Don't Hesitate to Lie.
One reason why a great many people

is that they have not read it. In
stead of studying it out for themselves,
they have taken the word of men who

in order to discredit the president. Not

of the anti-treaty papers statements
that, on turning to our copy of the
treaty, we found in exact variance to
the truth Senator Reed has been
putting up a good deal of that sort
of argument.-Ocala Evening Star.
