WASHINGTON, Aug 6.-The deaths
Of the men who have died in the Okla
homa ,draft riots were laid at the door
of Senator Gore, Of that state, because
of the doctrines the blind Senator has
preached in the Senate. by Senator
Chamberlain, of Oregon, to-day in one
of the bitterest personal debates that
have taken place in the upper house for
long time.
This particular clash occurred after
Senator Chamberlain, who was IN
charge of the food bill, had upbraided
Chairman Gore Of the Agricultural
Committee for his continued obstruc-
zionist practices. Mr.. Gore resented
this and attacked Mr.. Chamberlain for
receding in conference othe House.
There is not very much in this con-
ference report that the Senator from
Oklahoma thinks is right" said Sena-
tor Chamberlain. Gas matter of fact,
while he is tattooing into the fore
neaOS OF ocHdlOIS WIN iN~NNNN WV
word 'recede' they might tattoo in the
Senator's forehead and in the foreheads
of some others the word 'obstruct.'
Used Stiletto
"There are two ways to obstruct.
One is by the use Of bludgeon and
the other is by the use Of a stiletto.
It is true, as the Senator says, that
when this bill was introduced IN the
Senate il was introduced by me at mis-
request, but there has not been time
since | introduced that bill in the Sen
ate of the United States that the dis
tinguished chairman of the committee
has not used a stiletto on the bill
whenever he had an opportunity TO DO
so. say that without unkindness, but
| say il is true just the same.
81 had rather be charged with follow
ing in the footsteps of the distin-
guished President of the United States
in the conduct Of this war, crawling,
IL YOU please, on my knees and licking
the dust from bis feet, as has been
suggested here, than TO stand in oppo-
sition TO him and to be consorting with
and conspiring with and treating with
the enemies OF the President Of the
United States
This reference to licking the Presi-
dents boots was in reply to Senator
Reed, of Missouri, who bitterly reviled
those Senators who were seeking favor
at the White House.
Points to Riots
"To those Senators who have been
opposing the Administration contin-
ued Mr.. Chamberlain. mot only in ref
erence TO raising an army, but in sup
plying the army, we have the distin-
guished and illustrious example OF men
in various sections of the country
standing out against the President Of
Tho limited States and standing out
against the law which enabled the
President TO raise an army in the
United States.

rid Of this discussion If IT is possible

ate and put this bill through so that
for good or evil IL may find place
on the statute books and that the
President may have an opportunity TO

LONDON. Aug. Sin every bellig-
erent country the Socialists are gain
ing tremendously in power, and they
are infinitely stronger to-day than IN
August. 1914. They are waging cam
paign for peace by negotiation. They
argue that they can make a good peace
tomorrow, and they declare that every
day the war is prolonged the greater
will be the burden the people must
bear when it ends.
Americans must listen to the utter
ances of European statesmen with the
same care with which they watch de-
velopments in the battle zones. They
must remember that Europe has had
three years of war. that millions OF
men have been killed and wounded.
that the munitions workers, men and
women. have labored as never before
that life has become infinitely more
complex, that few promises CT 1914
have been fulfilled, even in 1917. and
that no government can long survive
unless it shows successes.
Socialists Join Workmen
Recent dispatches from Petrograo
convey the interesting information
that a meeting of the Council OF work
mems and Soldiers Delegates was st-
tended by the Austrian Socialist ot'o
Bauer. who accompanied the Soclaiis'
ministers Tseretelli and skobelef.
There is nothing surprising IN this
announcement. For weeks there nave
been almost daily negotiations between
Vienna and Petrograd. not necessarily
official. but almost as important Inc
people of the Entente and Centrai
leagues know we'll what efforts are
being made to arrange peace. ana thsy

say: Lets see what the other fellow

Ii would be wrong to believe that me
great body working in the belligerent
nations for peace is composed Of paei-
fists. The professional pacitists are
doing little now. They think 1t un-
necessary and that it would inJure
the movement if they identified them
selves prominently with it.
Every speech the European states
men are making these days shows that
they, too, are modifying their views
and that the leaders are letting The
people down by degrees. This is ap-
parent in the Kaiser's last utterance
and in Lloyd Georges anniversary
specch. but events are moving so rap
idly that the leaders are finding 1T dit-
ficult to keep up the pace.
Few CUTTERS in Europe
But the great change in the last two
months does rot mean peace unless II
is a peace which the people consider
honorable. There are few cutters IN
Europe. The people have sacrifced TOO
much to fear sacrificing more if they
consider 1t necessary. 1t is not pc
cause Europe fears another winter so
Greatly that it is rushing into peace.
The people, that is, the Socialists. La
bor and a lot of others, want TO ex-
haust all the possibilities Of negotla-
tion before they decide that they must
fight further.
British Labor will decide this week,
and probably favorably. 1t would be
gross libel to call Labor pro-Germani
there is no more patriotic body. 1t is
lust az absurd to call every peace more
a German trick. The first Of the fourth
wear will be fully as interesting from
a political as from military stand
point.

Gore Attacked in Senate
AS Inciter of Draft Riots
Chamberlain, in Food Bill Debate, Declares Okla
homa Members Utterances Give Encouragement
to Rebellious Elements and Points to Deaths in
West-Hot Denial by Blind Senator

ident, let me say that this is not the
first administration bill he has OPP
posed. lie has the right to do it; 1t IS
his duty to do it when he feels that
his conscience calls him TO do il, but
the Senator seems 20 forget that The
United States is at war with one of the
most powerful nations on the face OF
the earth. Not only has he obstructed
this measure. but he has obstructed
other measures, and if the Senator
claims any glory from it, Mr.. Presl-
dent, | call attention to the fact that
some of the measures that he opposed
and some of the doctrines that he has
preached have been resulting in the
death of a number of the young fell
lows out in his state Whether he was
instrumental in bringing it about, or
not, | do not know, but well do | know
that the very men who are resisting
the enforcement of the law that was
enacted by Congress on the recommen-
dation of the President of the United
States, derive encouragement from the
preachments Of the Senator in his state
and in other parts of the United
States
Gore Voices Denial
Senator Gore, denied obstructing the
bill or. as Senator Chamberlain had
suggested the army draft law.
Senator Hollis, who served promi-
nently in drafting the so-called lead
ers' compromise" bill in the Senate, an
nounced that he would vote against
the conference report because of elimi-
nation OF his amendment designed to
exempt labor unions from the pro-
visions of the bill.
Recession Of the Senate conferrees
on the provision for a Congressional
committee TO supervise war eXpendi-
lures. stricken out largely because of
the Presidents strong opposition, was
denounced by Senator Hardwick and
defended by Senators Williams and
Wolcott.
Senator Williams declared that there
is either more intended than is appar-
ent in the language of the proposal TO
create the joint committee on war ex-
penditures, or il is unnecessary.
'lf ii has any ulterior purpose, what
is it?" he demanded. at may be to dis
play suspicion and create lack of trust
in the executive whose duty it is to
carry on the war"
Cites Lincoln's Example
The Mississippi Senator declared
that were he the President and such a
committee was authorized by Congress
he would veto the measure and tell
il he was responsible TO the people
who elected him, and that he regarded
such an act as an expression of lack
of confidence. He pointed out that
Congress already has power TO investi-
gate every item of expenditure. and
cited the experiences of President Lin
coin with a Congressional committee
on conduct Of the Civil War as a warn
ing of what could be expected from
the creation of committee on war ex-
penditures.
Senator Wolcott declared that the
Congressional committee during the
Civil War had abused it's power and
attempted to dictate the military and
navy campaigns.

Simple Laxative Remedy
Best for Constipation
DR.. CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin
Gave Satisfaction When
Nothing Else Would

Nearly everyone, at one time or an
other, suffers from constipation, or in

illusions upon which the doctors agree
Is that regularity of the bowels is an
essential to good health.
In the family medicine chest of most

one or more Of the various remedies
recommended for the relief of consti-
patton. In the majority of homes today
the combination of simple laxative herbs
with pepsin known as DR.. CaldwelPs
Syrup Pepsin is recognized as the stand
ard laxative. Druggists everywhere re-
port constantly increasing demand for
this splendid remedy which is sold for
fifty cents bottle.
Mr.. James Ash, l02 Green ST., Cum

he found DR.. Caldwelps Syrup Pepsin
the most effective remedy for consti-
patton he had ever used and that he al

laxative, and does not grippe or strain,
but acts gently and brings relief in an

MORE RAILWAYS
TO USE WOMEN
Three Central West Railroads Have
Adopted the
Plan.

Chicago, May 4.--Three more centra
western railroads announced yesterday
that in the future they would employ
women in all departments possible where
the men had left their positions to join
the colors.
The Chicago, Milwaukee & St Paul
Chicago q Alton and the Monon are
the roads preparing TO meet the situa.
tion created by shortage of men. EN-
ployes who enlist are assured of the re-
turn of their positions at the end of the
war.
j. n. Redfern, head OF the employ
ment department of the Burlington, said
women were being put into all office
and clerical positions made vacant by
enlistment of men in the army and navy.
Local operating officials of the Balti-
more & Ohio railway said orders were
expected from the Baltimore offices to
take like steps. Similar action will be
taken by the Commonwealth Edison
company and the Peoples Gas com
pany, both of which employ immense
forces.
Representatives of women's clubs of
Chicago have launched plan for these
various forces to enter a state league
for women's service, which will be allili-
ated with some national body to be des-
ignated by the council of national de-
tense. The league will act as clear
ing house for placing women in wage
earning positions which have previously
been occupied by men.
Because the Stewart-Warner Speed
ometer company planned to replace
piece workers who earn from SIS to S25
week with girls who get SO to SIP,

COLONEL'S PLAN
GAINS IMPETUS
Washington Now Thinks He
Will Be Sent to
France
CONFERENCE
ON THE BILL
Borah's Offer to Serve with
Roosevelt Aids the
Amendment

Washington, May with the offer of
Senator Borah to serve with Col. Roose-
welt in France added to the request of
the French commission for small di-
vision of American troops as soon as
possible, the feeling grew stronger yes
terday that the Harding amendment per-
hitting Roosevelt to go to France would
| be included in the CONSUMPTION bill as
finally passed.
Senator Borah sent a telegram to Col.
| Roosevelt Wednesday night offering his
| services in any capacity they might prove
acceptable. He expressed a desire to get
to the firing line with all possible speed
and said he believed the amendment per-
hitting the colonel to raise troops would
be accepted by the House.
That belief became more and more gen
eral. Senator Chamberlain, chairman of
the Senate committee, yesterday joined
the forces of those backing the Harding
amendment. Although he has vigorously
opposed all volunteer plans up to the
present, he declared he would support
the Roosevelt offer to the utmost of his
influence.
The conferees of the Senate and House
have not as yet discussed the army bill
or the Harding amendment at any of
their meetings. This and the matter of
the age limits, are the two most impor-
tant matters at issue between the two
branches OF Congress. 1t is believed
that 80 years will be the maximum age
decided upon as the limit for conscrip-
tion.
1t was thought the Harding amend
ment would be considered at the confer
ence yesterday. In some quarters it was
said that the amendment might be left
in the bill with little or no discussion.
An agreement on the bill was considered |
possible by last night, or in shorter order
than the settling of the appropriation |
bill
Brig. Gen. Il. H. Crowder, now judge |
advocate general of the army, will be- |
come provost general, with the rank of |
major general, to take charge of the |
work OF registration under the army bill. |
The war department plans to perfect its
machinery so that the registration Of
100000 men can be accomplished in Is
days.
In order that the most remote sections
may be ready on the day to be set by
the presidents proclamation when the
army bill has been passed, the census
bureau has sent registration cards to
and official heads of cities and
villages. Fifteen days will intervene be-
tween the proclamation and registration
lay. The work of enrolment will take
i've days and a month later the complet-
ID rolls will be returned to Washington.
