Ollie M. James was one of the most
picturesque and forceful figures in Con-
gress as well as a popular idol among
Kentucky Democrats. He ranked high in
cessive service in the House and Senate,
and his towering physique and powerful
voice always commanded attention in
legislative and convention halls. He was
nominated to succeed himself in the Sen
ate in the recent Kentucky Democratic
primaries by an overwhelming vote
After the United States entered the
war in 1917 Senator James became one
of the most aggressive Senate spokesman
of the administration and champion of
the army and navy preparations. His
last appearance at the capitol was on
Feb. IA last, to deliver a fiery speech in
answer to an attack upon the war de-
partment by Senator Chamberlain, chair
man of the military committees, He
appealed to all Americans not to heekle,
badger or handicap the president, and de-
clared 1--WE are going to make the kaiser
hand over his sword"
Three days later he was taken i'll at
dinner. Several weeks afterward he in
sisted on returning to the Senate, but
was too weak to take any part and soon
went to Johns Hopkins hospital in Balti-
more. He was operated on in an effort
to stay the ravages of chronic case of
Brights disease.
Mrs James and a brother, Edgar
James, United States marshal for the
western district of Kentucky, were with
the senator at the hospital during his
long fight for life. Many members of
both houses of Congress went over to
Baltimore frequently to pay cheering
visits.
Other relatives Of the senator are his
sisters, Miss Lizzie James, who lives with
her father at the James homestead at
Marion Ky, and Mrs. j. f. Gordon of
jacksonville, and his father, Judge S. H.
James of Marion Mrs. James was for
merly Ruth Thomas of Marion, Ky. She
was married to Senator James in 1903
Senator James was prophet of Demo
cratic success in every political contest
and an outspoken partisan on all occa-
sions He made the keynote speech on
Democratic achievements at the st. Louis
Democratic national convention in 1915
and drew from that gathering of 10000
persons cries of Give it to us again,
ollie" when epitomizing President Will
sons policies. He made the speech no
(tifying President Wilson of his election
to the presidency in September, 1916.
Senator James was AZ years old. He
began public life as a page in the Ken
lucky legislature. He seconded Bryan's
nomination for president in 1908, headed
the Kentucky delegation to Democratic
national conventions in 1904 and 1908,
served in the House in the fifty eighth
to sixty .second Congresses and had been
in the Senate since 1913, when he sue
ceeded Thomas H. Paynter.

NO PRoFITING FROM DRAFT.
Post Sets Forth the Labor Attitude of
the Administration.

Chicago, Aug 2s.-The administra-
tions' attitude toward concsription of la
Dor was outlined before the Association
of Commerce Monday by Louis f. Post,
assistant secretary of labor.
"The time may come" he said, when
we will have to conscript workers in
mines, forests and factories, but in the
name Of democracy these men shall not
be conscripted until we have first con
scripted the places where they shall
work. This democracy will not stand
for the CONSUMPTION of men to work for
the profit of other men. The conscript-
ed man must work for Uncle Sam and
no one else"

HOME FROM FRANCE
KENNEDY, OF CANTON,
BRINGS ENCOURAGING
REPORTS.

Canton, Sept. 13.-Lieut. Vern
Kennedy, of the One Hundred and
Forty-seventh field artillery, Ameri-
a expeditionary forces, arrived
home from France Friday, looking as
fine and healthy as only an Ameri-
can soldier a look. He will remain
in Canton for several days on a fur
Tough. He will then report for duty
at Camp Meade, Md, as a training
officer. Lieut.. Kennedy states the
American boys in France are in ex-
cellent health. have good food, are
well cared for and the morale of the
entire army is fine. Their one aim
and desire is TO exterminate the Hun,
and they do not wish to return home
until this is done. Asked what the
French and Allied nations think of
the American as a soldier and as an
all around American, he said the
highest regard is given the Ameri-
cans and that in general they are
looked upon with establishment min
gled with awe, as they present a fine
physique which especially holds a
foreigner with admiration, and they
are trained and equipped beyond the
expectations of the Allied nations.

BECAME SUSPICIOUS
BONDSMEN SURRENDER STAN
LEY COUNTY MAN.

Pierre, Sept. 13.-Charles H. Bid
tings. a Stanley county man. who at
the June term of United States court
was indicted or the charge of making
threats against the presidents life.
and who was released on bond pend
ing his trial, has been lodged in the
county jail in this city, his bonds
men having surrendered him to the
authorities. This action was taken
by the bondsmen when they discov-
cred that Bidtings was attempting to
dispose of his property in Stanley
county, which gave rise to the sus-
picion that he was preparing to make
his getaway and leave his bondsmen
in the lurch. Bidtings is said to own
"a great deal of property In Stanley
and also in Jackson county. 1t is
probable that he now will be COM
PEELED to remain in Jail until his trial.

WORST OVER, GEORGE AYERS
British Premier Declares Real Allied
Victory Certain.

Manchester, Eng, Sept. t3.-"Noth-

the British nation can prevent our
achieving a real victory" said Premier
Lloyd George. THE worst is over"
he declared.
"The news now is distinctly good
really good" he said. 1.-THE tunnel is
long and there are some steep grad
tents still to be climbed, but it is get
ting shorter.
THE casualties in the latest adj
vance were less than one-ifth those
suffered in the advance of 1916. The
main difference between 1916 and 1918
Is the unity of command"
Lloyd George said he was for a
league OF nations and that in fact a
league already had been begun. The
British empire, he said, was a league
OF free nations and that the Allied
countries fighting the battle for inter-
national right we're now a league of
free nations.

SAVE The PITS
FRUIT PITS ARE USED In MAX
ING CHEMICALS FOR
GAS MASKS.

The war department has issued an
emergency call for everybody
throughout the United States to help
provide material for the gas masks
for our soldiers who are now fight
ing in the front line trenches.
Save all peach. apricot. plum, cher
ny and prune pits and the shells OF
hickory nuts. butter nuts, walnuts.
hazel nuts and Brazil nuts, also date
seeds and olive. pits. The meat of
the nuts are not necessary. Seven
pounds of these shells, when they
have been reduced to carbon, make
the r%espirator for one mask. This
carbon readily absorbs the poisonous
chemical gases. Two hundred peach
pits make one mask.
All these pits, seeds and shells
should be thoroughly dried. Sacks
and containers will be placed in a
number OF centrally located places in
the county and every school should
provide a container.
Begin at once to save and dry the
pits and shells and in a few days
places to which they may be taken
will be announced in the papers,.
