FRAILEY FLAILS DENIS
 Y IN JOINT DEBATE

MIAMI-The proof of democratic national extravaganza was presented in appalling figures here by Senator Joseph R. Frailey, of Iowa, in joint debate against Carlton Chamber Jayne, of New York. Chamberlayne attempted to defend the Wilson ad- ,ministration by glittering generali- ties, lauding it for it's high idealism, but had nothing to say that really an- swered the amazing figures present. ed by his adversary.
 "The democrats are on the defens- ive," said Senator Frailey. Instead of record of accomplishment, they come before us with record of ex- cuses and failure. This is small won- der, for their policy of the last seven years has been one of mystery, un- certainty, inconsistency and abnor- mality, and inconceivable twisting and turning in the office of the chief exec utive.
 "The result is,S the old democracy is gone. In its place we have new democracy of isms and ismatics, rad realism, internationalism and incipient socialism. The domcrats have but two ISSutS OI WIlICD tIICII hopCS ol continuation in power. One of these is the league of nations without res ervations. The other is the foreign and domestic policy of the admins tration. The former is dead issue and the latter will not bear scrutiny. Im- agine the forlorn hope of trying to make the league of nations para mount issue when it has been repudi- ated publicly and secretly on every occasion. The senate, by non-par- tisan vote, repudiated it, so have the people whenever it was an issue, and now openly the high representatives of European powers in conference at Paris.
 "The league of nations is as dead as free silver. Lloyd-G George has come out with the truth at last with frank statement showing that the league of nations was given to Wilson as sop to his ambition and vanity"
 As to democratic extravaganza, Frailey said: "In the building of can comments alone. on the infamous 10 per cent plus basis, the waste was SIS 5O0,000, as shown by special in vcstigation committee of congress. Despite the recent statement of Gen eral Pershing that the A. E. F. was entirely dependent upon the British and French for airplanes, the govern ment spent one billion and 51 mil lions on it's aircraft program. The cost of operating the government in 1916 was s1, ,S00,000,000. This year the democrats are asking for $5,269,- 000, ,00O Cut off one billion interest on the war debt and SPAS, 100000 for soldiers insurance and we still have four billion dollar expense.
 Where does the money go? There are 100000 federal job holders; 250,- 900 of these are still holding war jobs at Washington.
 "When Woodrow Wilson went to Paris for the signing of the peace treaty, he took with him an army of 1900 courtiers. They filled two of the best hotels and when they left, the government had to pay $35O,00O for damages committed. The president rented a palace for S1 ,000 900 and S2,-

100000 were spent in furnishing it.
 And this is the kind of extrava- gance that you and I were called up- on to pay for by the purchase of lib- erty bonds And this is the kind of extravaganza which we are still paying for in income taxes and excess profits taxes, and taxes on soda water, amusements, tooth paste and most ev- erything else.
 "The democrats point with pride to the income tax, but I am here to tell you that it is the secret of the nigh cost of living. Does the rich manu- facturer pay the tax? He does not. He passes it on the jobber. The job Der adds his tax to the price he makes to the wholesaler and the wholesaler does the same with the retailer and the retailer does the same with the customer. That is why we are paying S17.00 for S4.00 shoes. The consumer is paving for at least four other per- sOnsn "

"wORM" STILL TURNS

Still the stills distill. In visit made by the deputy sheriff to the home of an Austrian, near the new Inspiration school building, at Mi anna, parts of still, which apparently had been hastily dismantled and the different sections concealed or de- stroyed were found in an outhouse of the home. The worm had been re- moved and only the less important parts remained. Insomuch as the worm is the heart and lungs of still, and that essential part had been re- moved, the owner was not placed un- der arrest, but was given friendly tip from the officers to watch his steps in the future.

UP TO WILSON NOW

D0Sidim5 IHdt tue war with Gefm-
any ended in great constitutional
effort to have congress usurp the pres
ident's constitutional prerogative of
negotiating treaty of peace. Sena-
ator Knox's labors have finally been
crowned with success in the adoption
by the senate. and later by the house
of his resolution, after it was curtaf1-
ed of its most preposterous clause,
expressly asking the president to ne
gotiate separate peace with Ger
many, but with no less than three ref
erences still remaining in the absurd
document to the Versailles peace trea
ty, the benefits of which must be ac
corded to the United States despite
the United States reputation of the
treaty, and to other treaties to be ne
gotiated by the president before the
Knox treaty declaring the state of
war ended could become effective.
1t scarcely seems necessary for the
president to veto this purile perform
hnce. but every body recognizes that
in the shapeless shape, and void of
sense or form in which it has been
framed for the president there is no
alternative left the president but o
veto it.
The banded foes of the league COW
enant under the leadership of Sena-
tor Lodge hope to benefit from this
performance by making the people
believe that it was an honest effort
to bring about peace, which was foil
ed by the president. But they are I'M
the intelligence of the
American people
The Knox peace resolution can on
ly stultify Senator Lodge and his fol-
lowing. "In December 1918" as the
New York World says, Senator
Lodge opened all tie Walls of his
wrath upon everybody who ventured
to suggest that the United States
might dissociate itself from the
in guaranteeing that peace or in
fdrcing that peace. I'VE canno
the ordinary way make peace,
said. I'VE cannot in the first pl
make peace except in company
our allies. 1t would brand us
everlasting dishonor and bring
to us if we undertook to make
arate peace
Under the leadership of Hd
Cabot Lodge the Republicans of
senate have now adopted 'everlas
dishonor as their pre- convention
eign policy. After refusing to ra
.he peace that the president made
company with our allies they
purpose to decree by joint resolu
the separate peace that would 'bl
ruin to us.
But the Knox resolution will
bring ruin to US and no everl
ing dishonor'' will attach to the
ted States in consequence of this
olution, as the World says. "Pr
dent Wilson will prevent that.
there will be plenty of "everlas
dishonor for a senate and house

san trickery in dealing with the pc
