Don't Increase Postal Rates.

1t will be a SERIOUS mistake il
Congress decides to place additional
burdens upon the newspaper indus
try by increased mail rates.
The press of the country speaks
from no selfish standpoint when it
collectively registers its opposition
to tax that will be direct upon the
masses, since an increase in mail
rates, with the existing price of print
paper, must presuppose an increase
price to the reader of the average
daily newspaper.
Today the newspaper is read by
almost every element and class in the
United States. Its appeal has been
largely due to the fact that knowl-
edge of the contemporary history of
the world as it develops from day to
day in these momentous times, can
be secured for a penny or two cents.
The newspaper has been the prin-
cipal instructor in modern history
for the average man. 1t is no longer
recognized as luxury but as a ne
cessity in the average home.
Print paper prices, cost of delivery,
labor and essentials that enter into
the production of the average daily
have advanced to the price to the
point that the majority of the daily
publications have been obliged to
reduce in size or increase in price.
The additional tax proposed by Con-
gress will mean increase in price
There is no other logical conclusion
than that the cost to the reader must
be advanced if many struggling daily
and weekly newspapers are to sur
vive.
With the war problems confront
ing America every organ breeding
patriotism and loyalty to the flag is
needed. To cause any considerable
number to suspend publication by
burdensome taxes is not in conform
ity with spirit that wants to util-
ize every agency to aid in this war,
and its inevitable victory for the
American colors.
We have no doubt Congress will
reject any additional taxes placed
upon the press of the country but
the Congressional committees should
register their desire to aid a force
behind President Wilson and the
government of inestimable value by
turning down the proposed increases.

A Bad Back
Made Good
nv l.. W, BOWER. NJ, d.


Backache of any kind is often caus-
ed by kidney disorder, which means
that the kidneys are not working
properly. Poisonous matter and uric
acid accumulate within the body in
great abundance, oVerworking the
sick kidneys, hence the congestion OF
blood causes backsche in the same
manner as a similar congestion in the
head causes headache. You become
nervous, despondent, sick, fevcrish,
irritable, have spots appearing before
the eyes, bags under the lids, and
lack of ambition to do things.
The latest and most effective means
of overcoming this trouble is to eat
sparingly of meat, drink plenty of
water between meals and take a sin
gle Anuric tablet before each meal
for while.
Simply ask your favorite druggist
for Anuric double strengthl, if you
aren't feeling up to the standard. If
you have lumbago, rheumatism,
dropsy, begin Immediately this treat
ment with Anuric. Most scientists
and medical men believe that because
of an overbundance of uric acid in
the system, uratic salts are deposited
in the tissues and cause rheumatism
and gout.
The physicians and specialists at
DR.. Pierce's Institution in Buffalo,
n. Y, have thoroughly tested An
uric and have been with one accord
successful in eradicating and throw
ing off from the system the uric
acid which accumulates and Poisons.
Patients having once used Anuric
at this institution have repeatedly
sent back for more.
Such a demand has been created
that Doctor Pierce decided TO put
Anuric in the drug stores Of this
country, in a ready-to-use form. IT
will be their own fault il those suf-
fering from uric acid troubles do not
take advantage of this wonderful
rcmedy-Adv.

"The First Ten Thousand. d "

The American colors will be ON
French soil at the earliest possible
moment.
That Is what the call for @the first
ten thousand" means. We are not
going to have troops on the firing
line. but we will have engineers back
OF the line, and their work will be
equally important.
Marshal Jeffre has won a victory.
So has Gen. Bridges. So have the
officials of the administration not
under the the tutelage of the Army
General Staff, whose ardor for send
ing troops to France has never been
high.
A distinguished honor will fan to
those chosen for service in the first
units to be sent to gallant France,
now so sorely pressed. The trans
port problem for the western front
will be thrust upon them. Perhaps
they will reach France in time to aid
in the Encouragement of allied artil-
lery on the cambrai-Douai line, pre-
liminary to the new offensive which
will drive the Teuton beyond the
French frontier.
There is no body of military en-
gineers in the world whose standard
is so high or whose personnel is so
rigidly selected as that of the United
States army. They are literally the
pick" of our military establishment.
They may be trusted to organize two
regiments whose work in France
will do credit to the American name.
We hope the sending of these
units to the western front may be
followed by the sending of a similar
detachment to Russia. The trans
port problem there is of colossal
proportions, but American engineer
ing energy and talent can solve it
If it is called to the scene promptly.
Arrangements for such a force
should be made even before the Root
mission reaches Petrograd. There is
no doubt that Russia would welcome
the Americans with open arms, nor
that their work would be of vital
Importance.

Now that practically the entire world

large part of its foodstufYs and other
supplies, this country is beginning to feel
its responsibilities. Likewise it is begin
ming to realize its shortcomings and
handicaps. So far as men and money
are concerned, there is an abundance for
war purposes; but the big problem is
that OF providing supplies, and an ade-
quate system for their distribution How
to accomplish this end without disrupt
ing business Is the question Of the hour
Although the country has Just entered
the war, and although Transportation IA
cilities have not yet begun to feel the
demand that will be made upon them
for moving OF troops and provisions, the
railway systems OF the United States are
