A Duty which the senate Clearly

A Duty which the Senate Clearly
Owes to the American Press.
From the New York Herald
Unable to prevent an investisa ton
into the circumstances surrounding
the purchase of the Washington
Times, some persons keenly interest
ed in what sometimes Is referred to
as 1.-The bought press' Of this country
are, according TO gossip current in
Washington, doing all they can to
limit the scope Of the proposed inves-
tigation to the single newspaper i'm
mediately concerned. In the gossip
at the National Capital there 10 inti-
nation that assistance for this limit
ing program has been obtained from
members of the Presidents Cabinet
II that is true, It is something call
ing for prompt action by President
Wilson. II any outside influences
are at work to limit its inyesti-
CATION the Senate should lose no time
In running them down and in TAX
ing such action as will thwart their
efforts.
1t is reported that the same interests
which appear in the revelations con-
corning the Washington Times have
been active In other directions. The
trail Of suspicion runs TO Pittsburgh,
Toledo. Detroit, and to other cities.
including Newark, n. J. The vast
majority OF the newspapers Of this
land are unbought and unpurchas-
able. Justice to them demands that
the committee OF the Senate to which
has been intrusted investigation Of
the case OF the Washington Times be
given fullest authority to follow the
trail Of suspicion wherever L may
lead. This applies not only to the
possible interest of brewers in other
newspapers but also. and more par
ucularly. TO any relationship there
may now be, or there may have been,
between newspapers and the repre-
sentatives Of kaiserism in this coun-
try.
This is due TO the American press
and to the American people. The in
vestigation should be most thorough.
and II is well for the investigators TO
always bear in mind the fact that tnr
leopard never yet as been able to
change his spots!

How TO Buy Ncwspapcrs.

From the Springfield Republican.
Newspaper ownership should not be
masked. The recent German govern
ment control of the New York
Mail and now the exposure Of the
brewery interest in the Washington
Times are regrettable incidents cal
culated to impair public confidence
in the press. Contrasted with these
cases the immediate public avowal
that a member of the firm OF ]. z.

The Brisbane Idol Fails.

From the Denver Rocky Mountain News
But where does Mr.. Hearst come in
on this? After Mr.. Brisbane bought
the Washington paper he appeared as
the editor Of the Chicago consolidated
paper which Mr.. Hearst owns; and
Mr. Brisbane is contributing his col
umn to all the Hearst papers. German
breweries furnished the fund for the
Washington purchase and wherever
there is a German there is Hearst
connection. The trail OF the serpent
is sinuous and it takes patience to
trace. but all in good time. Murder

WEAK KIDNEYS MEAN
A WEAK BODY

When you're fifty, your body begins to
creak little at the hinges. Motion is
more slow and deliberate. "Not SO young
as 1 used to be" is frequent and unwel-
come thought. Certain bodily functions
upon which good health and good spirits
SO much depend, are impaired. The weak
spot is generally the bladder. Unpleasant
symptoms show, themselves. Painful and
annoying complications in other organs
arise. This is particularly true with ell
derby people. If you only know how, this
trouble can be obviated.
For over 200 years GOLD MEDAL
HARLEM Oil has been relieving the in
