Wilson Versus Bryan.
The administration was fighting
for approval of the platform. The
opposition was mott united. Bryan
was demanding five distinct amend
ments. The friends of Ireland. led
by the talented Senator David ].
Walsh. from Massachusetts,, were
demanding something more than an
expression of sympathy for Irish ma
tionality, and a fight was being
made for more liberal bounties for
veterans of the world war.
Bryan Challenge Met.
The Democratic convention was
debating it's declaration of principles
with all the appearance of having
genuine faith in platforms as real
campaign factors. There was sin
cere division of thought and un-
doubted determination to have the
views of a majority prevail.
After Bryan had made a dramatic
appeal to the convention on dry and
league issues the legions of Wilson
brought forth their champion. He
was not product of an unrecon-
structed South, not the child of the
new democracy typified by Wilson;
not one of the "old gang" type. He

HOT AND COLD
ON LEAGUE, SAYS BAKER
Secretary Calls Question Greatest
Moral Issue Ever Faced
by America.

Senator Harding is blowing hot and
cold on the league of nations issue.
and is like the worldly-wise men in
"Pilgrim's Progress" Secretary Baker
charged at a rally in the Alexandria
Opera House last night. He assured
a large gathering that the future
peace of the world depends upon the
establishment of the league.
Secretary Baker said that he was
as earnest about the league issue as
though he were on his knees before
his Maker, and SO it was with diff
Guilty that he restrained himself from
speaking bitterly, as he felt, toward
those who were on the wrong side OF
what he believes to be the greatest
lean people.
He pointed out that Senators
Borah and Johnson have stated that
Senator Harding has scrapped the
league, while former Attorney Gen
eral Wick ersham, just back from Eu-
league. came out of conference with
Harding, saying that Everything is
all right"
Secretary Baker claimed that the
league will do away with surprise
warfare and furnish an agency for
settling and publishing international
controversies. He emphasized that
the United States is the only nation
represented in the peace conference
that has not accepted the league.
Representative r. Walton Moore re-
viewed all that has been done for
Alexandra while the democrats have
been in power, including the estab-
lishment of big shipyard in that
city. Former Representative c. c.
Carlin presided.

LEAGUE IDEA BORROWED.
Senator Walsh Says Very "Lan-
guage of Covenant Was Taken"

CHICAGO. September 25.-Follow-
ing up his recent attack on Senator
Hardings contention that the cove
nant of the league of nations is in
conflict with the Constitution of the
United States, Senator Thomas Walsh
of Montana, yesterday attacked the
republican claim that the world court
proposed by Senator Harding would
take the place of the league.
Senator Walsh said the world court
is provided for by the covenant and
that the commission of which Elihu
Root was member, and which
formulated plan for the court Dor
rowed not only the ideas. but the
very language of the covenant"
Senator Walsh said: That the op-
position which has been so indus
triously fomented against the league
of nations is almost entirely partisan
in character has had further confir-
nation in the comment made by the
republican press and the Wilson
baiters on the world court plan de-
vised by the commission of which
Senator Root was member"

ATLANTA. Ga, September 25.-"The

be the result of a plot and fastened
upon some red conspirator," said Eu-

Mr.. Debs also discussed exploitation. "
which he said the democratic and re-

In that part of his statement referring
to the Wall street explosion the socialist

federal penitentiary here, said:

WHITEr0N IRISH VOTE.
Charges Harding Is Trying to Play
Into Their Favor.

NEW YORK, September 25.-The
statement of Senator Harding on the
Irish question at Marion that I'VE
voted an expression of that sympathy
in the Senate at the time the peace
delegates were comforting in Paris"
was characterized by George White,
chairman of the democratic national
committee as an attempt ito catch the
Irish vote.
This is a disingenous statement and
is intended to catch the Irish vote"
Mr.. Whites statement said. The
facts are, as disclosed on page 1873 of
the Congressional Record of 1919, that

SUNDAY NIGHT WITH EDITORS
AND AUTHORS AT QUINN
CHAPEL

DR.. Stewart, pastor of Quinn
Chapel has given his Sunday even
ing service hour August 18th to the
Editors and Authors of the City.
Mr.. VIM. C. Linton, Editor of the
CHICAGO WHIP as chairman of
the Program on that occasion has
arranged a program well worth con-
sideration and attention.
The leading papers and publishers
and authors in the city will be rep
resented and have few words to
say concerning the progress of the
Negro Press and the prospects and
effectiveness of that particular ac-
tivity. In the rapid, crucial times
through which we are now passing,
the press and publishers are the mold
ers of the sentiment and the solvers
of many intricate problems that
come before the masses and classes,
The duty of the press to the pub
lie and the consideration of the
press by the people is something
with which we should be more ia
milar. The Press is generally con-
sidered as a great lucrative field,
while in reality it is the school of
Humanity, and slave of Progress.
An especially interesting and in
structive program will greet you at
Quinn Chapel Sunday evening and
every one is urged to come out.
