It all to God in prayer. Civilization
strikes them a blow when it should
give them a crown, and their only
friend is he who broke bread with
beggars and said: Come unto me all
ye that are weary and heavy laden and
| will give you rest"
Oh, America. The land of the free
and the home of the brave, the
worlds custodian of chivalry, the
champion of human rights and the de-
fender of the oppressed-shall we per-
nit our maidens fair to be torn from
the hearthstone by the ruthless hand
Of destiny and chained to the ploW?
Shall we permit our faithful wives,
whom we covenanted with God to cher
ish and protect, to be hurled from the
home to the harvest field, and our
mothers dear to be driven from the old
arm chair to the cotton patch?
In rescuing our citizens from the
forces of civilization, can we not apply
to our fair Dixieland the rule of the
sea-'women and children first?"
There must be a readjustment of
the wage scale of industry SO that the
women can be taken from the field or
given reasonable wage for her serv-
ices. Perhaps the issue has never been
fairly raised, but the Farmers Union
with membership of ten million, puts
it's organized forces squarely behind
the issue and we now enter upon the
docket of civilization the case of The
Woman in the Field" and demand an
immediate trial

Precious Radium.

Most people are familiar with the
three-grain tablet or three-grain cap
sule of quinine. But quinine, powdery
fluffy stuff, is extremely light Ra.
dunn, on the other hand, is extremely
heavy; SO heavy, in fact that three
grains Of this most precious metal.
which is worth $4,000, consists of but
a few specks, almost microscopic.
This little fortune, incased in a CON
tainer Of lead, is scarcely larger than
a onegrain capsule Of Quinine, and,
though it may be held between the
thumb and finger, represents greater
value than the life savings of many
an industrious man.

RAILROADS APPEAL
TO PRESIDENT
The Common Carriers Ask for Re.
lief - President Wilson Directs
Attention of Public to
TL~;A N.uLz

The Common Carriers Ask for Re.
lief - President Wilson Directs
Attention of Public to
Their Needs.
The committee of railroad execu.
tives, headed by Mr.. Frank Trumbull,
representing thirty-tive of the leading
railroad systems of the nation, recent.
ly presented to President Wilson a
memorandum briefly reviewing the diff,
ticulties now confronting the railroads
of the country and asking for the CO.
operation of the governmental authori.
ties and the public in supporting rail
road credits and recognizing an emer.
gency which requires that the rail.
roads be given additional revenues.
The memorandum recites that the
European war has resulted in general
depression Of business on the Ameri'
can continent and in the dislocation
of credits at home and abroad. With
revenues decreasing and interest rates
increasing the transportation systems
of the country face most serious
crisis and the memorandum is
strong presentation Of the candle
burning at both ends and the perils
that must ultimately attend such
conf1agratiOn when the flames meet
is apparent to all In their general
discussion the railroad representa-
tives say in part: by reason of leg,
islation and regulation by the federal
government and the forty-eight states
acting independently of each other, as
we'll as through the action of strong
public opinion, railroad expenses in
recent years have vastly increased.
No criticism is here made of the gen.
eral theory Of governmental regula.
ton, but on the other hand, no in,
genuity can relieve the carriers of ex,
penses created thereby
President Wilson, in transmitting
the memorandum of the railroad
presidents to the public, character.
ICES it as "a lucid statement of plain
truth The president recognizing
the emergency as extraordinary, con.
tinuing, said in part:
You ask me to call the attention
of the country to the imperative need
that railway credits be sustained and
the railroads Helped in every possible
way whether by private cooperative
effort or by the action, wherever
feasible of governmental agencies, and
| am glad to do SO because | think
the need very real"
The conference was certainly
fortunate one for the nation and the
president is to be congratulated for
opening the gate to a new world of
effort in which everyone may cooper
ate.
There are many important prob
lens in our complex civilization that
will yield to cooperation which will
not lend themselves to arbitrary rul-
ings of commissions and financing
railroads is one of them. The man
with the money is a factor that can
not be eliminated from any business
transaction and the public is an inter
ested party that Should always be con.
suited and happily the president has
invited all to participate in the solu.
tlon OF our railroad problems.

H. G. Sullivan, of Louisa, Lawrence

monwealth's Attorney here Monday to
n large crowd of people by giving a
square out expression to the people of
how he had entered the race. He gave
the conversation and promises Of J"hn
NJ Waugh made to him in, clean and
concise language, and told of the ar
rangements made by. Judge Redwine,
as told to him by Waugh, in circulat-
ing petitions, to get Waugh to change
his announcement from Judge TO Com
monwealth's Attorney: This was in
the presence OF Mr., Waugh and not a
word he said was denied by Mr.. Waugh
although he followed HIM. in a long
speech without trying to clear the
matter further than to say he received
0S letters from Democrats and Ike
puhlicans" asking him to- make the
change He charged MIR. Castle with
having been in office for many years
and at present holding "A paraslucal
office in the state and receiving Sa.oO

was ,'rotation in office" The fact that
