polls and record solid vote for Hiram
w. Johnson for senator
Governor Johnson's supporters will
make the strongest sort of fight at
the primary election. But the bat
tie will not end there. He will submit
his name finally to all the voters of
the state. For the final election, his
pporters-augmente by the 100000
non-stated voters who will be eligible
to vote in the November election
will sweep forward to victory with a
majority that will paralyze the reac-
ticnary, corporation-controlled ele-
ments that are trying to regain con-
troll of California government.

BEST CITIZENS ARE
DISFRANCHISED

According to the latest information,
nearly 100000 of California's best cit
izenship will be unable to vote at the
primary election, August %, because
they did not state their party affilia-
tion.
These 100000 constitute the most
independent and patriotic of our clti-
zenship. Governor Johnson's oppon-
ents themselves declare that of this
great body Of non-stated voters prac-
t!cally all are supporters of the gov
elnor.
! The disfranchisement at the ap-
proaching primary of these active sup
porters Of Governor Johnson is view
ca with great satisfaction by the re-
dictionary elements. They declare that
with 100000 disfranchised voters out
of a total of less than million regis
tration, the governor will be over
whelmed at the primary election.
/ The glee of the governors opponents
is apt to be brief, however. Whatever
the result of the primary election, the
fight will go right on with unabated
vigor to the final election in Novem-
Der. At the final election these 30O,-
600 citizens who have been defrauded
of their rights to participate in the
primary election will march to the

INJECTING THE LIQUOR ISSUE

That the liquor issue can scarcely
be kept out OF the coming campaign
in Michigan can be seen from the fol-
lowing Washington despatch to Mich
igan papers
That the Michigan gubernatorial
contest is making itself felt in Wash
ington became evident recently when
Johnnie Baird Of Saginaw, erst-
while boss OF tile G. o. l.. camp in
eastern Michigan. came hurrying TO
Washington II now transpircs that
his visit was inspired by the formal
announcement Of Lieutenant Cover
nor Iuren u. Dickinson that lie would
enter the race for governor
II Is apparent that Dickinson's an
nouncement threw certain faction OF
the vets into a panic, coming as II did,
after they had supposed he had de-
cided 10 keep out OF the running.
A most astonishing story is told in
Washington. since the visit Of Baird
to the capital OF the length to which
the Michigan vets have gone, in their
efforts to clear the field for the safe
and sane wet candidate. who is AL
fred r. Sleeper OF Bad Axe. the vets
being lined up almost solidly behind
his candidacy II is stated on excel
lent authority. that Baird came TO
Washington with very definite pur-
pose. which concerned Sleeper's can
didacy
Now Il IL well known IN Michigan.
OF course, that one or the stumbling
blocks 10 the Sleeper candidacy is
former Congressman William s. Lin
ton OF Saginaw The vets do not
fear that Linton can win the nomina-
ton. but they have strong bunch
thar he can walk away with az least
20. 900 eastern Michigan votes. which
would put an awful crimp in sleep
ers chances OF nosing ahead OF Dick
inson. the dry candidate.
What Baird wanted when he came
10 Washington was 20 get Represen-
tative Joe Fordney 10 lndorse Sleeper
and 10 urge Saginaw and vicinity TO
support the Bad Axe man. II is stat
ed. however. that Fordney, knowing
well the situation In his home state,
politely refused 10 interest himself.

TAKE SALTS TO
FLUSH KIDNEYS
Eat Less Meat if You Feel Baehaky or
Bladder Troubles YOu-SaltS is
Fine for Kidneys.

Meat forms uric acid which excites
and oyerworks the kidneys in their eff
forts to filter it from the system. Reg
ular eaters of meat must flush the
kidneys occasionally. You must re-
lieve them like you relieve your bow
els; removing all the acids, waste
and poison, else you feel a dull misery
in the kidney region, sharp pains in
Tie back or sick headache, dizziness,
your stomach, sours tongue is coated,
and when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy full of sediment; the channels
often get irritated, obliging you to get
up two or three times during the
night.
To neutralize these irritating acids
and flush off the bodys urinous waste
get about four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy; take a table
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine and bladder
disorders disappear. This famous salts
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon Juice, combined with lithia, and
has been used for generations to clean
and stimulate sluggish kidneys and
stop bladder irritation. Jad Salts is
inexpensive, harmless and makes de-
lightful effervescent lithia-water drink
which millions of men and women take
now and then, thus avoiding serious
kidney and bladder diseases.
