lea may suffer or lose Compares with
the possibility Of the suffering and

their business, yield incomes, suffer
cold, hunger and all eonceivable hard

anything that We can not do to equal.

crown their work with victory. We
believe the American people will be
equal To the test Of their patriotism
and courage. The spirit with which
the people Us a whole have accepted
the burden laid upon them offers
gratifying proof to this effect.

WHILE mistakes have been made,
no doubt, in the conduct OF the tre-

no opportune time for captious aud
partisan criticism for any debate X
cept that designed to forward victory
necessary to the salvation and free

THE Associated Press gives us this
interesting bit of news from Birming-
ham, Alabama, under date of January
"a:
An advertisement of the United
States Brewers Association discussing
temperance, published recently by the
Montgomery Advertiser and the
Montgomery Times, we're held not in
violation of the state antiliquor ad-
vertising law by the State Supreme
Court to-day in disposing Of iniunc-
ton proceedings brought by Attorney
General Martin against the papers.
Similar cases are pending against the
birmingham News and Birmingham

That the right to discuss any public

~prehensible, and the denial of tina.

their co%nsciencious convictions. But

Tobacco Habit
Easily Overcome

A New Yorker, of wide experience,
has written a book telling how the
tobacco or snuff habit may be easily
and quickly banished with delightful
benefit. The author. Edward J. Woods,
A. 100, Station f, New York City, will
mail his book free on request.
The health improves wonderfully af-
ter tobacco craving is conquered. Calm
ness, tranquil sleep, clear eyes, normal
appetite, good digestion, manly vigor,
strong memory and general gain in
efficiency are among the many benefits
reported. Get rid Of that nervous, irri-
table feeling; no more need Of pipe,
cigar, cigaret, snuff or chewing to-
bacco to pacify morbid desire.

Tama, March 12.-Hon. +. T.. Shor

nation papers in his campaign for the
senate from the Tama Benton district
Mr.. Shortess has served two terms NJ
Tama county's representative in the
legislature and was Il prominent cantii-
date for speaker in the last session
The members realized before the ses-
sion was very old. their mistake in not
electing Mr.. Shortess so that the bust
ness could have been attended to with
more reasonable dispatch and without
the bitter partisanship that developed
under Speaker Pitt.
1t is thought that there viii be no
opposition to Mr.. Shortess in the pri-
maries but if Senator White accepts
the democratic nomination there will
be a pretty race at the polls next Nov
ember. Mr.. Shortess lived for many
years in Ninton and has host OF
friends over there who will stay by him
and it is safe to predict that his usual
large majority will be polled' in Tama
county.
Since Mr.. Shortess first entered tho
political arena four years ago he has
been active at all times for the inter-
ests of his constituents and has devel-
oped into splendid public speaker
and is always welcomed on any plat
form where he is known.
