GOVERNOR WILL
WIN, FORECASTS
REPRESENTATIVE

J. Stanley Brown, who, as nominee
for the legislature, attnded the Re-
publican state convention in Sacra-
mento last week, returned home today
briging with him the optimistic mes
sage that the entire Republican state
ticket would be elected to office
"hands down"
at looks like Septhens in every sec
ton of the state I visited" said Mr..
Brown. 81 do not believe the Demo-
Icratic candidate, if there is one, can
make dent in the governors strength.
Rolph or Heney certainly cannot beat
him and any man named by petition on
the instruction of the state commit
tee would not be sufficiently represen-
tative to carry an abnormal vote over
the ordinary party strength.
published reports of a factional
fight in the Republican convention be-
tween supporters of Senator Hiram
Johnson ad Governor Stephens were
incorrect and erroneous. So far as l
could observe, there was absolutely no
soreness between these leaders or
their followers. In fact. the only real
fight was on the prohibition platform,
and we won it easily"
Mr.. Brown, who has been in politics
for many years and has attended sew
eral state conventions, says he was
much impressed with the operation OF
the new primary law, which makes the
nminees for state offices from COVER
nor down delegates to the convention.

IMPERIAL FIGHTS
EXCLUSION FROM
TRAIN SCHEDULE

The City of Imperial has lodged an
official protest with Harry n. Dyke
and L. J. Thomas of the Liberty Loan
committee against the exclusion of
that town from the itinerary of the
war exhibit train, an official govern
ment exposition, which will visit the
Valley on October 1.
The train, which carries an exhibit
of war relics composed of arms, am
munition and captured supplies, is
scheduled to stop for few hours each
at Ell Centre, Calexico and Brawley.
To see the exhibit Imperial people
would be compelled to make the trip
to either this city or Brawley.
Imperial residents insist that the
train shall be stopped at their town.
They have been promised the support
of some members of the committee in
obtaining revision of the train sehed'
ule.

PATRIOT DISPLAYS
FOR LIBERTY FAIR

That the war spirit may be brought
to the half million or more people who
visit the California Liberty Fair, a
pyrotechnic display in which $4,000
worth of fireworks will be used, is to
be one of the chef features of the
California Liberty Fair to be held at
Exposition Park, Los Angeles, from
IOctober II to 26. Everything that
will be done will be done under the
supervision Of the United States gov
lernment and no powder will be wasted
that might be used on the western
front.
The Bureau of Mines of the Unit
ed States government has suggested
that all fireworks displayed this year
should be of patriotic nature, and,
with this idea in view, the fireworks
to be given during the California Lib
erty Fair will be an inspiration in pa
trotism. W. E. Priestley, superinten-
dent of fireworks and explosives at

the Panama-Pacific International EN-
position will be in charge Of the dis
play. The big feature each evening
will be a set piece representing the
bombardment of Zeebrugge mole,
which will be 800 fet in length and
will portray to the minds of the visi-
tors the attack Of the British naval
vessels on the German Notifications
on the Belgian coast. No time or eX-
pense will be spared to make the fire
works display one of the big features
of the California Liberty Fair.
Fast horses from all over this state,
and trotters, PAGERS and runners even
from the Atlantic seaboard, are being
arranged to Exposition Park for horse
races during the opening week of the
fair. Many of our we'll known driv-
ers with their stables will be on hand
to compete for the $4,000 worth of
prizes that have been hung up fer
these harness horse events. The ra-
cling feature Of this California Liberty
Fair is to be one of the big attrac-
tions.

Are women as yet really needed IN
all our industries? One of our experts
in industrial management believes
that before the war ends women
will be needed by the hundred
thousands, and we ought now to be
planning for their training and safe
guarding. Now is the time to pre-
pare and develop plans and policies.
Every woman should make herself
ct for wars call at home or abroad.
Health and strength are within
the reach Of every woman, and there
is no better time than aow to try an
herbal tonic, which has had a half
century Of practical demonstration
and successful results in most of the
delicate arrangements and weak
nesses of women. It is the ''Prescrip-
ton" of Dr.. Pierce, used by him in
active practice many years, and
now sold by almost every druggist
in tablet or liquid form.

something must be wrong with the
head or back, a woman naturally
says, but all the time the real trouble
very often centers in the organs. In
nine cases out Of ten the seat of the
difficulty is here, and a woman
should take rational treatment for its
cure. The disorder should be treated
steadily and Systematically with
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription,
and the hygienic advice followed
which DR.. Pierce gives free.
For diseases from which women
suffer, "Favorite Prescription" is 4
powerful restorative. During the
last fifty years it has banished from
the lives of tens of thousands Of
women the pain, worry, misery and
distress caused by these diseases.
