FAKE LEGISLATION AND GRAFT
measures are the present means
of fooling1 the the people. It is
a popular custom to place before
the Voters a measure so skillful
ly, sugar coated, that the rea
meaning is lost among a jumble
of words. There ;s a good many
such measures on the ballot for
the coming election, unless you
thoroughly understand a meas
ure, vote an emphatic "NO'- we
have enough of "wild cat" legis
lation now. without adding more.
DID YOU EVER FIGURE THAT IF
the financial world, said, there
will be no war that it would be
an impossibility for nations to
slaughter each other. Figuring
backwards then, we can readily
. see that capital must gain by na
war is a tool of capital and capi:
tal is a necessity to war, the on
ly fellow not benefiting being the
poor dub who carries the rifle, as
Sherman once remarked, "War
is h- arid we must admit the
wiseness-of this exclamation
when applied to the comnon
horde who do the fighting.

Where Paint
Value Counts
THE difference between good
paint and cheap paint is the dif
ference between a suit of clothes made by
a crack tailor and one made by a bungler.
The cheap cuit looks all right for a
short time but it hasn't staying qualities.
The good suit holds its shape and
color in spite of wear.

closer at the man than at the

SUNDAY MORNING ALL CHRIS-
tian people in the United States,
which will include practically all
of the eighty million inhabitants
will unite in an hour of prayer
to the great ruler of all destinies
for peace in blood soaked Europe
A great nation looking on with
heart felt sympathy at a suffer
ing world, longing to bind up it's
wounds. Surely it's cry will not
be in vain.

THE POLITICAL POT HAS DE-
gan to simmer though as yet has
not reached the boiling point.
The NEWS in a true independT
ent spirit is not taking political
sides but where we find a man,
we will likely mention the fact.
Real men in politics are hard to
find hut we are glad, to say. there
s a few of them.
THOSE WHO DQ NOT WANT
"Law Enforcement" will hardly
support Chas. J. Smith and will
likely rid;cule him but those who
really want laws enforced instead
of ignored, and we believe they
are the majority, will certainly
support C. J. Smith.
