THE TREATY.

The covenant of the league of nations
and the treaty, the text of which filled
printed book of 1872 pages, is dead as the
proverbial door nail. AS yet there are
no indications that the heart of the world
has been broken. In fact it seems to be
throbbing with strength and regularity
and to be OVERLOOKING with the usual
amount of the milk of human kindness.
This must be very comforting to the chief
mourner and also to that devoted band of
23democrats who stood around the bedside
of the dear departed when the fatal mo-
ment came. Whether the remains will
find a final resting place in the White
House tomb or in the crypt of the Foreign
Relations Committee has not yet been
decided. There are prophets who predict
that the spirit of the dead treaty will
walk the earth during the coming Presi-
Dental campaign. We do not see any
reason why the Republicans should in
woke it's presence. They should and
probably will let the dead rest in peace.
There are plenty of live issues which
should have consideration. Neither can
we see how the Democrats can force the
treaty into the campaign after the roll
call has shown that 81 of their Senators
voted in favor of its ratification with
reservations, and % of the faithful voted
against it. ga house divided against it.
self cannot stand" We can readily I'M
derstand, however, why the specter of
that Jekyll and Hyde which died in the
Senate Chamber March 10, is likely to
rise and gibber in the next Democratic
national convention. After that we do
not think it will ever alarm or disturb
anybody.
History shows that never once in
hundred years has Germany regarded a
treaty as being more than scrap of
paper except when its terms imposed
obligations upon people whom they had
conquered. Several weeks ago a treaty
of peace was ratified between Germany
and England, France, Italy, Belgium and
certain other of our allies. This treaty
stipuates that in the three months fol-
lowing its coming into force the Germans
shall deliver specified number of do
mestic animals, in monthly instalments,
to the French and the Belgium govern
ments. Instead of doing as they agreed
the Germans shouted: impossible A
certain number of tons of coal were to
be delivered to England, to France and
to Italy. Again came the cry: 'Tmpossi-
ble"! Germany pledged her word that
persons guilty of criminal acts against
the nationals of the allied powers would
be given up to the military courts OF these
powers for trial. The allied powers sub.
mitted a list of 1886 German officers
against whom charges of such criminal
acts had been made and asked for their
surrender.i The Germans fatty refused to
surrender one of them. Only few days
ago the imperialists drove the Ebert gov
eminent out of Berlin, and Won Kapp,
q representative of the old autocratic
regime, was proclaimed DICTATOR and, ap-
parently believing that ''me und Colt"
again ruled Germany he condescended to
inform the allies concerning German in
tentions by saying: "The conditions of
the peace treaty will be fulfilled so far as
they can be reconciled with German
honor and German economic conditions"
Having, as we have shown, repudiated

Ever Get
Bilious?
Try This
Mr. Tonight Tomorrow Feel Right

When your liver goes on strike and
you feel a sick headache and bilious
spell coming on, instead of prodding
your liver with dangerous calomel and
lashing your bowels with strong, ir-
ritating purgatives, get out your box
of mild, gentle-acting Mr. Tablets and
take one right off.
Relief will come just as quickly and
with it genuine, lasting benefit. -
There will be no gripping, gnaw-
ing pains or doubling stomach
ache. Natures Remedy (NR
Tablets) work promptly and
thoroughly, but the action is
gentle, mild and soothing.
Relief comes through the &C.
ton of Natures Remedy on not
only the liver, but on the whole diges-
tive and eliminative system,-the stom-
ach, the bowels and even on the kid
neys. Stored up Accommodations Of
waste and body poisons that have
been clogging the system are complete
ly cleared out, the over-worked stom-
ach is strengthened and the Interrupted
work of digestion and assimilation is
resumed. The inactive liver goes to
work with new vigor, the bowels
are unburdened, the headache leaves,
that dull. .'dopey,"' want-to-crawl-
down-a-hole feeling disappears, energy.

pep" and appetite return and you
find yourself entirely, completely re-
ieved.
There is no better proof of the
great value of Natures Remedy for
biliousness and constipation than the
fact that more than one million Mr.
Tablets are used every day,-more
than five million boxes sold every
year.
If you've not already done so,
Aget a 25c box of Natures Rem.
edy (NR Tablets) and take the
:. first tablet tonight. If your
/ constipation is stubborn or per-
sistant, continue to take one
each night for a week or so.
Then note how you feel. Your bow
els will be as regular as clock work,
and you'll find yourself in better
shape physically, mentally, every way
than you've been in many a day.
After that you need not take medicine
every day. An occasional Mr. Tablet
to keep your system in good condi-
ton will be sufficient, and you can
always feel your best. Remember it
is easier and cheaper to keep well than.
to get well. Just try it.
Natures Remedy (NR Tablets) Is
sold, guaranteed and recommended by
your druggist.

Tombstone, Ariz.-The first day Of
court In the trials Of 30 men, charged
with kidnapping in connection with the
deportation OF 1918 striking copper
miners and their sympathizers from
Bisbee, Arizona, in 1917, ended abrupt
ly Monday when County Attorney
Robert N. French declared he was
considering dismissing the charges
against three defendants because of
absent witnesses.
Indications are that the defense will
ask separate trials for practically all
the defendants.
The state charges the defendants
with putting into effect kidnapping
conspiracy to deprive the deportees of
their lawful rights. Besides the de-

cutting attorney that more than 1000
persons participated in the deporta-

later the deportees were cared for in

PROSECUTOR ALLEGES THAT
: NEW6ERRY SPENT IMMENSE
SUMS FOR ELECTION.
Declares That Money Freely Changed
Hands, More Being Spent in
Forty-eioht Hours Than the
Laws Permitted for Campaign.

Grand Rapids, Mich.--An outline Of
what the government expects 10 prove
against Truman ii. Newberry, United
States senator. and his I23 associates,
charged with conspiracy in connection
with the 1918 senatorial campaign,
WAS started in the federal court Mon
day by Frank ID. Daley, special assist
ant attorney general.
Throughout his address Mr.. Daley
stressed the money which the govern
ment alleges was spent i'm violation OF
the law limiting campaign expenses.
He said Milton Oakman was hired as
manager of the Detroit campaign 'at
an enormous and staggering salary
amounting to thousands Of dollars"
He charged that when the campaign
started the Newberry organization
launched into an orgy of spending"
and spoke Of great heaps and piles
OF currency, which, he said, were
visible at the Detroit and Grand Rapids
headquarters.
'The evidence will show" he shout
ed, shat this organization spent more
money an average every fOrty-eight
hours than the laws of the United
States permit for an entire campaign"
Mr.. DALEY said the money went for
automobiles and halls, workers at the
polls. votes, banquets. liquor, cigars
and flowers. He charged that some
custodians of money used 1t to pay
personal debts. There was also, he
said, a system of gratuities. A $50
bill was placed In book so that it
could be found by one citizen, and a
banker was given $500 for his influ-
ence, the prosecutor charged.
"They employed men to work par
ticularly among railroad unions," said
Mr.. Daley. He said special agents
were hired to work among the Indians,
lumberjacks, negroes, factory workers
and sailors on the Great Lakes.

WILSON APPEALS
FOR THREE NATIONS
URGES CONGRESS TO GRANT
CREDIT TO POLAND, AUSTRIA
AND ARMENIA.
Declares We Should Not Withhold
From Starving People Of Three
Nations Small Proportion Of
Our Surplus Food Supply.

shington.-President Wilson on
january %. through Secretary Glass,
renewed the appeal to congress to
grant credits of S150,OOO,OO0 for Po-
land, Austria and Armenia to alleviate
conditions which threaten moral and
material chaos" in those countries.
President Wilson's letter addressed
to Mr. Glass follows:
with considerable regret l have
noticed from the press that congress
is delaying the granting of authority
for the extension of prompt and gen
erOus relief to the stricken portion of
Europe, the urgency and Importance of
which, especially in respect to Poland,
Austria and Armenia, you have fully
explained to the ways and means COM
mittee. 1t is unthinkable to me that
we should withhold from those people
who are in such mental and physical
distress the assistance which can be
rendered by making available on credit
small proportion of our export
able surplus Of food, which would al
leviate the situation.
Though l am sure that you must
have explained fully to the ways and
means committee the appalling situa-
ton in those parts of Europe where
men, women and children are now dy-
ing of starvation and the urgent ne.
cessity for prompt assistance, l beg
of you that you make another appeal.
l am Informed that through the pub
lished reports Of hearings before the
ways and mean committee, the con.
gress has now been furnished with in
controvertible facts showing the nee
essity for immediate affirmative
action.
Catastrophe Menaces.
"This prosperous republic ought not
to bear any part of the responsibility
for the moral and material chaos that
must result from an unwillingness on
our part to aid those less fortunate
than ourselves. Merely to husband
small portion Of our surplus, we can
not permit the happening Of this great
catastrophe"
