CHANCE TO GET DOWN TO
BUSINESS

The Tariff Commission, with thirty
odd matters before it under the fex-
ihle provision of the tariff law, has
not been making Roadway of late. it
Is said, difficulties being attributed to
difference of opinion. one faction of
which would have the commission
take on a wider scope of activity,
while the other thinks such procedure
would result in biting off more than
the commission might properly chew.
William S. Culbertson is represen-
tative Of the former and Thomas o.
Marvin of the latter and President
Coolidge has just reappointed the lat
ter for a term of twelve years. 1t is
to be hoped that the commission will
now get down to business. To quote
from the Public Ledger There are
too many. more or less. ornamental
debating societies in Washington

WORKING OUT WELL

It Is stated on what appears to be
excellent authority that the Presi-
dent doesn't think General Dawes is
involving this country by what he is
doing as an expert for the Reparation
Commission.
The General, not being a diplomatic
representative, could say:
"As an individual. read with
shame and humiliation the outpour-
ings of the American nationalistic
demagogiies who undertake to lee
ture Europe in order to lift them
selves into some petty office or to
maintain their political popularity"
Had he been an accredited repre-
sentative OF our government he could
not properly have said that and some
OF the rejoicing thereat would have
been missed.
These things should give pause TO
those who are criticising the govern
ment because we have not sent dip
iomatic representatives. when the
truth could not have been spoken so
openly. when we could have been
bargained with over debts owed to
us and otherwise involved as we do
not intend to be and rs there Is no
need of our being.
Just how greatly Europe enjoys
Dawes frankncss may be open to
question. although there seems to be
little disposition to criticize him as
yet. As a matter of fact Europe
perceives fully and conclusively the
fact that II she is to settle up this
matter OF reparations and keep out
Of bankr' ptcy she has need OF the
confidence of American money lend
crs. Hence the selection of a finan-
cier in whom the money lenders and
the money borrowers have confidence,
hence General Dawes and his license
to call spade a spade. to tell Europe
the truth. the need Of which has long
been apparent.
Considering this method 1t would
seem that q fair minded person could
properly arrive at the conclusion that
It Is proving an excellent one.

KIDNEYS
BY D2INKINC
LOTS OF water

Eating too much rich food may
produce kidney trouble in some
form. says a well-known authority,
because the acids created excite the
kidneys. Then they become over
worked. get sluggish. clog. up and
cause all sorts of distress. particu-
larly backache and misery in the
kidney region. rheumatic twinges
severe headaches. acid stomach, con-
stipation. torpid liver. sleeplessness,
bladder and urinary irritation.
The moment your back hurts or
kidneys aren't acting right. or If
bladder bothers you. begin drinking
lots of good water and also get about
-four ounces of Jad Salts from any
good pharmacy: take a tablespoon
full in a glass of water before break
fast for few days and your kidneys
may then act fine. This famous salts
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice. combined with lithia,
and has been used for years to flush
clogged kidneys and stimulate them
TO activity: also to neutralize the
acids in the system so that they no
longer irritate. thus often relieving
bladder disorders.
Jad Salts cannot injure anyone:
makes delightful effervescent
Whitewater drink which millions of
men and women take now and then
to help keep the kidneys and urin-
airy organs clean. thus often avoid
ing serious kidney disorders BY all
means have your physician examine

wizards, grand dragons. kleagles and

mean.
They fade from the picture and fit
over the horizon. stealthily seeking
salvation-for the rest of the world.
All of which refers to the GUST

ADVOCATE or SEA LEVEL
CANAL

The Panama canal was opened to
navigation Aug. Is. 1914. although the
official proclamation Of its completion
was deferred until 1920. The average
width Of this canal IL $40 feet. mini
mum width 900 feet 1t IL nearly NJ
ty miles in length and a ship requires
from ten to twelve hours to pass
through II. Few II any foresaw the
growth Of traffic which was to ensue.
Colonel Buneau Varilla, a friend OF
DeIesseps, and q famous engineer
and who, as director general OF the
Panama canal company. was con-
nected with the sale Of French inter-
ests to the United States Govern
ment, has come to this country to
urge the building Of sea level canal.
He calls attention to the fact that In
1928. the traffic amounted to twenty
four million tons. thus exceeding In
the short period since 1t was opened
the traffic Of the Suez canal In its
nifty NTH year by a million tons.
He says the sea level canal will cost
O. billion dollars and declares this will
be earned by the tolls from the lock
canal. that the Transformation could
be made without delaying traffic for
ten minutes. He says he advocated
the construction Of O sea level canal
81 years ago. He would build such
canal as could be worthy Of the
name. Straits Of Panama, which
would be free from earthquake con-
WILSON'S and would not require fort
iications.
A canal to measure up to such
qualifications in that region would
indeed be huge undertaking. Even
II the idea Of sea canal was orig
mated by Varilla he was not alone
in championing 1t. In the beginning
there was much conflict of opinion
respecting the kind of canal. The
President appointed a committee to
consider the plans and proposals. a
board consisting Of eight American
members and five members from for
eign countries. In January, 1906. this
board reported. The report favored
a sea level canal ~ n vote Of eight to
fve. After the receipt Of these reports
tho minority report including plans
for a lock canal. the Isthmian Canal
Commission decided in favor OF a lock
canal. although one member favored
the sea level plan.

Redemption from Degradation Plank
(Chicago Tribune)

(Chicago Tribune)
Former President Wilson tele-
graphed to the Jackson Day dinner OF
Pittsburgh Democrats that the party
was intrusted with the redemption
Of the nation from degradation"
! Here is a, beautiful plank for the
Democratic national platform: 1--WE
view with alarm the degradation of
the American people and their cow
ardly betrayal of the cause of hui
mainly. We regard the American
people as the scum Of the earth. hy-
enas in soul and jackals in mind"
With that plank the Democratic
party can sweep Europe as n prairie
fire and the candidate can be elected
president of the League Of Nations.
After 1t has been adopted by the
resolutions committee of the conven-
ton We'll probably find Mr.. McAdoo
and Mr.. Underwood and various 9TH
ers earnestly supporting Mr.. Cox for
nomination. He did 1t the other time
and why not now? He's used to 1t,
case hardened and indurated. a per-
feet candidate on a perfect platform
rallying an enthusiastic country to
the fiery doctrine: Yes. we are de-
graded people"

Immunity Worth What il Costs

(Waterville SentineD
Those who are disposed to criticise
the granting of immunity in the
Aroostook rum cases overlook the
fact that the best way to dry up a
spring is to get at the source and not
bother with the little tributaries far
ther down. If those who were given
immunity had been punished, as they
may have observed. II would not have
interfered much with the operation of
the ring. There would have been
many ready to take their places and
the system would have gone on oper-
ating little disturbed. BY releasing
the small fry. however. the ring has
been disrupted and 1t will be a long
time probably before anything like 1t
Is tried again. All OF which Is OBJ
vious.
1t has always been easy in this
state to make a fine record for en-
forcement on paper without Interior
ing seriously with the main rum
business. Small dealers can be hailed
into court in large numbers, making
a great showing on the books, and
the main supply of liquor undisturb-
ed. This has been done q great deal
in the past and has deceived a great
many good people. Real enforcement
however, Is OF an alIOSetner OIIeTent
brand. That goes to headquarters
and while ignoring the small fry gets
at them effectively by drying up the
source of their supplies. Immunity
has to be used occasionally to do this
and like checkers. it's giving away a
few men for a chance to sweep the
board.
Effective raids on a large scale can
hardly be conducted without stool
pigeons and rum ring leaders are
rarely convicted without the use of
immunity. 1t can hardly be doubted
1t is most worth while 10 land the big
fellows and thus silence the criticism
that prohibition Is a rich mans law
anyhow.
II we do not want prohibition but
regulation Of the rum business the
old style will serve best and we shall
get along in a very iadylike fashion
without immunity, spoilers, large
raids or any other coarse methods. IL
we want real prohibition we must ex-
pect something rougher and more
red blooded.
