STANDS FOR McADOO

1t becomes the duty of the democratic
party to nominate a man for president
who is thoroughly democratic; man
who recognizes that his first duty is to
all Of the people. Throughout his entire
life W. G. McAdoo has devoted his
thought and energy to service. He has
at all times held uppermost in his mind
the rights of others, and has never at
tempted to force his will against that of
the majority. In accepting public duties
he has endeavored to perform them as a
true servant, and not with the idea of
gnesping greater power. In another
column of this paper recently the ques-
tion was asked whether II Mr. McAdoo
were president the republican leaders
would not make the same effort to de-
stroy him that they have Mr.. Wilson;
would they not try to cover up and hide
from the people every good thing any
thing that they thought the people
wanted and would indorse?" Undoubt-
edly. Any man nominated and elected
who Is pledged to an administration "by
the people and for the people" would
encounter the bitter antagonism of the
leaders of the republican party, who
doubt the ability of the people to govern
themselves
We do not stand for Mr. McAdoo be-
cause of his politics. 1t is the things
for which he stands that commands our
respect Popular government must be
maintained at any cost. If Mr.. McAdoo
and Mr.. Hoover stand for the same prin-
ciples we would gladly support either
man on any ticket. We stand for Mr..
McAdoo, or a man of his type He is
sound on the fundamental principle of
free government Let us all forget par
tisanship, and render support to the form
OF government for which our forefathers
fought. We care not what a mans
former party affiliations may have been.
The supreme test must be, for what prin-
ctples does a candidate stand today

DO NOT SPIT

Too much can not be said about public
splitting. Ii is a filthy habit and a men
ace to the health Of the entire public.
This sputum lies wherever II has been

blows It about what are the conse-
quences? Many innocent people are in
fected by germs OF all kinds. from Bpu-
tum that has been, perhaps, weeks in
drying.

transmitted In this way.

land the young man who has re-
nounced his right to million dol.
lar legacy left him by his father.
James A. Garland, who was wealthy
club man and yachtsman OF Boston
today made formal statement Of
his reasons for rejecting his money.
His statement, he said. was due to
the fact that the many reports Of his
failure to accept the legacy had
failed properly to present his posi-
ton Young Garlands summary Of
his action follows:
refuse to accept the money be-
cause 1t is not mine. A system
which steryes thousands while
hundreds are stuffed, condemns
itself. A system which leaves a
sick woman helpless and offers
its service 70 a healthy man cen
demns itself II is such a system
that offers me a million dollars.
II is blind to the simplest truth
known to every child. the truth
that the hungry should be fed
aud the naked clothed have
had to choose between the loss cf
private property and the law
which Is written in every human
heart / chose the one which !
believe to be true.
Garland, who has stated that he re.
ncunced his claim to the million dol
ars because he thought Christ would
have done the same, continued;
I believe | could do no good
with the money It is the man
who gives food to the hungry who
does good net the dolla-s given
in exchange for the food.

| had the food TO give. but |

the money that is not mine even
though the good that might lie
done is possible great.
Many people have written to tell
him what could be done with the
money, he said lie continued
They seem almost proud to
point out the power that have
in my hands. but IL Is the most
pltiful thing they could point TO.
You cannot serve GCd and Nam
