Antonio Scott, world famous singer,

laurels to his brow. He has organized
a company OF musicians and bids fair
TO rise to the heights,
The debut Of the Scott Opera COM
pany in Memphis at the New Lyric
theater, for such was Monday evenings
performance, was suspicious. 1t was
very gratifying to the management and
keenly enjoyed by the large audience
which packed all the space in the
house. But for the limit in the Reats
perhaps twice as many would have
heard the premier appearance OF this
aggregation,
Scott has shown wisdo@ in choosing
his company, and rightly has not I'M
dertaken to corral two or three lumi-
naries and let their talents shine out
r~esplendantly against a background OF
mediocre ability, The asst for the
double bill OF the opening night was
excellent. He his set his standard
high and, as his record as an artist
proves, Is satisfied with nothing less
than the best. The inclusion OF a nums

SOMERSET MAN ESCAPES
IN AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT

Paonian:-
George McDermaid. manager OF the
Wasatch store at Somerset, may per-
haps be accused of starting the fash
ion OF narrow escapes. At late hour
on Wednesday Of last week as he was
driving his big Cole Eight car from
Somerset toward Paonia he met Supt.
Williams about mile and a half this
side OF the mining town. Mr.. McDer-
maid turned out to give all the road
he could. and in doing so struck a
pocket of soft earth In the side of the
road. which at that point is high en-
bankment outside the ditch which
skirts the mountalnside. and his car
turned completely over once, landing
far below. but on its wheels. When
the occupants Of the other car reached
his side, Mr.. McDermaid was still
seated at the wheel, unconscious. He
remained in that condition only about
ten minutes and is reported now to
be but little the worse for the expert
ence. His little son. who was with
him. he thrust to the floor OF the car
when he saw that. the catastrophe
was imminent, and the, lad was un-
hurt.

THE LEAGUE 4 PARTY ISSUE

Washington, June 20-The Republic
can Publicity Association, through its
President, Hon. Jonathan Bourne, Jr.,
today gave out the following state
ment from Washington Headquarters
while it is no part of the duty of
the Republican Publicity Association
to write party platforms, that coming
solely within the jurisdiction of the
National Convention, 1t is, neverthe-
less. the opinion of the Association
that the League of Nations covenant
as part of the peace treaty has al
ready been made party issue. Is
sues are sometimes drawn during the
interim between conventions and
those issues become as clear as
though dfined by platform declara-
tons. The League of Nations , cove
nant has been made party issue by
the action of the President, the Demo-
cratic members of the Senate, the
Democratic National committee, and
the Democratic press. 1t is an issue
which the Republicans could not avoid
if they would. and should not avoid
if they could. Perpetuation of Ameri
can independence is too grave and vi
tai matter to permit of compromise
or evasion.
"The Democratic Party has thrown
down the gauntlet The chairman of
its national committee, in sounding the
keynote of the presidential campaign
of 1920, characterizes the League
covenant as the greatest document of
human liberty ever prepared and the
other party leaders declare that they
welcome the opportunity to make the
league the issue in the coming fight
for control of the executive branch
Of the Government. The course that
affairs have taken at Paris, the de-
bates in the Senate, and the public ut
terances of Democrats from the lee
ture platform and in the press have
clearly indicated their intention of at

tain that love. This we do by prayer.
IF we being evil know how to give
good gifts to your children how much
more will you heavenly Father give
the Holy spirit to them that ask him."
Luke lib.
Let first things come first, when one
is born again the Holy spirit is given
TO him, then he can love God with all
his heart and his neighbor as himself.
Then will the experience set forth in
the lesson of today become his exper-
fence, and he finds this law of love
easy to keep. Having received the
power from God to love, it becomes
natural and easy to love everybody.
A failure to receive or obtain the Holy
Spirit means a failure to keep this
law of love.
Love is the basis Of all true service,
to God. Without 1t zone is a sounding
brass and a clanking cymbal."
In the world reconstruction love is
the all-important element. It binds
nations together as well as individ-
uals. 1t contains the solution of all
human ills. Love is the fulfilling Of
the law" Rom. 1910

tempting to make partisan capital out
of the league. In spite of the fact
that Mr.. Wilson declared in his New
York speech that This is not a party
issue, every discerning person has
known from the first that the league
covenant would be the biggest plank
in the Democratic platform next year.
Now we have it from the committee
that will frame that platform and con-
duct the campaign upon it.
Republicans should accept the
challenge. The Democrats may set
forth the league covenant as the the
greatest document of human liberty
ever prepared but the Republicans
will denounce it as the greatest docu-
ment of. destruction of American lib
erty ever PREPARED and with that slo-
gan will not hesitate to submit the
case to the voters From the first the
leaders of the Republican party have
carefully avoided injecting partisan
politics into the debates on the league
Emphasizing their support of I'M
adulterated Americanism, which has
been the dominant note in every prin-
cipal enunciated by that party since
its organization, they have based their
criticisms of the league on sound
logic, and have appealed to the pa
triotic intelligence of every American,
regardless of political utilization, to
rally to the defense of his country.
With the Republicans in the van of
the fight, and the defeat of the league
assured because of their majority
against It,"
