GOVERNMENT CONTROL

A poll made by the Railroad Ex-
ecutives discloses the fact that
great percentage of the American
people are against Government own
ership of railroads, but that most of
those opposed to ownership are fav-
cradle to Government control.
Just to a common individual this
looks peculiar. We have had more
than year of Government control
and every day the papers have crit
icized the management of the roads.
Just why, after Government con-
troll has proven such dismal failure
as we are told it has been, should
the people desire continuance.
There are lot of folks who seem to
think that the Government has
owned the roads since the wartime
measure of control was adopted, but
this is not the case. The Government
has merely taken control of the prop
SlIS pl dSISdlly IhS SAINT ilCh
who have always run the roads have
been in charge, subject, of course, to
the direction of the Government.
The railroad executives would
have people believe that the Govern
ment has owned the roads all this
time and failed to give satisfaction,
but anyone who has lick of sense
knows this is not true Why then
such cry for Government control?
If the Government is going to
have anything at all to do with the
railroads we believe the Government
should own them just the same as
the postofiices. If not ownership
nothing.
To our notion control is more or
less of joke.
The Liberal democrat. [volume] (Liberal, Kan.) 1911-1924, 1919-06-05

They had to fight and now they
must come home to pay the bill.
Does it seem just fair?
The Government paid good price
for everything it bought-ammuni-
ton, guns, supplies-everything but
men. They went for a pittance, and
now ask them to come home and help
us pay the debt contracted for their
maintainence.
The issuance of a $50 bond for
every months service would not be
any great thing to them-but the
most Of them could use the bonds to
good advantage, and in the end it
would not really be giving them any
thing, except perhaps immunity from
having to pay their own board while
in the service.
We had not thought of it before,
but on the face of it the proposition
looks reasonable, and we're for it.
The Liberal democrat. [volume] (Liberal, Kan.) 1911-1924, 1919-06-05
is 1T UNREASONABLE.

The Democrat was handed a copy
of "Play Fair" paper published in
the interest of the returned soldiers,
and the first thing to attract our at
tention was a proposition to present
bill to congress authorizing the
Government to give each soldier a
$50 Liberty Bond for every month he
served in the service.
Why not?
Those boys who left jobs paying
from $75 to $3.50 to take their place
in the ranks at $50 month will have
to help pay the interest and principal
of all the bonds issued. They gave
their time willingly for a niggardly
sum, but they did it without kicking.
Now they are back in civil life it de-
wolves upon them to repay the loans
made to the Government to prosecute
the war.
Just where do they come in any
way?
They left good paying positions to
work for nothing, almost, and now
that they are back and again civil
ans they are in the same class as
others when it comes to settling the
nations debts.

BOQUETS TO THE LIVING;
WE ECHO THE SENTIMENT

A few days ago in our mail we
found the following:
Everywhere and on all sides you
can hear the praise of the c. H.
Leete laundry, this week. Mr.. and
Mrs. Leete are fine conscientious
people and we believe their new
equipment and untiring efforts to
give patrons their moneys worth is
the secret of their success in attain
ing what all the steam laundries dc
in the older towns and cities. Here's
to them"
The Democrat is glad to print the
letter. We have all along known the
same as the writer, but it never &C.
Cured to us to say it. Perhaps
editors are more forgetful than they
should be sometimes.
One of these days we are going to
go over and take a look at the Laun-
dry and write piece about it and we
are of the opinion that it will sur
prise a lot of Liberal people.

GEE. But It's DARK

With the removal of the poles
from Kansas avenue there is no way
in which the street lights can be
used so the street is in darkness.
With the crossings taken out, and the
brick piled on the sidewalks, getting
around after dark is hard matter.
Some of the merchants are letting
the lights in their show windows burn
all night and it is great help. 1t is
a trifie expensive but we believe
their patrons will appreciate it. :
The petition for the White Way
has been accepted and one of these
days Liberal will be among the best
lighted towns in the country and we
will enjoy it after the darkness we
are now experiencing.

Reed-have blocked the Suffrage
amendment" 1t seems strange to us
that two men can run congress to
suit themselves, and especially such
men as Borah and Reed. These old
corporate controlled politicians seem
to have more voice in the affairs of
this country than all the balance of
the voters, but their stand on the
League of Nations and the Suffrage
amendment is going to make them
mighty unpopular or we miss our
guess.

The Liberal Democrat. What
more could you ask in a name 1t
is surely in keeping with the grow
ing sentiment of the times, speaking
literally as well as specifically. The
name is not in harmony with the
word partisan. Please hold this in
thought when thinking Of our paper.
Liberal is not partisan-neither is
our paper.
To be partisan nowadays one must
be prejudiced-narrow in fact. The
partisan dope peddled about is for
the gullible, and produced by those
whose only hope of advancement de-
ponds on the innocence of the con-
sumner. The less the consumers
think, the greater the majority of
the scheming politician and the profit
of the profteer.
But don't think that all the peo-
pie who peddle this partisan stuff
produce it, or even know why they
use it. Only few days ago, while
in the Office Of one of leading Re-
publican daily papers of the state,
the editor handed us several large
envelopes padded with anti-League
Of Nations dope. Of course the en-
velope bore the imprint of a nation
al Republican organization. The Re-
publican editor remarked that it was
certainly a short-sighted publisher
who would use it-that if anything
would impel him to bolt his party it
was the way this committee pre-
sumed upon the intelligence of the
publishers in asking them to print
this stuff. And still there are a lot
of publishers who fall for it.
No doubt there are some organiza-
tons presuming upon the name Of
Democracy that are issuing similar
dope, but they have not'put our name
on their mailing list, and that is very
satisfactory to us.

lenient with our subscribers and hope
lot of them will appreciate it and
come in and settle without our hav-
ing to mail out statements. That
takes a lot of time and money. If
your time has eXpired-you can tell
by looking at the address on your
paper-drop in and leave the money
for another year. 1t will help.

nounced by the Aero Club of Amer
aca.

on q tour of the world to arrange
routes and landing places. to obtain
referees and to organize committees
in every country through which the
race will pass.
The contestants will enter as in
dividuals, instead of entering their
aircraft and will be permitted to use
az many ships" as they find neces-
sary to complete the tour.
Dirigibles may be used by the COM
petitors for part or all of the trip.
Entrants will be allowed to decide
. whether to cross the Atlantic by way
of Newfoundland or by way OF
Greenland and Iceland. 1t will also
be for them to decide whether to
cross the Pacific from Toxic to Alas
ka and from Alaska to Vancouver
Seattle and San Francisco or wheth-
er to fly from Toxic to Kamchatka,
across Behri1g Strait to Alaska.
The time of the start will be de-
, c:ded after considering the most fav-
orable seasons for each part OF the
world so as to strike an average for
each country.

Song Writer Dies Of
Torture Inflicted by Robbers

Chicago, Sept. 25.-That W. H.
Purcell, who was found dead in his
apartment on the North Side, last
Monday, died from heart disease
while he was being tortured in an
effort to make him disclose the hid
ing place of a fortune in securities
and cash, was the new theory on
which the police started work yes
terdy in their effort to clear up the
death of the wealthy song writer
and real estate man.
The new and startling explanation
of the crime was advanced follow
ing the discovery that $25,000 in
Liberty Bonds which Purcell had
secreted in his apartment were
missing. The police believe thieves
learned the hiding place of the
bonds from their victim and were
trying to force further information
from him when he died of heart
disease.
