Fairbanks DenOunCeS
Democratic Tariff

Fairfield, Me, Sept. S.-Criticisms OF
Democratic free trade policies and OF
what he termed the colossal extrava-
gance Of the present Administration"
were made by Charles W. Fairbanks,
Republican nominee for Vice-President,
in an address here tonight.
"The Democratic free trade law" he
said, was. in effect, suspended in its
hurtful operation by the coming OF the
European war. The war made unex-
pected demands on our factories for
military supplies and for the products
of our farmers. 1t increased the for
eign trade balance Of the United States
TO the largest figures in our history.
at must be manifest 10 every OBJ
server of current events, 10 every one
who has some little knowledge of the
history Of his country, that such pros
perity as we have will end as soon as
the European war closes. When peace
comes there will be a quick and de
cisIve interruption TO the currents Of
our trade with Europe.
ALREADY, II we are correctly in
formed. some Of our commercial and
industrial competitors in Europe have
immense quantities of commodities
manufactured and stored awaiting
transportation TO the United States
when the seas are cleared.
"Our Democratic friends .alk OF
meeting the exigcncy by the adoption
Of anti-dumping legislation. This, in
the opinion of many, is crude, and
will be wholly inadequate. There is
one method of meeting the situation
AMI that is by means of well adjusted
protective tariff system, that system
which stands as q great bulwark Of
safety in behalf of the American pro-

CALLS ON ACTORS
TO FIGHT WHITMAN
Association Remembers OPPOSE
ton TO Its Legislation.

Many actors of New York are OPP
posed 10 the reelection of Governor
Whitman, and a committee has been
appointed 10 conduct an open hght
against him. 4 bulletin issued by the
Actors Equity Association urges all
PLAYERS 10 get out on primary day ana
work against the Governor.
The feud against Whitman dates PACK
10 the time the actors wished 10 union
ize and Whitman opposed 1t. To pur-
sue the course they had in mind the
players required the passage or some
legislation. Whitman took such de-
termined attitude against the policy
that the players had TO abandon their
plans. Whitman was denounced at that
time and the actors never have Tor
given him. >.
Players take an active interest IN pom
tics and there are some real POLITICIANS
among them, so their influence will be
felt AZ the election. More than S,OOO
belong to the Equity Association and
the membership of the White Rats Is
more than $4,000.
While the organizations have taken
no active course in the Presidency. II IS

dream TO which he has tensciously
clung since he lost his fortune. He
went 10 prison vowing that he would
"come back; he walked forth 10 free

How does II feel TO be back in the

QUIT MEAT WHEN
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Take a Glass of Salts if Your Back
Hurts or Bladd Troubles You.

Take a Glass of Salts if Your Back
Hurts or Bladd Troubles You.
No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make mistake by
flushing the kidneys occasionally
says a well-known authority. Meat
forms uric acid which excites the
kidneys, they become overworked
from the strain, get sluggish and
fail to filter the waste and poison
from the blood, then eve get sick.
Nearly all rheumatism, headaches.
liver trouble, nervousness. dizziness,
sleeplessness and urinary disorders
come from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache
in the kidneys or your back hurts or
if the urine is cloudy, offensive. full
of sediment irregular of passage or
attended by sensation of scalding,
stop eating meat and get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar-
macy; take a tablespoonful in glass
of water before breakfast and in a
few days your kidneys will act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been
used for generations to flush and
stimulate the Kidneys also to neu-
tralize the acids in urine so 1T no
longer causes irritation, thus end
ing bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and can
not injure; makes delightful effer-
vescent Whitewater drink which ev-
eryone should take now and then to
keep the kidneys clean and active
and the blood pure, thereby avoid

ing spell.
Resta says he is getting ashamed
to take the money and has promised
not to enter every event in future.
He's going to skip few to give the
other boys chance.
Resta hurtled into the lime
light back in 1916 when he hit the
high spots in New York. Prior to
that he had done few fancy tricks
for the natives in France, Italy and
England, and when bs hove in view
off the statue of liberty he was well
fortified with bank roll even II he
hasn't scattered records on this side.
From Italy Resta snorted his in
trepid way into England and he i'm
mediately dare-deviled his way to
victory in three of England's
highest class events. That was In a
Mercedes, but he foresaw his colors
to climb a sunbeam. This mad no
effect on his neckbreaking speed,
for he went right on smashing
records and won the grand prix at
Amiens, just before the present
European war broke out.
In 1915 he began to dream
OF the American gold and HE'D him
self back to the bland shores of the
land of plenty, peace and gold. He
was in New York just a week and
then he beat it for San Francisco,
where he proceeded to win two
events right in succession, the Van
derbilt cup and the grand prize,
something unheafd OF up to that
time.
Then he went to Indianapolis and
engaged in one of the fiercest auto
mobile races ever run and forced
De Palma, another Italian, to the
very limit to win. At Chicago, he
won the 5O0-mile event and estab-
lished a new record.
Then they pulled off challenge
race at Chicago and Resta again
nailed his colors to the mast first.
This year has just been one vic
tory after another, including the big
events at Chicago and Indianapolis
Ir a championship series of races at
Chicago De Palma was beaten In
every event by the speedy italian.

IN THE SPRING AND GIVE

Says Pecan Crop In Black Land Beli
Is Best tn Re Found In the

j. A. Evans OF the extension de-
partment of A. a VI. college. known
as the pecan specialist. was spending
Thursday in the city for the purpose
of establishing an experimental sta
ton near Waxahachie to show what
can be done in the culture of pecans
He has selected the place OF Henry
Curry, four miles west of town, as
the experimental station. and in the
spring will come here and do some
budding, grating ard lecturing on
this work. He CRAFTS the paper
shell pecan onto the ordinary pecan
trees and makes them profitable.
He will also demonstrate how it ia
possible to graft the English walnut
onto the black walnut tree In
speaking of the pecan crop over
Texas Mr.. Evans said he was quite
sure Ellis county had as fine crop
as any other section of the state.
He says the advantage here is that
ii is a clean country In the western
part of the state the pecan weevil
thrives because there is 50 much
timber, but in counties where all the
land is in cultivation the weevil does
Tut little damage.
He declares there is a great deal
CT interest shown here in the cul-
ture of pecans and that he expects
t. get results from his demonstra-
items in the spring. His work is
being done under the direction of
d. d. Floyd, local farm demonstra-
ton agent
