CAREY IN A WARNING
Fuel Administrator Tells Kansans
to Get Coal Now.

Emerson Carey, state fuel admiflis-
TRAITOR, has warned all KansanS that
they must safeguard against an al
most certain fuel shortage next win
ter. The production is not as great
as needed in the war crisis, Carey
says, and there will be many cold
homes next winter unless fuel is pur-
chased in advance.
Short production of coal in the
Colorado and Arkansas districts is
said by Carey to present serious
situation for Kansans. Carey be-
lieves there will be l. decided short
age of fuel next winter and he has
urged all persons to place orders for
early deliveries.

Allies are fighting to protect lands of

is-what is brigandry? The defini-
ton in the Century Dictionary has
only five words. You can easily re-
member it "Highway robbery by or
ganized gangs" Was there ever high

a scale by so ruthless and unscrupul-

Joseph Z. Terral Of Springfield.
Baca county, was recently designated
by the Democratic Judicial Assembly
at Denver as candidate for nomina-
ton as Judge of the Third Judicial
District composed Of the counties of
Baea, Bent, liuerfano, Las Animas.
and Prowers. MIR. Terral is Il native
of Mississippi, coming west twenty
years ago and locating at Hobart, Ok
lahoma, where he actively and sue
cessfully engaged in the practice of
professional pursuits until appointed
by President Wilson as Receiver of
the United States land office at Wood
ward, Oklahoma. Mr.. Terral descends
for twenty-five years connected with
the judiciary of Mississippi and at his
death was a member of the Supreme
Court of Mississippi.
Before removing from Mississippi
Mr.. Terral served during the sessions
of 1892 and 1894 in the Mississippi
legislature. He served in the Okla
homa Legislature as representative
of Kiowa county during the sessions
of 1909 and 1910, and was for two
terms prosecuting attorney of Kiowa
county, Oklahoma. Just before NOV
ing to Colorado Hon. Hubert l.. Bolen,
Internal Revenue Collector for Okla
homa, rendered Mr.. Terral a lucrative
position in the revenue service, which
he declined as its duties would take
him away from the companionship OF
his family. Mr.. Terral located at
Springfield on the first day Of Janu-
airy. 1916. and enjoys a growing and
lucrative practice, having been con-
nected as counsel since that time with
practically all the important litigation
of his section. Mr.. Terral did not vol
unfairly enter the race for judge. but
was put forward as candidate by
his legion of friends in Baca county.
He is the only east-end candidate on
either ticket for District Judge, and
has behind him the solid endorsement
of the Democrats of Baea county who
recognize and appreciate his splendid
qualifications for the position as is
evidenced by the unanimous adoption
by the recent assembly of the follow
ing resolution: because of the quail
ifications, ability and fitness of the
east-end candidate, the Hon. Joseph
f. Terral. for judge Of this judicial
district. we heartily endorse his de
signation for said place on the Demo
cratic ticket, and promise our support
and best efforts to successfully ac-
complish his election"
If nominated at the primary election
on September 10th Mr.. Terral will
make an active and aggressive cam
paign for election in November, and
as the only candidate for judge from
the east end of the district his NOM
nation will undoubtedly add strength
and popularity to the ticket as it is
only fair that Judicial as well as other'
offices should be equitably distributed
so that all sections may be represent
ed. Mr.. Terral solicits and will APP
preciate at full value the honor Of
your support.-Adv.

Caid He Didn't Want
~ to Deceive the PEOPLE

II then asked the admiral whether he
could explain the striking difference in the
figures of snkings issued by the British
and Germans. The British figures his
excellency replied, do not include all sink
ings. And so, for example, it has officially
been admitted that the British reports of
losses do not include tonnage requisitioned
FOR military purposes. In the German re-
ports of sinkings there may be included
ships that had been damaged but not sunk.
Under these circumstances it is necessary
to exercise precaution, for we do not want
to deceive the people, and especially our
selves
How can you EXPLAIN I further asked.
the decrease IN the sinking of shipping in
general and in particular cases?'
MS Is partly due to the decrease of
sea trafhc, the counter activity and counter
measures Of which make the operation of
the submarines more difficult his excel
lency said. But that the U-boats have
been able to keep up the present figures is
due to their bravery and saer excellent
crews
How about the bockadng pf Ostend
and Zeebrugge?'
Although the attempts in themselves
had been bravely carried out. they did not
succeed, for the way has not been closed 20
our naval forces And after pause the
admiral added: in brief, the U-boat dam
ger has not yet. entirely disappeared for
enemies. We mag look with confidence
into the future. This confidence is based
on the efficiency of our U-boat crews and
their spirit of sacrifice. Only they can
furnish US the necessary prerequisites for
the carrying of the submarine warfare.
and only they can secure fox us the necessary
points of support and keep the sea channels
open for US. This confidence is further
more based on the cooperation of the mill
tary departments and the production of our
shipyards and factories.
New-York tribune., 1918-09-01

Guilty of determining the type and name of
the attacked ship, except in cases of very
large steamers and those with especial
characteristics, like the Cowngton and
President Lincoln, and on the other hand
the fluctuations, since the sinkings by sub
marines depend upon circumstances.
"'Let add word to your question as
to my attitude toward the claim of our
enemies that Allied construction exceeds
snkings and that more U-boats are de-
stroyed than built. In the latter case I can
assure you that the reverse is true. And
the Secretary of the Navy has said il
openly. The relation of new ship construc-
tion by the Allies to snkings can be shown
In figures. | have written them down.
Here they are: From January till June
England built 127 ,208 tons of ships monthly
and the United States 112,9S6 tons monthly.
This gives a monthly total average for the
first six months of this year of 24o194 tons.
1T we place the tonnage obtained by the
Allies from other sources at $4,000 tons
monthly, we get a monthly total of 500, 900
tons. But the monthly average of our
slnklngs for the first six months of this
year amount to 100000 tons. This would
show that 100000 tons of shipping have
been sunk every month over the tonnage
built by the Allies
New-York tribune., 1918-09-01
Improving Their
l Shipping Situation

81 remarked that it was a question of
400, 900 TONS but Admiral Won Holtzendorff
replied that that was the figure in gross
tonnage. He then continues: BY the TAX
ing Of neutral tonnage the enemies sue
ceeded in improving their shipping situa-
tion, especially the military transports
from America
Here | interrupted the admiral with the
remark that the people are greatly dis
appointed with the fact that the u-boats
have sunk very few American transport
steamers.
I'm this connection the admiral replied,
I may ask you counter question: How
can the submarines make special attacks on
American transports? The Americans have
at their disposal for debarkation the
coastal region from the northern point of
Scotland to the French Mediterranean ports,
with dozens of debarkation places. Must
we set our boats to lurk outside all these
harbors only to be shot at by the strong
conveys of fast American transports The
conveys do not come with the regularity
and frequency of railway trains at big
railway station, but irregularly. with long
interruptions, and often by night and in
fog When one remembers all that. one
realizes what little prospect Of success it
transports. We must always kecu in mind
