rHe NAVY CONTROVERSY.

In the popular imagination the navy
renders its service on the high seas.
It is distinctly a sea fighting force
and not intended to function on land.
This may not be technically a cor
rect conception according to Admiral
Sims, but ID is one that is pretty well
fixed inthe minds of the people. All
Of the old sea dogs, heroes of the ma
yies.4 like Drake and Nelson and Paul
Jones and Perry and Farragut made
their names and achieved their fame
upon tho waves and not behind roll
top desks in some administration
building. E
For these reasons Admiral Sims
will not make much Roadway In his
criticism of Daniels, because the lat
ter preferred the men who went down
to the seas in ships to the lounge liz
ards in the distribution of the honors
or war. Unquestionably 1t was neces
sary that staff officers should remain
on shore aud direct certain. phases OF
naval operations, but 1t is going to be
mighty hard matter to convince the
fathers and mothers of the boys who
daily sailed through area infested by
the assasslus OF the deep that their
sons did not deserve more consider

sconsed in o bomb proof office build
Ing or spending their time attending

The navy functioned and functioned

cd 1t and did that job well. It did it
because Of its splendid personnel, be-
cause OF the bravery and devotion of
the men and officers who sailed the
seas, aud not because of the gentle
men in dress suits who spent their
time in wining aud dining and being
winued and dined. Sims is personal
ly peeved. His superior officer placed
o somewhat lighter estimate upon his
abilities than he did himself and he Is
petuiant and agrieved

NEWSPAPERS HARD HIT.

While the past year has been an ex
ceedingly profitable one for many
newspapers, as it was for many other
lines Of business. yet on the whole II
is doubtful whether it was a good
year for newspapers. There were
about 600 fewer newspapers in the
United States at the end Of 1919 than
there were at the beginning. The year
marked the passing of many of the
Oldest and in times past the greatest
dailieS In the country, Several daily
papers in small towns suspended o,
changed to weekly issues.
The high PRICE Of print paper and
other materials, the ever increasing
cost Of labor and the difiicnlty Of OBJ.
tanning It, have made the pathway
for the newspapers a very difficult
one. Only recently the St Louis Re-
bubble, one OF the oldest and in it's
time one Of the ablest papers In the
country, ceased publication. The New
York Herald and the Sun, papers
more than three.quarters of century
old, have been consolidated Today
st. Louis, city Of three-luarters Of
a irlollion people and Cleveland, a
city of half million, have but one
morning paper each. In a number of
cities OF size somewhat correspond.
ing to that of Columbia daily papers
have been forced to suspend during
the past two or three years. The
whole tendency in the newspaper field
is toward the elimination of papers,
through suspension or consolidation
and new ventures are exceedingly
rare and of very doubtful prospects.
Never in the history of the press
did it cost anything like ais much
money to pay operating expenses as
1t does today. During the past ten
years for example, the expenses of
The Herald have just about doubled.
For example, its bills for news SER
vice, for telephones and telegraph
tolls and for postage are more in the
course of year than its entire in
come from its weekly subscription list.
Fortunate are the people Of a com
rnunity or county where conditions
have been such that 1t. has been pos
sible for the local paper to improve
and develop, for without a live, en-

interests Of the public. it is impossl-

LANslMe,s. REFORMATION,

T. Evidently President Wilson was no
quite frank in his letter to Secretar!
OF State Lansing, demanding the lat
ters resignation. 1t would be Difficult,
I, to convince the intelligent people Of
America that there was any merit II
the very flimsy excuse given by the
President for his dismissal of the sec
rotary of state The President was
| desperately sick and forbidden by his
physicians to see the members Of his
| cabinet or to transact affairs of state
In this emergency with great prob
lens, like the coal strike, the railroad
situation and Mexican affairs, demand
Ing an immediate solution, 1t was per.
fectly natural that the heads of the
various departments should meet to-
gether and discuss affairs of state.
Several of them suggested this fact
to Mr.. Lansing as the ranking mem
Der and he informally called the cab,
met together. just what violence
he did to the constitution by taking
this course cannot be imagined. The
truth about the matter Is that the
President and Lansing were not In
agreement over the peace treaty and
the cabinet meetings were merely an
excuse for the extraordinary and pee
wish course of the chief executive.
If Lansing had been man of indie
pendence. and of pride, a really able
and big man, he would have resigned
from the cabinet year ago. In fact
he would never have accepted appoint
rnent therein, because he has never
been, except during the Presidents
illness, more than an .amenuensis to
the chief executive.
Mr.. Lansing's testimony before the
senate committee on foreign relations
disclosed the fact that he and other
delegates from America to the peace
conference had been ignored and
practically snubbed by President Will
son. AS a matter of fact the Presi.
dent, and the President alone, repre-
scented this nation at the peace con-
ference. House, Lansing, Bliss and
White were mere figure heads. That
is one of the reasons why the Presi-
dent is having such a difficult task
getting the treaty ratified.
Wilson is like many other great and
strong men. He does not summon re-
ally able men to his confidence, be-
cause he will brook no opposition.
His cabinet has never been a strong
one, for in the very nature of the
man he would not call to his aid those
who might interpose objections to
his viii. The President is somewhat
imperious by nature and with his
marvellous successes in international
politics has grown more so.

be placed upon the services that they

thing in life. There are countless
thousands of the veterans of the great
war who would not for all the money
in the world exchange places with
those who stayed at home and profited
through their sacrifices.
An increase in the public debt Of
the nation at this time would be bad
for many reasons and that would be
necessary were the bonus suggested

ton to- add to the present burden Of
taxation to the extent suggested. A
further flotation of bonds would mean
additional imitation of credit with it's
usual encouragement to speculation

Eating meat regularly eventually
produces kidney trouble in some
form or other. says a well-knoWn
authority, because the uric acid in
meat eXcitcs the kidneys. they be-
come overworked; get sluggish;
clog up and cause all sorts of dis
tress, particularly backache and
misery in the kidney region; rheu-
matte twinges. severe headaches,
acid stomach, constipation. torpid
liver, sleeplessness, bladder and
urinary irritation
The moment your back hurts or
kidneys aren't acting right. or If
bladder bothers you, get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any good
pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in
glass Of water before breakfast
for a few days and your kidneys
will then 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 clogged kid
neys and stimulate them to normal
activity: also to neutraliZe the
acids in the urine so it no longer
initiates, thus ending bladder dis
orders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone;
makes delightful effervescent
water drink which millions of
men and women take now and then
to keep the kidneys and urinary
organs clean. thus avoiding serious
kidney disease.
