THE PRESIDENT ANSWERS FALsI.
FIERS.

Arthur Brisbane, who writes for the
Hearst newspapers, was guilty OF the
following falsehood in the Herald
and Examiner Of the 3rd Of the pres
ent month
Women believe that they should
have something to say about conscript-
ing their sons and brothers for war.
Early in November they will vote
against Mr.. Cox and his war League
of Nations, that would take from Con-
gress and give to European council
the right to conscript men in this
country to settle war across the
ocean"
OF course there is not word in
the Covenant to warrant such a state
ment as the foregoing and similar
statements by. men OF the Brisbane
type.
President Wilson in a recent state
ment characterized as absolutely
false assertions that article 10 of the
league covenant would make it posi-
BILE for other nations to lead the
United States into war. There is
nothing in the covenant he said
(which in the least interferes with OF
impairs the right Of Congress to de-
clare war or not declare war accord
ing to its own independent judgment
as our constitution provides.

MIR. HARDING'S RECORD UP TO
nATE

/. Shortly after the campaign conf
menced, Mr.. Harding went Wabbiy
on the League of Nations question
2. Mr.. Root was called home from
Europe, according to the press dis
patches, to set Mr.. Harding right.
8. When Mr.. Harding began to talk
right, Senator Borah went wrong, very
wrong, and Cancelled all speaking ap-
pointments made for him by the Re-
publican National Committee.
4. To hold Borah in line, Mr. Hard
ing went to Des Moines and there
solemnly declared that he would have
nothing to do with a League OF Ma
tions except to kill it.
S. Then real trouble for Mr.. Hard
ing commenced Republican leaders
like Herbert Parsons commenced to
desert. They will have nothing to do
with a presidential candidate who can
be driven around by a sage brush
Senator from Idaho.
6. Former President Taft and many
other Republican leaders are now
striving nightly to set Mr.. Harding
right again. n

We hear the question often asked,
would we as ia member of the League
Of Nations be compelled to send our
armed forces to fight the wars OF
other nations in which we had no
vital interest. A war of no small pro-
portions has been raging for several
months between Russia and Poland
the latter a member of the League OF
Nations, which now is composed OF
nearly forty nations, all of which are
more or less concerned in checking
the westward spread of Bolsheyism.
DO we hear Of the soldiers of any ma
tion being drafted to fight in the Pol
ish army? France voluntarily sent
several hundred experienced officers
to aid the! Poles in recognizing
their shattered forces. The League
could not have compelled single
,Frenchman to go to Poland against the
will Of the French Government. AS
"a member OF the League of Nations,
America would never participate In
a foreign war unless by Act OF Con-
gress, which is the only method under
our Constitution by which this coun-
try may engage in any war.
Manchester Democrat., 1920-10-13
THE ISSUE FINALLY AND Def.
NITELY SETTLED.

In his Des Moines speech last Thurs
day Senator Harding came out square
ly and unqualifiedly against the
League of Nations, with or without
reservations. He said he wanted nc
acceptance of the League with reser-
vations to clarity American obltga-
tions
"I do not want to clarity those
obligations" he said.
ri want to turn my back on them
It is not Interpretation but rejection
that am seeking"
Senator Borah. forced this decision
by cancelling the speaking dates
assigned to him by the Republican
National Committee.
Senator Harding had to decide be-
tween the bitter enders, like Borah and
Johnson, and the Republicans favor
able to the Treaty, like Taft and Root
/ To prevent bolt and probable defeat
Mr.. Harding had to decide against the
intellectual membership Of his party
had to decide against a majority Of
his party.
Governor Cox favors the League with
such non-destructiye reservations as
the Senate may consider advisable.
1t is we'll that the dominant issue
of the campaign is now clearly de-
fined. !.
The Republican candidate is unai
.terably opposed to. the Treaty. the
Democrats are unalterably IN favor
of the Treaty.
What will be the verdict OF the
ballot box?

STATE CHAIRMAN REYNOLDS
SAYS HARDING'S DES MONIES
SPEECH WILL DEFEAT HIM.

Des Moines, Iowa, October 8, 1920.
DR.. ]. w. Reynolds, state chairman OF
the Democratic organization in Iowa,
in statement issued today declares
that the stand taken by Warren Hard
ing upon the League OF Nations In
his address delivered at Des Moines
Thursday will make. Democratic votes
by the thousands in the state and
will be fatal to Republican success
in the nation.
Eve now know exactly where Sem
ator Harding stands" says DR.. Rey-
holds. "He is with Borah and Johnson
and the irreconcilables who favor the
abandonment Of any organization OF
nations whatever.
"He represents policy which will
render the sacrifices in blood and
money made by the United States in
the world war utterly wasted. His
election means the adoption of an at
titude toward the rest of the nations
of the world which will make the
United States the Prussia OF the globe
and which will render necessary the
maintenance Of tremendous military
force.
"To the friends of Ireland who come
to him asking for promise OF breac
he gives stone. What, may l ask
can Ireland's friends hope to gair
through the election Of a candidate
who not only declares that he doe'
not favor exerting the slightest in
fluence upon Great Britain in regard
to her internal affairs directly, bu
opposes the entrance of the unitet
States into any organization which
would have the power to listen t
1reland's appeal.
"Women of Iowa and the Unitef
States will find in the utterly selfisl
attitude Of Mr. Harding an ampl
warrant to oppose him. He cast ava.
the League of Nations and any effec
tive organization to promote peace, an
places chip on the shoulder OF Uncl
Sam which cannot but lead to futur
wars.

own words the key to his downfall
in Iowa. His visit here was a grea
aid to the Democrats"

George White, chairman of the
Democratic National Committee, in a
recent statement said:
"The difference between the posi-
ton Of the two parties on the Irish
question is simple. Governor Cox has
said that, under Article XI. he will
il elected president, bring the matter
to the, attention of the league OF
nations as affecting the good under
standing among nations on which the
peace Of the world depends Such is
the language of Article xI. Senator
Harding has said that the Irish prob
lem is not "a matter for any official
action by the United States. Thus
President Cox will have the league
consider the matter; President Hard
ing will take no action, league or no

THE OLD TIME SUNDAY

My mother was born and reared in
a little country village in western
New York. On the farm where my
grandmother lived it was the custom
to begin Sunday on Saturday night at
sundown. The "hired man" came in
from the chores, grandmother put
away all her work in the kitchen, and
then the entire family gathered in
the best room and studied Sunday
school lessons, or had reading from
the Bible, led by grandfather, and all
the family retired not later than 9
o'clock.
In the morning after doing none but
the absolutely necessary chores on the
farm, the team that had not been used
the day before was hitched up to the
big four-seated wagon and the entire
family, including the "hired man."
went to church. There was preach
ing service in the forenoon, and then
we adjourned to lunch for ourselves
and the team. Then we went in to
Sunday school service, and after an
interval there was another preaching
service, after which we hitched up
and drove slowly back to the farm.
That was the way Sunday was kept
in western New York a little more
than fifty years ago. l can remember
hearing my mother say that when she
was girl in this same New York
state village she was not allowed to
walk, except to the cemetery and
back, on Sunday, and was not allowed
to read any books except the Bible
and "Fox's Book of Martyrs"

AN OPPORTUNITY
FOR COLLEGE MEN
Secretary Meredith Urges Summer
Farm Work to Speed Up Pro-
duction.

Clemson College, May 27.-Dr. w.
NJ. Riggs, president of Clemson Col
lege, has received letter from Sec
retary of Agriculture E. T. Meredith,
in which he seeks the aid of college
students to help prevent curtailmept
of food production b yspending their
vacation in helping on the farms.
Secretary Meredith writes as follows:
Dear Mr.. President: Our coun-
try faces a possible curtailment of
food production due to a shortage of
farm labor-a shortage that prom
ises to increase as the summer ad-
vonces.
MAY / urge that you bring this
situation to the attention of the
young men in your student body with
the suggestion that, if possible, they
spend their summer vacations help
ing OH the farms? A considerable
number of college men already make
this practice. This year there is
special need for such help on the
farms, because of the Importance of
maintaining a normal production Of
food. l hope that not only students.
but business men generally, will lend
aid, as so many of them did, patriot
ically and effectively, in the summer
of 1918.
Reports received by the United
States department of agriculture
show that the present supply of
hired farm labor is Is per cent less
than last year and approximately 72
per cent of the normal supply
which was almost exactly the stua-
tion in 1918. The farmers and their
families are doing their utmost to
keep up production, but they cannot
secure the hired help that they for
merly have had. In consequence,
the food supply may be measurably
reduced unless assistance is given.
If within the next fortnight the bus
mess men and students of the coun-
try will declare their readiness to
aid during the coming summer, far
mers will be more likely to make nor
NAL paintings.
'Unquestionably there is sufficient
man power in the schools and cities
to relieve the farm labor situation
this summer. l believe the men will
respond when they learn conditions,
and so afford another PRACTICAL dem
onstration of the neighborly and CO.
operative spirit which characterized
the country war efforts.
MANY stud ats have relatives or
friends in the country to whom they
can offer their services. Others in
terested should write the director of
agricultural extension at their state
agricultural college, stating their
qualifications, the time when they
can go to work, etc. The director
will put them in touch with county
agents who know farmers in need of
helm"
