MOORE HINTS AT MILLIONS
COLLECTED BUT UNREPORTED

Chicago, Sept. 4-Chsrges that either
the statement of the Republican National
Committee laid before the Senatorial
investigating committee were glaringly
erroneous or millions of dollars collected
for the campaign had not been reported
to the treasurer, were made today by
Edmund II. Moore.
Mr.. Moore came to Chicago as personal
representative of Governor Cox before
the committee, which will reconvene next
Tuesday to continue its investigation OF
the charge bv the Democratic candidate
that a $4,000. 900 slush fund WAS being
raised by the Republicans to buy the
Presidency"
Il don't believe the Republicans will
be able to raise their fund, now that the
people know of it," said MIR Moore
Their records show that only little
more than 81 .OO0, 900 has been collected
| believe that the only way to get TO the
bottom of the matter is to call the men
who actually collected the money. Evi-
IDENTIFY the reports submitted are not cor
rect or lot of money collected has not
been reported.
For the first time Mr.. Moore gave the
name of the Atlanta business man who
raised S25, 900 in that city.
&C W Mcclure of Atlanta can tel
the investigating committee that he
raised the whole $4,000 quota for At.
lanta before the convention, Mr.. Moore
declared although Mr.. Upham SAYS only
! s.. 900 was raised in the entire State.

Cox shouted, mo one would charge Mr.
Roosevelt with desire to surrender the
sovereignty of the United States or break
the heart Of American nationality. ! am
sure that if Roosevelt could speak from
beyond the stars, having in mind the
great sacrifice that he made OF one OF ms
sons in the war, he would repeat the
message of 1914.
The speaker seized on the prcsenta-
ton of huge bouquet Of roses to plunge
into League of Nations speech. He put
it on the ground that there were Michigan
bows who had gone overseas to END
war. and that's the reason lscame here.
The applause was immediate. Repeating
what he had previously said about il
being necessary for the United States to
have voice in determining the German
indemnity in order that the world might
get to work, he turned TO the Senatorial
oligarchy, which he said "is made up IN
part of a man from your State, Senator
Newberry, who illegally and wronGuliy
purchased his seat.

Lodge. Who was it that swept Michigan
in the Republican primaries? johnson
wasn't it? How much chance did he have
in the convention? inveigh against thest
leaders because they have not only stoler
the idealism of the party, but deserted ths
principles of Lincoln and Mckinley.
Mckinley, the speaker said, had laid
down the principle that the day OF isola
ton was past.
Taking up Senator Harding's new
proposal for using The Hague Tnbuna
rs the base of new agreement and IN
cooperating the best things of the League
OF Nations, the Democratic candidate
said that under The Hague Tribunal hac
been fought the greatest war IN history
You might as we'll tie the wheels o.
an old farm wagon to q Ford automobile
as to adjust the agencies and the instru
mentalities of the League Of Nations Il
the Hague agreement was a statement
which brought smiles to the faces of th'
audience as it applauded.
Again he repeated his charges OF an
attempt to buy the election, and give a.
surances that he would keep on repcatins
it until Election Day.

WHAT HAS BEEN DONE AL
READY IN CLUB WORK IN
THIS COUNTY

Due to the enthusiasm and splendid
work of few local. people, there are
five live clubs at present in this coun-
ty. One of the clubs is on the Lake
road in Newport, two in Brownington
village, one in Evansville, and one in
Brownington Center. Poultry, gar
den, sewing, canning, cooking, and
the various members of these clubs.
This past year, Philomene Beaure-
gard, member of the Bloomington
village club, took the state first prize
in cooking and thereby becomes the
State Cooking Club Champion. She
also won third prize in sewing, while
Dorothy Dutton took the state second
prize in cooking and Gertrude Gray
of Bloomington Center received a
special prize in sewing. This work
was made possible in these various
communities because of the interest
shown by the local people and the
sion service also furnished specialists
to assist these local club leaders ia
making up programs for these clubs.
| With such a beginning already
made in club work without a county
leader, how much could be accom-
plished with a leader? 1t is work
which every boy or girl between the
ages of eight and 10 years can get
into in this county whether they be-
long to club or not. AS rapidly as
possible clubs win be formed in the
various towns and communities but
boys and girls may work on these pro-
jects whether or not there is a club
in their community. There is moth
ing that has been devised In late
years which so develops and fits boys
and girls to be real men and women
as club work. Going hand In hand
with our public school work it pre-
pares them for their life work by
teaching them the best principles In
agriculture, in home making, and in
industry. 1t teaches them conserva-
ton and thrift, they become acquaint-
ed with the problems that confront
the community and the county, and
learn thereby how to become better
and more efficient citizens.
The possibilities of this work are
unlimited. The Farm Bureau never
tackled a bigger or more vital prob
lem and given the funds to do with.
this organization is bound to show
tremendous results. It is easy to sec
from the foregoing just how County
Wide club work will affect Orleans
county. Instead of one club leader
we could use three or four In this
this campaign and "do their bit'' to-
ward raising enough funds to insure
having one full-time club leader for
this year. To get live wideawake
club leader, funds enough to cover .
good salary will be necessary besides
expenses for Office, travel, postage,
supplies, and the many incidental exc
Ipenses that arise. Limited funds win
only mean limited accomplishments in
lclub work at the end of the year.

Young Mother Held for Manslaughter

Miss t-lice Stone, a young woman
of 19, was arrested in Barton March
18th on the charge of killing her
infant child. The baby was born at
w. Is. Proctor's house, where the girl
roomed, Mar. ID. Its body which had
been thrown down an embankment
was discovered by Proctor's little boy
and playmate. Miss Stone claims
the child was dead when born. She
was arrested at the Peerless factory
where she was employed.
1t is understood that the findings
at the state laboratory indicate that
the child died of exposure.
