48-ERS BOLT THIRD PARTY Split With Labor Leaders on Platform; Radical One Adopted. TWENTY-FOUR HOURS OLD La Follette Outline Overwhelmingly Voted Down and Original Labor Document Is Adopted by Acclamation. Chicago, July 16.—The “Fortyeighters,” led by Amos Pinchot, Gilson Gardner and George L. Record, bolted the third party convention when the labor platform was adopted by acclamation. They are holding conferences at the Hotel Morrison to l determine future action. The La Follette platform was deI seated by a vote of 308 to 125. The majority report then was | adopted by acclamation. M hen the convention recessed Chairman Hopkins of the Forty-eight-ers said he would stay with the majority, but spoke only for himself. The twenty-four-hour-old “Third party,” formed Tuesday night by an amalgamation of the Labor party. Committee of Forty-eight and other independent political units, split over j the question of platform. Two distinct platforms were of- ■ sered on the floor of the convention: The original Labor platform. A platform dictated by Senator La Follette, who had been considered as the certain nominee of the convention. Leaders of the Forty-eight group announced earlier In the day that should the Labor platform be adopted and Senator La Follette’s document turned down, they would be unable to go along with the new party any further. Lester Barlow, president of the World War Veterans and a strong supporter of I.a Follette, declared that there had been intrigue and misrepresentation in an effort to defeat La Follette, and that he would lead his group out of the convention if the । laborites started their “steam roller j over the wishes of the delegates.” The net result was that the Labor I party resumed Its own business at the point where it desisted when the For-ty-eighters marched in. A statement issued by Amos Plni chot, Gilson Gardner and George L. I Record, all Committee of Forty-eight I leaders, in substance was as follows: “It is time that the ‘inside facts' j should be known. “The trouble came because the Laj bor party thought the new party ' should be a class conscious, radical , party, standing upon the principle of British guild socialism expressed in trade union language. “We believe the new party should have a short, definite platform, aimed I at the destruction of economic privif lege. “We offered the substance of our St. Louis platform. “A form of platform offered by friends of La Follette was also preI sented. with the undertsanding that j the senator would be willing to ac- ; cept nomination on that platform. “We agreed to accept that platform. Labor refused flatly accept It. “The resultant situation was. that If we had adopted the ‘La Follette platform’ we could probably have had i him as leader. He would not run and no other public man having any eon- | siderable following could have been Induced to accept the nomination. “In that event the new party would have entered the field with a Socialist platform, headed by a radical labor leader and the campaign would have been between that candidate and Debs for the negligible vote of the Socialists. “We wew unable to join a new party established upon such a basis.” i GOLD PRODUCTION REDUCED World’s Output Last Year Below That of 1918 and 1920 May Be Still Lower. Washington. July 16.—Less gold was produced throughout the world last year than in 1918 and indications are that the 1920 output also will show a reduction, according to the United States geological survey, which on incomplete returns places the 1919 production at from $345,000,000 to $350.000.444.

VERMONT STAYS IN ANTI COLUMN Governor Clement Refuses to Call Special Session of Legislature. — HITS STATE CONSTITUTION Issues Proclamation Against Ratification of Amendment for Woman Suffrage—Says Other Amendments Were Forced Through. Rutland, Vt„ July 14.—Governor Clement issued a proclamation refus- I ing to call the legislature in special session to make possible ratification * of the federal amendment for woman suffrage. The governor's proclamation follows a conference which ho held at Wash- ■ ington recently with Senator Harding, at which It is understood the Republican nominee for president discussed with him the possibility of having ratification completed by the Republican legislature of Vermont. In giving his reasons for refusing again to call a special session. Governor Clement said the proposed amendment clearly invades the constitution of Vermont; that the present legislature was elected before the question of ratifying the federal amendment had arisen, and that the people As the state have had no opportunity to express themselves on the Issue. The governor proposed that the matter bo taken up by the next legislature and urged that candidates for election be required to declare themselves on it. Governor Clements' proclamation assorted that “as it stands and Is interpreted by the Supreme court today, the federal Constitution threatens the foundation of free popular government." The seventeenth amendment to the Constitution, be snid, had been lobbied through congress and state legislature* by federal agents, and the eighteenth amendment had been forced through by “powerful and irresponsible organizations, operating through paid agents with unlimited funds. “It is now proposed to force through the nineteenth amendment for woman suffrage In the same manner and also without the sanction of the freemen,, I have been asked to overlook these considerations as a matter of party | expediency, but this is a matter of principle, not expediency, and the party that Invades a well established principle of popular government will suffer in the end.” ADMITS KILLING HIS WIFE State’s Attorney's Office at Chicago Announces Wanderer Has Made Complete Statement.

‘‘PLENTY NEXT ODOR” Record Harvest Predicted for Canada. After having made a careful survey of the wheat producing area of the United States, experts whose business It is to keep the people Informed on the acreage sown to foodstuffs state that this year there will be a falling off In the wheat production In the States, due to a considerably less area cultivated. The opinion of these experts is that the decrease will be several hundred million bushels of wheat less than in previous years, which according to past experience will be scarcely sufficient to meet the requirements of the demands of the people of this country. In Canada, however, the situation Is different. Reliable reports on the crop situation throughout Western Canada are such ns to create the most substantial optimism. Never before were the prospects so encouraging for a bumper harvest. It Is predicted that the yield this year will be even greater than in 1915, the year of the record harvest In Canada, when the total product/jon wns 393,542,600 bushels. Not only is the wheat looking excellent, but f^e same Is true of oats, barley and flax, of which a greatly increased acreage has been sown In the great grain producing provinces of Canada. L The rains that have fallen recently have come at the right time to stimulate growth and there is now considerable moisture In the ground. With the world generally facing a shortage of wheat and a continued heavy demand for It, the price is likely to be maintained at the present high figure. In many districts corn has been more extensively planted than In previous years and it is looking remarkably well. Many settlers from the United States who came to Western Canada and bought Improved farms In the early spring have every prospect of a crop yield that will give them a return sufficiently large, after paying all current expenses, to pay off a large part of their capital Investment. Livestock is in excellent condition everywhere, the rains having Induced a good growth of grass.—Advertise" menu A Helping Hand. A very shy young farmer was courting a serious-minded young woman who was not averse to him or to marriage. but she found herself after a long period of silent courtship no nearer the goal than ever; the young man could not summon up courage to speak. One night, as they sat together—ln dead silence, of course—ln her father’s parlor, she decided that the hour and the man had come.

IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL sundayschool Lesson (By REV. P. B. FITZWATER, D. D., Teacher of English Bible in the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) (Copyright, 1920, Western Newspaper Union.) LESSON FOR JULY 25 DAVID SUCCEEDS SAUL AS KING. LESSON TEXT—II Sam. 2:1-7; 6:1-5. GOLDEN TEXT—Trust in the Lord with nil thy heart, and lean not upon thine understanding.—Prov. 3:6. ADDITIONAL MATERIAL-I Sam. 31: 1-13; II Satn. 1-27; 2:8-4:12. PRIMARY TOPIC —The Shepherd Boy Becomes a Kinp. JUNIOR TOPIC—How David Became a King. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC —The Secret of David’s Success. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —True Success and How to Win It. The death of Saul lay open to David the path to the throne. This would have rejoiced the heart of many, but David was sad. Instead of reward being given to the slayer of Saul, quick ■ vengeance was executed upon him. I. David Made King Over Judah (2:1-4). He knew full well that the Lord by the hand of Samuel had anointed him to be the successor of Saul. He had learned the essential lesson which the School of Providence was designed to teach, namely, that the position now open to him was no easy one to fill. Ills exile and sufferings gave him selfcontrol. He had the good sense to know that promotion to the throne did but bring “harder duties and multiplied perplexities.” He threw himself upon God and asked for guidance. He rendered Instant obedience to the Lord’s answer. If we are to enjoy God’s fellowship and blessing we must render quick obedience. He made a right beginning, therefore God pros- ' pered him. When he reached Hebron the men of Judah came and anointed him king over them. Thus a part of ' the nation recognized him as king and । ratified the work which Samuel did many years before. When David went . up he took with him all who had been with him in exile and suffering. They ! are now sharers with him in the kingdom. When I»avld's great son, Christ, shall enter uj»on his glorious reign. ! : those who have been faithful to him , in his rejection shall reign with him. j I “If we suffer we shall also reign with i him.” (Il Tim. 2:12); “To him that I ! overcometh will I grant to sit with me I I In my throne, even as I also overcame, | ' and am set down with my father in his throne." (Kev. 3:21). 11. David’s Behavior Toward the Men of Jabesh-Gilead (2:4-7). The men of Jabesh owed much to Saul (1 Sam. 11), and they showed this recognition of debt by making a daring dash to rescue his body from the ignominious exposure at Bethl^ hem. David’s act of sending men to Jabesh with a message of good will for their affectionate remembrance of Suul is an exhibition of his noble gen- . erosity. Ills love for the unfortunate I king survived all the injuries which | he suffered at his hands. He forgave | and forgot them all. This wzs an act | of political shrewdness as well as a generous one. In fact the only policy which proves effective is that which proceeds from a generous heart. He deftly follows this generous cominendHtion with a solicitude for the men of Jabesh to transfer their loyalty to himself, since he is now their legal king. Since Saul Is ww dead, tie urges them to be valiant for him. In .lew of the civil war which was to follow he knew it would require valiant men to stand by God's king. This ippeal to be valiant la needed now, foi <ve ;r all called upon to take side? DeTween God s appointed king, Jesus ['hrist. and Satan, the pretender to the throne. May Chrisffs appeal result in .making us faithful and valiant for Him. 111. The Dual Kingdom—War Be- ; tween the House of Saul and the House I jf David (2 >-4 :12). This period of civjl war lasted sever ' mid a half years. Most of the tribes I jf Israel clung to Ishbosheth, Saul’s Bon, whom Abner had proclaimed king ।st Mahanaim. Feuds continued beI tween the rival generals. David's power increased while that of Ishbosheth’s waned. IV. David Crowned King Over United Israel (5:1-5). Though the struggle for supremacy lasted long ami was a bitter one, Abner's deatli and Ishbosheth’s assassination put an end to David's opposition. David’s behavior during this time gradually won for him the confidence of the tribes so that they all came io him at Hebron and anointed him as their king. They accepted his divine right to rule (v. 3). The reasons for anointing him their king were: 1. Ho is their brother (v. 1). This Is true of Christ our King. Through the incarnation he has become one with us. 2. He was their true leader in war even in Saul's time (v. 2). 3. He was the Lord's choice (v. 2). One Thing Needful. Jesus says to all of u% "Ye are distracted about many things, but one thing is needful. Seek ye first the kingdom of God.” Mary saw things ’n their true proportion, and when the Master was present the most important thing was to hear his words. She also saw that there are times for all things and so we ought to see that there are times when all other things ought to ho laid aside and put out of mind, and give ourselves to earnest communion with Christ. That takes the fret and worry out of Bfc, for we come to understand that “one thing is needful.” The Joyful Harvest. He who sows, even with tears, the precious seed of faith, hope, and love shall doubtless come again with joy, bringing his sheaves with him. because it Is the very nature of that seed to yield a joyful harvest. —Cecil. Speaks to the Imagination. The silent upbraiding of the eye Is ‘he very poetry of reproach; it spe a k s it once to the Imaginative.—Mrs. Balfour.
