The orators for the two conventions
are being selected. Former governor
Willis of Ohio will place Senator
Harding in nomination in Chicago, and
Charles S. Willis of California will do
the same for Senator Johnson. In San
Francisco former Governor Shallen-
berger of, Nebraska will present the
name of Hitchcock, G. f. x. O'Brien
Of Jersey City that Of Edwards, Claude
Porter will nominate e. T. Meredith,
John H. Bigelow will place Palmer be-
fore the convention, and DR.. BUrris
jenkins of Kansas City will name Nc
Adoo.
Samuel Gompers took his whack at
politics last week. devoting long ar
ticle to denunciation of congress and
the executive departments for "incom-
petence on the cost Of living ISSUE"
and calling for an overturn in congress
and the defeat Of labor's enemies and
election of its friends. He demands
immediate effective action to prevent
continued increases in the cost Of liv-
Ing" and at the same time says
wages, both in private employment
and in government service, must be
adjusted upward. There must be nc
more such legislation asHthe Esch-
Cummins railroad law and the Kansas
court of industry law, asserts Mr..
Gompers, and existing laws like those
must be repealed. His statements
concerning wages and legislation
sound inconsistent, but no one will
quarrel with his severe remarks about
profteering, unless it be the profiteers
themselves. The labor chief had some
hard things to say about Attorney
General Palmer's efforts to curb that
evil.
The profiteers were dealt several
blows during the week. The federal
circuit court of appeals in New York
upheld the Lever act as constitutional,

clothiers, affirming the decision Of
Judge Hazel, who refused to enjoin q
district attorney from proceeding
against the company on profteering
charges. A federal grand jury, also
Ia New York. indicted the American
Wooden company and William M.
Wood, It's president, for violating the
Lever act by proflteering in selling
cloth at unjust and unreasonable
prices. The government attorneys
said it developed that the company
was receiving 80 per cent profit above
cost, although Mr.. Wood claimed the

g ! TORIES
Puny batting has been the Giants
biggest handicap.
Joe Kelley says that Willie Keller
was the best bunter in baseball.
1t Is not very difficult for an umpire
to find an excuse for doing what he
wishes.
Jack Quinn Of the Yanks says he'll
be as effective without the splitter as
with 1t.
Connie Mack has sent one of his
catching prospects, Styles, back to the
Atlanta club.
Bert Kinney Of the Athletics Is de-
veloping into one of the best pitchers
in the business.
Manager John J. McGraw of the
Giants has been active in baseball
thirty-one years.
Reuther, lucky last year, seems to
have become heir of the jinx that tor
mented Jimmy Ring.
Johnny Dobbs declares he is serious
in his announcement that this will be
his last year in baseball.
The Brantford Mint league club has
sold Catcher Phil Carroll to Sioux
City of the Western league.
Jack Wisner, a lengthy youth, has
world Of speed. He's just wild enough
TO make the hitters stand back.
Players come and players go, but
Johnny Austin keeps on holding down
third for the st. Louis Browns.
Dowd, formerly on Connie Mack's
payroll, seems to have cinched the
middle sack on the Bison infield.
Some of the star hurlers were un-
kindly treated in the opening games,
but their revenge will come later.
Arthur Devlin, coaching Fordham
college, is said to have wonderful
young pitcher in lad named Cullo-
ton.
AL Schacht starred as a shutout
twirler last season at Jersey City and
he is showing the same form In the
majors.
Casey Stengel Is showing as much
vim in a Philadelphia uniform as he
displayed when with the Robins or
Pirates.
Ross Young has invented new bunt
which consists Of popping the ball
about three inches over the third base
mans brow.
The Athletics wore white elephants
last year. This year they are green;
but elephants are all Fight unless
they are pink.
Even the college mines are kissing
the splitter" goodnight. The West
Virginia university team has ruled 1t
out as Objectionable.
The Milwaukee club is strong for
use of home talent. At least three
local boys, Lutzke, Armstrong and
Hauser, are making good on the job
with the Brewers.
Babe Adams deserves credit for quit
ting the old Missouri farm, even
though wheat is away up. A guy who
can pitch the way Babe does has no
place among the hicks.
Morris Rath is Hitting terrifcally.
Looks as If he might realize his great
ambition-to hit over 300 for whole
season in the big league.
Gradually the season is getting un-
der way. Meyers, center fielder for
Brooklyn, punched Oscar Dugey, Bos-
ton coach, on the nose because Of bit
of ribald chatter.

season affairs, such as the world series
contests in 1919. His usual total of
baseball contests each year is close to
ITO. During the short term of foot
ball Mr.. Quigley crowds in 20 or more
gridiron games, frequently working
three or four times a week. He does
most of this officiating in Kansas, Ne
braska, Oklahoma, Iowa and Texas.

The Johnson people in the Chicago
headquarters were the first to put
forth a definite claim as to the num-
Der of votes with which their candi-
date would enter the convention. Their
assertion is that Hiram VIII have 236
delegates pledged to stick with him
to the last ditch. An interesting
guess at what the first ballot in the
Coliseum will look like is made by

paign of the New Jersey governor.
Mr.. Edwards, he said, hasn't had a
drink in 80 years, and Is standing
for the principles of personal liberty
and state sovereignty. SO far as the
committee could discover, there is no
McAdoo fund, and only about $4,000
has been raised for the Cox CAM
paign.
Sober thinking men will scarcely
find anything scandalous in the facts
elected by the senate committee, but
they reveal the unfortunately large ex-
penditures that are considered neces-
sary in our pre-convention campaigns
under the primary system. They also
show that Michigan is an expensive
state, the fight for presidential pref
erence vote there costing almost as
much as the last senatorial campaign.
The contest in Ohio was almost as
costly. In these and some other
states large sums were expended by
local organizations that do not ap-
pear in the figures submitted by the
national managers.

QUIT MEAT WHEN
KIDNEYS BOTHER
Take a Glass of Salts if Your Back
Hurts or Bladder Troubles
You.

No man or woman who eats meat regu-
larly can make mistake by flushing the
kidneys occasionally, says a well-known
authority. Meat forms uric acid which
exctes the kidneys, they become over
worked from the strain, get sluggish and
fail 10 filter the waste and poisons from
the blood, then we get sick Nearly all
rheumatism, headaches, liver troubles,
nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and
urinary disorders come from sluggish
kidneys.
The moment you feel dull ache in the
kidneys or your back hurts or if the urine
is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, ir-
regular OF passange or attended by sem
sation Of scalding, stop eating meat and
get about four ounces of Jad Salts from
any pharmacy; take tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast and in a
few days your kidneys will act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for generations
to flush and stimulate the kidneys, also to
neutralize the acids in urine SO it no longer
causes irritation, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot
iniure; makes a delightful efferves cent
lithia-water drink which everyone should
take now and then to keep the kidneys
clean and active ard the blood pure,
thereby avoiding serious kidney compli-
cations.

may rub shoulders with jockeys, book
makers and the general run of raeegoers
at the track in the afternoon, but when
he returns to the palace in the evening he
