There are many farms on which It

often falls. Alsike will not yield as

But given lime It will grow on poofer

LABOR AND THE REPUBLICAN
.-,. PARTY ,h9

President Gompers of the Amer
ican Federation Of Labor is very
much dissatisfied with the platform
adopted BY the republican. couven-
ton His report to the convention
Of that organization at Montreal is
bitter in its denounciation Of the
party and its attitude toward labor
The facts are, that Mr.. Gcmpers
did not appear before the committee
on resolutions in good faith; nor
with the sole desire Of securing fair
and just laws for labor. He has
been close advisor of President
Wilson until quite recently, and went
TO Chicago with demands so radical
and unreasonable that unless he, in
common with the radical element. is
SO drunk with power that he has
lost all his ability to reason fairly
and justly.
Labor has certain rights which
must be respected, but it also has
obligations and duties to govern
ment which must not be disregarded.
If the leaders of organized labor Sc
cure fair and impartial chance to
all reasonable benefits before. the
law they should be satisfied. The
interests of the general public, how
ever, cannot be disregarded in the
interest of any class of the people.
When labor finds that club is
not always the best weapon to use
in securing desired legislation. They
will find reader response on the
part of the general public TO Offer
assistance.

aolders of government bonds pnr-
hased during the war.

solders Of government bonds pur-
hased during the war.
While our men were in France
fiehtind y dake the world safe for
dsmocrady and to retain our country
under its own sovereignty the peo-
pie were asked to buy government
bonds. They were even urged to
buy ,clearnp to the limit.
Campaigns and drives were con-
Quoted to induce the public to dis
gorge its savings and deposit them
in the public hopper. Even the fight
ing men themselves were given no
rest until they had subscribed their
quota.
Americans of every class respond
cd nobly, hundreds of thousands
denying themselves in their patriotic
endeavors oaid in the prosecution
of the war. Our own community
contributed literally, as did every
other section of the country.
The public was allowed to believe
that their bonds would be the safest
kind Of. an Investment, always at
Epsr ana possibly soon at premium.
They bought and kept on buying
because they, loved their country and
had faitb in Uncle Sam. wt
But now they are disillusioned-
distressingly so.
They find that their bonds are
not above par, that they are not at
par, but have shrunk in value to
considerably below par.
They receive low rate of inter-
est, and cannot dispose of single
bond without n financial sacrifice.
The public in general is not say
ing much, but it is doing lot of
hard thinking. 1t is sore and dis
gusted and does not disguise the
fact. There are even intimations
that some day the government will
want to sell more bonds. and will
have difficult time in finding pur-
chasers. The public will not care
to be singed twice in the same place.
There is, however, remedy-if
congress will apply it.
Let these bonds be placed by law
on the same basis as our national
currency--at par value-with the
interest retained Then let it be
made criminal offence for any
person or corporation to refuse to
accept bond at par, plus the inter-
est that has accrued to date. Or in
lien of this. let the interest on these
bonds be raised by act of congress
ITO six per cent, thus placing the
bonds on par with real estate
mortgages and other investments.

represent bond or block of stock
