JOINT APPEAL THEY WON'T LET US FIGHT, SOis issued! fefcslk (Continued from pace one)

Bftrr an injurious delay of four i:"mhs. the amended draft act. without which we could not have rut 2 more millions at the front next July. The Speaker, the lender and the chairman of the military committee of the democratic house opposed the original draft with nil the viRor rossiMe. It was saved, find so our country's cause was saved by the republican minority. "Z. The new senate must approve, by t n o-thirds ote. the terms of peace. Those terms should be settled not by one mar. only, it is one man control we are fighting in this war to suppress. If the peace treaty is to be useful in the future, it must be approved by the preat body of the American people. The presiient has indicated a willingness to make peace by negotiation. "He has not demanded, as he miftht l.nve done in three lines, that which the American people demand, an unconditional surrender. His exchange of notes with Germany has caused a deep concern among ovir people lest h may Vy his parleying with her. concede her a peace around a council table Instead of a sentence from a court. The fourteen points which the president and Germany assume that they have already i treed upon, as so frenerl and vague that such a peace would be no treaty at but only a rroctocol to an intcrmin- ! discussion. The president is without final power to bind the United S-fttes to those fourteen points. although his language does not suggest it. Still less has he power to bind our Ti"b!e allies. We do not know that thi'se points Include all that our allies may justly demand or do not concede something they may justly 'withhold. 3 "or what they nave done for us. we owe our allies the highest goo.', faith. It is of capital importance, therefore thtt we should now elect a senate which shall be independent enough to interpret and enforce the will of the American people in the matter of this world peace and not merely submit to the uncontrolled will of Mr. Wilson. "Nor ran the attitude of the House of Krreseniatives be ignored in this 1- -ice. livery affirmative obligation binding the United States in that treaty rust be performed by the House as part r :" the congress. The present democratic majority in the House has been subservient to the will of the president )!i every respect except when critical issues in the conduct of the war have been involved. The president has not hesitated publicly to discipline those of his party who have disagreed with him j-nd the lesson has had Its effect. A new democratic congress, with its old leaders thus chastened, will offer no oppoMti.'ii to his will. They will not be ( nsulted in the future more than in

SYRUP OF PIGS FOR CROSS, SICK FEVERISH CHILD If little stomach is sour, liver torpid or bowels clogged.

Mothers can rest easy after giving "California Syrup of Figs," because in a few hours all the clogged-up waste, sour bile and fermenting food gently moves out of the bowels, and you have a well, playful child again. Children simply will not take the time from play to empty their bowels, and they become tightly packed, liver gets sluggish and stomach disordered. When cross, feverish, restless, see if tongue is coated, then give this delicious "fruit laxative." Children love it, pud it can not cause injury. No difference what ails your little one if full of cold, or a sore throat, diarrhoea, stoni-p.ch-ache, bad breath: remember, a centle "inside cleansins"" should always be the first treatment given. Full directions for babies, children of all ages :uid grown-ups are printed on each bottle. Beware of counterfeit fig syrups. Ask ? our druggist for a fin-cent bottle of 'California Syrup of J igs." then look arefully and see that ii is made by the "California Fig Syrup Company." We, make no smaller size.

Everywhere in all this dry territory the sentiment for prohibition is stronger than before.
