HARnING,s LEAGUE STAND

There are some people who would deceive the Amer
lean into believing that the rreconcable oppo-
nens the of nations opposed to any effort
to promote peace through association of nations Such
is not their attitude by their signed state
ments.
The so-called "irreconcabes" among the RepubI-
can members of the sgners of the resolution
offered in the Senate March 1919 In that resolu
ton it was declared that 1T is the of the Senate
that while their sincere desire that the nations Of
the world should unite promote peace and general
disarmament the constitution of the league of nations
the proposed to the peace conference should
not be accepted by the United States"
The resolution urged immediate negotiation of peace
treaty and subsequent consideration of the league of
tions Republicans of the Senate wanted the treaty
considered and determined on its own merits and the
question permanent association of nations taken up
separately when could be considered without the pref
udices haste and undue influences incident to the max
ing of a treaty of peace
Senators Poindexter, Borah and Johnson, who have
been listed among the 'frreconcabes" were sgners of
this declaration of union of nations for the
promotion peace So also Senator Harding, now
the nominee the Republican party for President In
his speech acceptance Mr. Harding advocates asso-
citation of nations the promotion of peaee-showng
that he changed his attitude this question
and with any Of his colleagues who op-
posed the league presented by the President
What Mr. Harding and all other Republicans insist
upon is that nations shall neither surrender
any American sovereignty rights nor leave any room
for doubt as the obligations the nation has assumed
They propose that when the United States becomes
party to an international agreement for the promotion
of peace shall carefully considered that it will
not become as the league covenant would promoter
of
The difference between the Republican idea of an in
ternatonal and that of Wilson and Cox is that
Wilson and Cox believe in calling America to make
the supreme sacrifice while the Republicans believe in
maintaining American sovereignty at the same time that
they make agreements clear in purpose and language
that there be violation without afronting world
honor other words, the of the agreement must
be so clear as to permit discussion to the
ing and so clear that violation would be recognized
by all the world bring all the world against the ma
ton committing the wrong
Such union would be union to promote peace. The
Wilson league would be a constant breeder of war

PAUL PRY WANTS TO KNOW
MUST BE SHOWN WHY

We Democrats of Ellendale and
surrounding district, read with much
concern in the Chronicle of two
weeks ago, the communication from
Otis P. jefferson, a teacher in our
public schools, in which he advocates
the nomination of one of our highly
respected citizens, Isaac Webster
Warren, a young farmer and survey
or of this place, for membership in
the Legislature on the Democratic
ticket. For the benefit of Mr.. Warren
l must say with pleasure, that no one
will find fault with him as a citizen
and gentleman of high standing in
this community. He is honored by
I those who know him. In politics ne
is a loyal Democrat.
Mr. Jefferson is young man, proud
of his education, which we hope will
not make him appear more foolish
than necessary. He is young in poll
tics as well as in years, and he has
much to learn before he is a safe
advisor for his party, and especially
to ask that his favorite candidate for
the Legislature be endorsed right OF
hand.
We want him or his candidate to
tell the public what he stands for (
and express his views on the policies /
now at issue. How Mr.. Jefferson
stands on these questions is well I
known, and it is supposed that he will
only advocate a man entertaining the
same ideas. If this be the fact, then
Mr.. Jefferson is injuring Mr.. War
ren's chances for nomination, as well 1
as himself; for we recall an appear
ance made by Mr.. jefferson at a pub
lie meeting held at Georgetown, when
he was howled down and out by the
gathering then, by opposition to the
ideas he attempted to then express.
The day has passed when Demo-
cratic voters will adhere to party can :
didates, regardless of what the can :
didate stands for. We are Independent
and fearless, but true to our cOnvic-
tions.
We are told that Mr.. Jefferson's re-
cent letter extoling Senator Wolcott,
is in the same language as that he
used in advocating the nomination or :
Mr.. Warren. Is there no difference :
in these two gentlemen? Is Mr.. JEFF
ferson like the physician who uses
the same medicine for every disease?
Will Mr.. jefferson inform the vot- :
Sio VI thS H4ASl RSpl OoSHt"tlfC DA9 :
trict of Sussex County just how and :
where his candidate stands on the :
new school laws? How he looks up :
on woman suffrage? What his atti :
tude is towards enforcement Of the
VOlstead law? Will he vote to repeal :
the Clair law in Delaware? VIII he :
state his position upon equalization :
of taxation? When he has done this
we will be ready to consider his pos :
sibility as a candidate for the Legis- :
lature.
This is no time for deception, for :
in the language of the Great Abraham :
LincOln-'You can't fool the Ameri- :
can people all the time"
