saying he could not talk about any
question affecting the movement or dis
position of troops.
Secretary Lansing of the State De-

subject beyond the fact that the Rus

dietary committee today to protest
against the enactment into law of the
administration bill which would give
the President power to designate GER
tain areas in which it would be unlaw-
full to trespass or to loiter.
While the bill, according to a letter
written by Secretary Baker of the War
Department, is designed merely to give
greater protection to munitions fac
tories and arsenals during the war. the
women insisted that Its terms We're so
general that it would enable the Presi-

Rebuke for Reed Amendment.

Davis nomination is also taken as a
rebuke to the Reed bone-dry amend
ment- Virginia voted itself dry, allow
ing certain importations for personal
use. Along came the Reed law and
even that importation was stopped In
the city of Alexandria. which has felt
the Reed law very severely, Davis got
more votes than both his opponents
combined.
The result of the nominating vote,
while amazing to some of the old-liae
politicians who supported the "organi-
eaton candidate, is more of a jolt to
the Anti-Saloon League than to the
machine"
1t does not mean disintegration of
the machine. nor does it mean that
there VIII be any attempt to displace
the present state leader, Senator Mar
tin. 1t will, of course, mean that mem
oers OF the Senate and House will begin
70 pay strict attention to matters at
home, and will have their ears to the
ground, politically speaking, for months
to come.

Surprise to the Politicians.

Virginia politicians in Washington
today are rubbing their eyes as If an
earthquake had shaken them. and all
because the democrats of Virginia have
turned down the Anti-Saloon League
and the old-time state democratic ma
chine" and have chosen Westmoreland
Davis. the farmers choice" by 10000
votes.
Davis did not run on a liquor plat
form, but was placed in the wet column
by the Anti-Saloon League on the
ground that he would not answer GER
tain specific questions put to him by
their leaders.
At the Capitol the nomination of
Davis, which is equivalent to election,
is taken to be a rebuke to the Anti
Saloon League. This is not an indica-
ton that the state wants to swing back
into the wet colmn, but more of hint
to the Anti-Saloon League not to enter
into Virginia politics to the extent
which has recently marked its career.

BREAD CARDS FOR PARIS;
FRENCH CROPS SHORT

PARIS. August 9.-The impeding
bread cards which will be introduced
in Paris. probably in October. will be
necessitated in part by the unprece-
dented bad weather prevailing during
the last several weeks.
According to an official announce
ment the deficit in the crop. which the
weather we have been having has
augmented, does not permit France
any more than any other country, to
fail to take the most minute precau-
tions if the year 1911-1S is to be
passed without a crisis"

Lester Lahmon Faces Trip
To Lancaster
2 OTHERS IMPLICATED
M. p. Martin Robbed OF Glover Seed
BY Three Young Lads Who
Later Dispose OF Same
And Distribute The
Proceeds

Lester Lahm0n, who has hanging
over his head suspended sentence to
the boys Industrial school at Lancas-
ter, and Alva Latham were placed un-
der arrest Thursday by Sheriff Moss
holder and Deputy Lytle on a charge
Of stealing clover seed. and later dis
posing of the same to local dealer,
from the barn of Milton p. Martin on
Saturday evening, Feb. II.
Lahmon Is Is years of age and La
than 10, although both look older.
The former resides south of Mt. Yer
nono off the Kinney road, while the
latter lives near Five Corners. Both
have admitted their guilt.
The arrests were made on the COM
plant of MIR. Martin who learned,
through the Mt, Vernon dealer, that
the two boys had sold the seed, fol-
lowing his discovery that the same
was missing.
The boys are cousins. A third lad
is said to have been implicated. Ac-
cording to the story Of Latham, he
met the Lahmon boy and the other
lad driving into Mt. Vernon that night
and was asked to go with them. They
| proceeded into the city and sold a
l00Ib sack OF clover seed, it is said,
for $l1.50. The Lahmon and Latham
boys are said to have taken $5 apiece
and given the third lad $1.50 which
Is all he wanted, according to the
story.
There is another story to the eff
feet that the third boy and the La
than lad drove out from Mt. Vernon
and met the l.ahmon boy, who sug
gested that they take the clover seec
and sell II, to which the other!
agreed
| The Lahmon family resides on tn,
NJ. u. Martin farm and the seed wa
stored In the barn on their place.
officials expect that the Lahmol
boy will be sent to Lancaster to serV
his suspended sentence which was in
posed for Juvenile delinquency.

Among all of Americas mighty re-
sources that can be called upon in
case of war, none will count for more
than the inventive genius of her citi-
zens. In this line she surpasses any
nation in this world, and if forced in
to the world-war it is believed that
her master mechanics and scientists
would bring inventions and discoveries
that would insure victory for the cause
in which their talents are enlisted.
Thomas Edison's genius is of such
value that at times like these he is
closely guarded. In his class Ashland
county is proud to have man like
Charles f. Kettering, formerly of Lou
donville, whose inventive genius has
already earned for himself great for
tune and renown in the electrical
world. His inventions were the basis
of the great Delco works of Dayton.
O., and a part of this great industry
he recently sold at a figure that makes
him many times millionaire. With
his partner, Mr.. Deeds, he has retained
the Delco house illuminating device,
that promises to grow into as great "a
business as the Delco starter.
A factory for this line of work is
ow being erected near Dayton, o.,
that will cover seven acres, making
it the largest single factory in the
United States. With the erection of
this plant has gone the purchase of
$500 acres OF land ON which modern
town will be built to afford homes to
the employees. A thousand houses are
II, W under construction and other fac
advantages of the new location. Mr..
I<ettering's own palatial home over
looks this new industrial center.
Mr.. Kettering has lately turned his
attention to the aviation field and sew
eral new inventions, it is said, will be
valuable additions to that now import
ant branch of military service. Mr.
Kettering was in New York attending
an aviation conference called to make
available their services to the govern
ment. At their pant in Dayton a
number og experiments are being
made. One of Americas most skilled
aviators is employed to make practical
tests, and Mr. Ketlering made several
ascents himself. Upon recent visit
to Ashland, the home of his wife's
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. A. II. Williams
he said he thought his next visit
/, would be made in a flying machine
and that was not idle talk when one
