity. The best means of securing the non- violation of international law is to be strong. Then the law will be drawn up in favor the stronger, and it will fall also to the lot of the stronger nation to enforce that drawn up in it's own interest.
 It is because of the wide diver gence at sea between the interest of Germany navaly not so powerful as England navally supreme, we also notice the fact that there is a ten dency upon the part of Germany to pay little attention to an interna- tional code of British ideation and construction. But these views win continue to be irreconcileable just as are their interests.

therefore REQUIRES constitutional

and into the lungs.

THE NEW METHOD
(By L. w. Bower, M. D.

Bachache Of any kind is often
caused by kidney disorder, which
means that the kidneys are not work
ing properly. Poisonous matter and
uric acid accumulate within the body
in great abundance, over-worklng the
sick kidneys, hence the congestion OF
the blood causes backache in the same
manner as similar congestion in the
head causes a headache. You become
nervous, Respondent, sick feverish,
irritable, have spots appearing before
the eyes, bags under the lids, and
lack ambition to do things.
The latest and most effective means
of overcoming this trouble, is to eat
sparingly of meat, drink plenty of wa
ter between meals and take single
Anuric tablet before each meal for a
while
Simply ask your favorite druggist
for Anuric if you aren't feeling up to
the standard. If you have lumbagO,
rheumatism, dropsy, begin immediate
ly this treatment with Anuric. Most
scientists and medical men believe
that because of an over abundance of
uric acid in the system, uractic salts
are deposited in the tissues and cause
rheumatism and govt.
The physicians and specialists at
DR.. Pierce's Institution in Buffalo, N.
Y. have thoroughly tested Anuric and
have been with one accord successful
in Graduating and throwing OFF from
the system the uric acid which accum-
ulates and poisons.
Patients having once used Anuric
at the institution have repeatedly sent
back for more. Such a demand has
been created that Doctor Pierce de-
cided to put Anuric in the Drug stores
of this country, in a ready-to-use form.
1t will be their own fault if those suf-
fering from uric acid troubles do not
take advantage of this wonderful re-
medy.-Adv.

4 FIimsy Story.

CHIHUAHUA, Mex, Aug 26 TT A Japanese physician by the name of Noiko claims to have brought about, the death of Villa by slow poison giv- en under the guise of medical treat meut, according to the Chihuahua To- gal papers. After Villas death, Dr. Nodko is quoted as saying that the remaining Villa leaders gambled with dice to decide who should imperson- ate the dead chief, and the lot fell to Co-onel Baea, who bears a strong per soual resemblance to Villa. To pre-
 ent the deception from being dis closed, Colonel Baca is said to be sur rognded by his personal bodyguard, which kee9s the common soldiers and ranchers from coming too near, Dr. Nclko, according to the papers, had been administering poison for three months wi.h the result that Villa died shortly after his defeat at Parral.
