Taylor Waldo for County Clerk

The political ice hanging over
from the 1918 campaign is at
last broken anG the 1920 fight is
on. A glance at the head Of
this column will reveal the fact
that Taylor Waldo is candidate
for Clerk Of the County Court,
his formal announcement to that
effect appearing there.
Taylor Waldo is too well known
20 practically all the voters of
Calhoun county to need much of
an introduction. Ever since he
has been big enough to hold a
pen he has been connected with
the county's affairs and he has
grown to be familiar figure
around the Court House. He
was deputy County Clerk under
Clerks Trippett and McClung for
nearly 20 years and the records
and accounts of the county are as
A, B, C's to high school grad
uate. During his service in the
office he was uniformely cour-
teous and obliging to those who
had business there and his rec
ocds We're as ably kept as any in
tue state. His friends claiming
that his remuneration was not
always great while he was q
deputy. now say it is time tc
recognize and reward his past
services.
Ihe Chronicle makes no cleo.
ton pets in primary campaigns,
but it does predict that whoever
trims Taylor Waldo will know
he has been in q campaign.

There is no wheat shortage in
this country. By the same to-
ken, there is no flour shortage.
There should DE no bread short
aye" Ard there is 10 good ex-
cuae for increasing flour prices.
80 says the United States Grain
Corporation, created, financed
and operated by the federal gov
-rnment.
Pure, straight flour, made of
the finest wheat, will be sold by
the corporation to the retail trade
for resale to consumers. The
consumer should not pay over
rs cents for a IL IA pound bag
of This variety of flour.
This, as the head of the cor
poration expresses it, puts the
solution of one phase of the cost
of living problem up to the con-
sumer by making it possible for
the purchaser of flour to decide
for himself whether he will
continue to pay fancy prices for
special brands or buy at lower
price pure straight flour made
from the finest wheat"
A heavier club against prof.
teering could not be placed in
the consumers hands.
But why not do the same thing
IL a similar way, for the identi-
cal purpose, in the case of sugar?

SENATE ADJOURNS
BEFORE FINAL VOTE
ON REVENUE BILL
PenrOse Attacks Extravaganza And
Waste In Appropriations.

Washington, Feb. 12.-Final action
on the conference report on the six
billion dollar revenue bill was de-
feated today by an early adjournment
of the Senate in observance of the
birthday anniversary of Abraham LIN
coin. The unexpected move came at
ter Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania
senior republican of the Senate con-
ferees, had precipitated a general de-
bate with three hour attack on
termed extravaagnca and waste in ap-
preparations since the war began.
While promising the revenue meas
ure his support, the Pennsylvania
Senator said it taxed the country
about to the breaking point and ash
serted that he American people were
alarmed. if not disguster" by Con-
gressional appropriations. He said
money had been poured out in a
kind Of debauchery" and he sharply
arraigned the use of appropriations for
the shipping board, railroad admins
tration and other government agen-
cies. The Russian Bolshevik. he as
serted. could have operated the rail-
roads better than they have been op-
Grated by the government.
Senators Lewis. ,of Illinois, and
Thomas, of Colorado, replied to Sena-
tor Penrose's charges and declared
that If there had been extravaganza in
appropriations the republicans were
:. subject to the same criticism as
democrats, as united support had
been given for war expenditures.
