They pointed out that about fifty-two
per cent of the btum;nous coal mined
in the central competitive field came
from the western and central Penn
sylvania fields, much of which is used
in steel mills and furnaces about
Pittsburgh. The consumption o. coal
by the average steel company is as
much as 10000 tons a day. When the
mines closed there was an abundance
of fuel in sight. but for almost three
weeks no union mines have been op-

JUDGE BEVERLY EVANS
RAPS KANSAS GOVERNOR

Macon, Ga, May Sin his charge
to the Federal Grand Jury Judge
Beverly D. Evans took to task the
Governor of Kansas who demanded
that the promoters of the movement
to reduce cotton acreage be preseccut
eded under the antitrust law. Judge
Evans declared that the movement
was but an expression that when
there is an ever production of cotton
to such an extent that the value of
the product is less than the cost of
production, it is the course of wis
dom to curtail the acreage and de-
vote the surplus land to other crops,
suggesting food crops, og which there
is a shortage.

be the heaven of all these creeds,

we shine in this life
It is the measure of good, not the
distinctive methods employed in at
tanning if, that must be kept ever in
mind, These very distinctive methods
are changing with the ages and these
days and years we lose arguing 9bout

of much good We cannot boast of our
way of doing a commission of Gods
work but that we destroy the good in
the performance Of that commission.

GERMANY WILL SIGN

One can see that the matter of sign
ing is a rather difficult problem with
the Germans, but it is time to take
the medicine,-a Huns medicine.
That the German delegates at the
peace conference will have to sign the
terms given is matter certain. They
will strive to find a way out, but
there is none other than placing their
names on the dotted lines This is the
day when the enemy must pay for his
folly We have pledged to make him
pay That day has come Germany is
as helpless as her conquerors could
make her. What is there to do but
sign? A failure to agree will but
throw the country into an agony
thousand times worse. A military rule
of the whole of Germany with a levy
of a tribute from each man and from
every industry in the county would be
far worse.
The setting up of an economic
blockade would still be frithgful in its
effect as it was during the war An
economic war against Germany, aside
from the brutal aspect, would be as
terrible as anything the allies could
impose. The Germans know their
power is broken. They know their
pride is humbled. They may hate
their conqueror but that will get
them nothing They will sign
These are predictions, but mark
them. Germany will come over exact.
ly as it has been specified that she
shall. There will be no changing or
thinks of the pride of q German, the
3igning can be considered no light
thing, but this is the day of reckon
,ng, Let them be brought low. This
was the day we were looking for, hop
ing for, praying for. The day of re-
trbution is here. Germany has been
oyertaken by Nemisis. The folly of
mIitarsm must be paid for That
Germany will pay to the fullest far
ling cannot be doubted. That is a
hing her cOnquerors will see through

WHAT THE ROWS ALL ABOUT
TOLD so ALL MAY KNOW

This Italian situation can be sum
med up pretty much as follows;
You are all familiar that Italy runs
down into the Mediterranean in the
shape of long boot leg
All around the eastern coast Of
Italy is that great Adriatic sea.
At the head Of the Adriatic sea at
the top Of Italy is Venice, and across
the narrow part OF the sea in what
was Hungary, is Trieste.
The countries on the other side Of
the Adriatic are principally Monte
negro, Herzegovina, Dalmatia, Bos-
MIA, Coastland and few Of the
smaller little sections.
At the beginning Of the war the
position Of Italy in the war was some.
what in doubt.
England, the worlds greatest
promiscr, was joined by France and
certain inducements were held out
to Italy to Join the allies.
Among these inducements practi-
cally promised by England and
France. were to give the other side Of
the Adriatic over to Italy.
The war has resulted in such a
manner that England cannot make
good its promise to Italy.
The whole scheme was formulat-
ed in London under what is now
known and referred to in the press
dispatch rs the London treaty.
The principal reason why England
and France cannot make their
promises good is that the turn Of the
war developed what is now known ~
the Jugo Slavs.
The Jugo Slays are really as an
cient race Ms are the Italians and
the nation born as result Of the
war is called Jugo Slavia
