identified one of the bandits as Lara,
ex-employe of Fraser in the Oro
Ulanco district. Lara was accom

the store and ordered "hands up," ac
' cording to Fraser. Then, without
warning, they began shooting. Alex

killed. John A. Fraser was shot dow

1920 CONVENTION" LIKE 1916
MEETING IS PROPHECY. '
Senator Moses, Washington, Says
Public at Gates Will Demand
Veteran as Nominee. '
CHICAGO. Feb. 29. (Special.)
Senator George H. Moses, Washington
manager of the Wood campaign, de
clared yesterday "the convention of
191'0 is not to be very different than
that of 1916. Wood will certainly
have the support Hughes had, giving
him nearlyBOO votes on first ballot.
There is no rival within 100 votes of
him, and naturally second choice men
will swing immediately to Wood on
tne second ballot. It took three bal
lots to elect Hughes, but lookfor less
for Wood. One thing certain is the
1920 convention won't be "hard boiled.'
The clamoring of the great public at
the gates for Leonard Wood will have
great effect on the open convention.
The great public is for Leonard Wood.
Every newspaper poll shows him with
overwhelming lead. We expect to
carry every presidential primary state
where no native son is in running.
and will run native sons till their
tongues hang out.
I notice the manager of one candi
date says 15 or 20 men will sit in
a hotel and decide the nominee. There
never will be such a conference unless
it should be to debate on a candidate
for vice-president to run with Wood.

Friendliness Turned to III Feelin
as Result of Attempt o Dic
tate, Says Senator. -
COATESVirj.E T VtA 99 Vrm.
J j ident Wilson's participation' in the
I Adriatic controversy was made the
basis for an arraignment of the
league of nations by Senator Poin
dexter, republican, Washington, here
today in a speech p which he pointed
to that dispute as indicative of the
futility of the idea "that peace can
be brought to the world merely by
giving up the independence of the
several nations and uniting them all
under one central authority."
"Here is a question," Senator Poin
dexter said, . "to be settled by the
very nations who have been selected
out of all the other members of the
proposed league for places on its
council. They are not able to agree
with the United States, or rather
with the president. How can it be
assumed that these same nations,
bound together in the solemn cove
nant and constitution of a ratified
league could agree to any greater
extent than now?"
Settlement Held Certain.
"Settlement of the Adriatic ques
tion somehow whether there is a
league of nations or not was cer
tain," he said, adding, "it is Just such
differences that lead to war."
"As -the matter now stands," the
senator said, "the United States and
its people can be relieved of the
burden of this controversy by with
drawal from it, whereas, if the presi
dent s demand that the league be
ratified had been granted, we could
not withdraw in a lesser time than
two years, during which time we
would have been drawn into the in
evitable consequences of the con
flict. It is a blessing to the United
states and to the world that the
president has been saved, against his
win, from being compelled to remain
in such conflicts.
' Cselesiinesa Is Asserted.
The useleseness of the United States
undertaking to improve conditions
in the world by partiolDation in
European affairs, also is illustrated
by the Adriatic controversy, Senator
poindexter insisted.
"No good has come bf it" he de
clared. "On the contrarv. tha fr!,n.
ly affection which the peoples oT
western Europe felt for the United
States, on account of the great serv
ices our nation had rendered them
in their war for independence, has
been changed into almost universal
ill-feeling. This is the actual re
sult of the attempt of a rink out
sider to impose its will op other
people's affairs."
Bitterness Is Foreseen.
Further criticism of the president
was voiced by the. senator in declar
ing that "peace would long ago have
been restored to all parts of Europe
as well -as to America, but for the
insistence of the president in form
ing a union between our nation and
European nations and making our
selves partners in European contro
versies and European nations asso
ciated in the settlement of Amer
ican affairs," adding that should our
"meddling',' bring about war the
American people would not justify
the additional taxation and the en
listment of men to participate in it.
senator Poindexter asserted that
American participation in European
controversies must necessarily mean
the participation by Europe' in the
adjustment of' American questions
'.'such as the Mexican question." Such
provision, he declared,' was "abhorrent
to those who are familiar with
American doctrines and can only lead
to bitterness and .unnecessary con

WASHINGTON, Feb. 29. Republic-,
an senators irreconcilably opposed
to the peace treaty took vigorous
measures again today to block iny
modification of the article 10 reser
vation adopted last November and
which has since proved the greatest
barrier ;to all compromise negotia
tions. , '
Feeling that the republican leaders,
unaoie to obtain enough votes to
ratify the treaty with the reservation
unchanged, might consent to some
modiflcaton, the irreconcilables served
notice through Senator Borah. reDub
lican of Idaho, that unless the pro
vision were kept as it stands they
would, reserve liberty of action when
consideration of the treaty is re
sumed tomorrow.
Votes Counted On.
The new ultimatum, similar in na
ture to one laid down by the irrec
oncilables during the bi-partisan com
promise negotiations, was presented
directly to the party leader, Senator
Lodge, who is expected to confer with
his colleagues tomorrow. The votes
of the irreconcilables have been
counted on to Insure a majority for
the republican reservation programme.
as was the case in November, and the
move today Is expected to receive very
serious consideration.
Just what the irreconcilables might
do to wreck the plans of the repub
lican leaders was' not revealed. It was I
suggested in some quarters, however,
that if they chose to do so the irrec
oncilable group might easily debate
the treaty at such length that action
could be blocked until the assembling
of the national political conventions
That result;- in the opinion of many
senators, would preclude any possibil
lty of ratifying until the issue had
been fought out In the campaign.
Filibuster Possible.
When the senate takes up the treaty
again tomorrow, it will have before
it the reservation relating to settle
ment of domestic questions under the
league of nations. By the unanimous
consent agreement reached Saturday,
a vote on this provision is to be at 2
P. M., and unless the plans of the
leaders miscarry it will be adopted in
the same form as at the last session
of congress.
Many senators predicted tonight
that if no actual filibuster developed
the entire list of reservations would
be disposed of and a rote taken on
he treaty itself within the next 10
days.
the council wanted of the exports was f
not explained, but It Is officially an
nounced tonight that the council has .
agreed to deal with the situation im-

boon after his graduation from
Harley College. London, England, he
was ordained minister at the famou
New Court . Congregational church
London. A short time thereafter h
was selected to present the cause of
Congo Reform and African Mission
before the people of Norway, and
toured that land with such success
that he was greeted by enormous
crowds a4 every meeting.
In 1908. under the auspices of the
Colonial Missionary Society, he was
sent to New Zealand and for three
years labored as a missionary among
the Maoris, where his experiences
ware novel and thrlllinc.
In 191,6 he returned to England and
served for three years at Wood Street
Congregational church, Cardiff, South
Wales, the biggest Congregational
church In the British Empire. It was
wnne here that he fell one of the
early victims of the great 1918 flu

had not fully recovered when he ac
cepted a call to the Queen's Road Con
gregatlonal church, St. John's, New.
foundland, where his forceful preach
ing soon attracted record congretta-

The strain of this work unon his
undermined constitution proved too
severe and he suffered a nervous
breakdown, from which now, how
ever, ,he has completely recovered.
Moved by a'deslre to serve his fellow
men he has recently written a letter
that tells how he was restored to
health and strength.
Moved by Gratitude
This letter, addressed to The Tan-
lac Co., Atlanta, Ua., is an eloquent
expression of gratitude and is as follows:
"Gentlemen: Your medicine, known
as 'Tanlac,' has been such an In
estimable blessing to me, that I feel
constrained to write and tell you so.
In October, 1918, while a minister of

church, Cardiff, South Wales, I had a
severe attack of the Spanish influ
enza, from the effects of which I
never' fully recovered. I lost twenty
eight pounds In weight and was un
able to recover my usual energy. '
Then, in February, 1919, I became
the minister of the Queen's Rond Con

Thousands Have Discovered
Di Edwards' Olive Tablets
Are a Harmless Substitute
Dr Edwards' Olive Tablets are the
result of Dr. Edwards' determination
not to treat liver and bowel complaint
with calomel. For 17 years he used
these tablets (a vegetable compound
mixed with olive oil) in hia private
practice with great success.
They do all the pood that calomel
does but have no bad after eflects. No
pains, no griping, no injury to the
gums or danger from acid foods yef
they stimulate the liver and bowels.
Take" Dr Edwards' Olive Tablets
when you feel "loiry" and "heavy "

Fruit Growing an
Important Oregon Industry
Many years ago, Oregon began producing fruit commer
cially; today this industry is one of her greatest assets.
Still the."land of red apples," vOregon is alco the land of
cherries,, prunes, grapes," peaches, apricots, and berries; of
walnuts, filberts and chestnuts. ' " ' .
Western Oregon, famous for prunes, besides. hundreds of
trees annually coming into bearing, has about 20,000 acres
of bearing trees, representing conservatively $12,000,000.
Last year, with 'a light crop,, 3000 tons 'of- delectable Royal Ann
Lambert cherries were marketed m Oregon.
Berry raising'is very profitable for the man on small acreage, and with hun
dreds of acres of logged-off land available, will develop tremendously.- Oregon
in 1919 produced 5 per .cent of the total tonnage of strawberries in America, '
and as an income-producer the loganberry is a top-notcher. ' i
Many packing and marketing organizations ' sell Oregon products in domestic
and foreign markets. The result is that the fame of Oregon as a fruit-pro-
ducing state is being firmly established in the minds of the consuming public.
Fully cognizant of the value of the fruit industry to Oregon, the Ladd & Tiltoiu
Bank will gladly further in legitimate ways the developing of world markets
for Oregon products. . "
