The Senate has passed the much
talked of Knox resolution putting an
end to the technical war between
this Country and Germany. There
can be no doubt of the lower house
concuring in the Senate resolution,
and unless vetoed by President Will
son, we will be at peace with the
World again at an early date. 1t is
freely said that Wilson will veto the
measure, and in case he does, it is
morally certain that we will be at
war with the Central European Pow
er until after the next presidential
election 1t remains to be seen
whether we reside in a free Republic
where the will of the majority pre-
walls or in a Government where the
will of a single individual autocrati-
cally dominates. Less than half
dozen of Wilson's most extreme parti-
san followers have failed to support
some one of the reservations as Of
fered to the League OF Treaty. yet
the necessary two-thrds majority
can not be mustered to pass it over
the Presidents veto. Must the ma
jority yield to the minority? If so,
then our boosted government is not
of that class to be properly designated
as free Democracy, or government
of the people, for the people and by
the people, but is of, for and by
Woodrow Wilson only If we were
wholly devoid of partisanship, with
reference to the two greater parties
we imagine that we can now see and
hear the Country's answerto the de-
mand of the head Of the Democratic
Party that his will be done, his selfish
ambition be gratified, that he be vndi-
Gated that his peace terms be accept
ed, and if not, that the United States
shall be in war until doomsday, which
for the Democratic portion of the
Country, Nationally speaking, will
most assuredly be November the End,
next.

DRECO IS GREAT

Declares two bottles Of Dreco have
wiped out every pain and his

Many Of the very best and prosperous

there, owns property in indianapolis
and a farm in southern Florida. Mr.
Harvey says:
II believe every joint in my body
ached from rheumatism. My muscles
were sore from it. l couldn't stoop over
for the pains In my back. Ny stomach
was very weak, often being full of gas,
and my nerves were on edge so that
couldn't sleep much. l bought a farm
in Florida so I could get away from the
severe weather in winter, as my rheu-
matism was awful during bad weather.
"Dreco has certainly knocked out my
rheumatism. l haven't a pain anywhere,
my stomach is so much improved that I
have gained seven pounds. / sleep well,
in fact Dreco has simply made me feel
fine and l think it the greatest medicine
l ever saw"
Dreco acts on the bowels making the
action smooth and regular, aids the
stomach to digest the food, gives
strength to weak Kidneys, rouses a lazy
liver to full action and cleanses impuri.

Lack Of steamship, passenger facilities,

Since 1913, departures have exceeded

The reasons. he said, include more
stringent passport laws, both here and
abroad and the present European unrest
What nationalities will comprise the

RUSS EMBARGO
REMOVAL BLOW
AT SOVIETISM
Policy of Administration Is
Shown in Wording of Of
fetal Document.
EACH CASE SEPARATE

WASHINGTON. July SIN removing
the embargo against Russian trade.
President Wilson has written the final
chapter to the present administrations
policy toward the soviet government Of
Russia, officials believed today.
The removal of the trade embargo IS
understood to be designed primarily as
a blow at the Russian soviet government.
The action Of the state department car
ries the following salient provisions:
Each application for permission to ship
to Russia will be decided on its own
merits. and shipment of materials 'sus-
ceptible of immediate use for war rur-
poses will be prohibited.
RECOGNITION
HOT IMPLIED.
Political recognition of any Russian
euthority exercising or claiming to exer-
else governmental functions, is neither
granted nor implied by this action"
Individuals or corporations taking this
opportunity to trade with Russia will
do so entirely on their own responsibility,
and at their own risk, and the assistance
which the United States normally ex-
tends TO ITS citizens trading or travelling
in a recognized country cannot be looked
for in the case Of Russia.
The prohibition Of travel from and to
Russia and the United States is IN
changed by the lifting Of the embargo,
and passports for Russia will still be
withheld
AMERICANS WARNED
AGAINST RISKS.
The United States does not recognize
the validity OF Industrial or commercial
concessions granted by the bolshevik
authorities, and Americans are warned
against the risks Of accepting commodi-
ties or other values in payment for ship
ments where the title later may be ques-
toned.
The state department is understood to
believe that the lifting Of the embargo
will weaken the soviet. bolshevik author
titles having spread propaganda that the
principal countries Of the world were try
ing 20 starve Russia.
The state department expects very lit
tie trade with Russia, since Russia has
only a small quantity Of raw material for
export and her purchasing power IS
limited.
