Republican Leaders Call At
tention to the Way South
Is Bossing Things
WaMhlnirton, Oct. 7. The North.
<ht> Middle West and the West are
taxed in manpower and money to de
feat Germany nearly tenfold to the
kpllth'S One. Despite this, framing of
all war legislation is vested in Con
gressmen from the South, say Repub
lican leaders here.
Every important committee chair
manship in Congress is held by a
Southern Democrat. Of sixty-one com
mittees forty-one have Southern
Democratic chairmen. The remaining
twenty chairmanships are held by
Northern Democrats, but none of these
committees is important and none of
them have anything to do with the
War program. Of -20 House Demo
crats 130 are from the "Solid South.
It is idle for the people of the North.
Middle West and West to send Demo
cratic Congressmen to Washington,
hoping that these Congressmen will
* have a voice in shaping the destinies
of the Republic. Democratic members
from these sections of the country are
ignored by the Southern Democratic
Congressmen unless they subscribe
blindly to the policies and commands
of the Southern members, or are con
trolled absolutely by the Democratic
caucus, which is controlled by the
Southern members.
The Southern Democratic Machine
. is running Congress and the country,
and conducting the war. despite the
fact that it represents the smallest
section of the country in population.
Wealth and manpower. During' the
fiscal year 1917 the people of the Lnit
ed States paid into the Federal Treas
ury $3,671,918,236 in internal taxes. Of
this sum the "Solid South" contribut
ed $587,359,433, or about 13 per cent,
of the total. The entire country paid
s 521,340,901 income and excess profits
taxes. Of this sum the "Solid South"
contributed $258,854,006, or about 9
per cent. Under such conditions of
government will the people of the
North, Middle West and Wost decide
to elect Democratic Congressmen in
November to perpetuate the rule of
the "Solid South?'

"Nothing So' Good as Tonall For
Indigestion" Is the Expe
rience of a Nurse
"I suffered for years with indi
gestion. Nothing helped until I be
gan taking Tonall. Now I eat any
thing and am getting fat," says
Nora Green, of Coatesville, Pa.
"My occupation is nursing. My
duties take me among sick people.
My experience with Tonall has been
beneficial indeed. It drove all pains
from my stomach. I feel all toned
up, and there must be great virtu®
in the Roots, Herbs and Barks in
Tonall, as it certainly is good for
stomach ailments.
"My wonder is why don't every
body with indigestion use it. They
ould if they knew what good it
does."
This testimonial was given July
l9lB.
Tonall is sold at Gorgas' Drug
Store, Harrisburg, and Martz' at

DELEGATION TO
BE REPUBLICAN
Protective Union Issues Ap
peal to Elect Republican
Congressmen Now
An appeal to voters of Pennsylva
nia to support William C. Sproul for
governor and the Republican nomi
nees for CongTess is made in a letter
sent out by the Pennsylvania Pa
triotic Union over the signature of
C. W. Hill, the secretary.
This communication reads:
"Do you ever stop In these busy
times to thinlc of the part Pennsylva
nia—your state—is playing In the
great war?
"Do you realize that out of our
population of about 8,500,000 there
has been a registration of men avail
able for military service of 2,020,759,
and that up to September 12, 306,998
have been sent into actual service?
Do you realize that up to this
time Pennsylvania has sent more sol
diers overseas than any state of the
union, and more than all the south
ern states combined, in spite of the
fact that the latter have three times
our population,?
"Do you realize that Pennsylvania
paid last year more Federal taxes
than any other state (eliminating
Wall Street, which really belongs to
the whole country) and more than
twice as much as all the southern
states combined?
"Did you know that Pennsylvania
paid one-sixth of the entire amount
of revenue paid by the whole coun
try?
"Do you recall that Pennsylvania
has oversubscribed her allotment to
every Liberty Loan, to the funds for
the Red Cross, Y. M. C. A., Knights
of Columbus and various other
funds?
"Did you know that Pennsylvania
was furnishing one-sixth of the
munitions turned out by the entire
country?
"Did you ever realize what a hole
would be made in our war program
if Pennsylvania were eliminated?
"And then do you ever realize that
Pennsylvania has no part whatever
in the management of the war or in
the laying of taxes?
"Do you realize that all national
legislation is in the hands of a small
group of Southern Democrats, who
tell you what to do and how and
when to do it?
"And yet Pennsylvania has proved
her patriotism in every essential. She
has not sulked nor faltered. Nor will
she. But when the lieutenants of the
President leave their important tasks
to come here to work their political
game are not the loyal patriotic Re
publicans who have made possible
Pennsylvania's great attainment. Jus
tified in asking for a place in the
legislative halls of the country?
"On November 5 there will be
elected 435 Representatives in Con
gress of whom 36 will go from this
state. We now have 28 Republican
members, why not make it 34 or 35?
The two parties are now so evenly
divided that a gain of four or five in
Pennsylvania might make the House
of Representatives Republican, and
remember that it is in the House that
all revenue legislation originates.
"As a Pennsylvanian who is deeply
concerned in national affairs at this
most critical period of our history,
you are urged to give heed to the
situation and use every effort to send
a practical sclid Republican delega
tion to Congress."

ite Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur
Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly com
pounded, brings back the natural
color and lustre to the hair when
faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the
only way to get this mixture was to
make It at home, which is mussy and
troublesome. Nowadays, by asking
at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound." you will
get a large bottle of this famous old
recipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients, for about 50 cents.
Don't stay gray! Try It! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as It does It so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two. your hair
becomes beautifully dark, glossy and
attractive.
