The draft hasn't taken the punch out of the Cleveland club, despite the fact that it has made serious in roads. Speaker, Chapman, Roth, Graney and other veterans remain on the job, so all is well. Speaker and Chapman, however, are liable to be called for service.

however, Not a little of this seed of
discomfort was sown by the last two
Republican presidents. During their
two terms much was said about the
greed and rapacity of special interests
and of the necessity of revising the
tariff downward in order to deal eff
fectively with 'unscrupulous monop-
olists.
That the Economist and a powerful
element in this country today are
striving to capture the Republican
party and make it much more con-
servative than it was under the Taft
administration, is indicated by the
criticism of Mr. Taft for his radical
ism" contained in the above para
graph. Others working with them are
trying to accomplish the same result
by indirection. The effort is hope
less. The American people are going
forward to meet new conditions, and
those who lead must go in the van.
Upon the sanity of their leadership
much will depend for the future of
the country and the future of the race.

SOLVING LABOR QUESTION
WITHOUT ANY CONSUMPTION

Now that the merchants of the city,
at the request of farmers interested
in sugar production, have determined
to assist in the campaign for larger
acreage. it is especially gratifying to
know that they have assurances that
help will be forthcoming to cultivate
the beets when ready to harvest
One phase of this situation which
caused more or less misunderstand
ing among workmen, is in the way
OF being cleared up. Someone sug-
gested some time ago that it would
be possible to get workmen for this
essential industry as men had been
secured for the spruce camps, and
this, through misunderstanding led to
statement that men might be con-
scripted for work in the beet fields.
This naturally caused some feeling
among workmen, who rightly object
ed to the idea of being conscriptad
to work under private employers. AS

scripted to work in the spruce for

tunity to volunteer for service in the
spruce forests, but they were not
drafted for that purpose. Should the

to be wise to adopt like course to-
ward any regulated production, ar
rangements could be made and a call
for volunteers be issued, and arrange
ments made for the men indicted in
to the service by this route, to re-
ceive from the farmers, in addition to
their regular pay as soldiers, such
extra compensation as might be ar
ranged by the government In this
case none need join for farm work
unless they desired, and instead of
working directly under the private
owners, they would be under the
command of government officers and
have the protection of the govern
ment at all times.
1t is the settled policy of the pres
ent administration to refuse to con-
script men for work under private
owners, or under the orders of any
one except officers. This understand
ing will help clear away many mis-
apprehensions and maintain the con-
fidence which the laborers justly re-
pose in President Wilson and Secre-
tary of Labor Wilson.
At the same time, reasonable as
surance seems to have been given that
plenty of labor will be forthcoming
ito handle the crop without asking
men of the first classification to join
as volunteers for that purpose.

dressed himself to Mr.. Franck, voiced
the proud regret of his church people
and of the community at his loss and
extended their wishes for his contin-

Before beginning his response, Mr..
Franck asked Miss Katherine Pit
cairn to sing AT Morning, Noon and

was very effectively rendered by that
young lady. Resuming the platform,
Mr.. Franck gave an hour to an impas-
stoned appeal for higher and more
general appreciation of the gravity of
the struggle to which we have COM

Anyone in doubt as to- the adj
visibility of supporting good, whole
some entertainments during the
war has only to turn to the Chau-
tauqua history of the past summer
and study the vast amount of good
they have done in the communities
visited. Patriotism has been arous-
ed as never before. A vast amount
of valuable information has been
brought to the audiences, the music
and entertainment features acted
as balm to overhaul nerves, a
soothing tonic to tired and worried
minds. Mothers pining for absent
sons have been cheered, faltering
sons have seen their duty and an
swered the call to arms.
These wholesome lectures and en-
tertainments are going to be need

winter months. Our boys will be
taking an ever-increasing part in
the great cause Of humanity "over

intense. Winter will make outdoor
distraction practically impossible
and the people will turn to amuse-
mept places for relaxation. To meet
this NEED the local lyceum COM
mittee has arranged for an unusu-
ally attractive course.
October 10th, THE LIBERTY
GIRLS were organized to give in
taboloid form music and readings
that would have a distinctively
patriotic tone--a program that
breathes the spirit, of war time ac-

be several changes of costumes, de-
