NAVY, ARMY AND NATION TO PAY

~ difference of opinion aoOut inter-

Dewey, without adding to the sum of
President McKinleX's worries
Dewey was always 4 great student of
history; he knew every naval campaign
that had been waged from the days Of
ancient Greece and Rome, had analysed
them and knew why defeat or victory
had come from certain movements and
this without doubt was one of the fac
tors that contributed to his own sue
cess in warfare.
One OF the finest estimates Of Adj
miral Dewey's character is contained in
"A tIabute rendered to him by his old
time shipmate, Admiral Sampson, who
was fighting the Spaniarus in the Carib-
bean while Dewey was lying in Manila
bay, resting on the laurels he had won
in the famous battle Of the First OF
May. Sampson said:

Nuxated Iron to Make New Age of

Endurance o Delicate,
Cent in VIC Weeks Time


NEW YORK. n. Y.-Since the remark
able discovery of organic iron, Nuxated
Iron or Fer NuXate," as the French call
it, has taken the country by storm. 1t
is conservatively estimated that over
three million persons annually are taking
it in this country alone. Most astoniSh-
ing results are reported from its use by
both physicians and laymen. So much
so that doctors predict that we shall
soon have a new age of far more beautI-
full rosy-cheeked women and vigorous
iron men.
DIR. King. a New York physician and
author, when interviewed on the subject,
said: There can be no vigorous iron
men without iron. Pallor means anaemia.
Anaemia means iron deficiency. The skin
of anaemiC men and women is pale.
The flesh flabby. The muscles lack tone;
the brain flags and the memory fails and
table, Respondent and melancholy. When
the iron goes from the blood of women,
the roses go from their cheeks.
I'm the most common foods OF Amer
lea, the starches, sugars, table syrups,
candies, polished rice, white bread, soda
crackers, biscuits, macaroni, spaghetti,
tapioca, sage, farina, degerminated corn
meal, no longer is iron to be found. Re-
fining processes nave removed the iron
of Mother Earth from these Empower
ished foods, and silly methods of home
cookery, by throwing down the waste
pipe the water in which our vegetables
arc cooked, are responsible for another
grave iron loss.
Therefore, if you wish to preserve
your youthful vim and vigor to ripe
old age, you must supply the iron def
cheney in your food by using some form
of organic iron, just as you would use
salt when your food has not enough
salt"
Dr. Sauer, who has studied abroad in
great European medical institutions,
said: "As 1 have said a hundred times
over organic iron is the greatest of all
strength builders. If people would only
throw away patent medicines and nau-
seous connections and take simple nux-
ated iron, / am convinced that the lives
of thousands of persons might be saved
who now die every year from pneumonia,
grippe, consumption, kidney, liver, heart
trouble, etc. The real and true cause
which started their disease was nothing
more nor less than a weakened condi-
tion brought on by lack of iron in the
blood.
Not long ago man came to me who
was nearly half century old and asked
me to give him a preliminary examina-
ton for life insurance. I was astonisned
to find him with the blood pressure of
boy of twenty and as full of vigor, vim
and vitality as a young man; in fact a
young man he really was, notwfthstand-
ing his age. The secret, he said, was
taking iron-Nuxated Iron had filled him
with renewed life. At 80 he was in bad
health; at as he was careworn and nearly
all in. Now, at so, after taking Nuxated
Iron, a miracle of vitality and his face
beaming with the buoyancy of youth.
Iron is absolutely necessary to enable
your blood to change food into living

Danish West Indies Are

WASHINGTON. Jan. 1.-THE Danish
West Indies passed today under the
sovereignty of the United States. Ne
gotiations continued for over half a
century came to a conclusion with the
exchange of Publications of the treaty
of cession by Secretary Lansing and
Danish Minister Brun.
Formal transfer, with the raising of
the American flag, will take place as
soon as the S25,000,000 purchase price
is paid over within the next 80 days.
The treaty provides that meanwhile
the Danish governor shall continue his
Jurisdiction and that a committee of
one Dane and one American shall be APP
pointed to arrange for further details.
The form of government is now in
the hands of congress, with some doubt
as to whether the islands will have a
civil government or be administered as
a naval base.

CARNIVOROUS AUSTRALIA.

New Haven Journal-Courier England
has the third highest average meat

lation of all countries in the world.
Australia ranks first, the United States
second. England's average consump-
ton per head, including men, women
and children. is in normal times 1876
pounds per year. OF the total meat sup
ply, 60 per cent is home grown and 40
per cent imported, so that the average
total of frozen meat brought into this
country every year is $4,000 tons.
How large a proportion this is of the
worlds supply is shown by the fact that
the total output of chilled and frozen
meat for the whole world is estimated
at 915,000 tons yearly.
OF the $4,000 tons of imported meat

ELECTIONS IN PRUSSIA.
Wealth COefficient of Political Privilege
Under 3-Class System.


Review OF Reviews: Finally to re-
duce the importance Of the popular vote
to the vanishing point, Prussia has
hitherto been equipped with the famous
three-class system. which makes wealth
the co-effcient of political privilege.
The system of Servius Tuulius, $500
years old, is revised and manipulated
for the benefit of the wealthy classes.
At the core of the three-class system
is the distinction in the electorate Of
three classes: the great landowners and
large financial and industrial fortune
holders; small business men and offic-
ials, and the proletariat. Prussia ac-
cepts the theory of the historian, Won
Gneist, that because Of heavier contri
buttons and higher intellectual capacity
the two upper classes must be endowed
with a more effective share of political
rights. In the tax list of each primary
district the taxpayers are enrolled ac-
cording to the amount of their direct
taxes, non-taxpayers being rated arbi-
trarily as paying three marks. The
list is then divided. beginning at the top,
into three sections. The first collect
lively pays the first third of the total
contribution, the second, the second
third. and the last class the remainder.
In the primary elections each class
chooses by absolute majority an equal
number of electors, or indirectly has
an equal share in the election of the
deputies. Let us say, for example, that
the district above is entitled to six
electors. Voting by classes, the nine
members of the two higher classes Sc
lect four of these, while the other two
electors represent the $50 voters of the
third class.
Such gross inequality would not be
exceptional in Prussia where the aver
age percentage of the electorate in each
group is per cent in class l, 16 per
cent in class II, and so per cent in
class III. In many localities injustice
is still more fragrant, as in the 1917
election districts where the first class
includes not more than two men; or in
Berlin where seven-tenths of / per cent
of the electors choose four of Berlins
precious twelve representatives,. To
offer universal suffrage on these terms
is a gratuitous affront
The three-class system is the mega.
ton of all democratic government. In
most districts the first and second class
es are practically inaccessible. At Es-
sen the male head of the Krupps is the
only man in class | in his voting pre-
cinct, and Rothschild's position in
Frankfort was similar. Sometimes the
injustice works the other way. Chan
cellor Won Hohenlohe was one of the
heaviest taxpayers in Prussia; but, as
his precinct was the financial quarter
in Berlin, his ballot was engulfed with
several hundred others. while elsewhere
in the city one of his clerks voted with
the select few. In this same district,
the famous 2Sth, there is only one
elector in the first class, and two in the
second. Thus three men indirectly elect
one of the citys twelve deputies.
