COMMERCE AND FINANCE.
RETAIL TRADING GOOD,
SAYS CUNO H. RUDOLPH
Money Market Easier Than a Week
Ago-Merchants Find Condi-
tons Favorable.
BY CUNO H. RUDOLPH,

President Second National Bank.
Written Expressly for The Washington Herald.
Business here in the past week was
good, especially retail trading. The
weeks results for merchants showed
great improvement over those of
May. The meeting of the Districts
demand for taxes slowed trading
down somewhat, as did the inclement
weather, but both those causes are
now matters of the past.
Most of the money which left the
property owners to go to the Treas
ury by way of District officials is
finding its way back into District
banks again. The Federal govern
ment has but one more deposit to
make of this money
The money market, on the whole,
was easier during the week than that
of the week previous.

The conference directed Chairman

to prepare bills, in line with the state

CARRIERS MUST TRANSPORT
LIQUOR INTO THIS STATE

Richmond, Va, Jan. 12.-Under an
opinion handed down by the State SUI
preme court Of appeals today, common
carriers will be- compelled to trans
port into North Carolina liquors which
are intended only for personal con-
sumption. The case came up from the
corporation court Of Bristol, Va,
which upheld the Southern express
companE8in dts refusal TO- transport
packages containing liquors from Bris.
|tol into certain cities of North Caro-
Ina. Suit vas entered by the appel
liant, a Bristol liquor distributing COM
psny, against the express company to
compelthes latter to receive and trans
port liquors. Two errors were assign
ed by the Supreme court. 1t was al
legged that.the trial court erred In hold
ing the Webb-Kenyon law to be CON
'stitutional, and If that law be valid, It
vas further alleged, the court erred in
holding the statute of North. Carolina
prohibiting the Importation of liquors
to be within the purview Of the webb
kenyon law, and if the court did err
in this respect, then it was alleged
that the North Carolina state law was
in violation of the Webb-Kenyon law.
The Supreme court did not touch upon
the constitutionality of the Webb
Kenyon law, but pointed out that the
Supreme Court of appeals of North
Carolina had held that the law of that
state applied only to liquor intended
for sale. and was not directed against
liquor intended for personal use. It
held, therefore, that it is not a.
violation OF the law of North Carolina
for a common carrier to receive Tor
transportation liquor meant only for
personal use, and the decision of the
lower court was reversed.

of the Farmers Union decided today
to center the attention of the General
Assembly so far as the union is con-
sCerned upon four big issues, rural
credit system, land segregation or per-
hitting white communities to limit
their land sales to white people, re-
peal of the crop-lien law and a meas
ure for the government of co-opera-
tive enterprises. They will want r.
months time for the application of the
Crop-lien law change. Participating in

Resolutions were adopted urging the
use of the Torrens system of land
title and setting out that whereas
some lawyers are reported to be adj
farmers that such titles cost
800, the fact is. according to Attorney
General Beckett, that the titles should
not cost over SIS, and asking that
farmers patronize lawyers friendly to
the Torrens system.

felt an interest in the monument; that
he, helped to place it on the mountain
and that his father was the man who
found the body of the man to whom
the monument was set up. 5
He said he found the monument in
the same condition it was in last sum-

ton which, had been broken on by the
wind down to where there had been
some gashes made years ago.
Mr.. Wilson said that he and his
brother examined carefully the monu-
mend and the ground all around and
tl.at there was positively not a par
ticle of evidence of dynamite having
been used or any explosion, either at
the base, which is uninjured or at the
break where the section blew of, and
no sign of vandalism except the old
hacks and bullet holes made long ago.
polph Wilson and Joe Wilson are very
positive in their statements and are
both reliable. They are well known

THE EUROPEAN 4

Never before in the worlds wide his,
tory,
Have we read Of such a war;
AS is raging among the nations,
On the far eastern shore.
oh! the horror Of those nations
We in peace can't understand;
Let us thank our God in glory,
For this our peaceful land.
Hear those hungry stricken Belgians,
Help they cry the sea;
They are weak and s-ore-smitten5
Their condition no worse could be.
There are many thousands marching
Rallied by generals at their head,
While they call for patent machines
To dig graves for their dead.
There are terrible long deep bitches
Built as protecting cave,
At the ending Of the battle,
Turned into a soldiery grave.
All, the war blood runs higher,
As they march the bloody plains,
II eading on their comrade brothers
From the enemies hand been slain.
See the brave and daring Germans,
How their blood runs high and hot;
Seek the allies quick destruction
With their sky plans and plots.
Through the allies line rush bravely
Their positions try to take,
Only to encounter danger
And the army annihilate.
The brave and daring infantry,
Their blood care. not to shed, 2
As they march the battle field,
Over their wounded and their dead.
Here the tramping of the stampede
On the firing line they go;
Pack and forth accommodating,
Seeking they a deadly blow.
Hear the heavy cannonading,
How. they massacre tbs cruel;
Meet face to face with foes so doing,
In a deadly artillery duel.
Great bombs like laundering roaring,
Fall on their cities there;
Dropped from a~eroplanes tbs won
derful,
How they glide through the air.
The great rivers Vistula and Watha,
Dam they up with their Dead.
Flowed they once clear as crystal,
Tainted now a crimson red.
With the blood Of many thousands
Whose life has ebbed away:
Oh! what an awful sacrifice
For nations pride and iealously.
There is the trouble in the ocean,
Great mines are planted there;
There is slaughter in the heavens,
For there's war ships in the air.
This great titanic struggle,
When will its slaughtering cease,
When will the nations of the world,
Learn the sweet communion of peace
