A Doctors Prescription Free
From Alcohol and Dangerous
Drugs--6O Years in Use.

The getting-well stage of grip is the most
dangerous of all because the body, weakened
by the grip is wide open to attacks of other
lurking disease germs.
That is why all the organs of the body must
be kept in their best working order, not only
20 drive out the poison left by the grip germ,
but that the patient shall regain strength as
as possible to avoid further attacks re-
sulting from the poisons in the system.
AS means toward good health after the
grip Father Johns Medicine builds up the body
because it is all pure wholesome nourishment
and free from opium morphine, chloroform or
other poisonous drugs or alcohol. Father
Johns Medicine has had sixty years success
for colds and throat troubles, coughs and sore
throats, and as tonic and body builder.

THE CANDIDACY OF MISS JEANETTE RANKIN
O UNITED STATES SENATE
BY JOHN A. GOODRICH.

BY JOHN A. GOODRICH.
Every consideration of national safety and the nation
al welfare demands that we support only those for public
office, and especially those who ask for a commission to
sit six years in the United States Senate during the gray
est of national exigencies, who have the right kind of
heart and stomach for this conflict and who have shown
by their past acts, rather than their present words that
they have the disposition and back bone to see things
through to the right kind of a finish. When the Germans
begin to be hard pressed there will be all kinds Of specious
peace pleas in the air in a desperate effort to make peace
on a basis that will rob the allies of provisions for future
world safety. When that time comes we do not want any
man or woman occupying a seat in the United States Sen
ate who has not had in the past the back bone to stand up
and vote.
The press reports have never been denied that long
after the sinking of the Lusitania, and many other non
combatant vessels containing American men, women and
children, when Germany was threatening to renew these
crimes, when Germany had been trying to set Mexico and
Japan's war dogs loose on us; when their spies and propa-
gandists had been VIGOROUSLY abroad in the land poisoning
public sentiment and destroying life and property in this
country; in fact long after Germany had been making war
upon this nation; when it was not a question of commence
ing war on Germany, but when it was solely a question of
defending ourselves in the war she was already waging
against us, then it was that Jeanette Rankin stood up in
her seat as a Representative in Congress of the United
States, from the patriotic State of Montana, and simpered:
Il want to stand by my country, but I can not vote for
wal" and did not vote at all. The trust reposed in a Sena-
tor of the United States is too great to be reposed in
Jeanette Rankin.

CASUALTIES.

The casualty lists are coming in
Considered as a whole, and in pro-
portion to the victory, they are not
bad. But considering individually,
each name set down there brings in
to some American home a portion OF
the great world agony.
Parents, thinking backward from
the grief of today, say to each other,
"Only yesterday, it seems, we were
buying playthings for his baby
hands,"
And rebellious hearts question God
himself, "Was there no better use
for those hands, grown big and
strong? Why? Why?"
A new true ~atrocity story tells why
he had to go overseas to fight, to die.
In the first month after the Ger
mans took possession Of northern
France, a group Of little children
were playing in the street. The Hun
fiends threw some bundles wrapped
like toys among them. And the chill
dren scrambled for them. The "play-
things" were bombs which exploded
as the children, laughing, snatched
at them. Some of the "les petites"
were killed. And those that lived will
never play with toys again for they
have lost their hands! Ut is a COM
fort to know that many of these
children are now supported by Amer
lean funds.)
Fiends who can contrive such a
joke can never be made over. They
must be wiped from the face Of the
earth.
The boys numbered on the casualty
list have done their part to stamp them
out. Their short soldier-lives have
Counted" in the noblest cause mar
ever fought for.
Mourn for them? Weep for them
We can not help it. But though we
who abide safely at home and worl
for a thousand years, we canno'
measure up to the men who die K
free the world from the stain of HNl
kulture.
unto each mar his handiwork, mt
each his crown,
The just fate gives;
Whose takes the worlds life on hir
and his own lays down,
He, dying so, lives"
Helena Independent.

DEATH BLOW TO l. w. w.

The best evidence of the over
whelming character of the testimony
against the convicted /. w. WIS at
Chicago is found in the fact that be-
fore the verdict was returned, the
chief attorney for the criminals, as
well as "Big Bill" Haywood, said the
charge of Judge Lands was eminent
ly fair and they "did not believe the
jury could convict under it." The
jury lost no time in bringing in a
verdict of guilty, proving that the evil
dence must have placed the guilt Of
the accused beyond the shadow of a
doubt.
From what is known Of Judge Lam
dis the punishment he will mete out
will fit the crime. Fair and judicial
during a trial, he is stern and impla-
cable when guilt is fixed and believes
in absolute penalty for the protection
Of society and enforcement of law.
That this wholesale conviction will
strike a decisive blow at this Infamous,
lawless and destructive organization
is the hope of every loyal citizen and
good American. In time of peace, the
activities of the l. w. WIS and their
code of criminal sabotage created feel
ings of dread and horror; continued
when the nation is at var they inspire
d%etestation and renewed resolve to
.xterminate the band as a poisonous
pest, an enemy within our gates more
dangerous in proportion than the foe
without.-St. Paul Dispatch.
The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1918-08-23

Every red-blooded American citi-
zen in Montana should make it a
point to go to the polls next Tuesday
and vote for the nomination of can
didates whose loyalty is unquestioned.
This is not the time to put into pub
lie office men or women who do not
boast that they place America first,
over and above all things. Russia is
today undergoing her trial of social
ism and anarchism and those who
prefer it should be sem to join their
comrades of the red flag in the land
which has been sunk to the lowest
depth of degradation and misery by
the substitution of the gospel of poll
tical polygamy for that of whole
hearted national fidelity. Against
men who would, as Republican Chair
man Hays has said, snake of the
sacrifice of our soldiers a sacrilege"
the people would put up the bars at
the polls in November. The republic
that is worth fighting to defend from
enemies abroad, is worth fighting to
preserve from sacrifice at home by
the type of politician which has made
a mockery Of democracy in the be-
trayed republic Of Russia; internation-
alists who, promising, and doubtless
expecting, to inaugurate a millennium,
have created q Millennium.

INSULTING THE INTELLIGENCE
OF THE FARMERS.

The Valley County News in it's issue
of August 20, insults the intelligence
of the farmers when it tells them not
to argue politics. This is strictly in
keeping with Townleyism. 1t as
sumes that the farmers do not know
why they should vote for certain can
didates, but that they must be told
how to vote, and have nc right to
make their own selections. MI. Far
mer, the right to vote as you choose
is a sacred one, as is also the right
of free speech to express your reasons
for voting for any certain candidate.
When the "News" attempts to de-
prive you of that right; it shows that
it is owned, body and soul, by the
clique of politicians who have made
the word "Townleyism" the symbol
of the ~rottenest political autocracy
that ever menaced free government.
Townley's agent, MI. Shelley, knew
what he was doing when he slapped
that seven thousand dollar mortgage
on the "News." And Rhodes knows
what he is doing when he is "sluff-
ing" his stock in the "News" off to
the farmers at so much per.
Rhodes aspires to be a pocket edl-
ton of Townley, and he wants you,
Mr.. Farmer, to vote as he tells you
to, to keep your mouth shut about it,
and to buy. stock in his paying CD
paper.

GLASGOW MENTIONED
IN WEEKLY NEWS LETTER

The following article concerning
farm bureaus in Montana appeared
on the front page of the weekly
News Letter." published by the U.
S. Department of Agriculture at
Washington, D. c.

insuring interest and cooperation of
farmers in the great work of food
production so necessary to the sue
cess of our armies"

ties who had organized for war farm
ing.

following telegram to the secretary
of agriculture:
