The April oath issue of The So

ish socialist labor party, published
at Glasgow, Scotland, contains the
following resolution adopted by a
congress Of discharged sailors and
soldiers:"
Sailors and Soldiers in congress as
sembled at Glasgow on April IL,
1919, hereby enters it's protest
against the organized attempt by the
scullions of the INSCRIPTIONS vested
interests i'll and out of parliament to
stablish in Britain that very system
of militarism, bureaucracy and alb
solutism which, in entering the war,
we sought to crush. 1t would seem
that instead of killing Prussianism
in Europe, and making the world
safe for democracy" we have sacri-
feed ourselves to uproot the evil sys-
TEN in the central empires and plant
ii in our own country.
Solemn pledges made by respon-
sible government officials and given
wide publicity in the press have, one
after another, been treated as mere
scraps of paper, in the true Prus-
sian fashion. AS an example OF this,
we point out that:
The army council promised in
1914 that: Amy man enlisting un-
der present conditions will be dis
charged (note discharged" not
demobilized) with all possible speed
the minute the war is over, whether
this lasts three weeks or three years.
Should the war last over three years,
their continuance of service will be
optional
We find that an attempt is being
made by the British Huns to start
another war, this time against the
people of Russia. making use of con-
Scription to get the men they could
not get voluntarily. We find that
The lives of many British soldiers
have already been lost in the fight
ing in Russia, against whom we have
never declared war; and we wish Ii

British authorities--not the Russian

one of these men.
We find that the promoters of the
old German system IL ,nis country.
in order TO further their vile scheme,
propose to pervert our children IN
our public schools by making mlh-
tarist instruction compulsory, under
the guise of physical training.
Therefore, be it resolved that we,

ors and Soldiers in congress assem-

No general budget, of course. can
be so framed as to fit the needs of
every family Families differ even
and situation. But no family can
thrive and progress without sound
sane and reasonable financing, with
out arrangement of a reasonable fl
nancial margin, without regular saw
ings and investments such as are
offered by thrift and war savings
stamps. And only intelligent adher-
ance to an Intelligent budget can be
trusted, under ordinary circum
stances, to bring the desired pro-
gram about.
Methods Of budget appropriation
differ i'll different cases; one method
may prove feasible in a given family
that would be worse than useless in
another. But certain cardinal prin-
ciples may be safely laid down.
Funds for the various budget di-
visions may be set apart definitely

tingent upon the balance lett from
another. Amounts may be fixed as

form CT percentage on income or

others, such as the household allow

Populariziing
theConstitution

The members of the National Sc
curity league announce a campaign
to ''popularize the constitution"
They little know how popular the
constitution has become since it was
suspended for the duration of the
war and after. American citizens
were conscripted for service on for
eign soil in violation Of the constitu-
ton: the powers of congress were
taken over by Woodrow Wilson and
by committees of big business in vio
lation of the constitutions; American
officers have accepted titles of no
bility from the British king III vio-
lation of the constitution; anti war
agitators were denied the writ of
habeas corpus in violation of the con-
stitutiOn; conscientious objector.-
We're tortured in prison in violation
of the constitution; the l. w. w.
were deprived of the rights of de-
fendant through a conspiracy be-
tween the postoffice and the depart
ment of justice in violation OF the
constitution; agitators of bolsheVism
are being deported TO Europe in vio-
lation of the constitution; Eugene
Debs and hundreds of other social
idealistsF are in Jail in violation of the
constitutions; Woodrow Wilson is
Waging his private and personal war
against Russia in violation of the
constitution; Mollie Stmer and her
associates have been condemned to
spend 20 years in prison for ques-
tioning the divine right of Woodrow
Wilson to ship American citizens half
way round the earth to be murdered
in this war in violation of the consti-
tuition. The constitution is popular.
1t is more popular than it deserves to
| be. The National Security league has
| the rougher task of populariZing the
dictatorship of a ruling class Of less
| than 16 per cent of the people, who
after perverting to their purposes all
the other forms and safeguards OIL
political democracy have at last laid
violent hands on the constitution it
self.-MaX Eastman, in the Liber-

The Victory loan finished the job
of war financing on a large scale;
war savings stamps are always on
the job promoting good business for
business by teaching wise buying,
intelligent saving, avoidance of
waste and safe investment.
With the final Liberty bond issue
subscribed county chairmen and
other war savings workers no longer
will find any seeming competition
with their task of making thrift ii
happy habit and selling war savings
stamps.
Under present financial conditions
it is impossible to borrow money
abroad to develop American re
sources. Reliance for working capi-
tai must be placed more and more
on the individual savings of the
American people They must be en-
couraged to save instead of waste,
and invest instead OF hoard, SO that

This is only a partial list of the
hundreds of aliens held, whose num-

The really serious aspect of depor-

these aliens are political refugees

American citizenship does not pro.
tect the foreign-born worker. Amy
judge can decide that he took out his
citizenship papers under false pre-
lenses (this has already been done
in two cases), and he can be deport-

count. But III order to take out first
papers, the alien must renounce cit

Buildings at Fair Grounds Sold

Pursuant to an announcement
which has appeared in The Advert
ser, the buildings and improvements
on the fair grounds were sold Mon
day at public outcry, Sheriff W. R.
Swearingen acting as auctioneer and
he did it as we'll as a veteran in the
business. Each building was sold,
separately, the aggregate saleg
amounting to $1,245.75, which will
leave small balance in the treasury
after the indebtedness of the Fair
Association has been paid. The first
large building as you approach the
fair grounds was purchased by Mr..
A. L. Kemp for a little less than
$4O0, and the second building, in
which Mr.. B. L. Minis stored his fer
tilizers last season was purchased by
him for $410. AS a whole the prop
erty sold well.

Cotton Seed Selling Too Low.

We do not understand why cotton
seed are selling below dollar a
bushel. 1t appears to US that farmers
are not getting "square DEAL" to
use pet phrase of Col. Roosevelt:
If the number of bales of cotton are
short, certainly the number of BUSH
els or tons of seed will be short in
the same proportion. And yet cotton
seed are selling for about one-third
less than they should. If farmers
were organized, as they are trying
to do, this situation, we believe,
could be improved. Cotton seed are
selling for as much at Edgefield as
anywhere else, but they are too low
everywhere.

A Remarkable Record.

Mr.. T. C. Mathis of the Collier Sec
ton commenced farming on his own
account when he was 26 years of age
and now he is 66 years. He has farm
ed continuously during that time and
has owned only two horses, which
shows what good treatment will do
for stock. 1t pays in dollars and cents
to take care of livestock. Mr.. Mathis
kept the first horse he bought "a
years and then traded it for another
and this faithful animal died last
k, after having been owned by
Mr.. Mathis 16 years. Not many per-
sons who have farmed for forty
years have such "a record for the
