A Fight. for Life

1t has been fight or die for many of us
in the past and the lucky people are
those who have suffered, but who are
now we'll because they needed natures
warning signal in time to correct their
trouble with that wonderful new dis
covery of DIR. Pierce's, called wAn-u-ric.n
You should promptly heed these warn
ings, some of which are dizzy spells,
backache, irregularity of the urine or the
painful twinges of rheumatism, sciatica
or Iumbago. To delay may make possible
the dangerous forms of kidney disease,
such as Bright's disease, diabetes OF
stone in the bladder.
To overcome these distressing condi-
tions take plenty of exercise in the
open air, avoid heavy meat diet, drink
freely of water and at each meal, take
Doctor Piercess Anuric Tablets .(double
strength). You will. in a short time, find
that you are one of the firm indorsers of
Anuric, as are thousands of neighbors.

PRUSSIA CONVICTED
Autocracy Admitted In Old Missouri
Court Record.

Henry A. Forster, the we'll known
constitutional lawyer of New York
City. believes that he has definitely
disposed of the question of whether or
not Prussia is an autocracy. He gives
the following evidence on his findings
in letter to the National Security
League:
American law reports contain evil
dence that as late as 1856 (six years
after the proclamation of it's constitu-
ion in 1S50) Prussia frankly recog-
nized that it was an autocracy or alb.
solute monarchy.
in King of Prussia v. Kuepper's
Admir-, % Missouri, 551. tie King OF
Prussia prevailed during the year 1856
against the administrator of one of his
former officials on a petition which al
legged:
The plaintiff states mat he is alb.
solute monarch of the kingdom of Prus-
STA, and as king thereof is the sole
government of that country; that he
is unrestrained by any constitution or
law, AMI that his will, expressed in
due form, is the only law of that coun-
try and is the only legal power there
known to exist as law"

A victory for Germany-that is, a

had defeated the world, including what
the world believes to be the better

would be the walk. The United States
would be merely part of the walk, and
Prussia would walk upon it.

would parade at the goose-step. At it's

American President, but a German
Kaiser.
The ages of steam and electricity
have made the world smaller place.
1t has grown so small, in fact, that

is to be is the issue of this war. II
Germany wins, the government of the

Firms Planning
Separation from
Rule of Russia
Action of Swedish Party
at Helsingfors Causes
Anxiety in Petrograd

Helsingfors. Finland. May 81 via
Pctrograd and London. May 22).-A
congress Of the Swedish political party,
representing q majority OF Finland's
wealthiest and most influential classes,
yesterday passed resolution favorng
complete separation OF the grand
duchy Of Finland from Russia. The
resolution reads:
"The Finnish people has progressed
so far in cultural and political de-
velopment that Finland is entitled TO
make demand to take her place as
an Independent state among the num-
Der of sovereign nations"
This radical resolution is only the
latest development of the separatist
agitation which started after the revo-
luton and which is occasioning anxiety
in Petrograd and bringing out sharp
comment in the Russian press.
Denies Suzerainty Of Russia
The agitation began when Finland's
new Premier. NJ. Tokoi. Social Demo
crat, in speech IN Parliament used
an expression implying that Russia had
ceased to be a suzerain power and had
become a friendly neighbor and pos
Sible ally. The temporary government
in Petrograd, IN restoring the Finnish
constitution on March 20, claimed that
the new Russian government had sue
ceeded TO all the rights OF former En-
peror Nicholas as grand duke; but the
Helsingfors Parliament, during the de-
bate on the food bill last week, de-
clarcd X was open TO question whether
the claim of the temporary govern
ment was correct and whether, there
fore, that government had inherited
the former Emperor's rights to sane
tion Finnish parliamentary acts or to
refuse its sanction to them.
In addition the Finnish government
has suggested TO Russia the immediate
passage of measures increasing Fln-
lands present measure OF lndepen-
dence. but the temporary government
holds that this action must await the
meeting of the Constituent Assembl ~ to
draw UP a constitution for the whole
empire.
Claims Finnish independence
Prominent among the advocates Of
complete Finnish independence is PRO
lessor Erich, who declares that Fin
land attained absolute independence by
the fact OF the revolution when the
revolution occurred, adding that Fin
lands future relations with Russia
would depend exclusively upon the
will of the Finnish people and could
be regulated only by voluntary Finno,,
Russian treaties of an international
character.
Although some members of the Swed-
ish parties and of the Socialist group
oppose the independence claims as pre-
mature and as likely to cause irrita-
ton in Russia, the only party solidly
opposing the independence programme
I is the old Finnish Party. which always
has been persistently Russophile.

Won Hindenburg
Backs German
Conquest Plans

Copenhagen, May 22.-The pan-Ger-
manists have called Field Marshal Won
Hindenburg to their aid in the cam
paign for peace programme GORE
spending to Germany's sacrifices and
have received assurance from him OF
his sympathy with their aims. Il
share your hopes for the fulfilment OF
your wishes for the future Of the
Fatherland." Won Hindenburg Is SAID
to have replied to their greeting.
The field marshal's reply indicates
that Chancellor Won Bethmann- Holl-
veg and German military leaders are
not in full accord regarding war aims.
Notwithstanding the Chancellor's state
ment TO that effect in the Reichstag.
The Chancellor's statement is fatty
challenged by Director zimmerman Of
the Berlin "Lokal Anzeiger." who de-
MES that Won Bethmann-H ollweg has
any right to claim the war generals
as the champions of his views on the
political and economic aims of the
war Herr Zimmerman adds that the
unity of views, according to his
knowledge, applies only TO military and
strategic aims. on which the Chancel-
lor had accepted the views of linden
burg and Ludendorff, the morally re-
sponsible generals.
Herr Zimmerman goes even fur
Their in his criticism of the Chancel-
lor. questioning the stability of the
Bethmann bloc in the Reichstag and
denying that the vote on the peace in
terpellation can be interpreted as a
vote of confidence.
The "Lokal Anzeiger," since it passed
into the hands of a syndicate headed
by captains of industry of the Rhine
district and former minister whom
Won Bethmann- Hollweg threw over
board. has ceased TO be subservient
government organ. and is now in more
or less consistent opposition to the
