It the government's suit against the oil companies will lower the price of gasoline, the public will welcome the investigation. But like most investigations conducted by the government, it may have a tendency to increase the price, for you know that the oil companies must pay their lawyers and in the end the public pays the bill. We are in receipts of a letter from a breadcasting station in Chicago offering to furnish us with a beauty talk program, but as each lady has her own way of "making up” we have declined the liberal offer. Then. too. the barber shops are crowded every day with the fair sex waiting to get the latest bob and we are convinced that most women know how to become beautiful without having the news broadcasted to them. As was predicted, the democratic convention begins on the second week today. The platform has Ireen adopted and from today on the dele gates will have but one thing to do - that of balloting for the presidential nominee. The candidate for vicepresident will be named within a few ballots and by the middle of the week the big convention will be history. Nearly one hundred tickets were pledged for a community chautauqua next year. To assure another high class and entertaining program at least 590 season tickets will have to he subscribed and if you are one of those who want u chautauqua next year make it known by pledging several tickets, it's up to you to de Clde.

The • linutanqua will close thia evening with one vt the biggest pro grams of the week. "Buddies” a mtisi cal review and un address by Mr. George C. Aydelott will be given and those who enjoyed last week* pro grants will <ertalnly be entertained thia week. Attend the program and it you want a chautauqua next year pledge to take one or more tickets. Senator Itatatotr appears to be gain Ing ground and It would not be surprising If the dejegatoa would turn towards him after several ballots have been taken. It would not be aurprla Ing either If Fiatrtflff. Roonorelt of New York, managnr for Governor Al Smith, would receive a henry rot« before the balloting la completed.

Face to Face With Bernard M. Baruch War-Time Power in Democratic Party (By Joe Mitchell Chapple) During the World War there was one name thai represented high authority in the Wilsonian administration. Bernard Mannes Baruch of New York City, us a member of the Advisory Committee of National De feuse, and Chairman of the Committee ou Raw Materials on the War Industries Board, had an authority not surpassed by any one man, excepting the President of the United States. As Chairman of the War Industries Board, in that eventful year of 1918, he made a study of essentials and non essentials—an opportunity rarely given oue man. A man with prematurely gray hair, devoted to his white-haired mother, Bernard Baruch is a familiar figure in New York City where he was born in 1869. For many years a member of the New York Stock Exchange he later became a well known figure in Washington during the war. When Barney Baruch decided a matter in those days it was about the last word, tor he was one of the close advisors of the late President Woodrow Wilson. Being a member of the Conference on Capital and Labor and various other organizations to study agricultural conditions led him to write many art ties and pamphlets on the problems of the farmer. Naturally he will be conspicuous in the re-union at Madison Square Garden of the Democrats identified with the war adm'nistration. who still have hopes of being recalled to office. Barney Baruch has often expressed . his desire to alleviate the desperate condition of the farmer. He had , made many trips through the West and South, living on farms, ranches and plantations in order to get first ' hand information. Ills eperiences as. 1 a member of ’he New York Stock j Exchange, he has felt worth while to; utilize for the benefit of the farmer. I "The farm problem is a quest on of, ! marketing. There is nothing that re- 1 sembles equity in the present opera- 1 tions of selling the farmer's products." The father of Barney Baruch was a surgeon in the Confederate Army When Barney Baruch secured h's A. ' B. from the College of the City of. New York, in 1889. he was incourag-J

Amid ccenca of excitement, the democrats adopted Hie autiKlun plank on the floor of the convention, the minority report, which would have inserted the name of the Ku Klux Klan, being voted down by only one vote, tne totals being 312 in favor of the committee report and 511 for the minority report.

The vote was accepted by ail concerned and today the delegates are balloting tor the presidential nominee. <s Over la Wabash county the township trustees are going to wait umil the teachers’ Institute is held to determine If they will employ girls with bobbed hair as teachers In the rural schools.

Level-heated, Batyiey Baffuch $s counted an influence wherever Democrats gather, and his association with the American Commission to negotiate peace and the drafting of the economic section makes him a leader n determining the democratic policy on feffeign market relations In the gathering of the old war-guard, faithful and true, to launch another Democratic campaign, the man who participated in the two Wilson victories will be sought for counsel. "Something tells me.” he said in his calm and Incisive way, "that 1924 in go'ng to see the name and policies of Woodrow Wilson fully vindicated by the people. My judgment is that the time has tome for a change back to the party that conducted the war to complete the work of readjustment.” Woodrow Wilson could always depend upon Barney Baruch of New York, whi in away supplanted Col. E. M. House, "the silent." while the latter was abroad during the war. "The renewal of acquaintance among those who served during the st rring period of the war will crystallize into an aggressive organization to make a campaign that <lll assure a victory in 1924.” and Mr. Baruch contemplatively continued looking over a list of names and checking up the tried and true.

Summary and Important Planks in the Democratic Platform

Democratic Principles The Democratic party believes in equal rights to all and special prlvileges to none. The Republican party holds that spoc’al privileges are essential to national prosperity. It believes that national prosperity must originate with the special interests and seep down through the channels of trade to the less favored Industr'es, to the wage earners and small salaried employes. It has. according, ly. enthroned privilege and nurtured self witness. The Republican party is concerned chiefly with material things- tiie Democratic party is concerned* ch'efl.v with human rights. The masses, burdened by d acriminating laws and unjust administration. are demanding relief. The favorite special interests, represented by tlie Republicans, contented with their unjust privilege, are detnand- | 'n* that no change be made. The i Democratic party stands for remedial i leg-station and progress. The Republican party stands still. We herewith print several of the most important planks in the platfonn: , Freedom of Religion; Freedom of Speech; Freedom of Press The democratic party reaffirms its adherence and devotion to those cardinal principles contained in the eonstitut’on and the precepts upon which cur government is founded, that congress shall make no laws respecting the establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble and to petition the government for a n-dress of grievances, that tlie church and the state shall be and remain separate, and that no religii* test shall ever b" required as a qualification to any office of publ'c trust under the United States These principles w» pledge ourselves ever to defend and maintain. We insist St all times upon obydience to the orderly process's of the law and deplore and condemn any effort to arouse refg’ous or racial dissension. I League of Nations The Democratic party pledges all Its energies to the outlawing of the whole war system. We refuse to be 1 lieve that the wholesale slaughterof human beings on the battlefield is, any more, necessary to man's highest development than is killing by individual. The only hope for world peac* and for econom c recovery lies in the organized efforts of sovereign nations cooperating to remove the causes of i war and to substitute law and order; for violence. Under Democratic leadership n practical plan was devised under which 54 nations hre now op- rating ‘ and which has for its fundamental purpose the free co-operation of all met ons n the work of peace. The government of the United States for the last (our years has had no fore'gn policy and consequently It has delayed the restoration of the political and economic agencies of. the world It has impaired our self - r-spect at hogg-‘ and injured our--prestige abroad. It has <urtailed our -foreign market* and ruined our agricultural prices. It is of supreme importance to civ-| ’.lzation end to mankind that America' Ik- pl* —d ami kept on th-’ 1 right side of tht- greatest moral question of ail t'mc and therefore the Democratic party renews its d--< Ur» ton of confidence in the deal of world peace, the League of NaLons ar.d the world court of justice as to-1 aether constituting lh« supreme effort of the stat<*mnn-hlp and rellg'one conviction of our time to or-! gnnize the -world for peace. Further, the Democratic party declares that It would be th<* mirpose of the' n»*xt ml' mln straiten to do all in -t» power to secure for this country that moral leadership in *■* temtUsn of natloas
