THE WORLDS WHEAT CROP

The world was just garnering a
record-breaking crop when the war
broke out two years ago. The sue
ceeding year it got feverishly busy
and did it again. This year there
is a distinct retrocession. The
wheat crop this year is estimated at
$50, 900, 900 bushels less than last
year, OF about IL per cent. This is
enough TO account for the sharp rise
in prices.
Most of the worlds wheat loss IS
accounted for right here in the
United States, which has about
$50, 900, 900 bushels less than in
1915.
Nevertheless, the worlds crop is
larger than the average for the FIVE
years preceding the war. The fact
seems to be that the withdrawal of
vast numbers of Of people from or
binary industry, TO fight, learn to
fight, make munitions and supplies,
is now telling on supplies.
There are likely to be two years
more OF war, according TO the
authorities, though some think a
year may finish it. il will require
long time after peace 10 redistri-
butte the workers TO the most efficient
resumption of normal activities.
So il may reasonably be assumed
that there will be two years more Of
war demand and prices, and after
that a year, two years, or more, of
high prices. Farm and Fireside.

Manufacturing fictitious issues is the arduous
task in which the Republicans find themselves
engaged at present to promote the election Of
their candidate and by which they hope to have
the voters abandon the progressive program Of
the Wilson Administration. They are seem
ing y unaware that in this enlightened age such
crude methods carry but little weight with the
American voter, who judges the future by the
past and lays especial stress upon the immediate
past The voters of the country are thorough
ly cogDizant Of the facts Of the last few years.
They remember the great panic Of 1907, and
they are firm in the conviction that such a state
OF affairs cannot again occur In this country, I'M
less the currency law of the Wilson Admins
tration is abandoned and we revert to the class
legislation and special privilege Of those dark
ages. The farmer knows that under the re-
Gently enacted rural credits law he can borrow
money at small rate Of interest on his farm
lands for long periods and by this manner sue
coed in improving his farm and living more
comfortably, and that the Wilson Administration
is responsible for this desirable step toward fur
thenng his well-beng The American mother,
who daily reads the vivid accounts Of the terri
bic carnage that is engul6ng the fairest portions
Of Europe and extending its vampire wings to
the far east, rejoices that at the head Of our
government is man who, BY the wisdom Of
his course in international affairs, has kept this
country free from the awful scourge Of war.
The American business man realizes that
Under The Wilson Administration this country
has done volume Of business far in excess OF
our most optomistc ambitions. In fact all con-
ditions Of American people are today enjoying
the priceless blessings Of life, liberty and the
pursuit Of happiness under the most favorable
conditions with which this country has ever been
blessed in all the proud years Of our national
growth.

Hyattsville, Md, Sept Il, 1916.
Mr.. H. Winship Wheatley,

Dear Sir
You have called my attention to an article in
publication which is devoted to attacks upon
the Catholic Church. This article asks Protes-
tants to vote for me as Protestant, instead Of
Mr.. Mudd, whose defeat for Congress in the
Fifth Congressional District Of Maryland, is
sought by the paper In question, because he
is reputed to be Catholic.
No friend Of mine ever wrote this article.
Its appeal is contradictory of every principle
which has ever influenced my political action.
| have never voted for or against any man in
primary or general election, or supported him
for any office, because Of his religious affiliations,
and never expect to do SO.
Good citizenship and fitness for office do not,
in my judgment, depend upon mans concep-
ton Of his relation to God. An attempt to
make them so depend is abhorent to me.
repudiate anything which would ally me
with reflection or attack upon any mans reli-
gous faith. denounce as an unfnendly act,
the apparent endorsement Of, but covert attack
upon me- made by the publication referred to
Very sincerely yours,

ACTION DEFERRED0N
COUNTY WARRANTS
Absence From City of Treas
urer Causes Temporary
Delay

Owing to the absence of Treasurer Cleon
B. Rogers. from the city, the warrants
for the 100000 loan from Steiner Brothers
to Jefferson county will not be signed
until tomorrow morning. Treasurer Rog-
ers will be in the city this afternoon
and tomorrow the warrants covering the
100000 loan will be signed by him and
DIR. Lovelady.
The matter of making the $500, 900 loan
has occasioned unusual interest at this
time, owing to the fact that the county
has large cash balance already in
the bank. Much of the criticism against
the board of revenue, provoked by the
loan, has been discounted by the state
ment of President Lovelady, who explain
ed the various legal technicalities of the
finances of Jefferson county. This state
ment showed that by law the revenues OF
the county were divided Anto funds to
be used for certain purposes, and that
the money from one fund could not be
transferred. except from the general fund
to the road fund. With the general and
road funds at low stage at the present
time the loan is declared necessary
despite the fact that total of all the
county funds shows balance of over
s25o,0N in the bank at the present time.
The 100000 loan will be used to meet
preferred claims such as salaries of court
officials and the payment of witness fees

GOOD PROGRESS| IN
ORGANIZATION OF
TROOP Of CAVALRY
Matt Murphy Has Taken
Active Charge of New
Military Organization
and Many Enlist

Matt H. Murphy returned to Birrning-
ham yesterday after having been out Of
the city on a business trip. 1t is under
stood that Mr.. Murphy will be the cap
tain of the troop of cavalry being re-
cruited in Birmingham as a part of the
new cavalry regiment. He conferred with
Sergeants Thach and Gresham in charge
of the recruiting Immediately upon his
return to the city, and stated that he
was highly pleased with the progress
made.
Mr.. Murphy said that prospects were
bright for the cavalry troop and that
he expected to have it up to full strength
in a short time. A number of enlistments
have already been made, and the work
of recruiting the men will be pushed
for the next few days
A recruiting office was opened yester-
day at the city hall. Sergeant Gresham,
who is assisting in the work, spent yes
terday in Bessemer putting the recruiting
plans into operation.
From a communication received by
Captain Murphy from Colonel Steiner
the indications were that the cavalry
could be organized whether the troops
now in Montgomery were sent west or
not.
Maj Ben Chapman. mastering officer
for the cavalry probably will return to
Birmingham today from Albertville,
where he went to muster a troop.
