TOT the average Indn.
He declared that the peace time
record of the democratic party from
March, 1918, to the outbreak of the
world war has to it's credit "more
effective, constructive and remedial
legislation than the republican party
has placed upon the statute books in
a generation"
Praising the administration course
in the war he said: eve fought
great war, for great cause and we
had leadership that carried Am
erica to greater heights of honor and
power and glory than she has ever
known before in her entire history"
Not Taking All Credit
"Let no one misunderstood US.
These great affairs were carried for
ward under the stimulus of Ameri-
can patriotism, supported by the
courage and spirit of our people. All
this is freely and gladly acknowl-
edged, but surely the time has come
when, because of the calculated crit
icism and premeditated calumnies,
of the opposition, we are entitled to
call attention to the fact that all of
these things were accomplished un-
der the leadership of a great demo-
crat and of a great democratic ad-
ministration. If the republican lead
ers are not able to rejoice with us
in this American triumph they should
have the grace to remain silent, for
it does not lie in the mouths of those
who conducted the Spanish-Americau
war to indulge in the luxury of crit
icism."
Referring to congressional inves-
legations by smelling committees"
he said that over 80 investigations
have been made, over two million
dollars wasted and "the result has
been to prove that it was the clean
est war ever fought in the history of
civilization"
''The republican party became so
fixed in its incorrigible habit of con-
ducting Investigations that it finally
turned to the fruitful task of inves-
tigating itself. They discovered fraud
and graft and gross inexcusable eX-
penditures. The revelations disclose
the fact that the meeting at Chicago
was not a convention but an auction.

get the prize. The publicity which
overlook the proceedings frustrated
the initial purpose The Chicago con-
vention left the democratic party as
the sole custodian Of the honor of the
country"
Peace Achievements
Peace achievements of the demo-
cratic party, he asserted, "freed the
farmer from the deadening effects
of usurious financial control Labor
was given its Magma Charta of lib
erty. Business and finance were re-
leased from the thralldom of uncer-
taintv and hazard"
"The income tax law" he said, "re-
lieved our law of the reproach Of be-
ing unjustly burdensome to the poor.
The extravagances and inequities of
the tariff system were removed and

CONVENTION GETS UNDER WAY
OLD AID RECALLS
WILSON WHEN A
GEORGIA LAWYER

A TLANTA, June 28-In turning
4 over the yellow files of the old
Atlanta Constitution of more than
81 years ago, the eye of a reporter
was accidentally arrested this
morning by The following tiny ad-
vertisement, set exactly like the
typical want-ad of today.
E. /. Renick Woodrow Wilson
RENICK & WILSON
Attys. at Law
4S Marietta Street Room 10
Atlanta, Ga.
The date of the newspaper was
March 9, 1888, the issue which
contained the account of the fun
cral of the former vice president
of the Confederacy. Alexander II.
STEPHENS. At that time Room No.
10, at 40 Marietta street, was a
modest and somewhat dusty Of
flee, next door to the old 3 B'iou
theater, in the same ramshackle
bricI builGing which Stands therl
to this day. The shingle, which
hung above the door, remembered
by old Atlanta, was very like
some of the shingles which hang
there now. 1t was there that two
ambitious young lawyers sought
their fortune more than thirty
seven years ago. Very little for
tune ever came to either of them
while they practiced law in Allan
ia. Later their ways parted. Renick
is dead and forgotten save by his
own intimate family and friends.
Woodrow Wilson is the president
of the United States.

The bosses feel toward Bryan
just the way the baseball pitch
ers feel toward Babe Ruth.
There never was a conven-
tion at which the gang was SO
slow in showing up. Maybe it
was on account of the poor
freight service.
This convention is like the Chi
cago affair in one way: A
preacher will open the sessions
with prayer. Both conventions
had to call on outside help.
ess
But in another way it is diff
ferent: None of the boys at this
convention are carrying cash
registers as they did at Chi
cago.
Tom Marshall says he doesn't
want to run. That looks like the
only thing that is unanimous.

the boys all want to know what
the mint is good for under the
XVIIIth amendment.
There is a lot of speculation
here as to the number of ballots
the delegates will be allowed to
take. Everybody thinks they
should be allowed to vote at
least twice, out of consideration
for the hotelkeepers.
One of the FIRST things big
punches of Tammany men did
when they arrived here was to go
out and look at the Pacific ocean
and then knock it. They're all
willing to bet it isn't as big as
the Atlantic.

RTY-FOUR STATES
TO ELECT GOVERNORS
Interest Rivals Presidential Con-
test in Some Places-Third
Party Active.

Thirty-four states are about to
elect governors for terms varying
from one to four years each, and in
many of the states the gubernatorial
contest rivals the presidential con-
test in popular interest. In other
states the election of governor will
be a perfunctory proceeding, as the
real choice was made in the primary
Of the dominant party.
Republicans and democrats Will
have candidates in virtually all OF
the states and the same is true OF
the socialists. Through a large sec
ton of the middle and far west the
artisan league and the new
farmer labor party are displaying
much activity in regards to the com
ing state elections. In some of the

older parties in the selection of cand1-
dates. while in other states they have
put their own tickets in the field.
Maine has already elected it's gov

Thomas w. Hardwick and Clifford
Walker is assured of election. In
South Carolina the present demo-
cratic governor, Robert A. Cooper, is
certain to succeed himself. In all
the other states the choice is believed
to lie between the republican and
democratic candidates. The complete

.BORAH AGAIN ATTACKS
COVENANT Of LEAGUE
Replies to Recent Statement by
the President on
Article K.

NEW HAVEN. Conn. October (by
the Associated Press).-Senator William
E. Borah of Idaho, in ad address here
last night made a vigorous attack on
President Wilson's recent statement on
article Y of the league of nations cove
nant He declared that if this government
refused to take up arms to aid country
in the league which was invaded by an
enemy 1.-The United States steps out dis
credited and dishonored, and the seeds
of wars are scattered broadcast.
1.-THE Presidents last letter to the pub
lie informs us that article X does not
interfere with Congress to declare war
or not to declare war said Senator
Borah. 81 can conceive of but one way
that Congress could get out of declaring
war in case of the invasion of territory
of member of the league. and that
would be to violate and wholly disregard
the plain terms of the treaty. and to
rend in pieces the league covenant it
self. The President has said heretofore
upon solemn OCCASION that article X
constitutes a supreme moral obligation
upon the part of our nation, which moral
obligation upon the part of our nation
he declared, to be more binding than an
obligation of law or contracts Congress
is but an agent of the nation, and in
refusing to carry out a solemn promise
would brand our whole people with dis
honor and moral turpitude.
II would not, of course, presume to
ask the President question, or seek to
engage him in debate. but l would like
to know from his associates who helped
him write this creed that if we accept
article X as written. and Russia invades
the territory of Japan, and Japan,
through the council of the league. calls
upon us to furnish money and men to
help to preserve her territorial integrity
and we refused, what would be the
standing of this proud republic among
the other nations of the world, and what
will hecorna of the leag 1Ie2
eff we exercise the discretion not to
assist, of course, every other nation will
do the same, and this supreme moral
obligation is turned at once into a su-
premely moral pretense. The United
States steps out discredited and dishon-
ored and the seeds of wars are scattered
broadcast"
