Governor Cox asked a Columbus
audience what the soldiers would say
about the Wilson league of nations.
Well, the soldiers of the Grand Army.
in national encampment assembled at
Columbus last year denounced 1t as
a scheme for the surrender of Ameri-
can independence. A poll of the
soldiers of the world war would show
that a vast majority resent the effort
of Democratic politicians to make il
appear that what they fought for was
the Democratic party and the Wilson
league instead Of the flag OF their
country.

Why We'll Vote
For Republicans

The Silver State will print in this
| column some reasons for amliation
with the Republican party. Under
| the above head each issue will be
| printed short parts of an article pre-
| pared on the subject, which will take
| form of what we consider logical
| argument on economic questions OF
the day. without color or abuse to the
| opposition party.
why Are Governments Instituted
Should governments exercise par
| entail care over the people composing
| the government? Or do governments
| discharge all their appropriate n
ftions when they insure liberty. af-
| ford protection, and encourage indus
try so that citizens normal In mind
| and body may be able to take care or
| themselves? Should governments do
for the people what the people can
| appropriately do for themselves? Or
| should it limit its activities TO doing
| for them only what they cannot do.
There is ample scope for govern
mental energy in the exercise of func-
| tons inappropriate for the citizen. 1t
must make and enforce laws protect
ing from murder, robbery, theft. ar
son, %extortion. coercion and exploita-
ton, and in addition must provide for
the ommon defense. In short. it must
do all those things which the pre-
| amble of our constitution recites as
| reason why I'VE, the people" adopted
that immortal document.
All free governments are controlled
by political parties. All other peo-
ples are ruled. Under a Republican
form of government political leader
ship is a prime essential of liberty.
What Is a Political Partyl
What is a political party? A poll
teal party is a body of men and wo-
men who have. or should have. some
definite and definable conception of
the fundamental principles of state
craft. They have. so to speak, plans,
specifications and blue-prints by
which they propose to erect the
super-structure of government upon
foundations firmly laid by the fathers.
The two old parties profess equal
respect for fundamental principles.
The socialists. and their more re-
Gently born full-blood brothers, ex-
pressly declare their purpose to tear
out the foundations, destroy the plans
submitted by Madison and Hamilton,
and approved by the convention over
which Washington presided, and to
adopt in lieu the Russian style of
architecture. Lest WI be charged
with disappearing. we stop to con-
cede that some of them hope to be
able to stop somewhat short of
sovietism. But for purposes of this
campaign it is sufficient to know that
each and all these new groups are
irrevocably committed to such I'M
shapely edifices that they will not fit
and cannot be made to rest upon
what the Fathers hoped would be
eternal. Washington's warning
against undermining what cannot be
~overthrown" is very pertinent.

"A LITTLE NONSENSE NOW
AND THEN Is RELISHED By
THE BEST OF MEN,

Keep going, a bicycle idle has to
be proped up.
More people take vacations becaus,
they want them than because they
need them.
There is more good in the worl6
than bad. but the bad makes nearly
all the noise.
Why is II that folks who never
work for bread are among the first
who want to eat 1t?
ttt
The main thing that's wrong with
the world is that there are so many
unnecessary people in 1t.
TT
When a man arrives at the age
where he would rather strut than
work. he's going down hill.
TT
Everybody is a bore some time or
other and it's important for him to
know when that time comes.
TT
II you are worried by small crit
cisms and small critics. II e tina
you are the same size as the critics.
TT
There wouldn't be so much com
plant either, If girls could hide a Sc
cret as well as they can hide theil
ears.
Now that the women can vote WI
suppose it will keep all the men folk
busy on election day sharpening lea6
pencils.
Time brings wonderful changes.
Nowadays the Winnemucca man who
years old clothes gets mad if you
don't notice it.
TT
The way a girl dresses is nobody's
business. but we always suspect the
size or shape or the cleanliness of
the ears under hair puffs.
III
The government has offered avia-
ton services to football players or
the assumption that football players
have q lot of nerve and are accus
toned to severe struggles. Why not
extend the offer to married men for
the same reasons?
TT
1t is said the people of Germany
have been taught to believe that the
United States. with the exception of
woolly wilderness. That's nothing
Many New Workers think the Ohio
river is the Pacific ocean.
TT
About twice a year a country edi-
tor raises noise with the mail-order
houses. to please the local merchants
in his old home town. But If the
country merchant would advertise
as much as the mail-order houses he
could become so busy that he would
not have to worry about the mail
order houses.
Few of us a leave great and
wOndrous monuments to perpetuate
our memory when we are gone, but
each and every one of us can leave
the monument of a kind heart, an
honest purpose, a clean life and a
good example to our children and
for the generations to follow when
we are nothing but a memory.

Declaring that "the old parties have

torial urged the formation of IAN ag-

which, he says, popular government

The republican and democratic con-

that both these parties are completely

editorial. Election of either of their
candidates means a dictatorship Of pIu-

servitude for the great mass of the
people. They have shamefully deceived
and ruthlessly betrayed the voters"
The editorial goes. on. to attack the

the people must enter upon the SUI

liberties and economic freedom or else

the Wisconsin senator, as "a mere. al.
