WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov. g.
What promises to be one of the great
es political battles in the history of
America has been fairly launched
with Bryan's declaration of war on
the presidents program of prepared
ness now before the country.
When congress meets in December
the struggle will be on principles and
not personalities.
Each side has promised to carry the
campaign to the people, and both are
determined to avoid even the appear
ance of breach personally.
The nation must decide whether the
war in Europe teaches that prepara-
tion makes for peace or provokes
war.
Many here believe that the presi-
dent will need some Republican votes
in order to put his measure through.

Failure on the part of NJ. A. Leddy.
former state treasurer to meet the
demand which has been made upon
him by State Treasurer Stocker and
State Auditor Mulnix for settlement
Of the shortage of S9,S60 recently
found in the treasurer's office, may
result in court action to collect the
sum due the state, says the Denver
Post. The shortage in the treasurer S
office, which occurred during the last
administration, was discovered sew
eral months ago. Demand was made
upon Leddy to settle, but so far Leddy
has refused to pay the claim. The only
step which he has taken has been to
made demand upon the bondsmen of
julius A. Clark, former bookkeeper
in the treasurer's office who commit
ted suicide last April, to pay to him
the sum which was found short.
Under the law Leddy could not collect
this sum because he has not yet paid
anything out to the state. Clark was
