Hamilton) (United Press Staff Correspondent) ' New York, Sept. 4. Due to the be lated efforts of the New York Y'aukees the White Sox today are so far in the vau iu the scrap for Baa Johnston's peanant that only a near miracle can now keep Charley Komiskey from cash ing in a big stack of blues. Evidently tiie Y'aukees thoueht it all over and decided to help their brother i-oio urouauers. Knowing that a series uetweeu row xorn and Chicago would bo the next best thing to a series be tween the Yankees and the Cubs, tliey went into the thing wVu such gusto that they, corralled two games in a single day, almost as many as it is their habit to win in a week. At the same tini6, the White Sox stepped on the Tigers for two niort victories and are :rtow leading the procession bv six niii n half -games. to win the pennant now the Red Sox will have to inaugurate a strenk n win ning that will account for nearlv verv one of their remaining 28 games. The vvnuu oox nave i'u games left on their schedule, so about all they have, to worry about is an -even break. . ) On September 21 the two teams' will moct iu their farewell appearance nf the season on the Boston battleground. it is not .indicated now, but the Red Sox may draw close enough to make it decidedly interesting for the pale hose at that time.

READY FOR SOLDIERS MAYOR THOMPSON TAKING THINGS EASY Chicago Reichstag On Ac count of Absentees Cannot l Indorse Governor Chicago, Sept. 4. Mayor Thompson, mniling and apparently indifferent this afternoon was referoeing an attempt by the city council to censure him for .permitting the People's Council for de mocracy and terms of peuco to meet in this city, Alderman Toman and five others were trying to show through a resolu tion endorsing Governor Lowden 's nc. tiou in sending state troops to Chicago to disperse the pacifists conference. They only succeeded in entangling themselves in a parliamentary maze, from which thoy were vninly trying to extricnto themselves nfter Bevornl hours spirited debate. There were but forty eight of the fifty six aldermen present and Thomp Hon'g opponents lacked the necessary strength to force decisive action. The resolution went to commit tec, was brought buck and was committee , again sent to Thompson in Limelight Chicago, Sept. 4. The People's Conn cil for democracy and terms of peaco today had resigned the center of the stngo to William Halo Thompson, may or of tho "sixth German city of tho world. " The pacifist organization, whoso meetings (Saturday uud Sunday resulted in the despatch of state troops to Chi cago, was slowly disintegrating as dol egiites left for their respective cities. As interest in tho "peace doves" declined, it veered to the situation con fronting tho mayor, who defied Govern or Lowden by ordering police protec tion for the People's Council after the governor had banned them. Following a conference here last night with Adjutant General Dickson, commanding the four companies of state militia ruslied to this city from Springfield, Governor Lowden issued a statement to the American people in which he branded tho People's Council as a " treasonable conspiracy." 'If we lose tins war, real free Bpeech will he lost and this society, wlncti now claims the privilege, will contrib ute to that result, ' he said. "What I have saiil ol' the so called council for democracy and peaco applies equally to other organizations which nmy seek to obstruct the government iu tho pros ecution of this war."

JOURNAL WANT ADS PAK Passes Resolutions to This Ef fect and Urges Other Bodies to Do the Same There seems to be some hitch rela tive to tho proposed work of deepening the channel of lock No. 1 at Oregon City. It seems that the materials are on tne ground and crews ready to be gin work, but nothing is being done on account of some influence holding uo the work whereby boats of larger size I could, run beLween Salem and Portland. To bring this matter to the atten- tion of the right authorities and to also show Salem 's interest in the deep-! ened channel, the following resolutions were passed by the directors of the Salem Commercial club: . ! Whereas, water transportation on the Willamette river has been hindered for many years by reason of the depth of the water in lock No. 1, Oregon' City locks; and Whereas, strong water competition to points south of Oregon City is for this reason prevented; and " ! Whereas, the congress of the United States has this year, through the ef-: forts of Congressman W. C. Hawley appropriated the sum of $80,000, to cor rect the fault; and Whereas, the government has a crew and equipment now ready to prosecute this work; and Whereas, efforts are being made to prevent the United States engineers from doing the work provided for bv said .appropriation for reasons which i do not appear to be for the greatest j good to the greatest number; j Now, therefore, be it resolved, that I the Commercial club of Salem at a ! meeting of the board of directors, duly! convened, strongly recommend that the!

I cannot say too much in be half of the great benefit derived by the chiropractic adjustments given by Dr. O. L. Scott. I came here to this city one year ago last October with a nervous breakdown caused by pneumonia, which threw me into spasms. I was in about as low a condition as humanity could be in. Final ly I was advised to go to Dr. Scott and take a few adjust ments. At first I was not able to go to his office. He came to my home. I took thirteen ad justments and was a new man. I soon secured a position at hard manual labor on a farm and con tinued without one break until "the present time. I have felt the best I have for years. Cer tainly chiropractic discoveries are one of the greatest means of physical restoration. I recom mend it to all that are troubled with any nerrous disorder. Rev. F. A. MEADE, 010 Shipping St., Salem, Ore. TO WHOM IT MAY CONCEEN: I can truthfully say what chiropractic treatment has done for me. I was almost blind when I went to Dr. O. L. Scott for treatment for pressure on the optie nerves. -Previous to my visit to Dr. Scott I had beon operated on for this complaint seven times but had secured no relief. Now I can see to read, to do my work and really enjoy life asd I owe it all to the chiroprac tic system of treatment and Dr. O. L. Scott. Mrs. Ada Bowen, Chehalis, Wash. 1 Oregon. Dr. O. L.
