TWAS SO GOOD
Texas Lady Storekeeper.
Who Carries Biack-Draught
in Stock, Has Found It
‘‘Best Liver Medicine’’
Obtainable
Barker, Texas—Relating her experi
ence with Thedford’s Black-Draught,
Mrs. A. L. Fromme, of this place,
says: "I had for some time used
. . . and other liver medicines,
which would nauseate and make me
feel bad. We have a store, and our
customers called for Black-Draught
so often I decided it must be good,
so thought I would try it myself.
"I began its use and found it just
fitted my case. It neither griped nor
nauseated me, was an easy laxative
and not hard to take.
“I had had headaches a great deal,
no doubt from torpid liver. The
Black-Draught would cure them. The
best way I find to take Black-
Draught is to take one or two good
sized doses until the liver begins to
act, then taper the doses to just a
pinch after meals.
“It will insure good digestion, do
away with the gas or bad taste in the
mouth, and is without doubt the best
liver medicine in the market. I have
found it so. I can recommend it to
my friends, for I believe it will do
them good.”

Black-Draught liver medicine today.

MOTHER
DEBS ■WON
II FEDERfiL PRESOIH
For the first time in history a can
didate for president of the United
States has been tendered the nomi
nation and has accepted it while a
prisoner in the penitentiary.
The unique event occurred Satur
day morning “t the Atlanta federal
prison, when Eugene V. Debs, serv
ing the second year of a ten-year
sentence for violating the espionage
law. formally was notified of his
nomination for the presidency on the
Socialist ticket by a delegation of
leading Socialists who came from
New York to Atlanta for the pur
pose.
By the prison rule. Debs could
issue no formal statement, but he
made a speech of acceptance, stand
ing in the office of the warden in
his blue prison clothes, while the
delegation occupied chairs in a circle
around him.
When the delegation arrived at
the prison. Debs kissed each one of
them. Then they posed for photogra
phers and the movies on the prison
steps. The ceremony followed in the
warden’s office, after which the re
porters quitted the prison, leavinng
Debs and his friends discussing party
affairs.
Ncminated May 13
Debs has been at the federal prison
since last June. He was convicted in
the summer of 1918 for violating the
espionage law in an adrdess he made
at Canton, O. The United States
judge at Cleveland sentenced him to
ten years. The supreme court con
firmed the sentence in January, 1919.
and Debs was sent to prison at
Moundsville, W. Va., April 13, 1919.
He was transferred to the Atlanta
prison June 13, of the same year.
Recently Socialists presented to Pres
ident Wilson and Attorney General
Painter a petition for an amnesty
calling for the liberation of hundreds
of “political prisoners," including
Debs and other leaders of the party.
Action on the petition now is pend
ing.
When the Socialist party held its
convention in New York City, May
13, Debs was nominated for presi
dent. It was the fifth time the So
cialists have named him their candi
date. A committee was appointed to
wait on him at the Atlanta prison,
with the tender of the nomination,
and it was this committee which ar
rived in Atlanta early Saturday morn
ing.
Composing the committee were
Seymour Stedman, former Illinois
legislator and Debs’ running-mate on
the Socialist ticket; James O’Neal,
associate editor of the New York
Call, Socialist orgagi, and a member
of the national Socialist executive
committee; Julius Gerber, secretary
of the Socialist party in New York;
Otto Branstetter, secretary of the
national Socialist executive commit
tee; and Mrs. Dr. Madge Patton
Stephens, of Terre Haute, Ind., Debs’
home town, who is a friend of Debs
and his family.
Accompanying the party to the
prison were Samuel M. Castleton, At
lanta lawyer; Joseph Rhoden, Socia
list organizer for the south-east; Wil
liam Morris Feigenbaum, publicity
man for the Socialist party, and
representatives of the press who in
cluded, besides the Atlanta papers,
reporters for the .Christian Science
Monitor, the Associated Press, the
United Press and the Macon Tele
graph.
Debs Speaks
"Mr. Oneal and comrades,” he said,
“you will understand that in my
present situation I am not able, on
account of the prison rules, to issue
any formal acceptance of the honor
you have so kindly and generously
tendered me on behalf of the So
cialist party. Before accepting the
nomination you have just tendered
me. it is perhaps proper for me to
say a few words to explain the rea
son that promoted me to permit the
use of my name by delegates in the
convention in connection with the
candidacy for president of the United
States.”
Mr. Debs, reviewing the previous
nominations he had accepted, declar
ed that only the good of the party,
which he considered paramount, per
suaded him to be a candidate now.
He had been told, he said, that it
would tend to reunite opposing ele
ments in the party.
He spoke for about forty-five min
utes, slowly and deliberately. Most
of his address was taken up with a
discussion of the platform as adopted
at the recent convention of Social
ists and of other party matters. He
said, however, a number of strik
ing things, among them:
Always Been a Radical
“I have always been a radical,
never more so than now. I have never
been afraid of being too radical, but
I have feared to become too conserva
tive. If we are right and know we
are right, we cannot be too radi
cal.”
“There is a tendency in the So
cialist party to become a party of
politicians instead of a party of
workers. This ought not to be en
couraged, but it ought to be checked.
We are not in politics to get office,
but to achieve the industrial eman
cipation of the working class.”
“Before beginning to serve my
time here, I made several addresses
supporting the Russian revolution,
which I believe is the greatest sin
gle achievement in the history of
mankind. I said I was a Bolshevik. I
meant It then and I mean it now. I
did not mean I was a Russian Bol
shevik in America, but that I was
fighting for the same thing In
America that they are fighting for
in Russia.”
“The ‘dictatorship of the prole
tariat,’ Is simply a term which the
hostile press has used against us.
We are opposed to dictatorship of
any kind. We stand for freedom,
equal rights and justice for all.”
“I am heartily in favor of the
Russian revolution and think we
should support it with all our
power.”
No Applause
“We should withhold any criticism
in this campaign. I was sorry. re
cently to read the speech of a com
rade attacking congress. I shall not
attack them. I admire them, for I
know they are as sincere in their
position as we are in ours. There are
mistakes made on both sides.”
“Extremists have denounced me as
a traitor. I shall not denounce them.”
“We can develop a united party,
but we cannot do it by harshly criti
cizing those who disagree with us.”
Debs concluded as follows: “With
all my heart, I return thanks and
appreciation to you for the honor
you have done me. I may not be
able to join you In the activities of
the campaign, but you can rest as
sured that, if I am here, my spirit
will breathe out through these bars
so that comrades will know my heart
beats with theirs.”
When Debs concluded, there was
no applause, but his friends entered
with him into policies and problems
of the Socialist party, In the course
of which the newspaper men with
drew.

(N. E. A. Staff Special)
MARTINEZ, Cal.—A fifteen-year
old girl mother of a fatherless in
fant, a wealthy youth who denies
that he is its father, and the bride
of the youth who wants to adopt
the babe; these are the actors in a
human drama being enacted here
with the Contra Costa county jail and
court as a stage setting.
Roy Locke, a well-to-do young
Oakland automobile dealer, is in jail
on a statutory charge. Dorothy
Starr, with her month-old baby, is
here to press the charge against
him, and Mrs. Locke, handsome wife
of the accused pian, is weepingly
standing by her husband of three
months and offering to clear away
the clouds by adopting the baby.
Locke was arrested down in
Fresno on the charge that last July
he took the Starr girl to a dance
after which he took her into the
hills and attacked her. Miss Starr’s
charge is strengthened by the testi
mony of a friend, Grace Harper, who
was in the auto at the time of the
alleged offense. She has named the
infant “Roy.”
The young man, who was identi
fied by the girl from a group of
men when brought to the maternity
hospital, denies the story.
Mrs. Locke wants the baby as her
own.
“I love all babies,” she says. “I
seem to be especially attracted to
this one. I wanted to adopt it and
prevent all this. I -would be a spod
mother to it, and how much better
that would have been.”
But Dorothy holds the babe tight
in her arms and looks stolidly into
space.

FORT VALLEY. Ga., May 29.
The first peaches of the 1920 crop to
leave Fort Valley in car-lot ship

one car of Mayflowers haying left
Tuesday with others following daily.

price was far above that of any pre

WASHINGTON, May 29.—Senator
Hoke Smith today asked unanimous
consent to take up in the senate the
bill, which has just passed the

this bill and would allow no oppor
tunity to pass without seeking to
bring this bill before the senate for

himself as being confident that, be

BY DAVID LAWRENCE
(Copyright, 1920, for The Atlanta Journal.)
WASHINGTON, May 29.—Presi
dent Wilson’s approval of the Vir
ginia platform which is no secret,
was largely the work of Senator
Carter Glass is the first expression
from the White House of what the
president would like to have adopted
by the Democratic national conven
tion at San Francisco. He does not
ask for the unqualified Indorsement
of the covenant and peace treaty but
“prompt ratification without reserva
tions which would impair its essent
i. integrity.”
There’s the Democratic national
platform on the issue condensed in
tc words. Inasmuch as the presi
dent considers the Lodge reservation
to be a “nullifying reservation,” and
inasmuch as he already has indors
ed the Hitchcock reservation, the
Democratic claim is unchanged from
that which the majority of the Dem
o ’•ats stood for in the various votes
in the senate. The big query is
whether the Republicans will stand by
the Lodge reservations or the Hiram
Johnson program of no treaty and no
league at all.
But the president’s indorsement,
of the Virginia platform and his
words of commendation for Senator i
Glass may have another significance.
The junior senator from Virginia has
been indorsed for the presidency by
the Democrats of his state in conven
tion assembled. He himself is a
strong supporter ot the candidacy of
William Gibbs McAdoo. But suppose
for various reasons the delegates to j
the national convention decide that
McAdoo cannot win if nominated. To
whom would the McAdoo strength
be thrown? Not to Palmer for there |
is deep-seated rivalry between the
McAdoo and Palmer camps -which
will not vanish on the convention
floor.
Real Wilson Man
Senator Glass is a man after Presi
dent Wilson’s own heart. He is a
fearless combatant, an uncompromis
ing fighter, and a man who as chair
man of the house .committee on
banking and currency, helped frame
the federal reserve act and later
made a splendid impression as sebre
tary of the treasury.
There’s one important factor to
keep in mind in trying to figure out
who will be the Democratic nominee.
The principle held good when Repub
lican presidents were in office and it
holds good today. It is that the man
in the White House can select the
nominee of his party. There is this
difference, however, this year. It is
that Mr. Wilson 'himself is embar
rassed by the fact that his son-in
law is an aspirant for the office
and most of the other candidates are
of his brand of the Democratic
lodge.
Mr. Wilson may not exactly pick a
man but he can veto the choice of
anyone who doesn’t subscribe to like
principles. Much'talk of Vice Presi
dent Marshall is heard, but that
speech which the latter made in In
diana was not sufficiently pro
league and pro-treaty, to earn the
cordial approval of the incumbent of
the White House. Similarly Messrs.
Bryan and Edwards haven’t sub
scribed with undying fervor to the
principles of the covenant and the
treaty framed by Woodrow Wilson.
Senator Underwood, of Alabama, is
well liked by the president and un
questionably his selection as Demo
cratic leader in the senate was pleas
ing to Mr. Wilson. By conversatives
in the Democratic party, he is looked
upon as a dark horse. He retains
much of the strength which he had
in 1912.
Eligibles
But presidential favor seems to be
unlikely to descend on any but thotee
who absolutely pledge their all on
the Wilson treaty stand. The hid
den but effective political hand jf he
White House reaching out through
scores of federal officeholders and
staunch Wilson men to the delegates
of the convention itself, will veto
tnose who haven’t the n/rve to in
dorse the Wilsonian docijrine on the
league and peace treaty as enunciat
ed in the platform of Virginia Dem
ocrats. Thus far it would seem that
the following are eligible for Demo
cratic nomination from the Wilson
standpoint:
1. John W. Davis, of West Vir
ginia, ambassador to Great Britain.
His name was recently presented to
the public by the New York Times,
an unprecedented action for that
newspaper to take. Though one ad
ministration Democrat humorously
remarked that , the prize given Am
bassador Davis by that consistent
critic of the Wilson administration,
former Attorney General James H.
Beck, was enough to make Democrats
suspicious, there is nevertheless a
friendly feeling for the American
ambassador in White House circles.
It would not be surprising indeed to
see President Wilson favor Mr. Davis
if he favors anybody. The American
ambassador is a remarkable orator
and a great lawyer. Supreme court
justices, it is whispered, say he is
the best lawyer who has argued be
fore the high court in the land in
the past generation.
2. Governor Cox, of Ohio, is in
good favor at the White House. He
has expressed himself on the treaty
question in terms favorable to the
Wilson viewpoint. The general feel
ing here is while Mr. Cox would
make an excellent man to head the
ticket, the party may draft him in
the end for the vice presidency.
Other White House Yavorites
3. Senator Glass is the kind of
Democrat who comes within the Wil
son category of "patriotic men who
know how to serve their country and
mankind.” The fact that he comes
from Virginia is, of course, no obsta
cle in Mr. Wilson’s because the
president is Virginian by birth.
Secretary David Franklin Houston
is another White House favorite. He
thinks along the lines that Presi
dent Wilson does. He is credited
with being the president's constant
adviser or> economic and interna
tional questions. He isn’t spectaci
lar or dramatic, however, and is
of the quiet type that doesn’t mag
netize politically speaking. Charles
R. Crane, minister to China, and
another one of the inner circle at
the White House, used to talk of
Secretary Flouston as the best quali
fied for the presidency. If left to a
civil service examination, Mr. Hous
ton probably would win the nomina
tion hands down.
To these names should be dded
Attorney General Palmer and for
mer Secretary McAdoo, as men to
whose respective candidacies the
president already has said he would
have no objection.
. But it is hardly likely that Mr. Wil
son will ever express a preference
between these two mep for reasons
best known to himself. His influence
will go toward the man who can, in
his judgment, make the best Cam
paign for the League of Nations r id
vindication of the Wilson policies.

of sister women, and the result has brought a won
derful change in her facial charm. "In a single

there are hundreds of my friends who know how I
did it (in a secret, pleasant, quiet, yet harmless man
ner). My complexion today is as clear and fair as
that of a child. My figure, formerly almost scrawny,
1 have developed into a beautiful bust and well de
veloped form. Thin, scrawny eyelashes and eyebrows,
so poor they could scarcely be seen, have become
long, thick and luxuriant: and by my own method.”
Referring to pimplcs t blackheads and superfluous
bair, Helen Clare continued: "I banished mine in my
own way and by my own method, using nothing but
my own simple home treatment, which any other
woman can now have the personal benefit of and do
as well as I have done "if”—"if”—"if”—they will
only make the effort and have even a little, teeny
bit of faith in themselves as well as in me.”
Hundreds of women are so delighted with the re
sults from Helen Clare’s methods that they write
her personally the most enthusiastic letters. Hers

“Thank you for what your Beauty Treatment has
done for me. It has cleared my face of blackheads
