We again renew our allegiance to

the fathers, "Equal Rights to ALL

justi6able pride we call attention to
the constructive legislation Of the late
National Democratic Administration,
and its forward and humanitarian eff
forts to- bring the world into peace
and happy understanding; and which
efforts were frustrated by q partisan
republican senate. We are pleased al
so to call attention to the distinguished
services rendered the State of Mime
sofa by such men as John Lind, John A.
johnson and Winfield Scott Hammond
as its governors. We do not have to
arraign the present national admins
tration or state administration fol
their Short comings. They are patent
and we note that no one attempted to
defend either of them in the late Re
publican county convention held on the
18th. instant. In this point its reso
lutions are as silent as the grave. We
realize that the agricultural interests
Of the United States are paramount
and that they have suffered more than
any other, during the past year and we
favor such legislation either by Con
stitutional Amendment or Congression
al Action as will give relief; specially
to favor the passage Of laws as viii
permit the extention of rural credit.
We favor construction of the Great
Lakes and st. Lawrence Deep Water
Way project and urge upon Congress
it's speedy consideration. We are
mindful of our soldiers, sailors anc
marines and their patriotic devotion
and we favor such legislation as WI
meet the approval Of the American LIE

I'VE recognize the fact that tax ex
empt securities are a menace and
hindrance to legitimate business. Tax
exempt securities are the special de-
light of the idle rich, for "they toi
:n9t; neither do they spin.' Over six
teeeHn billion dollars Of tax exempt Sc
cniiities, most of which are in the
vaults, thus taking from active bust
ness a large amount Of working CAPT
tol. I'VE favor the passage of such
laws either by constitutional amend
ment' or otherwise, if possible, as viii
remedy this evil. We oppose the ship
subsidy bill now before Congress enc
sponsored by President Harding. We
believe it to be a sop to the shipping
interests, and against the interest o1
the people as whole. It is only /;
specie Of graft. - -. >. =
We oppose the expenditure Of large
sums Of money in seeking public of
fee. It's continuance is menace tc
free government, for it puts publ,
office on the auction block to be struck
of to the. highest bidder. As wa.
