NAME OF WILSON FOR THIRD
TERM WILDLY CHEERED.
Exigencies Of Times Call for Renom-
ination and Election.

indianapolis, Ind, June 19.-De-
claring that "the exigencies of the
times call for the denomination and
election in 1920 of Woodrow Wilson"
Samuel G. Ralston, former governor
of Indiana, permanent chairman Of
the Indiana state Democratic conven-
ton, here today brought the delegates
to their feet waving flags and cheer
ing. The demonstration lasted for
several minutes.
Vice-President Marshall, as tenn
porary chairman, delivered the key
note address.
Support only the Democrat who is
whole-heartedly behind the president
and the way he proposes to win the
war, the vice-president said. He said
that while he wanted the Democrats
to win the coming election, Eat the
risk of being read out of the party" !"
he urged the members of the state to
vote against the Democrat who was
not in hearty accord with the presi-
dent and his ideas and against the
Democrat "who is not in favor of
taking the German language out of
the schools of Indiana and welding
into united people, by the use of a
common language, all those who dwell
within our borders.
"Just what the Republican party
means by saying that it's purpose is
to win the war now most of US do
not understand" said the vice-presi-
dent. "What the Democratic party
stands for is to win the war as soon
as it can be won, and it holds that to
the speedily winning of it are these
essentials: Conviction Of justice of
the cause in which we are engaged; a
fixed and definite end to be attained
the whole-hearted, disinterested, poll
tical and patriotic sacrifice of person
al ambition, party preferment and
individual success to the object at
tanned and confidence, absolute con-
fidence, in the commander-in-chief.' :

The report of the treasury department on profiteering shows staggering figures, and worst of all these war profits of thousand per cent and more cover every necessity of life, especially food products. It Is out rageous that these things should be, with the people generally facing the constantly increasing high cost of all kinds of food. The history of these fast advancing prices shows that where the war has added five or ten or even twenty per- cent to the cost of an article, fifty to one hundred per cent more Is tackled on for excess profits and good measure. Only prices fixed by the government can stop this fattening upon human flesh and blood and patriotism. After all is said and done, 1t is the man up on salary who Is being hit hardest by the war. The farmer, merchant and manufac turer, all these must bear added burdens in one way and another but they also re- ceive added benefits in one way and an other but the man in town on salary IS gouged upon every hand. His only and one means of resistance against the tide is the increase of that salary. The war cry Swat the Profiteerl will soon be added to that of Swat the Hunl In classification they should rank about the same.

WORK OR FIGHT-ALL THE TIME,
 ALL THE WAY

Senator Reeds amendment to the work or fight order of the government strikes straight home. The draft committee of congress in commenting upon 1t declares:
 It seems to the committee that in view of the fact that we are about to use the drafting of boys between 8 and 2 as well as those above 2 up to and including over 45, and providing for the exemption of men between l 6 and 45 who are engaged in use ful and necessary occupations from actual service in the ranks, that when any are ex- empted solely for that cause, their services are more valuable to the nation in the pro- duction of things essential to the prosecu- ton of the war, and that when they cease in good faith to follow the essential occu- patton, they ought to be subject to the draft as in other cases.
 The young man not engaged in these occupations must wear the uniform, enter the ranks and bare his breast to the weap- ons of the German army. He cannot re- fuse to work even for an hour, and IS com pelled to fight whether he feels disposed to do so or nO:.
 In view of this, when a young man is exempted from the draft solely Tn order that he may engage in an essential industry, he ought to continue in that employment in good faith while any grievance is being adjusted by the industrial board, and if he fails to do so he ought to be subject to draft
 The provision does not pretend to inter fere with the right of any man to cease labor when any man pleases to do so, but simply says to him that if he does cease he shall, under such regulations as the presi- dent may prescribe. subject himself to the draft as though he had not been exempted in the first instance

 Senator Sutter told of his struggle to reach his present station. Born ir Minnesota he was the son of blind harness maker, wlo never saw the face of his child He told of the re- moyal of the family to Nebraska and of his early life on a farm, of coming to Bisbee and making the money by working in the mines, to pay for his legal education.
 Senator Sutter denied several stOr- ies that are being spread about him.

 Al this point there was a general craning of necks and many faces were turned toward a tall, willowy man formerly a resident of Graham coun- ty. who sat in the crowd.
 Time and again the senator was cheered as he made telling points in his speech.

 to the plan is that the companies de- sire the men to be paying them in- terest for the whole 100 months. This is not so, as provision is made that a man can pay up as quickly as he de- siTes, 100 months being the maximum time allowed.
 The plan evolved by the architect of the mining companies is very differ ent from the usual plan of mining camps, which consists of rows of small houses, all of them the same in interior plan and outside decoration. h the new plan, however, the houses will all be different, as they will have incorporated into them the individual .deas of the owners. This method makes a lot more work For the archi- tect in charge, but it also makes a much finer residential district
 Mir. Jesse Yoakum. who has been au- thorized by the companies to take ap- plications will have special hours at his office during this week. The ap- plicauons received during the week will be acted upon by a loan commit tee appointed by the two companies, and the various applicants will be noti- lied by mail as soon as it is possible 10 act. Mir Yoakum will be at the office of the Warren company from to and from to D. m, from Thurs day to Saturday, inclusive. and on Sunday from 9. a. m. until D. m. On account of the rush it is advisable to make an appointment by telephone.
 Houses Are Different
 The plan evolved by the architect of the mining companies for the new houses in Warren is very different from the usual plan of mining camp houses. The latter usually consist of rows of small houses, all the houses the same in interior plan and outside finish In the new plan of the c. & A. and the Copper Queen however, the houses will all be different, as they will have incorporated into them the individual ideas os the owners. Of course this method makes a great deal more work for the architect, but it also makes a much finer residential district
 Practically every man who has family has thought of the time when he will have a home of his own-when he will be through with monthly wis its from the landlord. where he may develop his own gardens, and have a place in which he feels a keen person al interest. The opportunity present ed by the above plan makes this even easier than he ever anticipated.

Only a soothsayer or reader of riddles would presume to discuss the Russian sit uation at this time, and yet it may well be of vital importance for or against the al- lied cause But it is too muddled and mixed and vague and voodooed to consider in the light of all news from there up to this date. No information has been given to the pub lie as to just how many allied soldiers are marching to the relief of the Czecho-Slavs and no one seems to know how many of the latter are in arms. How many German soldiers are in Russia? Have Trotsky and Lenine been really driven away? No one who knows will say anything aboutit As for this column, it will never take the least stock in Russian aid until that coun- try has purged itself of Trotsky and Lenine. Only by the bayonet and the steel jacketed ball can the allies win any governmental aid in their efforts to free that nation from German slavery as long as these two Ger man agents are allowed to control affairs.
