This is a recent discovery of Doctog

Hospital for several years proved that
there is no other eliminator of uric acid
that can be compared to it. For those

simply wonderful how surely vAnuric"
acts The best of results are always
obtained in cases of acute rheumatism
in the joints, in gravel and govt, and
invariably the pains and stiffness which
so frequently and persistently accom-

Go to your nearest drug store and
simply ask for a 50-cent package of
uAnuric," manufactured by DR.. Pierce,
or even write Doctor Pierce for free

COL, ROOSEVELT BELIEVES
 IN UNIVERSAL M|L|TAR|SM
ADDRESS COLONEL DENOUNCEs POLITICIANS WHO GERMAN-AMERICAN VOTE AND DECLARES THAT UNITED STATES SHOULD HOLD GERMAN GOVERNMENT FOR DYNAMIT. ING MUNITIoN r14ANTs-sAYs AMERICA SHOULD ACTIVELY INTERPRETED GERMAN
 GIUM-RIDICULED ADMINISTRATIONS ARMY.

BROOKLYN, Feb. In an ad- dress delivered yesterday afternoon before the Institute of Art Colonel Roosevelt arraigned the politicians whom he declared were refusing to uphold the country's rights because they feared to offend the German American voters.
 Col. Roosevelt strongly denounced the German warfare and said that na- |tion had been disregarding the ooli- gations of international humanity in it's dealings with Belgium, anc iE the |outrages committed on non-ccintat- Fants of other nations and in Its as- |saults on our own people. He said that 1t was to the deep discre6it of the nation that the United States had not actively and effectively interter- led against the callous brutality shown by Germany ever since the war began.
 He believed that the administration was showing weakness ill it's dealings with Germany and believed that the American government should have held the German government res2on- sible for the destruction of intuition plants in this country. German dip lomats had been sent out of the couE- try for instigating conspiracies which could not have been successful had not the Government lent it's support and approval.
 Col. Roosevelt urged governmental announcement and control of n:uni- tion plants, and said that to make war

NEuTRALs ARE NOT
 ANXIOUS FOR PEACE
Editor of German-American Publica~ ton Says all of Europe Will he
 Drawn Into Conflict.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-Herman Bernstorn, one of the Ford delegates who returned from Europe on the liner Rotterdam yesterday, declares that the efforts of the Ford expedi- tion were foredoomed to failure be- fore the party left New York.
 Bernstorn is editor of 'The Day." a pro-German newspaper, which is published in New York, and in the issue of his paper today declares that the neutral nations of Europe are less anxious for peace than the belliger- ents. His investigations covered Nor way, Sweden, Denmark and Holland. and he says all are enjoying unpre- cedented business prosperity as a re- suit of the war and declined to coop crate with the expedition in any way.
 He predicts that all of Europe. with the possible exception of Spain, will be involved in the war before hostili- ties are ended and says that all of them are preparing for war.

on them is make war on the United States and those doing so should be dealt with accordingly, and all who encouraged the plotters should be dealt with in like manner. He believ- ed the existing intuition plants should be encouraged in every legitima.e way
 and provisions made to enable them to continue in operation after the war in Europe had ended He favored the
 establishment of government muni- |tion factories farther inland and said that the whole matter of providing
 for and regulating the output of nlu- |nitions was one in which America could profit by following the example |of Germany.
 Roosevelt ridiculed the plan for a large Continental army, which. he as- Iserted, would penalize patriotic men by causing them loss of time, busi- ness training or money at the very period of their lives when they could not afford to be handicapped in favor
 of their less patriotic and more sell fish competitors. He believed univer- sal military service was the only sc- lution for providing an adequate force
 to defend the nation if invasion by
 foreign foe threatened.
 He favored military service as 2
 part of high school education and be-
 lieved that the training should seri-
 ously begin at the age of sixteen
 years, and that between the ages Of
 eighteen and twenty-one the men
 should be given six months service
 with the cOlors.

AMERICA READY
 FOR PREPAREDNESS
President wilsYn Believes that o0un h will Support Administra-

MILWAUKEE,, Feb. In his ad- dress here last night President Will son denied the charge which had been made that his preparedness policy had been conce manufacturers of munitions. He apparently realized that a large portion of his audience were of German birth and appealed to them to uphold the administration in it's efforts to prev.--- America be- ing drawn into the conflict.
 President Wilson declared that the agents of all the European powers in- volved. in the life and death struggle were infringing tremendous pressure to bear upon America through the foreign-born citizans to secure her ac- tive support. He also declared that never in the history of the nation has tAmerica faced a greater task than that of avoiding the snares of the European nations which were trying to win her to their side.
 The President declared that he be- Neved that the country would support the administrations national defense policy despite the campaign which was being started against it from certain quarters. ..-. |.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. r. The United States government has ap- proved of plan for the establish ment of chain of radio stations which will bring every republic on the western hemisphere into coE1u- nication with each other. The chain of wireless stations will extend from Alaska to the uttermost reaches of South America and will serve to bring the commercial interests of tho Americas into closer business rsla tions.
 The plan to establish closer bvsi- ness relations between the United States and the Central and South American countries by means of wire less communication is said to have been advanced by the representative of Argentine in the Pan-American conference last summer, and it is un- derstood that each of the nations rep resented in the conference have en- dorsed the plan.

GAMMA RIVER
 DAM BROKEN
Militia Searching for Bodies of Dead from Otay Flood Report that
 Looters Are Active.

SAN DIEGO, Calif., Feb. 1.--Tele- graphic reports from the north are to the effect that the big dam on Ca yama river, a tributary of the Santa Marie, had been broken by the flood and had swept the valley to it's june tion with the Santa Marie. The dis patches do not indicate that there was loss of life but the loss of prop erty will be heavy.
 The situation in this district is de- plorable. Thousands of persons have been driven from their homes, or been rendered destitute by the de- struction of their property. The Otay valley has been devastated for a dis tance of fifty miles and all ranches in the valley have been laid waste by the wall of water which rolled down to the sea when the dam broke.
 State troops, aided by private citi- zens are searching the ruins of the hundreds of homes for the bodies of the victims of the flood and have re- ported that vandals are robbing the dead and footing their property which escaped destruction.
 The rain which fell in torrents for several days has ceased and it is be- .lieved that the worst of the floods have passed. The loss of property in this section of the state will be enor- nous and is variopsly estimated up to ten million dollars.

WILL IMPROVE THE IT! " WIRELESS PLANTS N !
Instruments which will increase eftic-
 ciency of Fairbanks Plant Be sent over trail.

On one of the last steamers from the states the local office of the Sig nal Corps received from the depart ment at Washington a shipment of wireless instruments which will be gent over the winter road to Fair banks. The shipment consists of Cohen receiving set, which, when in- stalled at the Fairbanks station is expected to increase the efficiency of the plant. The Cohen is said to immensely superior to the kind which was installed in the statioRs in AL aska when they were frstebuilt. It is the type of receiver which is now being installed at all the, naval radio stations. e,oe. ....t,,-- --....
 Ever since the wireless station was installed at Fairbanks considerable difficulty has been experienced in handling communications between that point and Cordova. The CordoTa station has been able to receive and send messages to Fairbanks but the instruments in the latter place were evidently not delicate enough or pro- perly attuned.
 There are now nine wireless sta tions in interior Alaska and it is un- derstood that the government plans the installation of two more during the coming summer. The new stations will be located at Fort Yukon and Holy Cross and should the lnstru- ments now being sent to Fairbanks fulfill the expectations of the navy department officials, interior Alaska points will not suffer when the cable CT land lines are out of commission.
 The instruments which weigh one hundred and eighty-five pounds, will be taken over the trail to Fairbanks by driver Rowbottom with the gov ernment dog team.

 1918, San Francisco will be bom- bar led and destroyed by hostile fleet"
 Gunnery Sergeant Thomas G. Ster- rett, United States marine corps, makes this dire prophecy, not from any advance military knowledge, but from the fact that he is the seventh son of seventh son with no girls be- tween, and his comrades think him something of a forecaster. Sterrett first gained fame when, in 1892, he predicted new railway sta tion for Kansas City.

REINDEER HELPED
 ALASKA NATIVES
Says Responsibility for Car ing for the Animals Has Gra1u-
 ally Changed Eskimos.

The reindeer industry which began lin Alaska in 1892 by the introduction |of a few reindeer from Siberia has long been a demonstrated success in many sections according to Governor Strong in his annual report to the Secretary of the Interior.
 His report says the industry has placed the native inhabitants beyond the reach of grim want which always faced them during the long vii ter |seasors. The natives, and especially the Eskimos, who were the first hcne- ficiaries of the introduction of rein deer. were always improvident. This, however, is characteristic of all abo- |riginal peoples. But wherever the reindeer have been introduced in Alaska the industry has had bene- lfcial effect upon the native people. It has taught them to assume respOnsi- |bilities, increased their activities, and raised them materially in the ways of civilized life. There is still need of the extension of the industry. There are thousands of natives in the delta country between the Yukon and Kus- kokwim rivers, and in the Aleutian Islands who can be saved from pos sible extinction by introducing the reindeer among them and teaching them how to care for the animals and In this way their habits |of living will be gradually changed from miserable dugouts or igloos
 which they now inhabit to, more sani- |tary and comfortable dwellings. In the Aleutian group of islands there are probably 1500 Aleuts; in the Yu- kon-Kuskokwim delta there are prob ably 5000 natives of the Boring Sea Eskimo tribes. " f' Ff'' ,''1 ''

SAYS LUS|TAN!A SITUATION GRAVE
Washington Official Circles Fear that 'S' Diplomatic Relations with Ger
 many May Be Severed.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 1 - High officials of the government state that the situation between the Ger
 man and American governments has again become extremely grave as a result of the refusal of the German government to conclude the case of the Lusitania, which was sunk last year by German submarine and caused the loss of hundreds of Amer ican lives.
 It is rumored in diplomatic circles that Secretary Lansing has received a note from the German government stating that in view of the fact that guns are being mounted on the com |merce ships of the enemy nations that Germany cannot now subscribe to the terms agreed upon in the Llsi- tania controversy several months go. Government officials who are fully cognizant of the situation which has developed over the changed attitude |of the German government are said to be apprehensive that diplomatic re- lations may be severed between the two countries. Secretary Lansing has declined to make any comment on the controversy, but has admitted that the situation is grave and that President Wilson may be recalled from his tour of the country to the capital.
