wmmmm m MUCH CRITICISM BY REPUBLICANS See Little Good in President’s Address. Praise From Others. Washington, July 10.—President Wil son’s address to the senate transmit ting the Peace treaty today was nrala- ed by Democratic leaders as one of his best state papers, but Rejpiblican sena tors generally were inclined to criti cise it. Senator Lodge of Massachu setts, the Republican leader, made no comment and Senator Knox, Republi can, Pennsylvania, declined to com ment : Senator, Borah, Republican, Idaho, one of the leading opponents in the senate of the league of nations also declined to oemment except to say that President Wilson "completely an swered" his own argument that the league of nations is a league for peace by his statement that it is "formed as an alliance of war." Senator Smoot, Republican, of Utah, characterized the address as "another Wiilsonian essay, but not quite up to the standard." _ .Senator Harding,. Republican^- OhlOi a member of the foreign relations com mittee, said the address was "the an- peal of the international and utterly lacking in ringing Americanism." Senator Moses, Republican, New Hampshire, declared the address to be an “appropriate description of the league of nations as an international ‘come-on’ game and it appears to me that any country that wishes to work the international badger game will find the league of nations the sliding panel with which to operate." “It was a fine, c&mprehensive pre sentation of the case,’ said Senator Hitchcock, Democrat, Nebraska. "It was a dispassionate and convincing statement of the reasons that led the representative of one billion people to agree on its reorganization of the world." Senator MoCumber, Republican, N<*rth Dakota a supporter of the lea gue of nations, said the address was “very impressive." “The address," said Senator Swan son, Democrat, Virginia, "is magnifi cent, able, eloquent and inspiring. The reasons presented for the ratification of the treaty, including the league of nations, were strong, cogent and unan swerable.” "I think," said Senator Williams, Democrat, Mississippi, "that In breadth of vision, in height of humanitarian- ism, in fundamental world statesman ship and in deflicacy of dove-tailed English fct is the greatest thing he has ever uttered. His words are a fit ting close to his magnificent and un selfish and, upon the whole, effective work at Paris." I thought," said Senator Chamber- lain, Democrat, Oregon, “It was a splendid address, covering the subject concisely and in a way that will make its way to the hearts of-the American, people." Senator Robinson, Democrat, Ark ansas, asserted the address was "a clear and forceful argument for the ratification of the treaty." Senator Poindexter, Republican, Washington, characterized the speech as “disappointing" and as throwing no "light whatever on the very practical business of the nature, power and method of operation of the league of nations.” Y YARBROUGH RETAINS SUPPLY OF LIQUOR Man Traveling with Five Hundred TGaffons Acquitted In r«ui$ afTo.

Walter Moore, a well known writer, says: “It is a common thipg for farmers to work thplr horses in the hayfield from morning to night,' watering them only at noon. This is done even on days of excessive heat. Tfre driver usually has two or more refreshing drinks in the middle of the morning, and again in the afternoon; but the horses, who are equally as thirsty, go without This want of water is not on ly distressing, but it causes the hors es to drink to excess at noon and again at night, ^which often results in colic, #ind always tends to produce a distended stomach, or what farmers call a ‘hay belly* Farmers who would treat their horses humanely should take water into the field for them in ■ v hot weather*- The next time you buy calomel ask for The purified and refined calcanei tablets that are nimfinlini, safe a»»d sure* Medicinal virtues retain ed and improved.
