PARIS, Aug. 6. (Special Cable.)
France, more than any other great
power, would suffer were the bolshe
vik! to crush Poland out of exist
ence. She would lose at once an
essential link in the much-advertised
"cordon sanitaire," so laboriously
built up aeainst bolshevism by ex
Foreign Minister Pichon, as a
valuable ally against Germany in the
event of future aggression by the de
feated but untamed Reich. But the
possible loss of Poland is of less con
cern to the French government, grave
though it would be, than the state of
affairs that would surely develop in
Germany if the Soviets were to estab
lish themselves on her eastern fron
tier. All the arrangements recently con
eluded at Spa for German disarma
ment would "go by the board." With
millions of red soldiers at her gates
Germany would risk allied occupation
of the Ruhr valley the penalty pre
scribed for her failure to reduce her
military strength rather than leave
her eastern provinces unprotected.
Already, without awaiting the con
sent of the supreme council, the Ber
lin government has sent the reichs
wehr into Allenstein. . and has con
veniently closed its eyes to the illegal
formation of irregular bands organ
ized by the Junker landlords in
Silesia. Important eastward move
ments of th3 Slchereits Polizei regi
ments also are rumored.
Winston Churchill's idea of pitting
the Germans against the bolshevists
has aroused violent opposition in the
French press, but thinking French
men are asking themselves now
whether such a development is not
likely to be brought about through
sheer force of circumstances and
whether, if Germany became the only
buffer between, them and the reds, the
allies could afford to make the Ger
mans disarm.
Meanwhile the German population
of upper Silesia is in a panicky con
dition through a decade of invasion
of that province by fugitive Polish
troops.
Coal Agreement Vital
The Poles, the Stlesians affect to
believe, will try to make Silesia their
base for reorganization of their shat
tered army and the point of departure
for their counter drive against the
bolshevists, should the troubled situ
ation in that region resolve itself
into open disorder. The effect upon
the coal protocol signed at Spa would
be serious. The Germans finally
agreed to the coal deliveries demand
ed by the allies at that conference,
only with the proviso that they should
obtain a certain amount of the coal
produced in the Silesian mines.
Obviously the near presence of
Trotzky's - red cohorts is not calcu
lated to assist in production of coal.
Many of them being communist, the
miners., indeed, might try to help
their bolshevist neighbors through
the medium of strikes or uprisings.
In any event the amount of coal
extracted in upper Sifesia is bound
to be reduced if the present crisis
continues much longer, which would
give the Germans an excuse for cut
ting down on their deliveries from
the Ruhr district.
It has been remarked that upon the
Moscow dictatorship depends the fu
ture of the peace framed at Ver
sailles. It is self-evident that the
anxiety so strongly felt today In Paris
and London would be dissipated im
mediately by the conclusion of an
armistice and a just peace between
Poland and soviet Russia.
In French official circles little ex
pectation that the bolshevists will
prove reasonable is entertained. The
French believe that the Soviets are
out to wipe Poland off- the map. My
own feeling, which coincides with
that of others who have visited Rus
sia within the past six months, is,
however, that Lenine and his associ
ates are far more desirous of reliev
ing their country's economic plight
through a general peace- than of
planting the red flag in Warsaw.
And it must be as plain to them as
it is to everybody else that the de
struction of Poland would make peace
with the allies impossible for a long
time to come. If Moscow means to
subjugate the Polish republic and
bring soviet Russia to the German
frontier, then Kameneff and Krassin
need never have been sent to London.
PARTIES ONLY "JAW" NOW
Continued From First Page.)
more mature consideration has come.
Iion't swallow the syrupy stuff that
is being poured out just now.
The present phase of the campaign
was expressed with perfect accuracy
the other day by the New York World.
It was a curiously dispassionate ut
terance to come from the World,
. which, when it is partisan, is vio
lently partisan, and which, on the
nine out of ten occasions when it is
democratic is commonly accepted as
the leading democratic organ of the
country.
Popular Interest Held Small.
"Thus far." said the World, "there
has been little popular interest in the
presidential campaign. A great deal
or noise has been made by profes
sional politicians, but the great mass
of the American people are neither
talking about politics nor thinking
about politics. For the time being
they are indifferent to both candi
dates. Senator Harding's speech of
acceptance satisfied nobody except
the reactionaries and the bitter-end
opponents of the league of nations,
and to the American people as a whole
Governor Cox is still an unknown
quantity.
"They have not yet had the oppor
tunity to take his measure. Whether
or not there is to be a real and vital
interest in the campaign will depend
on Governor Cox. He can quicken It
into liJfe or he can turn it into a color
less contest between two Ohio poli
ticians engaged in trying to sneak
into the While House through a cel
lar window."
All this is minutely true. Until
we have had a chance to digest Gov
ernor Cox' acceptance speech and un
til the public has had a chance to see
him on the stump we shall not know
whether he has any capacity either to
create great issues or to make the im
pression of a marked personality. For
the present .lacking weightier issues,
both Harding and Cox have a good
deal to say to each other about the
other fellow's campaign contributions.
Senator Harding is charging the dem
ocrats with getting, or being about
to get, large sums of money from the
"international bankers" to finance
their campaign.
Same Accused .7 Democrat.
These are the same international
bankers who. less than two months
ago, were being charged by the dem
ocratic leaders and the democratic
papers with pulling the wires that
dominated the republican convention.
The International bankers seem to
catch it coming and catch it going.
The truth is the international bankers
had less access to the forces which
dominated the republican convention
than the office boy. And the equal
truth is that if any international
bankers are disposed to give money
to the democratic campaign fund.
Chairman White would very much like
to know the address of these sources
of benevolence. For on the day this
is written Mr.- White is scurrying
about New Tork trying to get enough
money together to meet payrolls.
The democrats are broke- The dem
ocratic leaders talk about this condi
tion as if it were a thing to be proud
of. They regard an empty treasury
as a virtue. But the fact is the dem
ocrats aren't any more virtuous than
the republicans. They are merely less
businesslike. The republicans have
money because the republican man
agement has handled things with
businesslike qualities and business
like qualities include forehandedness.
More Spent by Democrats.
The fact is that in the four years
since 1916 the democratic national
committee has received and spent
more money than the republican na
tional committee. Starting with an
empty treasury at the close of the
1916 campaign, the democrats have
taken in since that date a little more
than J2.000.00U and the republicans
have taken in and spent a little less.
But the democrats have been managed
in a much less businesslike way.
In the first place, the democrats
started the 1916 campaign with a con
siderable deficit and it took them
some months to collect enough 'money
to overcome that. Then the demo
cratic chairman embarked on a most
ambitious scheme of money collect
ing. They hired three floors in a busi
ness block at Washington and then
installed a plant not unlike the head
1 office of a big corporation. The of
ficer had clerical help by the score.
They had a dozen printing presses and
more than 100 electric typewriters.
They undertook to make a card index
of the 20 or 30 leading democrats in
every one of the 103,000 election pre
cincts in the country. They under
took to classify all these democrats
according to the quality of their
earthly possessions, their incomes and
the degree of their susceptibility to
appeals for money. It was intended
to be, and it would have been, an ef
ficient permanent system for collect
ing campaign funds from year to year.
Half Million Put In Scheme.
The scheme was started and was
kept up for a year or two. Fully half
of the million dollars was invested in
it. Then the persons who were in
power in the party organization dis
approved it and the whole investment
was scrapped. That left the party
without funds and without any ma
chinery for bringing in collections.
From that time until the present
the democrats have kept going by
calling meetings of their rich friends
once in every so often and beguiling
the generous into giving or pledging
money. The net of it is that the
demoocratic committee begins the
campaign with nothing in the treas
ury and with a deficit of something
more than $100,000 and with consid
erably more due and overdue to
wealthy democrats who advanced
money to tide things over.
If the republicans are In better
shape than this, and they are, it is
merely because they are more busi
nesslike and forehanded. The repub
lican national committee under the
management of Will Hays is conduct
ed with keen devotion to business
principles. The republicans don't al
low deficits . to accumulate. They
either have the money oisknow where
it is coming from before they spend it.
Efficiency Shown Elaevt-here.
In another respect the republicans
have been more efficient than the
democrats. The democrats have just
changed their national chairman. A
chairman comes along without any
experience in managing the organiza
tion. He must get together the funds
necessary to run the campaign and
must do it quickly, because the elec
tion is less than three months off. He
hardly could do it. .It is a physical
impossibility to get an effective ma
chine under way in proper time.
The republicans, however, were
more forehanded. INIpre than six
months ago the republicans had an
informal agreement among them
selves to the effect that no matter
who the candidate should be. Will
Hays should be the national chair
man. The result was that Will Hays
was able to look forward and plan.
He was able to lay out a skeleton or
ganization and within a week after
the republican convention he was able
to have an efficient machine working
in perfect order.
Doubtless a good deal-will be said
about money as the campaign goes
on. Mr. McAdoo declares that there
must be pitiless publicity for all con
tributions. That is sound enough, but,
broadly speaking, an experienced re
porter is not able to get as excited
about this matter of money contribu
tions as the politicians try to make
the public believe they are. Broadly
speaking, both parties and all politi
cians get as much money together
as they can. If the republicans get
more, it is only because they go about
the collection of it in a more busi
nesslike way. The facts will show
that the democrats have received and
have spent more money in the last
four years than the republicans have.
Incidentally, it is a curious fact that
Mr. Cox is the first millionaire who
ever received the presidential nomi
nation.
Cox Has Million Ready.
If the information which the news
paper men receive from Cox, Cox'
neighbors and associates is correct.
he could chip in a million dollars or
so to the democratic campaign fund
without being embarrassed to meet
next month's rent. No other candi
date for president in recent years had
anything near that much money.
Wilson entered the presidency with
out any money whatever. When Taft
left the presidency he was rather re
lieved to get the assured salary of
professorship at Yale. Roosevelt died
worth something like half a million
dollars, but more -than half of that
came to him after he had left the
presidency. McKinley was practical
ly a penniless man.
Bryan was penniless when he began
to run for the presidency and Bryan
has not as much money now as peo
ple commonly think he has. You could
go a long way back before finding
presidential candidate as comfortable
financially as Cox has made himself
during the past few years.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6. American
Consul Boyle at Mexicali, Mexico, was
instructed by the state department to
day to co-operate with the United
States military commander at Calex
ico, Cal, in preventing the smuggling
of war materials across the border. -
The instructions were issued under
President Wilson's proclamation of
July 1, 1919, forbidding the exporta
tion of arms and munitions of war to
Mexico.
In response to an informal inquiry
through the American embassy at
Mexico City regarding the possibility
of closing the American ports on the
Lower California front, the depart
ment, it was said today, has taken the
stand that such closure is impossible
without congressional action.
Every effort is being made by the
department, it was officially an
nounced today, to prevent infractions
of the United States neutrality laws,
either by American residents or
aliens residing on the American side
of the front.
General Pablo Gonzales, one of the
former anti-Carranza leaders and un

R0XY FILING REJECTED
Lewis County Auditor Insists on
Personal Declaration.
CHEHALIS, Wash., Aug. 6. (Spe
cial.) Eva Knight, Lewis county au
ditor, today rejected the filing by
Ralph Swayne of Coal Creek of the
name of J. E. Willis as a candidate
for superior judge of Lewis county.
Swayne is president of the Private
Soldiers' and' Sailors' league here and
Willis' filing would indicate that
radicals expect to have a candidate
for judge. Willis ran four years ago
and lost out, but his candidacy was a
deciding factor in defeating Judge
A. E. Rice, who was a candidate for
re-election. For two years Willis
has been in Washington, D. C, em
ployed in the interior department.
Miss Knight held that Willis himself
must sign the petition.
A. S. Cory today filed for repre
sentative from Lewis county. He is
former Chehalls banker and will
enter the republican primaries.

S83.21. The Supple-Ballin company
allege that this sum is due them for
shipbuilding material taken from
their shipyard during January, Feb

The Willamette Iron & Steel com
pany also filed suit against the
Northwest Steel company, the exact
sum not specified, for the. balance
of money said to be owing them
from the Northwest Steel.
The Willamette Iron & Steel com
pany states in the complaint that
prior to August 1, 1917, eight con
tracts were entered into, whereby
the defendant agreed to provide the

In all the fighting that has been going on in Eastern Europe and in the negotiations
involving Moscow and Warsaw and Paris and London there is but one certainty, observes
the New York Globe, that is, that the situation is approaching what we may call a " show
down." "Shaking hands with murder" is Lord Northcliffe's phrase, but as the New York
Sun is forced to agree the murderer is now in a position to say whether we shall shake
hands with him or whether war -weary Western Europe must take arms against him.
Strange as it may seem, says the Sun, " the international vagabond of 1919 has gained the
amazing position of being in control of European stability, and perhaps of World stability,
in the year 1920."
The Russian situation is the biggest problem that America and the rest of the world
have to face today, and in the leading article in THE LITERARY DIGEST for August

Now la aa Excellent Time to Jet Rid
of Ita TortBTM.
Victims of rheumatism should take
advantage' of the warm season which
is so favorable to the proper treat
ment for this painful ailment.
Rheumatism is more than a mere
local disorder confined to the locality
of the painful parts. It cannot be
rubbed away, because it is a deep
seated disease that has its source
in the blood supply. The tiny pain
demons, the millions of little disease
germs that cause the disease, must
be reached and eliminated from the
blood before real relief can be had.
S. S. S. has been successfully used
for rheumatism for more than 60
years. It is the most thorough and
reliable blood remedy because it
searches out and eliminates all dis
ease germs which infest the blood.
Go to your drug store and get a
bottle of S. S. S. today, and begin to
take a rational, sensible treatment
for rheumatism that will show re
sults. For free expert medical ad
