American Friendship
Matter of Life and Death

So long as opposition in America
concentrates its attack upon the prin-
elple of American association with
Europe in the preservation Of peace, in
the reorganization of life and in
dustry on the old basis Mr.. Wilson
will continue to exercise undisputed
mastery in the Paris conference, in
which no man agrees with his abstrac ct
principles, all men chafe at his insis-
tence upon postponing peace until he
has carried out his own programme.
But not only that, but after peace
comes, every appeal Europe can make
to the heart and conscienc of America
will be made on Mr.. Wilson'S behalf,
if he is permitted to retain his present
position of sole champion in America
of the cause Of European salvation,
the first friend of our stricken Allies,
for whom American friendship, moral
as we'll as material, is matter of life
and death.

that if the league is created, America g
support is assured.
Therefore, when the Republicans
adopted or seemed to Europe to adopt
a policy of desertion, course involv-
ing the abandonment Of our European
Allies, Europe naturally concluded that
Mr.. Wilson was their single hope. their
one friend in America, the leader whose
victory alone could assure the greater
victory which was for them u question
of life or death. An attack upon the
league league of nations leaves Europe cold
Miliions OF plain people demanded
some sort of international understand
ing which will make future wars i'm
possible, but beyond a vague aspira-
ton there is little clear thinking. In
France, the league of nations idea has
enlisted little support. only moderate
support IN Britain. But the thing that
the league of nations symbolizes-
namely, American participation in
world reorganization, is a thing of in
Unite value in all eyes. This Is what
opposition in America seemed at this
distance to have assailed.

Secret of the
Presidents Strength

To-day, Mr.. Wilson's influence in
Europe, which is irresistible, rests
upon the general belief that he and his
party in America are fighting to have
America remain force for good and
for sanity in the world. while his op-
ponents are seeking to have the United
States abandon her incompletely finish
ed task in Europe, fee home and erect
a barbed wire fence about America.
If we should do this, believe the most
sober minded men over here are salts
fed that all Europe would go Bolshe-
vist-certainly that is my own view.
Thus in effect thescampaign in Amer
ica has taken precisely the one course
which compelled Europe to accept the
actual domination Of Mr.. Wilson in the
Paris convention, to permit him to
postpone all peace plans, TO confuse
and complicate all proceedings. to make
everything wait on his own league of
nations plan, because it attacked Mr..
Wilson at the one precise point where
Europe was bound to support him.

Where l. American Plan?

Ireland may be the first 10 break the
peace of the world, speakers warned
yesterday at mass meeting of the
Friends of Irish Freedom.
Justice Daniel F. Cohalan speaking
at the Metropolitan Opera House,
who're President Wilson refused to
meet him on his last visit to New York,
said: There will be no peace unless
the people of Ireland, who have set
themselves up as an independent re-
public to govern their own country and
race, receive from all nations the rec
ognition to which they are entitled"
Major Eugene F. Kinkead, former
representative in Congress from New
Jersey, said: "No world problem is so
potential to the peace of the world as
the unsettled Irish problem. 1t re-
mains for England TO say whether we

Ovation for Cohalan
Justice Cohalan, introduced by Jus.
tlce Edward J. Gayegan as a man "who
respects those to whom respect is due
but fears God alone" received a tre-
mendous ovation from the audience.
For several minutes the room rang
with cheers, and thereafter whenever a
speaker mentioned Justice Cohaan it
was the signal for another outburst of
applause and shouts of "He's one man
England can't bamboozlel'
Justice Cohalan declared that the
men of Irish blood always had been
among tho arst to spring TO the aid Of
America when their adopted land was
threatened.
The Irish ask only the opportunity
of doing what their forefathers did

the Irish question 70 come before the
peace conference either she distrusts
the tribunal or the justice of her
cause. Surely she does not distrust
her allies. If Englands only title to
Ireland is force she may we'll be afraid
of the justice of her cause"
There was only one objection, he
said, to the independence of Ireland
and that was that it would not be to
the advantage of England. History
offered nothing, he declared, to com
pare with the "persistency. subtlety and
cleverness' of English diplomacy Only
England stood to profit by many Of the

continued, calling particular attention

Nobody Cares
About the Phrases

One reads with amazement American
discussion of the provisions of the
leage of nations covenant. No one in
Europe gives them passing notice save
in few restricted quarters. One sim
ilarly reads with amazement the as
sertion that all Europe is enthusias-
tically committed to the covenant Of
the league of nations. This is mere
nonsense. Europe is interested in
keeping as much faulty and ignorance
out of the covenant as passble; its in
terest in the text is purely negative;
it doesn't believe in the text as such.
Last of all one comes to the point
OF view of Americans in Europe out
side of the Presidents encourage.
These have no interest in the league Of
nations covenant. They recognize that
all through the early stage sof the war
the President was totally out of accord
with their sympathy with the Allied
cause; they believe, not too unreason-
ably, that he cares little now about
anything but abstract academic

equitable treatment for the commerce

SO shrewd an accumulator as

you make losses at other times,
and in the lonB run you are

What Europe Looks

lied Europe recognizes the essential
fact that the war is not yet over; that
It will not be over until its conse-
asences have been liquidated in a safe
peace, q we'll buttressed European stu
alton. All Allied Europe equally
clearly recognizes that only with Amer
ca's continuing aid can safe peace
bo obtained and preserved.
Mr.. Wilson's Boston speech con-
qusred Allied Europe because it con-
vineed it that Mr. Wilson and his party
we're fighting Europe's cause in Amer
ca; that only in the domestic victory
Of Mr.. Wilson was the salvation of
Europe to be realized
Accordingly, when Mr.. Wilson
reached Paris again his position had
been fortified. not weakened, by do
nestle political dissensions. He was
welcomed as the great American who
was fighting for Europe in America;
he resumed his paramount influence in
the peace conference.
If the Republican party bad attacked
the league of nations covenant, if it
had at one time indicated it's determi-
nation that the United States should
finish the great task in Europe, and
It's equal conviction that Mr.. Wilson's
covenant. based upon mistaken princi-
pies, must be totally transformed. the
situation would have been quite differ
eHt. No government in Europe cares
red cent about the covenant of the
league Of nations; only Mr.. Wilson and
few British statesmen like Lord Rob
ert Cecil, who mainly composed it, re-
gard 1t as of Importance. The people
OF the various nations have only the
vaguest ideas about it; they take it as
symbol, not as legal document.

Clean Cotton Seed

ATLANTA, May 14.-Stephen Pace,
member of the house of representa-
tives from Sumter county, who was in
Atlanta Monday, conferred with state
capitol officials, including Commits
sioner Brown, of the department of

seed every particle of lint.
1T seems that the cotton oil mills
are buying up gins on a very extensive
SCALE" said Representative Pace.
These gins do not clean the cotton
seed as they should, but leave on the
seed considerable quantity of lint.
Before manufacturing the cotton seed
the oil mills clean off the lint and
sell it for a good price. All of the lint
cotton an oil mill gets off the seed is
that much money in the oil mills
pocket and that much money out of
the farmers pocket"

WHY DOCTORS
PRESCRIBE The
new CALOMEL
Medicinal Virtues Retained And In
prOVed-Unpleasant and Salivating
Qualities Removed Variety
Called "CalOtabs."

OF all the medicines in the world,
doctors prescribe calomel most often
and depend upon it most universally.
There must be good and sufficient
reason-what is it?
If you will study the Doctors books
you will find that the medical authori-
ties prescribe calomel for almost ev-
cry disease. The reason is that Gallo
mel is the greatest and only thorough
system purifier. It makes the liver
active, drives out the poisons from the
stomach, bowels and kidneys
and thereby purifies the blood.
Calomel puts the entire system in the
most Favorable condition for Nature to
exercise her recuperative power. That
is why he prescribes calomel so often.
The new kind of calomel, called
"Calotabs' is refined and purified from
all of the nausCating and dangerous
qualities of the old style calomel and
is rapidly taking its place, for it is
more effective than the old style calo-
mel as liver-cleanser and system
purifier. One Calotab at bedtime with
a swallow of water-that's ALL No
salts, no nausea, nor the slightest I'M
pleasantness. Next morning you awake
feeling fine-with a hearty appetite for
breakfast. Eat what you please. No
restrictions or habit or diet.
CalOtabS are sold only in original
sealed packages, price thirty-five
cents. Recommended and guaranteed
by druggists everywhere. Your money
back if you are not delighted. adv

CALOIDS ARE BEST
FOR THE Liver

Jasper NJ. Grimes, prominent Berrien
county citizen, is recommending CALL

to his friends. Mr.. Grimes says: Il
have used CALOIDS, the new calomel
compound, and gladly recommend them
to any one who needs medicine for the
liver or bowels. They are the best
liver medicine l have ever used"
CALOIDS positively will not cause
nausea or distress. They are being
used extensively where medicine that
will act directly but quietly, upon the
liver is required. You can get CAL
ODDS from your druggist. adv
