LA FOLI.ETTE, DEMAGOGUE.
TN HIS opposition to this. Uritisli debt payment pliin, Senator La
M. Follctto played tile part of mi unscriipiiloim demagogue.
Miy not pay the poor .Sunerjcau farmer these billions instead of
Knglarid, how much of th money will )mi spent to keep tho Irish
people in bondage, etc, etcf
Senator La Folletto knows better tliiin that. lie knows that the
payment of the Uritish dit Jias nothing to do with a payment to tho
American farmer, he knors that if thu Irish people aro in hot water
today it is not the fault oil' iireat Britain.
But he takes advantage! of the, general rural umst in this country,
and the perpetual Irish agitation to twist tho lion's tail, and appeal
to unthinking prejudice ami' ignorance lor his own political benefit.
Foreign countries now;ve the United States nearly twelve bil-
Jions of, dollars. Of this aUoiint Great Britain owes !M,746.8(i2,fU0,
Franco owes nearly $4,000,(10,00, Italy nearly two billion, Belgium
nearly half a1 billion, Finland' nine million, Greece over 15 million, Po
land over 150 million, Russiit ovef 2(W million.
Of all tlit'se countries, Great Britain alone has even suggested
payment. Great Brirtiin ahjne has adopted a business like program
to balance her budget. Great: Britain alone has reduced her army, cur
tailed expenditures on her' navy, and imposed a tax on her own
people commensurate with lier obligations, the heaviest individual
tax of any world power.
When Great Britain has done this, and also agreed to America's
terms, when she single haitded has taken the lend in Europe to rc
tnrn the world to something like financial normulcy, the least an
American statesman could (Ho would be either to accept tho offer with
American statesman could' do. would be to accept the offer with
thanks. .
But La Follette, scorning tho rule of statesman, proceeds to adopt
the role of politician and stirs up the animals with an anti-British
harangue, that is not only unnecessary and dangerous at this lime,
but is absolutely false in all its implications. .
We agree with "Hell Maria" Dawes. -The greatest danger to
this country today, lies'in the demagogue in congress.

The perfectly broiled steak or chop-crisply
brown from without.juicily tender from within
no longer depends on the specialized skill of a
cook or on good luck in the cooking-where
there's an electric range in the home.
In this locality the experience of hundreds of
our range customers has been that the electric
range improves the savoriness and flavor of all
cooking. The many ways it eases the kitchen
routine and saves fuss and muss have long been
recognized. But to most people the economy
of it comes as a distinct surprise!
The average bill for cooking and light
ing together is often as low as the cost of
other kinds of fuel alone.
Ask about the special rate for cooking and
lighting at our office. See the electric ranges
today at your dealer's. You can get one on
easy payments to be installed immediately. '
