A VIEW OF EASTERN KENTUCKY

Mr.. Clay Cisco is just home from
weeks visit to friends in Morgan
and Breathitt counties. Speaking of
the agricultural outlook of that Sec
ton Mr.. Cisco reports the condition
above normal. Crops are good and
and have been cared for. Tobacco
acreage was not large and is being
held at 35 and 40 cents. Stock of
all kinds are in unusual good condi
ton and but for the prevalent cpl
demic of the Flu, the citizenship
would be of high spirits and farmers
and traders would be encouraged to
greater efforts.
The Flu is awful, its effect dread
full and the results passing from the
first stage to pneumonia is alarming.
Some families of five or more all
are down at the same time, doctors
over worked and to get nurses is a.
matter beyond possibilities. In West
Liberty with a population of less.
than 500 there were go cases at one
time and to the surrounding country
undertakers are busy sending out
caskets. As conditions are in Nor
gan county so they are in Magofin,
Breathitt and other counties. At al
most every station Baskets are being
taken off or loaded on. Really it
would seem the mountain country is
a large orphanage, for where the
heads of the family have this dread
ed disease and it goes into pneu-
monia it is almost certain death with
them.

MRS. CURTIS TO RETURN
 WITH HUSBANDS REMAINS

The report that Mrs. Frank Curtis, who was called to Oregon on account of the illness of her husband and who passed away, had also succumber to in fluenza, is not true. Mrs. Curtis was seriously ill for some time, but at last reports was getting better, and has advised friends here that as soon as she was able, she would bring the body of he rhusband home for interment.
 Up to this time no information has been received as to arrangements for the funeral, which it is understood will be under the auspices of the Masonic fraternity, of which the deceased was a member.

NOTHING FOR PEACE.

It is to be regretted that in the
 closing days of the war, and even all
 through the war, it has been impos- sible to get many people to see the importance of studying after-war re- construction problems. The leading business men of other nation have been conducting systematic inquiries into the conditions they will have to meet, and have been preparing for the industrial and trade difficulties that will be confronted. The United States, lulled to sleep by politicians who saw an opportunity to make par tisan profit out of the war, has done nothing by way of preparing for peace. We shall be as sorry as we were that we did not prepare for war but remorse will be of little avail.

REPUBLICANS ON DECK.

Now if Congress will indeed lay aside partisanship and adopt the Weeks resolution for the creation of a joint congressional committee on reconstruction, with an equal number of republicans and democrats on its membership, we shall most expedi- tiously solve the after-war prob lems. This is not partisan task. To determine the best plans for return to the activities of peace is an under taking in which the best minds of the country should join together without regard to party affiliations.

The Coconino sun., 1918-11-15

Peace is here at last and there is the greatest joy in the hearts of the people, and though there are many with joy in their hearts, there is too, a disappointed feeling because our boys did not have a chance to blow up and destroy wide strip of German territory in retaliation for the devil ish work done by the Huns. But since the Kaiser lost his throne and the people will be practically "peoned" for the next few generations, they have not gotten off lightly and tRelr punishment is to come only in another form.

Dave Lawrence, the White Hou

Dave Lawrence, the White House Boswell, gave us a pre-eelction assu- rance that Mir. Wilson did not want third term in the presidential chair. The democratic party did better than that in the democratic platform of 1912, Dave. Don't you remember !? Here it is: "We favor a single pres idential term and to that end urge the adoption of an amendment to the Constitution making the president of the United States ineligible for re- election, and we pledge the candidate of this convention to that principle ' And the candidate was Woodrow Will son. Is it possible they meant by single" term, the office in perpetu- itV?

CAPT. FRANK EDWARDS
SPEAKS AT NlNOT
Noted British Officer Will Deliver an
Address Under Auspices Of Red
Cross, Wednesday, Aug. 2S.

DR.. A. D. MsCannel, chairman Of
the Ward County Chapter Of the Am
erican Red Cross, received wire this
morning from State Director Young
of Fargo, stating that Captain Frank
Edwards, of the Royal Fusiliers, who
is touring the United States speaking
under the auspices of the British Mil
itary Commission, will be at Minot
Wednesday, August 20, and deliver an
address. His mission is to bring
home to our people something of the
actual condition Of things at the
Front, so that we may understand
what they are and what we, in this
country, must do to win the war.
Captain Edwards spent two and a
half years in the South African war,
in which he won Captains commits
sion.
When England entered the present
war he enlisted six hundred young
men and went with them as private
into the battlefields of France, finally
rising to the rank of company COM
mander of his battalion. No one is
better qualified to speak on the war
situation than Captain Edwards.
He is at present filing speaking en-
gagements in Montana and will deliv-
er four addresses in North Dakota
j. Adam Bede, who spoke at the same
meeting with him at Billings, says
that he is positively the most effective
speaker on the present war that he
has heard.
Arrangements are already under
way to give this noted speaker a re-
ception in Minot that will be commen-
surate with his rank and attainments.
He will arrive in Minot Wednesday
afternoon over the 500 line, coming
here from Bismarck, where he speaks
on the evening of the 9th. 1t is al
together probable that the opera
house will be engaged for this meet
ing.

Non-Delivery of Soldiers Mail Due to
Insufficiency of Address.

Postmaster Anderson received
communication from the First Assist
ant Postmaster General that is of
general interest to the public. The
letter reads as follows:
Office of First Asst. Postmaster
General, Washington, D. c., July 80.
The chief cause Of the non-delivery
Of mail intended for soldiers in the
military camps in the United States
is insufficiency of address.
Postmasters are, therefore, enjoin-
ed to notify the relatives and friends
of soldiers that unless mail is adj
dressed to company and regiment or
other distinctive organization, de-
lays in delivery or failure to deliver
may result, and to urge upon patrons
the necessity for placing correct and
complete addresses and return cards
upd 6all classes of mail intended for
soldiers, particularly at this time
when many new men are being in
Quoted into the service and the old
units are being transferred to differ
ent camps.
