will come to an end if we have more
than two dominant parties. If we
should come to this position, there will
be no possibility of the American
people securing an expression of the
will of the majority and we shall be
entirely ruled by log rolling minorities
or sterile political coalitions.
"T am convinced that those of us
and l believe they are the majority
of the party,-who hold more definite
views, could not, even were we so in
clined, successfully effect the consum-
nation of such views outside the par
ty, and that our duty is to endeavor
to lring them to realization within
theE party organization itself as the
issues on which they bear arise. The
tendencies of the party will gain their
meaning only from actual administra-
ton.
"T am convinced that unity of ac-
tion among the liberal thinkers of the
party, especially if they exert them
selves in the current of congressional
elections, will insure the country
against legislative reaction.
"'If the Republican party is not to
be irrevocably split l cannot conceive
that Senator Harding will for one mo-
ment submit the administrative side
of the government to the domination
of any group or coterie. Furthermore
we have the possibility of having adj
ministrative measures and policies de-
termined by full cabinet responsibility,
and of having cooperation restored
with the legislative side of the gov
ernment. / need not reiterate my cen
viction that the constructive ability
so critically needed for the vigorous
business reorganization of the federal
government and to meet the many
economic issues before us lies in the
Republican party.
For all these reasons, | believe
that those of us who look upon party
organization, not from the point of
view of partisanship, but solely from
the point of view of its usefulness as
an agency of maximum service to the
country, should support the Republi-
can party at the polls.
"'Yours faithfully,
"'Herbert Il" Hoover"

The Republican nominee for the
presidency, Senator Warren G. Hard
ing, is often referred to as being of
"the Mckinley type" Few greater
compliments could be paid to an
American statesman. The nation
would be fortunate indeed to have
such man in the White House. That
lis the kind needed there now.-Salina
(Kans.) Journal.
In the presidential election eight
years ago the Democrats carried Ohio
by 100000 votes. Four years ago
they carried it by almost 10000 DOOM
ing the chances of Judge Hughes, the
Republican presidential candidate.
Midway between 1912 and 1916 Ohio
held its election for United States sen.
ator and Warren G. Harding was the
candidate and won by 100000 votes,
carrying into office the entire Repub
lican state ticket.-Newburgh IN. W

DO NOT BUY WILD CAT STOCK

H. H. Dignan, president of the
Chamber of Commerce, spoke at the
meeting Tuesday in opposition to the
exploiting of Owosso people by pro-
moters of mining and oil stock issues
and other equally uncertain invest
ments, when there is plenty of oppor-
tunity for safe investment in Owosso
A campaign of publicity against this
evil is to be carried on by the or
ganization.
The Commission authorized the is
suance of bonds in the sum of S16,-
900 Monday to pay for it's share of
the cost of installing boulevard lights
in the business district and on Main
street from the bridge west to the Ann
Arbor tracks. The estimated cost of
the improvement is $22,757.22 for the
down town district and $8,7S1 SO for
West Main street. The city will pay
half the cost and the abutting prop
erty owners the other half. All will
be paid as taxes and will be spread
over period of three years. Local
parties will take the bonds to facili-
tate the work. Bids will be advertis-
ed for Immediately that work may be
started as soon as possible.
The advisability of going ahead
with the home service program of the
Red Cross, as voted at a recent Red
Cross meeting at the armory, was dis
cussed Tuesday at the noon meeting
of the Chamber of Commerce. The
consensus of opinion among members
of the organization is against carry
ing it out. They prefer that the money
raised in the country for Red Cross
purposes during the war, be used in
the hospital, a county institution, or
that it be held for use in case o. an
emergency.

Washington Letter.

Washington, June 29.-(Special cor
respondence)-"The prices of warm
products which the consumers in cities
pay are at least twice what the farm
er who produces such products re-
ceives," stated Representative Hor-
ace M. Tower, of Iowa, in a recent
session of Congress. "The 100 per cent
increase between the farmer and the
consumer shows the unconscionable
profits which the dealers receive" )"
For the benefit of both the farmer and
the consumer the Republican Congress
enacted a law authorizing association
of producers of agricultural products
and exempting them from the anti
trust laws. The law insures the right
of farmers, dairymen, fruitgrowers
and ranchmen to combine for the col
lective marketing and sale of their
own produce. Control of the associa-
tions authorized by the law is placed
within the jurisdiction of the Secre-
tary of Agriculture.

tween the ages of IL and 20 and to
leaders of girls. From Alma the Pere
Marquette may be taken to Vesta-
burg at which place a bus will meet
the trains July 8. 1t is probable that

while at camp will be $40. 81 of this
amount should be sent in TO insure a
place in camp by June 80, and may
be mailed to the Y. w. C. A., Owosso.

THAT WILSON DRAG

In the middle of June, the Secretary
of the Treasury issued a bulletin
showing the condition of the Finances
Of the United States on February 80.
Being only three months and halt
behind in making up financial state
ment isn't so bad for Wilson admin
istration, but it is some slow for a
government supposed to be gifted
with American enterprise.

Republicans Release Resources


The Interior Department recently
announced regulations under which
oil lands, embraced in the land leas-
ing law enacted by the Republican
Congress, are to be operated. The
regulations were promulgated by Sec
retary of the Interior Payne following
conference between representatives
of the department and oil operators.
They cover the drilling and operation
of wells and the production and gaug-
ing of oils. "The law providing for
the lease of coal, oil and gas lands is
one of the most constructive pieces of
legislation enacted by the Congress"
stated Representative Simeon d. Fess,
of Ohio, before the adjournment of
Congress.

WON IN SPITE OF THEM

"Who won the war;" asked Repre-
sentative William j. Graham, of Illi-
nois, in the House of Representatives,
before the adjournment of Congress.
"Not the present administration. 1t
has but little ground for self-congrat-
ulation. 1t failed in preparedness. 1t
failed in accomplishment. 1t filled the
air with fine phrases and spent the
peoples money. But l will tell you
who won the war. The people, whose
great heart was stirred to sacrifice
and whose funds flowed out in a gol-
den stream. But above all, it was
the man with the gun, the American
soldier, the best in the world. He
won the war. The preparedness that
was the slogan of the Democratic
campaign textbook was paper pre-
paredness only"
