LANCASTER, Pa, Sept. rs, 1918. !
Lancaster county tobacco growers
are showing more nerve this season
than they have for years, in letting
their tobacco stand beyond the normal
period for frost, which is the middle of
September. A week ago, during a
brief period of rather cold weather,
when light frost occurred in several
parts of the county, some of the grow
| ers began cutting feverishly, but the
majority who had not cut up to that
time, held off. During last week very
anticipated. The cold spell was fol-
lowed by warmer weather and rains
| which seem to have benefited the stand
pears to prevail that frost would be
| late coming this season, and this must
be accepted as the reason for the cut
ting being postponed. This week, how
ever, will see most of the crop shielded.
| So far as the growers who have been
careful observers of the new crop can
trade wants. The crop received better
care and was better worked than any
crop in recent years. That cut early
appears to be curing nicely and bids
fair to have a good color. Tests of the
earliest crops shielded show that the
leaf has a good burn and pleasant flaw
or. The crop is one to please packers,
all but the price. In spite of all that
has been published regarding the I'M
satisfactory condition of the tobacco
trade, the grower appears less inclined
now than ever to come down to a de-
cent price for his holding. While lot
| of them say they will be content to'get
thirty cents pound, just as many are
asking thirty-five to forty cents, and
they are even being urged by parties
with selfish personal interests to ask
forty cents. The consequence is just
what might be expected. The buyers
are not buying, no sales whatever hav-
ing been reported.

Red Cross Tells Where Dollars Go.

The end of this year will see more
than $40, 900. 900 spent in France alone
by the American, Red Cross since the
beginning of the war. This is revealed
in a statement just issued by the Red
Cross War Coancil. Nearly half of all
this money-$34, 583, 827.57 to be exact
has been appropriated for the last
half of 1918.
This was made necessary by the
great German attack of last spring
which drove so many poor French FAM
lilies from their homes. The items 81
civilian relief and reconstruction Of
ruined villages alone have called for
SIS, 557, sos. 70 and the end is not in sight.
The Red Cross now has in France
about 5000 workers, many of whom
work for nothing and pay their own ex-
penses. Many others give their serv-
ices free but part of all their expenses
are borne by the Red Cross.

SATURDAY, October IL, is the four
hundred and twenty-sixth anniversary
of the discovery of America. President
Wilson has proclaimed it Liberty Day
and requests the citizens of every CON-
munity in the United es-city, town
and countryside -to celebrate the day.
The President in his proclamation, says
every day the great principles for
which we are fighting take fresh hold
upon our thought and purposes and
make it clearer what the end must be
and what we must do to achieve it.
We now know more certainly than we
ever knew before why free men brought
the great nation and government we
love into existence, because it grows
clearer and clearer what supreme serv-
ice it is to be Americas privilege to
render to the world.

WHEN we finish this war we will owe
ourselves vast amounts, while at the
close of the Rebellion we owed COM
paratively greater amount to Euro
peans. During the War of the Rebel
lion we bought from Europe, and Euro
pean manufacturers were the profit
GERS, whereas, in this war, the profits
go to our own people, and will be here
subject to visitation by our tax gather
ers whenever we need the funds to pay
our Indebtedness to ourselves. So do
not get cramps in your neck gazing at
the climbing pyramid of debt, for it is
our own pyramid, and do not dive into
the doldrums of despair while mourn
fully contemplating the unfortunate
condition of the next generation, for
you will leave it ten times more than
you received from the generation which
preceded you. Smile as you look at the
climbing pyramid of debt, weep only
for the killed and the MANNED, the
great army of physical sufferers. The
cost of this war is not measured in dol
lars, but in lives. The toll Of the can
non disturbs more than the toll of the
profiteer. If our boys are willing to
pyramid their future, their very lives
name of Humanity should we continue
to gaze at our debt pyramid as if it
were some hideous monster bent on
swallowing us alive? Let US quit talk
ing about the magnitude of our debts
until after the war, and then, in true
American style, adjust them so they
will bear heaviest upon the financially
strong, and proceed to demolish the
pyramid as rapidly as we created it.
Above all things we should not permit
anything to divert our attention from
the needs of our brave sons over the
seas. There is more profiteering than
there should be, but it is American
profiteering; it's results will be here in
America within easy reach of the gov
ernment's taxing arm. They will also
be useful to build and maintain indus
trial enterprises that will be sorely
needed to give employment to the vast
army of our returned sons at the close
of the war.

The Union League Founded at Albion
During the Civil War.

An incident of local interest that
dates back to the civil war times is re-
called by an article published in the
Milwaukee Sunday Sentinel:
The organization of the Albion chap
ter of the Wisconsin Loyalty Legion,
with 1T members. including the head
of practically every family in the town,
recalls to few people familiar with
Albion's history the founding of the
'Union League" by the students of
Albion academy during civil war days.
There was large attendance at the
school from the northwest during the
early days of the war. According to
the story of the late Henry Head, who
enlisted in Company G., Fourth Regi-
ment of Wisconsin Volunteers, and re-
turned to Albion after the war, where
he resided until his death last winter,
the organization of the Union League
followed an incident that occurred on
the college campus.
One morning when the students were
marching to chapel exercises, two con-
federate sympathizers ran from the
rank of marchers and pulled down the
United States flag flying from flag
staff on the campus. SO great was the
Indignation of the students and the
community that. the offenders hastily
left town for fear of being lynched.
The organization of the Union League
followed, its object being to ferret out
and punish confederate sympathizers.
1t was felt necessary to hold the meet
ings of the society secretely because of
the flag incident, also because the
league was part of the underground
railroad. A tunnel was dug under
the Seventh Day Baptist church and a
large chamber excavated under the
building where members were initiated
under solemn oath.
Many students and residents in that
section in the community became mem
bers of the league and enlisted from it
into the union army. s..
Paul Painter, who resides with his
son in Albion, is probably the only liv-
ing member of the Union League. AL
though SO years old, he recalls the in
cident of the secret meetings under the
church.
Albion academy, one of the oldest in
situations of learning in Wisconsin, was
founded by the Seventh Day Baptists,
who came from Rhode Island and from
Alfred Center, N. Y. The academy
was opened in the fall of 1854 and ran
as demoninational school until the
eighties. The academy grounds cover
IL acres in the heart of the picturesque
village in Albion township.

THE fight in this campaign is not
based so much on clearcut issues as it
is upon the necessity of keeping men in
office who will to the best advantage
aid in securing the results which Wis
consin must accomplish in its war work.
A successful termination of this war
will be brought about most speedily
and readily through the absolute effic-
iency on the part of the people direct
ing the work Governor Philip has
proved his efficiency along these lines
and his work has shown the nation
what can be accomplished by the state
because no one will charge that under
the administration of Governor Philip,
Wisconsin has been Stacker state.
Wisconsin has led and in leading has
done much to place the federal govern
ment in the position that it is, with its
troops in France winning victories and
demonstrating Wisconsin's army 10y
atty. The Governor now has a son and
daughter enlisted in the service, the
son being in the navy and the daughter
enlisted in Red Cross service and pre-
pairing for immediate overseas service
as trained graduate nurse. As his
children have as volunteers responded
to their country's call, the Governor,
by unceasing service, has seen to 1t
that Wisconsin has met every emer-
gency promptly. 1t has furnished its
quotas of drafted men, it sent its vol
unteers into the field equipped at the
expense of the state. Wisconsin has
not waited to see what other states
were doing, bat has gone ahead and led
in its accomplishments. As result, il
has done its part toward the speedy
winning of the war. A change in ad-
ministration at this time means an in
jury to the efficiency of the state, nc
matter who might be elected to fill of
flee. 1t has been rightly said that it is
a time when politics should not infience
public sentiment. 1t is time wher
recognition should be given men who dc
things, and as Governor Philip has
this record, why change?

ASK an Englishman when the war
will end and he will reply, 'The first
seven years are the HARDEST French
man and you will hear, after twenty
years of fighting, every fourth year is
the HARDEST" but an American will
saw, "damfino." There are the fortifi-
cations OF Metz and Strassburg to be
destroyed before the troops can cross
the Rhine. While the victories on the
western front have been considerable,
we should not be too elated, for there
is much to do. This is the statement
of an officer arriving from the battle
front in France.
