. BIG BUSINESS FOR WAR In spite of the fact that the omeé sreat purpose of the League of Natlons/ s to prevent war, all Republican facfons are now shouting in unison the ~truth that it is certain to result ir =grossion. and strife.. When (false~.ud is applied to matters of such wument @8 this the people are ent.‘ed in common fairness to ask for asons. - . R ' There is hardly a leader of the Re üblican Party says the New: York cursd aside from the Hiram Johnson: abolicttes and Borahs, who has not it one time or another indorsed th. grinciple of the League. Most of the seat churches, the faculties and stu . uts of the principal universities, the a.r.can Federation of Labor man;‘ <.rary,’ scientific and educationai ticties, several organizations of 2niners and some of the leading non liical. ecmmercial bodies of th. “, ir, have approved the League b, ‘U. .o or p Utivn.d the Senate i gl cuts.de of a few. racia . .d th: palit.cians who culti = oooAwl suppurt of the propos ‘ . all but wnanimous. - - Lt gar Est however that : i@ larty is the party o ~L: 0 ss, a 4 powerful element f 1 . 40t b.o partnership with w:i i publican managemeni . iarl & generation.

' -ere convinced that the League of Na onps mesant war and &_‘continuatior { present conditions the covenan: ould have no more'en(fiusia,stic adseate. It would have forced the rati..cation of the treaty long ago. Ever; pfofiteer in America is ~ infatuateu with war. Extravagance, inflation, incertainty, disorder, increase his ambling ‘gains. To him the armis“fce was. a calamity. In the delay o: ~‘acs and in the prospect of new are, which the Lecague of Nations, “rup riy functioning would forestal!, no profiteer has reaped a rich har--3l already and sces greater abundance ip the future, = * his: is why the Old Guard Republin liadérs, rallying to their side ail a 0 ean bz influenced by the meanest artisanship .and subordinating pariotism and humanity to the one idea of regaining: control - of affairs at Washington have refused to share responsibly in the peace, and by abandoning our associates in war have placed an everlasting - stigma upon american’” honor. Furthermore, ths

s why the Republican Party’'s stodg) cundidatée for -the Presidency faces soth ways on the most important question before mankind, and by misrepresenting the attitude of his own government and the Governments of nearly all other civilized nations plays into the hands of the professional profiteers. - . :

Let nobody mistake the reason for the attitdftle of this section of Big Business. It is opposed to a guaranteed peace. It prefers war, commercial and military. It knows that the League of Natlons is not going to involve us ‘in strife. What it fears is that the League of Nations will promote not only peace but potitical and economic justice, which would bs fatal to vast expenditures for armament and suye death to- cut-throat tariffs and other trade discriminations. The United States will never know a real peace while the spirit is dominant in its politics.: : :

THE STATE'S COAL.

The state seems to have made a fair bargain for its coal, the price running from $2.95 a ton for screenings to $3.50 for coal of prepared sizes says the Indianapolis News. Yet if the figures as to their sale prices given by the Knox county operators are to be relied on, the: men who sell to the. state certainly will not lose, but will ‘have a margin for a reasonable profit. Neverfheless, ‘p%at’e consumers would be delighted if fthey could purchase at such prices as have been made to the tate. That there are enormous profits taken somewhere along tte line [‘is now clear. There is a great change - for the coal commission to serve the psople it has . sncar ourpose {o do. Se. The Knox county prices may well serve as » starting poiat.

mine to the private ben. If coal that is sold by he operator at from $2 to §3 a ton costs the citizen from §6 to §8 the only conclusion possible is that some one has been profiteering— and scandalously. We are told that there is an abundance of eoal, and that the only thing that stands in the way eof supplying it is the lack of cars. Every effort should be made %0 provide these Sometimes, a 8 of late there has been & lack-of labor. But the car problem is sald to be more seriows.

EVADING THE LAW

It is unlawful in Indiana % bhold two publie offices for pay. Jesse Eseliback 1s the legally elected representative of Koseiusko county which pays & salary and traveling expenses. He i also chairman of the state board of sccounts with a handsome salary atteached. Wlen the special session of the legislature eonvened Esehbach resigned his chalrmanship of the aecounts board to become speaker of the house, resuming the offiee of state representative. Immediately after the special session ¢losed he was reappointed to his old position on the accounts board, This is some jugg!ing in a political sense and a guestionabile svasion of the law. i

SPEAK OUT, SENATOR HARDING! The World wishes to put one fair juestion to Senator Harding to which ve wish he would give us one straight inswer in just one single word. = Is he for the ratification of the covenant of the League of Nations vith the Lodge reservations for which ie _voted twiee in the United States 3enate? - . Or is he against the eovenant and :gainst the reservations for whieh h. wice voted? = : -~ For or agalnst? For or against?lew York World. ' The Cromwell Advance this week nters upon the ninth volumne. Fo: .ght years Editor Robbins has been ‘ghting for a bigger and better Cromvell and he has the satisfaction o eling that his labors have not ber:. itogether in vain. - The town ha. ~iken on many improvements in egl ars, all ably championed by the Ad '~ ance. And now the pretty little tov u i+ to have a couple of manufacturing ants which swell its populati: iust towns the size of Cromwell ac good dcal larger ones -have lost in ~pulation in the past ten years. Th .dvance has kept Cromwell on th .ap and helped to hold the popula icn. The Banner congratulates the “ance on its. past success and ishes it prosperity for the future. Hardinc headquarters made public -+ lagéite . irom . Louis G. Bohmrich a ‘ormer ‘emocratic nomines for gov:rnor of Wisconein and a Wilson lector in 1912, pledging support to lepator [Tarding and declaring th “ilson administration had !‘seriously nvaded and brutally ingnored fundanental democracy.” The name and cesidence of this individual -indicate che essence of his grievance. He like thousands of other pro-Germans dislike Wilson for going to war with the ‘fatherland.” - .

Gov. Goodrich rushes to the praise of his legislature for work done at the second special séssion. His praise s not so fulsome however as it was at he close-of the regular session whewn he pronounced it “the greatest legislature session in fifty years.” The fact that two special sessions were neces‘ary to correct the errors made at the egular sessoion is not calculated to reflect much credit on' the present legisiative members.
