Princeton Potato Market Dead.

Z p =
Many Of the warehouses have closed
down for the season and those which
remain open for business are taking in
very small quantity Of potatoes. The
reason is, of course, obvious the
starch factory is paying more per cwt.
for field run than the buyers are for
screened potatoes, that is, with the ex-
ception Of one or two varieties. And,
as from Is to 20 cents per cwt. is not
too much to deduct for the culls, the
factory is actually paying the highest
price for all varieties.
The quantity Of potatoes in the
warehouses is now small the bulk Of
the stock has been shipped out.

First Class May
Fall Back

There are in the United States
about two million more men than
women. A number of them come
under Division A of Class l..
Many of them enlisted when war
was declared. The vast majority
of them feel that they are pre-
eminently the ones to bear this
burden. Next in order comes the
married man who. has failed to
support his family Most people
are entirely willing that men of
this class and those who permit
their wives to support them
should be put in the front-line
trenches.
The married man who is not,
usefully occupied. and whose
family have an assured income,
can be spared for this great SER
vice, and if he has special talents
find that his country needs them,.
even when his countrymen may
been asked to take complete
charge. And by the way. Dem

that enough men may be fouaA1
in Class l to furnish all the sold
iers, sailors, marines, aviators and
other men needed for the arm.
unless the war lasts far longW
than any save the gloomiest pes
simists now predict. When Harry
Lauder told Washington audi
ence the other day that ScotlarC
was a little country, with but five
million people. yet had given nine
hundred Thousand men-tU fight

plaus. This is indeed splendid

Of the American people doubts

OF course the first considera-

army that can be raised, and tol
do it without interfering with the |
orderly processes Of production
Of the necessities of life. plus the |
necessities of war. The next is
to possess such classification
as will make it comparatively
easy to call upon men for other

Me- ormick's Prohibition
Claims Not Upheld by His
Acts, Republicans Assert

Much resentment among Republic
cans who favor the prohibition amend
ment. has been aroused over the
course of National Chairman Vance {.
McCormick's newspapers in denounc-
ing Republicans who will not split
their tickets on the Congressional is
sue at the behest OF President wilson,
while Mccormick himself declines to
support Senator Sproul for governor,
the only dry candidate who has a
chance of election. Senator Sproul
declared unquivocally for the amend
ment at the very opening of his cam
paign and Mccormick knows he is the
only gubernatorial nominee who can
he elected who is sincerely for prom
bition. Nevertheless he opposes him
and thereby gives the prohibition
amendment a black eye.
Under the circumstances. the NC
Cormick attack on Senator Sproul'
while thousands of others are support
ing him without regard to party on
the prohibition issue, is causing a re-
vulsion among many who were READY
to split their tickets on prohibition
Also there is a feeling of doubt as 70
McCormiCk'S sincerity, in view OF ms
failure to have written into the Demo-
cratic platform. when he had the state
committee under his thumb. any ref
erence to prohibition. In other words.
when he had an opportunity to give
the amendment a boost he hedged ana
lodged. The feeling among Republi-
cans is that Mccormick is first OF all
a bitter partisan who uses all issues,
even the war. for party purposes.

HARRIS OUT
I FOR MIR. SPROUL
Anti-Liquor Chieftain Speaks
in Behalf of the Senator
From Delaware County

Or. John Royal Harris, state SUI
Ueriutendeut or the Dry Federation
Of PENNSYLVANIA, issued a statement
tonight in which he urges the dry
voters all over the state to go to
the polls next Tuesday and vote for
Senator William G. Sproul for Gov
trnoU and the candidates for thc Leg
islature WAC have gone on record as
favorable TO the ratification of the
rational prohibition amendment. Or.
Harris said:
Now is the time for all good men
to come to ihc aid of Mr.. Sproul and
Of those legislative candidates who
are for ratification of the national
prohibition amendment. The Dry
Federation calls for sprouts support
regardless of party. and for all Of
Il endorsed legislative men regard
less OF party.
To do this is To bring two things
TO pass: Ratification Of the amend
menl and tine control OF the Republic
ar organization 10y those favorable
to the dry cause. The eNactinE arro-
gancy of tho dying liquor business
has grown lrtoIerable To so many that
they have GENE To he a controlling
majority in the party councils, and
here is our chance to break once and
forever any connection with that
business and its offensive methods.
The endorsement given Mr.. Sproul
by the Federation was based on long
and careful Investigation. 1t was pre-
coded by endorsements and advises
from county organizations quite
widely. When the State Executive
Committee met. after notice that ac-
ton was TO he taken it took such ac-
ton very tremendously and enthusi-
aStlcally. NJ cur thirteen members,
all but two were for endorsing Mr..
Sproul.
Confirmation of the justice ana
wisdom of this course has been COM
ing in ever since. The liquor men
are getting behind the candidacy Of
Municipal Court Judge Bonniwell, and
attacking Mr.. Sproul on every kind
of ground. \ wide publicity campaign
against him is being backed by the
more dangerous gumshoe kind. and
the appeal TO various prejudices.
We are going to die lighting, is
the slogan II the vets. To he at the
death is the ambition OF all other
voters. Your vote for Mr.. Sproul and
our endorsed legislative candidates
will admit you. And Pennsylvania
will enter 4 political era worthy OF
her proud place of history
