Washington Senator Declares candi.
dacy for Republican Nomination.
ashington.-Senator Miles Poin-
dexter of Washington, in a statement
on October 70, to the people of the
United States, announced his candidacy
for the Republican nomination for
president, and presented platform of
policies and principles which he will
advocate in his campaign.
The Washington senator in his state
ment of policy denounces threats of
labor leaders to tie up the railroads as
government by terror for a special
class" and declares that the govern
ment must be made supreme to both
capital and labor, though insisting that
the just claims of labor should be rec
ognized.
Communism, Senator Poindexter de-
clared, is inconsistent with the vested
rights of the laborer to his wages.
Treating of international matters,
the platform remarks that the united
process of making supreme sacri-
fice' of Americans, "of joining our
forces with the fortunes of men every
where" should be stopped.

STARVING AIRMEN
SLAIN IN MEXICO
MEXICAN FISHERMEN CHARGED
WITH NUMBERING AMERICANS
LOST IN STRANGE LAND.
Two Army Filters, Nineteen Days With.
out Food, Scratch Last Messages
on Plane in Which They Had
Lost Their Way.

San DiegO.-It has been officially
announced that Lieuts. Cecil II. Con-
molly of San Diego and Frederick B.
Warehouse of Weiser, Ida, army avn
ators missing since August 81, were
slain in Lower California by two Mex
lean fishermen.
The announcement was made upon
the arrival here of the destroyer Aaron
Ward, bringing the bodies of the two
aviators from Bahai Los Angeles, on
the Gulf of Lower California, to which
point they had flown after losing their
way in a border patrol flight from
Yuma, Ariz., to San Diego.
\ According to Maj II. S. Bratton,
head of the military party sent from
here to recover the bodies, the slayers
were from Mexican sloop, their iden
tity is known to both the United
States and Mexican governments, and
steps are being taken to capture them.
The destroyer also brought a part
of a story of the sufferings endured
by the young aviatoTs, in the form of
notes scrawled in part on the wings
and fuselage of the De Haviland air.
plane in which Connolly and Water
house made their last flight.
Some of these messages, evidently
written when the aviators had almost
lost hope of being found, were of such
tragic nature that Major BrattOn
asked the newspaper reporters to re-
frain from using them, out of consid-
Grafton for the officers families.
Major Bratton said that the two
aviatOrs had gone nineteen days with
out food, or at least without much to
sustain'them. The fate that drew them
far from their air path remained with
them until the very last.
Maj. Theodore MacAuley in one of
his flights to find them, flew within
sixty miles of the spot where the two
men stood guarding their plane.

PRESIDENT VETOES
ENFORCEMENT BILL
DRY FORCES PROMPTLY PUT
MEASURE BEFORE HOUSE AND
OVERRIDE HIS ACTION.
Refused to Sign Bill Because 1t In.
cIuded Enforcement Of Wartime
Prohibition, Declares President
in Brief Statement.

Standardization Wilson UNI
expectedly vetoed the prohibition en-.
forcement bill on Monday and within
three hours the house had re-passed il
over his veto by vote of 176 to 30
The total vote was barely more than
majority of the entire membership
but % more than the necessary two
thirds.
The president refused to sign the
bill because 1t included the enforce
ment of wartime prohibition.
The objects of wartime prohibition
the president said In his veto, had been
satisfied and ''sound public policy
makes clear the reason and necessity
for its repeal"
1t would not be difficult, the presi-
dent held, for congress to deal separ-
ately with the two issues.
The veto hit congress like a crack
of lightning. The house, getting on its
feet again deserted its leaders, who
wanted to defer consideration until
Thursday, so as to round up all the
dry members. But the dries swept in
to the chamber and showed there was
an overwhelming sentiment among
them to give the government ample
weapons for dealing with the liquor
traffic, now outlawed throughout the
land.
Nobody had really professed to know
that the president would veto the bill.
The Republicans and Democrats alike
and the countless multitude that had
sorrowfully watched the passing of the
bars--thought it would become a law
without his signature. Attorney Gen
eral Palmer, it was said, had delivered
1t constitutional.
But the president, propped up in
bed, dictated and then signed veto
messaged and sent it along to congress,
without worrying, apparently, about
what congress might do.
With repassage of the law by the
house and the prospect of the same
thing happening in the senate, hope
of the big "wet SPELL" that would
run over the Christmas season, van
ished into thin air.

II You Need a Medicine

It Ii that so many products that are ex-

reason is PLAINTIFF article did not fulfill

applies more particularly to medicine.

curative value almost sells itself, u like

According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of Dr..
kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,

nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
