GOVERNMENT BY FRAUD

Senator Harding said in his Des
Moines speech. in discussing the
League of Nations:
I do not wish to clarity those obli-
cations. want to turn my back on
them. 1t is not Interpretation but re-
lection that l am seeking.
Mr.. Root said in his Carnegie Hall
speech:
1t is plain, therefore, that the issue
is not between a League of Nations
and no League of Nations. The ques-
ton is whether the agreement shall
be accepted absolutely unchanged or
shall be modified to meet the Ameri-
can objections.
Senator Hiram Johnson said in his
Hoboken speech:
There is nothing ambiguous or I'M
certain in our candidates declaration.
He has courageously taken his stand.
He has put the League behind him.
He wants neither Interpretation nor
reservation. but outright rejection.
Mr. Taft said in his Bloomington
speech:
Exnressions that Mr. Harding has
"scranpedv the League, has "repudi-
ated" it. are grossly unfair express
sions.
Senator Borah said in his nanbury
speech:
But association or League, it's just
the same to me- am opposed to any
association, combination, society or
League of Nations.
Senator Harding said in statement
issued at Marion:

said in his public address. He will

HARDING ON ROOSEVELT

A portion of the Democratic press,
during the lifetime of President
Roosevelt, were moved to say some
very harsh things concerning him per
sonally and concerning his policies.
but they never said anything more
severe than what Senator Harding
said concerning him repeatedly in his
newspaper, the Marion (O) Star.
The following extract taken from
the Senator's paper is reprinted from
the Democratic campaign book:
1.-The entire Roosevelt campaign is
based on selfishness, false pretenses,
Ienvy and spite. 1t is concentration
Iof all the forces of failure and discon-
tent, of indicted money-kings and dis
credited political bosses. They rallied
about the personality of the most self
seeking politician this country has
ever known; the most arbitrary boss
the party has ever suffered under: the
most dangerous agitator who has ever
threatened the perpetuity of govern
ment. From Senator Harding's
newspaper, The Marion (Ohio) Star

volatile and unstable ignoramuses who
want a change of government and do
not care what happens afterwards,
whether it be dishonor or disaster or

The brush was followed by Captain Gonzales riding with his command to Alamo and charging the Americans there with supporting the ''insurrectos'' accord ing to Church.
 The American men were crowded into a wagon, Church said. with the exception of himself. who was throwr into a cabin with Mrs. Foster who had pleaded for her husbands life The witness declared the other mer were taken only a short distance from Alamo and shot.

ARREST |. W. W. AG|TATOR l \ STREET OF
 B|SbEE:
Radical Di stributes Lurid Pamphlets and Carries
 Recruiting Outfit

An organizer for the I. w. w. giv- ing the name of John Graham was arrested on the streets last night by Patrolman Hagsard as he was in the act of soliciting individuals to take out membership in the organization. The man freely admitted that he was an organizer for the I. w. w and said that he had been here about three weeks. Records in his posses sion show that in that time he issued credentials to two persons only. ack- nowledgment of the receipt of ere dentials being found in his effects.
 In view of the fact that County At torney French is reported to have said recently in the court at Tomb stone that any I. w. W.s in the coun- ty would better get out and that he would see to it that they do get out and that they will not be allowed to come in. it IS thought that the coun- ty attorneys office may take a hand in this case.
 The arrest of Graham was brought about through his distributing on the streets handbills entitled "The Crime of Centralia.' man to whom he had given one of the pamphlets point ed him out to PatrOlman Haggard, who took him over the police station to investigate the matter further. A complete outfit of literature, applica- ton blanks, stamps and cards was found in his possession.
 Graham denied that he was a paid organizer but said that he took in new members whenever Ee could per suade men to join. He said that he has no home and came here from Phoenix He denied that he had met with any success in Bisbee and said that he had taken in no new mem bers here.
 The man was held last night under the city ordinance which prohibits the distribution of handbills on the streets without obtaining a permit from the city council.
