0. S. FOR LEAGUE
MILLION8 ACCLAIM WILSON AS
HE SPEEDS ACROSS
THE LAND.
FEW ASK FOR CHANGES
Majority Feel That President’s Guid
ance Should Be Held—He Regards
Pact As Sure to Come Soon.
(By Mt. Clemens News Bureau)
Aboard President Wilson’s Special
Train—From the Capital at Washing
ton to the far Pacific coast the Presi
dent of the United States has jour
neyed on the most unusual expedition
ever undertaken by a chief executive
of the nation.
To discuss national questions, many
presidents have toured the land; but
Mr. Wilson is laying before America
a question which affects the whole
world—the question of whether or not
we are to join in the League of Na
tions; whether we are to forget our
former isolation and share with the
other peoples of the earth the respon
sibilities of maintaining civilization
and preventing, as he says we can do,
future warfare.
Between the capital and the coast
the president made fifteen speeches
and half a dozen brief talks. All of
100,000 fellow citizens listened to him.
Several millions had the chance to see
him, and apparently everyone Wanted
to see him, from those who thronged
the streets of the cities and towns
where he stopped, to-ffiose who came
to the railside or stood at little flag
stations in remote places, knowing
their only reward could be a fleeting
glimpse and a wave of the hand.
He has met and talked to all types
of citizens—to men big in the busi
ness, financial and professional worlds,
to farmers and mechanical workers,
to Indians and cowboys and foreign
born herders and rangers, to soldiers
and to mothers who lost soldier-sons
in the late war.
What do they all tell him? unani
mously they say they want peace
definitely settled, they want no more
wars, they want the League of Na
tions, and most of the American peo
ple, it may be fairly said, tell the
President they want the League just
as it is, without the reservations or
amendments which certain senators
have insisted upon. The majority of
citizens say to those who interview
them on this tour:
“Woodrow Wilson guided us rightly
before and during the war with Ger
many. We entered that war, every
one agrees, to end all wars. He says
the league, can do that. We want to
do that, so let us keep on trusting him
and get the league into operation as
soon as possible. Forget politics.”
Most Americans encountered on the
tour have forgotten politics. Repub
lican Governors and Mayors have in
troduced the President to his audi
ence; the Major part of the local com
mittees which have met him have
- been Republicans. They have all said:
“We are nothing but Americans, Mr.
President.”
Mr. Wilson’s arguments for the
league, briefly summarized, are those:
There can be no peace, either now
or in the future, without it. There
can only be a regrouping of nations
and a new “Balance of Power.” which
is certain to lead to war. There can
be no war in the future, with the
league in existence, because no single
nation would defy the united rest of
mankind,, and if iz did, it could be
MEN WHO WORK HARD
men, farmers, miners, mill
employees and all men who
work at hard, straining physi
cal labor are more or less
subject to kidney trouble.
Nature gives warning signals
by frequent lameness, stiff
joints, sore muscles, back
ache and rheumatic pains. J.
G. Woolf, Green Bay, Wis.,
writes: “Foley Kidney Pills
relieved me of a severe back
ache, that had bothered me
for sevral months. A fow
bottles fixed me up in good
shape.” Sold by the Red

Mrs. Jess Daniel and chil

Mitchell in Augusta Saturday
and Sunday.
Mrs. M. E. Powell, who has
spent the past two weeks with
her son L. O. Powell, in Little
Rock, returned home today,
Friday.
WANTS TO HELP OTHERS
Mrs. A. G. Wells, R. F. D.
Rocky Mount, N. C., writes:
“I cannot praise Foley Kid
ney Pills enough for the won
derful benefits I have derived
from their use. Please pub
lish this statement as I want
the people everywhere to know
of them.” Lame back, sore
muscles, puffiness under eyes,
and an “always tired” feeling
are indications that the kid
neys and bladder are not
working properly. Foley Kid
ney Pills strengthen weak, dis
ordered kidneys and bladder.

brought 'to Terms by an economic
boycott, and without the use of arms.
There can be no reduction in the
cost of living until the league is es
tablished, for nations will not go
ahead with peace time production un.
til they know that peace is definitely
assured and that production of war
material is no longer necessary.
There can be wonderful prosperity,
with league in existence, for rel
ations of labor and capital all over
the world will be made closer and
more friendly, and the worker will re
ceive a fairer share of what he pro
duces.
These declaration of the president,
logically and eloquently put, have left
his hearers thinking and thinking
deeply. And then Mr. Wilson has
pointed out, the people themselves, as
differentiated from senators and politi
cians, seem to want just what the
president wants, which is America for
leadership
Qirte as unusual as the purpose of
the cross country tour is the manner
in which it is being carried out and
the completeness of the arrange
ments on the nine car train which is
bearing the party.
At the rear is the private car May
flower, occupied by the President and
Mrs. Wilson. Next is a compartment
car for the secretary Tumulty, Ad
miral Grayson, Mr. Wilson’s Physi
cian,4 four stenographers, the chief
executive clerk and . even secret ser
vice men. Byond are three compart
ment cars which house twenty-one
correspondents, five movie men, and
a telegraphic and a railroad expert.
Then there is a dinner, a club car, and
two baggage cars, one of them con
verted into a business office. The
train was exactly on time at every
stop between Washington and the
Coast.
