While America is most heartily in
sympathy with the proposed Russian
republic and hopes to see it established
along liberal lines. the fact remains
that the movement is meeting with
many kinds OF opposition.
What the real outcome of the Rus

to be seen. but Americans will contin.
ue to hope and lend such aid as is pos
sible to the proposed republic.

the other monarchies, which have al
ready adopted more liberal form OF
government, and only keep their kings
for the same reason that,a child keeps
her doll after she has outgrown it, will
surely follow their example.
While monarchles still cast their
shadow across the progress of man,
there will be intrigue and war; and
only the birth of a world wide republic
will bring ABOUT lasting peace.

THE STA r OF HOPE

Two years ago it seemed inconceiv
able that the present war, brutal anc
mercenary as it is, could effect the
world IN any way that was not degrad
ing and evil. 1t smeed that the world
had turned backward for the period OF
thousand years, and that all progress,
all that man has built up in that time,
was lost in bloodshed and brutality.
But now through the war S travail,
over the milliens OF dead bodies that
seemed to have been offered up to the
god of mammon is born star OF hope.
Although shining dlmly through the
wars black cloud, it has penetrated the
hearts of the millions of creatures.
created in the image of God, and yet
reduced to the level of cattle By the
plague of autocracy-the peasants of
Russia.
Along with the rumor OF battles lost
and won comes the report of what,
three years ago would have seemed a
0ne of the greatest people IN
the world born from state bordering
on serfdom to manhood-the dim, I'M
attaInable dream of ages realized in
teW hours with out the loss of a single
life. Anu We are not surprised. 1t
has barely caused a comment
But we now see the star. As surely
as Russia has followed this star to her
freedom, SO surely will the Kaiser.

board is a sample of the most extreme

OUR BREAD SUPPLY.

Gloomy reports come fro.i some &c
lions of the wheat-growiuE region OF
the UnItot States. The crop IN thu
southern hemisphere is almost one
third less than normal, winch mean,
we need hope for none fro.d that par
of the world.
At this time wide sections in Okla
homa and Texas are suffering for wan
of rain. While these two states are
not among the largest wheat producers,
they do furnish many millions of bush
els of bread food. There have been
strong requests made upon the wheat
growing sections to put in all the spring
wheat possible but in the face Of ex-
listing conditions no very great relief is
expected from that source.
SO gloomy is the general outlook that
wheat has been selling in the Chicago
wheat pit for close to 81. 40 a bushel.
That means flour at So. SO for "a pounds
unless the market falls.
: While little wheat is grown in this
county, there are some ways in which
our people can help out the bread sup
ply, provided they make an energetic
effort: Where rye is worth leaving
tor grain, do so, and save every bushel
possible. Increase your corn crop to
the UTMOST and then sow buckwheat IN
the corn and on other ground where
possible. These three ways, if pushed
with yigor, will very materially help
the people in this section.
The government has served notice on
the south that instead of getting $780,
900. 600 in food stuffs from the west
this year as IN the past. the western
surplus must go to feed the army and
the allies. That means that the south
MUST produce its bread or suffer.
This section will surely do splendid
part in producing potatoes and there is
no good reason why we would not do
large part in supplying our needed
bread foods. That is not only a patrl-
otto part that confronts Us, but it is
pressing necessity, and our people
should recognize the fact and act with
all possible energy to meet the de-
mand. We believe they will.

ID INCREASE HOG PRODUCTION

Farmers From Three States Confer With Government
 Representative

Memphis, Nov. 21.-Bankers and agricultural experts from Arkansas, Tennessee and Mississippi, conferred here today with Dr. Tait Butler an accredited representative of the live stock branch of the United States food administration in an effort to in- crease the production of hogs. Reso- lutions readopted endorsing the food administration recommendations to increase the output of hogs, and pledging their best efforts to secure a larger food supply of all kinds. The bankers and commercial organiza- tions, thru their representatives at the meeting. agreed to extend finan- cial assistance to farmers in the pur- chase of breeding hogs.
 Arkansas quota of increase," said e. w. Watson, superintendent of state agents in Arkansas, who was present, sis fixed at 20 per cent. The states hog production at present is in the neighborhood of 1,760,000 head, which would bring the production up to 2,- 1OO,O ,OOO head.

OFFICERS AFTER

Sheriff Williams received notice to- day of the escape from the convict farm of Richard Settles, negro who was imprisoned for life on 2 convic- tion of murder. Details of the es- cape were not forthcoming, but it is presumed that Settles took adavant- age of being in the open and managed to elude his guards. The authorities have used the wires freely and sent out notice in every direction, besides, one or more of the deputies are act lively on the fugitive's trail, and if he remains free for any length of time he must exhibit superior qualities ir evading pursuit.

SHERIFF OFFICER
 GETS WHISKEY BUT
 BOOTLEGGERl lFLEES

Deputy Sheriff E. l.. Dawson ex- Speriencad sort of fifty-fifty break yesterday afternoon when he went out on hunt for bootlegger in the AL theimer neighborhood. The officer, after g diligent investigation of the fcw facts that had come to his atten- tlon, formed the conclusion that there was peripatetic whiskey vendor ply ing his trade about the Altheimer vicinity. t
 Laying plans for the bootlegers capture he proceeded to the spot se- lected for springing his trap and pull ed the trigger, but the trap was hard. ly big enough to catch all the game. It covered the horse, the buggy and the harness, also the whiskey, consist ing of several cases of the booze, but the booze vendor was smooth enough to get wind of the deputy's errand and was not to be found. However, Davison is pretty certain as to the identy 0f the man and thinks that he will get him later.
 This case has become important in that Davison telephoned the sheriff ID to the disposition of the captured buggy and horse. He received in structions to take possession and hold it in the name of the state.
 Speaking further on this subject, Sheriff Williams announced that he Aad given instructions to his officers to beixe and hold all vehicles of what soever kind found in these bootlegging raids, land if it is an automobile" said the sheriff, lit is all the better. We will hold it with more pleasufe and qualification at putting it out of the Whiskey trade"
