duces kidney trouble in some form or
other, says a well-Hnown authority, be-

sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts Of
distress, particularly backache and mis-
cry in the kidney region; rheumatic twin

stipatiou, torpid liver, sleeplessness,
bladder and urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or kid
neys aren't acting right, or if bladder
bothers you, get about four ounces Of
Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take a tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous

and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations to
flush clogged kidneys and Stimulate them

The Huns are trying to bring
German frightfulness to our very
shores. Gas from oil discharged on
the water by the German submarine
operating off the Middle Atlantic
coast overcame six men in the coast
guard station and lighthouse on
Smiths Island, N. c., Saturday ev-
ening. If the gas attack was DELHI
crate, as most officials believe, 1t
constituted a new and ingeniousu
form of "frightfulness" and, so far
as has. been reported, was the first
direct effort of the German raiders
to harm persons or property on the
American shores.

Supreme Court by Mr.. Dominick, as
assistant attorney general, the prin-
ciples of which he embodied in his
speech against the amendment Cor

of a banks capital from taxation as
is invested in Liberty Bonds.
The United States government does
not tax State bonds. 1t does not tax
the salaries of State officers even of
the smallest subdivision. Then in

of world freedom; in justice to our
ons and to our brothers who are bar

race from a damnablei tyranny that

Mr.. McAdoo plainly stated that he
asked for the passage of this amend

of the patriotic services of the banks
in floating the several liberty loans.
And in the fact Of this appeal from
a man whose unselfsh devotion to the

INTERNATIONAL IDEATIONS.

The Russian situation is begin
ming to look much brighter for the
allies. Premier Lenine and Leon
Trotzky, the men who have been in
power sicne the overthrow of the
Kerensky cabinet last November and
the ones who negotiated the Brest-
Litovsk peace, have fled to Kron-
stadt, the naval base near Petro-
grad and a place from which they
can easily flee into Germany. The
weakness of the Bolshevik govern
ment can also be inferred from the
fact that DR.. Helferich, the German
ambassador to Russia, has informed
the Soviet government that he will
move the embassy from Moscow to
Pskov, because he fears for the per-
sonal safety Of his staff. Referring
to the shifting Of the Grman diplo-
matte base at Russia the Vossische
Zeitung of Berlin says: "The remov-
al of the German embassy from
Moscow to Pskov sheds a lurid light
on the seriousness of the political
situation on our EASTERN front. Am
bassador Helferich left before the
embassy staff because he feard for
his life"
The Austrians, as we'll as the
Germans, are now beginning to real
ize how formidable is the American

Franklin D. Roosevelt is now in

DOMINICK'S RECORD

Shows by Congressional Record
Where Congressman From This
District Has Voted Against

ADMINS gEGtiOn.
political ADVERTISEMENT
The address of Hon. Wyatt Aiken,
candidate for congress, at the sena-:
torial campaign meeting in Green
wood yesterday WAS delivered too
late for an extended account in yes
terday's issue of the Journal. Mr..
Aiken spoke abo tut Is minutes and
confined his remarks entirely to the
public record of Congressman Domi-
nick.
He showed By the Congressional
Record that ME-. Dominick opposed
the following measures favored by
the administration:
Against the iresolution declaring
that a state of war exists between
This country and Germany.
Against the draft act.
Against national prohibition.
Against the espionage, or spy act
Agains4 the act non-eXempting
divinity students from compulsory
military service;
Against the soldier (volunteer)
vote to give the States credit for vol,
unteers.
Against he censor bill.
Against the Presidents determine
ton NOT to send Roosevelt to
France.
Against the daylight saving bill.
Against the Crompton resolution of
inquiry as to the manufacture of in
toxicating liquors.
Against his party on the vote to
purge from the Record the speech
of Hoflin, of Alabama, in which he
blistered Mason and Britton, Repub-

licans, of Illinois, who were against
the administration.
Mr.. Aiken said that Mr.. Dominick
did not vote on the resolution max
ing Guam and the Hawaiian Islands
dry and that he was also against the
administration on the matter of tax
ing the third isue of bonds.
On the last proposition Mr.. Aiken
spoke as follows:
Mr.. Dominick has claimed credit
for having Congress reverse itself on
the measure proposing to exempt
banks from state take to the extent
of the investment OF their capital
stock in liberty bonds. =
I am perfectly willing to concede
him all credit due, but it should be
borne in mind that congress did not
reverse itself on this issue until aft
er that Democratic House Leader,
Mr.. Kitchin, had reversed himself.
Now, as to the issue itself a few
side lights will show that Mr.. Domi-
hicks attitude On this, as on every
other question touching the vigorous
prosecution of the war, was hostile to
the administration.
I need not remind you with what
patriotism the people of this country
have responded to the first, second
and third Liberty Loans Nor need I
remind you that in every instance a
major portion of these bonds have
been foated directly or indirectly
through the banks. If an individual
subscribed, in most cases he paid
down ten or twenty per cent, and the
banks carried the balance. 1t is an
,incontrovertable fact that not one
of these loans GOULD have been loated
but for the patriotic aid of the banks
and with all the support they could
possibly give, the bonds time and
again have dropped below par. If the
arder of the banks is chilled then to
that extent is the floating of the
bonds chilled? Whatever else may be
said of bankers, by those who would
make capital oft of abusing them,
nobody will say of them as a class
that they art fools. Then nobody
could honestly shy that they would
invest their capital in bonds in a
market that is glutted, at a low fixed
rate purely as am investment. On
the contrary every dollar they in
vest in bonds is at "a sacrifice, and
nobfy have they made and will they
continue to make the sacrifice. There
is not the slightest danger that they
will retain fhe investment longer
than a return to healthy and normal
conditions will enable them to dis
pose of the bonds without injury to
the government.
Government bonds we've issued be-
fore this war, and only in one in
stance, in this~state, a trust company
doing an inactive business, was there
