NOTE: Folks in town and adjoining
counties are delighted with the results
theyhave obtained by using" ANURlC,"
the newest discovery o. DR.. Pierce, who
is head of the INvALIDs' HOTEL and
SURGICAL INSTITUTE, in Buffalo, N. Z.
Those who started the day with a back
ache, stiff legs, arms and muscles, and
an aching head worn out before the
day began because they were in and out
of bed half dozen times at night are
approaching the perfect rest, comfort
and new strength they obtained from
DR.. Fierce's Anuric Tablets. To prove
that this is a certain uric acid solvent
and conquers headache, kidney and
bladder diseases and rheumatism, if
you've never used the "Anuric," cut
this out and send ten cents to Doctor
Pierce for large sample package. This
will prove to you that "Anurlc" is
thirty seven times more active than
lithia in eliminating uric acid-and the
most perfect kidney and bladder cor
rector. If you are sufferer, 60 to your
best druggist and ask for a 5O-cent box
of uAnuric." You run no risk for DR..
Pierce's good name stands behind this
wonderful new discovery as it has for
the past half century for his vGolden
Medical Discovery" which makes the
blood pure, his uFavorite Prescription"
for weak women and vPleasant Pellets"
for liver ills.

SECOND DIVISION
MAY SOON co ABROAD
National CuardsInen Of New
England May Go With
First Division

Washington, Aug. 17-The second
Rainbow division--compose of national
guard troops from each New England
state, will soon go abroad. 1t may leave
simultaneously with the first Rainbow
division.
Supplies are being gathered for both
divisions and the rapidity with which
these are collected and the availability
of transports will determine the time
of leaving.
Major General Clarence Edward, COM
mander of the northeastern department
with headquarters at Boston, will be
commander of the second division.
The New England forces collected
for the second division will probably
not be sent to southern camps at all.
Some of the New England men were
originally picked to go in General
Mann s first division, but it was decid-
ed it would be better to keep the New
England troops together. According to
present plans, some of the second divis-
ion may embark with the first.
Small detachments of the national
guard are now moving to southern
camps, but the general movements will
not start for about another week. War
department estimates indicate that the
last of the guard camps will be ready
by September first.
The second division will include all
of the New England troops who were
intended for the Charlotte, N. G. camp.

Railroads Will Give
One and One Third Rate
to the State Fair

In announcing today that all of the
railrods of the state will give a one
and a third fare to state fair visitors
travelling over their lines, A. H. Lea,
secretary of the state fair board, said
that he had also asked the Southern
Pacific and Oregon Electric railroad
companies to put on special night
train from the fair grounds to Portland
during fair week.
81 have suggested that both put on
a special train that will leave the
grounds at 10 clock at night for Port
land, said Secretary Lea. "Such a
service would enable Portland visitors
to the fair to attend the night enter
tainments, and arrive in Portland in
ample time to catch the street cars
for their homes.'
The railroads who have advised Sec
retary Lea that they will give a one
and third passenger fare are: the
Oregon Washington Railroad & Navi-
CATION company, the southern Pacific,
the Oregon Electric, the Great North
ern, the Union Pacific, the Northern
Pacific and the Oregon Short Line.
The railroad companies some time
ago advised the secretary that they
would transport exhibits to and from
the fair free, provided they are return
ed to the originating point within a
certain time.

KERENSKY ADMITS
SOCIALISM failure
Russian Socialists Generally,
Realize Need of Other
Elements
(By William G. shepherd)

kOnlteu 1rtSS cIdII correspondent
Moscow, Aug. 17.-Socialism has
failed in Russia.
Premier Kerensky has recognized the
fact and the great conference here on
August % will mark the end of the
pan-socialistic rule of Russia and the
entrance of new elements of conserva-
tion in comWerce and finance.
Socialists themselves, and Kerensky
is one, realize that they failed in their
attempt to govern single handed. This
was partly because the cities of Russia
are socialistic and the country conser-
vative and also because the peasants
refused to sell food to the cities, declar-
ing money was of no use to them be-
cause of the high prices in the cities.
In addition the socialists in the cities
were involved in continual quarrels
among themselves This resulted in the
July troubles and killings in Petrograd.
In addition, there was too much of an
attempt to govern behind the scenes
without assuming responsibility by hav-
ing a majority of socialists in the gov
ernment.
Fears of return to monarchy in Rus
sia are nonsense, all agree here today.
"A IcpuDlC ID lucNltdDlc, dltHOuSh Iu-
mors of monarchial plots persist and
resulted in the removal Of the Roman
offs to Siberia.
With this state of affairs, Kerensky IS
recognition of the failure of Russian
socialism is regarded as having firmly
established his greatness. The mind
no observer OF Russian affairs has fail
ed to realize that the sort of socialism
that some hope and others fear, may
rule the world some day, must be diff
ferent.
Socialists, themselves, are disillusion-
ed. I have heard a score of American
socialists say that to meet with success,
socialism must be brought up to date
and made more practical.

Salem Boy Writes
of His Experiences
In Uncle Sans NAVY

The wide travel Of a navy man is
shown in letter from Harold H. Smith,
of this city, to Machinist J. E. Adams,
IN charge of the navy recruiting sta
ton here. Young Smith enlisted four
months ago and was sent to the training
station at San Francisco where he re-
maiped three weeks. Then he was ship
ped out on the U. S. S. San Diego and
began his travels about the Pacific and
Atlantic until he has landed in New
York harbor and is anchored near
Brooklyn Bridge.
"Our first cruise was over to Homo
lulu," he says in his letter, "to. CON
voy German ship which had been in.
termed there to Bremerton. We were
out seventeen days, which passed quick
ly. We laid in Frisco bay for few days
on our return, then left for San Diego
where we were several days at rifle
practice and gun drill.
"We left there July 10 for fsome
where but we did not know where. We
passed through the Panama canal July
29. Believe me, it was some hot for a
few days along the Mexican coast. And
l was on the fires too. We eoaled ship
at Panama, natives slowing the bunk
ers.
"We arrived at Hampton Roads, July
4, laid there until yesterday, when we
left for New York. And here we are,
anchored near the Brooklyn Bridge.
Starboard watch secured liberty and I
am on port watch. I will not go until
tomorrow. 1 think we will be here for
some time, so will get to see a great
deal of the cities here.
"There sure is a bunch of your re-
cruits on board this ship. 1t makes it
seem like home. There are d. L. Meider-
heiser, Clifford Smart, Ralph Mercer,
H. Radcliffe, Alfred Berg, NJ. A. Hitch
cock and brother L. n. Hitchcock, and
myself.

They help to pass the time away when
we are in port. We also have a good

dock and have some aeroplane hangers
installed like those of the Huntington. -

The Iron Cross Gave
Him the Double Cross

San Francisco, Aug. 17.-An iron
cross found among his effects proved
the undoing of Lieutenant Erwin
Schneider, of the German navy, who
was interned at Fort Mcdowell today
by order of President Wilson. Theodore
Kassinger a former store clerk here,
was interned with him. Schneider is
suspected Of being an important Ger
man spy.
He tried to enlist in the aviation
corps of the United States army recent
ly. He has been under surveillance since
lie was found to be assisting four Aus
trians, believed enemy agents, in at
tempting to gain military information.
A few weeks ago Schneider tried to
ship on a Swedish ship and thus get
back to Germany.
