marketing Of wheat in the Middle

When the government fixed the
price of No. wheat at 1920 a bush
ell, Chicago delivery. it also deter
mined on new system of grading,
which, according to the delegates from
the Middle West, does not altogether
suit the farmers. At the Office Of the
Grain Division, AZ Broadway, it was
said that Uncle Sam refused TO pay
for smut" and dirt in wheat, and
this was what riled the farmers, whose
wheat in the past has been sold by
samples. Just what was the outcome
Of the conference with Mr.. Barnes was
not announced. II was said that the
difference probably would be amicably
adjusted.

Attorney General to Decide
Conflict Between Food
and Revenue Laws
Hopes of Supply From
Abroad Are Dashed
Great Quantities of Alec
holic Beverages Stored
Here Will Be Affected

WASHINGTON, Oct, 20. - Instruc-
tons 10 all customs collectors through
out the country to admit TO entry dis
TILED spirits produced abroad prior to
October last, "either for beverage
purposes or for other than beverage
purposes" we're made public and re-
called within the space Of few hours
to-day by the Treasury Department.
The issuance of the instructions
which were sent out by Assistant Sec
rotary Rowe last Saturday, was based
upon an Interpretation Of the food and
revenue laws given by Lawrence
Becker. solicitor Of the Treasury De-
psrtment.
Mr.. Becker ruled that the revenue
law approved October s repealed pro-
visions of the previously enacted food
control law, which fatty prohibited the
importation of distilled spirits. Now
the question has been placed before
the Attorney General for decision.
and in the meantime the food law pro-
hibition remains IN effect.
Conflicting Laws
That section Of the food law passed
August 10. after prohibiting the manu-
facture Of distilled beverages in this
country. says:
"Nor shall there be imported into the
United States any distilled spirits
Section sol OF the revenue law,
passed nearly two months later, pro-
vdes:
THAT no distilled spirits produced
after the passage OF this act shall be
imported into the United States from
any foreign country or from the West
In lian islands recently acquired from
Denmark, unless produced from prod.
ucts OF the growth Of such islands, ana
no. then into any state or territory or
district Of the United States in which
the manufacture or sale of intoxicat-
in, llauor is prohibited, or from Porto
Rico or the Philippine Islands
Joker" in the Law
Mr.. Becker held that the words pro
duced after the passage OF this act
in the revenue law, in effect, permitted
the admission to entry of spirits dis
titled prior TO the enactment OF the
act. Instructions. consequently, we're
addressed to all collectors advising
them to permit the importation Of dis
titled spirits produced abroad prior to
October 80.
To-day these instructions were re-
called. high officials of the department
taking the stand that the question was
one Of such magnitude that Attorney
General Gregory should pass upon 1t,
The effect Of the decision OF the
solicitor would be 70 make available
for importation and consumption hero
she great store Of whiskey,. cordials,
liqueurs and other distilled beverages
produced abroad prior TO the enactment
Of the revenue law. 1t also would per.
NIT importation Of spirits distilled
from virgin island products either be-
fore or after the revenue bill became
law.
No effort was made at the Custom
House yesterday to enter any distilled
LIQUORS. Il Is understood that orders
will be sent from the Treasury Depart
ment to Collector Newton to-day TO
hold all spirituous beverages pending
the decision of the Attorney General.

must pay high tribute to the leader
and all the members Of the Chamber
Of Commerce Band. No set OF fellows
ever did more work on such q trip.
They surely we're not slsckers on their
Job at any time or place. Whatever
their pay, they did not get more than
they earned. We've got to hand it to
them.
At $50 one OF the finest chicken

Along about this time several inn
portant arrests were made of number
of the prominent Beaver citizens.
They were forced to give some monkey
shine performance, such as jumping
the stick, doing the tango and the
jelly wabble. Cheers roared from the
crowd in the street.-Demoerat.

DECORATION pAY.

Decoration Day was observed in
Beaver this year with the usual spirit
Of deep patriotism and respect for
those who valiantly defended their
country in time OF peril. A large
crowd was on hand TO pay their tribute
Of respect and the floral decorations
were most elaborate. plenty OF beauti-
full flowers being provided for zach
soldiers grave. Other graves in our
City of the Dead we're also beautifully
garlanded.
The exercises at the cemetery, con-
Quoted by the Old Soldiers. were brief
after (which the Old Boys marched
among the graves of their comrades,
preceded and>followed by a band of
little girls and boys, who scattered
flowers in their way and upon the
graves OF those who had answered the
last Roll Call and were sleeping under
the sod awaiting reveille Soon Taps
will have sounded for the last wearer
OF the Blue. Their thin and broken
ranks yesterday brought this sad fact
keenly to the minds of all who obsery-
ed their tottering footsteps but
though few more years may find the
Boys in Blue no longer with US, they
will live on forever for their children
and their children's children will not
forget their valor and will honor and
cherish their memory.
The exercises at the church in the
afternoon were most inspiring and
we're attended by crowd which taxed
the capacity Of the building. The ad-
dress OF the day by A. L. Drummond,
son Of Comrade I. s. Drummond, was
one which filled the hearts Of all who
heard it with deep feelings OF emotion
and sacred regard. He paid q most
fitting tribute to the defenders Of Our
Country and his remarks we're just the
kind that one would expect to hear
from loyal Son Of Veteran, whose
blood was fired with zeal and patriot
ism. Music for the afternoon was
furnished by the orchestra and choral
club. 1t was splendid as usual but. il
seemed on this occasion special effort
must have been made, for the air fairly
rang with melody. Other numbers OF
the program were good too. Alto
gether it WAS just what one might ex.
pect at this stirring time when the
hearts and thoughts Of every true
American is throbbing with love OF
country and reverence for those who
made possible Old Glory and the
principles for which the Star Spangled
Banner stands.
