•CONGRESSIONAL
ELECTION WITH
LEAGUE ISSUE
,
GALLATIN, Mo., Jan. 28 (by Asso
ciated Press).—The League of Nations
nj'obably will be made an issue in the
special election to be held February
14 to fill the vacancy caused by the
appointment of Joshua W. Alexander,
former representative in congress
from this district, to the portfolio of
4- secretary of commerce. Although no
oflcial announcement has been made
by any of the candidates, Democratic
politicians who are in touch with the
situation declare that the league will
unquestionably be made an issue.
The principal contestants for the
Democratic nomination are Charles E.
Taney, a wealthy stockman of Liberty,
Mo., and Captain J. L. Milligan of
^Richmond.
The Republican aspirants are Frank
B. Klepper, prosecuting attorney of
Clinton county, and John E. Frost of
Plattsburg. Klepper was elected to
congress from the district fourteen
years ago and served one term. Frost
was defeated at the last election, in
1918, by 1,795 votes, a small plurality
for the district, which is nominally
strongly Democratic.
Republican leaders profess to see
^hope for a victory for them in the
"factional struggle within the Demo
cratic party in the district, recently
intensified by the killing of Wesley
L. Robertson, editor of the Gallatin
Democrat, by Hugh Y. Tarwater, city
clerk of Gallatin.

Americans do not want a large standing army, nor do they want their
young men trained as military conscripts. They want them trained as
citizens. As citizens they must be ready to make their contribution to the
industrial and spiritual development of the nation, champion the prin
ciples of democracy and defend their country in case need arises.
I believe that the government should make provision for this sort of
training in citizenship. Our experience with the military camps shows
that they can be made great educational institutions, where the distinctions
of wealth are obliterated, where men are taught to respect one another
because of their real worth, learn the nature of their government and the
ideals of America, lay the foundation for an actual productive vocation,
and at the same time get that physical training and sense of co-operation
which military training can give. 1 am opposed to militarism, for mili
tarism means a development of a desire for war and an arrogant, com
manding class. I favor and urge the adoption by congress of means wdiich
shall give every young man an education in citizenship more complete than
the schools can give and one calculated do increase both his physical pow
ers and his national loyalty.
Such a training in citizenship is very different from the military
system of Germany. It would require only a fraction of the time for
strictly military service. It would be essentially an education, rather than
warlike preparation. Every year it would send back into the home thou
sands of young men with an understanding of their country, a sense of
respect for others, and a physical development which no institution at the
present time seems calculated to give.
What we need is training camps, not to make soldiers, but to make
citizens wrho in time of peace can help develop the life and resources of the
nation, and in times of national danger can become defenders of theii
native land.
BRONZE TABLETS TO
MARK PASSING OF
OLD ORANGE TREES
RIVERSIDE, Cal., Jan. 28 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Riverside is mourning
the impending death of the city’s most
noted patriarchs, the authentic fathers
of California’s navel orange industry.
The venerable pioneers are the two
original orange trees brought to the
United States from Brazil forty-five
years ago. From these progenitors, it
is said, have sprung all the navel or
ange trees in the state.
The trees, unable to withstand the
ravages of time and disease, are fast
dying. This year they had no fruit
and only a few leaves. A movement
has been started to mark the spots
where they stand with bronze tablets.
