The contractor who is paving Salem

Some paper has begun the revival of
the dispute about when the twentieth
century began. This is zero in occu-

know is when the dawn Of world free

nothingness in comparison.

Believes in the People,

I stand against injustice, extortion
or oppression Of any kind whatsoever.
] believe in the people. My sympathies
are with the toiler, whether he be in
the field, the factory or engaged i'll
commerce. All classes should have an
equal voice in our government and III
the settlement of the social and
economic problems of reconstruction.
The cost of this great war should be
paid by those best able to pay, both
during the progress of the war as well
as after. All persons should pay their
just and equitable share in proportion
to their ability to pay. Men have
been and are now being drafted to
carry on this struggle in behalf of
liberty. Wealth whether in the hands
of the individual or the corporation
must be called upon to aid the govern
ment in conducting the war. Reason
able profits should be allowed to all
producers, but no person OF corpora
ton should unreasonably profit by the
war. Taxation measures should be
passed that will produce the greatest
amount of revenue and stfll preserve
industrial enterprises. Those who pro-
fit by the war must expect to pay q
large proportionate share Of the cost
of this great conflict.
Should 7 be elected to Congress, my
pledge to the people of this district
is a pledge Of loyalty to the nation,
loyalty to the people whom I hope to
represent with honor in the greatest
law-making body in the world
I respectfully submit for your
consideration the above statement of
the principles upon which my candi-
dacy is based.

pared for peace, as we were for war.
Time and thought should be given to
the great economic and social prob
lens and great interest should be
shown in the future affairs of those
sturdy, brave, young men, our loyal
sons and brothers, who are sacrificing
all on the altar Of liberty.
Although in favor of adequate ap-
for winning the war, am
opposed to the diversion Of any part
of these funds to the greedy profiteer.
This great struggle for liberty should
not be used as a cloak for any individ-
ual or corporation to become wealthy.
Reasonable profits to all productive
enterprises should be encouraged.
Strict laws should be passed curbing
profteering and ill-gotten and unrea-
sonable profits should be taken away
from those guilty of obtaining them.
During this great crisis, conservation
has become a watch word. Conserva-
tion has been accomplished largely by
cooperation. The united efforts of the
men in the office and the worker in the
factory have aided our government and
its allies by the increased production
of war munitions and supplies. The
farmer has shown the social and econ.
omic value of cooperation. Communi-
ty clubs organized for various pur-
poses; cooperative cheese factories and
creameries have shown great benefits.
By such organizations and cooperation
the farmers have added to the wealth
of the state and to the convenience
of the consumer. Such cooperative
enterprises and efforts along similar
lines should be encouraged as part
of the movement for conservation.
Some system should be worked out
by a marketing commission or other
means by which the waste in the
present plan of distribution of farm
produce to the ultimate customer
could be eliminated By doing this
and by passing proper legislation, the
consumer would be able to buy his
goods at a fair price and the pro.
Queer would derive a fair profit.

Violations OF Rule As To License
Number.

Much trouble is reported from H.
censees who have overlooked the
Food Administration rule, which re-
quires the licensee to place on every
contract, order. acceptance of order,
invoice, price list and quotation is
sued or signed by him relating to food
commodities the words United
States Food Administration License
Number" following by the number Of
his license. Licensees are forbidden
to deal with persons subject to license
who have failed to secure such license,
or to comply with the above rule.
When large Richmond firms clerk
by mistake mailed out many hundred
invoices without the license number
on hem, as provided by this rule, the
Washington authorities had to be ap-
pcaled to and convinced of good faith
and honest mistake before a way
could be found out Of the trouble.

a MONUMENT TO TAZEWELL
SOLDIERS.

AT the memorial meeting held i'm
Graham last Sunday the suggestion
was made that the people of Graham
erect {. monument to the memory of
Private McCcrackcn, the first Taze-
we'll soldier to fall in battle in
France, in whose honor the meeting
was held. Will it not be best to posi-
pone action until the war is over?
There will be others of our brave
boys to fall at their posts We havv
no reason to expect otherwise After
the war let monument be erected
at the county seat IN honor of all
our boys, and and placed along side
the monument erected to the mem
DRY of the confederate dead, with
their names cut in the stone, if de
sirable. A monument thus publicly
placed would he seen and appreciat-
ed by all the people, whereas II mon
ument erected in private cemetery
would be isolated and hidden. 1t oc-
ours to us that the suggestion made
at Graham was premature. No doubt
the good people of that town would
gladly erect memorial as indicat-
ed, but, we believe the plan of a gen
eral monument at the county seat is
more appropriate.

Virginia. He will have no opposition

the services OF such an useful and

He has been in the Senate nearly n
quarter Of century, and is clearly
one of the most useful and one Of the

league, Senator Swanson, Junior Sen
ator from Virginia, has been appoint

STATEMENT SHOULD HAVE
BEEN QUALIFIED.

1.-THE business man who makes
money out of this war will be dis
graced forever" This strong state
ment was made by Rev George W.
Mcdaniel, says the Richmond Vir-
ginian, in recent sermon in his
church in Richmond. The Virginan
endorses the statement in an editor
ial OF course the minister did not
mean to say, broadly, that the man
who is making money now is n dis
graced citizen. He had in mind, no
doubt, (for he is always level head
ed), the proliteer, the hoardcr, the
man who eXacts eXorbitant prices
because of the war;" and not the
legitimate dealings of business men
who are satisfied with reasonable
profits in helping win the war. TO be
able to buy war stamps, etc, w,
must make money. 1t is the man who
boards, who grows rich by boarding,
who invests nothing or even small
part of his profits to help win the
war for world frcedom-this is the
man the preacher had in mind and
the one meant by his scathing re-
mark. There are few such men, let
US hope, left in this State now. Ii
there be such they should be made
feel and feel keenly that they are
unworthy the great country in which
they live.

THE WAR GOD.

The War-God has walked in the
wheatfields,
And eaten the children's bread;
The War-god went thru the orchards
And all of the trees are dead.
The War-god comes through the
whole wide world.
Like a dragon that must be fed.
Now how shall we speak to the War
god,
And what shall our prayer be?
For never prayer we know and
Will be heard by such as he!
And we have no affairs made for
Nor any psalmody.
We stand in the way of the War
god,
Where the little streams run red
We have sworn we will kill the War
God,
And will die for the word we said!
We have sworn that the fields shall
he green again,
And give the children vread!
Oh! the earth is strong, old mother,
And we look to the hour when
She will give us fields of clover and
grain,
And good, green trees again;
And fathers seeking window light,
In the old, old way of men.
Then there shall be no more War
god,
For, out through the Milkay way,
Goes host of men who nave fought
and died
To carry his name away
And drop it into the Bottomless Pit,
10 wait for the Judgment Day!

Times.
