A MERCHESS JUDGE
One Who Shows No Favor.

A mericless Judge is Father Time.
Before him the weak and the wanting
go to the wall. Only the truth can
stand. For years the following state
ment from a Maysville resident has
withstood this sternest Of all tests.
Mrs. M. Holiday, FL East Second
street, Maysville, says: II have been
greatly benefited by Doan's Kidney
Pills and l have reason to recommend
them. At times my back has become
lame and ached Just over my kidneys.
My kidneys were irregular in action
and I was dizzy. When ever I have
used Doan's Kidney Pills l always get
relief from these complaints. / GER

edy. always get Doan's at Wood G
Sons Drug Store"
The above statement was given No.
vember 16, 1916, and on November %,
1920, Mrs. Holiday said: II am glad
to say my kidneys have given me no
trouble since using Doan's Kidney
Pills four years ago. My general
health has been good. / gladly renew

HENRY \. HUNTS
PLAN FOR PEACE
Former Mayor and Member OF Labor
B0nrd Urges Railroads and
Unions Make Concessions

Henry II. Hunt, former Mayor Of
Cincinnati and former member OF the
Railroad Labor Board representing
the public, gives the following article
In Cincinnati Post OF Tuesday
The public group on the Railroad
Labor Board has made n sound and
reasonable suggestion as a basis for
preventing the threatened railroad
strike.
II Is that.
l: The railroads Immediately re-
duce freight and passenger rates. so
as to give the public the benefit OF
the wage cut OF approximately - per
cent. ordered by the Railroad Labor
Board In July.
q That railroads after the reduced
rates are In effect, file with the Labor
Board a proceeding for further reduc-
ton in wages, II they believe reduc-
ton in cost of living and other factors
determining fair wages would justify
such action.
What Unions should do:
II the railroads will do this the
unions should suspend their strike
order until the decision of the Rail-
road Labor Board on the railroads
application for further wage reduc-
ton is made
This course is consistent with law,
with fairness and with the public IN
terest
A state of war instead of co-opera-
ton exists and has existed for lon!
time between railroad managers and
labor unions. That this state of war
exists is due, believe, to the bourbon
attitude of few executives of power
full railroads who have been able to
control action of the Executive Board
as a whole.
These men are obsessed with the
idea that it is their duty, both to their
and to the country to break
down labor organizations. Pursuant
to this obsession, these executives

TIiIFT HABIT Is EASY
TO ACQUIRE, SAYS EDITOR
Richard II. Rdmonds, Of the Manufac.
turers Record, Believes In Buying
Savings Stamps.

Richard II. Edmonds editor OF the
Manufacturer Record. Is the author
OF this editorial sermon on tho habi
OF systematic saving:
THE War Savings Stamp Ia one
way through which every man, wo'
man and child can give expression Il
his patriotism. The War Savings
Stamp appeals 10 the boy and the CIR
to save their pennies as well as to the
man and woman Of small income and
to those OF larger income. None are
too poor, none too rich to cooperate
with the Government through the
making Of War Savings Stamp habit
a national habit.
1T has been well said that we get
a habit and then the habit gets US.
II we get the habit Of buying War
Savings Stamps the habit soon gets us
and enables ns to largely increase our
savings to our good and to the welfare
Of the Nation.
We saw an act and reap a habit.
We saw habit and reap character.
We SOW a character and reapa destiny
an the home, in the pulpit, in the
the school, nthe shop, on the farm,
we should talk War Savings Stamps;
we should think in terms Of War Saw
lngs Stamps, and help to create such
q habit of War Savings Stamp buying
rs to make II universal custom In
doing this we should be helping the
Government and we would be
the moral forces Of the
Nation by encouraging people to save
the money which is now often wasted
In trifles which help neither body nor
soul. The War Savings Stamp habit
when once It becomes universal
among young and old, rich and poor,
will become great national blessing,
and in sowing an act by buying War
Savings Stamps we will shape the
lestiny of our country and of civiliza-
ion"

sist now. there 10 grave danger that
their organizations will be destroyed.
Action OF the executives In Febru-
AIRY In asking the Labor Board arbi-
trarily TO reduce wages without war
rant OF law; che Pennsylvania Rail-
roads disregard OF the decision OF tho
Labor Board concerning the method
OF negotiating ned railroad rules; ac-
ton OF the Erie the st. Louis a South
western and othe railroads In arbi-
trarily dlsobeylng the law In reducing
wages, are among the unlawful and
Bolsheyistic acts which have given la
Dor leaders reason to believe the rail-
road managers will not proceed in a
fair and lawful manner.
The public should make every ef-
fort to sustain the transportation act
and the powers OF the Labor Board. II
should bring such pressure on the
Pennsylvania Il. II. and other rail-
roads which have violated the act as
to compel them to obey 1t. II the
railroads will obey the decisions of
the board the employees also will obey
them, believe.
Railroad executives should be
brought to see 1t is to their interest as
well as the public's to adopt a policy |
of cooperation instead Of war. This |
is yet possible. Many railroad man.
ayers have accomplished It, but they
have not been able to control the
bourbons among them.
The president. the secretary Of COM
merce and the attorney general by OBJ
tanning conferences with both the
bourbon and liberal railroad execu-
lives. could bring about full compli-
ance with the law by the railroads.
The labor organizations then would
withdraw their strike order and await
he processes .of the Railroad Labor
Board.
Large economies still are possible
N railroad management. The greatest
economy would be substitution of CO.
operation for war.
