The great battle of 1920 will
be a fight between the radicals
and the con servatives. The radi-
Gals will follow the Wilsonian
notions about world leadership, "
intermixed withtaint of socialism,
suggestions of government own
ership of great public utilities,
and SO on. The Republicans have
nominated a conservative ticket
and their campaign will be cast
upon conservative planes. They
will think in terms of America
first. They will be fully alive to
all the world problems which the
war so greatly magnified, but
they will approach those problems
with convict that they should
not in any degree submerge that
fire edom of action which this
nation has ever demanded and
enjoyed. Lexington (Ky.) Lead

THE REPUBLICAN TICKET.

The Republican ticket is strong
one. Both candidates come from
the ranks of common, every day
folks, of whom Abraham Lincoln
said God must have thought lot
of or else he would not have made
so many of them. .s
They illustrate the reality Of
American democracy, showing
how craftsman and farmer may
rise to the highest offices within
the gift of tho nation, not because
they appeal to class interests for
elevation, but because by service
to all of the people, they have
served those of their own class
best; by putting the general well
face first they have contributed
most to the material welfare OF
every class of citizens.
Courage, knowledge and wis
dom are exempIified in these two
men and their records tell best
of their devoted patriotism. -

WOULD TAX CHURCHES.

The Bridgeport, Ala. News
says that all church property
should be taxed. In a measure
the News is correct, and in like
measure it is wrong. To tax the
little country church would be a
wrong, for a great many of these
churches are non-supporting, and
if a tax were levied on them as
property many of them would be
sold for taxes and pulled down
by church haters. of whom we
regret to say there are some In
this country. However, If a
church enters into the purchase
Of property with view to MAX
ing money out of it, as the News
alleges. taxes should be imposed
on it, just as on the property OF
the private citizen or the public
corporation. but to tax the little
country church, this paper cares
not of what denomination, would
be altogether unjust. Most coun-
try churches have been built by
the devotedness of a community
which wished to see at least one
.pire pointing to God in their set
Element, and are served by pas
tors who will leave little behind
EXCEPT service as their life-work.

CONDEMNS vOLSTEAD LAW

The South Pittsburg Hustler.
speaking of the supporters of the
Volstead or prohibition law, says:
1T remained for paid, high
ly organised and lavishly financ-
ed body of professional reform
ers, representing a minority OF
public opinion in America, bring
ing the coercion of their pow
erful organization to bear on a
supine and vote loving congress.
to accomplish a piece of legisla,
ton so subversive of personal
rights and so impossible of en-
forcement."
And that a democratic con-
gress! 1t is terrible! "Supine"
gives the idea it was a congress
that turned its toes to the dais'
les in submission and the fact is
that it was decidedly militant.
And it seems to US that one OF
the editors of the Hustler was
chairman for Marion county in
the recent drive to raise funds
for the Anti-Saloon work.
Wherefore this change of front?
When men are arrested for
boozing under prohibition just as
quick as they were when prohi'
bition was not in force. then
great step will be taken towards
enforcement of the Volstead law.
We admit it is rather a radical
way of controlling personal llber'
ty, but the booze-user, under Ii
cense or not under license. Ii
rather radical also, and, in fact,
has not sense enough in his sys'
tenn to respect any of the rights
of society.
