his primitive world, whose social
standards were 200 years behind tho
times. Drinking, and carousing, gam
bling, cock lighting and horse racing,
young Jackson never took a dare, tho
rustic sport nee stalking his horse and
his all on a throw Of the dice. A
bully among rowdles, he went his roy,
STEERING way along a road that is not
to be laid down on the map of conduct
as a curse to the White House.
AS he rose from a chore boy and Q
saddier's apprentice TO be a lawyer
and a Judge of the Supreme court OF
Tennessee, he cast aside the dlsslpn,
lions OF his careless youth, but no
never lost the spirit Of the clansman
or subdued his ~ungoyernable temper.
A bare catalog OF his quarrels and
fights Is too long to be given here. In
most OF them he was fired with the
conviction that he was defending tho
name OF hlr wife. This had been
brought into question only by his own
characteristic imprudence, when he
fell in love with his l~andlady's daugh-
ter, while she vas yet married to am
other, and when he rashly wed her
without waiting to verify the mere rus
NOR that her offended husband had
obtained a divorce In a neighborlng
state. After two years OF welded life,
the too hasty couple learned that the
woman's first marriage had only Just
been dissolved and they had to mike
a spectacle OF themselves az they went
through another ceremony In order to
be united In lawful bonds.
Because his own lmpulsiye con-
duct had exposed his honest, devoted
wife to the slanderous tongues OF the
gossips, Jackson was all the more SEN
sltive to her sufferings. For sneerlng
at her over a bar one man was stood
up at "a PAGES and shot TO death by
the avenging husband, who kept his
pistols In perfect condition through 81
years, as Barton says, for anyone who
dared breathe her name except in
honor.
Even. at the sober age OF forty-slx.
Jackson plunged into 0 tavern brawl
at Nashville with Thomas II. Benton,
afterward the distinguished senator
from Missouri. and was shattered for
life by two balls and a slug which
Benton's brother shot into his back.
That was his lest personal alteration.
Ina few weeks he was called from his
bed OF pain to take part In a public al
tercation between the United States
and Great Britain and, with his arm
stll IN a sling, he rose to do battle for
his country.

MILLIONS AT WAR.

IN VIEW Of the present situation in Europe it would seem that his
/ stand upon the League Of Nations alone should insure Senator
: Hardings overwhelming election. A review published in The
Herald a few days ago showed four million men actively engaged in
eleven wars now in progress across the Atlantic. Under the eondi
tinss OF article X, as proposed by President Wilson and approved
by the democratic party platform the super-governnent proposed by
the Wilson league could command this nation to take an active part in
one Or all Of these eleven wars. II would involve an obligation upon
every man of fighting age in this nation to respond to the call to
arms, not for the defense of his country but to be thrown into a con
fict in a foreign land in which this nation has no object and no
concern.
The administration forces in the San Francisco convention were.
strong enough to commit the democratic party and its candidate to
Just such q program. The people of the United States are in no mood
to undertake such a job or to embark upon such a policy. The
charge that we are evading obligations and exhibiting moral cow
ardice will not hold against the well recognized fact that We have
problems here at home which need and must receive wise solution
before we can properly take part in conflicts foreign to us, even
4 an obligation to participate can be shown. As the republican NOM
in order ~ and il il a job that will permit of no divided attention.
We have ;ust been informed by the treasury department that the
nations tax bill for the fiscal year ended June 30 was five and one
half billion dollars and we had previously been informed that this
unprecedented tax collection would fall short of the years require
ments by a billion dollars or more. The effort is made by the.
of the pockets of the rick, out Of unearned increment and out of the
excess earnings of powerful corporations and war and other profit
teers. But we know that in addition to our own burdensome taxes
the bulk of this huge collection of revenue has been passed on for
payment, indirectly but none the hess surely, TO the masses of the
people, the home owners of the nation the socalled middle class, i"
and we know that the burden thus directly and indirectly imposed,
is more than we can bear for any long periods II f f"
We have had our fling at ideahsm and hysteria world politics
and lapdoodle. It has come. high; much higher than any of us
dreamed when he kept ms out Of war" We are in a mood to take
stock and to talk sense and TO get down to business under practical
leadership that stands FOR America first.
