Rheumatism Comes
 From Tiny Pain Germs

First of all, get it firmly fixed in your, mind that all the liniments in the world have no effect what ever on Rheumatism.
 A very common form of Rheu- matism is caused by millions of tiny disease germs which infest the blood, The one and only sensible treatment, therefore. is one which cleanses the blood of these germs, and routs them entirely out of the circulation.

efficiency of so per cent Today it is 80 per cent
In 1890 transmissions of power 10 miles were con-
sidered marvellous. Today transmission of $50
miles is quite feasible. This great transmission
reach brings into consideration market that will
justify the vast expenditure required for the initial
installation on the st. Lawrence In my opinion
the application of present-day standard engineering
practice to the St. Lawrence will result in the gen.

"Another thing-this project will relieve the coal
situation It is greatly in the interest of the United
States to that Canada is relieved from her pres
ent necessity of purchasing coal in the United
States. The development of 6,500,O00 horsepower
will substitute 65000,000 tons of coal per in
the zone easily within transmission distance. The
saving of this coal in the United States and Canada
will reduce the price of coal to the household
sumer and to remaining steam-power consumers
"Many honest friends of the Erie canal are afraid
that the improvement of the St. Lawrence will re-
duce the amount of freight handled by the canal.
The great trouble with the Erie canal today, with
out the St. Lawrence Improvement, is that it has no
justifyng tonnage through it, If you can make
available for industry all along the 1856 miles Of
the length of the Erie canal cheap electrical power
(and by cheap mean cheap it can be had from
Niagara Falls), then you will have in such faci-
lty, together with cheap navigation in a country
thirsty for industrial expansion, amount of
business in actual tonnage of raw-materials-in and
nufactured-material-out that will make the
whole canal zone great big industrial success in
stead of the apology that it now is"
Mr.. Cooper's statement shows some of the rea-
sons why eastern business interests, which have
been blocking the St. Lawrence river Improvement,
are boosting for it. It helps explain, too why
the state of New York adopted the plan of state
owned and operated grain elevators to keep it's
share of export grain business.
The st. Lawrence river improvement plans are
now being considered by an international commits
sion, consisting of three members from the United
States and three from Canada. This commission
recently concluded series of hearings and within
a short time will make it's report.

Great Lake points and Europe.
At present northwestern grain destined for
Europe moves to large extent by the expensive
rail routes to New York, where it is loaded onto
for his wheat naturally has the expensive rail
freghts deducted.
Since the railroads have been returned to private
ownership and radical advances have been allowed
in all freight rates there is than ever
for the northwestern farmer to be anxious for the
opening of the all-water route.
For years the completion of this route has been
held up by the objections of the railroads and New
York exporters. The railroads objected because it
porters because they believed it would interfere
with their business, which now comes by railroad.
New York interests now have accepted the belief
that the proposed improvement is inevitable and
they laying their plans to retain share of the
business when the al-water route is opened. They
will do this by building two great state owned and
operated grain elevators, one at Oswego, on Lake
Ontario, the other at Brooklyn Between these
points canal barges will take the grain from the
Great Lakes through the Erie canal and Hudson
river to the ocean. ,... >.-
Hugh L. Cooper, a New York hydraulic engineer,
is now working upon plans for the Improvement Of
the st. Lawrence river the last link of the water
highway from Lake Superior to the Atlantic ocean.
1t is estimated that the cost of building dams and
locks that will eliminate rapids in the st. Lawrence
will be $1,300 100000. These dams will, however,
to the extent of 100000 horsepower.
Mr.. Cooper is the engineer who had charge of the
damming of the Mississippi river at Keolkuk, Iowa.
Besides opening the allwater route for the benefit
OF farmers and the Northwest generally, Mr. Cooper
believes that the st. Lawrence river improvements
will work immense advantage to the East, on
account of the cheap power which will be supplied.

Mr.. Cooper takes the stand that except in times
of financial stringency, like the present. there is
likely to be shortage of labor for some years. He
says, in an interview in the New York Times:
IMPROVEMENT OF RIVER
WILL SAVE LABOR AND COAL
"The farmer, the manufacturer and the general
public all need labor and therefore vtally inter-
ested in everything that will increase this supply.
Our modern civilization requires, normally, one
horsepower for every five of it's people. Every rs
hydro-electric horsepower saves for year the
labor of one man engaged in producing steam
misrepresentation we come to figure all the
pendtures from the mine to the ash heap. To
produce any given quantity of electrical energy,
using steam as prime mover, requires 70 times
as much man power as is required where hydro
electric power is the prime mover. Every hydro
electric horsepower saves, the average, 10 tons
Of coal per annun1.
"Ths is to show how the public is dependent upon
and interested in the most efficient development of
all undeveloped waterpower resources
Before this time development has been blocked
in the st. Lawrence by the laws of the United
States Also, in 1910, the ordinary water wheel had
The nonpartisan leader., 1921-01-10

The opening of the St. Lawrence river
will make available immense supplies
Of waterpower. That is the main rea-
son why eastern commercial interests,
which have heretofore blocked the i'm
provement,, are now swinging around
to favor it. Why should these natural
resources, belonging to the govern
ment, be developed and then turned
over to private exploiters? Why should
the government not develop this power
and give industrial and private con-
sumers the benefit of this undertaking
without padded profits? The looters
are making their plans for another
grab of natural resources. Let's stop it.

RENT COMPROMISE
may Be DEFEATED
BY SENATE ACTION
Proposed Extension Of Ball Act
For 13 Months Meets
Lively Opposition.

The compromise reached with re-
gard to the Ball rent act by the SEN
ate District Committee-a compromise
which limits its life to another thir-
teen months, or seven months from
next October-is hardly likely to be
enacted into law.
Dissatisfaction with the outcome of
the Senate deliberations on the subject
Is heard on all sides, and many per-
sons say II woul dhave been better fer
tension OF the act rather than limit
the extension to such a brief and in
conclusive period
As the result OF this feeling, II Is
probable that the House District Com
mittee either will refuse to extend
the law at all. or will insist upon at
least a two-year extension. Members
)of the local rent commission. and
dozens of tenants will request an ap-
{pearance before the oHuse committee
to protest against the action Of the
ASenate committee
The Senate compromise was reach =
cd as a result of the bitter opposition
of Senator King of Utah to any ex-
tension of the law. The latter in
executive session finally said he
would not file minority report IL
the extension were limited to seven
ffnonths- He did not promise to sup-
port the resolution, however. Sena-
tor Ball, rather than have a divided

SENATOR HARRELD
FAVORS FIRING
1858 IN D. c.
oklahoman Says Federal Work
ers Should Be Dropped Accord
ing to Established Quotas.
Hearken. Government workers,

Hearken, Government workers!
Do you know that the District OF
Columbia has 1896 employees on the
Feedral payroll, whereas, under the
civil service law fixing quotas ac-
cording to population, 1t is entitled
only to 1888?
1t is common knowledge that Mary
land has 2,223 workers in Uncle Sam 8
shops, being entitled only to GOT. Or
that Virginia has 2,507, with a right
to have only 96S?
These are facts, according to SEN
ator Harreld of Oklahoma, who wants
some change in this condition of af-
fairs right away. He thinks that dis
charges during the coming "defla-
ton of the Federal service should be
regulated on the quota basis.
In other words, the District. Mary
land and Virginia having employees
far in excess of their quotas, should
bear the brunt of practically all the
discharges, while the other States,
practically those short of their quo
tas, including Oklahoma, should not
suffer at all. His resolution Is now
before the Senate Civil Service Com
mittee, which will call upon the Civil
Service Commission for a report.
