Rome, Aug. 24-The United Press was
authorized today by the Papal Secretary of
State to make the following statement:
''The first two points in the Pontifcal ap-
peak for peace, treating respectively of dis

Senate

he confines himself to expressing the wish

as far as possible, any just aspirations of the

The Pope Comes Over TO ssThe
JefferSOnian'S" View
What Will the President and the
:. Catholics Do Aa90gt HI?

y
Catholics Do Aaoz4t Ht7
OUR readers will remember that Il called
attention last week to the fact that the
Pope has now taken the position occupied by
the President just previous to his sudden and
tremendous lf-reversal.
The Pope bases his appeal for peace upon
tAe Presidents address to the Senate, few
lnunths ago.
The Pope calls upon those eminent states
men and editors who endorsed the President
then, to endorse the papal plea, 1000.
What reply shall we make to the Papa?
He very neatly puts the Wilson war
whoopers in hole.
He says that the statesmen and publicists
who endorsed the President, few months
ago, must now endorse the Vatican's plea,
or contradict themselves
Isn't that what The Jefers0ndan said, last
weekg 49,
Is there any getting round it?
The Pope says that Belgium should be re-
stored and Unidentified. The German Chan
cellor promised that, in open session Of the
Reichstag, three gears ago. -:
The Pope also says that no nation can by
force OF arms, impose upon any other nation
form Of permanent government which that
nation disapproves.
4 Isn't that what The yeferaonion said?
The Pope appeals to history, in support of
his contention: so did THE Je0erson5on.
Has anybody tried to refute TIE Jefer-
sons0as No.
The paper can be suppressed, but it cannot
be refuted.
The Pope's position is stronger: he can
neither be suppressed nor refuted.
want yoNto read what the Pope says, and
then you will begin to realize better how the
sane views I have tried to impress upon our
people have taken possession of other heads,

temperate councils to the seats of the mighty
Christendom is committing suicide, while
Buddhism and Confucianis1n look on, COM

Civilization is going back to barbarism, and
the inherited treasures of humanity-won by
enormous effort and sacrifce-arS being cast

woodrow Wilson was eminently correct when
he said in his book, that the Presidential
power was anything the President chose tc
make 1T, 1t he were a person of force and
sagacity.
President Wilson seems to be the very man
that Doctor Wilson had in his mind. at the
time he wrote the said prophetic passage ID
his said book; and if anybody can tell me
what Congress now exists for, except to regis
ter the Presidential villas the clock regis
tiers the time OF day-I really would like to
listen.
So you see, am re-learning law; and at
happy. 81
AS to Religion, the same new doctrine is
upon us; and we are now told by the clerical
Hlgh-brows that we have never understood
the case.
1t now seems that Christ came to manage
Caesars business for Caesar, and to bring
Caesar a sword with which to massacre Chris
tlans throughout the earth.
The angel-song of Bethlehem is myth:
no heavenly singers heralded the coming of
Peace and Good Will among men: let us for
get all the sermons we ever heard preached
upon that beautiful conception.
Abolish the Golden Rule: it is mere .acad-
emlc altrulsm, having no place in the hard
actu@latfes of life: blot from your memories
the noble exhortations you have heard from
your youth up exhortations that rang in
trumpet tones from inspired lips and touched
the better chords of your own soul with pro-
found emotion.
Blot out the Sermon on the Mount It
has no place in the Bedlam that RACES now.
We no longer heed Prince of Peace: we
have changed our Christ into Pagan god
of War.
Instead Of Calvary, and its sacrifice for
humanity sunk IN sordidness, we have re-
created Olympus and re-colonized it with di
whites that cry for human blood.
The halls Of Odin never rang with fercer
clanor for war, rapine, and monstrous Brute
Force than do the halls Of Congress.
Every fundamentally known to modern
progress is pressed into service, to goad the
people into ungoyernab1e madness for war

street signs, the magazines, the newspapers.

and eohach may subside as suddenly as 1T
arose.
But let the soldier have his Bible: he will
read it, no doubt
In kindness, however, the President should
tell the soldier what particular passages he
should peruse, before he shoots the Bible
reader on the other side, or gets shot by said
brother Bible'student, as the case may be.

baccO market was made Monday when
basket Of Jugs grown by Mr. Will S
Judy, Of Bourbon county, brought the
high price of $50. The entire crop

his tobacco brought at the Lexington
sales. The seed from which the crop
was raised has been called "Judy's
Pride" and is in great demand.

LAST SALE OF SEASON
AT TOBACCO HOUSES

No sales we're held at the local
houses yesterday, and the last sales Of
the season will be held to-day wher
the Bourbon expect 20 "clean up" the
remainder of the marketable crop of
Bourbon county tobacco.
The season has been remarkably
good one for both growers and sellers
and the proceeds of the sales have
put in circulation a large amount OF
money i'm the city and county. The
local houses have been at all times
amply able to take care of the crop
and have obtained some of the very
best averages of any market in the
States.
Here's hoping next season may
prove equally as prosperous for all
concerned.
