FAILS TO MAKE GOOD, SAYS CHAIRMAN HULL predicts a Nationwide Democratic Victory in Opening Colorado Campaign at Denver. Denver, April 9. Cordell Hull of Chattanooga, Tenn , chairman of the democratic national committee, launched the 1922 democratic cam paign in Colorado in a speech at the Jefferson day banquet of the Jane Jefferson club last night, lie tlayed the Harding administration, charged the republicans with failure to make good on campaign pledgas ard pre dicted a democratic victory next No vember in every state and in nation al politics in 1924. Republican expenditures and tax ation were keys upon which Mr. Hull played repeatedly. "The country is badly out of joint politically, economically, socially and morally," he said. Pointing out that the war left the public mind confused aud bewildered Mr. Hull said that in order to bring the nation back to normal conditions it was all-important that eaci polit ical party co-operate unselfishly in the task of restoring an educated and sound public opinion. "Far from pursuing this course," he said, "but taking the direct oppo site, reactionary republican leaders, in their selfish greed for power, as early a 1918 formed a conspiracy to further demoralize public thought and debauch the public mind as the only means of discrediting the dem ocratic administration and regaining control of government. "The present day republican party bears no resemblance to the republi can partv of Lincoln. Grant and Gar field," Mr. Hull asserted, "and be sides is bankrupt In leaders, in prin ciples and in morals. Since the No vember lecetion of 1920 the Ameri can people have suffered industrial pani3 losses of more than ? 40,000. 000 Josses greater than those of all other panics combined. As witnesses I call the millions of idle laborers. of impoverished farmers and of ha- rassed business men In every part of the country to offer olemn testimony to these outstanding facts." Mr. Hull said the republicans have failed to create adequate reconstruc tion legislation and blamed them for filibustering from March 4, 1919, to 1921 to defeat democratic admini rtration bills and force an extra ses sion or congress. - HAS TONSILS REMOVED From Wednesday Dally.

EDMUNDS, MANAGER Murray, Nebraska a .oaa to tarry j A certain SO acres, but in reality one acre short, making just 79 acres,' not far from this town, and having nothing in the way of improvements thereon, and also having some fif teen acres which cannot be cultivat-: ed, which leaves 64 acres, on which the taxes this year is $267.00, which makes $4.15 per acre, and is more than can be realized by renting the same for two-fifths of the crop. No wonder the farmer is complaining that the burden of caring for the government is unequally borne. This matter of excessive taxes should be looked after by the voter when the time comes for the ejection of the state legislature, and see that the men for whom you cast your vote are In line for a lower rate of taxation. land that the appropriations and ex penditures authorized by the legis lature are lowered, and the money wrung from the public through bur densome taxation is more economic ally expended.
