GHRMAsY.s PEACE LEAGUE

1t is extremely edifying to find Ger
many solemnly proposing a league OF
nations TO maintain world-peace. The
plan is put forward by Matthias Err
berger. a leader OF the Centrist party
in the Reichstag. There is little
doubt that he is the mouthpiece of the
Government, for Chancellor Won Hertz
ling himself, in recent address TO
the Reichstag. suggested the same
policy which Erzherger outlines in
detail
There is TO be group of world
powers, banded together in fedora
ton permitting each TO retain its au-
tonomy, but using the combined pow
er OF all to make members behave
themselves and prevent outsiders from
making trouble. There is TO be court
OF arbitration, TO whose verdicts every
member must submit. There is TO be
a reduction of armament. Armies and
navies are TO be used only for policing
purposes.
This is precisely what the Allies have
been planning ever since they attain
er unity of thought and purpose in
their war against German aggression.
1t is what the United States has been
urging for years. 1t is what Presi-
dent Wilson is demanding as the first
duty of the peace conference at the
close of the war 1t is undoubtedly
the very thing that will be done, in
order TO insure that there shall never
be a repetition of this war. But it is
not at all plain that Germany is going
TO have anything to do with it.
Herr Erzherger is transparency
trying TO steal the Allies thunder and
juggle Germany into the place of lead
ership in the new federation. 1t is to
consist of Germany France, Great
Britain, the United States and Russia.
Others might be admitted later. but
these are the only powers mentioned.
Germany as the head of a world
peace federation--this indeed is a sub
lime subject for contemplation, Ger
many, the most militaristic and crimi-
nal nation of recorded history, her
hands stained with the blood of un-
counted millions. her pockets stuffed
with the treasure of ruined nations.
her armies and leaders still unpun-
ished for their sins. showing no sign
of repentance or thought of restitu-
ton, posing as an imperial Prince of
Peace to lead the world into the way
or righteousness. As Artemus Ward
used to say, This is 2 mulch"
There is already in existence a
league TO enforce peace. The Allies
constitute that league. Its present
purpose is to crush Germany. the mas
ter-criminal. as the necessary pre-
requisite of establishing its beneficient
system on solid and lasting basis.
1t is quite capable of doing its work
and laying its future plans without
any impertinent help from the Huns.

PRISONERS

The most remarkable feature of the
recent fighting has been the number
of enemy prisoners taken by the AL
lies. The bags" of the Germans in
their victorious progress of last spring
and summer have already been great
ly surpassed There has been moth
ing to compare with il since the gil
gantic successes and disasters of the
Russian army in the first two years
of the war.
II is impossible to give precise fig
ures because the lists are not report
ed promptly. and the totals change so
rapidly from day to day. We shall not
go far wrong, however, if we estimate
that in the two and half months from
the launching of Marshal Foch's Of
fensive up TO the end of September,
the British and French have each cap
tured about 100000. the Americans
nearly $4,000 and the Italians 5000.
In Palestine Gen. Allenby has taken
around $4,000. In Macedonia the Al
lies have rounded up probably 10000.
In Siberia the Czecho-Slovaks and the
allied expeditions have taken consid-
cradle numbers. most of whom after
being disarmed have been turned
loose. Perhaps 10000 altogether
would be moderate guess.
These figures, it will be seen, add
up to about $4,000 That is at the
rate of nearly 10000 month. There
is no reason to suppose that the pace
cannot be kept up. Add that number
to the 100000 a month that we are
sending to France, remembering that
the Allies losses by capture are now
almost negligible, and you have a net
gain of no less than 100000 men a

Shipyards on the Pacific Coast. the
Shipping Board recently announced,
have delivered their first 100000
tons OF completed vessels. To date
these west coast yards have turned out
about half Of the total tonnage pro-
duction
The Pacific yards started we'll and
apparently are keeping up their good
work. There was a time when some
people accused the West of not being
interested in the war Ever since
this country declared war, however,
the folks beyond the Rocky Mountains
have spoken through deeds rather
than words. and the evidence all
points to their loyalty, their enter
prise and determination to do every
thing possible, with all the rest Of
the country. TO win this war and win
il right.
It could not he otherwise. A cause
that can bring together in eager CO.
operation the justice and deeency-
loving peoples from the far corners of
the world could not leave sectional in
difference within the borders of a
country so dedicated to this cause as
is the United States of America.
West coast shipbuilding records are
not simply records of local achieve
ments. They express the national
ability and temper, the undivided
American purpose and the American
punch to carry it out which are the
same on the Pacific and Atlantic
coasts as they are in the great in
terror, from Canada to Mexico.

RED CROSS MAKING MONEY

Wedpesday was. a.. bysSt day for
the members of the Hustonville Red
Cross Chapter. First place they
came down and spread a splendid
dinner at the Baughman sale and
made snug sum. During the day
a small box of candy was sold to the
highest bidder and was knocked off
to Bolivar Bond, who gave it back
to the Red Cross ladies. 1t was again
put up and Hughes & McCarty paid
a similar amount and gave it back.
Sam M. Owens next paid SO for it
and presented it to the Chapter. Col
G. B. Swinebroad was the next sue
cessful bidder and he got it at SIS.
He also gave it back and when put
up again Mrs. w. L. Neal paid SIS
for it. She gave it back and R. NJ
Houchin, of Elixir Springs, paid
$3.50 for it and presented it to the
ladies of the chapter, who put it up
and it was later knocked off to w.
P. Kincaid for $3.50. Then j. E.
Wright bought it for $3.50; John B.
Dinwiddie for $3.50, S. M. Owens
for 81; John Murphy for $3.50; H.
c. Baughman for SIS; G. w. Owens
for 81; j. N. Cash for 81; Ed Pey-
ton for 81: A. R. Spears for 81, and
then Col. John B. Dinwiddie bought
it for SIS. He returned the candy
to the Red Cross ladies who sold It
at an entertainment at Hustonville
that night and realized $61.50. Dur
ing the dav the ladies made close to
$3.50 for their good cause. This is
what we call real patriotism. and
we heartily congratulate the ladies
on it.

CONSIDERABLE WHISKY HERE

There is in town, in the hands of
the various officers, some 10 or 20
gallons of whisky taken from those
charged with Bookkeeping and having
more of it on hand than the law al
lows a certain class of people 90
have. The courts have decided that
some of this booze is confiscated
property and it will very likely he
poured out. This paper stands for
the carrying out of the instructions
of the courts and its editors are as
dry as the dryest portion of the
great Sahara desert. but it considers
the destroying of whisky as an iniu-
dicious act just at this time. Alcohol
is an essential in both the medicinal
and mechanical world. we are told,
and if we are bound to have it, WHY
wantonly destroy that from which
alcohol can be extracted. and which
Is no ioIfgeI King made Wfsa;
waste makes woeful want. is a say
ing as old as it is true. There is no
time when waste should be tolerated,
and certainly not now. when there
is such great demand for everv-
thing. Don't keep the whisky to be
drunk, but preserve it that it may
be applied to some use that good
may come from it. Whisky is almost
a necessity in certain cases of sick
ness. Why not turn those 10 or 20
gallons over to the government that
it may be sent to the government
hospitals over the country? If good
can come out of such an evil as
whisky is, for heavens sake let's
get it.

BAUcHMAws BIG LAND SALE

The sale Of the RI. C. Baughman
farm wednesday brought a big
crowd to town and the sale was
satisfactory one in every sense.
Messrs. Hughes & McCarty, Stan
ford's wide-a-wake real estate men,
conducted the sale and their work
is being highly complimented by
both Mr. Baughman and those who
attended the sale. Boliver Bond,
the great Versailles auctioneer, was
on the block and he made it inter-
esting alike for bidder and specta-
tor. The ladies of the Hustonville
Red Cross Chapter furnished a splen-
did dinner and made snug sum out
of it. 1t was beautifully served and
there were good things in abundance
for all. The land was first offered
in parcels and then as a whole.
Tract No. 4, containing four acres
and fraction, was knocked down to
F. j. Conn at $3.50 per acre; tract
No. 2, having in it a little over five
acres, to w. r. Kincaid at $255 per
acre, and tract No. 8, containing five
and hall, acres to John S. Murphy
at $500 per acre. These were then
offered as q whole and knocked off
to Eugene Hutchinson at S340 per
acre. Tract Ne. 4. 80 48-1OO acres,
was sold to J. M. Reynolds, of Way
nesburg, at $298 per acre; tract No.
5, 26 acres and fraction to Otis
Florence at 1928; tract No. 6, 45
$1,000 acres, to G.. B. Swinebroad,
of Lancaster, at S135.25; tract No
Z, % 5000 acres to j. H. Wright
at $140.50 yer acre; tract No. 8,
81 acres, to G. E. Tate at $S1 per
acre. The whole place was then of
fered and was sold to G. B. Swine
broad, of lancaster, at $3.50 per
acre. There are about 1913 acres in
the tract. IT is hoped that Mr.
Swinebroad bought the place to live
on and that Stanford may soon have
him and his excellent family as cit
liens. Mr.. Baughman's palatial home
was not offered, he keeping that and
some Is acres of land around it.
The sale was one of the biggest and
best that has been made here in
years and Hughes & McCarty have
much reason to be proud of it.

SWINEBROAD'S GOOD SALE

Col. G. B. Swinebroad, of Lancas-
ter, was in town Wednesday, hav-
ing come over to look after some
business affairs as well as to attend
the sale Hughes & McCarty made
for H. C. Baughman. Col. Swine
broad had on Tuesday before made
an excellent sale near Danville. He
disposed of the F.. |. Jones place, one
mile from Danville, to H. B. Peel, of
Boyle. There are IA acres in the
tract and on it is a comfortable six
room bungalow and other improve
ments. Mr.. Peel paid $8,632.50 or
a fraction over $616 per acre. This
is a record price for land in that
county. On Wednesday next, oath,
Col. Swinebroad will sell at public
auction his splendid 24O-acre farm,
between Hubble and Hedgeville, add

BEWARE OF CLOGGED
LIVER THIS WEATHER

Beware of clogged up liver this
time of year. You should take plen-
ty of Vim Hepatica for keeping your
liver, kidneys and bowels free of the
poisonous substances that pile up in
your system so fast in the winter
months as the result of your eating
so much heavy food and not getting
enough exercise to keep your liver
and other organs of elimination ac-
tive as they should be.
These poisons lower your vitality.
They make you the more susceptible
to colds, grips, sore throat, pneumo-
mia and catarrh. This Vim Hepatica
prescription is just the thing for
you. 1t will not only give you a
thorough cleansing of these organs,
but will tone you up and make you
feel your old self again. Get it from

NO MATINEE FOR THE WHIP

owing TO the scarcity Of coal,
Manager Owens, of the opera house,
was unable to get lights for Monday
afternoon to show "The Whip" so
the great eight-reel picture will be
shown only on Monday night. There
will be two shows-one at Z and the
other at o'clock. This is probably
the greatest picture that has been
shown at the opera house here since
"The Crisis" THE Whip" was
shown at the Alamo in Cincinnati
for two solid weeks and to crowded
houses all the time. 1t must be a
good one to draw that way.
