CAN'T UNDERSTAND IT.

But Harding calls for a greater
faith and a more implicit trust IN
his followers. He rejects the
lea que, but he furnishes no SUBJ
stitute. On this point he says:
Il would hope fully approach
the nations of Europe and of the
earth, proposing that understand
ing which makes US a willing
participant in the conservation OF
nations to a new relationship. -
Nashville Tennessean.
Will the Tennessean just tell US
what in its opinion would be a
substitute. What has been the I'M
Outstanding in the past? 1t has,
we believe, after the unpleasant
ness of sundry occasions, been
based with christian nations on
christian principles. and on what
else could an understanding
among nations be based? When
nations, or rather, the ambitious
men who rule them, get that
idea - Christianity - into their
noodles, then there will be no
more war, but as along as self
ishness and greed dominates. the
devil will have a firm grip on
things, such as he has had for
the past four years. Harding
does not say he will force the
nations of the earth into a new
relationship. as is implied by the
league of nations with it's decree
that military assistance shall be
furnished, but he does say he
will hopefully approach them.
This is exactly how Christian
approaches man in error of ways
or man with whom he wishes
to deal. he hopefully approaches
him, proposing an understanding
that will make him a willing par
ticipant in a new relationship.
If he fails, he quits the job, not
having recourse to a club, in
sorrow that he cannot deal with
the man. If Harding cannot be
understood, is he more so than
the Delphic oracle that sits at
Washington and prating of peace.
deluges US with war?

Farley P. Christensen, cundi-
date for president of the Farm
er-Labor Party. says that Sena-
tor Harding is boxing at a ghost
when he criticises the league of
nations. Why parley about it at
all, Mr.. Christensen? Unfortun-
ately the Democratic donkey is
braying loudly that it is an issue,
and as all the brain of the coun-
try is supposed to be centered at
Washington why not allow Sena-
tor Harding to fight the ghost to
HIS own satisfaction and that of
millions of voters who will for
ever settle its inquietude in
November.

1t is folly to close our eyes to
outstanding facts. Humanity is
FESTIVE, much of the world is in
revolution, the agents of discord
and destruction have wrought
their tragedy in pathetic Russia,
have lighted their torches am ong
other peoples, and hope to see
America as a part of the great
Red confisgration. Ours is the
temple of liberty under the law,
and it is ours to call the Sons of
Opportunity to its defense.
America must not only save
herself, but ours must be the ap-
pealing voice to sober the world.

Marion, Observation-Disclosures G.
Harding was officially notified here of
his nomination as the Republican can
didate for the presidency. His speech
of acceptance is, In part. as follows:
Chairman Lodge, members of Motif
cation Committee, members of National
Committee, ladies and gentlemen: The
message which you have formally con-
'veyed brings to me a realization Of
responsibility which is not underesti-
mated. 1t Is a supreme task to inter-
pref the covenant of great political
party, the activities of which are SO
woven into the history Of this repub-
lie, and a very sacred and solemn
undertaking to utter the faith and as
pirations of the many millions who
adhere to that party. The party plat
form has charted the way, yet, some
how, we have come to expect that in
depreciation which voices the faith of
nominees who must assume specific
tasks.
Let me be understood clearly from
the very beginning. I believe in party
sponsorship In government l believe

Men who were unwise enough

Men who were unwise enough
to assume the duties of tax asses
sor this year are receiving whole
sale excoriation now all over the
State of Tennessee. The truth is
the blame should be placed on the
Roberts tax initiation law which
assessors were bound to carry
out. We would rather maui rails
than be an assessor under such a
law as that, and. if 1t remains on
the statute book, there will be a
fiercer howl when prices, and
values with them, begin to drop.

In party government as distinguished
from personal government, individual,
dictatorlal, autocratic or what not.
No man is big enough to run this
great republic. There never has been
one. Such domination was never in
tended. Tranquility, stability, depend
ability-all are assured in party spon-
sorship, and we mean to renew the as
surances which were rended in the
cataclysmal war.
Our first committal is the restora-
ton of representative popular govern
ment, under the constitution, through
the agency Of the Republican party.
Our vision includes more than chief
executive, We believe in cabinet Of
highest capacity, equal to the RESPONSE
bilities which our system contern-
plates, In whose councils the vice
president, second official Of the repub-
lie, shall be asked to participate. The
same vision includes a cordial under
standing and co-ordinated activities
with house Of Congress, fresh from
the people, voicing the convictions
which members bring from direct con-
tact with the electorate, and cordial
cooperation along with the restored
functions Of the senate, fit to be the
greatest deiberative body Of the
world.
International Relationship.
1t is not difficult Chairman Lodge,
to make ourselves clear on the ques-
ton of international relationship.
We Republicans Of the senate, con-
scious of our solemn oaths and mind
full of our constitutional obligations,
when we saw the structure OF
world super-government taking Wis
ionary form, Joined in a becoming
warming If our devotion to this re-
public. II he torch of constitutional
ism had not been dimmed, the delayed
peace of the world and the tragedy of
disappointment and Europe's misun-
derstanding ,f America easily might
have been avoided. The Republicans
OF the senate halted the barter Of in
dependent American eminence and in
fiuence, which It was proposed to ex-
change for an obscure and unequal
place in the merged government of the
world. Our parry means to hold the
Heritage of American nationality I'M
impaired and unsI rendered.
The world will rot misconstrue. We
do not mean to hold aloof. We do not
mean to shun single responsibility
OF this republic to world civilization.
There Is no hate in the American
heart. We have no envy. no suspicion.
no aversion for any people In the
Dorid. We hold to eur rights, and

TENNESSEAN CRITICIZES.
Speaking of Senator Harding,

Speaking of Senator Harding,
the Nashville Tennessean says:
He is an advocate of a small
army. He would have America
got its way alone and unarmed.
He would have no American
soldiers on foreign soil. "
That's just one of the points of
the November election which the
people will settle. Just as there
are no British, French or German
troops onAmerican soil. Amer
leans, real Americans, say they do
not want American troops on for
eign soil. The idea is wrong and
theTennessean knows it. Suppose
England was to adopt the same
idea, and quarter troops in Ten
nessee? Would it not be a pecu-
liar policy? Yet this is just the
bottom of the democratic
argument, that we must police
the world. We have reds and
undesirables in this country. we
regret to say, even Irish in great
numbers eager to get their coun'
try from beneath the rule of
England, and that government
could we'll demand that it be
permitted to quarter troops on
this side to hold these elements
down, and having our own troops
scattered over foreign lands could
we refuse. Then indeed we would
have to make America a big camp
and turn one-half of the citizens
into soldiers and the other half
into slaves to support them. A
small army as a nucleus with
good equipment for defense is the
best policy, for Americans can
fight in defense of their coun-
try as no other people.

Are Discussed By Mr..

Mount Vernon Public Library is in
dire need Of financial support, accord
ing to the report made today by Mr..
H. G. Devin, President of the board
Of trustees of the library, before the
members of the Chamber Of Com
merce at their noon-day luncheon.
Mr.. Devin was the speaker of the
day, taking the place Of the man who
did not appear for the finance COM
mittee which had charge Of the lunch.
con program.
In the course of the next sixty days
the trustees will be forced to close the
doors Of the public library unless some
way is found to relieve the financial
embarrassment Of the institution. The
problem was brought before the cham
ber in order that the members might
offer any suggestion, looking toward
relief.
Besides the approximate sum of 3d.
500 invested at four and five percent,
the library is dependent upon taxation
for it's support. The new budget does
not provide penny for the library,
and it will be closed in the near fu-
ture for this reason. There may be
some assistance from the legislature
but it is not looked for by many.
What is needed is a taxation plan
for raising $25OO for the maintenance
Of the library, and it is hoped that
some person interested will propose
this plan to the trustees. This was the
message from the president of the IL
brary board of trustees.

discussion of the tax revlsions that
