 Mir. kremers Address.
 At the conference of national com mitteemen and state democrats late yesterday afternoon, J. Bruce Kremer, vice chairman of the democratic na- tional committee, spoke as follows: Charged With Extravasenee.
 we are charged with having been extravagant in our expenditures in the conduct of the war. To meet this charge, we stand at the bar of public |opinion submitting the determination of our cause to a jury whose verdict the democratic party has ever been willing to accept.
 '1n April, 1917, when the United States entered the world war, the flames of he'll had burst forth and in mighty conflagration were consum- ing the very heart of civilization. The eyes of the world were turned to Am erica The allies retreating nightly offered a prayer that America might soon reach European shores to pre- vent brutal despotism from taking fully into its grasp the whole of Flu rope The stupendous task of send ling an army to engage in the conflict was before the American people,. At that hour the nation shook with a lfevor of patriotism. Partisan politics were forgotten and the greater spirit lof unified America was abroad in the land. It was urged that without delay an army be raised to fight un. der the standard of our country in foreign field. It was declared by many that it would be impossible in this free country to induce the peo- pie to submit, to conscription, but knowing the heart of America, the ad ministration advocated the speedy en actment of conscription act, and ter million youths were registered in less than two monthts after the declara tion of war. Te colossal task of car ling for and training great army con ifronted those upon whom rested the responsibility of administering the af fairs of our nation.

housing and caring for 10000 men. And within two months the command ing general of the army of America and his staff were on the soil of France Training camps for officers were started, and in August-less than four monthts after the declaration of war, more than 27,00O commissioned officers, fully instructed and equip ped, were furnished by the war de- partment for the leadership of men enrolled in our glorious army.
 Allies Taxed To the Utmost.
 At this time it mustt be borne in mind that France and England were taxed to the utmost with their own military undertaking. Port facilities were totally inadequate for the hand ling of the supplies of the armies then in Europe and America was called up- on to make it's own preparations up on foreign soil Tirteen thousand foresters, sons and decendants of those men who throughout the prim- eval forests of America built the first lhabitations upon our soi, were with 
 forests of France to supply timber for barracks, docks and railroad facili- ties to be used. by Americas army.
 "The task of transporting our men was studied and it shall ever be writ ten to the glory of America that an army of nearly three million men was transported across the Atlantic, and landed at docks built by America, thus seemingly by miracle accomplishing a feat which seemed impossible
 Yank Ships Put To Sea.

 "All this was accomplished amid the cheering appreciation of cur entire nation and at that time no carping critics dared raise their voices to | u0CIdTc tudJ Iut cApOuuitulC Wdo toS lavish.
 Within a year after our declara ftion of war, the sons of America were fighting side by side with the forces of our allies.
 It is not my purpose to attempt to follow Americas accomplishments up on the fields of battle, but only tC show the marvellous achievements ir an incredibly short space of time, and now is it not well to ask who directed these almost inconceivable operations and upon whom would the responsibil ityt of failure have fallen? Truly upon that same administration must fall the responsibility of victor ol vanquished.

It has provided these hos pitals for the care, service and atten- tion of those who physically suffer from a wound received in fighting humanity's battle and not only this, but ith the humane spirit that has characterized it's every act since it came into power, the administration has provided means whereby the re- turning wounded soldier may be made useful, efficient member of society Throughout the land today, those boys who fought at Chateau Thierry, at Sty \ Mihiel, at the Argonne, along the Mouse, and who shed their blood in Americas cause, find that America ia casting the mantle of protection about them and pointing to the future, show ing the fields of promise.
 Reward For Those Who Suffered.
 'TThe government of the United States, through the wisdom of demo- cratic congress has provided that those who have so suffered might be educated for trade, avocation or pro fession, at the expense of the govern men, and more-that not only shall the soldier receive his tuition free, but that allowance shall be made for his support and maintenance during ithe period of his education And not only this, but that during his educa- tion his dependents shall receive sup port from the government treasury.
 Woodrow Wilson, upon our entry into the war, declared that we were lighting for humanity. We fought for humanity, but our service to humanity he declared, should not terminate with the conclusion of the war.

 Disease Death Rate Low.
 Not only was it necessary to train, arm, equip and transport our men, but realizing the sacrifices made by them to the end that their country be served it became incumbent upon those charged with the responsibility to see that every care and attention was received by them. Health con- ditions were a factor to be reckoned with as much as the deadly shell of the enemy and it is interesting to compare the accomplishment of the present administration with the ad. ministration of 1898. The disease death rate per thousand during the war with Spain was 26. In the war just ended, the disease death rate was GA in the United States and AZ in the American expeditionary forces and in this connection we must recall that the ravages of an influenza epi demic were sweeping not only ouI country, but the countries abroad as we'll For the first time in history the deaths from disease in an army were less than the deaths in battle. Tn lthe Japanese-Russian war the Japanese army established a record in cut ting down the deaths from disease but it remained for America to completely reverse, for the first time, the disease and bullet fatalities. Every care and every attention was afforded the sail ors and soldiers of America and 30, 900 officers of the medical corps, the best men in their profession, were assembled for the purpose.
 Expenditures Made Wisely.
 'To the charge of expending mon ey, the democratic party pleads guilty but it asks the people of the land to determine, in the light of accomplish ment, whether or not these expend lures were wisely made. The oppo sition said we could not conduct war i've ask them to meet us upon the plane of comparison.

Wha 1 is there to compare with the paper sole shoes of that war, and last. bu not least, let us compare the attitude iof the republican administration O 1898 and of this administration toward the returning soldiers.

BOLSHEVIKI IN AMERICA.

The unrest among the .laboring
classes, and especially among the
classes that do not labor when they
can avoid it, is being manifested to
q greater degree in the United States
and leads to-the belief that bolshevism
Is spreading here. That the recent
strike at Seattle which proved COM
plete fizzle, was the opening gun OF
what was planned to be a general up
rising for the purpose of overthrow
ing the present form of government
can no longer be doubted. 1t met de-
feat by the stern attitude of Mayor
Hanson and the prompt response of
the war department in sending sol
diers to support the law. 1t met de-
feat because the scheme was advo-
Gated by small majority of those
taking part in the strike and the gen
eral sentiment was against it. 1t was
further defeated by the arrest of sew

But the unrest, the desire overthrow
the government is here and the serl-
BUSINESS of the situation must not be
overlooked
The question of what is bolshev-
ism" is being asked everywhere and
attempts are made to answer the
question. Probably the best answer
is given by William H. Taft, ex-presi
dent, who defines bolshevists as ''cru-
saders who are pushing their propa
ganda in every country seeking to
rouse the lawless, the disconnected,
the poor, the lazy and the shiftless
to a millennium of plumber and class
hatred" There, it seems to us, is the
best description we have yet read of
the bolshevists. They certainly ap-
peal to the "lazy, the shiftless, the
lawless, the poor and the discomfort
ed" These are the classes that, hav-
ing failed to make living for them
selves; having been utter failures in
small way, would undertake to rule,
manage and improve the world
What the bolshevists plan to sub
stitute for the present forms of gov
eminent is set forth in The New Eu-
rope, by French writer, who says:
For liberty the bolshevists would
substitute terror and for fraternity
and equality class hatred and the
of the proletariat." That
the "red terror" of Russia is abroad
in the United States and will become ,
a menace here unless ruled with an .
iron hand in its infancy, there can be :.
little doubt. When men are willing
to give up work at the highest wages =
they have ever received and stand
around the streets, idle, denouncing ;,
the best government on earth, it is ;,
