WASHINGTON May S.-Senator
Moses, New Hampshire, today replied
ito statement contained in letter
from Charles X. Weston, publicity
agent of the DUPONT company, that
Senator Moses, by opposing the dye
stuff bill, was opposing preparedness.
Weston's>, letter was read in the
senate yesterday by Kenyon, Iowa,
who characterized it as threat
against Moses and General Leonard
Wood, whose presidential campaign
Moses is helping to manage.
In the letter, Weston said he would
find it difficult to support Wood if
Moses insisted" on an amendment to
the dive bill he had introduced.
A statement issued at Moses office
today said
Senator Moses earnestly desires
the fullest protection to the dye in
dustry, but wishes it to cover textile
and associated interests, as well. He
has offered an amendment
to the present bill which eliminates
the embargo system and provides for
an automatic tariff which shall be
the difference between the price OF
the foreign article and the price of
a similar article made dcmestically
plus twenty percent.
Moses considers this explanation of
the measure refutation Of the
charge in the DUPONT letter.

In Memory.

Gustave Adolph Kaufman was
born January Z, 1898, in Iron County,
Mo. When he was ten years old his
father and mother moved to Union
County, Arkansas. They lived there
three years and then came back to
the old home place.
Adolph lived in Iron County till he
was twenty two years old. When he
was fourteen he had to go to work.
There was large family and it took
all that they could make to keep the
family going. He worked for the
farmers around home, and in 1912 he
worked for Mr.. g. L. Harris on Crane
Pond.
On September 20, 1915, he went to
work in the mines at Joplin, Mo. but
did not like the work, and with
friend joined the Regular Army, on
November 8, 1915, at Jefferson
Barracks. On the 18th OF November
he was transferred to Panama, arriv-
ing there just before Christmas.
All during the war he was one of
the guards at the Canal. On August
II, 1918, he was made Sergeant, and
was Stable Sergeant all the rest of
the time while in service. He was
discharged July IS, 1919, at Camp
Pike, Arkansas, and was on reserve
to be called any time needed.
He arrived at his home in Bollinger
County, Mo-, July.19, 1919, and spent
FIVE weeks at home and visiting
friends. Then went to St. Louis to
work. He worked in gas factory,
for six weeks; could not stand the
work on account of his heart. He
then went to Alton, ILL.,, to work in
the glass factory, where he worked
till he took i'll January II, and died
January "a, 1920, 6:15 A. M. He did
not make public confession of faith
in Christ, but before he died he said
| uC Woo AOGdJ w nCOb JCoubs DlAGC
he came home his thoughts were all
for others; he wanted to have q
home for his mother and little sisters.
He did not make plans for very far
ahead for he seemed to know, and
tried to prepare his family for his
leaving again. While it was hard to
have him go, he leaves a sweet un-
selfish life, and beautiful hope of
meeting him in heaven, which is a
comfort for his family and many
| friends. ssWe should not live to die,
but we should live to live again.
Death is not the end Of life but the
beginning Of a brighter life.' "Jesus
said there shall be no dark Gethsemane
for us.'' Jesus paid the price that
there should be no more death, OF
sorrow. We can not wish him back
again and shall try to live SO as to

just what was in Editor Cashion's
brain when he penned the lines it is
rather difficult to determine. The
American Newspaper Annual de-
scribes the Messrs. Cashion's paper
as Republican. Perhaps the n tor
wanted to write something po-at ,al,
and he may have reasoned tn by
attacking former Secretary oai the
Treasury McAdoo he was sue, ed
ing. But is it politics to a. ack
the stability of the securities issued
by the United States Government?
1t may be "politics" but if it is it is
bad politics.
Mr.. McAdoo certainly did make
the statement-that Liberty Bonds
were good investment. Mr.. Glass,
who succeeded him, also made the
same statement. Secretary Houston,
who succeeded Glass, will also make
the statement. And the Secretary of
the Treasury who will succeed Sec
retary Houston, be he Republican or
Democrat, will repeat the same state
ment. So really there is nfGhing
political or even partisan i7, Mr..
McAdoo's statement. He i IMPLY
uttered fact.
The United States Gov Sment
promised to pay certain rat }d in
terest on the Liberty Bonds. AS
rapidly as the interest days have
come around the interest has been
paid. Not financier in all America
doubts but that when the Liberty
Bonds mature they will be paid in
full. They are selling q little "off"
on the market today. But the fault
is not with the securities. 1t is be-
cause men who bought more than
they could afford to carry are forced
to sell. Or it is because some man is
selling the best investment on earth
to spend the proceeds for luxury.
Editor Cashion would do we'll to
consult some of his friends before he
pens any more editorial utterances in
line with the above. No friend, if he
is wise, would advise an attack on
the securities of the Government
under which he lives, if he were loyal
to that country.
