HYPHENATES CONDEMNED

We, therefore. condemn as subver sive of this nations unity and integ- rity and as destructive of it's welfare the activities and designs of every group or organization, political or oth- erwise, that has for it's object tue advancement of the interest of for eign power, whether such object is pro- noted by intimidating the government, 8 political party or representatives of the people. or which is calculated and tends to divide our people into antag- onistic groups, and thus to destroy tkat complete agreement and solidarity of the people and that unity of sentim ent and national purpose so essential 10 the perpetuity of the nation and its free institutions.
 We condemn all alliances and eombi- nations of individuals in this country of whatever nationality or descent who agree and conspire together for the pur- bose of embarrassing or weakening our government, or of improperly influencing or coercing our public representatives in dealing or negotiating with any foreign power. We charge that such conspiracies among a limited number exist and have been instigated for the purpose of ad- vancing the interests of foreign countries to the prejudice and detriment of our own country. We condemn any political party which in view of the activity of such con- spirators surrenders it's integrity or mod flies it's policy

MONTEREY IS NORMAL

NUN l ERE1 IS NOhMAL
 A message today from Monterey, where the first anti-American demonstration oc- cured. said normal conditions prevailed and the excitement had wholly subsided. The same condition prevails, apparently, throughout the disaffected area.
 A consular dispatch direct from Duran go Mexico, received today, said there was no truth in the report circulated and generally credited few days ago, that burned during an anti-American demon stration. The consul said the consulate had not been attacked.
 Officials now believe that the anti-Amer- ican agitation was started because it was thought the American reply, refusing to withdraw the troops, would be deliv. cred 10 days or more ago. According to this view, the agitators sought to make 1t difficult for the Carranza government to avoid complications with the United States certain to result in the downfall of the de facto regime.
 Administration officials still feel great anxiety as to what the result may be when the note is delivered. For this req son they are taking proper precautionary measures, including preparations for sending refugee ships to both Mexican coasts and for mobilization of a part or all of the National Guard. Orders sent to the inspectors general of the various militia districts sometime ago instructed them to see that all was in readiness for the prompt mastering in of the state sol diers should the need arise No new in. structions have been sent

The matter has beeen dis cussed for sometime and the matter of purchasing the Realty building on Third avenue and Nineteenth street in- stead of building new structure is now being discussed. The county court is now held in this building and is under contract to occupy the building for several years yet.

SPECIAL, NOTE.--Dr. f. Sauer, a well
known physician who has studied widely IN
both this country and Europe, mas peeh
specially employ ed to make tnorSugn m
vestigaton into the real secret OF the great
strength power and endurance or Jess VII
lard, and the marvellous value OF nuXated
iron as strength builder. -..,-l..
NEW YORK.-Upon being inter-
viewed at his apartment in the Co
loniaI hotel, Mr.. willard said. Yes,
I have a chemist with me to study
the value of different foods and prod
ucts as to their power to produce
great strength and endurance, both
of which are so necessary in the
prize ring. On his recommendation l
have often taken nuxated iron and !
have particularly advocated the free
use of iron by all those who wish TO
obtain great physical and mentaI
mower. without it 1 am sure that l
should never have been able to whip
Jack Johnson so completely ana
easily as 1 did and while training for
my fight with Frank Moran, l regu-
larIy took nuxated iron, and am GER
tain that il was a most important
factor in my winning the nght so
easily" Continuing, DR.. Sauer said:
Mr.. Wizards case is only one or
hundreds which l could cite from
nv own personal experience which
proves conclusively the astonishing
power of nuxated iron to restore
strength and vitality even in most
complicated chronic conditions"
Not long ago a man came to me
who was nearly half a century old,
and asked me to give him pre-
liminary examination for life insur-
ance. 1 was astonished to find him
with the blood pressure of boy OF
20 and as full of vigor, vim and VI
tality as a young man-in fact, a
young man he really was, notwith-
standing his age. The secret he said
was taking iron-nuXated iron mad
filled him with renewed life. At 30
he was in bad health: at 46 careworn
and nearly all in. Now at so mir
acle of vitality and his face beaming
with the buoyancy of youth. As l
have said a hundred times over iron
is the greatest of all strength build
ers. If people would only throw away
patent medicines and nauSeous con-
coctions and take simple nuxated
iron | am convinced that the lives OF
thousands of persons might be saved
who now die every year from pneu-
monia, grippe, consumption, kidney,
liver and heart trouble, etc. The real
and true cause which started their
diseases was nothing more or less
than a weakened condition brought
on by lack of iron in the blood Iron

your blood to change food into living
tissue. Without it. no matter how
