Interests to Be Grouped.

It is becoming apparent to the lead
ers of the Lutheran Church in Amer
lea that the task of the Lutheran
Church in America hereafter will be
to do its part in reaching the I'M
churched of this country and helping
in the evangelization Of the world,
and they feel the only way success
fully to do that is to sweep aside now
racial and linguistic differences and
group interests and to view the larger
tasks that are before the church as
one.
Today is Reformation Sunday"
fraught with special significance to
all the Lutherans. Dominating their
recollections of the past is the thought
of the coming merger, the keynote of
which is readiness for the period Of
world reconstruction.

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY AT

she has lost her last Belgian port as

On returning from where the I'd

were there, with the doctors and

environments, railroad bases and am

no doubt as to the nature of the
place, which is in an isolated spot

Attack on Helpless Wounded.
IT suppose the boche will be over

as he looked up at the clear sky. HE

German Idea of "Peace."
at is Germany's idea of peace" said
Frenchman who was aiding in hus-

the darkness Of a cellar amid the
booming of anti-aircraft guns, the
rattle of falling shrapnel and the
crash of exploding bombs dropped by
the airplanes. Thirteen bombs fell on
the peaceful city at the dinner hour
last night.
1t seems to be Germany's idea Of
humanitarianism not to let up on her
efforts to kill women, children and
civilians while at the same time she
is pleading for peace.

AT the close of the legislative ses-
sion young James returned to his
home and took up the study of law
in the office of his father, Judge L.
H. James, and was admitted to the
bar full year before he had reach
ed his majority.
He leaped into political promi-
nence in the western section of the
state almost as soon as he became
of age and it was not long until his
influence began to be felt. He was
not yet 25 years old when he was
elected as a delegate to the Demo-
cratic National Convention in Chi
cago in 1896 which nominated Will
liam Jennings Bryan for the presi-
dency. His speeches in defense of
the Chicago platform attracted ma
ton wide attention to him, and made
him one of the most prominent fig
ure in the councils of the Democrat
ic party in Kentucky.
During the memorable campaign
which followed the Chicago conven-
ton, began the friendship between
Mr.. Bryan and James which was
never eXtinguished. 1t was not al
ways the case that they were in
agreement but their attachment for
each other never faltered.
Mr.. James was present as a dele
gate from Kentucky at five Demo-
cratic national conventions subse-
quent to the Chicago convention, and

A SAFE TEST

For those who are in need of a
remedy for kidney troubles and
backache, it is a good plan to try
Doan's Kidney Pills. They are
strongly recommended by Mt. Ster-
ling people.
Mrs. R. M. Reynolds, 81 Richmond
Ave-, Mt. Sterling, says: "My kid
neys were weak and inactive and /
felt run down and languid. My back
ached and panied and l had back
aches, also. l read of Doan's Kid
ney Pills and used some, from
Lloyds Drug Store, and they quickly
relieved all the trouble. A little men,
Der of my family had awfully weak
kidneys and complained of pains
across the back. The child's kidneys
were irregular in action, too. Doan's
Kidney Pills regulated her kidneys
and relieved the other symptoms of
kidney trouble"

served as permanent chairman o.
two of them, those Of 1912 and 1917
at which President Wilson was nomi-
mated.
We went to the Baltimore conven-
ton as an ardent supporter Of
Champ Clark, and largely had been
instrumental in having the delegation
from Kentucky instructed to vote FOR
the Missourian. Following the NOM
nation of Woodrow Wilson he was
one of the most active supporters
during the campaign and as MEM
Der of the Senate was one Of the
most ardent advocates of the Presi-
dents policies, and frequently serv-
ed as his spokesman in the legisla-
tive chamber.
Mr.. James from his boyhood had
held the ambition to serve as a mem
Der of Congress and in 1902 when he
was 81 years of age this ambition
was realized. He served five consec-
utive terms as a member of Congress
from the First Kentucky district,
and in 1912 was selected by the Gen
eral Assembly of Kentucky as Unit
ed States Senator. He was the last
man to be elected to the Senate from
Kentucky in that manner for shortly
thereafter the constitutional amend
ment providing for election of Sena-
tors by popular vote, measure
James had done much to get through
Congress, became the law.
Senator James was renominated at
a state-wide primary held August 8,
last, and received a surprisingly
large vote in view Of the fact that
his opponent had practically elimin-
ated himself by urging his friends
to renominate James.
AT the time the primary election
was held Senator James was i'll at
Johns Hopkins Hospital at Balti-
more, where he had been for several
months.
His illness dated from February l,
last following his return from Pater-
son, New Jersey, where he had gon.
to attend the funeral of his friend
Senator William Hughes. He was
from an attack of tonsilitis
before he started on the trip and it
had been made against the urgent
advice of his physician.
He was bedridden for two weeks
following his return from Patterson,
but spent his time preparing an al

Sketch of His Remarkable Career

oNCtCI VI Elio UCihut NouiO Sdt OOi
Ollie NJ. James, one of the leaders
of the Democratic party and long a
dominant figure in Kentucky politics,
served five conservatives terms as a
member of Congress from the First
Kentucky district, was elected United
States Senator by the General As
sembly in 1912, and was re-nominat-
ed for that office by a large vote at
the statewide primary on August
3rd last.
Senator James was born in Critten-
den county, Kentucky, July 81, 1871,
and was educated in the public and
academic schools of his section of
the state.
"Big Ollie" as he was Familiarity
known to thousands, was long one of
the dominant personalities in Ken
lucky politics and at his death was
numbered among the foremost of the
leaders of the Democratic party in
the nation.
His interest in politics dated from
his boyhood when at the age of six
teen years he served as page IN the
General Assembly of Kentucky. Here
he attracted attention because of the
rapidity with which he absorbed par
iamentary law and it was told of
him that before the legislative ses-
sion was over he knew more of the
rules of procedure than did many OF
the legislators themselves.

DISTINGUISHED OFFICER HERE

Major Jules Bellot, of the French
Army, was in our city last Friday
and addressed the War Conference.
Major Bellot was severely injured in
action and was detailed to this coun-
try as an instructor. He has been
decorated several times for bravery
shown under fire.

dress upholding the ADMINISTRATION
conduct Of the war. This address
was delivered February 14th. an'
this, too, was against the advice o.
friends and physician. lie insisted
on going ahead, however, because h'
had announced he would speak al
this time.
Three days later he was again
forced to take to his bed and il was
then found that he was suffering
from an acute inflammation Of the
kidneys. Although urgently advised
to take a vacation he was up and
attempting to attend to his business
three weeks later.
He was still suffering great pain,
however, and finally went to the
Johns Hopkins hospital at Baltimore
at the urgent solicitation of friends.
He never left the hospital but once
and then only for an automobile ride
through Baltimore parks.
At the hospital he submitted to two
dental operations, an operation for
the removal of his tonsils and ade-
noids, being performed later to get
rid of foci of infection which was
thought might be causing his trouble.
This series of operations on Sena-
tor James destroyed for time his
senses of smell and taste, and was
found a difficult matter to persuade
him to take enough nourishment. His
condition soon became such that he
roic measures were necessary and
the physicians resorted to blood
TRANSMISSION, more than a quart of
blood being transferred from the
veins of friend to his own.
His appetite returned but when
solid food was given him he found
that he could not retain it. Although
an X-ray examination disclosed
nothing wrong, milk proved the only
food he could retain and this was
his diet up until the time of his death.
Aside from his service in the
House of Representatives Senator
James chief claim to fame in his
own state was because of the part
he played in the events preceding and
following the assassination Of Gov
ernor VIM. Goebel.
He played a conspicuous part in
the convention which nominated
Goebel as a leader of the forces of
w. ]. Stone, who with Gen. P. Watt
Hardin, contested the election of
Goebel. The convention was dead
locked for more than a week before
GoebePs supporters found it posi-
BILE to master a majority. James
supported Goebel in the campaign
that followed, and when Goebel de-
cided to institute a contest after a
certificate of election had been given
to w. S. Taylor, he called upon
James to serve as attorney before
the General Assembly.
The contest was decided in GoebePs
favor and then he was killed, and
during all the stormy period which
followed James occupied a conspic-
uous place.
Since that time Mr.. James had
been away from the state most of
the time but returned frequently to
"meet the boys" as he put it, and
always kept in very close touch with
all the political currents of the
states politics.
Senator James was married Dec
ember 2, 1903, to Miss Ruth Thomas,
daughter of R. Y. Thomas, of Mar
ion, Kentucky, who survives him.
They had no children.
He was buried at Marion, KY, his
old home.

He is an Austrian, had bot . Liberty
bond, hut he couldn't keep his mouth
shut. He began 70 talk that this was

uralixed because he had to be, and
was forced to buy Liberty bonds, etc.
Texik had been working at Floresta
hard coal mines, but when the rotary
dug the miners out from there two
weeks ago, came TO the Buttes for .
rest. He talked SO much that gradual
ly the feeling against him grew among
the loyal workers and citizens and it
came to fever heat about Wednesday
afternoon. Supt: Manley of the C. F.
& /. mine is q deputy sheriff at the
Buttes, and notified Sheriff Hanlon Of
the situation. II was in effect riot
call, but by phone arrangements were
made to hustle him out of the Buttes.
The gasoline hand car on the Rio
Grande wis put in working order, and
Manley, with Edgar Wilson, and w.
r. Kreutzer, made quick getaway
over the ribbon Of steel to Gunnison,
where they were met by Hanlon and
the prisoner confined in Jail.
Federal District Attorney Tedrow
of Denver was notified, and has wired
instructions to hold the, prisoner un-
