The League OF Nations was drafted in
order to promote international peace and
security and by acceptance of obligations,
not to resort to war.
| wonder how those 800 heads of all

made such blunder and drafted a league
for war and not a league for peace, as
the Republican party claims 1t is all
bunkum. Their argument is so thin that
Ii will cease to have thickness by the
second day of November, 1920, ACCORDING e
to signs of today. All signs indicate that

gressives will have our election in No

moral issue might be lost and defeated,

am sure that If the mothers and lovers
Of world peace of this nation, could under
stand the real purpose Of this league and
vote their convictions, I assure Won Gov

would go over the top as your boys did

To the mothers I would say that there

MANDATE MAY BE
NEXT PARTY MOVE
New Ticket Refused Place on
County Ballot.

The arbitrary action of County Clerk
Richard Sipe and jackson Carter, Repub-
lican members of the Marion County
board of election commissioners, In re-
fusing to place the name Of the Inde-
pendent Republican party with its can
.didates for county Office on the official
ballots today paved the way for the fling
of a possible mandamus proceedings to
compel the commissioners to place the
party name and candidates on the ball
lots.
The action in refusing to place the In
dependent Republican party candidates
on the ballots was taken by Slpe and
Carter late yesterday afternoon after
Harry c. Hendrickson, Republican county
chairman, filed a petition objecting to
representative colored citizens running for
Office on the Independent Republican
party ticket
Chairman Hendrickson expressed bis
objections to the colored citizens having
their own party candidates in competition
TO the regular machine Republican ticket
on the following grounds: 4
That the name 4 Independent Repub-
liean party is similar to the Republican
party
That the name Of the colored party
might cause confusion" at the polls.
OBJECT TO
REPUBLICAN NAME
That it ''is not fair and legally sound
that the name of Independent Repub-

AMERICAN
PEOPLES WISH
is FOR LEAGUE
Marion Man, in Letter, De-
clares Harding on Re-
action Road.

E. Manson Lewis of Marion, in the fol-
lowing letter to The Times, presents a
strong argument in the interest of the
League of Nations and the Democratic
party:
Today our nation. the United States Of
America. and the greatest of all ma
tions, with no exceptions whatsoever is
facing the greatest moral and religious
issue of all time, the League of Nations.
This league seems to be hanging in the
great balance of opinion.
You will vote your opinion on the
second day of November. VIII you vote
to tilt the great balance In favor of the
scrapping of this great document and a
separate peace with Germany, or viii
you vote to tilt the great balance in ia
yor of this wonderful document. which
stands for world peace and no separate
peace with Germany?
We seem to have arrived at a fork IN
the road of this great highway of hu-
manity where we stand in hesitaney and
wonder. One of these roads leads TO re-
action, the other to progress. Governor
Cox is on that road to progress with
the League of Nations unfurled as a
banner with the Inscription, World
Peace and No Separate Peace With Ger
many" To vote for this peerless leader
and the principles for which he stands
would be only keeping faith with the
boys who sleep in Flanders field, where
peoples blow
Senator Harding is on the road to re-
action with the League Of Nations tightly
rolled and concealed from Taft, Hughes
and Root and on his way to the scrap
heap to destroy that which would be
dear to every American soul If he could
but form an opinion without coming in
contact with the misrepresentation OF
the league as set out by the reactiOnary
forces of the Republican party.
Senator Harding said In a speech re-
Gently that the League of Nations was
so weak and frail that 1t couldn't stop
the wars of Europe and on the following
day he said it was so strong and mon
strous that IL would drag this big United
States into war. He must be a double
headed statesman with two sets of
brains, each having different opinion.
Harding still clings to the theory that
the League of Nations IS a league for
war, but he has never explained why it
is a league for war. If any one ever
read the preamble to the covenant they

and 1t was not until the Republican
County committee got busy and cracked
the whip that the majority members Of
the board decided to jump" said Mr.
Mason,
Attorneys were working on mandamns
proceedings which were to be fled in the
interest Of the colored voters late this
afternoon or early tomorrow.
Indiana daily times., 1920-10-20

Ill Hudson street can not be located at
that address.
The Republicans have been worried
since representative colored citizens de-
cided to have their own candidates for
county office instead Of submitting to
the machine ticket of the Republicans.
FIND MANY FAULTS
WITH PARTY.
Commissioners Sipe and Carter first
found fault with the party emblem, a
bust of Lincoln. which the Independent
Republican party members asked to be
placed on the ballots.
The two Republican commissioners re-
fused to permit the placing Of Lincoln's
bust on the ballots, as well as picture
ofNan elephant, as they held the Repub-
llcaps had n monopoly ON elephants.
The condescending Republican election
commissioners decided that lion, tail
ana all, would be an appropriate emblem
for the cclored voters
Now, after more protest from Chair
man Hendrickson, the Republican mem
bers Of the election board hold that the
colored citizens do not legally have a
right to vote for candidates on an inde-
pendent Republican party ticket.
1t is said that mandamus suits will be
fled to compel the Republican commits
sioners to follow the law.
Woodburn Mason, Democratic member
Of the election board, refused to be a
party to the actions subscribed to by
Sipe and Carter
woodbura Mason, Democratic member
of the county election board, in discus
sing the arbitrary actions of Sipe and
Carter, said:
Il made written objection for the
minutes of the meeting which was sud
denly called for about O'Clock yester-
day afternoon and when l arrived with
ont knowing the nature of the meeting
Charles Roenler pulled out OF lis pocket
the petition OF Chairman Eendrickson.
NOT HARD TO
FoRETELL ACTION.
Il told him that 1t was not necessary
to read it as I knew what the two other
members of the board were going to do.
i knew that they were going to throw
, hut the ticket of the Independent Re
publican party after they had agreed TO
place 1t on the ballots
II maintained the colored voters had O
right to be heard. as the time expired
last night for the filing OF petitions to
be placed on the ballots.
"A hearing was denied over my pro-
test that the board had no Jurisdiction
to question a petition when IL was sworn

sions of the statutes.

FROM LUXURY To NECESSITY.
Electric Plants and Automobiles
Show a Profit on the Farm.

When the automobile was first
presented to the farmer he bought
it, if he bought it at all, as a pleas
ure vehicle. Now he is buying auto
mobile trucks to do his hauling.
Government figures show that as an
average all over the United States
it costs Is cents to haul a ton of
farm products a mile with a motor
truck where it costs 33 cents to
haul a ton of products a mile with
horses.
With this opportunity Of redUcin.
his hauling cost so per cent it is
only natural that the farmer should
be turning to the motor truck as
means of getting his produce into
town.
This matter of hauling is only one
of the things in which the farmer
| is beginning to consider very care
fully the cheapest way of doing
anything. He has come to realize that
every hour he spends in doing un-
productive labor means an increase
IN the cost Of producing his yearly
crop and hence a decrease in the net
profit for the years work. He is
coming to realize the great impor-
lance of time and labor saving.
This is one of the reasons why
the small electric plant is becoming
such a factor in farm life and work.
says Mr.. Halvorson of the Delco
Light Agency OF DEBORAH. Accurate
statistics are not available but it is
quite reasonable to assume that at
least 10000 farms in America are
being served by these electric plants.
Electric motors, by doing the
pumping, grinding, churning, milk
ing, separating and hundred other
farm tasks either eliminate certain
kinds of labor altogether or make
a two man job into a one man Job,
and the farmer appreciates this
saving of time. Not only this but
electricity on the farm through its
giving of bright, clean and safe
electric light gives a service which is
not only appreciated by the farmer
but by his wife and every member OF
his family.

BE PRETTY! TURN
GRAY HAIR DARK
Look young! Nobody can tell II you
use Grandmother's simple recipe
of Sage Tea and Sulphur.

Almost everyone knows that sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound.
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streak
ed or gray. Years ago the only way
to get this mixture was to make II
at home, which is mussy and trouble
some Nowadays. by asking at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" you will get a large
bottle of this famous old recipe, I'M
proved by the addition Of other In
gradients, at small cost.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair. as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, your hair
becomes beautifully dark, glossy and
attractive.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is delightful toilet requisite
for those who desire dark hair and 9
youthful appearance. 1t is not IN
tended for the cure, mitigation or pre-
Vention of disease.
