THE AILAMA TKi-VVEEuLk JOLKAAD. GRAIN iv CHICAGO July 30.—Wheat features on the Chicago Board of Trade today dropped to figures below th eprice guaranteed to producers under war-time legislation. De- | cember wheat started 214 down from yester- [ I day's close and another 8 cents before the close. The guaranteed price of wheat at Chicago was $2.26. Lack of demand by exporters and favorable weather, together with a belief that railroads are about to be given rate raises which will bring most efficient movement of crops, were the prin cipal features in today’s drop. Corn and oats were affected to alcsser extent and provisions followed graips down. The losses were accomplished, without a great deni of excitement in the pits. In most cases it was a matter of many sell ing offers and no takers. December wheat opened at 52.31, down 2%. and closed at $2.23. March, down 4’/4 nt tlie opening. $2.32. Closed at $2.2514. July corn opened late at $1.44>,i. up 1. but ber opened at $1.41%, up 1%. closed 3% down, at $1.38. December was % off at the opening. $1.2594. losing 2% in the day’s trading. July outs opened ’4 down, at 78*4e .and closed at 78’4-c. September opened at 69c down %, subseipiently losing %. Decem ber was unchanged on opening, at 69%c, but lost ’4 before the close.

IVatson Opposes League, Espionage Lazo and Other Policies in Platform Thomas E. Watson’s platform a a candidate for . the United States sen ate was made public Friday in his newspaper, the Columbia Sehitnel. The platform consists of four main planks: 1. Opposition to the espionage law. 2. Opposition to and denunciation of Woodrow Wilson. 3. Opposition to the League of Na tions, "root and branch, with or without reservations.” 4. Opposition to universal military service, which' he. denounces as a training school for future wars. Mr. Watson,, makes no attack in his platform upon other candidates for the senate, either announced or prospective. lie ; mentions Senator Smith briefly and in passing, with a criticism of' his support of the League of Nations with reservations. Text of Flatform The text of Mr. Watson’s platform is as follows: • Subject to the Democratic primary, I hereby announce myself a candidate for the senate of the United States on the plat form following: (1) The iuinieduite. repeal of all laws autliorizing United. States of livers and spies to invade the states, breaking into private rooms and dvieUiugs wiiliout search wor rnnts. arresting persons without criminal warrant, casting those persons into dun geons, refusing such persons a public and speedy trial, refusing to present their cases to grand juries, refusing them tlieir consti tutional right to trial by jury, but trying them in secret, before an agent of the so called diqfartnivnt of justice, refusing them tlie benefit of counsel and of compulsory process to bring tlieir- own Witnesses into court, and convicting them without evi dence, except that of Mitchell Palmer’s paid spies. Unless these unconstitutional acts of con gress shall be repealed, no citizen of this union will be safe from the spies, thugs, torturers, perjurers and murderers of fed eral government who announces the new doc trine. that tlie accused must prove his in nocence. The mental dementia ,of Woodrow Wilson shows itself nowhere more unmiatakably than in his rage for despotic paper, and his eraze for keeping us teclinicully nt war, when every sane American wants peace, and knows lie could get it. were it not for Wilson’s mulish obstinacy. (2) If elected. I will do my utmost to have a jail delivery of all .citizens ivho arc impris .med because of Wilson’s auto cratic intolerance of opinions different from his own. President Wilson telegraphed ids con gratulations to the, French republic, on the anniversary of the destruction, bf tlie niol), of the French Bastille, in which arbitrary B■• 'bon ’.ini's limp tc! t r:l.'•■(( i’oioe, or • ro x,e,li men, without warrant and without trial. ui.i ...I,e ~»i,. ..I .. .a.,.. ••• ». .Mem ber the victim. Led Russellites, tlie victim-’ ized conscientious objectors, and the victim ized Socialists, one of. whoipl Eugene Debs, is still in prison because he had the bravery to tell the truth about the real causes of tlie great war. (3/ 1 will do all in my power to repeal those statutes which attempt to enlarge the law of treason, as delined in the constitu tion of tlie United States. Tlie attempts being insidiously made are known as the alien, sttdition and espionage laws; and they seek to make• treasonable mere words mere expressions of opinion, peaceable assemblage to criticise the gov ernment. and all other acts of free men and women not in accord with the official views of the White House. The constitution of the United States has but one definition for treason, and that definition cannot be changed, except by tlie will of the people, expressed‘through their state legislatures, after two-thirds of the senate.'and lower house of congress shall have proposed tlie amendment, and tliree fourtiis of the state legislatures shall liaye ratified it. Tlie law of treason, as defined in the constitution, requires that the traitor shall have made war upon tlie United States, or Ik:v<? given aid and comfort to their ene mies; "mid the constitution expressly says that, unless the. accused, makes confession of guilt in open court, he shall not be con victed, except by the testimony of two wit nesses,' swearing to the same overt act.’ (''.Act,” mind you.) (4) If you elect'me. your senator; I will strive wit!: nil my might to return to you your personal liberties, which have been taken away from you by tlie despotic admin istration of Woodrow Wilson. Those rights are set forth by the supreme law of'tile land, made by the fathers, who won our liberties, by seven years of terrible struggle. In tlie constitution itself you- Will read that no man shall be punished for any crime involving moral turpitude until after tiie following pteps have been taken against him: An affidavit mnd'e by a icitixen, a warrant Issued by a'inagistrafe inside the state and county where tilt alleged crime was com mitted; tlie right to give bond, and a bond which shall not be excessive; the right, to a speedy trial, and one which shall be public; the right to be tried by a jury of his neigh bors and his equals, iu the vicinity in which (be accused lias lived and in which tlie crime is alleged to have been .committed; no un usual punishment shall be inflicted upon the accused, oven after the trial jury shall have unanimously found him guilty. lie shall liave tho right to face his accus ers. and to compulsory process to bring Ills own witnesses. ’.. ' -•• Tlie infamous doings of the ’department of justice, under Mitchell' Palmer, the present incompefciit sind tyrannical attorney general, have crowded the Jails of this’country witli citizens, males apd females, and even little children, under tlie alilen act, who were ar rested without warrant, released without compensation or banished to (5) As is well known .throughout the country, I am oppposed to’tlwi league of na tions. root and branch, with pr without res ervations. A woman cannot lose her innocence, and reserve it; neither can a' nation surrender its independence, and “reserve” it. There can be nd conspiracy of presidents, premiers, kings, tnlkiuios and autocracies, which does not oy-errMe and overrule every member of’.(Lat ledgity, exe.e|iting uiajprity vote Englai d. . > “ in spite of nil interpretations and reser vations (which enn be swept away'by a su preme council in Europe);,such a league and such a supreme coiincil will subordinate to a secondary’ [X/sition every member nation over which it has been made supreme. England is safe and dominant, because she retains the •. inhjority vote- Had (lie league been adopted when Wilson first demanded it. or when it was first or- ■ ganizod in London, we would now be in- ■ volved in Britain’s war against Russia, in tlie Italian war with Bulgaria, in tlie Gre cian war against the Turkish empire, in tlie Englis'i war ’ against the Turkish empire, in the French war against Syria, in Eng land's war against tlie Arabs on tlie Red sen and on the Euphrates. These leaguers, who are-being hoodwinked by tlie international bankers and bondhold ers are even now clamoring for American triaips to help tire British and French beat (he Russians back, whep they liav edriven (lie Poles from Russia, which country the Roles invaded at the instigation of France, England and President Wilson. The Poles were supplied with guns, mu nitions, clothing and food by England, i’r/nce and President Wilson. Even now, the egomaniac Wilson is stealthily aiding Poland in every possible way. (6) I am immovably opposed to compul sory military training, in peace. Suclr training is the death of democracy, ahd the cultivation of universal war lust and blood lust. . In defense of our country, in war, the volunteer has always been invincible. In time of peace, surely the state mi litia, the national guard and a standing army of 300,000 men can keep down the riots that break out when the billionaires try to starve tiie workman and reduce him to tlie position of a slave, to toil all his life, at a pitiful wage, and then be turned out to die when old and exhausted. We do not need to have this country turned into a vast military camp where .tlie boys are to be taught that murder is right.'if commanded by an officer. We tlo not want it made into a Godless proflteerism of monopolists, upheld by sol diers. No young man will be safe in his field, in the shop, in the mill, in tfie store, if we have compulsory military education, and a league, with article ten in it, which may eall tliose young men, any day, to far away Poland. Persia. Shantung or to India, to defend the Britisli empire; or to Syria and Madagascar or Africa to defend the empire of France. I am opposed to conscripting men for military service in foreign countries; ever since 1215 this has been illegal. The Great Charter forbids it and our con stitution forbids it. (71 If elected your'senator, 1 pledge my self to do all iu my power to repeal what is known as the franking privilege, which allows members of congress, cabinet offi cers, heads of departments and the presi dent himself to send thousands of millions of pounds of mere junk through the mails without paying postage on it. (8) I will endeavor to stop Ihe appro priation of money to publish government papers and magazines. R. F. D. Service It will be one of my purposes to improve the R. F. D. service, and put the parcels post on such a footing as that it will really compete with the express companies. At present it does not. (9) If elected to the senate, I will do my utmost to re-assert ami restore the reserv ed rights of the states. We need a determined leadership, which will establish th* Americanism 'which is written in tlie Declaration of Independence, in the United States constitution, in Wash ington’s farewell address and in the great messages and addresses-of Thomas Jeffer son. Janies Madison. Janies Monroe. Andrew Jackson, Robert Toombs. Benjamin Hill and Alexander H. Stephens. We do not intend to have our American ism measured by the secret code of those popish organizations—tlie Knights of Co lumbus. the Jesuits and the young officers of the American Legion. (10) I will do my utmost to have the' postmaster general deprived of all power to censor the mails, and to crush publications which do not meet his approval. Let every publisher be responsible to the courts for any abuse of free press, but let the postmaster general keep his paws off. His office does not impose upon him the arduous duty of teaching a free people what to say and print;' his official duty is to see that the mails are efficiently han dled, nnd if he does that he will have measured up to the full expectations of the publie. We don’t intend to take our opinions from the White House or from the postoffice de partment, and tlie sooner that idea soaks into the hegds of such petty tyrants as Burleson and Woodrow Wilson the better it will be for democracy, civilization and the happiness of mankind everywhere. (11) We want tlie thousands of useless employes, the majority .of whom are ne groes. and Catholics, put off the pay rolls of the government, since they have nothing now to do—if ever they had anything to do, except to enjoy themselves at your ex pense. (121 Without any .authority whatsoever. President Wilson loaned to European kings and European governments nine thousand millldn dollars of your money. I oppose this unconstitutional policy. This government lias the legal right to borrow money for our own welfare, but no power to tax America for the benefit of Europe. Tlie constitution confers upon congress the right to borrow money, but certainly no lawyer will contend that tlie president had (lie legal authority 'to lend our money to Great Britain, France, Italy and Russia. Nine thousand million dollars, taxed out of us—was virtually given away to Europe. Favors Right to Strike (13) I favor the workman’s right to strike, to use his own money when lie needs it: the right to hold peaceable meetings dur ing strikes: the repeal of the atrocious Lever law; also the immediate grant of in dependence to the Philippines. (14) I am in favor of giving this coun try what it wants, namely—Peace, and a withdrawal from all European entangle ments. Who made us responsible for Europe, or Asia, or Africa? Who made us the accomplice of Great Britain’s'crimes, and of the imperial atroci ties of Japan and Poland and of Franee? Who had the authority to make foreign contracts, in secrecy, which violate our su preme law, and yet bind our “nationa. honor?” How can a president, sworn servant of this government, go ahead and legally make a new government for this and for other ciuntries? It’s all bosh! . The peoples have not been consulted, any where. They have been ignored; their natural boundaries cut and slashed: their racial rivalries, creeds and hatreds requested to sponge themselves off the map. If our president can leave tlie country, and create a new government one time, his successors can keep on going .abroad and making new governments. If President Wilson can choose 1,600 pro fessors, profeworesses, experts, expert esses, historians, hltorlanege, atronomers, nstronomeresses, including George Creel and Mrs. Creel, why, it stands to reason that President Cox will find some defect in Wil son’s amateurish work, and will leave us—to be gone a year or so—for tlie purpose of making lovely speeches concerning heaven, nnd another league of San Domingo, Liberia, Hedjnzz and hell. I regret that. In 1920, Senator Smith voted against tlie resolution declaring that the war against Germany was at an end. although President Wilson had told congress that the war ended in November, 1918. Two years have passed, nnd yet there is no peace; ns an offset, however, we still have Senator Smith. Tlie high cost of living, which is the blight of tiie land, is due to the fact that immense duties have to be paid at our cus toms houses, before foreign food, clothing, lints, shoes and other necessaries can be sold in our markets. If these necessaries of life should be placed on the free list, the prices will fall before foreign competition. 1 will introduce such a bill, and do my best to pass it. (15) The people created the government of the state; the states created the federal government; the fathers who framed the constitution of the United States were care ful enough to say tliat the federal govern ment should guarantee to every state "a republican form of government.” The fathers were careful enough to write It into our supreme law, that all powers not delegated to the federal government, and O 0 New Questions 1. —What is the origin of the ex pression “grass widow?” 2. —When did the English first sa lute the American flag? 3. —What is the weight of 1,000,000 silver dollars? 4—Do farmers have large families nowadays? 5. —What is an Olepsydra? 6. —How do the national debts of the world today compare with the debts before the world war? 7. —What is the meaning of Urim and Thurim as used in the Bible? 8. How many women will vote this fall if the suffrage amendment does not pass by that time? 9. —Why isn’t the moon always round? 10. —How should a fishhook be re moved that has been caught in the flesh? Questions Answered 1. Q.—Was Joan of Arc buried at the stake? 1. A.—Joan of Arc was tried be fore an ecclesiastical court as a sor ceress, and condemned to death. She was burned at the stake on May 10, 1431, three years after she had led the French troops to victory at Or leans. She was beatified by Pope Pius X on April 11, 1909. 2. Q. —Did the United States make much headway in the manufacture of dyes during the war? 2. A. —The bureau of chemistry says that American manufacturers made greater progress in the manu facture of dyes in the last four years than Germany did in forty years. Numerous dye factories came into existence in this country, and last year we exported approximately $17,- 000,000 worth of dyes. Before the war we depended almost entirely upon Germany for this product. 3. Q. —How is the United States standard time calculated? 3. A.—The United States naval observatory has three standard clocks running in constant tempera ture vaults, electrically wound and sealed to keep the air pressure con stant. Meridian circle observations of selected stars are taken regularly on clear nights, and from these ob servations, the errors of these stand ard clocks are determined. 4. Q. —What is meant by pairing in reference to members of congress? 4. A. —When one member wishes to be absent, he or the party whip arranges with a member of the op not denied to state, remained in the people. From what source does Senator Smith de rive his authority to vote away our republi can form of governtnent? What did ills oath moan to him. when lie swore to defend, protect and preserve the constitution made by our fathers? Who vested him with power, not given him by tlie instrument he swore to defend and preserve ? How can reservations be'made by sworn preservers? What is there to iiinder another congress, or supreme council of tlie league from nul lifying those reservations? Nothing at all. • There are many honest people who sin cerely believe that the League of Nations means peace. The evidence is on tlie other side; I have cited it. Hew can you harmonize tlie races, reli gions, dynasties, and differences of govern ment among all these people? No national, racial, or religious question has been settled by the league; and history tells us how former leagues, like this, have bred fearful wars. All the way from the league of Delos, down to that of t’ambray and the Holy Alli ance of 1815, these dreams of peace have faded away in tlie elemental passions of men. Italy is battling Bulgaria; Greece is in vading Turkey; and Poland is kindling an other and .greater world war. instituted by England. Franee and Woodrow Wilson. The Irish war is in bloody progress; Ja pan’s war on Siberia is in full blast; the Russian war is a vast welter of blood, for which President Wilson is largely responsi ble; Germany rocks and reels, under revolu tion after revolution; Turks still slaughter Armenians; and Great Britain is using tlie gun, the bayonet and tlie bomb in every one of her held-down dominions. She got enormous spoil out of the great war-—Egypt, Persin, Mesopotamia, German Africa, nnj) Islands of tlie Seas—and Presi dent Wilson pledged England the help of our men and our money, if her vast loot should ever be endangered. How can a man of intelligence make the mistake of believing that the league has made for peace, democracy, and the com monest rights of men! It is a league of interlocked spoilsmen, who despise the people, and who feel the need of our money, our navy, and our army, to safeguard tlie spoil. (16) I believe in the election by tlie people of federal judges, from lowest to highest: and I believe that candidates for president should be nominated by a direct vote of the people. In no other way can we dethrone the bosses of corrupt political machines who go to every national convention and wire wofk during tlie whole time, to nominate somebody that the people have not chosen. We need 'never expect reform from the White House. The monstrous one-man autocracy of Woodrow Wilson is too deeply Intrenched at that end of 'the avenue, for any president | to ever dislodge it. Tiie work has got to be done in the sen- ! ate. and to a lesser extent, in the house. Y'ou have seen what a few senators could do, in repulsing Woodrow Wilson’s traitorous attacks upon the fundamental principles of our government. I mention such intrepid senators as Reed, of Missouri: Shields, of Tennessee; Borah, of Idaho; Johnson, of California. If four senators could prevent the be trayal of your country to England and Ja pan, a fifth one of tlie same sort would certainly not weaken tlie barrier against Woodrow Wilson’s surrender of your inde- | pendence to a foreign league, which holds j out to him the prospect—so alluring to his I little soul—of becoming the first emperor of the world. No flag above ours! . No foreign congress issuing orders (o ours! No foreign congress assessing taxes against ours! No foreign bankrupt governments unload ing their debts on ours! No foreign land-grabbers; no coal and oil grabbers; no foreign timber thieves and in ternational slave-drivers, ordering our young men to tight for England in Russia, in Per sia. in Mesopotamia, in Egypt, in the ! Arabian mountains and plateaus. No forejgn supreme council ordering your sons to Syria, and to Turkey, or to Ger man Africa to fight for the booty which France lusts for, as her spoil of war —the war in which she said that she wanted noth ing more than her salvation from Germany. (17) I stand, and will continue to stand, for government ownership of railroads, tele graphs, and telephones; will oppose those who seek to unite church and state; will combat those who seek to abridge, in the slightest degree, the full freedom of the press, of religious worship, and of "the utmost freedom of speech,” which Wilson told the Parisians he had always advo cated.

When Representa tive Kitchen was taken ill while speaking against a peace vote, Rep resentative Longworth, of Ohio, im mediately offered to pair his vote with that of Mr. Kitchin. 5. —Q. Who was Peggy O’Neill? 5. —A. Peggy (Margaret) O’Neill was the daughter of a Washington tavern keeper, noted for'her beauty and wit. She first married a purser in the United States navy named Timberlake. After his death she mar ried Major J. H. Eaton, who soon afterwards became a member of President Jackson’s cabinet as secre tary of war. The wives of the other cabinet members generally refused to recognize Mrs. Eaton, and Jack son, an old friend of both Mr. and Mrs. Eaton, failing in his attempt to break down the opposition, effected an almost complete reorganization of his cabinet. 6. —Q. On what basis was the zero of Fahrenheit’s thermometer fixed? 6. —A. Fahrenheit adopted the coldest temperature that he observed in the winter of 1709 for the zero, on his thermometer. 7. —Q. Is it true that the ex-kai ser had some of the walls of Jerusa lem torn down when he visited that city? 7. —A. The kaiser wanted to make an imposing display and the gate in the walls at Jerusalem was not wide enough to accommodate the mounted cavalcade as he had planned it. The gap was widened at his request. 8. —Q. -Does the money collected in tollls pay the operating expenses of the Panama canal? 8. —A. Yes- During the fiscal year ending June 30, 1918, $6,439,983.99 was collected as toll from vessels which passed through the Panama canal. The cost of maintenance and operating expenses for the same year were $5,903,715.69. 9. —Q. What is the Miatterhorn? 9. —A. This is one of the principal peaks of the Alps and, therefore, one of the natural wonders of the world visited by tourists. 10Q.—Is it necessary to put wine away with bottles laid on their sides? 10. — a. All bottles 0f» wine should be kept on their sides. Champagne and all sparkling wines roust be so placed that the corks are wet, other wise the corks dry and shrink, the air gets to the wine, making it flat' and insipid. DOCUMENTS FROM OFFICIAL SOURCES EVIDENCE OF MOVE (Continued from Page 1) A wholly new method of interna tional co-operation is going to come out of it. It will not. of course, be either the creator of the millenniujn, as so many of its friends say, nor the creator of a superstate, as Its enemies feel. Quite on the other hand, it will be a very practical and es sential working medium through which the nations can meet regular ly on all matters of common inter est and draw up a program to be submitted to their respective states for approval or disapproval.” The League of Nations, therefore, is a going concern, flexible enough in its organization to permit modifi cation of its constitution and by laws so that America can enter it without fear of being outvoted or compelled to go to war at the behest of other nations.' And when the pres ent political campaign is over, wheth er Mr. Harding or Mr. Cox is elected, there are going to be modifications to reassure the American public. American membership in the league looks more likely today wifli the prominent part Mr. Root is playing in its deliberations than at any time since the controversy between Presi dent Wilson and his opponents began to becloud the issue.

With some difficulty they were pur suaded to do their training at an other hour. z "I’ve managed to hit the wall at 4 1-2 feet,” said the 60-year-old kick er. "and have lost two pounds.
