RICE FOR SUPREME JUDGE

The editor of The Gem Worker
has been acquainted personally and
by reputation with John c. Rice, of
Caldwell, for the dozen or more years
which we have been resident of
this State and we desire to go on rec
ord with the statement that no man
stands higher among his fellows as
a lawyer or as a man OF strict in
egrity and high ideals. lie is demo-
cratic in the broadest sense of the
term and can be depended upon at
all times as an earnest promoter of
he common good. There is nothing OF
the aristocrat about John c. Rice. He
is man among men, thoroughly inn
bued with the desire to see justice
done between man and man and no
corporate influence could ever swerve
nim from the path of duty. Judge
Rice is a candidate for the non-parti-
san nomination for Justice of the Su-
preme Court--a position for which
he is eminently fitted. Every voter
has a right to express his or her
choice for the nomination for Justice,
and the names of the candidates will
be found in separate column on the
official ballot. Do not overlook it.
but place a cross after the name OF
John C. Rice and feel confident you
have rendered a service to the State
in so doing.

islaton has appealed to him. Organ
lied labor should rally to his sup
port, not merely in appreciation of
his past services, but for the greater
reason that his future course can abb
solutely be counted on. He is as
well-grounded in his friendship for la
Dor as any OF the chosen leaders of
our organization and will be able to
accomplish more and more for us as
his term in Congress is extended. Let
ut not be understood that McCrack-
en- is solely the friend of organized
labor-he is the consistent advocate
.of all legislation that is beneficial to
the people at large as distinct from
special interests.
The women Of Idaho have no more
faithful champion in their demands
for legislation in harmony with the
widening eXpanse of woman's sphere
in the world than Robert McCracken
And in this, as in his stand for la
Dor legislation, McCracken is acting
from sincere and earnest conviction.
Every working woman should cast
ker ballot for McCracken. i,
There is an effort being made by
The old-lne and old-time politicians
to make it appear that McCracken is
"a weak candidate This was their
song, two years ago, and they were
genuinely surprised when he landed
the nomination AS openly as they
could and in connivance with the op-
position this class sought his defeat
in the general election, but despite
this treachery McCracken was an
easy victor. And as his acquaintance
has broadened; as the people of the
entire State have come toknow him
through his record in Congress he has
grown in strength and The Gem
Worker desires to predict that Mr..
McCracken will be renominated and
reelected by larger majority than
eceived two years ago.

TO help McCRACKEN
Workers Are RalIyng to the Support Of
Congressman for Reelection

Robert NJ. McCracken is of the old
school OF American public men-a
man who has worked his way up
from the ranks as a faithful public
servant and who enjoys the conf
dence and respect of the people. In
the olden time the youth was taught
that the way to successful achieve
ment was through privation, self-de-
NAL, perseverance and study and Rob-
ert McCracken has travelled that
road. And they were further taught
that success was not measured in dol
lars and cents or in the amount OF
wealth which an individual might ac-
cumulate, but that it was measured
~ the degree of faithful service a
nan could give to his fellows. And
II that line has Robert McCracken
made his endeavor.
Working his way upward, McCrack-
en- has bound his friends to him with
links of steel AS a member of the
N't"NN III d SluRlC IGIlIl
he was the greatest personal force
for effective reforms the State of Ida
ho had greeted in a generation. The
direct primary law itself is a monu-
ment to his abiding faith in the peo-
pie. He did not hesitate to stand for
he right-even when it was necessary
to step beyond party lines to do so.
No party collar ever kept him from
lis faith to the people As he was
the Legislature, so is he in Con-
rress. In all the constructive legis-
alton introduced into Congress in
he past two years, McCracken has
.lways seen his duty. clear-eyed and
iar-visioned, and has performed that
duty with singular fdelitey.
McCracken has labored for every
measure that has the endorsement of
union labor-and he has done this
not from an effort to make himself
solid" with organized labor, but be-
cause the inherent injustice of the leg

DEFEAT FOR STEEL CoRPo.
RATION

Washington, Aug. 31-George An
dreytchine, for two years an employee
of the Steel Corporation on the Mes
aba iron range of Minnesota, will not
be deported to Bulgaria because he
joined the strike now in progress and
addressed meetings OF the miners.
John c. Densmore, acting Secretary
of Labor and first lieutenant of Sec
retary Wilson in administering the af-
fairs of the department, has ruled that
Andreytchine is not a dangerous or
undesirable alien under the meaning
of the law, and today Andreytchine
is absolutely free.
Andreytchine' release marks the
final defent of the Steel Corporation
and their agents in and out of office
in their attempt to destroy Andreyt-
chine because he used his exceptional
ability as a speaker and linguist on
the side of his fellow workers. and
against the tyranny maintained by the
Steel Corpoation with the aid of gun
men and subservient officials.
Acting Secretary Densmore's decis-
ion is a decision against the Steel
Corporation on a clean-cut issue be-
tween that corporation and justice
Among the many who were active
III Andreytchine's behalf were Isaac
Mcbride, Senator Harry Lane of Or
egon, Frank ]. Hayes, vice president
of the United Mine Workers, and An
drew Ferruseth.

MRS. BESSIE YOUNG GAINS b POUNDS
 ON THREE BOTTLES
Suffered Thirteen Years; Says Tanlac Has Entire
 ly Overcome Troubles

T have gained 15 pounds since taking Ianlac and I now simply feel fne,' said Mrs. Bessie Young, residing at 1900 Third avenue, north, in her statement to the Tanlac representative a few days ago.
 T suffered with stomach trouble in it's worst form for 12 or IS years" continued Mrs. Young. T was unable to eat any solid food at all on account of the weak condition of my stomach. Even the lightest of things disagreed with me and after eating would feel. like big lump had lodged in my chest and nothing could do would remove it. I would have awful attacks of acute indigestion and it seemed like I could not live through one Of these spells Gas would gather about my heart and 1 would have smothering spells and could hardly breathe Then my nerves would give way, my muscles would draw up and I would have general col- lapse. I was so nervous I couldn't bear the least unusual noise and couldn't get any rest or sound sleep at all. I was so weak from loss of flesh and strength the least exertion would almost completely exhaust me and when I wasn't down in bed l was too weak to properly see after my household duties. I had tried so long and used so many different medicines without getting any real benefit I had about despaired of getting anything that would help me-
 Tt certainly was lucky day for me when I bought Tanlac. began feeling better right from the start and since talk ing three bottles of the medicine haven't a symptom of my troubles. I can eat most anything I want now and all I eat agrees with me- Those awful attacks of acute indigestion have stopped and I have no more smothering spells or short ness of breath. I'm not nervous now and I can stand any kind of noise and my sleep and rest at night is fine. Yes, sir, I have gained 15 pounds in weight and what I have gained in health and strength can't be measured. My niece, who was visiting me, was all run down and very nervous. I got her to taking Tanlac and, do you know. when she went away after taking two bottles she said she felt great deal better in every way and she looked like different per- son. Tanlac has relieved me of my many years of suffering and I feel it my duty to let others know about it.
 Tanlac is sold in Birmingham exclu- sively by Eugene Jacobs Drug store and Patton-Pope Drug Co.,, in Ensley by D. w. Morris Drug Co.,, in Bessemer by Pegran-Patton Drug Co.,, in Pratt City by Gale Drug Co.,, and in North Birming- ham by Walker Drug Co.-Adv.

FARMERS LEARNING AT SUMMER SCHOOL
Practical Subjects Being Discussed at Aubun by
 Well Known Experts

Auburn, August -(special.)-The sec ond day of the farmers summer school began at 8 o'clock Monday morning with lecture on the sanitary requirements of a hog farm. The lecturer pointed out the necessity of keeping hogs separated from all other animals, having plenty of woven wire fence and isolated far rowing pens, movable houses and good water supply. The location of these pens should be on relatively high well drained land, free from mud holes and wallows. of the A or shed type so that they can be readily disinfected and moved.
 The next lecture was by Professor Price on the Production of Irish Potatoes in Alabama Professor Price gave the best soils adopted to Irish potatoes the best fertilizers to use, how to plant and culti- vate, how to market and how to save the potatoes and keep them from rotting. Following this lecture was given on care of live stock, such as mules and horses, during the working season. Di- rections were given for fitting harness and gear and taking care of the same, keeping the stock healthy and in shape for doing the greatest amount of work, and special stress was given to the quail ity and quantity of feed, regularity of feeding and watering to avoid disease and injury of the work stock.
 Following this lecture was given on the rotation of crops on small farms with the object in view of soil improve ment and production of some cotton for money crops and large amount of feed for animals. Prof. George Tempeton gave lecture on the types and breeds of sheep and then the farmers went to the stock pens where the contest judging of sheep for the prizes offered took place.
 In the morning Mrs. H. w. Calvin gave a lecture and demonstration in cooking, telling about how to COOK cer- tain foods to get the most nutrition and to make them the most wholesome and healthful. She gave another lecture in the evening and all the ladies in attend ance were very much pleased with the work These lectures are attracting the attention of the ladies in attendance.
 At night Prof. A. P. Bourland gave his famous lecture on How Germany Can Fight the World.' In this lecture he shows how the systematic cooperation in Germany enables them to be self sufficient as a fighting machine and a self-supporting nation.
 Farmers are coming in on every train and tomorrow much larger attendance is expected. All the work will begin promptly at o'clock in the morning, and there will be lectures every hour until 10 o'clock at night A large num- Der of the counties are already repre- scented, and it is anticipated that nearly all the counties in the state will be rep resented before the school closes.
