The cost Of a New Constitution will
run into many thousands of dollars.
That it is an unnecessary expenditure
goes for nothing. The chief purpose
of the common citizen these rip'roar-
ing times is to pay taxes, and only the
u~nreasoning crouch objects to it.

A ooMMENDABLE act by the Repub-
lican State Senate was the turning
down of McCsuley. The sooner the
Democratic Committee of the county
of Jasper follow suit, the better. The
Kelley Pooles and the McCauleys are
not desirable assets to the Democratic
party of Missouri.

DR.. H. L. BowLBY says, "The Lords
Day Alliance will seek the enactment
OF laws calling for the strict enforce
ment of the Christian Sabbath in the
legislatures of at least thirty-five
States" He continued his enumera-
ton OF a long list of things they we're
going to prohibit on Sunday and
wound up by saying, according to the
Washington Star: "We would have
more of the spirit of the Puritans in
our observance of the Lords day.
The moral tone of the nation is Slip
ping backward steadily, and the peo-
pie must return to spiritual things.'
This shows clearly that the Lords
Day Alliance is seeking to make peo-
pie spiritual and religious under
duress of civil law. But all that re-
ligious legislation and a state religion
has ever done for the individual in
past ages was to make a hypocrite
out of him, instead of a Christian.
No mai has ever been made spiritual
by human laws. 1t is not by civil
power but by the Spirit of God that
men are made Christians.

In these days when so many church
leaders are flying to statutory prohi-
bition for the cure Of ills which beset
the moral being Of humanity, it is en-

HARDING wants an Association of
Nations for the betterment of the
world and his s%ycophantic following
are lining up behind him. They airs
the same fellows who denounced the
League of Nations whose purposes are
the same as those now sought to be
grated on the world body polite. The
Lodges, the Borahs, the Johnsons, and
their following, then blatant in their
opposition to the League with Wilson
as President, are now complacently in
favor OF the Association. All their
fear of "entangling alliancesn are set
aside and they are ready to enter into
close alliance with Great Britain,
France and Japan, for in that way,
only, can disarmament become an
accomplished fact. The League of
Nations would have secured disarma-
ment with less %entangling than the
"Associationo carries fin it's train. II
the League had been promptly adopt
id ..by the United States the world
would be at peace to-day. Lincoln
said you may fool all the people a part
Of the time and a part Of the people
all the time, but you can't fool all the
people all of the time; SO, if the Amer
lean people, under the teachings of
partisan demagogues last year, writ
themselves down as the fooled, yet
there remains hope in the future.

SEES NORMAL PRICE
LEVEL IN SIX MONTHS
Dean Johnson DrGws Conclu-
sion From Gold Figures.

Within six months prices viii reach
n normal level" and upon reaching it
will hold that level for the next four or
five years, in tho opinion Of DR.. Joseph
French Johnson. dean Of the New York
University School of Commerce, Ac-
counts and Finance. That level. he said,
Will be about that of the early part OF
1917. -'.
DR.. Johnson said he came TO that con-
ciusion by studying the gold figures
which show practically tho same amount
OF gold in the country now as three
years ago. Dr. Johnson predicted that
there would be few business failures in
the next six months.
One OF the causes for the rise in
prices after the arlnistice was the use
of Liberty bonds as currency for the
purchase Of Injuries, said the Dean. $50
many used their bonds to buy automo-
biles, furs, jewelry and other Injuries
that a false standard of living was cre-
ated which now is tuinbling," he said.
DR.. johnson said personally he would
be willing to burn all his bonds because
they represented a liability which was
shared by. all ana had been rnisused.
