Warsaw.-A Polish official report
concerning the rioting in Posen on
the arrival of Ignace Jan Paderewski,
who was on his way here, says the
trouble began when allied and Amer.
lean flags were hoisted over the city
hall.
The Germans demanded that the
flags be hauled down. The Poles re
fused to acquiesce, whereupon the
Germans brought up machine guns and
began firing In the streets, driving
back the crowds and dispensing the
Polish troops.
Finally the German officials took
down the flags. Meanwhile the Poles
reassembled and began to return the
German fire. The fighting continued
from 2 o'clock in the afternoon until
7 o'clock.
The Germans provoked another Incl.
dent by trying to prevent Paderewski
from going about the streets. They
called on the British colonel, Wade,
and told him that If Paderewsh was
permitted to go about it would be the
cause of trouble between the Polish
and German populations. Col. Wade
made no answer. He merely turned
his back on the Germans and got into
o motor car with Paderewski. The ar
rival of Paderewski and British and
American officers has created much
enthusiasm here. The hope is express
ed that their arrival will stamp out
Bolshevism and prevent anticipated
trouble in Warsaw.

VOLUNTEER OATS IN
 COCONlNO COUNTY

M. T. Connors, the first permanent settler in Spring Valley community, Coconino county, relates pioneer ex- perience in 1906 when he went thirty miles to secure a mower and hay baler to harvest small field of oats which he had observed growing vol unteer for number of years with no one to harvest them. Twenty-two tons of oats were cut from the field and baled for hauling twelve miles to the Santa Fe railroad at Maine.
 MT. Connors attended the first meeting of the twenty or more fam lilies now living in Spring Valley for the purpose of uniting with the Co., conino County Farm Bureau. Mir. Connors further stated that an early settler preceding him had lived for short time in the valley and plant. ed to oats this field which several years later grew the volunteer crop he harvested. This meeting of farm CTS and their families was full of in- terest to the three agricultural exten- sion workers invited to attend.
 Besides the adaptation to small grain, potatoes have proven a most profitable crop in Spring Valley. The small investment due to cheap land and the excellent quality of the seed potatoes grown at the altitude of over 7.000 feet make this community an in- viting one to the pioneer farmer.

TO BE Ex-KAIsER's LAWYER

Because of the excellence of a law brief prepared by Charles E. George. a Detroit lawyer, on the question of whether the ex-kaiser should be ex- tradited from Holland, he has been retained as one of the leading counsel to represent the interests of William Hohenzollern in any proceedings that may be instituted by the allies. Mir. George has the reputation of being a political economist and lawyer of note. He is the author of many legal treatises.
 Mir. George was asked as an an- thority on international and extradi. tion law for an opinion by Copen- hagen officials, and his brief cover ing the subject was very generally commented on in international law journals. It is considered an able ex- position of the law governing the case.
 It is understood Mir. George will be one of three lawyers from the United States who will serve the ex-kaisers interests and defend his rights. Other counsel will join from Berlin. Vienna, and Belgium. The case for the Allies will be led by Sir Gordan Hewart, so- licitor general of England, with asso- ciates selected by other ally nations.
 Mir. George is the editor of "The Lawyer and Banker" and "The South ern Bench and Bar Review of New Orleans" a recognized authority on unusual legal questions. He is mar ried, his wife being the former Miss Selma Klein of Milwaukee, her family ranking in court circles in both Ger many and France.

WET AND DRY VOTE NEXT YEAR

| Secretary of State Merlin Hull de-
clares that there will be statewide
wet and dry vote taken in Wisconsin
next year. This statement occurs in
a letter sent to the Wisconsin Anti
Saloon League in response to an in
quiry from them. The letter is as
follows:
I'm reply to your inquiry regarding
the referendum on the Mulberger law,
which, as you say, will result virtual
ly in wet and dry election contest, |
would state that the ballot on this
question will read:
"'Shall Chapter 556 of the laws Of
1919 entitled, An act to suspend the
operation Of Chapter &c Of the stat
utes Of 1917 entitled, Excise and the
sale of intoxicating liquors and to
create Sections 1861 to 1922, in.
elusive of the statutes, relating to in
toxicating liquors, to provide for the
enforcement of Article IS Of the Con-
stitution Of the United States, provid-
ton and defining Intoxicating liquor"
be continued of force and effect?'
"You will note that the question sub
mitted is whether the act shall be con-
tinued in force and effect, NOT wheth-
er or not it shall be repealed. A per-
son desiring to wipe the la7t off the
the books will have to vote no. The
drys will vote no. the vets, yes If
the voters give full expression, with
a clear understanding of the question,
we shall know how Wisconsin feels
on the question of standing by the
Constitution.
"The principal dangers in the cleo
ton are
First: Many voters do not know
the Mulberger law well enough to
know whether to vote yes or no.
Second: Many voters do not know
that such an election has been ordered.
Third: Nearly forty per cent. Of
our voters do not vote in any election,
primary or general.
ct is hoped that such campaign
! of education will be conducted that ev-
cry voter will be gotten to the polls
with clear understanding Of the is
sue.
Very truly yours,
(Signed) MERLIN HULL

DON'T FAIL TO CAN FRUIT
BECAUSE OF LACK OF SUGAR

Don't let surplus fruit go to waste
because you cannot obtain sugar to
use for preserving purposes. Fruit
can be successfully canned without it
and it can be sweetened when served
next winter, or strip can be used in
place of sugar to sweeten it now.
To can without sugar, simply fill the
jars containing the fruit with clean,
hot water, instead of the usual syrup,
and process the jars in a hot-water
bath. The fruit will not spoil, but it
will not have quite as fine a flavor
and color as that which is packed in
strip.
Directions for canning by the "cook-
ed-in-t he-can" method should be care
| fully followed to can successfully with
out sugar, the Department of Agri-
culture suggests.
Fruits canned without sugar are es-
pecially good in salads, desserts, pie
filings, ices, and in fruit punches
They can be made into jams and mar
malades when sugar is obtainable
Fruit juices take no sugar and THEN
uses are just as varied during the win
ter season as are the fruits put up I'M
sweetened. These fruit juices are al
so available for jelly at future time
when sugar is more plentiful. Veg
etables need no sugar, and plenty O.
canned vegetables are always accept
able during the winter months.
Fruit and vegetables may be higl
and sugar scarce, but the margin o.
difference in price between the home
canned and the commercially canned
product is likely to be as great as
when both fresh fruit and vegetables
and canned goods were lower in price
The wise are still practicing home
canning, sugar or no sugar.

To all these faults found with the bin
Mr.. Mathis replied that it was impos-
sible to find or construct a law that
would suit everybody or protect every
body That the greatest good to the
greatest number was the only safe rule
Mr.. Perry, of Lee county, said it was
his opinion that the bill was a good
one to pass. The mere fact that most
of the lawyers were so set upon its
defeat strengthened his belief that it
was a mighty good thing for the lay
men in the house TO vote for. He then
recounted practically his own expert
ences in Florida while he was a resi-
dent of another state, saying that he
had paid something like FIVE hundred
dollars for that experience of others.
With all this, however, only % votes
could be corraled for the bill while
four more, or q voted against it.
