To Give the South a Chance.

Why not give the splendid Amer
leans of the South a chance to worl
with their brothers of the North il
solving these problems in an Ameri
can Way?' cries that excellent jour
raj Leslies Weekly, at the close of
an editorial entitled, The Republi-
can Opportunity"
The opening paragraph Of that edi-
torial reads like this: The Repub-
llcan party faces an unusual oppor-
tuntiy for a vital national service in
Itne present campaign. If it las the
vision and courage to see and seize
this opportunity, ii will ensure for
Itself a dominant place for years 10
come"
So. That's the chance" it would
have the Republicans give "the splen-
did Americans of the South" An OPP
portunity to help the Republican
party ensure for itself a dominant
place for years to GOMEZ"
The South needs the North. but
the North needs the South even
more continues the editorial. we
must bring the South's three centu-
rtes of undiluted Americanism into
contact with the polyglot Nort2.
The Republican party can do this.
Now is the time. Sixty years ago the
Republican party saved the Union.
Its work will not be finished until il
has reunited the North end South in
o common Americanism."
What "Americanism" are Won
speaking of Lesle's? The "South's
three centuries of undiluted "Ameri-
canism?" or that of the "polyglot
North?" Is it your idea of uplifting
section or people that the "undi-
luted" must become a saturated So
luton of the infected, weakened and
dangerous?
Why not, Leslie's, see in this cam
paign year The Democratic Oppor-
tunity," and urge the "polyglot
North" to behold and pattern after the
"South's three centuries of undiluted
Americanism ?"
The world today is praising the
Americanism of the South as repre-
scented by the Democratic party,
while it is holding it's breath in utter
establishment at TIE un-Americanism
of the North as shown by Republicans

The Hope of Lower Prices.

Even if the layman cannot follow
with complete understanding the
paths of Federal book keeping by
which an apparent deficit in treasury
operation for the past fiscal year is
converted into an adjusted surplus, "
there is a degree G. satisfaction to be-
mad in the fact mat the gross public
debt has been decreased over a billion
dollars the past year, and that while
there viii continue to be issues of
treasury certificates from time to
tlme, a continuing net decrease is ex-
pected this year.
This way will come lower prices
more surely than either by the cutting
of profits or the reduction of wages

The farmer, in his campaign to OBJ
tain reasonable price for his pro-
duct and relieve himself from the
stigma of being responsible for the
high cost of living, has organized to
protect himself. The American Farm
Bureau Fedration is designed to en-
able the agriculturist to engage in CO.
operative marketing of grain and
i've stock. Through organizations
to be maintained in every state il is
the purpose of the farmers to keep
control of their commodities until
they reach the manufacturer. If
they are successful in this plan. as
every consumer has cause to- hope
they will be, there should follow a
sharp reduction in cost of wheat and
meat products.
The plan contemplates the abolition
OF the broker and middleman, two
agencies in the distribution of food
stuffs that have become important
factors in the economic growth of the |
country, but whose chief concern
seems to be to pass the foodstuffs
along to the consumer at greatly in
creased values. If this farmers or
