10 THINKS TREATY WILL BE IN VAIN MINUS LEAGUE Wilson Says European Re adjustments Need Action of All Nations By Associated Press. Helena, Mont.. Sept. 12 Declar ing that the Treaty could not be carried out without the League, President Wilson cited the terri torial adjustments of Mid-Europe as an example of the sort of tasks which he asserted only a concert of nations could accomplish. The League was to be the instrumentality, he said, "by which the goods are to be de livered to the people to whom they belong," in territories of disputed sovereignty. The League, too, would be a step toward world democracy, the Presi dent said, because for the first time it would place the small and weak nations on a footing of equality with the great and powerful. Scores Boston Strike The text of the President's refer ence to the police follows: "I want to say this, that a strike of the policemen of a great city leaving that city at the mercy of an army of thugs is a crime against civilization. In my judgment, the obligation of a policeman is as sacred and direct as the obligation of a soldier. He is a public servant, not a private employe and the whole honor of the community is in his hands. Ho has no right to prefer any private advantage to the public safety. I hope that that lesson will be burned in so that it will never again be forgotten because the pride of America is that it can exercise self control." Saying he had been told the west Woman Thinks She Is Privileged to Talk "If anyone ever had a miserable stomach I surely had. It was grow ing worse, too, all the time. Had severe pains and attacks every ten days or two weeks and had to call a doctor, who could only relieve me for short while. Two years ago last February I took a treatment of Mayr's Wonderful Remedy and I have not had a spell of pain or misery since. My friends just won der that I am looking so well. I feel I am privileged to talk about it" It is a simple harmless preparation that removes the catarrhal mucus from the intestinals tract and allays the inflammation which causes prac tically all stomach, liver and intest inal ailments.

" i SAYS CARRANZA IS THROUGH By Associated Press. Mexico City, Thursday, Sept. 11.—"Venustiano Carranza under no circumstances will seek re election as President of Mexico and without fail will turn the Presidency over to his successor upon completing his present term in December, 1920," Luis Cabrera, Secretary of the Treasury, an nounced to-day. This statement was made fol lowing the publication of a re port that a meeting of various political leaders had been held to consider the re-election of Presi dent Carranza. was pervaded by "what is called radicalism," the President declared the only way to keep men from agi tating against grievances was to re move the grievances. As long as "things are wrong," he said, he did not intend to ask that men stop agitating, begging only that they use orderly methods. He said radicalism meant "cutting up by the roots," a process that would be unnecessary if "noxious growths" were removed. i When the President was intro duced by Governor Sam Stewart at his night address here, the crowd stood up and cheered. Mr. Wilson said that the issue after all was whether the sacrifice of the war would be in vain. The task of those who fought was only half done, he declared, and if the Treaty was not put into effect "men like these will have to die again." Why U. S. Entered War The United States, said the Presi dent, did not go into this war will ingly and the Nation had tried to convince itself "that the European business was not our business." But presently, he continued, it became apparent that civilization itself was at stake. "We fought Germany." he con tinued, "that the world might be a fit place to live in. And the world will not be a fit place to live in as long as any great power can do what Germany did." Under the League, asserted Mr. Wilson, there would be no oppor tunity for a people to be thrown into war without their consent. But if the League failed he declared the United States would be deliberately guilty of "preparing a situation which would bring on the final world war." FLEET AT VICTORIA By Associated Press. Victoria, B. C., Sept. 12.—With shore batteries and ships guns booming their salutes in a drizzling rain, the U. S. S.

With President Wilson en tour conduct ing his fight for the Treaty and Samuel Gompers in Dorchester, Mass., where he was called by the death of his father, apparently no one here had authority to act. Representatives to the twenty four steel-craft unions affiliated with the American Federation of Labor who constituted th? special steel workers' committee which issued the strike call, left Washington one by one. John Fitzpatrick, chair man of the committee, the last to leave, said he was going to Chicago and later to Pittsburgh, where the strike headquarters will be establish ed. William Z. Foster, secretary of the workers' committee, also went to Pittsburgh. "There is no change in the situa tion," said Mr. Fitzpatrick, who de clined to comment on the Presi dent's latest message to Samuel Gompers asking Gompers not to permit a walkout of steel workers until after the President's capital and-labor conference to be held here October 6. Union leaders reiterated their statements that officials of the Steel Corporation would get the surprise of their lives when the strike came. Officers of the Steel Corporation maintain that not more than 10 per cent, of their employes are union ized, while the union officials say that the organization in Pittsburgh, Chicago and Cleveland districts amounts to 85 per cent. Demand Union With Greater Russia as Extinction Threatens By Associated Press. Washington, Sept. 12.—Complain ing of alleged suppression and per secution of the Russian race in Ga licia and Bukowina by police, Mag yars and Austrians, a committee representing the Carpatho-Russian nationality at Paris has addressed a petition to President Wilson and Congress in which they demand union of their people with greater Russia. Humorous instances are cited of oppression of Russian peasants be cause of race and religion by mem bers of the dominant races.

So far as I am advised, the Republican organization of Dau phin county has been conducting the Republican politics of this county fairly, honestly and capably, and. therefore. for my part I see no reason why I should not support that organization, provided the candidates recommended by it are capable of filling the positions to which they aspire." Mr. Moyer Praised After speaking of some of the candidates and their qualificatins for the several offices, Mr. Hargest re ferred to the office of district attor ney its follows: The office of district attorney is one of the most important county offices, and it should be filled not only by a capable lawyer, but by an experienced trial lawyer. Good lawyers are often experienced in various ways, some are good office lawyers, good Orphans' Court law yers, or good corporation lawyers, who do not have experience in the actual trial of cases. The district attorney must necessarily be largely engaged in criminal trials, and herefore, should be a good triai lawyer. He should also be a fair minded man. District attorneys too often are over zealous for the con viction of defendants. They forget that under our system of jurispru dence a defendant is considered innocent until he is proven guilty, and they often demand of ants 'the pound of flesh.' "Philip S. Moyer has been in ac tive practice at the bar for ten years o- more: he has had such experi ence in the trial of cases, both civil and criminal, which fits him for the office of district attorney, to which he aspires. He has been engaged in four or more murder cases, and is thoroughly familiar with the ad ministration of the criminal laws His association with his fellow mem bers of the bar have proven him to be a careful, considerate, conscien tious and capable lawyer, who in every way will measure up to the standard which I have Indicated for the office of district attorney, and I am sure he will fill the office with credit to himself and entire satis faction to the people of this coun ty. "That his associates at the bar recognize his fitness for this office is shown by the fact that over 90 per cent, of the Republican mem bers of the bar signed his nominating petitions." Mr. Hargest also commended Henry M. Stine and Charles C. Cumbler as men who should be elected county commissioners; George W. Karmany, of Hummels town, for sheriff; Ed. H. Fisher for register of wills; M. Harvey Taylor for recorder of deeds and Oliver C. Bishop for county treasurer. Reports from headquarters this morning were that all of these can didates are running well and It was freely predicted that they will be nominated next Tuesday. The so called opposition candidates, Ed. F. Doehne, for district attorney; Joshua Rutherford, for county treasurer; Carl B. Shelley, for register of wills; Lockwood.B. Worden ror recorder, and several others who have lined up with them, were also busy to-day and it was announced would keep up their fight until the close of the polls. By a peculiar coincidence both Taylor and Worden are best known among those who love sports. Wor den is a gunner and angler and Tay lor is well known as a former base ball player of skill and popularity. Taylor was formerly city commis sioner In charge of parks and fire department and Worden served out the unexpired term of his father as prothonotary following the latter's death.
