Thousands Have Discovered Dr.,
Edwards Olive Tablets are
q Harmless Substitute

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub.
stitu.e for calomcl--arc q mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. They are the re-
suit Of Or. Edwards determination not
to treat liver and bowel complaints with
calomei. His efforts to Danish it brought
out these little olivc-colored tablets.
These pleasant little tablets do the
good that calomel does, but have no bad
after effects. They don't injufe the
teeth like strong liquids or calomel.
They take hold of the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the liver
at the expense of the teeth? Calomel
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
So do strong liquids. 1t is best not TO
take calomei, but to let DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets take its place.

CHINESE GROW
MORE INDIGNANT
Detention of Chinese
Minister a Cause
Berlin Holds Students AS Well
As Their Representatives

Picking, April 23-The war senti-
ment in China is increasing daily. The
Chinese are incensed over the action
of Germany in OBTAINING the Chinese
minister in Berlin pending the safe
arrival of Won Hintze, German minis
ter to Picking. There also is great in
dignation over the detention of Chi
nese students in Berlin and Munich.
The military governors will hold
their first war conference in Picking
on April Is. The majority of the gov
errors and parliament favor war. but
they differ over the attitude China
should adopt toward the Entente. The
indications are that China will declare
war independently.
The Chinese newspapers reproduce
Washington dispatch from DR.. V. X.
Wellington Koo. Chinese minister to
the United States in which he urges
China to declare war by itself and not
in partnership with the Entente. Dr.
koo argues that Chinas position would
be stronger il it acted independently
than II 1t co-operated with the Allies
and the United States.

NOME, ALASKA, JAN. 8, 1917.

Here are two sides to almost every question This may be denied by both of the parties to a controversy who naturally can see each his own side only. The fact that there is a con- troversy at all proves that there are two sides to 1t. Which attitude one should take on public question may be determined by any of a number Of things. Chief among the factors determining any mans belief are class sympathies, expediency. and a simple selies of justice. Expediency which Is bssed on self-interest Is probably the most potent factor. Very often 1t is compeIuug rorce overcoming both a mans sense of justice anu class loyalty. For instance a bookkeeper tr corporation may be convinced that the workme1s demands for higher wages are Just and that they should win their strike against their social superlors among whom the bookkeeper is classed as a very hum ble integer. But the bookkeeper may not utter his thoughts or do anything for those whose claims he considers just. because if he does he will lose his lob and his family will soon be in pen. ury. We are all of us subject to pre- judices and economical l conditions which often prevent our doing full Justice in our thoughts and deeds to the concerns of others.
 Early in November a number of Industrial Workers of the World starttd from their headquarters in Seattle and marched In military Cor mation through the streets to the dcck where they took boat for Everett. On arrival at the latter place they were met by a large party of officers and armed citizens of that place who had been sworn in as deputies These representatives of the law would nj allow the 1. W. W. members 10 dia- embark. When they attempted to iInd they were shot by the officers. They had armed in anticipat ton of such a reception and promptly returned the fire. Six persons were killed and thirtv or more were wounded in this pitched battle. 1t was we'll known t' the l. W. W. members that they were not wanted ip Everett as work n,aa in the mills or as residents le. cause they openly preached the gos- pei cf discontent to the mill employ Prs.

n,ign, have wondered why the oeop;e uf Everett would not allow members of that particular organization to stay in the city and what kind of. a pcrtation. But it was probably with most readers a question of little mo- mcnt because all of the facts were not known and because the battle ground was so far removed It prob. ably did not occur to them that 'hi3 Everett battle is only one of many symptoms of the social unrest throughout the United States, that 1t Is only one of the many tragedies which are occurring when working men rebel at the usurpation or dom. ination not only of the resources of the country but of the very laws which are supposed to have been enacted for the protection of the weak 30 tha, all may have equal rights.
 The gospel of discomfort preached by the I. W. w. is repuglant. the songs of hate published and sung by this o, ganization are both sacriligious and destructive. and the aims and meth- ods of these men seem to be against good citizenship but they are human beings and think they have real grievances against society. Perhaps they have, most things depend on the viewpoint anyhow. And the way they were treated at Everett Is not going to make them feel more kindly to- wards representatives of law, owners of mills. or the social structure in which we live.
 The l. w. W. side of the affair was stated by Mayor Gill of Seattle who prefaced his remarks with the state ment that probably no one In the world disliked the organization more , than he. But. he said, they had grounds for grievance. It appears that If a man in overalls appeared in E., erett he was questioned by officers and If 1t turned out that he belong ed to the l. W. W. he was forced to leave town forthwith. A few days before the pitched battle on the docks about forty members of this orgauiza-
 ton were taken to wood and SC verely beaten. Seventeen of them al once went to the hospital in Seattle be treated for the injuries re- ceived at that time and one of the poor chaps had a broken arm. These men felt, as American citizens, thai they had a right to go to Everett oi any other city, and they determln- ed to go back Tn order to defend themselves against another beating they went armed. A Seattle police man telephoned the Everett authori- ties that the mob was coming by boat and that they were armed to defend they attempted to land they met 6 fusilade of bulelts.
 Gill states significantly that the Everett mills control the city and these mills are owned by the Weyer-
 haeusers and other big timber in- terests. Not only the city but the county of Snohomish Is controlled by

novel mercilessly to make John Loder-

munitions plan is so necessary to the
empire that he forgets pride and takes
the place that the ventriloquism and
good stage management of Mr.. Guy

Did Mr.. Post pick "Ihc Masque-

in "Omar, the Tentmaker," minus, of
course, the bastinado and the floating
