THE 4. =. CONGRESS-
FAVORS FREE IRELAND

Washington, Jan. 30.-The House
Foreign Affairs Committee soon will
report out a resolution declaring for
DIFFERENTIATION for Ireland.
Inquiry among members of the
committee today disclosed that ma
jority of them favored this action
The committee will meet in execu-
tive session Saturday morning to for
mulate it's report on the several Irish
resolutions now pending.
The resolution introduced by Rep
resentativa Gallagher, of Illinois, on
which extensive hearings have been
held, provides that the American dele
gates at the Versailles peace con-
ference he instructed to lay before
the conference the right OF Ireland
to freedom, Independence and self
determination.
1t is stated that the com mittee win
not go this far. This CONSENSUS OF
opinion seems to he that the measure
to be reported TO the House viii de-
clare it to be the sense Of the Con
gress that Irelasd should be accorded
the right of self-determination, but
that no direct method OF presenting
the matter to the British government
will be adopted.
A resolution of this character Is be
lieyed to be certain of passage in thu
House, where it is believed a larg
majority of the members favor SOM
action in behalf of the Irish people
It will be brought up most probabi!
on the next day for suspension of In
rules. and passed, hackers of tn
movement are confident.

FOCH SUGGESTED
FOR PRESIDENCY

As rsople OF democratic countries
like to honor their great military he
roes by placing them in important
civil positions. some of the people OF
France are beginning to consider
Marshal Foch as a candidate for the
presidency of the Republic. While
he has won notable success as COM
mander-il-chief OF all the allied ar
mics and is revered and honored In
all the allied countries for his master
ly strokes which sent the Huns down
In defeat. there is Of course some
question as 20 whether he possesses
the qualities requisite for a successful
statesman. In France. however, no
unusual craftsmanship is required OF
the president as, under the consti-
tuition, he has but comparatively little
real power; the president is made
more or less of a figurehead, most OF
the power of government being CIV
en- to other officials.

A severe cough is often followed by
a rough cough for which Chamber

a severe cold and coughed dreadfully
for days. | tried a number of cough
medicines but nothing did him any
good until | gave him Chamberlain S
Cough Remedy. It relieved his

REMOVES PROFIT LIMIT ON. FOOD

Washington. Jan. 31.-Removal oil
all restrictions on margins of profit
on foodstuffs. except cottonseed pro
duets and eggs, and cancellation OF
most license requirements on import
ers and distributors. effective to-
morrow, were announced today by the
food administration on authority of 4
proclamation signed by President VIII
son at Paris.
The following only remain under
license:
Importers and distributors OF
wheat, corn. oats, rye, barley, and
elevators and warehouses storing
these grains and rice.
Those Under License.
Importers, manufacturers and dis
tributors of fresh, canned or cured
beef, pork or mutton. cotton seed. cot
tonseed products, lard. butter. eggs
and sugar. Importers and manufac-
lures of rice, rice -four. wheat flour
and wheat mill feeds and cold stor-
age warehousemen.
The margin still allowed:
Retail cold storage and fresh eggs,
Z to cents a dozen; cottonSeed lard
substitutes at wholesale, IA to
cents a pound on more than fifty
pound packages. to 10 per cent on
less than fifty-pound packages. and
5 to 6 cents and Is to 22 per cent
at retail. Wholesale margins on eggs
differ according to the number OF
services performed by the wholesaler
or jobber.
In addition to the regulations can
celed by the proclamation. all remain
ing special regulations governing
manufacturers and distributors OF
butter were repealed.
Dealers Warned.
In making its announcement the
food administration warned dealers
that the provisions of the food con-
troll act. prohibiting profiteering and
unfair practices, would be rigidly en-
forced.
This action by the President virtu-
ally brings to an end the activities OF
the food administration. except for
the continued control of the expect
ed commodities. which. officials ex-
planned, is necessary, either because
of contractural obligations of the gov
eminent. or because Of determine
ton to maintain stabilized prices.
1t was predicted by these officials that
most remaining functions would
cease before March /.

number had been reduced to probably
1 100000.
The United States is likely to
have. even with industrial activity,
in the neighborhood of a million un-
employed due partly to the fact that
we have the highest ideals existing
anywhere. and when surroundings
are not equal to the ideals, there is
condition OF unrest.

THE ISSUE SUBMITTED
SHALL WE HAVE BETTER ROADS?

This question is put squarely up to the people of
Ohio county to be decided by election March g. 1919
Serious consideration should be given the matter of
working the roads OF Ohio county There only one sure
and certain of getting better roads and that by
putting the money for them Other counties get them
that way, but in no other way.
The present road tax to be voted on is only TWENTY
CENTS on the HUNDRED DOLLARS and will relieve
three thousand more road hands from much work
right in the busy 1t will supplement the
road fund to the extent of just about doubling it. 1t will
roads in good condition all the county and
will keep them that way by the of good tools mpe
mens and machinery placed and used in each COM \
muny to get good results.
The tax is small and is paid in just the man
and at the time other taxes paid and it only la
FIVE years Under the law and by orders of the Fisc
Court EACH MACISTERIAL DISTRICT AND EVER
ROAD IN THE COUNTY WILL RECEIVE ITS SHARE
IOF THE TAXES AND ROAD FUNDS.
No one will control this money but the best
brains of the county will be called to apply the funds
fairly and equtabiy in every community The Banks,
Railroads. Coal Mines, Corporations and Town Property
will pay than half of the taxes All these
profit by good roads.
The tax asked for will be sufficient to widen the
roads, many of the hills, and grade others, put the
roaabeds better ground, the roads well and
keep them dragged and drained and thereby make them
far convenient safer and better FOR travel The
roads are put to much greater and uses now than
in former years. Old methods simply fail to meet the
quirements. Proper methods of road work have to be
paid for.
Truly an emergency exists that ought to lead you
vote YES" on the road tax question We nothing
business and absolutely square deal the people
of the county in the matter of keeping good road
tenn for every community.
We expect by calling upon the brains the good sense
and sound judgment of thinking all the county
establish system of roads that will put the product
and of Ohio county in position to be marketed
with convenience and dispatch and at reasonable
This is fair square proposition of development and bet
