Miss Zelda Means of Bhinelander has accepled Ihe position of primary leacher here. She has filled Ihe vacancy of Miss Jillson. Emil Beyer called at Rhinelander Tuesday The Issue of War Taxation Dr: McCarthy, Ihe "meet-me-fare-to-face" Democrat senatorial as- piranl, has! had a revelation. It came Sunday, and he it like Ibis: You can't beat Bob LaFollelte by shouting loyalty, lou can only beat him by taking the good issues that he puts forth, and. standing just as strongly for them and more so, at the same lime go Ihe limit in support of the (lag and the nation.

llir pood elector deserves credit for his frankness. To admit that Senator LaFollelte, or a candidate pledged to him, can be defeated only by Ihe rankest kind of political opportunism and patriotic camouflage is going a long way for a Democratic candidate. There is just one weakness in Ihe doctor's thesis, which is the assumption thai such a will fool the Let us take, for instance, the issue of Hie profiteers for the cost of tliis war. That is 1-aFollclte's issue.

The revenue bill was passed wilh a of but 31 per cent on war profits, whereas Ihe English profiteer pays from SO lo SG per cent. Hut tfie issue inure vital than ever, and so does the haired of the profiteers. Because 1-aFollctte led that heroic light for the equitable distribution of war the adequate taxation of war-created has been made a target of aspersion and villificaiion unparalleled, liaising the charge of disloyally, the profiteering crew have ramped on his IraU from lo Madison, ami are now hue and cry after the senatorial candidate who "stands by Hut the big returns of the war profiteers have been spread before the I people thru La'Foltelte's efforts. The scandal of their lax-escaping billions 1 cries to heaven. The people are aroused, and the politicians know it.

So, even as Dr. McCarthy suggests, they take just as much as they can of La Follette's issue in order to get out from under. Thus both Mr. Lenrool, the Republican, and Mr. Davies, the Democrat, in their "loyalty" platforms, say their little say about taxing wealth "to the limit practicable," or so that it will "bear its full share of the burden." Just enough to get by! But they don't say that Ihe Democratic leaders and the Republican leaders both fought such taxation.

They don't say that the administration made a move to bring this about. They don'l say thai l.aFollelte was Ihe original champion of I his great issue and he Lcre tl brunt of the fight and has ever sinre In-en its victim. And they don't say. above all. liriw they would lax Ihis war-made wcnlth, how far they would strip the exeess profit and the surplus income, how they would conscript the profiteer's earnings even as the man.

blood of the country is conscripted. These things they carefully refrain from telling the public, Just as they refrain from disclosing Ihe whole scandal of the profiteering record; these things 1-aFoHellc done fearlessly and unflinchingly, time and for the enlightenment benefit of the American people.

These candidates may even "stand just as for those "good issues" as LaFnllette (tho no would "loyalty" candidate has yet dared to do so) but the-public will only ask: "Where were you when it meant sacrifice and denunciation to take that sf.ind for Ihe people, and how do we know where will stand when you have got the While Senator was lighting for this in the U.

Sizer an idea of her ability. -Mrs. J. E. Sizer held the close attention of the audience last Sunday evening lo Ihe close of her address.

Her audience received a new idea of palriotism as she advanced one argument after another and her facts against the liquor traffic. She has an attractive personality on the platform and with her intensity in delivering she makes a magnetic speaker. She is able to awaken an interest in her hearers at the beginning and then hold Ihis inleresJ to Ihe end. She is able to make people think and then talk of Ihe address days after it has been delivered."
