bell, acted according to my judgment
fully within my legal and moral rights
"A contest on the validity of my oppou-
ent's claim to the governor office be-
ing near to a conclusion, feel that
both parties to the controversy should
expedite the court proceedings as much
as possible.
Mr.. Campbell's counsel, however, has
interposed successive legal technicalities
resulting in delay and has strenuously
objected to an inspection OF the ballots.
This inspection being finally ordered by
the court, is now considerably more than
half completed and has disclosed net
gain of 9S votes in my favor. This net
gain, is, of course, sufficient when in
trodueed as evidence to offset Camp
bells alleged plurality of so several
times over.
For this reason and because ii is my
honest conviction that Campbell Is coun-
sci, once having placed their client in
the governor S chair would resort to
dilatory tactics to prolong the contest
indefinitely. ] feel wholly justified in
the position | have assumed. l desire a
speedy determination by the court of
the issue and wish above all to yield
promptly and without question to the
sentiment of the people as expressed by
their ballots. 1t is my hope that the re-
publican claimant will meet me half way
in securing such determination. II
would be virtually immaterial whether
Campbell or myself should win the con
test If the issue should be tied up in
, litigation for year and half or two
years, during which time one or the 9th
er should remain in office under {
clouded title.

ALKALI MAKES SOAP
BAD FOR WASHING HAIR

* 4 x x x x x X X X x x x X X
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkah, which is very
injurious, as it dries the scalp and
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap,
and beats the most expensive soaps or
anything else all to pieces You can
get this at any drug store, and a few
ounces will last the whole family for
months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is
all that is required. 1t makes an abun-
dance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses
thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The
hair dries quickly and evenly, and is
soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy
and easy to handle. Besides, it loos-
ems and takes out every particle of
dust, dirt and dandruff.

diplomacy, especially the secret por-

the biggest airing since the days of
the armed ship warning resolution
fight last winter, if Senator Hitchcock
and his colleagues insist on adoption
of his resolution endorsing President
wilson's note to the belligerents.
Senator Harding of Ohio openly de-
clared to the United Press today he
believes the endorsement never will
pass, "because the movement was con
ceived and executed in secrecy and
because even members of the senate
foreign relations committee, were not
consulted
Republican members threatened op-
enly today to keep up their fight to
relegate the resolution to the foreign
committee, but, failing in that, to
fight for debate--and plenty of it.
Debate would necessarily mean, ae-
cording to the republicans, that the
whole recent diplomatic game would
come in for thorough discussion.

prepare an amendment to the proposed

The request was made to Chambers

During the hearing Senator Under

program to the peonage law.
Judge Chambers was an unexpected

systems-kings against peoples. If our enemy win, kings will dominate the world, because no democracy fights with or for them. The Prussian autocrat and the brutal Turk will i'm pose upon us their wills, tell us what we may do. what we may not do, and the horrors and atrocities of Belgium and Armenia leave .c doubt what this means. Government of the people,
 by tn epeople, and for the people will perish from the earth" In this sense this is truly a war of absolute and complete extermination not of peoples but of systems and so far as human sight can pie the future the life of one system or the other waits on the result.
 Thus our n very life came to be
 bound up in the outcome of this war long before we entered it, and even years before the war broke. To the man of wis on it is as clear as sunlight that the a:,a and the plan of the Inn perial Go ,rnment was and is to con- quer the world, nation by nation It was first to defeat France and Russia, next to dominate Great Britain, and with Europe at it's feet to turn to America. "Kultur" and the German
 sword were to rule around the world.
 We have been thus forced by the Inn perial Government itself to choose
 whether, in addition to suffering out rage and plunder, we should calmly wait to be crushed ourselves in due time and at the pleasure of the royal will, or should make common cause with those who already fought for us as well as for themselves, to the end that autocratic domination over all
 mankind should not come to pass.
 With all this before them Congress the chosen representatives of the peo- pie, exercising their constitutional du-
 ty and with a realizing sense of their great responsibility announced in joint resolution "that the state of war be- tween the United States and the I'm perial German Government which has been thrust upon the United States is hereby formally declared" and that ito bring the conflict to successful termination all the resources of the country are hereby pledged"
 Those Unwilling to Sacrifice
 Unworthy to Enjoy Liberty This is our promise to those we help. our warning and threat to those we i fight. Our own fair name is bound up
 in this pledge. Our honor demands that it be met to the full measure.
 From the time Congress and the Pres
 ident thus spoke for us it became the
 duty, moral and legal, of each of us
 to abate nothing that lay within his
 power to make our pledge good | Whatever our views, whatever our
 sympathies heretofore had been, the
 quarrel was now our quarrel, and we
 must be true to it in order to be true
 to ourselves. That this meant that

The man who is unwilling to make that sacrifice is unworthy the l.tcrties he enjoys and unwelcome in our Ii Est.

 To Be No Halfway Measures in
 Combating DisIoyaIty in U. s.
 I have purposely moved slowly and with caution in invoking the strong arm of the law for seeming disloyalty, believeing that more mature consid- eration would show the occasional az itator that he was wrong and the rest of us were right. However, I shall not be half measured in undertaking the control of those who persist in their disloyalty and schemings against the Government and it's purposes. The Federal Government is not pow erless to handle such malcontents. Amongst other offenses, it can pros ecute those who willfully make or con vey false reports or false statements, when the United States is at war, with intent to interfere with the op- eration or success of the military or naval forces of the Federal Govern ment, or to promote the success of our country's enemies; also those who willfully cause, or attempt to cause, insubordination, disloyalty, mutiny, or refusal of duty, or willfully obsruct the recruiting or enlistment service of the United States; also those who un- lawfully combine or conspire to i'm pede, obstruct, or prevent the execu- tion of the laws of the United States; also those who undertake to overawe the officers of the United States in per forming their duties, either by direct or intimidation or threats, or by in- turing their persons or property; also those who engage in seditious con- spiracies to overthrow or levy war against the Government or forcibly op- pose it's authority.
