Standards which the citizens can invoke
against both malevolence and caprice
1t was realized at the beginning
that the courts Of justice We're organ
IZed with peculiar advantages to ex-
empt them from the baleful influence
OF faction We have given, as was
said by Mr.. EvartS, "A new eXaltation to
the power ui the judiciary. We have
llttcu up the principle of the law, We
have exalted II to the point that ju-
dicial reason in the forum of forensic
discussion Shall be the final arbiter of
the rights OF the people against their
congress, against their magistrates and
between the states and The nation
that all shall OBEY
This delicate and difficult duty has
been we'll discharged, and notwlth-
StaEdins repeated efforts to undermine
this jurisdiction of the supreme court

thority i'll the Interpretation and appli-
cation oil the constitution, it retains
It's hold upon the confidence of the
people. l believe that the attacks upon
1t once more renewed will again fan.
But ii we have maintained the
tradition SO happily received of an
independent Judiciary. 1t is only be-
cause we have also conserved the
tradition of an independent bar not
servlle to authority but always keen
for the defense OF individual rights
against abuses of power, intent upon
giving every man his day in court
and ever Watchful OF judicial arbiters
lest they lose their footing in the
slippery path of the law"
THE important, indeed the indis
pensable thing is that method should
rnnfriI-a6 haf
ton should be such, that decisions
can be rendered.
All decisions will be futile unless
the arrangements ultimately made
satisfy the investing public. We APP
preciate the difficulties, but we be-
lieve that the Dawes plan opens the
path OF confidence and prosperity.
For that reason we are deeply In
terested in its prompt execution"
1T does not matter that this aid
is not given by the government" Mr..
Hughes continued. Il may give 1t as
my conviction that had we attempt
ed to make Americas contribution to
the recent plan of adjustment a gov
ernmental matter, we should have
been involved in a hopeless debate
and would have no adequate action.
We should have been beset with
demands, objections, instructions.
This is not the way to make an
American contribution to economic
revival.
You have the Dawes plan and you
have had the participation of Ameri-
can experts with the liberty of con-
structive effort which was essential
because 1t was undertaken in the
only way which success was pos
slble. When you deal with economic
rehabilitation, you doubtless have in
mind such contribution as America
may be able to give in disinterested
advice. and later in participation in
the absolutely essential loan.

State Convention
Plans Am. Legion
Progressing Rapidly

Plans for the State Convention OF
the American Legion which will be
held in this city, starting Monday,
August % and lasting three days, are
progressing rapidly, according to re-
ports of various committeeman at the
regular weekly meeting of the Legion
last evening. Plans for entertaining
the 1900 or more Legionaires who
will come from every section of the
state to this city, are about complete.
The matter of securing rooms is
still giving the housing committee
some trouble and anyone in Water
vile who will have rooms to let dur
ing ithe week of the convention are
asked to notify Harry Drawn, chair
man of the housing committee at
once.
The City will have a big welcome
to Waterville Legionaires" sign in
Postoffice square during the conven-
ton and three signs, will be placed
on the Oakland, Augusta and Bangor
roads respectively. calling attention
to the fact that the convention is
being held in the city. Arrangements
for automobiles and trolleys for
transportation of the visitors to the
Fair grounds on the first day Of the
fair are under way and the local post
on this date. Tuesday noon, August
26. big out of door feed will be
served on the banks of the kennebec
River back of the Colby College Cam
pus. the menu of which has not been
decided on.
Next Sunday many members of the
local post plan to attend the kenne-
bee County Council at Togus and al
who wish to make the trip should
notify Harry Brown at once so as to
make sure about transportation.
The big event really starts on
Monday, August % which is Ameri-
can Legion Day at the Central Maine
Fair at Waterville and all Legionaires
and Auxiliary members will be ad
mitted without charge to the fair
grounds.
The Convention itself will be in
session Tuesday and Wednesday,
August IS and -. Waterville always
extends itself to entertain visitors
and Legionaires will be particularly
welcome and every effort made to
Show the service men that their
presence in Waterville is a matter of
pleasure to the community and its
citizens.
The purpose of the Convention is
to develop spirit in the particular or
gdnization rather than any particular
accomplishments of the convention
itself.
This has been a great year of ac-
complishment for the Legion. The
Bonus Bill was passed, the Reed
Johnson bill enacted by Congress.
Senator David A. Reed of Pennsyl-
vania and Royal c. Johnson of South
Dakota and the National Legislative
Committee Of the organization are
entitled to much credit for the
amendments provided by the new
law. This bill affects over $4,000
disabled service veterans.
The Department Convention brings
out forcible such accomplishments
and National Commander Quinn will
be present to give the Legion Mes
sage. Legionaires are asked to turn

There Is much speculation as TO
which of the many prominent local
druggists will secure the covetec
prize. Ever since Mr.. Thorburn's
presence in the city became known
there has been the keenest rivalry for
the agency.
In an interview Mr.. Thorburn said
the successful firm will probably be
announced tomorrow. las the karnak
agency is an important factor in the
life of the whole city We naturally try
to exercise the utmost care in its Sc
lection and to give the qualifications
of every applicant painstaking con-
sideration," he stated.
II should like to thank the people
of this city as well as the druggists
themselves for the great interest they
have shown in Karnak. 1t shows that

parts of the country are to be dupli-
Gated here"

Results Guaranteed. ~
"Now here is something I wish 20
tell the people OF your city" contin-
ued Mr.. Thorhurn. II want to say as
emphatically as possible that each
and every bottle OF Karnak carries
with it an iron-clad money back
guarantee. There are no "ifss or
lands" about II. IL a person does
not find karnak OF real benefit, II

limited confidence in this great sys-
tenn building medicine. and no drug
Sist would undertake the Distribution
of the preparation under this policy
unless he. too. had unlimited con-
fidence in it. A guarantee could not
lie stronger"
The announcement of the name OF
the local agent is awaited with much
interest by both the drug trade and
the public at large. 1t is understood
that 1t is the policy of those respon-
sible for the distribution Of karnak
to have only one Thoroughly reliable
and centrally located agent and that
the award usually goes to the leading
druggist in each city.
This protects both the public and
Earnak against imitation and subsu-
ution," explained NJ. Thorhurn.
