Snatched from
the Grave As She
was Ready TO Die

Nine years ago friends and relatives
of Mrs. Kit Albaugh, of Kendalville.
Ind, daily watched her health fail I'M
til she was just skin and bones. She
weighed only ninety-eight pounds.
She was prepared to die, and expected
each breath to be her last one. Her
heart was so bad that she couldn't go
up or down stairs without sitting down
several times. Horrible dreams un-
nerved her. Her heart pumped and
fluttered She could get no rest, and
grew weaker and weaker. After she
had given up to die she heard OF HulPs
Superlative. Here is what she says:
Il could notice different action In my
heart after l had taken Hulps Superla-
tive only three days. / soon began to
sleep better and eat better l grew
stronger, and for the past five years
I am feeling like new person. l
have gained fifty pounds and can do
more work now than / ever could be-

The A ]. Hull Medicine Company,
of Findlay, o., has thousands of testi-
monials just as wonderful as that of
Mrs. Albaugh, and what Hulis Super

humanity in general it certainly should

The emphasis due to bold face type is ours.
The emphasis and gravity of truth are in those
warning words of the patriotic editor OF the
Herald.
Someone has said, God surely loves the COM
mon people, He made so many Of them"
The hand of providence is not unseen in the
tragic and unnecessary death of our two heroic
American nurses. Who knows but for this Incl
dent there might have been no cause for CreePs
bureaucratic outburst. Without this the Ameri-
can people might have remained asleep until con-
gress had given away their blrthrlgnt OF hDerty
and censorship was an accomplished fact.
Censorship means slavery. 1t means petty
and ignorant official in charge of the news de-
partments of every American newspaper. AN Oh
ficial who to save his own hide and salary, will
censor the news to protect the interests OF MS
superiors. In other words censorship means just
on TOP and at the bottom slavery for the great
masses denied their rightful information con-
corning the affairs of their government and the
actions of its officials.
After this providential warning there is no
mistaking the duty of Congress. President VIII
sons unconstitutional request for censorship
powers must be overwhelmingly defeated.
President Wilson was elected by majority OF
American citizens to lead and serve, not rule, all
the American people. Great forces have decreeo
that his period of service shall fall during time
when Americans are battling for the rights OF
democracy and for the overthrow of autocracy
1t is time, therefore, that he realizes the
American people view with an unfriendly and dis
trustful eye attempts by anyone to Interfere with
or subserve their fundamental and constitutional
rights to freedom of speech and free press
They furthermore particularly resent such eff
forts at this time because of the internal dlssen
sions that are thereby engendered.
The American people today live for one pur
pose, to hold and protect the rights they have al
ready won and to safeguard the future OF those
rights and liberties by whole heartedly aiding II
the crusade to abolish the worlds autocracies.
It is President Wilson's duty now to lead Us
in this great fight and to do SO without establish
ing dangerous precedents by overthrowing any o.
our vital liberties.
We know the fate of republican Rome how i
became the property of the Imperial Caesars
That fate shall not be ours fifty years henc
through precedents now to be established.
! This country shall remain the nation OF Lin
coin, chat government of the people, for tn
people and by the people shall not perish from
the EARTH
PRESIDENT WILSON MUST DO HIS DUTY
CONSTITUTIONALLY.

The Censorship Danger Unmasked

Exactly what honest, fearless and loyal news
papers have been predicting would happen II
President Wilson should succeed in obtaining a
censorship over the free press and freedom OF
speech, has come to pass.
George Creel, appointed by President Wilson
to be chairman of the Committee of Public In
formation-the present illegal board OF censor
ship-has attacked an American newspaper be-
cause it dared comment editorally upon glarlng
instance of official incompetency.
Creel reprimanded the editor of the Wash
