THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.

There is new and lively spirit of aggres-
siveness in the attitude of congress toward the
war and in particular toward our part in 1T.
From April on to the close of the last session
there was individual and group opposition
voiced; there was querulous note In public
discussion: but these were hindrances rather
than helps because there was little intelligent
effort at constructive helpfulness. The gov
eminent departments had their way and all op-
position was hailed to the bar of public opinion
as hostile to public welfare; there was little if
anv. consideration of the fact that some of the
so-called opposition was really legitimate de-
sire to fulfill the proper functions of the legis-
lators who voiced it. Honest doubters were
hushed through fear lest they be classed with
j "a Toilette Gronna and their kind
But now such fear is gone and the reason is
not far to seek. The members of congress have
been in touch with the people whom they repre-
sent They have learned the trend Of public
thought and Of national anxieties. They have
had opportunity to get firstrhhand information
and to give it to their constituents. The evi-
dent determination of congress to know what IS
being done and left undone; to oil government
machinery replace defective parts and secure
results proportionate to the cost to the people,
means that the people are speaking through
their representatives The nation is not yet in
the war but is getting into it, and as it puts it
self back of and under the war preparation the
strength of the United States for the first time
is modified.

directions is possible only through
complete reorganization of our war
machinery. Throw out the 1ncom
petents, bring the superior war coun-
Gil into immediate being. and co-ordl-
nate our efforts in real utilization
of every power and resource.
But unless or until the present
fuel saving order is amended or an
nulled, obey ito the letter.

ST. Louis Times: If treason con-
sists in rendering aid and comfort 10
the enemy, DIR. Garfield the so
called fuel administrator, should be
hailed Immediately before the bar OF
public opinion.
Nothing done by individual or
group in our entire land has tended
to hearten Germany as yesterdays
crowning act of incompetency, fol-
lowing the string of loose-Jointed
conservation" performances leading
up to it.
Imagine the feelings of the German
junkers upon learning that, after
few months of war, and mere pas
sive, preparatory war at that, THIS
greatest of coal countries is COM
PEELED to shut down most of her in
dustries, of whatever character, be-
cause of a shortage of fuel!
The fact is that Garfield is bet
ter tennis player than administrator
He has blundered inexcusably. Armed
with the greatest power ever given
| to a man, with the greatest railroad
system in the world at his back, he
takes the easiest way. He has shut
down everything, willy nllly. until
spring weather will make his work
{ Sfifisttt-E Has ldhSh q itti '1SP "
ward proving that public control OF
1 the railroads is failure.
This, in nutshell, is what the
| insane order means. Garfield goes
! further, and fixes certain limits on
| the publication of eastern news
papers on certain days. A mere
suspicion of brains would tell him
that if newspaper is to be printed
at all on given day, no more fuel
will be required to print several ed1
lions than if all the editions are put
! into one The public would merely
suffer in getting limited news re
| ports.
/ If we are to shut down all of our
largest industries after six months OF
war, what, in the name of heaven
will be our doom after two years Of
! war?
Five days lost now on ship and air
plane building is week contributed
to our enemy!
Germany, France and England
with only hint of our coal supply
have managed to keep their factorie:
moving. We feel that the nation:
prayer just now should be an appea
against the nations fools and sup
plication that the, president may bt
saved from the blunderers who arr
making his hard task much harder

THE MEN IN
CLASS A. /

A sound, healthy man is never a
back number. A man can be as Wig
orous and able at seventy as at TWEEN
ty. Condition, not years, puts you in
the discard. A system weakened by
overwork and careless living brings
old age prematurely. The bodily
functions are impaired and unpleas-
ant symptoms appear. The weak
spot is generally the kidneys. Keep
them clean and in proper working
condition and you will generally find
yourself in Glass AL. Take GOLD
MEDAL Harlem Oil Capsules peri
odically and your system will always
be in working order. Your spirits
will be enlivened, your muscles sup
pie, your mind active, and your body
capable of hard work
Don't wait until you have been re-
jected. Commence to be a frst-class
man now. Go to your druggist at
once. Get trial box of GOLD MED
AL HARLEM Oil Capsules. They are
made of the pure, original, imported
grandfather used. Two capsules each
day will keep you toned up and feel
ing fine. Money refunded if they do
not help you. Remember to ask for
the imported GOLD MEDAL Brand.
