Dr. Pierce manu factured this "Discovery" from roots and barks —a corrective remedy, the ingredients of which nature had put in the fields and forests, for keeping us healthy. Few folks or families now living have not at sometime or other used this "Golden Medical Discovery" for the stomach, liver and heart.

SUBMIT TO ILL DEMANDS Soviet Force* May Concentrate Against Wrangel—Peace in Ireland Nearpr —Some Late Developments In , Our Presidential Campaign. By EDWARD W. PICKARD. Thoroughly whipped by the Poles, the Russian Bolshevlkl have signed an armistice with their opponents, and on October 14 hostilities are supposed to cease. The full terms agreed upon at Riga have not yet been given to the public, but enough has been told to show that Poland has won virtually all her contentions. M. Joffe, head of the Russian delegation, was In no po tion to rjfuse anything within rea son, and Indeed he fiad been Instruct ed to accept almost any terms the Poles might offer. The western boundary line of soviet Russia was the main matter under dlseusslon, and this was settled entlre- Iv In fnvor of the Poles, according to reports from Riga. | The line Is placed so far east that Lithuania Is cut off en tirely from Russia, and Poland is given a corridor those two countries. The boundary agreed upon begins east of Dvlnsk. runs south through Baranovltchl. Lunlnlets and Rnrny. and virtually along the German line of 101R to the Roumanian frontier. The Poles have asserted repeatedly that the Lithuanians have been fight ing alongside the Russians. nnd this boundary settlement should, therefore, go far In bringing about a peaceful agreement between Poland and Lithu ania ; when that Is accomplished the Poles will be free to turn their atten tion to the establishment of their own government'and the .development of their country. They have agreed to be neutral In the Ukraine, where the so viet and Petlura forces are fl eh ting, and Russia nil claims to east ern Gallcla. It Is asserted by some correspond ents that Dorohskl, head of the Polish mission at Riga, was moved, to hurry up The agreement with the Russians by the admonitions of the British am bassador In Warsaw and also by the movementij of his political opponent. Prince Snpiehs. In addition, any these correspondents, the liberal Dombskl element In Poland, Is somewhat slnrmed by the successes of Baron Wrnncel In southern Russia: consider ing that the restoration of the old Russian empire, would constitute a great danger to Poland. Many experts believe that a Ruaso-Pollsh peace will result In the crushing of Wranirel and bis armies. It Is taken for granted that the soviet government will nt once concentrate Its efforts on the Crimean front. However. Wrangel has been making such progress In his campaign that his chances st'll seem good. In his ad vance northward he has taken many thousands of prisoners and vast quan tities of material, and his forces also pushed along the coast of the Sea of Ar.ov northeastward toward Important cities on the lower Don. Kafly In the week It was enld that Mnkno. the Ukraine Insurcent leader, had formed a Junction wkh Wrangel"* troop* and In a flvtng rnld had seized'- Kharkov. Later a wireless dispatch fr«®i Mos cow nsserted that Makno had Joined the Bolshevik! and had been given a commend asalnst Wrangel. It was said his. shift was due to the refusal of his troops to fight against the Bol shcvfkl. Makno's past history inclines one to donbt the truth of this report. According to a Copenhagen newspa per, General Weygaud. who ssaMed the Poles, has gone to Bouth Russia to take supreme command of the anti soviet armies there. »" v to the fact that the Rwslan crop out look ia the wont ever experienced ai/d that In consequence the country faces ■(Starvation during the coming wlfiter. *l,enl%e and the other leaders have been making desperate efforts to re open commercial relations with Great Britain and Italy and to make peace •with Itoumimla, bin these efforts have so far* The Red sol dlej* are mutinying and assassinating theljb officers, and the Russian people generally are In despair. m Petrograd especially the condl • tlodto are terrible, and all the Inhab itants who can are fleeing from the city. The Finnish Red Cross has just Issued an appeal to the Red Cross So cieties of the World describing the shocking state of pflairs In the former capital,, The population has shrunk to about 600.000, and thousands are dying every m»nth of various kinds of epi demics. There is no fuel, no hot wa ter for baths, no street cleaning or re moval of garbage, and the streets are becoming impassable because the pav ing blocks are being burned and the water pipes are bursting. The hos pitals are overflowing with patients and their equipment is wretchedly In adequate. "Death," says the report "stalks on every side, waiting for winter to aid In the grim work of mowing down the silent, hungry sick, and dying thou sands. With .streets and houses choked with filth that Is already spreading spotted and Intermittent typhus, the cold weather wlft finish the task with pneumonia and abdominal typhus." The allied mission named to handle the dlfpute between Poland and Lith uania arrived at Suwalkl Tuesday to begin work, and on the same day, It was announced, the Poles and Lithu anians stopped fighting. The Adriatic dispute between Italy and Jugo-Slavla Is In a fair way of settlement, toi cabinet members of both nations met Friday In Venice and ■resumed direct negotiations. Some time ago Lloyd George and Mfllerand. then premier of France, said If the Jugo-Slnvs and Italians got together It was nobody else's business, fetich was taken as a warning to the United States government to keep Its hands off, whatever may be the disposition of Flume. If It were not for tiie people of Cali fornia and a few Jingoes on both sides of the Pacific, the threat of unpleasant relations between America and Japan woyld quickly fade away. The Ameri can associations of Tokjto and Yoko hama have cabled to-Secretary of State Colby a set of Joint resolutfbns nrirfng that Americans "act with sober deliberation and patience, trusting the respective governments to find a so lution sstlsfactory and effective with out affronting Japan or sacrificing the principles of equity on either hand."

Is quoted as saving: "War will never come be tween the United States nnd Jspan. nnlefs the United stntes seizes Japa nese territory or Japan seises Ameri can territory. Japan has not the re motest Intention of ever attempting to appropriate any American territory." He says there Is no trade war on be tween the two countries.

President Wilson got Into the presi dential campaign at the beginning of the week wjth a long letter addressed to his fellow citizens, urging them to place the seal of their approval of the League of Nations covenant by their votes at the polls In November. He said: 'The chief question that Is put to you is, of course, this: Do you want your country's honor vindicated and the treaty of Versailles ratified? Do you in particular approve of the League of Nations as organized and empowered In that treaty? And do you wish to see the Dnlted States play its responsible part In It?" He said the opponents of the league had mislead the voters and bad dis played gross Ignorance and Impudent audacltv In their "attempt to Indent an 'Americanism' of their own, which has no foundation whatever In any of the authentic traditions of the govern ment.". • Following this lead, Governor Cox and Franklin 'Roosevelt In their cam paign speeches are now making the League of Nations the great Issue and are devoting to It most of their argu ments. Homer S. Cummlngs, former Democratic national chairman, alsp has been called on and will speak for the league In Ohio. Kansas, Indiana, Kentucky, New Mexico and California. Senator. Harding abandoned bis porch again for a quick speaking tour through part of the Middle West, and In his address at Des Moines he ac cepted the direct issue of ratifying or rejecting the League of Nations cov enant. He declared flatly he would favor staying out of the league as formed at Versailles; he said be want ed ncr'acceptance of the league with or without reservations to clarify America's obligations, and that ,he thought the proper thing to do was to reject the covenant altogether. As for what he does favor doing In the yay of an association of nations, he said: "I shall not risk embarrassing the Anal solution of a problem so mo mentous by undertaking to lay down In advance specific details or plans. As soon as possible after my election I shall advise with the best minds in the United States and especially I shall consult In advance with the senate, with whom, by the terms of the Con stitution, I shall indeed be bound to •counsel and without whose consent no such Intetnatlortal 1 association can be formed. I shall do .this to the end that we shall have an association of nations for the promotion of interna tional peace, but one wtfich shall defi nitely safeguard'our sovereignty and recognize our ultimate and unmort gaged freedom of action." An acrimonious controversy has arisen between President Wilson and Senator Spencer of Missouri. The lat ter, In campaign speeches, asserted that the President during the peace conference promised Roumanla and Berbla that If needed the American army and navy would be seht to their aid. This charge Mr. Wilson branded as absolutely false. The Senator re torted that the alleged promise was to he found In the stenographic report of the eighth plenary session of the con ference, Ip which Mr. Wilson was,re ported to have said to Premier Bra tlanu of Roumanla: "Vou must not forget Hint It Is force that Is the final guaranty of the public peace. If the world Is again troubled the United States will send to this side of the ocean their arm.v and their fleet." Spencer asked the President to pro duce the report, but Secretary Tumulty said on Thursday the President had no stenograph!** reoort of the eighth plen ary session and. so far as the Prest dent knows, there la no such record In this country. i Supreme court of the United States says no.
