Selling Federal Jobs is G1,a, a.s.e
G. o. P. Committeeman,


Charges that Joseph W. Tolbert,
Republican National Committee man
for South Carolina and chairman of
the Republican State Committee there
has peddled Federal patronage for
his own profit have been laid before
subcommittee of the Senate Judiciary
Committee by Senator Nathaniel B.
Dial dem. S. o. An affidavit made
by one of Tolbert's former followers
alleges that the Republican National
committeeman, who was also "ref-
cree" in the distribution of Federal
jobs there, expressed the hope that
he would realize $1OO, in this traf-
ticking.
Tolbert has been appointed by
President Harding to be United States
marshal for the Western District of
South Carolina, and Senator Dial is
opposing his confirmation by the
Senate. 1t was in this connection
that Senator Dial filed the allegations
OF Tolbert's wrong doing with the
Senate subcommittee.
In presenting the case to the Senate
for investigation, Senator Dial said:
Il am informed that the referee in
our State (Tolbert) sold patronage
and that the universal charge was
one-half of the first years salary, and
it is now claimed and generally be-
lieved that this practice is in vogue.
The proof presented to me is unques-
tionable on the subjectand convincing
beyond the peradventure of doubt.n
1t is alleged that the sums collected
from applicants for Federal positions
ranged from $500 to $4,000. One of
: Tolbert's "referees" was recently re-
jected by the Senate because he sought
to compel woman postmaster to pay
him $500 to bring about her confirma-
ton, Senator Dial said.
More than year ago Senator Nc
Kellar (Dem., Tenn.), pressed for an
inquiry into charges that John w.
Overall, Republican National Commit
teeman for Tennessee, had received
$40 from an applicant for appointment
as postmaster, and that friends of
Overall were soliciting from other
would-be appointees contributions to
pay his expenses on trip to Wash
ington. The Republican Senate has
failed to take any action on Senator
McKellar's resolution for an inquiry.
These instances of alleged Repub-
lican huckstering in Federal patron
age remind the people of the unfit ap-
pointments which have already been
made or sought to be made by the
Republican istration-Ambassa
dor Harvey, Attorney General Daugh-
erty, E. Mont Kelley, Governor of
Porto Rico. and four of Senator New
berry's henchmen who were indicted
in connection with his primary cam
paign in Michigan. Nat Goldstein,
who took $1,000 of Governor Lowden's
campaign fund while candidate for
delegate to the last Republican ma
tional convention, was nominated for
st. Louis Internal Revenue Collector,
but was forced to withdraw, although
praised by President Harding and
Senator Spencer (Rep., MOI, who
led the fight in the Senate to seat
Newberry.

FREE SPEECH

Some people have felt aggrieved be-
cause as they claim free speech is de-
NED in this country. They protested
when certain persons were Jailed dur
/. ing the war for violation of the es-
pionage law, and because small
number of these offenders are still in
prison.
The conscription act developed a
class OF men who advised their
friends and followers to refuse to
serve in rne army The government
either had to shut them up while the
war lasted or suffer loss in fighting
power.
The man who refuses to obey the
laws and who advises others to ig-
more them is public peril. There
may OF course be some exceptional
case where the laws do great injustice
IN which conscientious people feel like
opposing enforcement Of such stat
utes. But people who thus set them
selves against their fellow country
men take terrible responsibility.
Their refusal to conform encourages
many to rebel for baser reasons.
Democratic government is built on the
give up some thing of their individual
rights and convictions.
If the government sought to Jail all
those who set at nought some law,
and counsel Others to disregard it, it
would be in difficulty, particularly
since the Volstead act passed. 1t is
possible to take the vaporings of
radical extremists too seriously.
Sometimes miscrievous propaganda
is promoted by trying to suppress the
people who utter it.
When war terminates, the need
for sharp repression of opposition to
the government is much less urgent.
Those who directly counsel overturn-
ing the government by force will
have to be taught lesson. But the
common sense of the people disposes
Of many foolish notions without dras-
tic action, and it is often advisable to
allow people rope enough to hang
themselves with.

TOTAL VALUE OF CROPS
IN 1922 LARGER THAN IN 1921

Due to substantial increases in the
prices of small grains and corn since
harvest time and the comparatively
high Prices of hay resulting from
continued drought in several western
states, the total value of all crops
produced in Colorado this year. at
prices prevailing on December l, is
somewhat greater than the value of
1921 crops on the same date last year.
Indications are, however. that farm
ers have not realized so much this
year from crops actually marketed as
they did in 1921 and most of the crops
remaining to be marketed are bring
ing low prices.
The price of wheat and other small
grains was about the same at market
time this year as last, but the price
has advanced materially since that
time. Reports Indicate, however, that
more than 80 per cent of the wheat
crop was marketed before the price
advance began and a considerable
amount OF the grain remaining will
be retained for local use. The price
of corn has been good since market
time, but the amount of Colorado corn
actually marketed as grain is not
large, most of it beng consumed as
feed on the farms. The price of hay
mas also been higher all season than it
was last year, but the hay crop was
cut short by drought and the amount
of hay available for market this year
was below the average.
