RED BLOOD AND COURAGE!
fRu 81. M. G. LucAsl

What drives the men right up to the
trenches in this war Is courage, and
it's red blood that puts the heart" in
the men. Did any one ever see a
puny. fhin-blooded man ever rush into
the fight with any chance Of winning
out? With rich, pure blood you can
face any hardship, reach any goal. But
you are handicapped in the race of
life without 1t. Every tissue, bone,
muscle, should take from the blood
certain materials and return to 1t Ger.
tain others. This process insures per-
feet health. When the poisons accumu-
late in the blood, perhaps the face
breaks out in pimpies, or boils appear
on the neck. and we feel languid, tired,
our vitality is at low ebb, and we
easily catch cold.
It's time to take an Alternative extract
and blood-purifier taken from Natures
forests. Such one is made up of
Golden Seal, Blood and Stone root,
Oregon Grape and Queens root ex-
traeted with giycerine and made into
sugar-coated tablets or liquid, and this
has been sold by druggists for the past
fifty years as DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
zeal Discovery. It's always efficacious
in the spring when the blood Is run
down and you need wholesome tonic.
Try this old-fashioned but reliable
remedy, without alcohol,
II you are occasionally troubled with
rheumatic pains or lumbago. pain in
the back. toes or muscles of the body.
this is due TO uric acid stored in the
system. The liver and kidneys do not
act properly For such person. adj
wise taking Anuric double strength
three times daily for week or two.
This Anuric throws out the uric acid
which accumulates, and il taken occa-
sionally will prevent or cure rheuma-
tism and govt. There is no difficulty
in obtaining Anuric at any drug store.

WHAT IT TAKES TO MOVE AN ARMY

Some idea of the adequacy of the equipment of the railroads of the United States for the movement of troops may be obtained from statement prepared by Lieutenant Colonel Chauncey B. Baker of the Quartemaster Corps United States army, and distributed to the railroads of the country by the special committee national defense of the American Railway association
 To move one field army of 800OO men, consisting of three infantry divisions, cavalry divsOn and br- gade technically known brigade of field army troops troops auxiliary to the infantry and cavalry divisions requires total of 629 cars made up into 366 trains with as many locomotives These 629 cars would be made up of 115 passenger 385 baggage, 1O55 box 1899 stock and 775 flat cars.
 This quantity of equipment represents ' of per cent of the locomotives owned by American railroads Az per cent of their passenger cars and per cent of their freight equipment.

NO LET UP IN MINING

The arrival Sunday of hydraulic mining machinery, the first to be landed here in several years for in the Moose pass district discounts the claim of some that min eral activities will stop because of the increased cost of supplies.
 From the Willow creek district comes the word that all the producing properties preparing to open for the season or have opened while air compressorS and drills are being placed other claims for testing purposes and mills are en route for installation ground already tested
 Instead of curtaling mining it is evident that this is to be record breaking year in districts contiguous to the government railroad

If whale steaks to be the time substitute for the more e 2ensve meats the whalers will have to get busy. Two markets sold out the total whale supply by early after noon and other markets unsupped with the ceaceous mammal, were bombarded with demands. Whale meat sold at 10 cents pound with fat bone grste and being just nutritious beef and of most paatable flavor 1t promises to remain popular staple food.
 The American Pacific Whaling company, operating out of Grays harbor, supplied the meat.

WHAT CONSTITUTES TREASON

X correspondent wants to know whcth- cr it is treason ''to talk against the United States" He says that in am argument it was claimed that treason consisted of making war against this country. He should read the constitution and learn at first hand what treason is, but since he has not done so we gladly give him the inform ltion.
 Section Three of Article Three of the constitution says, "Trcason against the United States shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid comfort " The language seems plain enough
 Every one understands what "levying war" means. It is making war, or engag- ing in war. or taking such actions as is a part of war, such as preparations for war.
 "Adhcring to the enemy denotes a mental attitude. One adheres to the church bv believing in the church and idcn- Itifvmg himself with the church member ship. If one bcicvs in Germany at this Illllt ny way or lluNlldlloll' anu booVNl'NN' with those who believe in Germany and takes part in contentious favoring Ger many, he is certainly guilty of treason to the United States, because he adheres to the enemy of the United States. Talking OF writing in favor of the enemy or saying that which encourages the enemy, certain |ly comes under the definition of treason l It is the giving aid and comfort to the en- cmy to defend it in controversy, for 1t tends to destroy faith in this country $ cause. and to strengthen faith in the en- cmy's cause.
 The penalty for treason is death. Every nation at war freely inhicts the penalty upon guilty persons, and we should do the same. There are number of traitors in this country who ought to be executed for treason, and we shall wccome the day when an example is made of them, and the ma tion thereby rid of its enemies within Cambridge (Ohio) Jeffersonian.

 To facilitate the prompt move mcnt Of grain and food products, as we'll as lumber and munitions, thc car service commission of tho ruil- roads war board has ordered the immediate distribution Of 2O,79O additional empty ears among the lines operating in tho South. the Middle West and Che Southwest
 This will make a total of lOG,O33 empty ears that have been ordered moved from one railroad Co another regardless of ownership, during the past two months in order Co mobil- izc in different sections of tho couu- try sufficient number of cars Co handle the abnormal government and commercial traffic that war con- ditions have produced
 or the latest ears ordered by the war board to bc distributed where they win be most needed, 7SOO arc to be placed in the grain-produciug country.
 To protect the vegetable and southern watermelon crops, more than 5000 ears have been sent Go roads operating in the Southwest.
 Meanwhile, hundreds of ears are being rushed daily to the lumber states Of the South to take care of thc tremendous movements of lum- bor to the army cantonments and shipbuilding yards.
 More than a thousand stock cars have also been sent into Texas to enable the cattle raiscrs there to get their herds into the western pas turo country.

 One of Che vice presidents of Che City National Bank in New York recently made an estimate placing the wealth of Che United States at S24O.OOO.OOO.OOO. which is moro than that of England, France and Germany combined.

 We arc not warranted in wasting money simply because we can get it but there is no room for anxiety over what thc war may cost us.

President Wilson's rejection of the peace proposals submitted by the pope in dicatcs one thing very clearly and that is that the head of the American nation real izcs that it is sheer waste of time and good intentions to attempt in any way to deal with or make treaties with Germany; that Germany is wholly and entirely without hat sense of honor that is necessary in keeping am obligation; that Germany will break a pledge, mo matter how sacredly given. the moment thc breaking of such plcdgc will rebound to her benefit It is now too late to deal with Germany until she cries aloud for peace and only then must the peace allowed her be such as the balance of the world dccrecs. There is mo use to submit anything to Germany on pa per. Since the rape of Belgium, Germany has utterly disrcgardcd everything in the way of national compacts and by such ut -cr disregard she has placed herself in a position where her word is no longer worth considering. Germany must have no say in the peace terms she will be forced at the caunous mouth to accept. The time for considering Germany is past and gone. Law and justice do not make compacts with mWdcrcrs.
