BETTER THAN GALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets
are a Harmless Substitute

DIR. Edwards Olive TabIets-the sub
stitute for calomel-are a mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. These little olive
colored tablets are the result of DR..
Edwards determination not to treat
liver and bowel complaints with calomel.
The pleasant little tablets do the
good that calomel does. but have no
bad after effects, They don't injure the
teeth like strong liquids or calomel-
They take hold of the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the liver
at the expense of the teeth? Calomel
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
So do strong liquids. 1t is best not to
take calomel. Let DR. Edwards Olive
Tablets take its place
Headaches, "dullness" and that lazy
feeling come from constipation and a
disordered liver. Take DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel "logy and
heavy. q They "clear" clouded brain
and ''perk up the spirits, l0c and 25c.

To Remove MiIdew.

1t is best to get at mildew stain
right away before it has injured. First,
try this mild treatment: Soak the
stains overnight in sour milk and then
place in the sun without rinsing. Re-
peat the treatment several times If
necessary. If this does not remove
them all, try lemon, moistenlng the
stains with lemon juice and allow it
to remain in the sun. If the stains are
very persistent go to the druggist and
ask for few crystals of potassium
permanganate. Dissolve one teaspoon
full in pint of water and apply little
of this to the STAINS with a medicine
dropper or a clean cork and allow
1t to remain in five minutes Remove
any pink stain left by this chemical
with little oxalic acid. If used with
care permanganate does not as a rule
take out color. but try it first on an
unexpOsed portion of the skirt.

lentiles, and millet, and titcEcs, and
put them in one vessel, and make thee

of The Tribune, was one of the most

titled that he had deliberately permit.

as an anarchist because it seemed to
him to sum up Mr. Fords activities.
He testified at length, under cross-ex-
animation, concerning the attitude
which his paper took in favor of war
with Mexico but against war with Ger
many, and admitted that The Tribune
had in mind the material benefits
which would accrue to the United
States in the event of Intervention,
and the fact that no such gains could
be reaped from war with Germany.
Ford Was in the Way.
During the course of his testimony
Mr. Blake characterized the utter
ances and the attitude Of Mr.. Ford as
notorious Ford counsel took the
stand that Mr. Ford's position could
not have been notorious to readers of
The Tribune because The Tribune new
er referred to the alleged statements
which 1t is now using as means of
justifying its attack. Its attitude to-
wards Mr.. Ford, counsel attempted to
show by questioning the witness, was
based upon the fact that just when it
seemed that the papers long campaign
for war with Mexico was about to
Lear fruit, and troops were being bur
ried to the border, it suddenly found
Henry Ford in its way.
Submarine warfare, in the estima-
ton of The Tribune, the witness said,
was never sufficient cause for war. Mr.. |
Blake admitted that the newspaper
did not demand armed redress after
the sinking of the Lustania, and that
when the President used the Sussex
case as test, The Tribune continued
to declare that the submarine issue
was no cause for war.

President Wilson went to Europe to
perpetuate the work of our American
soldiers. His mission to France was ex-
planned in this light in an adde's deliv-
cred to a group of American soldiers,
shortly after his arrival. Now he is re-
turning to America with draft of the
league of nations tucked away with num-
eous gifts from royalty and kings. The
work is done and the glory of the Ameri-
can troops has been carved in the worlds
history by his visit.
Meanwhile American soldiers are occu-
plying Germany and being slaughtered in
Russia to perpetuate the work CT Mr..
Wilson. homesick boys fill the canton
ments at home while the world talks of
disarmament and perpetual peace. Gao
ualties of battles fought four and five
months ago are still dragging in. Mail
service to the boys abroad, which was in
tolerable in war, is even worse in peace.
Anxious fathers and mothers pray for
the return of their boys or written word
of enlightenment, in vain.
With these sacrifices we are perpetual
ing the memory of Americans whose task
ended the day the armistice was signed.
Despite the prattle of world leagues, in
ternational obligations, universal broth
erhoods and perpetual peace, we have
long since accomplished our purpose in
the war against Germany. Idealistic
buncomb to the contrary, we Went to war
for but a single purpose and that was the
protection of American rights. Germany
with her insults pressed. us beyond the
limits of endurance and we gave batcle.
The insults were avenged and Ameri-

armistioe and the surrender of the Ger
man fleet with its submarines their work
was done. All it lacked was perpetuation

THE TRIBUNE's POLICY

The following excerpt from letter~to
The Herald is fair example of inquiries
that have been coming in from all parts
of the state for several months:
81 have noticed for some time that the
Salt Lake Tribune is evidently controlled
by the Democrat ring that has its head
quarters in the state house. Last Octob-
er the Democrat committee used the Tri-
bune's editorial as campaign literature,
while the Tribune ignored any news that
came from the Republican side. That
paper has Endorsed every act of the Bam-
berger administration up to date and has
been equally enthusiastic over the nation
al blunders of the Democratic admins
tration. took the Tribune for years
under the impression that it was an in
dependent Republican newspaper, but l
am thoroughly convinced that it guided
and controlled entirely by the Democrat
machine. When the Republicans of Utah
gave their Lincoln day dinner last We'd
nesday night The Tribune passed it up
with small mention, Notwithstanding the
fact that it was the largest and most rep
resentative gathering of Republicans
from all parts of the state ever assembled
at a similar occasion. am also inform
ed that the Tribune repeatedly refused
to publish advance information on the
Lincoln day dinner. Can you tell me who
controls the Tribune at the present
time?"
According to the best information OBJ
tainable by the Herald, w. w. Armstrong
appears to be the dominating influence
in the Tribune's policy Since the death
of David Keith and Senator Kearns Mr..
Armstrong has been placed in a position
that gives him considerable power and as
he aspires to be the next Democratic sem
ator he is welding his power to good eff
feet. He seems to be working in har-
mony with the Bamberger machine,
which is salaried organization cover
ing the state, and it is generally under
stood that the Armstrong Bamberger
combination is ready to meet all contest
ants for Democrat honors. At any rate
they are to be congratulated on their
ability to control the Tribune in the in
terests of the Democrat party. 1t is a
bit of political finesse worthy of Tam
many Hall in its best days-Salt Lake
Herald. .--

and President Wilson went abroad to Sc
cure this. He is returning home and may
we not assume that he has accomplished
his purpose if for no other reason than
to obtain the early return of our soldiers
on foreign soil? Let Europe take care
of herself and let our Americans come
home. The United States wants nothing
more; it does not so desire to be the
worlds guardian that it will exact
lengthy foreign service from men who
have long since won their point-Salt

MIR. MASTERS COW BILL

The action of the house on Monday in
passing Representative Masters bill re-
lating to the killing of livestock, follow
ing Mr.. Masters argument in support of
the bill and presumably because of the
acceptance of his logic, certainly is not
reassuring to the vast majority of the
people of the state, who expect their rep
resentatives in the legislature to display
at least an average amount of common
sense in their law making. This bill,
briefly stated, provides that the killing
of livestock by railroad train is prima
facie evidence of negligence on the part
of the railroad Similar bills have been
introduced regularly in the Utah legisla-
ture for probably dozen years past. If
we remember correctly neither branch
of any previous legislature attained the
distinction of passing such measure.
To ordinary minds the objection to the
bill is that it upsets our jurisprudence, in
that the burden of proof, if the bill be-
comes law, will be transferred from
the plaintiff to the defendant. The Tri-
bune very politely, and, as we thought,
with exceeding tact, pointed out this fact
some days ago. Mr.. Masters in his
speech on the bill took issue with our
reasoning quite vigorously, and insisted
that the bill was in entire accord with
our Jurisprudence. He argued that, in
murder case, for instance, the defendant
was required to prove himself innocent.
The Tribune hesitates to take issue on
question of law with any gentleman oc,
cupying such an exalted position as that
of member of the Utah Legislature, and
hence, it does not deny the truth of what
Mr.. Masters says. 1t can only express
doubt. We do not know of any such legal
practice, in Utah. We have never heard
of any man charged with murder who
was required to prove his innocence. In
all of the cases that have come under The
Tribune's observation, the state was re-
quired to make out the case and the as
sumption always prevailed of the inno-
cence of the accused until his guilt was
proven. Strange things, however, hap
pen, and it may be that Mr.. Masters is
right. Also, it may be true that black is
white.
In previous comment on this bill The
Tribune urged that the measure was i'm
perfect 1t suggested that in all such
cases, of livestock being killed by rail-
road, the fact of the killing should be
made by law prima facie evidence that
the COW so killed, notwithstanding her
age and heredity, was pedigreed heifcr,
valued at whatever amount the bereaved
owner might fix as a sufficient compon-
sation. It might be well, also, to provide
an adequate punishment for the engineer
and conductor of any train killing an in
nocent COW, whose only offense was that
she Jumped fence in order to stroll
along the railroads right of way
This punishment might vary from be-
ing rated inisdemeanor in the case of the
killing of an ordinary range cow, to pos
sibly second degree murder in the case

simple articles Of commerce and
instruments of labor.
For the rest nothing is more III
diculous than the virtuoous indigna
ton of our bourgeois at the COM
munity of women which they pre-
tend is to be openly and officially
established by the Communists.
! The Communists have no need to
introduce the community Of wo-
men; it has existed almost from
time immemorial.
Our bourgeois, not content with
having the wives and daughters of
their proletarians at their disposal
not to speak of common prosti-
tutes, take the greatest pleasure
in seducing each others wives.
Bourgeois marriage is in reality
a system 'of>wives in common, and
thus, at the most, what the Com
munists might possibly be re-
preached with, is that they desire
to introduce in substitution for
hypocritically concealed an openly
legalized community of women.
This is the kind of doctrine that George
d. Heron has publicly espoused. 1t is
the kind of doctrine that, if established
lin our National life, would do more to
undermine the American Republic than
any attacks upon life or property.

same thing in behalf of the people of the
United States?
