Late Deputy Armez Finally Consented
to the Burial of CHASTITY
Relic.

Paris.-M. Armez, deputy from the
department of the Cotes du Nord, who
just died at Plourivo, was formerly
custodian OF the head of Cardinal
Richelieu. This relic came into the
possession Of the Armez family during
the revolution, following the desecra-
ton of the tomb OF the great minister
of Louis XIII.
The skull was preserved during
three generations in box bearing the
label pate of Starsburg," to distract
attention from its great importance.
Inside were parchments establishing
the identity of the relic.
M. Armez was prevailed upon to part
with his important deposit about 30
years ago In favor of the state, and
Richelieu's skull was solemnly inferred

of the strongest family residences in
England. 1t lies seven miles from the
little town Of Rlngwood, on the Hamp-

three miles. Originally turf cutters
cottage stood on the site, and this the

he put up other buildings. until the

The fortitude of Bedouin women on
the march is traditional. On the long
"hadj," or march, TO Mecca, over the
hot sands their suffering is intense /;
yet they keep the pace, do all the
work, bear children on the way, and
arrive when the brave" men do. SO
great is the physical courage of these

Mr.. Hicks, that a supply of coal en-
tirely adequate to meet all of the
states needs will be sent here direct
from the hard coal fields or Pennsyl-
vania, which furnishes practically all
OF the anthracite coal used in the
country.
No Strings on Pledge.
According to Mr. Hicks, Fuel Ad-
ministrator Garfield in his promise
made no stipulation or condition "
any sort, save as to the method coal
dealers are to employ in bringing
about distribution OF the coal, and
this is simple.
Under details worked out by Mr..
Hicks and the national fuel admins
tration's anthracite division, Michi-
gan's coal dealers, to obtain what coal
they need, must apply to State Fuel
Administrator Prudden, at Lansing,
giving first the amount OF coal need
ed, and then the name of their source
of supply in 1916.
With this information in hand,
Mr.. Prudden, acting under authority
from National Fuel Administrators
Garfield, will see to it that the dealer
is supplied through the same source
from which he obtained his supply last
year
Railroads viii Cooperate.
When asked if the railroad compa-
MES and other distributors and sources
of supply would comply with the ma

Mr. Hicks said:
Eyes, that phase of the matter is
covered fully under DR.. Garfield's
authority. Coal companies must obey
his instructions. If they do not, DR..
Garfield is empowered to find way
to make them"
Mr.. Hicks said that, following his
conference with DR.. Garfield, he talked
with many OF the larger coal operators
in the east, and found them, without
exception, entirely willing to cooper
ate with the government.

Presents Grave Problem.

1t was pointed out that should these
negotiations be successful, it would
be most difficult to deal with Russia
as a neutral country, in view of the
position she has held as an ally of the
nations fighting Germany and the
marked advantage in the war that
such course might give the latter
country.
Ambassador Francis has been given
no instructions to deal with the Boil
shevik government. In reporting to
the state department on the peace
move, he made it clear that he had
been advised that the Soviet congress
had adopted a resolution instructing
generals at the front to enter into ne
gotiations at once with the German
commanders relative to a three
months armistice, with instructions to
report to the congress.
Ambassador Francis's disaptch, dat
ed November FL, dispels any hope OK
strengthening of Russia's resistance
unless the Bolshevik government
should be quickly overthrow by a
counter revolution.

Parents Are Responsible.

There seems to be a State law
holding parents responsible for the
criminal misdeeds of their child
rem. We judge this to be fact
from the following, which appear
ed in a recent issue of the Times
Picayune:
The first case to come to trial
under the delinquency act passed
by the Legislature in 1916 was
disposed of by Judge Wilson in
the Juvenile Court Thursday. 1t
was that of Oslo Cooper. father of
Irwin Cooper, who was charged
with the delinquency of his son.
About three weeks ago Irwin
Cooper, aged IL, while operating
an automobile, ran into and in
jured Morris Wei-z in st Charles
Avenue. Mr. Weisz subsequently
died of his Injuries Assistant
District Attorney Steanley filed an
information in the Juvenile Court
against Oslo Cooper, who lives at
142l Fern street, charging him
with permitting his son to drive
the machine.
Mr.. Cooper called at the Juve-
nile Court and expressed his regret
concerning the accident, and plea
ded that he knew nothing of the
law prohibiting children under Is
years of age driving machines.
This being the first case, Judge
Wilson fined Mr.. Cooper but $25
or one month in Jail.
1t is understood to be the inten-
ton of the police authorities and
the district attorneys Office to en-
force the delinquency act by which
parents will be held for permitting
their children to violate any law,
particularly that prohibiting chill
dren under Is years of age from
driving any sort of vehicle.

There Is: A Remedy.

How long will our people sub
NIT to being held up by a coterie
of so-called statesmen who know
no more about political economy
than so many eighth grade school
boysp Under Protective Tariff
our national treasury was always
full and running over, and our
own people were not bled for any
thing by the government. Ample
revenue, and some to spare, was
paid into our natl nal Golfers from
abroad as a Tariff on foreign
goods shipped to our ports. But
not so now. All is changed. Our
own people are being heavily tax
ed to raise money for war expendi-
lures, while foreigners who send
goods to our market are required
to pay little or nothing.
There is remedy, and it is The
reenactment of Protective Tariff
law. This can be- done in one way,
and in one way only. The Free
Trade Tariff crowd now in charge
of the government must be retired
to private life, and some real
statesmen elected in their stead.
Let the people see to it that every
man they send to either house of
Congress next fall is a Protection
list, and the trick will be turned.
Then the good old days will return
and our people will be prosperous
and happy.
