Here Are Both Sides
of National { Campaign
BY VANCE MCCORMICK
Chairman Democratic National Com
nltte0

The Republicans are conducting the
most expensive Presidential campaign
In the history Of the United States
The current report Is that they have
More funds at their disposal, through
their National Committee and affili
ated organizations, than ever before
They are spending money with freer
hand than did Mark Hanna in 1896.
and they are better fixed, 1t is stated
Whence comes the abundance of
money and why?
AS to the first half of the above
query, whence comes the money!"
venture the assertion that the offic.
ers and agents of great financial in
terests that fought the great construct
i've measures enacted under the Will
son administration have contributed
generously to the Republican cam
paign fund in one way or another.
Recent news reflected interesting
circumstances that probably relate to
the second half of the query. l refer
to the press reports of the first days
session of the American Bankers
Association that appeared in Eastern
newspapers.
James K. Lynch, of San Francisco,
president of the Bankers Association,
in his address, praised the Federal Re-
serve act unreservedly, and urged the
bankers to work with 1t instead of
against it.

BY WILLIAM r. WILCOX
Chairman Republican National Com

The Democratic campaign managers
are very fond Of declaiming about the
prosperity which President Wilson has
brought to the country. Upon their
banners they couple the name OF Will
son with prosperity, with the obvious
intention Of implying thereby that VIII
son has caused the prosperity.
It requires very brief and casual
examination Of the statistics of our
exports, however, to show conclusive
~ that the European war and not
Woodrow Wilson has been the chief
cause of the extraordinary prosperity
enjoyed in spots by certain specially
favored sections of the country dur
ing the last year. Take, for instance,
the single item Of horses. There were
exported from the United States in
the fiscal year ending June 80, 1916,
horses valued. in the aggregate, at
$73,531 900. The largest exports of
horses up to that time had been in
1912, when the exports reached only
s4,764 ,000-about one-fifteenth as much
as in the last fiscal year.
The expectations of breadstuffs
leaped up from $165, 100000 in the f1s-
cal year Of 1914 to $573. 100000 in our
fiscal year Of 1915, which was in eff
feet the first year Of the war. 1t is.
however, in the items that enter par
ticularly into military supplies that
the exceptional development has been
made.

|. & N. FILES NEW
 FURNACE TARIFFS
Following Decision by Su. preme Court Commission
 Must Allow Increase

Montgomery, August 3.-(SpeciaL) )-Fol- lowing it's victory in the supreme court, the Louisville and Nashville railroad Thursday filed with the Alabama public service commission new tariffs carrying increase in the preferential rates on raw materials given to furnaces in the Bir- mingham district.
 The public service commission has no alternative but to approve the tariffs.
 IL they are not approved the railroad on lo days notice may discontiue the preferential rates entirely and establish the open rate, thus causing the furnaces a heavy loss. The new tariffs carry an average increase of 5 cents a hundred pounds. It is probable similar tariffs Will be filed during the next few days by the Southern and other railroads which were interested in the fight in the supreme court. The Louisville and Nash Vile railroad announced that it's new tariffs would be effective August 15.

 Tn Tuscaloosa until recently we have thought more of the animals than we have of the human beings. We spent thousands of dollars in constructing dip- ping vats for the eradication of the cat tie tick before we spent one penny for the conservation of the health of human ity.
 "The best advertisement of a city is not thickly populated cemetery ceme- tery that is populated because of the failure of those in the city to prevent disease. The first consideration that any investment should give to a city is it's health condition.
 If these diseases can be prevented. it seems to me that the laity should arise in their might and prevent them. I am told that tuberculosis is completely eliminated in Tuscaloosa county so far as new cases are concerned. Common decency should eliminate typhoid. for we are told that it can be contracted only by the taking into the mouth some or the execretions from the bodies of typhoid patients.
 'T believe, too. we ought to begin now campaign to clean up the entire state. Give us in Alabama an all time health officer who will make Alabaam clean! We ask every man, woman and child in the state to rally under the health ban ner of the state and bring up their sons and daughters in state that is as health full as can be found anywhere in the uni verse" M Broadly were others who made short addresses, expressing their thorough sym pathy with the movement to clean up Birmingham.

Cause of Rheumatism

In the June American Magazine Is an article on rheumatism by Dr. Arthur R Reynolds, who says:
 "The cause of rheumatism is pus formed and imprisoned in some part of the body It gets into the circulation and Is carried by 1t to the region affected. These pus places may be in spots more or less closed up, so they are not easily drained. They may be located about the teeth, at the end of the root of dead or diseased teeth in the crypts of the tonsils in some oi the seQuestered places in the nostrils, in the bony sinuses of the head; they may be in the bladder. the kidney, the gal ducts or other places. The pus-producins spot may be as small or smaller than a pea or 1t may be larger. It's existence is frequently unknown to the patient. espe- c!ally if it be hidden in soft tissue like bony socket of a tooth without giving pain.
 Several different organisms produce pus. and any or all may produce rheuma- tism when transferred to the joints or the heart
 ''The physician today seeks for the pus cavity when he meets a patient with rheumatism and he endeavors to clean 1t up. Rheumatic pains have been stopped with magical promptness by simply ex- tracting the offending tooth. It is not always easy to find the pus places in the hidden parts of the body. The x-ray shadowgraph IS essential in locating the trouble; it shows definitely and accu- rately all trouble about the roots of the teeth and it's use Is therefore of the first importance in ferreting out the pus in the deep structures"

ANSWER EXPECTED SOON

Washington. August 3.-The final word from General Carranza necessary to initiate organization for a joint commits sion for settlement of border disputes is expected to reach Washington in a day or two, and officials believe the commits sions deliberation may begin in a week or 10 days.
 Official announcement in Mexico City today that Mexican commissioners al- ready had been selected was taken as a sign that the American suggestion for broadening the scope of subjects to be considered at the conference probably had been accepted. Neither the Mexican embassy nor the state department, how ever, had been officially advised tonight regarding selection of the commissioners or General Carranza's decision as to the matters they will discuss.
 While no formal comment was made at the department in advance of official notification, there was nothing to indi- cate that the three commissioners named would not be entirely acceptable to de- partment officials. President Wilson has a score of men under consideration for appointment as American representatives. but it is understood he has not attempted so far to make a choice.
 There are many indications that a high army officer will be one of those selected by the President because of the mli- tary nature of the problems to be con- sidered. Major General Goethals has been mentioned. The other men under consideration include members of the su- preme court and men in close touch with commercial and financial conditions.
 Department officials have refused to discuss what matters in addition to the military situation on the border they desire the commission to treat. It is known, however, that the possibility of arranging financial aid for the de facto government has been talked over.
 The commissions power will be only that of recommendation. Whatever plan it may propose. either for settling the border situation, for withdrawal of American troops from Mexico. or for any other purpose must be ratified be- fore it is any way binding upon either government.
