NEW YORK, Oct. 31.-For the
first time in American history two
former republican presidents-TheO-
dore Roosevelt and William Howard
Taft-today issued a joint statement
advocating the election of a repub-
Ncan congress.
The statement declares that a re-
publican congress will be much
better qualified than one controlled
by democrats" 10 carry on the war
10 a Successful conclusion and to
accomplish a satisfactory peace.
The ex-presidents also declare
that "our country's cause was saved
BY the republican minority in con-
gress and expresses the fear that
the senate is not to be allowed its
constitutional right of ratifying the
treaty of peace which will end the
war.
AsSails Fourteen Points.
The statement assumes that the
sO-called IA points" enunciated by
stead of principles as the president
has pointed out. and the ex-presi-
dents declare that this program,
which has been unqualiiedly accept
ed by the premiers Of the allied
world as the basis Of the aspirations
Of England. France and Italy. is so
vague and general that it would
afford no treaty at all, but only 4
protocol to interminable discus
sion"
Only a republican congress will
have the courage to exact a detail
ed and accurate story" OF the ex-
penditure Of the funds which have
beer voted for the prosecution of
the war. so declares the statement.
The statement "deprecates" the
leadership Of Pres't Wilson as that
OF an unqualified autocrat and re-
pcats the inference that Pres't Will
son is the Kaiser Wilhelm of the
Trited States" when il urges the
repudiation of tre president because
''it Is one man control we are fight

together, then his profession is fine
art, and Paul is a master artist in
his profession.
MIR. Bowser was born May 26,
1886, in Kittinning, Pa, and is the
youngest of the family, having two
older brothers and two sisters. Mar
tin Bowser, his father, now 76 years
old, and his mother "a, are farmers
and Paul spent his boyhood days on
the farm, as have many other famous
athletes.
He received his education at Beaver
College, and started as an amateur
wrestler at the age of 18, and at %
became a professional. During his
career he travelled nearly all over
the U. S. and eastern Canada. He
has made many friends and of course
encountered some critics, most of
whom, are like the fellow who hated
bear-bating, not because it gave pain
to the bear but because it gave
pleasure to the spectators.
l look at the wrestling game in
this way, we were made for enjoy
ment and the world is filled with
things which we may enjoy unless
we are too proud to be pleased with
them or too grasping to care for
what we can not turn to other ac-
count than mere delight.

MEMBERS OF GLASS WORKERS
UNION SHOW THEIR
PATRIOTISM


The boys of the American Bottle
Co., composing the Glass Workers
Union, have decided that the time has
arrived for them to do their bit in
aiding and assisting our Great Dem
ocracy in uniting with the Dem
ocracies of the world to protect the
safety of all liberty-loving countries,
and to rid forever from this earth the
military rulers Of Germany, whose
evil ambitions are a menace to the
progress of civilization and the safety
of the world. Therefore, at the last
regular meeting of the Glass Workers
| the question of buying war sayings
stamps was discussed, and several of
the members voiced their sentiments,
stating that it was the duty of the
organization to cooperate inr pro-
noting the sale of war savings
stamps. A number Of the members
pointed out how we, the glass workers
of the American Bottle Co., had CO.
operated with the local committees
in floating the Liberty Loans, and
also, if the good citizens of Newark
will remember, how earnest and un-
firing were the efforts Of the glass
workers in bringing up the member
ship in the Red Cros.
The glass workers have done their
duty in the past, and time will prove
to the good citizens of Licking county
that they will also do their duty in
the future. We know the people of
Germany have faith in their govern
ment, and why? Because for the
past 40 years philosophers and pro-
fessors have drilled into the minds
of the German people that it was
the destiny of Germany to rule the
world. SO today we see them, the
German people, worshipping the
autocracy they have been taught to
worship.
The writer feels that in order to
meet autocracy and to keep auto
cracy from supplanting democracy it
is the duty of the American people
to be ready and willing to make
sacrifices and bear burdens. In q
word, it is our duty to worship our
Government and this great Democracy
just as much, just as strong, yes and
stronger, than the German people
have been taught to worship Auto
cracy.
This is the time to come forth and
do your duty, and we assure you that
the Glass Workers will do their duty.
+ President William Dover Of the
local glass workers, appointed the
following committee, whose duty it is
to organize clubs to buy war savings
stamps:
Theodore Page, chairman; Will
Derringer, Sec'y; Joe Dolan, Publicity;

Miss Virginia Gum, librarian at

work by forwarding all books brought

The appeal from Washington states
that new novels and good western

needed. Books by Zane Grey, Rex

popular. Miss Gum announces she

TO OFFER ONLY 70

DURING ANY MONTH
ACTIVE MAN NAMED FOB EACH
COUNTY AND THREE SUMTER
FARMERS TO BE ASKED TO CIR

ATLANTA. Ga, July 31-Prompt
action has been taken bp the Georgia
State Bureau of Markets in organic
ing the various counties of the state
for the gradual marketing of the cot
ton crop under the plan suggested by
the Cotton States Official Advisory
in Marketing Board in it's recent New
Orleans meeting.
An active man has been secured
in each County of the State as Chair
man for that County and the Bureau
is now ready to take the matter up
with each Chairman for the purpose
of bringing about local organization
and securing pledges.
The County Chairmen will be re-
quested next week to select three &C

The work of securing these pledges
will be begun within the next week
Or ten days, so that before the end
of August it is believed and hoped
that practically every district in the
State will be signed up.
This plan, it is confidently believ-
ed, will lead to a far more gradual
sale of cotton than has ever been
known at the opening of the season,
and will serve better to protect the
crop against any attempts at price
depression.

books that are turned in. She urges
the friends of soldiers and sailors,
many of whom have already respond
ed most generously, to give more
books.
The communication received by
Miss Gum from the Washington
headquarters states that over 100000
books have been sent overseas. The
supply is nearly exhausted, and sew
eral hundred thousand more will be
needed soon by the six dispatch Off
ces which are now shipping books
to France. The books are packed at
these dispatch offices in strong cases,
so built that they serve as book
case.
They go on the decks of transports,
in cargo vessels and in naval YES
sells. Those that go on the decks of
transports are open so that the men
may have reading matter for use on
he voyage. All these books are gait
cred together again, however, replac-
ed in the cases and delivered to the
proper officials in France.
In France, the books are distrib1t
ed by an experienced Liberian, repre-
senting the American Library Asso-
citation. Most of them go to Y. NJ G..
A., Red Cross and Savation Army
huts, hospitals and canteens. Others
go directly to ckaplains and officers.

sALUTEs NECESSARY

Commenting on the bill recently
introduced by Congressman Clark, OF
Florida, providing that no enlisted
men, either private or non-com, be
required to salute any officer below
the grade OF brigadier general not
connected with his own organization
the Army and Navy Journal has the
following to say:
Nothing could be more destruc-
tive to the discipline and efficiency of
our armies. If it became a law such
q proposal would open the door for
lack OF that respect to superiors in
command that is the very foundation
OF all military discipline. If enlisted
men are relieved from the necessity
of showing proper respect to officers
of a regiment other than their own,
they would not respect their own Off
GERS and would soon become inatten-
tive and slouchy 1t Is often almost
impossible for a man to know
whether an officer is of his own regi-
ment and therefore entitled to a
salute under Mr.. Clark's plan. End
less confusion ana disrespect to SUI
periors would naturally follow. Such
bill shows lack Of knowledge of the
foundation OF military discipline and
gives evidence of the socialistic spirit
that animates the Soldiers and
Workmen's Committees which have
destroyed TIE discipline of the Rus
sian army. 1t is to be hoped that
such a dangerous proposal will be
promptly killed"
