President Wilson Urges Bold Cham pionship of League of Nation by Democratic Party. t ' A call to the Democratic party to go into the campaign standing square in favor of the treaty of Versailles and against the Senate's reservations ! was recommended by President Wil ' son in a telegram to OregoA Demo cratic leaders made public at the White House. The telegram was in response to the following message from G. E. Hamaker, of Portland, Ore, chair man of the Multnomah county Dem ocratic central committee: "Primary election May 21. Please wire whether you consider it Import ant to nominate candidates pledged to ratify Versailles treaty without Lodge reservation, tufl Tne reply ol tn President follows: "I think it imperative that the par ty should at once proclaim itself the uncompromising champion of the na tion's honor and the advocate cf eve rything that the United Statis can do in the servic of humanity, that it should therefore indorse and support th.5 Versailles treaty " and condemn the Lodge reservations as utterly in consistent with the nation's horor and destructive of the world leadership which it has established and which all the free peoples of the world, in cluding the great powers themselves had shown themselves ready to wel come." "It is time that the party should proudly avow that it means to try, jw.'ihout flinching or turning at aay time away from the path for reasons of expediency, to apply moral and Christian principles to the problems of the world. It is trying to accom plish social, political and internation al reforms and is not daunted by any of the difficulties it has to contend with. Let us prove to our lata asso ciates in the war that at any rate the great majority party of the nation, the party which expresses ih tiue hopes and purposes of th, people of the-ountry, intends to keep faith with them in peace as well as n war. They gave their treasure, th;iv West blood and evrything that they valued in order, not merely to buat Germany, but to effect a settlement and brins about arrangements of peace whuh they have now tried to formulat0 in th treaty of Versailles. They are entitled to our support in this settl-e nient for which they have striven. League Hope of Wor.'d. "The leapue of nations :s the li",c of the world. As a basis for the ar mistice, I was authorized by all thy I great fighting nations to say to the enemy that it was our oojor.r m pro posing pejee- lo establi3h a general association of nations under specific covenants for the purpose of afford ing mutual guarantiees of political independence and territorial integri ty to great and small stafe alike, and the covenant of the league of nations is the deliberate embodiment of that purpose in the treaty of peace. "The chief motives which led us to enter the war will bft defeated un less that covenant is ratified and acted upon with vigor. We cannot in honor whittle it down or weaken it as the Republican leaders of the sen ate hav proposed to do. If we are to exercis the kind of leadership to which the founders of the republic looked forward and which they de pended on their successors to estab lish, we must do this thing with cour age and unalterable determination. They expected the United States to be always the leader in the defense of liberty and ordered peace through out the world, and we ara anwortby to call ourselves their uccessors unless we fulfill the great purpose tney entertained and pro claimed. "The true Americanism, the 1 only true Americanism is that which puts America at the front of free nations and redeems the great promises which we made the world when we entered the war which was fought, not for the advantage of any single nation or' group of, nations, but for the sal ivation of all. It is in this way we shall redeem the sacred blood that was shed, and make America the force she should be'in the counsels of mankind. She cannot afford to sink into the place that nations hav, usu ally occupied and become merely one of those who scramble and took about for selfish advantage. "The Democratic party now has a great opportunity to which it must measure up lhp honor of the nation IF COUNTY IS DIVIDED. THERE WILL BE HIGHER TAXES Taxpayer Who Haa Had Experience With New bounty stays raxes Will Be Higher if County is Divi dedHis Taxes Went From $3.36 to $15.44. To the 'Editor of.Th BobcBoniui: I am a subscriber to The Robeson ian and have been keeping up some what with the two factions as to the division of th county, making a new county or counties out of Robeson. I am a taxpayer of said county. I moved to Marion county (Lake View, S. C.) Since that date Marion coun ty has been split and formed Dillon county. In the year 1909 I paid to Marion county tax amounting to $3.93; in 1910, in the new county (Dillon county), I paid $1344. This will give the readers some idea as to variation of tax which is sure to be levied if the county is split. Of course every section wants a county eat. Naturally it must take a high levy to build court houses and jai's, officers to fill the different po sit.ons of iaid ccunty. The expense of a large county is not as great as a small one. This has been experi enced by all new counties but after the divisions are made, it is too late to recant. I am for one county and let that be the old county (Robeson). No division, no higher tax, unless it is to go on roads, schools, etc., to makp the large county of Robeson better. As stated above, if the county is divided there will be higher tax. C. A. BASS.
