KINIBALLS CHANCE.

The Hon. Press Kimball, of Lexing-
ton, gives out letter of withdrawal,
from the race against Ollie James,
that has a string to it. Mr.. Kimball
says he is in the race only for the
purpose of having the nomination
made by the people at the polls, and
not by the committee, as would hap
pen if there were but one candidate.
He says his name will appear on the
ballot, but that he is Loyalty support
ing James and requests all other
good Democrats to do likewise. Kim
balls position looks ludicrots, but
there might be another side to it,.
Senator James is very sick man,
and is confined in the John Hopkins
Hospital. If James lives Kimbail's
act in calling on his friends to sup
port the Senator looks generous, and
then should James die before the
primary Kimball would be certain of
the nomination. 1t looks a bit like
the Fayette statesman might be I'M
consciously flirting with death.

= We will soon have the liquor bust
ness wiped out, and will then go after
tobacco. The anti-tobacco campaign
should not take us long, and besides
we could agitate some other reform
along with it as a side line, and we
suggest neckties. Few human ex-
travigances are so wholly inexcus-
able as the use of neckties. Millions
of perfectly good dollars that could
be used for buying bread for the poor
or sending missionaries to heathern
lands, are annually wasted on
neckties. Valuable cloth and the
richest of dyes are wasted for no bet
ter purpose than to adorn the necks
of men. Gewgaws for women are par
donable; it is part of their charm,
but mere man has no moral right to
waste the nations substance on his
personal adornment. The necktie

The teaching is free to all and books
will be supplied to those unable to buy

favored in the matter of education to
seek out the illiterates in your neigh

night schools. Many of them may
feel timid about the matter, but give
them encouragement, and show them
the advantage to be gained, both for

Because German domination would
crush to chaos all that we as 4 peo-
pie trained 20 freedom, hold dear,
our first purpose must be to win the
war. But in the meantime we must
lay Solid foundation for our moral
and economic existance after the war
is ended. One of the gravest dan
gers that cOnfronts us, and it is one
that attends all great wars of long
duration, is a lowering of the moral
standards. The moral standard is
the measure of nations greatness.
Wealth wasted may be regained, men
killed in battle may be restored by
time, but a descending scale of morals
is an irreparable calamity. Even a
defensive war whets the human ap-
petite to destroy and heats the human
appetite for blood. Hate is INSOFAR
able from the event of war, and how
ever necessary, 1t is a passion at vari-
ance with that finer fiber of society
that lies as the foundation stone of
morals. The evil tendency of war
should be fifty recognized, and every
possible effort be made to abort its
its baneful infiunce on the morals of
the nation.

was Mrs, Henry Russell, formerly Ethel

France.
American women have filled such an
enormous place in the war that it would

said. The thousands Of women who
got to tie other side gave themselves up
completely to working for the soldiers,

American women and we never asked
the French maids to do anything that
we wouldn't do ourselves and not only
did we do all this manual work at first,
but later, when Il was necessary, we
would take a hand at a broom OF at

stored truck load OF sugar into the
basement.
The soldiers over there showed the
most complete gratitude and courtesy
to every American woman that it made
It intensely pleasant to be doing things

PEACE GUARANTY
Monroe Principle Applied
to Europe is Panacea
Knox Suggests
FREE SEAS PREMATURE
Action Delayed on Resolution
Limiting ENJOYS 10
Fixing Terms

washington, Dec. ia new Amer
loan doctrine-which would really be
the Monroe Doctrine applied TO
Europe, with the United States, Great
Britain, France, Italy and Japan en-
forcing it--was advocated in the Sen
ate yesterday by Senator Knox in the
course Of speech in which he urged a
pcstponement of the questions Of a
lezgue of nations and the freedom OF
the seas at the Peace Conference.
Senator Knox declared that the
function OF the Peace Conference is
10 settle issues with the enemy.
Definition Of the freedom OF the seas
and the formation OF a league of ma
fions. he said, ARE issues between
the Allies themselves" and as a means
OF enforcing peace in Europe in the
future he suggested "a definite en-
tente, provided it be n small and nat
iiral one, bringing only limited and
appropriate obligations"
Before the Senator spoke the Sen.
ate Committee on Foreign Relations
met and discussed his resolution,
which declares it to be the sense of the
United States Senate that the forma-
ton OF any league OF nations and dis
cussion of the freedom of the seas be
postponed until after the treaties OF
peace shall have been concluded.
No Action by Committee
The committee took no action on
his resolution nor on Senator John.
sons resolution requesting statements
from the State and War Departments
on the American policy toward Russia,
which 1t also considered.
Senator Hitchcock, chairman OF the
committee, said after the meeting
that action was deferred, as many
Senators thought passage of the Knox
resolution at this time might embar
rass President Wilson at the preliin-
mary peace conferences. The Demo.
cratic members of the committee
argued that any action by the Senate
might hinder the President and that
full discussion could be had on any
questions involved in concluding peace
after the President had completed his
mission abroad The Republicans on
the committee insisted that it was the
duty as we'll as the right of the Senate
TO act on questions concerning peace,
but the committee voted 10 postpone
further consideration Of the resolu-
lion for the present.
Senator Knox in his speech quoted
President Wilson's latest address to
Congress to show that the armistice
has made 1t impossible for Germany TO
renew the war, He continued:
ut is clear, then, that our attention
should now be directed to the enforce
mcnt of the remainder Of our war
aims, now best expressed as restitu
tiUn. reparation and guarantees: and
to the purpose to complete. to perfect
and to guarantee those aims. aS we
