INDIANAPOLIS. Nov 1s.--Formcr
Justice Charles Il. Hughes reviewed
the criticisms Of the direct primary

League, Of which he is President. He
said that while some OF the criticism
is well founded. it is Il mistake to

direct primary is to destroy or impair
party organization.

II have nevSr favored the so-called
open primary" he added, "and have
never believed IN attempts to destroy
party organization. I do not, how
ever. believe that the old time party
convention should be restored, for
while It might work well for a time,
It would in the absence OF suitable
checks give opportunity for the
wrongs and selfish control OF party

Readers Of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands Of women

suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in . healthy con-
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous. irrita-
bic and may be despondent; it makes any
one 80.
But hundreds of women claim that Dr..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root. by restoring
health to the kidneys, proved to be just
the remedy needed to overcome such
conditions.
Many send for sample bottle to see
what Swamp Root, the great kidney,
liver and bladder medicine, will dc for
them. By enclosing ten cents to DR..
Kilmer 4 Co., Binghamton, N: Y. you
may receive sample size bottle by Parcel
Post. You can purchase medium and

CHINESE SHOOT RUSS

the Russian soldiers would refuse to

are ordered to perform. They are

them and who raised them from the

"If the 'boltsjak' (his name for boil
shevik) orders something, the Chinese
does It, and he does 1t in his typically
practical way. He first makes the VIC
tim dig his own grave and then shoots
him with his revolver. He Is not cruel
about 1t. Just practical.
"When boltsjak says kill. then he
kills with an unperturbed face. And

now with the same cool face he lets
