KIDNEY REMEDY
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

There is no medicine which we handle
that gives such good results as your
Swamp Root. Many of our customers
have informed us at different times that
they have derived great benefit from it's
use.
There was one case in particular which
attracted a great deal of attention in this
neighborhood early last Spring, as the
gentleman's life was despaired Of and two
doctors treating him for liver and kidney
trouble were unable to give him any re-
lief Finally a specialist from st. Louis
was called in but failed to do him any
good. | at last induced him to try your
Swamp Root and after taking it for three
months, he was attending to his business
as usual and is now entirely well. This
case has been the means of creating an
increased demand for your Swamp-Root
with US.

The Gar in Siberia.

Nicholas Romanoff, former Car of
Russia, goes to Siberia, a prisoner of
stated What fall from the high place
of power! Siberia, the land of exile and
imprisonment, of punishment and tor
ture, the dark land where political pris-
oners have languished for many years
and have been forgotten by all but their
families; where they have died, old men
and women, after terrible sufferings and
the hardest work! For Nicholas, how
ever, Siberia is virtually refuge. IT is
a place where he can be safe from in
jury. His transfer there is to remove
him Immediately from the area of coun-
exploiting, but it will actually make
for his personal security. How long he
will be kept there is, of course, I'M
known. He may stay in Siberia for
years, awaiting trial, or he may be
brought back to some more comfortable
| exile. 1t is safe to predict, however,
that he will stay in the bleak eastern
land as long as the war lasts. When
peace has been restored to Europe and
Russia gets under way in working out
new organization, Nicholas may be
permitted to return. There will be sym
pathy for him, of course, in the dreary
exile to which he is sent. Indeed, there
is feeling Of pity for him generally,

the police action by sentencing the Of

or to spend thirty days each in Jail 1t
Is now up to the citizens to cooperate
in this effort to maintain order in the
streets pf Washington by paying NO
heed whatever to the persistent efforts
Of the pickets. All these misguided
women want is to attract attention to
themselves, and they will be grievously
disappointed and their object thwarted
If the public ignores them entirely. The
whole purpose of the arrests and pros
eoution is to. prevent the obstruction
of the way, and the citizens can best
assure that end by refraining from any
display Of curiosity or interest in the
proceedings around the White House in
ease the pickets persist in defying the
order that has been given them to keep
away from there. It those who 60 forth

and If they are promptly taken in Gus
tody and convicted Of violating the law,
this obnoxious agitation will soon be
suppressed.

as weak man who in the course Of his
czarship was himself more the victim
of a vicious system than the cause Of it.
He had no vision, no strength Of char
acter, not even the force Of tyrant.
He was puppet in the control Of ADLER
men who worked upon his superstitions
and fears and prejudices to gain their
own ends through the continuation Of
the corrupt, intolerant and incapable
methods of government that had devel-
oped in Russia during many decades Of
autocracy. Nicholas had a chance to
be a real leader of his people. They
would have remained loyal to him at
the end but for the knowledge that he
could not be trusted to stand for lib
erty of the individual and the develop
ment of Russia. The revolution marked
him for removal, and it is to the high
credit of the men who have managed
the reconstruction of Russia that there
has been no design to bring the former
ruler to the bar for trial for his life.

Aliens and Military Duty.

President Wilson stands for a scrupu-
lous observance of American treaty OBJ
legations in the matter Of the drafting
Of aliens into the American military
service This is sound position and
| should be maintained. The United
States does not need men so badly for
military duty that 1t must treat treaties
as scraps of paper. Indeed, it would
better suffer in the field for lack of
troops than TO encroach in any degree
upon the rights of aliens under existing
international agreements. As a matter
Of fact we do not actually need the
services Of those who are not yet Ameri-
can citizens. There are plenty of men
able to fight who are native Americans
or fully nationalized. At this moment
the United States is protesting through
a neutral power against a reported draft
ing by Germany into military service
of American citizens resident there. We
must keep our hands absolutely clean
in this matter. Not even if Germany
should press our nationals into service
against the international law on the
subject should America adopt this prac-
tice, either in reprisal or as matter
of military necessity, so long as the trea-
ties stand as they are written.
At the same time, there should be
some amendment of the existing treaties
with nations with which the United
States is at peace to permit the en-
rollment of their nationals living in this
country. Alien residents in the United
States should either serve this country
or return home. They should not be
granted immunity from military duty
simply by reason of their lack of Amer
lean citizenship. This is particularly
true in the case Of the nationals of the
allied countries at war It is obvious
that equity demands that Frenchman,
an Englishman, an Italian or Russian
living here should be subject to military
duty under either the American flag or
the flag of his own country. There are
numerous cases of aliens resident in
tie United States who, if at home, would
be compelled to do military duty in the
allied ranks, but under the treaties, as
they stand, they cannot be enrolled un-
der any banner so hong as they remain
in this country. An alien of a national
ity with which the United States is at
peace should be subject to call here un-
less he prefers to return to his own
land. The amendment of existing trea-
ties to this effect is urgently required.

A German View of Peace.

Whatever the belief as to the inspi
ration of the papal peace proposition

and the occupied regions Of France, be

POPE'S PEACE MOVE.

From the Springfield Republican.
1t is today no more the Office of
sound craftsmanship to make peace in
considerably or weakly than it was in
the beginning to make war impulsively
or lightly.
From the Chicago Herald.
The papal appeal to all the belligerents
to compose their differences on certain
bases roughly outlined gives Germany
again the opportunity to be concrete
which it has heretofore SO resolutely re-
jected.
From the Charleston News and Courier.
The formal submission by Pope Bene-
dict of peace proposals to all the war
ring governments must be recognized at
once as an event of very great impor-

The Vatican's peace proposals are
doomed to failure, not alone because
the terms are in themselves unsatis-
factory to the free peoples that are bat
Ting against Prussianisn1. but because
of the character of the German govern
ment with which these peoples are
asked to negotiate.

lost others. The ofice-holder, eonscien-
tious in the discharge Of his duties, &C.
quilted himself well in every post he
filed.
It was long step from the city at
torneyship Of Kokomo to senatorship
in Congress and the majority leadership
in that body; but Mr.. Kern made it. 1t
is noteworthy, too, that, for time, his
had advanced as he had from small to
big things. Thomas Taggart began in
ward politics, and in season became the
mayor Of Indianapolis. The city attor-
ney was John w. Kern. Later, they met
in the Senate, and last November both
standing for reelection were defeated
together.
The effect Of Mr.. Kern's death on In
diana politics may not be pronounced.
He held good station in his party's coun-
ellis. His place was with the leaders.
A few years ago Mr.. Marshall, Thomas
Taggart, Benjamin Shively, John E.
Lamb and Mr.. Kern dominated the
Hoosier democracy. Only Mr.. Marshall
and Mr.. Taggart are alive today, and
the republicans, successful Hast Novem-
Der, hold the governorship and the two
United States senatorships.
Indiana for many years has been
close, in both state and national con-
tests. The politicians on both sides play
q stiff game; and this will make it nee
essary that the man who takes Mr..
Kern's place as party adviser be young
and vigorous and capable, abreast of the
times, and with full knowledge Of the
local necessities. Nearing his seven
tieth year, Mr.. Kern had lost some of
his physical edge and the joy Of battle.

The full text of the Pope's proposed
peace terms shows that they are much
narrower than the advance summary
indicated. He does not, as was report
ed, recommend the evacuation of Ru-
mania and Serbia. but only of Belgium
and northern France.
From the New York Herald.
When the hideous blight OF Prussian-
ism Is destroyed forever the German
people can have peace, not before.
Any peace" proposal that does not
contemplate unconditional surrender by
Germany contemplates a peace not
worth thinking about.
From tho Philadelphia Ledger.
With every desire to end a terrible
conflict, the allies cannot go blindly
into discussions SO long as the sincerity
Of one side is open to suspicion. That
is the real obstacle to the frank and
full acceptance of the Pope's plan.
From the Philadelphia Press.
It 10 unbelievable that the entente
nations viii consent to an armistice
and q peace conference on such un.
promising beginnings.
