methods of the beef packers in relation
to their use Of storage warehouses.
Undoubtedly the general public will
be interested in the discussion which
viii occur concerning the expediency OF
asking for federal supervision of cold
storage warehouses" said Mr. Adams.
In my opinion such supervision is
desirable for several reasons, but prfn-
cipally because 1t would end any con-
fusion in the public mind as to the re-
lations between the packers and the
cold storage warehouses.
The general public does not stop 10
think that under the producing con-
ditions OF this country We must pro-
duce in one half of the year nearly all
we eat in the entire year, and that the
better facilities we have for carrying
over the summer surplus for winter
use. the better protection we shall
have against famines and spectators

REPORT SENT TO SENATE
President Transmits the Findings of
DR.. Hamilton Wright of the
International Commission.
REPORT SENT TO SENATE

The President has laid before the Sen
ate a report by DIR. Hamilton Wright of
the international opium commission on
the opium problem as seen within the
United States and it's insular possessions
Since the inception by this government
of the international movement to study
and attempt solution of the opium
problem the scope OF the work has stead
lily broadened to include other objection
able drugs.
The report says that the position of the
United States in regard to the traffic in
opium in far eastern countries and among
unprotected peoples in the Pacific islands
has been high from the first. and that
under international pacts and federal
statutes American citizens have been eff
fectively restricted from forcing or en-
couraging the opium traffic in those coun-
tries which desired to restrain it, But
1t is also clear, says the report that
while guarding against unwise foreign
traffic in opium the national government
has apparently failed to realize to the
full extent the growth of serious opium
problem in the continental United States.
The report states:

Mrs. Amy Morris. who says her home
is in the 900 block in 5th street south
east, and who is employed as an oper-
ator at the Western Union telegraph Of
ice. was assaulted by colored man
last night about o'clock and robbed OF

was mailing postal cards at a box at

and umbrella In one hand. while in her
other hand she had the postal cards.
Before reaching the letter box she no
ticed a colored man standing near a tree.
There was something about his appear

claimed as he ran away.
The man. who was only little more
than one square from the third precinct
police station when he committed the
theft, ran north along 2lst street in the
direction of the station and soon was out
of sight. Because he went in the direc-
ton of the police station the police think
he did not reside in that part OF the

Laid Out By a Steer

Mr.. j. +. Buchanan, of Grafton,
was in town on Tuesday in confer
ence for while with our book keep
er. Ed" had fall recently, which
laid him OUT for several weeks.
He undertook TO "head" wild steer
that was tearing through the woods,
and hung the toe of his boot under
some kind OF flap, and went end
over end and head over heels, over
several logs and other distractions
which happened TO be placed just
right, and finally landed or large
rock, which just fit exactly against
his breast and chest, and knocked
the "stuffin" out of him. The steer?
well, he went on. Ed said he sent
Geo. Moss word that if he wanted
the doggoned steer to come and get
him, that he was done with him.
Anybody who ever undertook to
drive young calf OF steer, even
in the open, on level ground, to say
nothing of the big, thick woods,
knows what "cuss-provoking"
job il is. and that the man who at
teInpts ii takes his life i'm hisshands.
OF all the fool animals on earth
they seem TO be the biggest, and the
contrariest. Eds" many friends
will be glad TO know that he escaped
with his life, and is himself again.
People in the east end OF the state
AMI over about Abingdon and Wythe
vile are requested TO keep a lookout
for this steer. The last seen of him
lac was still running.

COaldan, Jan. 17-Mr. Editor, -
We have been so busy taking Christ
mas that we haven't had time to
write. Christmas passed Off quietly
here, and everybody has settled
down TO work, even Guy Christian
has gone to work, and Riley Allen is
figuring on doing something just for
exercise.
J. s. Horton is still opening
drifts, digging pits and bitches and
building tram roads, etc. John
says he has helped to open every
drift mouth, ditch and pit on Big
Creek, but he didn't say how many
mud holes he had opened.
Charles Duff is punching scrip at
the company store at Seaboard.
Mr.. John a. Esser is preparing
the ground and getting ready to erect

he will make his home in the near
future. Some Of the boys said he
had already bought car load of au-
tomobiles, but we cant believe it.
Why, Mr.. editro, if you were TO

town that could show you where the
county road is. We will let 80 cents

you can't get them any cheaper FOR

wages are good, but the cost OF Iiv-
ing high; This seems TO be the trou-
BILE everywhere. Men make good
money, but ut the end OF the month
they have either taken il up in the
companies store or owe it to some one
else.
The Empire Coal Land Corpora
ton has decided To add one hundred
