FARMERS PLEDGE SUPPORT TO FDBD COKHOL MN Ready to Support Any Law That Makes for Success of the War ST PAUL. Sept. 19-—" Farmers and wage earner* are willing and ready to support any law thai makes for the success of this war for liberty and de mocracy.” declared President A. C. Townley, of the National Non-Partisan league, answering charges that the farmers are holding back wheat and resisting the food administration be cause the price fixed by the government was less than exported. ’ It was also his answer to charges that farmers of the northwest are not wholeheartedly behind the war He sounded the keynote at the pro ducers’ a»d consumers' conference on the high cost of living here today. Gov ernor Lynn Frazier, of North Dakota, presided. Senator Gronna. one of the •wilful twelve.” Is the leading speaker on tonight's program. ■The farmer's patriotism is big enough to make up for the war profil er’s lack of patriotism and manhood; ar.d. if necessary, the farmer will go on producing food for less than cost, even with profits vultures clutching at his throat, he will feed the world and its armies of freedom to make the whole world safe for liberty and de mocracy,” Townley declared. •‘The purpose of this convention is to aid. strengthen and support the govern ment and expedite its efforts to finish its program to reduce prices. The biggest thing that you can do and the thing you must do if autocracy is to be beaten and liberty and democ racy are to prevail Is to organize in support of our government. "It is your duty to support the gov ernment so that out of the billions that are raised by taxation and the sale of bonds, too much will not stick to the fingers of unpatriotic gentlemen who deal in bread, bacon, steel and muni tions of war. If we can prevent this we can so support th* government m reducing prices so that producer and alike will be benefitted In ade quate vrages and no profit will be per mitted those who render no service. “It Is the duty of every citizen of de mocracy to abide by the will of the majority. It is the duty of those plac ed In authority to seek out and obey •the will of the majority. We are at this convention to support the govern ment in discharge of its tremendom responsibility; to pledge our loyalty to the government in this world crisis and also to remind the government that we expected the government to be loyal to the will of the majority of Its citi zens.” Honor to Page EDINBURG. Scotland. Sept 19. It was unanimously decided by the town council here to confer the freedom of the city of Edinburgh on Walter Hines Page, the American ambassador to the court of St. James. j CHILD’S LfflfflE .

DISCUSSION OF PEACE IS RAGING IN GERMANY Unrestrained Talk Is Taken as Admission of Failure in Russia LONDON, Sept. 19.—England sees in the recrudescence of German peace feel ers admission of a Russian mot that failed. Germany now hopes to make peace stick before the Russian army, reorganised, rehabilitated and modern ized by American aid. can get into ac tion. making complete the cordon of the allies about her strongholds. The German peace discussion is rag ing unhampered by c*n.<orshlp in the German press No doubt was expressed here that the greater part of the edi torials and review articles are inspired. An observer here read the signs to day, Germany now sees herself balked In Russia. She fomented mutiny in the rank* of General BrusilofFs sol diers when they began makingtaiarm ing inroad* against th* Teutonic Lem berg line. She started what was ex tensively advertised as a tremendous land and sea offensive against Riga and Petrograd. She took advantage of General Korniloffs revolt to press her agents In the Russian army to redou bled activity. Russia survived all these. Where Germany had hoped to frighten Russia into a separate peace, the Teutonic leaders probably now see they have stung the new democracy Into action. Pope Is Expecting War Two or Three Years More WASHINGTON. Sejt. 19—Pope Bene dict has made his last peace proffer, according to official cables received here today. The holy see believes the war must go on at least two or three years more—until the full effect of America's vast power has been felt and either a victory or a hopeless deadlock in the great struggle reached. It Is stated on the highest authority that the Vatican realizes peace or fur ther negotiations at present Impossible. President Wilson’s rejection of the pope’s last peace offer—which rejection was heartily approved by the allies— has convinced the Vatican the allies want no peaoe which will leave the cen tral powers under their present rulers. No peace is possible—as was announced semi-officially recent —which is based on mutual concessions as suggested bv the pope. It is realized by the Vatican that the allies, with America's vast re sources now thrown into the balance, now have the upper hand and can wring from the central powers a peace acceptable to the democracies. Any further proffers from the pope would be foredoomed to failure—even as the last was—it is admitted. My, My, General! Don’t You Know Old Georgia Is a Regular Sahara? Provost Marshal General Crowder wants “all the saloons in Georgia” to be closed while the second Increment of the national army is being transport ed to Camp Gordon. That’s exactly what he requests. He deosn’t demand it, of course, but he "earnestly suggests” in a telegram to Governor Dorsey that such steps be taken. The message doubtless is a circular telegram that is being sent to the ex ecutives of all states. Certainly the opinion does not prevail that General Crowder thinks there are open saloons in Georgia. However, the telegram was received, as follows: "A large per oent of your population is about to leave home for the uncer tainties of a soldier'd life. While not an occasion for sorrow, It is a day for solemnity. It is especially inappropriate that it be marred by the untoward events which drunkenness brings in its train. ■Therefore, I earnestly suggest that you consider the advisability of meas ures looking to the cloelng of saloons during such hours preceding entrain ment on the next and subsequent mobi lization days as may seem proper to you.” As yet Governor Dorsey had not told General Crowder Just what steps will he taken Labor’s Loyalty Pledge Is Handed to Kerensky PETROGRAD, Tuesday, Sept. 18— (Delayed.)—David R. Francis, the Amer ican ambassador, tonight presented to the Russian provisional government the telegram addressed by Samuel (temp ers, president of the American Federa tion of Labor, to Premier Kerensky, pledging the supj»ort of American labor In the war and urging the aid of Rus sian democracy. The telegram included the text of the resolutions adopted at the Minneapolis convention. FRANCE RENEWS PLEDGE TO FIGHT UNTIL VICTORY PARTS.

Burwell Addresses Hancock Selectmen and Defends hew Army Law Former Speaker, in Address at Sparta Barbecue, De clared That Both Watson and Hardwick Urged War (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) SPARTA, Ga.. Sept. 18.—Hancock county la sending her first “soldiers of freedom” to Camp Gordon with a ring ing Godspeed. Aesembled at a barbecue in the town of Sparta this afternoon, the quota of selectmen who will uphold the honor of this county, their state and their coun try overseas, listened to William H. Burwell, former speaker of the house of representatives and the present repre sentative from Hancock in the state legislature, deliver to them a patriotic address that was cheered to the echo. In forceful and inspiring language, Mr. Burwell defended the selective serv ice law, excoriated its opponents and paid a splendid tribute to the youths of Hancock oounty Who stepped forward and registered to the last man on June the sth. "We had as well understand here anil now the magnitude of this war.” he de clared, "and that In order to carry it through to a successful conclusion ev ery one of us will be called upon, wheth er willingly or unwillingly, to make numberless sacrifices and to give up much in material things as well as from the sentimental side of life that wo deeply cherish. PRAISES THE LAW. Mr. Burwell recited the history of the selective service law, describing it as “the fairest, the wisest and the best means of securing for immediate and adequate service the army that is nec essary for this emergency.” "Without hesitation,” he asserted. "I do not believe that in all the records of man-made laws there is a wiser or a Juster law than that under which these young men have been summoned to the colors. "Many agitators,” declared Mr. Bur well, "now complain that the war was unnecessary, that it is a rich man’s war, that it is a war of the president, and the thousands of other malicious falsehoods that have been circulated to Influence our people and arouse their hostility. But I cannot conceive and I do not believe that there is a single in telligent being within the sound of my voice or within the borders of our country who does not. down in his heart, know that the declaration of war by our government upon the outrageous and brutal German autocracy was a thing that could not be avoided without the very destruction of the government itself, and the sacrifice of every vestige of national honor.” Mr. Burwell drew the "deadly paral lel” on Thomas E. Watson to show that only a year ago, in the presidential campaign, Mr. Watson was reviling President Wilson for not declaring war on Germany. Said Mr. Burwell: “After the election Watson continued his assaults and, on March 15th of this year, just eighteen days before the res olution declaring a state of war to ex ist with Germany was adopted by con gress, in the Jeffersonian he demanded: HE QUOTES WATSON. If a single vessel of ours is sunk in violation of the laws of nations Join the entente allies! Send money, men and munitions to France, ano bend every energy of this great republic to aid those who are trying to crush the Prussian ideal: That the only law is military necessity to be judged by the Prussian mili tarist. ‘‘Do you catch that? Watson demand ed of the president that if a single ves sel was sunk to send money, men and munitions to France! Yet his chief at tack has been on the act of the president in sending money, men and munitions to France! Mr. Burwell then turned his atten tion to Thomas W. Hardwick, the Junior Georgia senator. "Like Watson,” said Mr. Burwell, “he admits the necessity of the war for, on the 4th day of last April, on the floor of the senate of the United States, he used these words: The resolution pending must pass, not because the congress of the Unit ed States of American people desire war, but because war under the cir cumstances which confront us Is an imperative and absolute necessity. We go to war not for finespun the ories, not for any other purpose or any other cause on earth except one, and that is that peaceable American citizens enjoying their peaceable and legitimate business upon the high seas have been murdered in cold blood by the organized agencies of an established government. This government will be unable to live among the nations of the earth un less It vindicates its right to do so by discharging the first duty that rests upon a nation, and that is to protect its citizens. "And again, on this same day he said, speaking of the German government: They will find in the prosecution of this war, which is demanded by the national honor, behind our presi dent and behind our government, a united and militant nation. “Citizens of Hancock county, men and women, in the light of his persistent and untiring effort to repeal the very law that creates your armies, to re strain this government from sending soldiers to the trenches in France to aid the allies, an his partner, Watson, demands; and in his every other act to embarrass, hinder and belittle the president in the prosecution of the war, in the light of all these thinks I ask you: In God's name, has Billy Hard wick kept this pledge? “Using his own words, has he stood as demanded by the national honor, be hind our president and behind our gov ernment a militant force in the prose cution of this war?” Referring to the claim from certain quarters that the selective service law is unconstitutional, Mr. Burwell said- REPLIES TO CRITICS. "Why, my friends, the statement of the question is its answer. “Where is there a line in the consti tution of this nation that says that the i soldiers in its defence must not put I their feet beyond its borders? What i government could live if its arm. its military power, were palsied when it i reached its border? And its enemy, just outside, could attack ft and spit upon j it and disgrace it with impunity? “It is inconceivable how any sane per son can have the temerity even to sug gest that, now since we have declared . war and that the declaration was In ! evitable, we should Idly sit by and with cowardly indifference watch our allies I across the water In their death struggle i with the most infamous and outrageous I to the colors of your country makes of I you a slave, insults you, insults the , name you bear, insults the cou’ntry you ’ autocracy that has ever cursed and . scourged civilization, and lay not a fin- 'HU WOMEN CNE HELP TO FRENCH POILU Provide Rest Stations and Food for Soldiers Return ing From Front WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.—A small army of American girls and women is ' being organized in France today to take , the thorns from the Poilus’ path when ' they start to the rear or home for the i rest after haid fighting in the front line trenches. This, the French government has told [ America, ’ will strengthen the morale of the French people, and will be “one of i the greatest services American women can render their ally.” The work will cost between SIOO,- 000 and $200,000 a month. The Red Cross anounced today that it has ap propriated $700,000 to establish and maintain the work until the first of November. Red Cross Commissioner Grayson M. P. Murphy has cablegi from the front that there are plenty of women from American homes now at the front to get the work started and that as he needs more of them he will cable his call for volunteers. So great has been the actual fighting I strain on the French people that they have had neither time nor money to make the path pleasant for its battling men between home and from rest sta tions in the rear to the mud and blood of the front-line defense. The men come out of the trenches now filthy, weary, sometimes covered with vermin. They have no hot food when they get to the rear. Not even a place to take a bath, let alone a place to He down and sleep at night. If they have' to wait at a station over night, they sleep on the platform, In adjoining fields or anyplace they can find. The Red Cross and its American women volunteers are establishing: First, a series of canteen kitchens directly behind the lines, from which returning French troops will receive I hot soup in thermos bottles and per i haps other hot food. Second, and further back, bathhouses where the men can go and get cleaned ! up and into fresh clothing. Third, and still further back, dormi | tories where the men can get a good I night’s rest before starting the long journey to home or the extreme rear for their furlough. Major Murphy’s cablegram concern ing this work, said in part: “Great assistance can be given the French army by co-operating in the or ganization of canteens, resting and sleeping quarters for men passing to and from the front.” ADJUSTMENT OF COAST LABOR DISPUTE IN SIGHT Labor Department Officials Hopeful Conciliator Boyce Will Be Successful WASHINGTON, Sept. 19. —Labor de partment officials today expressed the opinion that there “is some prospect of adjustment soon” of the shipbuilders and ironworkers’ strike at San Fran cisco. Their estimate was based largely, it was said, upon a telegram received from W. T.- Boyce, assistant commis sioner of immigration at San Francisco, who is acting as conciliator. Mr. Boyce reported that he held conferences last night and expected to resume them to day. Urgent suggestion from the American Federation of Labor, however, that the entire Pacific coast should be considered a unit in determining wage scales for shipyard employes dimmed the hope of shipping board officials of settling In dependently the strike of iron workers at San Francisco. Consequently the shipping board devoted more attention to solution of the difficulty arising out I of a Seattle company’s action in grant ing high union wage demands. Chair man HuYley, of the boafd, considered postponing his trip to the coast until he could confer with the general man ager of the Seattle company, due to ar rive here tomorrow. Mr. Hurley had planned to leave late today. Letter Carriers End Meet Louisville, Ky., will entertain the con vention of the National Rural Letter Carriers’ association in 1918.

The list of officers, including two members of the executive board, is as follows: Claude Smith, Guthrie, Mo., president; H. J.

Every element of common sense rises up in rebellion against such a thought. "They tell us, again, that tt is involun tary servitude to call you. young men. to follow the flag beyond the seas: and the man who tells you that disgraces and Insults you becau'se the amendment to the constitution referring to involun tary servitude was the amendment that was passed after Appomattox, and its purpose was to destroy slavery, and if you are a slave when you follow your flag across the border, you are a slave when you don the uniform of a soldier of this union and fall in to the call of the bugle. If you are a slave, then these venerable patriots, your fathers, veterans of the Confederacy, who sit here by your side today to do you honor, were slaves when they answered the roll call and under the Stars and Bars marched through that four years of fire and hell from Bull Run to Appomattox. "A man who tells you that to call you serve.” CASTORIA For Infants and Children In Use For Over 30 Years Always bears the LZ Signature of ’ vIZIAsJC FURTHER THDUBLE FDD SWEDEN IS EXPECTED Secretary Lansing Probably Will Demand Another State ment From Stockholm STOCKHOLM, Sept. 19.—‘It is gener ally believed here that the trou bles of the Swedish government In connection with the German telegrams forwarded from Buenos Aires through the Swedish legation are by no means over. The question of the hour is whether the United States will rest satisfied with the tone of the Swedish communication issued last Saturday. It would surprise no one here if Secretary Lansing were to call for a clear and unequivocal statement to the effect that the forwarding of American communications in language open to the Swedish authorities and with the knowledge and consent of the governments concerned was in no wise comparable to the services rendered to Germany by Sweden. The wording of the two Swedish com munications, it is pointed out in polit ical circles, unfortunately left the way open to Germany and Germany’s friends here and in other non-'belliger ent count: ies to bring charges upon the old adages about inhabitants of glass houses and the respective blackness of pots and kettle*. The entente ministers and Ira Nelson Morris, the American minister to Swe den, held one of their customary con ferences on Monday afternoon when, it is understood, the situation created by the sending of German telegrams from Buenos Aires and Mexico City was considered. U. S. Army Sergeant Is Dismissed, Then Taken Into Custody As Enemy (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) FORT OGLETHORPE. CHATTANOO GA, Tenn., Sept. 19.—Quite a sensa tion was created late yesterday after noon when Sergeant Alfred Mohnhaupt, of the Sixth United States infantry, was dishonorably discharged from the army and committed to the German prison barracks as an alien enemy. Few details of the charges agalnet the sergeant are given out and officials re fuse to discuss the matter, but It is learned that Mohnhaupt is charged with crimes similar to those which have caused such a stir between the United States and Sweden, in that it is alleged he transmitted information to Germany through letters written by a Swedish soldier, a member of his own company. Mohnhaupt was serving his third "hitch” in the regular army. He en listed eleven years ago as a cook and for five years was a warrant officer. Re cently he was promoted to be mess ser geant of the Sixth infantry. After his arrest, officials stated that no less than ten German soldiers at Fort Oglethorpe are under surveillance for sending alleged information to rela tives and friends in enutral countries, to be forwarded to Germany. U. S. SEEKS RANGE SITE IN THE SOUTHERN STATES WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.—The war department is now seeking a site in the southern portion of the country for an additional infantry and machine gun fir ing school where adequate ranges can be laid out for rifle and machine gun practice work. Boards of officers are looking over various proposed in Texas and elsewhere, but no recommen dations have yet been received. The new range will require between fifteen and twenty square miles of un inhabited territory, broken into level lande and also into hill country so that battle conditions of all kinds can be reproduced for the target practice work. There must be room for a large cantonment at which the troops can be housed; good rail facilities; an ad jacent city or town, and an adequate supply of good water for camp pur poses. Calomel Today!

MJ® \ I MEN WHO SMOKE MAKE FIGHTERS, SAYS MINISTER Dr. A. R. Holderby, Veteran of Civil War ( Gives to Tobacco Fund—"l’ve Been Smoking Sixty Years/’ He Declares The first man to walk into The Jour nal office Wednesday morning with a I contribution to the Tobacco Fund for j Georgia soldiers overseas, was Dr. A. R. i Holderby, former pastor of the Moore j Memorial Presbyterian church and now pastor of the East Point Presbyterian church. "I know how it feels for a man to go without a smoke, for I'm a smoker my self,” said Dr. Holderby, planking down ' a quarter. “I've been smoking for sixty years—l’m about eighty now—and I’ve never regretted a single puff. I smoke only once a day, but that’s all day long; and I have only one rule —never smoke but one cigar at a time!” Dr. Holderby was himself a soldier, serving four years in the Civil war as a member of the medical corps of the Confederate army. “Smokers,” he declared, “make the best soldiers. I’ve seen it happen time and time again—the man who smokes can stand the long march and the work, he can go into battle with a pep and a cheer, when the other fellow can’t. Smoking goes with fighting; it stimu lates a man; it’s even a means of grace. When everything is going wrong take out your old pipe and draw on it a couple of times and the world looks bet ter.” It’s men like Dr. Holderby, men who know, that realize how tough it is on our soldiers abroad to go without to bacco or to long for the American brands that are unknown in France. Tobacco is one of the highest-priced things in Europe right now, and even when they get it, American soldiers write that it’s not like the genuine article. But a quarter means that The Journal will send to e soldier enough smokes to last him several weeks—one kit con taining two packages of Lucky Strike cigarettes, three sacks of Bull Durham, a tin of Tuxedo and plenty of cigarette papers. Have you sent in your contribution yet? If not, do it today. The boys “over there” are waiting. i Citizen Who Criticizes Government Promoter of Anarchy, Bryan Says CHICAGO. Sept. 18.—The citizen who insists at this, time upon exercising his right of “free speech” in criticising the government is “a promoter of anarchy,” William J. Bryan declared in an ad dress before 1,000 delegates to the con vention of the International Lyceum as sociation “I don’t know how long the war will last,” he said, "but I know that the quickest way out is straight through. Any division or discussion now would simply prolong the war and make It more costly in lives and treasure.” i Wife Tells Court How It Feels to Be Spanked NEW YORK, Sept. 19.—Mrs. George Yedman delved back fourteen years in her memory today to tell a court on do mestic relations about how much it hurt when hubby turned her over on his knee and spanked her soundly. She complained that Yeoman was trying to make her move with him to a suburb where she would be "burled” and ex plained she recalled the spanking just so the court would know all about him. The court refused to be sympathetic and reduced instead of increased Mrs. Yeoman's allowance. “I'm sorry I got that spanking busi ness off my mind,” Mrs. Yeoman remark ed later. under my personal guarantee tnat it will clean your sluggish liver better than nasty calomel; It won’t make yot sick and you can eat anything you want without being salivated. Your druggist guarantees that each spoonful will start your liver, clean your bowels and straighten you up by morning or you get your money back. Children gladly take Dodson’s Liver Tone because it is pleasant tasting and doesn’t gripe or cramp or make them sick. I am selling millions of bottles of Dodson's Liver Tone to people who have found that this pleasant, vegetable liver medicine takes the place of dangerous calomel.

SHE CDULDNf UFT I SCUTTLE OF COIL “I Feel Stronger and Better Every Day Since Taking Tanlac,” She Says—Gained Twenty-Three Pounds "1 have changed from a run-down, nervous wreck into a strong, healthy woman, and have gained twenty-three pounds in weight besides, since I began taking Tanlac,” said Mrs. G. R. Burgin, of 214 Second street, some time ago. “For three whole years I suffered tor ture from stomach trouble and disor dered kidneys.” she continued, “and 1 had about given up hope of tjelng well any more, for nearly every medicine I could hear of I tried, and nothing helped me. It seemed like everything I ate dis agreed with me, and I fell off until I was almost a shadow. I was so weak I couldn’t lift a scuttle of coal to put <jm the fire, and seemed to get weaker all the time, until I was almost helpless. "If anyone had told me that there was a medicine that would have done for me what Tanlac has, I couldn’t have be lieved them before I took it! I began to improve from the very Beginning, and my father says that he never saw such a change in anyone. Everything I eat nourishes me and builds me up. and I have gone up from eighty pound* to one hundred and three —a clear gain of twenty-three pounds. I feel stronger and better every day since taking Tan lac.” Tanlac is sold by one regularly estab lished agency In every town. —(Advt.) »192 PANTS MEASURE L Not SI.OO. not even 50c, not one cent Hi cost to you under our easy conditions No extra charge for fancy, swell styles. no extra charge for extra big, extreme ygr peg-tops, pearl buttons, tunnel or fancy belt loops, no extra charge for any- Arf thing, all FREE.
