POSTMASTER BURLEsoN.

Postmaster Burleson has forbid
den the use Of the mails to the pub
LEGATION issued by the Postal Tele-
graph Company on account of critl-
cisms of government operation of
the telegraph lines and of MS adj
ministration of the same. He has
also issued an order muzzling the
employees of this company and
threatening dismissal of those who
criticise government control and
operation of the wire lines.
Before the war this was a demo-
cratic form of government The
right of free speech and free press
were guaranteed inviolate by the
Constitution. But with wars stern
necessity these rights were freely
and generously waived by a patriot
ic press and people to win the war.
Under the SYSTEM bureaucracy has
grown up, repugnant to American
institutions and repulsive to the
American people. Burleson is a
conspicuous exemplar of the new or
der of things and his course is rap
idly bringing the administration into
disrepute with the American people.
If his course is upheld we may find
the employees of all the telephone
and telegraph lines muzzled by au-
tocratic rule and then will follow
the millions of men under the rail-
road administration, absolutely de-
stroying free speech in America
Peace is close at hand. The peace
treaty may be signed before another
month. There is no longer need
for the drastic measures of war. The
time has come for all of the rights
and liberties of our form of govern
ment to be restored to the people
Burleson's course in managing the
wire lines is destroying those things
upon which rest the security of our
republic. He is abusing his authori-
ty and destroying confidence in the
present administration. He ought
TO be retired.

THE VICTORY LOAN.

While our county has done rea-
sonably well in underwriting her
share of the Victory Loan, in COM
parison with some other sections, the
results achieved up to yesterday
were disappointing, considering the
fine record the county has made in
past campaigns.
II is going to require the utmost
of sacrifice and support upon the
part of all our people for the county
to realize it's quota and to that end
air sections and all people must re-
spond to the limit of their ability.
The loan yesterday was a little less
than fifty per cent taken, when the
committees had hoped to round it
out the past week.
The drive will continue until the
quota is subscribed. Our people
must do their share and to save a
ding-ding, long drawn out cam.
paign ii should be written this
week. The sooner we have finished
the Job the better it will be for us
all.

MIR. Hoover says that if the gov
eminent guarantee on wheat was re-
moved it would probably go to $3.50
a bushel. The packers have stated
that there would be no reductions in
their salary scales certainly until
after 1920. This means high bread
and meat, and there can be no re-
duction in the wage scale until the
living scale comes down. That's GER
tain. The steel trust will fix the
price of steel which will maintain
