GOVERNMENT BONDS.

The Treasury Department has al
ready purchased and cancelled Liberty
Bonds amounting in the aggregate to
the enormous sum OF $1,553, 299, 412.
and has also purchased and Cancelled
hundreds of millions of Victory Bonds.
The government purchases these
bonds at their .marketsprice, instead Of
their face value, The public paid
the full face value, Of every <bond is
sued by the government and the gov
eminent should: :endeavor to keep its
bonded Indebtedness at par. r
Congress will probably pass legisla-
ton at it's next session permitting the
calling Of a certain number Of 81 Liberty
and Victory Bonds each month at par.
That would bring the price of all
bonds up to par.
The Government is under obligation
to pay it's bonds at their par value,
and not use it's surplus revenues in
the purchase of its obligations at a
deprecated market price. The pres
emit practice is wrong morally and can
not stand before the light of congress
sional debate.

A CLEAR CUT ISSUE.

From the Springfield Republican GnU
"Since the Republican platform does
not call for the ratification of the Yer.
sailles Treaty under any conditions
and leaves open the question even of a
separate peace with Germany, Repub-
lican success in the election would
furnish no popular mandate for rati-
fication and would in no degree weak
en- the position of those Republican
Senators who voted invaribly to kill
the Treaty outright.
Here, then, is clear-cut issue be-
tween the Republican and Democratic
parties, the Democrats standing for
definite, thoroughly understood pol
icy of liquidating the war by accepting
the same Treaty which the other bel
ligerents have accepted and joining
the same League which Twenty-Five
other nations, belligerent and neutral
alike, have joined This issue can not
fail to influence powerfully the cam
paign, by virtue of the undisguised
conflict between the parties which
the two platforms emphasize'

THE BOLSHEVIKI PARTY.

While it seems almost unbelievable
that there can be Bolsheyike party
in this country it is nevertheless true
IT'S delegates have assembled in con-
yention and nominated for the presl-
dencv convicted felon by the name OF
Debs, who is now serving a long term
sentence in the Federal Penitentlarv
at Atlanta, Georgia.
And they notified Debs OF his nom
nation and in his acceptance speech,
referring to previous remark that he
was a Bolshevist, he said: Il meant
it then, and l mean it now. did
not mean that ! was a Russian Boil
shevist in America, but that l was
fighting for the same thing in Ameri-
ca that they were fighting for in Rus
STA" Lenine, the leader of the Rus
sian Bolshevist admits that 100000
of his followers control great ma
ton. They retain control ny uluIuel-
ing the educated and intelligent and
by instituting species of slavery.
Labor armies are drafted for different
kinds Of work, much the same as the
soldiers are drafted for the army, and
those who refuse to obey are not per-
mitted to live long enough to be
troublesome Tortures and shamples
are prescribed for those who try to OBJ
serve the Ten Commandments or re-
fuse to obey any of the rules of the
cruel oligarchy.
The Bolsheviki has no right to at
tempt by force to change this govern
ment, and every man who publicly adj
vocates such a doctrine is a public
enemy and dangerous criminal, and
should be either locked up like Debs
or banished from the country.

ROOSEVELT LANDS HOT SHOT ON

This is Franklin D. Roosevelt's re-
ply to the charge of Senator Harding,
that President Wilson had forced the
Democratic presidential and vice
presidential nominees to accept his
views that the League Of Nations
should be the dominant campaign is
sue: .......
81 am quite willing to let the Ameri-
can people decide whether they will
60 back to the conditions of 1914 or
whether they will join with civilization
and humanity in this great step for
ward"
1.-THE attempt by Senator Harding
yesterday, to befog the true league Of
nations issue by dragging in the name
of President Wilson is merely further
evidence of the historical fact that a
certain type of senatorial mind cares
more about squaring an ancient grudge
against an individual than it does to
consider the true welfare of the ma
ton.
History will take care of the great
part Woodrow Wilson has played. But
the democratic party enters the cam
paign with the clear cut purpose Of
proving that the world war has not
been fought in vain.
lone Of the prominent issues is thus
becoming early and clearly drawn. A
democratic victory means, ratification
of the treaty and the league of ma
tons. A republican victory means
that the United; States, With Russh,
Mexico and Turkey, shall remain OUT

PROVIDENCE ON THE FARMERS
SIDE THIS SUMMER. ...

Last spring was unseasOnably cold,
wet and backward and the outlook
for farm crops was dark and dis
couraging. But June, the first month
of summer brought sunshine and warm
weather, and ever since then all prod
ucts of the soil have forged ahead
with a rapidity seldom equalled. Hay
and oats, while not quite up to the
average, are far better than could
reasonably have been hoped for the
latter part of May, and corn and po
tatoes are we'll up to the average of
former years.
The Department of Agriculture re-
ports that not single important crop
will fail this year in any part of the
country.

Our political opponents seem to
think that they are making point
against the Democratic party when
they say that President Wilson is still
the boss of his party. In certain
sense that is true. Wilson's ideals
are as ingrained in the Democratic
party of today as were the ideals of
Jefferson century ago. President
Wilson in his grave would still be the
supreme commander of the Democrat
ic party in the campaign this year and
in the campaigns of many years to
come.

"The Democratic platform marks
a measure Of progress not found in
