SPIES LINK MEX|-
: \ CO WITH BERLIN
ambassador Fletcher Will
81 Urge Garranza To
Take Steps
AGAINST AGENTS VIOLATING
Who Are Violating Neutrality OF
Southern Republic On His
= Arrival in Mexico.

Washington, July $3.50 numer-
Gus have become the reports Of Ger
man spy activities and propaganda in
Mexico that Ambassador Fletcher is
prepared upon his arrival at Mexico
City to call the attention of the Mex
lean government to the links in that
country between Berlin and German
agents in the United States.
Officials Of the State Department
do not call into question the integrity
of the Mexican government, but the
reports have left no room to doubt
the existence of German organiza-
ton in Mexico whose Vaccinations
may be defined as a violation of Mex
ico's neutrality. The Carranza gov
eminent is believed in fact to be dis
turbed by the abuse of its hospitality,
and there is feeling here that the
time is not far distant when certain
representatives in Mexico of the Ger
man Foreign Office may be officially
questioned as to their activities.
How extensive the work of the
German agents has been forwarding
information to Germany by mail or
other means has not been ascertained
by American agents, but evidence of
their tireless activity in propaganda
has been produced. When Carl Hy-
nenfwas arrested a few weeks ago on
the charge of spy activities in the
United States it was not known that
his work extended TO Mexico, but
since then evidence has been produc-
ed to indicate that he was very init
mately connected with the German
spy system and that the men who
formerly reported to him are contin-
uing their efforts.

MISS MARGARET MCDOWELL
HAS NARROW ESCAPE

Sulphur Springs Specially
AS they were returning home from
Sulphur Springs late Sunday evening
Mr.. Sam Mcdowell and sisters Misses
Jennie May and Margaret, happened
to AN accident that came very near
being fatal to Miss Magaret. On 60
ing down a hill Walker Carter drove
his buggy too close to theirs and
struck it and turned it over and Sam
and Miss Jennie May fell out but
Miss Margaret became entangled in
the braces of the top of the buggy
and the horse ran down the hill and
drug her quite a distance. Finally
the harness broke and turned the
horse loose and in all probability
saved her life. She sustained several
bruises about the head, arms and
side. She was able, however, to be
taken home in Mr.. Carter's buggy,
their buggy being badly wrecked.
They are the son and daughters of
Mr.. Richard Mcdowell, a highly re-
spected farmer of the victory sec
tion, and we hope that Miss Marga-
ret will soon recover.

Washington, July 29.-America

cause of it's superior resources md
through the ability of the American
people to organize. Tn. success, IL
ready evident of the Nations volua-
tary food conservation effort, Mr..
Hoover said. points TO g final VIC
tory.
Germany accomplished less in this
direction in twelve months" said Mr..
Hoover, "than our people have il,
four. The only need Of legislation
and authority is to curb those who
would profit by this voluntary move
ment."
More than 100000 women. Mr..
Hoover announced, have enrolled as
members oe the food administration
and pledged themselves to follow it's
directions as to saving food within
the household. Within sixty days,
he said. many more millions will
have become members.
No one can rightly be gloomy over
the outcome for the American people
in this war;" said Mr.. Hoover. "Suc-
cess in this war is a question of re-
sources, and the will and ability of
the people to organize themselves to
use them rightly and to endure.
Many thinking Americans and the
whole world has been watching anx-
iously the last four months in the
fear that democratic America could
not organize to meet autocratic Ger
many. Germany has been confident
that it could not be done.
People Show Ability.
Contrary proof is Immediately at
our door. and our people have al
ready demonstrated their ability to
mobilize, organize, endure and pre-
pare voluntarily and efficiently in
many directions and upon a mere
world of inspiration aside from the
remarkable assemblage of our army
and finances"

POST EXCHANGE PLANS
Building For That Purpose To Be
Erected At Cantonment By
Lee l., Robinson.

Washington, July 30.-A building
is being or will be erected at the
Louisville-and each other cantonment,
to be known as post exchange.
Each regiment at the Louisville
cantonment will have it's own Coop
erative buying organization, privileg-
ed to use the post exchange. Both
officers and enlisted men will have
the privilege of belonging to this CO.
operative organization, and they will
chip in to the extent of the ability
and desire of each in forming fund
with which to buy the first supplies,
the profits being expected to provide
a fund for renewal purposes later.
Each officer or enlisted man will have
credit at the exchange, charges to be
taken out of his salary when due.
They will be able to buy at frac-
tion above cost. An extensive line of
goods will be handled, those goods to
be bought, as a rule, from local
wholesalers. In addition, the War
Department probably will grant con-
cessions to outsiders to run stores
within cantonment grounds under
certain conditions.
Regulations governing granting
and control of these concessions are
now being drawn up by the depart
ment.

ALL CANDIDATES ~>
FEEL SANGU|NE
On Eve OF Primary-"Beating
The Brush" In the Final
Drive.

Three more days in which to see
the voters of Ohio county before the
primary, the candidates for the va
rious county offices are up early and
cheating the brush" in the final
roundup of votes.
Every candidate feels sure of be-
ing nominated by his party, but there
is one thing absolutely certain, and
that is that they can't all be chosen
in the opening trial dash to face the
barrier for the derby run in Novem-
Der.
In the trial dash the Republicans
have eleven sprinters in the race for
the nomination for Jailer. an even
half dozen for COUNT Judge, three
for Representative, three for Sheriff,
two each for County Court Clerk and
Superintendent of Schools. while
their entries for COUNTY Attorney,
Assessor and Coroner have'no oppo-
sition. They are so closely punched
in the races where there are as many
as two starters, that as they near the
three-quarter pole it is hard for one
to tell without "feld glasses') who
has the INSIDE" rail. One might,
however, take one of the starters IN
each race and play him straight
through the board" and get in the
money.
Only two of the races in the Demo-
cratic trial dash are to be "run OUT
two starters in the sprint for the
nomination for County Judge and
four for the office of Jailer. The en-
tries for the other COUNT offices are
unopposed and will not face the bar
rier. (Those without opposition in
either party not going on the ballot.)
Nearly everyone admits that it is a
"hoss race" between several of the
Republican entries flor several of the
offices) in the opening dash. but
fleet-footedness of the material Of
both the Democratic and Republican
parties will be put to the test in No
vember. when the derby is to be run,
and we are inclined to. the opinion
that this will be SOME "hoss race"
