BALLOT AGAINST
SEPARATE PEACE
IS FERRIS PLEA
Democratic Candidate Says Vote Tor
Harding and Herald Means Vote
for Separate Peace With
World Enemy

Idabell, Okla, Oct. S.-"Let's an
swer Senator Harding's challenge to
our patriotism and faithfulness to our
ideals by saying; no separate peace
with Germany Search your hearts
and see if you mothers who knit
socks and sweaters for our boys,
whose hearts were sore while your
lad was over there fighting that the
war lord might be crushed, can sup
port man who emphatically de-
clares that he is opposed to the only
method ever devised to end needless
warfare The League OF Nations"
In the above words Scott Ferris,
Democratic candidate for the United
States Senate declared Senator
Harding's latest position on the
question of entering the League and
drew cheers and applause from large
throngs at Valiant this morning and
here this afternoon.
do those of the $4,000 Oklahoma
boys who returned to their homes
after offering their lives to their
country want separate peace with
the Boche?" Ferris asked
do the fathers who were selling
Liberty Bonds, who were bravely
bearing their burdens while their
thoughts were with the boy over
there, do they favor a separate peace
with the enemy? | cannot believe
they do.
Senator Harding has declared for
'scrapping the League. Senator
Harding and my opponent, Mr.. Har-
reid, voted for a separate peace with
Germany. A vote for Senator Hard
ing and my opponent is a vote for
separate peace with a government
which regards treaties as scraps of
paper. 1t is a vote for universal
compulsory military service, for
which Mr.. Harding voted 1t is a
vote for the expenditures of millions
for large army and navy and even
tually billions for war.
Under the Versailles treaty we
were to be repaid for the ships and
cargoes which Germany destroyed in
her ruthless submarine campaign. A
vote for Mr.. Harding and my oppo-
nent is a vote to cancel that debt.
For under their plan of separate
peace we could not collect it except
by waging war.
From now on let the battle cry be
no separate peace with Germany "
