HE NATIONAL GUARD.

Just what the country should do in the. way of reorganization of the army may not be clearly understood in con- rrcss. but from the action that has been taken it Is quite evident that there is a considerable difference of opinion. This Is shown by the attitude that is taken in regard to the liberalization of the na . iionai guard. By the action of the sen ate it was considered advisable that this step should be taken. But the tower house was SO strongly opposed that 1t was impossible for the confer snce committee to reach any agreement ln regard thereto This promises to de- lay the settlement of this important matter for an indefinite period, espec- lafly if it is not disposed of during the next two weeks
 It Is a question whether in planning for the defense of the country In the future the military establishment is made to have a certain supervision over the national guards of the different Btztes. Under a federalized national guard there would be certain degree of unlforuhity among these state organi- cations but without federal control each state could be expected to organize it's military cohpanies according to its own heas ana with the idea of having them patk rather than national guards
 rhere can be no question about the psrvics that was performed by the na-

RESTS WITH CONVENTION.

It has been perfectly evident for long time that no candidate is going if- to the republican convention at Chicago next month with sufficiently pledged delegates to secure the nomination Oh the first ballot In the bulk of the states the delegations will go anin- structed. There are those who on the first ballot will favor the name of some individual who because Of service to the state it is believed should be made the nominee or is at least deserving of rec ognition by having his name so present. ed to the national convention. It can thus be expected that there will be a much scattered vote on the first ballot.
 That the delegations go nninstructed does not mean that many of the dele gates have not formed some opinion as to which one of the names kept before the country makes the strongest appeal to them. The majority, however, is not held by any hard and fast instructions from their constituents. They have been named under the belief that they can be entrusted to exercise their juds- nent in the choice of d party nominee, that they will take into consideration the best interests of the country and the party and tha they will do this very thing.
 There are states which have not as yet chosen their delegates but the number is small and it is not likely that these will make any great change in the DO | sition of the candidates. Wood, John. son, Lowden and Harding is the orde1 | in which the candidates stand with pledged delegations. How many of tho uninstructed delegates they will receive on the first ballot is problematical bu with the large number in the field, anc even the possibility of a dark horse be
 ing selected it is evident that it is no likely to be on the first or second ballo 1 that the choice win be made. After tht | first two, however, indication of the sen i timent ought to be clearer but 1t is per fectly evident that the choice of the nominee will rest with the convention and not instructed delegations.

THE BONUS BILL.

There continues to be a considerable degree of uncertainty as to what the action will be in regard to the bonus proposition for the soldiers that is be- ing urged upon congress. All the plans for dealing with 1t that had been pre- sented were regarded as inadvissble for different reasons, in addition to the gen. -ral opposition which is raised to the 'dea- The sales tax, the stock sales tax and the insurance plan have been put aside as failing to be acceptable.
 Even before these methods were con sidered it was admitted that it would be most unwise to attempt to issue bonds Tor the purpose of getting the money that would be required for such bo- nus Quite recently Secretary Houston of ne treasury department has stated that there ought to be no thought al the prusent time looking toward the giving of such a bonus as urged. He declares that the finances of the coun- try are not in proper shape for any such ster. that the government hasn't enough fnoney to pay It's bills by billions of dol. ars. that the conditions throughout the couhtry are made the worse thereby, hat C cannot help having it's effect upor tho maintenance of the high cost of liv. Ing and that instead of indulging in sucl snwsrranted spending if any additiona taxes are going to be levied the pro. ecedE therefrom should be used for tn, ecting of the governments obligations

 When Christ founded His church, He wanted a dozen men with whom to begin the work. Where did He get them?

Did He. go to Rome and seek in that home of legislative gen jus and military prowess, disciples har- dened and trained by Severe discipline { Nol He. mostly traniped along the shin glY shores of Galilee,. and selected men with hard hands and brown sunburnt faces, but men whose hearts could be made big enough to enwarp whole world in their love and sympathy.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Daylight Savings

Mir. EdMor: Honestly don't you know that it is unjust and unfair to try to fix the blame for the rnixup in the daylight saving scheme onto those who don't want their timepieces set forward and back in. the spring and fall? You must know, for it has been thoroughly demonstrated that there are a lot of people in this country who are. satisfied that the standard time is the only prop CT and right time by which to regulate the clocks, and we have a perfect right to feel that way, and are justified in putting up good strong kick against any attempt to oblige us to do otherwise
 We have no quarrel with those who want to and can without serious fncon- venience to others begin their days work or business earlier in the morning so as to get through earlier in the after noon; we admit that they have a. per feet right to do so, but it is simple matter to do that on standard time and then everybody is satisfied. Please shift the blams for the mixup where it be- longs. UNCLE BILLIE Faelesyille. May 20. 1920

Carolina permanent chairman.
 Grant was again unanimously nofainat- ed on a single ballot amid scenes of in spring enthusiasm. The vice presidency went to Henry Wilson of Massa achGsetts, who defeated Colfax for renominatfon on a single ballot.
 Colfax had once said he would not be a candidate. This gave Wilson a long start on the trail of delegates. Then, too. Colfax was. very unpopular with the Washington correspondents of big news papers afd-perhaps the only time of it's sort in our political history-they- con spired together to prevent his re-nomi- nation. On the first roll call Wilson had 364 1-2 votes, Colfax 321 1-2. with 377 necessary to a choice. Before the an nouncement, however, 22 Virginia dele gates swung to Wilson, and six Geor- gians and West Virginians followed suit.
 The platform did more pointing with pride" than any of its predecessors; dis cussed civil service reform for the first time, pledged a protective tariff, de- manded abolition of the postal franking system hinted at woman suffrage, and bespoke industrial peace and justice be- tween capital and labor.

FIGHTING SUGAR PRICES.

Testimony which continues to be given in regard to the sugar situation, to one Investigating committee or another, sup ports the claim that has been made for months that the present price of sugar has been boosted by those who have taken advantage of the situation to buy when it could be bought at a reasonable figure and taking advantage of the high CT prices as they developed or were forced.
 As if taking a cue from the refusaltof the people to buy goods which could be gotten along without the members of the preservers association have agreed not to purchase any sugar until the present prices are cat in half. They are users of a quarter of billion pounds and their busy season Is just opening, but rather than pay the price demanded and as the result be forced to charge for their goods accordingly, they will not at tempt to handle the large amount of goods which they ordinarily can and for which they require great quantities of sugar. The effect of this will be eager ly watched.
 Apparently there is ground for the stand that has been taken in demand ing such a cut It will be most unfor- tunate if the producers of all kinds of fruits are forced to lose their market but it is apparently necessary for some determined step to be taken to drive the profiteers out of their set course. If 1 what this organization claims is true and that there should be a 50 per cent. cut l in sugar 1t would appear 10 be. time for government action of the most drastic | character
 | Significance cannot fail to be attached | to the testimony of witnesses before the New York committee when it was claim
 ed that over three and half million | tons or about three-quarters of the 1920 1 Cuban sugar crop were bought at twelve cents a pound by American and Euro. pean brokers. A legitimate profit to the
 nine handlers before the consumer gets
 it does not justify the prices that are being demanded today. Had the eddali. zation board last August been permitted
 to purchase for this country as it de.
 sired the present situation would have
 been avoided, but it wasn't and now the fight comes to prevent those wht have taken advantage of the situation
 from working the squeeze play.

HIT BREEDING PLACES.

uue Co the lateness or the season We are only getting to the time when there is srt to be much general thought given to the important question of keeping down the number of flies and rnosqui- toes We can of course tend to the swatting of both when they get so nu- merous as to be bothersome. but that is not the time when the most effective service can be performed Keeping down the number of flies and mosquitoes is not as effective as preventing the mum hcrs from developing. It is almost a hopeless task to think of carrying on a campaign of extermination through the use of the slapstclI. That it all helps is not to be questioned but there is so much more satisfactory results to be ob- tained by other means of attack that they ought not to be overlooked.
 There Is need of giving the proper amount Of attention to the mosquito areas wherever they are to be found. It is tho breeding places of both the mos quito and the fly that calls for serious attention. and while the draining of niarshy land and the elimination of stag nsnt pools are important in connection with such work when undertaken on 8 large scale it is 10 be realized that there is much that can be done by the indi- vidaaL
 It doesn't have to be a swamp, or . marsh for mosquitoes to breed. They propagate wherever there is stagnan water such as is often to be found 1T barrels or tin cans about premises. Tn, removal of such receptacles means tn, reduction in the number of mosquitoes This Is all a part of the work tha should be undertaken in connection witt the clean up movement Let the filth! and unclean places be eliminated an, there will be not only more attractiv yards and cleaner neghborhoods but there will be decided decrease in tn number of mosquitoes and flies, both o which multiply rapidly under such con ditions and during the warm weather. ] l.ttle effort by many in this direction Vill result in a marked improvement an, a much 10 be desired relief.

scholar. St. Paurs was a master mind. He was giant in intellect. Yet his su- preme passion was to win men to Christ, and thousands Were the crown of his re- joicing. By all means let us culture the mind as much as possible. God expects us to make every gift we hold as effec- tive as it can be. Not one word do we say against culture and refinement. The Lord expects every disciple of His to be lady or a gentleman, according to the sphere in which we move. There are no sanctions for. vulgarity in the Word of God-"be cautious" A polish to the shaft that often makes 1t pierce the deeper In the holy war.
 A Salvation lassie who left a cotton mill only three months ago, if filled witt the Holy Ghost, will do more real wori in building the city of God than the longest headed DID. in the land who has not got this glorious amounting. If he also has this fitness he will accomplish more than the lassie, for he has more gifts. more machinery. But if he has only the gifts and she has the holy unc l tion, then for the work of Cod we pre- i fer tie lassie to the doctor of divinity. l Certainly we want more men of the l highest possible gifts and human qual- ifications, but still more urgent is our need of more of the power of God.

tional guard units in the recent war and especially those from the states where the training was in keeping with that which would be expected under fed eralized guard. If the government is to put any reliance upon state military or ganizations in connection with national defense 1t seems only plausible that there should be the training and organ ization prescribed by the government that would make such militia most en- cient. The reorganization of the na- tional guards is underway in many states and while this is being accom- piished there ought to be determined what part is any the government is go- ing to have in it.
