McCombs, former chairman of the democratic national committee, in an interview opposing the league of nations covenant, says: "They tell us that America has pledged its word to Europe and that this word must be redeemed in the priK-ess of a national campaign. In my belief. America has pledged It slf to nothing. One individual, speaking as such, permitted Kurope I LOTH KS are made to wear and -not to throw away.

Goods Called for and Delivered PHONE Ibb to believe that he spoke for America. But he had no authority to speak for a nation, for in the last analysis he was nothing but a self-appointed emissary. " This statement is untruthful in its essence and wholly misleading. It is refuted by the constitution of the United States and by the plain and undisputed facts of history. It is worthy of attention because it epito mizes a false doctrine that opponents of the league in both parties are preaching everywhere with a view deliberately to deceiving the people. To say that the president "had. no authority .to speak for the nation" because he was ''nothing but a self appointed emissary", is drivelling nonsense. His authority to speak for the na tion was given him by the people of the United States themselves when they elected him president and vested him with the powers of the chief ex ecutive under the constitution. When the nation was swept into the mael strom of world war Woodrow Wilson, under the constitution, was not only the duly elected president; he was commander-in-chief of the army and navy and was vested with the power to make treaties, "by and with the advice and consent of the senate", and to appoint ambassadors and peace commissioners. There is but one man in war who can speak for the nation, and that man is the president. . When President Wilson, during the progress of the war, at the time of the armistice, and when the peace treaty was framing, spoke for a league of nations, and spoke for a joint use by the members of their economic and military power again. t any nation that shiiuld launch arj a.? gressive war without first submitting its cause for consideration and in quiry, he spoke not only "with the advice and consent of the senate" but of the whole congress and the entire American people. This plan of world organization for peace had been urged, before it was ever invoked by tht president, by Theodore Roosevelt, by William II. Taft, by Elihu Root, by Henry Cabot Iodge, and by other eminent repub lican leaders. When Mr. Wilson proclaimed it us president as one of the objects for which America fought, not a voice was raised in opposition or protest in.either house of congress, or by any representative leader of either party. When he included it in. the terms of the armistice it was accepted by the common acclaim c.f congress, and the people. ' When Germany accepted the armis tice on taht condition there was still no voice raised in America against it. If congress was opposed to this plan, if the senate was opposed, if the republican party was opposed, if the people were opposed, the time to make opposition known, and active, was during the eriod of its formula tion and acceptance. There was no such opposition. During the year and a half that elapsed between the president's an nouncement of "the heart of the league" plan and the submission of the treaty to the senate, no repub lican senator found anything to com plain of. Neither did any democratic senator. When the first draft of the treaty was submittrd to Elihu Root he found no fault with Article v, nor did Chairman Hay. When the plan of Mr. Tafts "League to En force Peace", providing for the or ganized protection of the political and territorial integrity of all na tions, was submited, ip 191 fi, to the 350.000 members of the National Chamber of Commerce, 96 per cent of them responded favorably. The churches, organized labor, organized agriculture, the colleges, were equal ly on record as favorable: If ever there was a time when it could be said, on the basis of. undis puted evidence, that the heart and will of the United States were voiced by the president, that time was when President Wilson spoke for organized peace and went to Paris to fight for it President Wilson spoke the will of the people. He fought for it. He carried it out. He won for it a splendid victory. . And it was only after the victory tras Ts-on. after the league to preserve peace v-as agreed to by the oth?r nations, after its establishment was begun, that the voice of opposition, partisan and personal, began to make itself heard. Every other nation in Europe was entitled to believe and did believe, because of the unanimous support given the president throughout the period leading up to the peace con ference, that the whole United States was back of Woodrow Wilson in liis efforts to establish the leagu? of na tions voice, his pledge its pledge. These are the facts. And these facts make the issue very plain. It is whether the United States shall keep faith or break faith. World Herald. :o: AN INCREDIBLE NOMINATION The Palmer boomers are descend ing on San Francisco, it is reported, with a claim to 500 votes for their candidate on the first ballot.: The reason that they may even do better, since with McAdoo out. Palmer is the only administration candidate left. And is not a president in office able always to nominate his successor? The republican party has usually been r.ble to rely upon the democrats for able n ;istance in electing its can didates. When tlu republicans make bad breaks, the democrats generally manage to so them one or two bet ter. The nomination of the attorney general by the democrats would be really better luck, however, than the republican party cr any opposing party has a right to expect. One cannot believe that the Palmer irrSn. backed even as they are by the big Pennsylvania delegation, can reall hope for the nomination of the most vibrant false alarm which has been set a-going in American politics in the last half dozen years. If the democrats are to win this year it will have to be by virtue ot tlements estranged at Chicago. Tht most important of these element.' probably will be organized labor. The democrats cannot win without a large preponderance of the labor vote. Palmer's injunction proceed ing in the teal strike last winter lost him friends everywhere because of its futility, but it made labor love him as men love snakej. On this ac count, tie nomination of Palmei would be a great boost for the com ing third party. But it would amount to the ebandonment of the campaign by the democrats. If the democrats are to win thev must also convin.-c the country that they can and will do-more to ease the. price situation than the republi cans can cr will do. Mr. Palmer ha; been the- administration's champion of lower prices for the la.-t bitter year. lie has talked very much about reducing prices. And all the time prices have soared. The price of su gar has nearly trebled right under Mr. Palmer's nose. Glorious candi date he would be on an anti-profiteering platform. N Perhaps the most vital need of the country now is respect tor law. Pal mer stands convicted by theevidencc of a dozen of the most noted lawyers cf the country as the promoter of on? of the most lawless series cf official acts this country ha ever seen. The fact that his acts were .in these cases directed against weak and ignorant and in some cases vicious men but makes them the more contemptible. And where should we be with such a man in the white house? Fortunately, he would never get within a thousand miles of the white house. If the democratic convention cannot s?e that, happy the republi can candidates. State Journal. Betters Living Conditions! Delco-Light helps keep children on the farm.

IP mm-m mm- "I could tell you in a few words what I think of Tahlac, but I can never get through praising it for what it has done for me," said J. O. Lauder, 1427 Dean avenue, Ues Moines, Iowa, a few days ago. Mr. Lauder has been a telegraph operator for more tha'u twenty years and is. now night operator for" the C R. I. & P. railroad. Rock Island sta tion, Des Moines. "I have been taking medicines for ten years," added Mr. Lauder, try ing to get rid of a case of stomach trouble. Years ago I realized I was playing a losing game, for I kept get ting worse but did not know what o do to help myself. Until Tanlac 'ixed my stomach up here recently I hadn't enjoyed a good meal in years. had become so nervous and irri 'able that 1 had to guard myself to cep the ordinary things of life from getting me all upset and unstrung. I managed to keep at work most of 'he time, but was very much wor ried as I f.lt that I was right on he verge of a nervous breakdown. My sleep did not rest me and work lad become a burden to me. "A few months ago my wife and I went on a visit down in Missouri ind found her sister so improved hat we hardly knew her on first ;i.aht. She told us Tanlac did it, so ;i our return I got a bottle and, af ef taking two doses I began to feel tetter. I am feeling like a man made lew.
