Start af Home The Democratic national committee issues a pamphlet entitled vil Service—Clean or ee rupt?” It is written by Marion Banister. Pes states in its foreword that it is written for the of informing the women of the country regarding the respective records of the Demo- cratic and Republican parties on civil service. Fortunately for the Democratic national oe mittee, the panphlet undertakes to sell not ae or extract any money from the public. If it ¢ i it would come under the ban of the pe States postal authorities because it would Mert late the law against using the mails for Sales ulent purposes. Nothing issued by that commit- tee equals the pamphlet in question as = beaten falsification of the facts. Instead of giving the record of the Wilson administration in relation to civil service, it suppresses that record. | It contains no mention of the fact that Presi- dent Wilson ousted two members of three of the United States civil service commission in 1919 Decause they refused to debauch the public serv- fee and agree to the federal payrolls being padded with Democrats in violation of civil vi aws. rived : ns no mention of the act of the Demo- congress in 1916 which suspended for a 1 of two years all civil service regulations provided that during that time appoint- ments could be made to any government posi- | tion without any restriction or limitation. This action was taken in order to permit Democratic offic om President Wilson down, to add tens of thousands of Democrats to the govern- ment payrolls, ; It abnkes no mention of the fact that Presi- dent Wilson and William J. Bryan prostituted the consular service of the United States in, or- der to find jobs for “deserving Democrats. It makes no mention of the fact that the stench of the scandal in connection with the ad- ministration of civil service law under Wilson’s first administration became so offensive that the National Civil Service Reform League ask ed permission to inspect the records of the com- mission in order to ascertain the facts. It makes no mention that President Wilson, him- self, refused to grant this permission. Marion Banister, author of this pamphlet, is also editor of the bulletin issued regularly by the Democratic national committee for circula- ton among Democratic women’s clubs. She is a sister of Senator Carter Glass, of Virginia. ‘The foreword of the pamphlet states “women believe that men and women in public office should be chosen for their fitness rather than for their political affiliations or party services.” If this is what Marion Banister believes, it 1s not out of place to suggest that she begin her crusade at home and clean up her Democratic state of Virginia. It would be a greater service to the cause of clean politics and decent gov ernment than engaging in suppressing the pu- trid record of the Wilson administration in con- mection with public service. Republicans cast thirty-elght per cent of the vote in Virginia in 1920, yet the Democratic machine in the state of Virginia does not permit any Republican to sit on state boards or com- missions. Northern Republican states, even those overwhelmingly so, have laws providing that the minority party shall have representa- tion on appointive boards and commissions where those positions are appointive. No such law exists in Virginia. The boards dealing with penal institutions, educational institutions, charitable institutions, taxes, elections, and oth- er public affairs are appointed by the Demo- cratic gang and filled with Democratic gang-| sters. The Democratic gang in Virginia will not give the people a voice in the selection of their judiciary. Not only the state supreme court but the county circuit court judges are elected by the Virginia Democratic legislature, which ac- cepts servilely a slate made up by the Demo cratic gang at Richmond. In this way Repub- Mean counties which have been Republican for years, are deprived of the right to have a Re- publican judge. The Democratic gang in Virginia will not per- mit the people to have a voice in the selection of the county school superintendent. They are appointed by the Democratic state machine. The Democratic gang in Virginia are in absolute control of all election boards, which disfran chise thousands of Republicans each year and from which there is no appeal except to Demo cratic gang-made judges This is the state of Marion Banister, who writes a pamphlet charging the Republican nat- fonal administration with partisanship in fill ing appointive offices in the federal govern ment. Westerners Endorse Tariff One of the strongest endorsements of the Fordney-McCumber tariff is that recently given by the Western Tariff association at its Denver convention. This association is composed of agricultural, livestock and mining interests from the western Mississippi and mountain states. Two 4: were spent in discussion’ of business conditions and the present tariffs re- lation to th conditions, The result of the two day's discussion was a resolution which flatly opposes any changes whatsoever present Fordney McCumber tariff schedul language of the resolution is as follows: o . : prevent the association endorsing the Fordney. 2 | Tones’ opposition was purely political inasmuch “Whereas, substantial agreement has been \reached among representatives of both great | political parties in the necessity for a tariff on | |the products of western industries; and, “Whereas, under the provision of the present tariff act there appears to be opportunity for stabilization of agriculture, mining, commerce, | “Whereas, uncertainty as regards changes in the rates of said tariff in schedules affecting | agricultural and other western products ad- versely affect confidence in credit in the indus- tries of the western states; therefore, be it ucts, or any hasty or ill-considered revision of | any existing tariff schedules until the same shall have been proven inequitable in actual ex- perience.” The only discordant note in the convention was that of United States Senator Jones of New Mexico, Democrat. Senator Jones attempted to} McCumber tariff, but he made no impression. |The representatives of agricultural interests |present knew that the tariff gives them protec- tion and they were also aware that Senator} as he himself had voted for practically every one of the screules affecting western products when the Fordney-McCumber tariff was under debate in the U of Senator Jones on the protective schedules of the Fordney-McCumber bill which affected the interests of his state is as follows: May 19, 19: ‘Voted for duty of 40 per cent ad valorem on salts of thorium and cerium. May 24—Voted to raise duty on graphite jabove that recommended by the senate commit- ee. June 6—Voted for protective rate on litho peraphic stone. June 26—Voted shingles. June 28—Voted for the senate finance commit- tee’s report for protective duty on cattle, fresh beef, veal, lamb, hams and bacon. July 7—Voted for protective rate on black and silver foxes. July 8—Voted against an amendment to low- er house rate on rough or milled rice. July 11—Voted against exempting vegetable oils from protective duty when not used for food. July 26—Voted for senate finance committee’s |recommendation of protective rate on wool. August 8—Voted for providing a bounty on |potash. | August 8.—Voted against reducing protective rate on sugar. August %—Voted for senate finance commit- tee’s recommendations for tariff on hides. Angust 16—Voted against putting tomatoes on free list. Augnst 17—Voted against putting amorphous graphite on free list. August 18—Voted to raise protective tariff} rate recommended by senate finance committee on long staple cotton. This record shows Senator Jones to be one of those Democrats who take an advantage of a Republican protective tariff measure to get protection for all the interests of his state, but who lacks the courage of his convictions to make a stand for a protective tariff as a prin- ciple, and works for the election of a Demo- |cratic congress and administration, which, if in} |power, would wipe out the protective tariff. Knowledge of this fact was the reason the West. ern Tariff association, paid very little attention to Senator Jones’ diatribe against the Fordney- McCumber act, i Provision for Defenders The nation’s defenders have always had to |turn to the Republican party for the greater part of the aid and relief they secured from the federal government. The Civil war veterans are well aware of this fact. The Spanish war veterans, entitled to |federal aid, are receiving it because of Repub- lican legislation. The first effective effort to take care of the ex-service men of the World War was the en- actment of the Sweet bill by the Republican congress which combined and co-ordinated all jagencies handling ex-service men’s relief and jaid into one organization known as the Vet- erans’ bureau. Since then all legislation affect- ing ex-service men has been enacted by Repub- icans, Up to and including the appropriations for the current fiscal year, Republican congresses have appropriated $2,282,579,000 for aid and re- lief of ex-service men. The amount of money the Republican congress has appropriated each year for support of the Veterans’ bureau has been greater than that appropriated for any func- tion of the government, with the single excep- tion of the amount appropriated to meet the in- terest on the public debt. It has approximated one-fifth of the total annual federal appropria- tions. By virtue of Republican legislation and under tepublican administration, there is now in ex- istence a system Of hospitalization for ex-sery- ice men which is pronounced by medical author- ities to be the most complete and the most mod- jern in existence in the world. There are at pres- ent 45 hospitals with a capacity of over 26,000. There are in construction in various parts of [se counter 20 more with a capacity of over Not only are these hospitals perfect in the matter of equipment, but the personnel consists |of men and women of the highest type of sci- jentific, professienal and medical skill, who are |devoting their entire lives to the relief of those for protective duty on the World War. | points. |who suffered by reason of their service during | Che Casper Sunday Cribune It Happened In Wyoming Matters and Things, of State-Wide Interest, Wired in, Telephoned in, Written, Grape-Vined and Some of It Purloined.

His in- Juries were dressed by Doctor Lou Howe, and while painful they are not dangerous. Goff will be con fined to his bed for some weeks, Nail Diet LOVELL—While Grant Taggart of Cowley was doing a Uttle car. penter work last week he rather carelessly swallowed a shingle naii, When he reached for the nail and found it missing, he realized that he had a rather pecullar feeling in his throat and as he swallowed t pain gradually went down, final'y coming to rest Just below his Adam's apple. About that time Grant thought he needed help and sought a doc- tor who told him he had better be: it to Greybull and have an X-ray taken, Grant followed the advica, bit after riding 30 miles in his Ford car the pain had disappeared and ap- parently the nail passed on into the stomach, and Grant decided to save his money. Several days later he decided that it was all right to eat nails, for no ill resutts have been noticed since the nail disappeared, pom ia STn Expert watch and jewslry repair. ing. Casper Jewelry Co..

Nearly 47,000 ex-service men have been placed in positions. More than half of these so placed are earning more than they earned in trades or professions prior to their entering the war. Seventy-four thousand men are undergoing training. Under this Republican administration men jare not only trained to take their places again in the ranks of self-supporting citizens, but they jare provided a free employment service which |co-operates with industrial and mercantile con- jcerns to guarantee rehabilitated ex-service men an opportunity to get on their feet. Approximately 1,000,000 disability claims have been handled by the Veterans’ bureau since its creation by the Republican congress and com- pensation to disabled ex-service men or their dependents is now being paid out at a rate in excess of $1,000,000 a day. | The record of the treatment of ex-service men sof the World War the hands of the Republi s can party is not equaled by any other country in the world. e= you will find eye glass comfort.
