A CORRECTION.

Last week in our court notes we
said that Jack Dawson, of near Bu-
ford, had been tried and committed
to the Western Kentucky Asylum, as
a lunatic or person of unsound mind.
The article should have read wv. j..
Dawson" instead of Jack. or l.. j.
Jack insists that he has not been
charged with, tried for lunacy, much
less convicted; therefore, agreeable
to Jacks wishes and our pleasure,
we make this correction of the error
made in last weeks issue of the Re-
publican.

Bethmann- Hollweg, former German

to surrender himself for trial by the
Allies, but withdrew the offer on the
specific request of the Government
which at that time took the view
that Germans accused of causing the
war or of acts in violation OF the
rules of civilized warfare should be
tried either before a local court or
German judges. His attitude at that

Henry Watterson Says Trap

Britain

Henry Watterson, president Of the
League for the preservation of Amer
lean Independence, says the League
of Nations is a trap set by England
and baited with the word peace" in
a telegram ne sent a few days ago to
Henry A. Wise Wood. secretary of the
organization, at New York.
Mr. Watterson urges the league to
renewed activity in a fight against
the treaty and says the United
States Senate will be recreant in its
duties if it fails to investigate the
truth of the charge"
Colonel Watterson is now in Miami,
Fla. but his message was forwarded
to New York from Louisville. He
sent the message here in a letter to
his home in JeffersontOwn.
Copies Given Out.
At his direction it vas sent to
Western Union officials last night,
who were instructed to give copies to
the press.
His message follows:
Louisville, Ky, June 2S, 1919.
Henry A. Wise Wood, 25 Madi-
son avenue. New York:
THE League of Nations is
trap set by England and baited
with the word peace to catch un-
wary America. II puts the Unit
ed States at a disadvantage. Its
exposition by sufficient inquiry
will establish the truth of this.
The Senate will stand in its own
light and prove recreant to its
duty to the country, and the peo-

The League for the Preservation
Of American independence, of which
Mr.. Watterson is president and di-
rector for Kentucky, began a nation
wide campaign several weeks ago to
bring popular support to the members
Of the United States Senate who OPP
pose the ratification of the League OF
Nations unless it be amended to
safeguard the traditional policies of
the United States" according to its
printed platform mailed out the first
part of this month.
The prospectus of the league states
that it is nonpartisan and its chief
object is to preserve the sovereignty
and present form of government of
the United States" All persons who
are in sympathy with its aims and
have a respect for the Declaration Of
Independence, the Federal Constitu-
ton, Washington Farewell Address
and the Monroe Doctrine are urged
to become members and contribute
to the support of the energetic ma
tional campaign that must be put on
foot at once if our country is to be
restrained from renouncing its funda-
mental policies and prevented from
committing itself to engage in disas-
trous foreign entanglements." Sub
scriptions from 81 to $4,000 are
solicited

again at a lower point on the levee to
be exposed In greater thickness as the
river recedes. If a way could be pro-
yided to take the mud away after It
has been washed off, the situation
would be greatly a~lleviated.
The river forecast is for a stationery
stage for the mex "a hours followed
by a slight rise. The rise will be very
caster, as the volume of the Ohio river
rise has been spread out and eva porated
to such an extent that It will affect
the Memphis gauge but little.

greatest possible hair beauty and be

the hair it is never wise to use a
makeshift. but is always advisable to
use n preparation made for shampoo
ing only. Many Of u friends say
they get the best results from a simple

use this at a cost OF about 5 cents
a shampoo by getting some canthroS
from your druggist and di~ssolving a

This makes enough shampoo liquid to
