VIEWS OF PRESIDENT
WILSON GIVES HIS IDEAS ON
RURAL CREDITS.
Special Machinery ,f Distinct Meth
ed Must Be Provided to, Help
Farmers In Need.

Washington, Aug. 1.-The follow
ing statement was issued at the
White House embodying the views of
President Wilson on rural credits:
Again and again during the dis
cussioin of the currency bill 1t has
been urged that special provision
should be- made in it for the facilitat-
ing of such credits of the farmers Of
the country who stand In need Of
agricultural credits as distinguished
from ordinary commercial and indus
trial credits. Such proposals were
not adopted because such credits
could only be imperfectly provided
for in such a measure. The scope and
character of the bill, its immediate
and chief purpose could not be made
to reach as far as the special inter-
ests of the farmer require.
Special machinery of distinct
system of banking must be provided
for if rural credits are TO be success
fully and adequately supplied. A gov
ernment commission is now in Eu-
rope studying the interesting and
highly successful methods which have
been employed in several countries
Of the old world and it's report will
be made to congress at its regular
session next winter. 1t Is confidently
to be expected that the congress will
at that session act upon the recon-
mendations OF that report and estab-
lish complete and adequate system
of rural credits There is no subject
more important to, the welfare and
Industrial development Of the United
States; there is no reform In which
would myself seek greater honor
or privilege to take part, because
should feel that 1t was service to
the old country of the first magnitude
| and Significance. 1t should have &C
companied and gene hand in hand
with reform OF our banking and cur
rency system If we had been ready
to act wisely and with full knowledge
of what we were about"

mated on Friday by the lieuteant gov
ernor
Replying to formal proposal by the
impeached executive to submit the is
sue to adjudication on an agreed state
ment, of facts. Mr.. Glynn declared it
was beyond his power to barter away
any of the functions attaching to the
Office, In which am placed by your i'm
peachment."
ANY attempt on my part to do so,
he said, cor to stipulate method by
which 1t might be done, would proper
ly place me in the position you now oc-
cupy-that of being impeached for
malfeasance in office"
Mr.. Glynn declared further that he
| proposed to perform every function OF
the office of governor except in so far
as l am restrained by your illegal &C
tion or by physical force"
The announcement of the lieutenant
governors policy came late at night
and followed negotiations between the
respective counsel of the two men in
the afternoon, which it was then sup
posed had resulted in a virtual agree
ment to take the case to the court OF
appeals.
The letter was delivered to Mr.. Sui
ger at the executive mansion.
Subsequently horde of irate Muir
ply followers suggested, through theil
spokesman, that Mr. Glynn turn out 9
/ regiment Of the National Guard, which
| is ready to obey his commands, and
/ forcibly wrest the scepter OF govern
ment from Mr.. Sulzer.
Again Mr.. Glynp shook his head.
1t Is the purpose of Mr.. Suffers
counsel. who contend that indictments
for high treason against Tammany Bos.
| Murphy and his lieutenants will be
asked for, to maintain before the court
of impeachment that Tammany Hal
coercion brought about the impeach
ment. of Mr. Sulzer
The serious condition of Mrs. Sulzel
necessitateds the recall OF DR.. Rober
Abrahams from New York No oficia
bulletin was forthcoming from the ex
ecutive mansion concerning Mrs. Sui
zer, but an afternoon bulletin, dictated
by DR.. Abrahams after he had learned
of the patients condition over the tel
phone, stated that she was "still in ;
precarious condition" with a tempera
ture of 102 and pulse 118.
| Washington, Aug. 1S-The fedora
i government soon may be confronte,
with the problem of determining
whom 1t will recognize as governor 0
New York.

National Guard enjoys government

RECEIVES PEACE PLANS
PRESIDENT WILSON'S MESSAGE
Is FINALLY DELIVERED.
Mexieo's Provisional Head May Be a
Candidate for the Presidency of
the Republic.

Mexico City, Aug. 18.-President
Wilson's message to President Huerta
is now In the possession of the gov
ernment, which may be expected to re-
ject 1t or to return some answer short
ly. Foreign Minister Gamboa in the
two conferences with John Lind, Presi-
dent Wilson's special representative
in Mexico, came to the conclusion with
the consent OF President Huerta, that
the simplest way to an end was to ac-
cept the document for President Huer-
ia and his cabinet and study it.
1t would appear now that as the
message has been in the possession
of the government since Thursday
night, and no action concerning it has
yet been announced. there is good
chance for its acceptance.
President Huerta' gave Friday night
what was considered to be an In
timation that he would be can
didate for election to the presidency
in the autumn When asked as to
his intentions, he said 1t was unde-
sirable for him to make at this time
a statement as to the possibility OF
his candidacy, but that he might an
nounce his intention in a fortnight.
Washington Aug. 1S.-The Huerta
government, through conferences be
tween John Lind, President Wilson's
personal representative, and Foreign
Minister Gamboa, now knows the
viewpoint of the United States and its
desire for only peaceful and friendly
solution of Mexico's troubles. The
formal communication will be trans
mitted to representatives Of foreign
powers here Monday.
It is expected in diplomatic circles
that President Huerta will formally
announce a call for an early election
even setting the date. 1t is regarded
as possible that the constitutionalists
would participate in an election con
Quoted by a nonpartisan commission
of Mexicans, plan now under discus
sion here as an alternative that NIGH

Drought Affecting RusInesa.

Millions of dollars have been lost to
the farmers of Central Kentucky by
the drought which has prevailed since
July 1. There has not been general
rain and but few showers, which were
accompanied by the destructive winds
and hail, since the first of July.
Farmers, believing that sheep could
exist with less water than beeyes.
shipped their beeves to the market
and kept the sheep. The ponds are
dry and the springs have disappeared
in many sections, and as result Com
missioner of Agriculture is receiving
reports that many sheep are dying.
The pastures are parched and in some
localities almost detroyed. Commits
sioner Newman estimates that the loss
to the hurley tobacco growers in Cen
tral Kentucky and the adjoining coun-
ties will not be less than $4,000, 900;
that the corn crop, which was S60,000,-
900 last year, may be cut in two, and
in some cases the loss will be 80 per
cent. The wheat crop suffered great
ly and returned loss of 25 per cent

VIII Organize Canning Clubs.

Canned fruit may become the
typical product of the Kentucky
mountains if a movement set on
foot by church people and mountain
evangelists and approved by the State
Department of Agriculture meets with
the success anticipated. Markets are
not accessible for the mountain fruits,
which grow in abundance and great
variety. Consequently, much Of it
goes to waste, and in times past more
of it has been converted into brandy.
Next year it is proposed to make
thorough canvass of the mountain
country in the interest of the girls
canning clubs. Commissioner New
man said he intends touring portions
of Eastern Kentucky this fall after the
State Fair, and Mrs. Helen Wolcott,
who is in charge Of the camping club
work ard has spoken at institutes in
| that section, probably will go along.
Two callers at the department in
dicate, it is believed, the sentiment
existing there. The Rev. George Wat
SON. of Mt. Vernon, and the Rev. Will
liam B. Bayers, of Hyden, Presbyterian
ministers, called to ask Commissioner
Newman to send farm experts to their
counties. Mr.. Bayers has taken par
ticular interest in fruit culture. He
wanted cannery started up there,
but when the canning club proposi-
ton was broached to him he secur ed
list of approved canning outfits and
said he would undertake to introduce
the club work himself on a small scale
to start the movement. Mr.. Watson,
who is son of the late Howard Wat
son, of Frankfort, in addition to his
ministerial duties has voluntarily as
sumed the function of consulting farm
expert After going into the field he
saw the needs and the opportunity and
fitted himself to cope with the eco
nomical as well as the spiritual situa.
ton by taking course in agriculture.
He has been stationed in Rockcastle
county, but will in the future be at
Bonneville. Both men said the can
ming club is especially adapted to the
needs of the mountain people, as they
raise fruit in abundance, but find il
impossible to market the fresh crop.

RATING BOARD
VISITS CHICAGO
HOLD CONFERENCE WITH INsUR
ANcE COMPANIES ON ITS NEW
TOBACCO SCHEDULE.
DUCK HUNTERS COMPLAINING
Regulation Going Into Effect This Fall
Is Claimed to Be Discrimination
Against Kentucky.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Frankfort-Members of the Ken
lucky State Rating Board visited Chi
panies on it's new tobacco schedule
and on the proposed classification Of
experience. The actuarial bureau is
now going over the tobacco schedule
to determine how much of a reduction
it involves, and it is probable that 1t
will show much greater reduction
than Is regarded as justifiable in view
of the heavy loss ratio on Kentucky
business in general. The actuary of
the board estimates that the new to-
bacco schedule will make a reduction
of from 40 to As per cent on brick
loose leaf warehouses and from % to
33 per cent on their contents, and of
from Is to q per cent on frame loose
leaf warehouses and Is to 81 per cent
on the contents. The companies have
thirty days under the law within which
to protect the rates.
The companies assert that if the
Kentucky board is to pick out the i'm
portant profitable classes and reduce
rates on them and then not permit any
increases on the Improbable classes.
| which is regarded as certain under
present political conditions, the loss
ratio in the state will continue to
mount That this is the probable pol
icy of the board was shown by its de
mand for classification figures made
several months ago, on which action
was deferred until this time. 1t asked
the companies to give it their expert
ence on distilleries, bonded ware
| houses, tobacco risks and other i'm
portant classes with the expectation
that a reduction would be demanded

Seek Pardon Before Trial.


What appears to be peculiarly un-
fortunate case from Shelby county
was laid before Gov. McCreary in a
petition for executive clemency for
Emmett Scarce, member of one of
the most prominent families in the
county, who is under indictment, ac-
cording to the statement in the petit
ton, which is supported by Circuit
Judge Charles Marshall, Common
wealth's Attorney Charles H. Sanford
and Roy Smith, who would be called
upon to act as prosecuting witness,
young Scarce was just recovering
from long period of severe illness
attended with fever and had not fully
regained his normal mentality, when
he drove Smiths horse away. The
horse was returned; Smith made NO
effort to prosecute the boy, and every
one thought the incident was closed
when the grand jury indicted Scarce.
The officials and Smith desire not to
embarrass Scarce by trial or to retire
the case and leave it pending against
him; so they united in petition ask
ing Gov. McCreary to pardon Scarce
