TOBACCO CROP LARGE.
Lynchburg Sales for Last Fiscal
Year Show Big Increase.

LYNCHEUEG. Va, July 3.-The fiscal
year of the local tobacco market closed
with the coming of July and sales have
been suspended until September /. The
sales for the tobacco year for the 1915
crop aggregated 12.663.30O pounds. an
increase of $4,000 pounds over the
previous year.
The quality of the tobacco was hard
ly up to the standard. but the demand
for it was good all through the year
and the prices realized were considered
fairly satisfactory for the tobacco.
In 1914 and 1915 the farmers were
seriously handicapped in getting the
crops out by spring droughts, but such
condition has not prevailed this
spring. The weather conditions for
two months have been ideal for the
crop and 1t is believed the acreage cut
this spring is the largest in some years
in the Lynchburg district.

LIGHT WINE FOR RUSSIANS.
Prohibition Bill Passed by Duma
noes Not Prohibit Entirely.

PETROGRAD, July 2. via London,
July s.-The prohibition bill passed by
the duma, which, on first analysis, was
generally interpreted as embracing all
kinds of alcoholic drinks. now has
been found to contain an unpublished
clause which makes an exception of
wines not containing more than IL per
cent of alcohol. The bill as originally
published would have meant ruin for
the immense vineyard interests of
south Russia, the Crimea and the eau
casus.
Sales of the excepted wines will be
permitted in wine-producing districts
and in towns in other regions except
where local option declares otherwise.

PRESIDENT GETS OFFER
BY DEMOCRATIC WOMEN

President Wilson this afternoon
executive board of the Woman's Demo-
cratic League, headed by Mrs. w. A.
Cullop, president of the organization.
Those present were Mrs. Cullop, Mrs
Mary c. Adams. Mrs. Joseph H. Max
well, Mrs. Grace Porter Hopkins. Mrs
John E. Raker. Mrs. f. T. Taylor and
Mrs. F. B. Moran. The President was
informed that the organization wishes
to take part in his reelection: has
voted $1,000 to the campaign fund and
stands ready to do whatever it can to
bring about his return to the White
House.
The President expressed pleasure at
hearing from the organization.
All the members of the committee
except Mrs. Moran. told the President
that they felt that he would be re-
turned to office, and did not talk of
woman suffrage in any form.
Urged to Change Suffrage Views.
Mrs. Moran remained with the Presi-
dent after the others had gone. With a
copy of the Suffragist in her hand. she
eoiu tho that sue was an cH-
voy from the western women to say
that there is much feeling in the west
against the democratic party. because
1t has not given women the constitu-
tional right to vote, as has been re-
quested and urged in Congress
She urged the President to reconsider
the states rights view as to suffrage.
and come out for suffrage. Mrs. Moran
feared, she said, that the President
would lose many votes in the west
unless he changed his mind.
The other visitors expressed regret
that the subject of suffrage had bten
infested, and stated that the object of
their call was far from taking up this
matter with the President. They were
not responsible. as officers of the or
ganization. for the individual views Of
one person.

Mr.. HUGHES IS PLANNING
TRIP TO PACIFIC COAST

BRIDGEHAMPTON, \. Y, July g.
Plans for the forthcoming trip to the
Pacific coast engaged the attention of
Charles E. Hughes today. Mr.. Hughes
expects to prepare in advance most of the
ten or twelve speeches he will deliver on
this trip and to limit them to 1000 or
200 words apiece. 1t is likely that in
addition to his prepared speeches the
nominee will discuss at each city where
he speaks issues of peculiar local inter
est The main addresses. however. prob
ably will be we'll in hand a week before
he starts on the trip-the second week in
August.
Tentative Outline of Topics.
Preparedness and the administration s
foreign policy. particularly with reference
to Mexico. will be the chief subjects dis
cussed on the trip unless present plans are
altered The nominee made it plain to
callers today that he does not intend to
make the campaign one of personalities.
The present prosperity of the country
also will be discussed.
The nominee is considering an itln-
erary that will provide for set speeches
TO be made at Chicago, st. Louis. Kan
sas City. ST Paul or Minnea polls Seat
tie. Portland, Ore: San Francisco, pos
sibly Los Angeles and several other
cities in the territory traverseJ
Plans Two-Week Respite.
The program under consideration pro-
vides for break of two weeks to be
spent somewhere in the Rocky noun
tains. This would afford Mr. Hughes
an opportunity to enjoy his favorite
pastime of mountain climbing.
Altogether the trip would last from
five to six weeks. 1t would be made
by regular trains and would bring the
nominee back to the east, ready for
what he expects to be "a whirlwind
campaign" the latter part of Septem-
Der.
While the plan has not been matured.
it is Mr.. Hughes present intention to
go to the coast by the northern route
and probably return by the southern.
The nominee will discuss the proposed
journey Wednesday in New York with
Chairman William r. Wilcox of the
national committee, who now is work
ing on campaign plans.
