BY MONTANA SENATOR

Of ~BarbarOus Oppres-
sion In Speech.

Washington, July Charging tAe
British government "barharous oppres-
sion Of the Irish, - Senator Walsh, Mon
tana, in a speech to the senate today,
declared tina ireland 5 hope for freedom
lies in the league of nations.
I'VE have earned the right to say to-
England" Walsh said. "that her treat
ment of ireland is eonstaTs meaaec to
the amity we are desirous of preserving
lnimpaircd between the two countries. =
But if England proves deaf to Amer
lean sdvices, "artiele ii Of the league
covenant would afford Ireland an op-
portunity, either directly or through a
friendly power, to bring her claims to
the attention Of the league" Walsh
maintained, Article IL refers to "any
war or threat Of war;" and provides
also that league members may bring up
matters affecting international relations
which threaten to international peace
of the good understanding between ma
tion upon which peace depends"
Walsh denied that article X would
stifle Ireland S nationalist impulses by
preventing a revolution. He quoted
Irish history to show, however, how fu.
tile Ireland's hopes through revolution
have proved. He assailed Sir Edward
Carson, Ulster leader, who he declared
was rewarded for his treason" and Sir
John French, former commander of the
forces in ireland, who refused TO eoereo
Ulster.
Discussing the effect of article X on
the rights of submerged peoples to win
freedom, Walsh declared that the right
of revolution is guaranteed Dy the arti-
Gle end not denied as charged by league
opponents.
Article X, Walsh said, is an expression
of universal feeling that ono part Of
the earth should be vexed by war"

RATE CASE HEARING
Interstate Commerce COmlmis-
sion To Shift Hearing To /.
Seattle.

Portland, Or, July 2ss-(United
Press. The state of Idaho represented
by Leonard Way, today in oral argu-
ment asked the interstate commerce
commission to let Idaho profit by any
reduction of rates that may result from
the Columbia basin rate case being
heard here.
Way, who is the rate expert of the
Idaho public service commission, ex.
planned some alleged discrepancies in
rates as they apply to Idaho, and said
that six billion tons of freight originate
annually in the Idaho district.
Way asked that whatever rates is es.
tsbhshed between the Inland Empire
and Puget Sound and the Inland Empire
and Portland be reflected in eastbound
and westbound rates affecting Idaho.
PortlaRd's contentious were again pre-
sented today when j. p Newell, consult.
ing engineer Of the Oregon public serv-
ice commission again took the stand.
Newell traced routes over the moutains.
outlined costs of freight moving and the
cause of such costs. His cross-examina.

The commissioners had returned from
Astoria where they spent yesterday in
speeting dock facilities of the city al
the mouth of the Columbia.
Resistance to the pull Of the engine
is the principal factor governing the
cost of operating varied stretches Of
railroad track over equal distances Of
territory, Newell testified. The fact
that resistance over mountainous haul'
is vastly greater than over water Level
hauls led to the statement that in every

F BACK HURTS USE
 SALTS FOR KIDNEYS
Eat less meat if Kidneys feel like lead or Bladder bothers you-Msat
 forms uric acid.

Moot folks forget that the kidneys. like the bowels, get sluggish and clogged and need a flushing occasionally, else we have backache and dull misery in the kidney region, severe headaches, rheu- matic twinges, torpid liver, acid stomach. sleeplessness and all sorts of bladder dis orders.
 You simply must keep your kidneys active and clean, and the moment you feel m ache or pain in the kidney region, get about four ounces of lad Salts from any good drug store here, take . tablespoonful in glass of water before breakfast for . few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and is harmless to flush cloggcd kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity. It also neutrslizes the acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder disorders.
 Jsd Salts is harmless; inexpensive; makes 8 delightful effervescent lithia- water drink which everybody should take now and then to keep their kidneys clean, thus avoiding serious complications.

FARM LANDS FOR
 OOUGHBOYS WHO
 WON WORLD WAR
SECRETARY OF INTERIOR WOULD MAKE LAND AVAILABLE FOR
 RETURNING SOLDIER.
INCREASE FOOD SUPPLY
Canadans and Anxscs Are sendinc Their Returned Fighting Men
 to Farms.

All of the English-speaking coun- tries that have taken part in the war are making arrangements to send as many returning soldiers back to the land as care to go. Canada has her plans well under way as have New Zealand, Australia. and, the British Isles. In this country we are just getting well started on the proposi- tion
 By means of investigations made by the government, it Is found that we have millions of acres of lands, idle lands, lands suitable for homestead ing, acres tbat ought to be adding to the worlds food supply and giving homes to race of independent Amer fcan farmers.
 The spirit of the whole nation is backing the proposal of Secretary of the Interior Lane to open all the avail able lands of the nation, the public lands of the country to the soldier. He has recalled to congress the great part the mustered out soldiers of the Civil War played in making the great West.
 But to take this land i5,O00, 900 available acres of it, and turn it over to the soldiers will require a govern mental appropriation. The money will be needed to reciasSity end open to entry the lands that are lying idle It is the land of the government and can be made over to the returning sol dier on splendid terms if the country will back up the proposal. What bet ter use could be made of part of the Victory Liberty Loan than this And to what better use could it be placed to work for the future of the Aation?
 The money in the hands of the gov ernment will make this and other afterthe-war projects of the govern ment possible. These lands will ssve homes to thousands of soldiers home from the war
 It is the solution of such problems as this that causes the government to need money and to set about raising it through the Victory Liberty Loan and War Savings and Thrift Stamps. Every dollars woth of securities bought will bring the day when before the-war conditions return, just that much closer. The notes of the Victory Liberty Loan (sbort term bonds) will enable the nation to express its grati- tude to the soldiers who come back i; they will fortify our national prosper. ity, increase our shop and agricultural resources and at the same time they will be good business proposition to the man who buys them.

A FAMILY MEDICINE
l. Her Mother's Hone, Says Thia Ceoryia Lady, Regarding Black Drausht. Relief From Head
 ache, Malaria, Chills, Etc.

Ringgold. Ga.- Mrs. Chas. Gaston, of this place, writes: "I am . user of Thedford's Black-Draught; in fact, 1t was one of our family medicines Also in my mothers home, when I ren complained of headache. usually caused by constipation. she gave us . dose of Black -Draught, which would rectify the trouble. Often in the Spring. we would have malaria and chills, or troubles of this kind, we would take Black-Draught pretty reg ular until the liver acted well. and we would soon be up and around again. We would not be without 1t, for it certainly has saved us lots of doctor bills. Just dose of Black Draught when not % we'll saves a lot of days in bed"
 Thedford's Black-Draught has been in use for many years in the treat ment of stomach, liver and bowel troubles, and the popularity which It now enjoys is proof of it's merit.
 If your liver is not doing its duty, you will suffer from such disagree able symptoms as headache. bilious. ness, constipation, indigestion, etc., and unless something is done. serious trouble may result.
 Thedford's Black -Draught has been found . valuable remedy for these troubles. It is purely vegetable. and acts in . prompt and natural way, regulating the liver to it's proper functions and cleansing the bowels of impurities. Try 1t. Insist on Thed' ford's. the original and genuine. E 70

As in all former loans and other government calls and activities, the church of the country is rallying her forces again to go out and meet the new call of the Victory Liberty Loan, and she is telling her people that this is her battle for finished peace.
 Fighting, we trust, is over, but the war has not yet been won is the challenge sent out by Rev. Dr. W. R. King. president of the St Louis Church Federation end pastor of the First Presbyterian Church. Much remains to be done, both across the sea and in the home land It takes money to demobilize an army and to make sure the victory is won in bat tie. Our sincerity in beginning this war will be shown by our spirit in the ending and in completing our vic tory. Every American should, as matter of duty. ss an expression or thankfulness. do his part toward this Victory Loan"
 Rev. Dr. David Nj. Skilling, paste. of the Webster Groves Presbyterian Church, says he will use the force of his pulpit and church publication to win support of the loan.
 The work of destruction is over and the work of construction is just ahead. is the view of Rev. Dr. w H. 6eist- welt, pastor of the Third Baptist Church, which is one of the great con gregations of the Middle West
