TAFT SAYS HOLD
 PRESIDENT TO A
 SURE SURRENDER

Portsmouth, x. H., Nov. I.-Form- CT President Taft urged New Hamp- shire voters in speech here. tonight to elect Republicans to congress so that President Wilson would be held to an unconditional surrender by Germany and not be allowed to make peace by negotiation.
 MT. Taft objected to the Presidents S appeal for the election of Democratic candidates fol. congress on the assumption that Democratic major ity in both houses would make the President the unembarrassed spokes-1 man in affairs at home and abroad.
 The character of the Presidents appeal" said MT. Taft. "discloses his utter misunderstanding of our consti- tutional form of government The ap- peal is a demand for power during the next two years equal to that of the Hohenzollerns in war and peace, and accounting and reconstru ,tion.
 'He asks the America people to entrust him ith unlimited control ov- CT the settlement of a peace that will affect them for century when he has given many evidences of a wish to pursue course against which their face are set like flint, to it, peace by negotiation. His appeal for unres- trained power is unprecedented in the annals of the country, and it is as un- republican as it is unnecessary"
 Speaking of the set..cmcn.. of ques- tions of industry, transportation, gov ernment ownership and operation, la-

w O. 0.--------. LOCAL DEMOCRATS AWAKEN.

Every Democrat in Pine Bluff and Jefferson county should go to the polls Tuesday and cast his ballot. Lit. tie or no apparent discussion of poli- tics has been noticeable. Peace talk and the war has pervaded the air.
 However, Pine Bluff and Jefferson county Democrats must not be caught asleep at the switch. On the size of the vote cast Tuesday depends our representation in the state convention. A large vote for Democratic nominees who were nominated last May should be pooled from sense of loyalty.
 Important matters will probably occupy the next state convention. It is apparent that peace is at hand. In changing from war to peace anything is likely to arise.
 Local Democrats appear to be talk ing little active interest. This is fa- tai condition. Pine Bluff and Jefftr- son county desires full representa-. tion at the state convention. Every vote cast Tuesday will count. It is the privilege and duty of every voted to go to the polls.
 There should be no slackers. Inde- pendent candidates may at one time or the other take advantage of the apparent legarthy of the local Demo- cratic party. A full complete vote will dampcn the ardor of any such person.
 A full vote will show that Pine Bluff and Jefferson county heartily approves of President Wilson's act ions. That they desire to see Demo- cratic senators and congressman at Washington, that the President be not hindered or trammellcd in the big events of the future that must be disposed of by the executitivc.
 Every Democrat go to tue polls Tuesday and vote.

DEMAND FIR SHIPS
To Carry Soldiers Overseas Has Stopped Many Exports From
 This Country.

Washington. Nov 2-Demands fol
 ships to carry soldiers overseas un.
 der the enlarged military program
 practically has stopped cereal ex.
 ports, Food Administrator Hoover in- formed Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska today in letter explaining the ad- ministration's permit seystem for corn shipments.
 Mr. Hoover said the system was necessary to prevent congestion in terminals, and was not the cause of declining prices.
 "The necessity for the permit sys- tenn arises solely out of the desire to keep the coarse grains moving as against 8 positive flood of wheat" he added. "The program of exports agreed upon i'll Europe last summer calls for the total export of cereals from the United States of approxi- mately 50,0O0,000 bushels month for the first eight months after Sep tember 1. Since that time the chang es in military program have led Gen. eral Pershing to demand a much larger tonnage for the American army than was anticipated, and as result. shipping has been taken out of the cereal trades until we arc practically exporting nothing.'

HEREDITARY PRESIDENT.

The report that the kaiser has said he will not be willing to abdicate but that he would consider converting his office into a hereditary presidency under constitution like that of Great Britain is not confirmed, but it has at least one earmark of truth.
 The hereditary nature of the office to which the kaiser aspires accords with his character and fits in nicely with the fact that as a candidate for an elective office he probably could not carry his own ward.
 Liebknecht. the Socialist, always ran for the Reichstag in the kaiser's home town and always beat the kais- CTS candidate to frazzle.

DEMOCRACY WINS.

Events of the present and past has caused no end of excitement and those for the future are to be even more thrilling. The entire world is in a chaotic uproar. Some are shouting for joy, others arc gloomy while others view the situation of all three lenses, with great trepidation.
 The Central Powers is thing of the past. In another day germany will know what the allied nations ex- pect in retribution for the perpertra- tion of the greatest era of crime and bloodshed in all history.
 The French have not forgotten the time not generation ago, when Will liam of Prussia established the ger {. man dynasty. France was beaten and prostrate. Their idol, Napoleon had been defeated by the mighty William. William was then crowned emperor of germany with all the pomp and glory. France was the maid-servant at the big ceremony. On this day the mighty William and the german peo- pie little thought that the French sol , diefs, men and women would rise again. This country had ceased to be factor and would live the remainder of it's days in deep repentance and fin. ally die in sorrow.
 The Versailles conference has prob. ally completed the armisticc terms. There is little doubt but that ger many will accept them without fur ther barley. It is to be hoped that the world powers have made all safe guards for the preventing of another war being born. This is the one great est danger.
 Any mercy that may be shown the empire, as it is now managed and rul. ed would be practically an act of treason to the mothers of France, Belgium, England, Italy and to the mothers in America who have yielded their sons lives up that this monster be crushed for once and all.
 The Supreme War Council it is hoped has provided for the taking away of rule by monarch or the ger- man people. This safeguard to be dictated that another war machine be not constructed.
 Remember the following incidents:
 Edith Cavell; The Lusitania; mur- dered men and women; raped virgins of Northern France and Belgium; Our own soldier boys dying from suffocating gas; hundreds of other deeds performed by the soldiers of this uncivilized country.

 William and those who were his co-partners in leadership should be put to trial for their lives. They are Kings and generals and admirals. but thsy arc no better than the wretches

 It is pointed out by a religious man of Pine Bluff few days ago that "such flood of profanity, such exhuberance of imagination in the devising of new forms of cursing, such abandon even on the part of the good people to the delicious thrill of being able to say naughty words with out censure or rebuke, the world has not yet ever seen." He remarked how ever, "that everyone had become fami- liar with saying damn the kaiser, that he believed in peace times the profanity would not be so popular

common knowledge that certain posts,
especially in the diplomatic service, en-
tail expenses so much in excess of the
salary paid that they can be accepted
only by men of wealth. A recent Sec

FOR The POULTRY
GROWER
sssssssssssssssssssssssss

Fowls, like pigs, do the best and
through the summer season, If plenty
of tender green feed Is provided, says
q writer. Even in towns and villages
where there is plenty of space, this
green feed can be provided in abun-
dance for the poultry. 1t Is, however,
on the farms, both large and small,
and where large locks Of fowls are
kept, that this green feed should be
provided.
As the fowls are, or should be, ex-
cluded from the gardens and truck
patches at all seasons, some other spot
must be used for providing the green
feed. The two crops to SOW period.
ically are rape and oats. Many poul-
try breeders provide these, but make
only one sowing and that about April
and May. Repeated sowings for a
regular succession Of fresh tender
stuff is recommended.
AS the early sowing of both oats
and rape Is now growing scarce and
getting tough replow the ground and
resow again in August. The larger
the young chickens get the more they
will eat Of such tender green feed and
as it Is both cheap aud healthful, the
more expensive feeds are saved.
The idea is to produce mature poul-
try and an abundance of eggs at the
minimum of expense. and the work
of providing green feed must be be-
gun early and continued all through
the growing season.
