HARDING AND THE LEAGUE.
If a further statement of his position on the
League of Nations issue had been required, Sen
ator Harding fairly met the demand in hit ad
dress at Des Moines on Thursday. His utter
ance there will present considerable difficulty
to the proponents the Wilson policy, for it
will not be an easy matter to twisFor distort it,
or to obscure its plain meaning.
While Goveror Cox, at Newton, Kan., de
clared that he and not Woodrow Wilson is run
ning for president, the fact is that Mr. Cox's
campaign rests on an issue of Mr. Wttson's
choosing; that he has persistently posed as a
Champion of the president's policies, and that
he publicly declared he would, redeem every
promise or pledge the president has made. Under
these circumstances it is impossible to differen
tiate between Cox and Wilson,, who must be
considered as-""bne, especially when the League
of Nations is under discussion. It is the hand
of Esau but the voice of Jacob, and the voters
should understand that clearly and make no mis
take. ? On this point Senator Harding is emphatic.
He could not nake his position any plainer
than he has in these words:
t l flt nnr wan, anv rtn trt ti fnic ri ..till
have no man's vote upon a misunderstanding
and I am equally determined, if I can prevent
it, that my opponent shall have no man's vote
'upon a misunderstanding. My position, I
think, has been made perfectly plain, but
'whether it has or not, his position is beyond
cavil, and it is that we shall go into the Paris
league without modification or substantial
qualification. To such a betrayal of my coun
trymen I will never consent ; ... t, ' i
? As to the "scrapping" of the"ireaty that was
done by Woodrow Wilson, who stubbornly in
sisted on having his own way or nothing. He
said at the start that'he had tied the covenant
so closely into the treaty that the two must go
together, and then he undertook to "force the
senate to accept his views, in face of the sound
judgment of the majority. Twenty-three demo
cratic senators voted against the president, and
. seme of them, Senator Thomas of Colorado, for
example, took the same stand jas did Senator
Borah. Opposition to, the Wilson league does
not come exclusively from the republican group
in the senate, as the democrats would have you
think. . ... ..
As to the future of the general plan, Senator
Harding is equally explicit. He points out the
splendid situation of the United States in. its
disinterested relation to the problems of the
world, and says:
Because of this, the world is ready t6 '
recognize our moral leadership. Because we
arc not vitally concerned in the conflicting in
terests of Europe, because we are independent,
because we are able to approach the solution
of the questions which continually threaten the
peace of Europe as an unprejudiced umpire
rather .than as an interested party, the world
will be glad to have us formulate tha, plan and
point the way. . . . To formulate a plan of
international co-operation is a task of no small -difficulty.
. . .1 shall not risk embar
rassing the final . solution of a problem so
momentous by undertaking to lay down in ad
vance specific details or plans
The republican iarty does not propose to
close the door of hope to humanity. Its plat-'
form says:
The republican party stands for agreement
among the nations to preserve the peace of the
world. -Senator
Harding is the candidate of that
party,, obligated morally by every promise con
tained in the platform. As an honest "man, a
sincere patriot, a warm-hearted sympathizer
with the world, "for America first, yet not in
different to the call from humanity wherever
help is needed, Warren G.. Harding is presented
to the voters by his party in full confidence that
his election will end the confusion, do away with
the disorder, and aid materially in settling prob
lems that now vex, closing wounds that now
Kape, and healing sores that now fester. .
, i ' ; )
From Romance to Reality.
Romance was one perpetual joy ride for
C. N. Williamson, the English novelist, whose
death has just been announce!. Back in the
days when motor cars were more the toys of
the wealthy than the convenience ofjlxe public,
with his wife, MrT Williamson wrote "The
Lightning Conductor," which ranked among the
best sellers of the time.
Later appeared "My Friend, the Chauffeur,"
and then, as indicating the rise of women driv
.,. Tr,f. fntnr Maid If it can be said that
the automobile played a leading role in all these
novels, it may also be asserted that the novels
themselves played their part in popularizing
motoring. Time and customs change, and from
the luxury of a Williamson plot the motor car
became a modern necessity, shorn of all legiti
mate romance and becoming a commonplace
' .
convenience.
f, - - Subduing the Home Fires.
According to figures p'resented by vthe Out
look, every day in the last year 889 American
homes went up in flames, and the . majority of
lives lost are in these home fires. Fifteen thou
sand men, women and children die each year
from conflagrations here, and more than $250,
000,000 in buildings, foodstuffs and. other materi
als are destroyed annually. Ninety "per cent of
all fires in this nation are said to be preventable,
and national carelessness is indicated by the
fact that fire losses in America are 10 times as
large per person as to European countries.
r ' October!0, Saturday ef this week, has b?en
Jerignated igain as Firs Prevention, day. Fire
prevention must be added to the duties of good
housekeeping. Collections of rubbish, old papers,
boxes and the like in basements and attics must
be thought of as perils. With the furnace fires
soon to be lit, danger of hot ashes among the
trash becomes immediate. Gasoline used for
cleaning, leaky gas pipes and dirty chimneys are
other hazards. Now is a good time to think
of these things, for there are certain kinds of
home fires that the song did not urge.
Down in Old Missouri
All is not happy in Nebraska's southeastern
neighbor. There the party which now hails
James Middleton Cox (batting. for Woodrow
Wilson) as its hope is more or less in the dumps
over the prospect that the voters will not only
prefer Warren G. .Harding for president, but
will also return Selden P. Spencer to the senate
of the United States. Indeed, the prospect for
such an outcome 'has almost passed beyond the
condition of chance and become a certainty.
Recently, in one of his addresses to the
voters, Senator Spencer charged that the presi
dent had promised to send American troops to
Roumania and Serbia, under the League of Na
tions contract. A denial of this statement was
sent out from the White House, with a demand
that Senator Spencer retract. Spencer ap
pealed to Senator Reed, his democratic col
league from Missouri, and the latter sub
stantiates the charge made by Senator Spencer.
Senator Reed says the statement complained of
was made by the president in an address at the
Paris Peace conference on May 31, 1919, but
did not get by the censor until December 3,
1919. In the Congressional Record of Decem
ber 4, 1919, the address is published in full. Mr.
Wilson, addressing himself to the representa
tives of Serbia and Roumania, said:
. If the world should be troubled again, if
"the conditions which we all regard as funda
mental are challenged, the guaranties which
will be given to you will 'pledge that the
United States will send its army and fleet
across the ocean.
No challenge of this s made from the
White House when it was first published in the
Washington Star, nor when it was copied' into
the Congressional Record. It is passing strange
that Secretary Tumulty should get excited over
it and demand a retraction at this late day, and
from a man who was simply quoting the unques
tioned record of the facts.
The situation in Missouri is not going to help
the democrats in any part of the country.
A Million Strong From Europe.
A million immigrants from Europe may come
to the United States before the year is out. This
is the estimate of those who have been watching
the flood of refugees coming by every steamship
to Ellis Island.
The recent arrival of two families of Polish
Jews in Omaha illustrates the reason or this
new pilgrimage Something like two dozen wars
are being waged in the old world today. The
experiences of these two families, harried first
by the Russian armies and then by the Poles, is
being repeated in millions of instances. The
tales they bring of young men forced first to
dig their own graves and then being buried alive
by their conquerors are not unbelievable. Star
vation" and want, although slower to wreak their
deadly result, are no less cruel and much more
prevalent in all these small nations
The reunion of a family whose husband and
father has been for some years in America, sav
ing enough money to bring them to him, is a
thing in whici all who revere family ties will
rejoice, in tne cases ot many other newcomers,
however, the advantage of their coming, to
themselves or to our own land, is problematical.
Some day, somehow, the disputes that rage
throughout most pf the nations of Europe, and
with particular violence in the south and" eastern
portifcns, must be settled. Running away from
those problems is not the way to solve them.
Although this year's immigration will be sev
eral hundred thousand short of the pre-war
records, even though it may bring a million new
comers, it will present something approaching
the proportions of an emergency to the United
States. Probably the majority of these im
migrants were farmers in the old world, but it
has not been made easy for them to follow this
pursuit' her,c. The cities, already congested, will
become more crowded. A surplus of labor in in
dustry is possible.
The opportunity to acquire much fine ma
terial for American citizenship is open, but care
and foresight must be exercised to make citizen
ship worth while both for the nation and the
new resident. ,
Penalties of Prosperity.
Prosperity has struck the natives of the Gold
coast, in West Africa, from the fact that cocoa
went up -after the war from $50 a ton to $300.
A hundred native shippers are said to be roll
ing in wealth, and even negro women have set
up as brokers. The Africans are moving from
the country to the towns, buying automobiles
and living high. In what way the condition of
their brothers who stay in the country and
gather the pods from the trees has improved
is not indicated by the message. However, it
is clear that history is repeating, and the large
profits are going to these black speculators.
Of course, if they had not gone into the busi
ness of handling the product, some one else
would, and the get-rich-quick craze would have
gone on just the same.
There is always danger at such times of too
many being withdrawn from the business of
production into the mere function of handling
the goods.. The drift from the farms of Ameri
ca is nothing less than a world-wide tendency.
The period of speculation through which we
have just passed was ended by the banks re
fusing to lend money for speculative ventures,
and has resulted in enlarged production and
reasonable prices. Putting a premium on pro
duction and giving less opportunity to hoarding
and speculation works for a return to that nor
malcy of which Senator; Harding has spoken.
Any time the school board feels-like selling,
it will have little trouble in getting $41,000 for
the Central High school block.
Fireproof airplanes are promised. The "boat"
should also be made fool-proof, if it is oing
to come into general use.
Forty barrels of whisky in a democratic na
tional convention is a little enough matter to
make a fuss about,

ought to, be made safe in ashort time.

AGAIN it is a pleasure to agree with Mr.
Wilson. "Every one who sincerely believes in
government by the people must reejoice at the
turn affairs have taken in regard to this cam
paign." Every one, indeed. For Republicans
may rejoice as well as Democrats. (-

HOW TO AVOID ASTHMA.
This is a suppositious case. A
man has what he calls asthma, al
though it acts very much like hay
fever. However, his attacks come
on at all seasons of the year, and
that rules out ordinary hay fever.
Ho has been examined and found to
he freo from heart disease . and
Irlghfs disease. His attacks come
on suddenly and violently, aiai he is
at a loss to know what causes them.
This is no unusual case. So far
from being a rare bird there are
tens of thousands of just such cases.
A recent number of the Journal
cf the American Medical association
had two articles detailing the trou
bles of Just such cases, one report
being from Dr. Walker of Boston
and the other from Dr. Gottlieb of
New York.
Dr. Walker reports two" cases
caused by feathers. One got well
whence quit sleeping with a feather
pillow under his head. Another got
better when he discarded his pll
low, but did not completely recover
until he disposed of a parrot.
Dr. Gottlieb had two cases of
asthma which were due to sleeping
on chicken feathers and two idue to
goose feathers. Such persons should
avoid sleeping on feather pillows
and mattresses and should keep
r.way from chickens and other
feathered animals.
Walker says wearing furs causes
some cases of hay fever like asthma.
Walker refers to cases due to in
haling dandruff and hair from rab
bits and guinea pigs. Association
with horses he places high-in the
sjale of causes. He reports 10
cases which were proved to be due
to horse dandruff. -
Gottlieb reports two such cases.
Walker reports two cases due to as
sociating with cats. He says cat fur
asthma is not so frequently found
H the horsehair variety.. If a per
son with horse hair or cat .fur
asthma wishes to avoid the disease
ho must change his associates, or if
he wishes to stay by'his companions
ho can get vaccinated. Walker re
fers to dog asthma, bnt cites so
cases. (jottueD rerers to mree cases
of dog asthma. He also reports one
due to sheep wool.
Here are some more disturbing
cases, walker nad one case wnere
the asthma followed dusting the face
with a face powder composed largely
of rice flour. Goodale reported a
case where the attacks resulted
from dusting the face with orris
root powder. In order to be inclu
sive Walker adds the report on an
asthmatic jeweler, who had trou
ble wnenever ne poiisnea jeweiry ,
with boxwood sawdust. . :
Gottlieb recites the case of a man
who was sensitive to tobacco. When
he quit chewing his asthma stopped.
Bakers freauently have asthma
from the inhalation of flour. Walk
er reports one case due to eating
wheat flour and oat foods, one due
to eating raw carrots, one due to
eating raw celery. Any foods con
taining barley, oat, wheat, onion,
pork, or cantaloupe was. name to
Cause asthma in one case.. ;
When It came to the rood group
Gottlieb -reported a larger number
of cases. He had one case due to
eating each of the following: Beef,
bluefish, casein, chicken, haddock,
lobster, perch, pike, turkey, almond,
bean, brazil nut, huckwneat, caD
bage, cauliflower, oat, coffee, corn,
lettuce, lime bean, peanut, pecan,
raspberry, rice, rye and spinach, two
to barley, lentil, i mustard, potato,
sweet potato and fcarsnips, and three
to tomato and a like number of
wheat.

Because he opposes the execution

Because he opposes one-man rule

American spirit and the American
soul, free from any entangling Eu

America to tako a stand beneficial
to the' interests of all liberty-loving
people" all over the world.
Because1 he believes in upholding
the constitution of the United States

reference to immigration. He be
lieves that immigrants to our coun

GERMANY was a thrifty people they
were hard workers they saved, their
. . i
money tney invested in souna govern-
ment bonds they were taught economy until the actual living
costs were reduced to a minimum. Their wares could be sold
for less money everywhere and the quality of their workmanship
was standard. Today, with Germany out of the way, Japan is
practicing thrift to a finer degree than even Germany did and
unless we of America do likewise the sign of industry will read
"Made in NIPPON,'nand we will again be called upon to pav
the fiddler.
