Borah, Republican, of Idaho, that at least two of the Republican candi dates for the Presidency are, spend- inff vast sums of money in their cam' paigns and that an attempt is . being made to control the party convention has created a fcJf VW W 0 - panicky situation ia ' the G. O. P. ranks. Unless thu differences in the ( party can be smdothed down Repub licans fear that the Borah " charges will react against the party in the campaign next fall, no matter who is . nominated. , , ' Senator BoraVs latest telegram to G eneral Leonard Wood demands' that he make public a list of his contiribu- . tions ' and expenditures ' arid inf prms ' that candidate that unless he famil iarizes himself with what is going on in his behalf and corrects conditions "you will bring disgrace upon your name, upon our party and your epun- . try." The" Idaho Senator has also called for a showdown on the amount of monev being spent by the Lowden campaign' managers. Governor Low den has agreed to submit to an audit of his books and Senator Borah ien- . . . i i aeavoring 10 arrange jor n jnoyow tion early in ApriL r k ( So far the replies made by' Gen eral Wood to the Borah charges have not satisfied Senator Borah. This is shown by the caustic telegram sent General Wood reading: ; i ', "Press dispatches state you claim voters of Michigan. You are. in part the attack upon you was to sway he correct. It was intended not only to ; sway the voters in Michigan bijt in the United States. I know of no other tribunal to which to appeal to correct these practices. But it can only.be effective provided the facts I stated ' are correct. " ' ,: "It is within your power, to give to the people of Michigan and other states a list of your subscribers, the amount which you 'did expend in South Dakota, the amount which you you arc expending, and the amount you propose to expend in Ohio and Illinois. . . ... '; "If you will make a statement pf these facts over your signature I will correct any erroneous statement I . have heretofore made. The mater ial which is coming from South Dako ta, Illinois and Ohio convinces me that I was modest in my statements. "General Wood, if you are not familiar with what is going on in your behalf for the Presidency J take leave to assert that unless you familiarize yourself, and correct it, it will bring disgrace upon your name, upon your party and your country, s "It is up to you as a soldier and a man to come out boldly and meet these facts and either show the pub lic that they are unfounded, or else . repudiate the men who have mani- ' tested their determination to control the national convention through the use of money." j This telegram from one Republi can to another reveals the bitterness now prevailing in the G. O. P. ranks. -,. Practical politicians of the party fear' the effect upon the morale of the or ganization and it is exceedingly dia- ' tasteful to them to have a "money scandal" injected into the campaign so early.' ' Chairman Durbin, of the Ohio , State Democratic eommittee, charged aa early as last November that the Republicans were preparing to raise' a great "siush fund" for use irt the general elections. At that time, how ever, it was not anticipated that can ; didatea for the nomination would fo- cus public attention upon the use of money so many months in advance of the NanmW aloof - . - VIVVMVU Senator Borah will attempt to get prompt consideration in the Senate of the bill he . introduced, providing that the campaign publicity law shall tply to Pre-iicatial candidates and blty was the outgrowth of reports which Senator Borah said he regard ed as entirely reliable that large sums of money are being expended in behalf ef certain Republican can? didatea for the Presidential, nomina tion.'::; :fK,'ry-Jr; ".?v !, As ' General Wood seems ; to be dodging the issue by refusing :: any definite reply to a Senator of his own party, and ja the telegram ; received by him from- - Senator ,: Borah is one that should ' appeal , te a man who hold auch .exalted rank in the army of his country, it would seem that there is in one case at least good reason for Senator Borah and, the. public to believe that there is some foundation for their suspicions if not for their beliefs. Let the General sit upon a court martial of any man in the army. Let direct questions be asked the man, let the man re fuse to answer or try to evade direct answer. Let the evidence ' against him be strong, and the army prisons will have a new inmate in the near future, following the court martial. Therefore why should the General not be called upon to answer to the public the direct demands and 're quests of a Senator of his own party? Because he is a General in the army is no loop hole for him to hold him self aloof fr'om the public demands, and require the salute as the chief executive of the nation as he may be able to do in the army. The rank in the army is. not the .rank in public life. Stars on the shoulder -are not stars in anyone's crown. , senator Borah is trying to save his party from disgrace, as he' open ly tells the General in his telegram It might be better for the military candidate for President to heed the Senator's warning now, and "square things", with the public while there is yet time,, or he may have the evi dence brought out at the last mo ment and lose not only the Presiden tial nomination but his exalted rank in the United States army as well. The army is not the Senate. New berry may be permitted to hold his seat in spite of the laws made by that senate, but Wood will find that the army and the Senate are two entirely different bodies or organi zations. "A word to the wise is sufficient" and Senator Borah ia doing his' best to utter that "word." It remains to be seen whether Wood and other Presidential candidates are "wise." 7 V jW mm mi I iM', RED MENACE Score of Large Denominations Allied With Attorney General ; Palmer In Awakening Nation . to Enemy Peril Within.

God-Fearlng Voters Covenant to Put at the Head of This Government a . Man of Proved Capacity and Firm nesc Who Will 8uppreca the Preach- era and Praotlcors of Discord and ; Violence. ' , - ': " -, Washington. The greatest Indorse ment ever given to the outstanding Americanism of a living official in pub lic life is the forward movement repre sented' by the powerful among more than a score of large church denomi national organizations which has Just been effected a this country to combat the ?'Red menace." j - ' Twenty-Ivc million persons, repre senting more than 70 per cent of the membership of all Protestant church organizations in the United States, are now lending their strength to the alli ance which will carry on. to It logical conclusion the work of Attorney Gen eral Mitchell Palmer in awakening the people of the nation to a realization of their peril from the enemy within and protecting the government with a firm band fronTthose ,who sought to over throw it by force and violence. t -, , Americanism and Americanization is to be the watchword of the churches, and the Christian people of the coun try, who have caught the note from the reveille sounded by Mr. Palmer, will see to It that a man alive to the great question and of proved capacity to 1 carry on the great work that is helng launched Is put at the head of affairs of government in this country. ' To these millions of earnest people who see In the safety of the country, home and fireside the overshadowing issue of the future, regardless of poli tics or politicians, there can be no stop backward now that the forward move ment is on, and the man who appeals to them most strongly as measuring up to tbfi highest standard of American ism and whose deeds are test-proof of his high purpose to bring bis whole Country to a realization of .the loftiest ideals of citizenship will receive their undivided support in primary, election and In the administration of his high office. (;:, ''"'.'. ;; '','';:;,'-::-' 'V'r Before the great campaign of Ameri canism to be undertaken by the Protes tant church organizations is well under way It would not be surprising to find the percentage In the alliance grow to a round 100 per cent, representing 100 per cent Americanism. : ' ' ' h The great, hierarchy of the Roman Catholic Church in the United States is heart and soul with the movement for. Americanization and will lend its full strength to, the promotion through the far-reaching : channels of the church of the preaching and teaching ef staunch Americanism to the many millions of its congregation within the United States. : . .;'.;?.--: A pastoral letter, the first Issued by- the heads of the Catholic Church in the United 8tates In 85 years, has re cently gone to sail its people, in which. the following paragraph Is not tne least In importance of the declarations of the letter; - ' "Whatever may bethe industrial and social remedies which will approve themselves to the American people, there, is one that,- we feel confident, they will never adopt That Is the method of revolution. For it there IS neither Justification nor excuse under our fortn of government Through the' ordinary and orderly processes of edu cation, organization and legislation all social wrongs can be righted. ' While "these processes at times may seem dis tressingly slow, they will achieve more in the final result than violence or rev olution. The radicalism .."and worse than radicalism of the labor movement in some of the countries of Europe has no lesson for the workers Of the Unit ed States except as an example . of methods to be detested and avoided." ', Thus the churches and their people In the United States stand united in a determined movement to look to the future security of the 'government of their country and the peace and happi ness of its people. In this, as In many Blmflar movements which have written' history. It Is more a question of the man than the'measnre. The formation of the powerful alli ance In . the tnterchurch world move ment to campaign against red radical Ism with Americanism is but another proof, that the American people have made the issue of .the day for thegov ernment, for the church and for the nation. It Is stated that the inter church world movement Is serving as a clearing house for speedy and co operative action to cope with the evils of radicalism, -which have been made public as the result of a nation-wide suryey. On tbeir of. account the rep resentatives of these 25,000,000 people of the country have found that "Ameri canism" is the one and great Issue now before the people, and have called upon. ,tfie churches to expend from tbeir emerjiescT, funds several millions of dollars in Immediate effort to raise the standard of Americanism.

McDougall EASY 3 The First " ON EASY; T E R M S More than a quarter of a century ago the kitchen cab-" inet idea was originated by ' C. P. MCDOUGALL,1 founder of the MCDOUGALL COMPANY. It was briefly, to bulid a combined cupboard and work-table ' for the housewife, in which would be assembled all the materials and utensils needed in the preparation of a meal. From that basic idea and the first MC-i DOUGALL Kitchen Cabinet which evolved from it has grown the1 whole great kitchen cabinet industry. The MCDOUGALL was the . leader Twenty-five , years ago. It led the procession then for a host of early imitators, and it still leads in all that goes to make a kitchen cabinet better. The MCDOUGALL , is not an ordinary kitchen I cabinet-l-it is a veritable method of better kitchen ' management. Thfe method extends to every working unit in the kitchen, but its primary purpose is to save 1 time and labor, as evell as a bitter utilization of food, etc. One hundred per cent efficiency and th.rif are its inevitable , accompaniments when introduced ' in a home. , ' - ' ' , ' ' , Yours to Serve, ' BAKER BROTHERS TARBORO, N.
