"There Shall Be War No More"

Most OF us realize in some degree what horrible
thing war is 1t can be stopped without league
of nations. A league OF nations is now in plain sight.
The OF few United States Senators will decide the
matter whether shall have this league OF nations
whether it shall be indefinitely put off
No league of nations can be perfect to begin with.
The United States cannot enter into league OF nations
and receive pledges from other nations without giving
some pledges OF her own We believe the people OF the
United States overwhelmingly in favor OF the league
OF nations which is within reach Any Senators
who hinder oppose will be rebuked by their constit-
uency and condemned by poserity

Austria has passed the treaty
made with her through the National

Allies. There have been the same
criticisms that were made of the
Germany treaty, which is natural
since they were much alike, except
the greater lieniency of the one
with Austria. Protests and refusals
to sign were made at first, but there
was no other course open TO the
defeated country but to sign.

Trade has begun with Germany in
a small way. II is significant that
the first cargo was a consignment
of potash. This is a product which
Germany has supplied to us for
many years. II was thought that
the war had caused American
sources of supply TO be found and
utilized, but it is apparently advan-
tageous to buy from Germany.
Other products will soon be on the
market. II is said Germany is plan
ming to recover the markets by ex-
cellence Of her products, which is
legitimate business.

there are pictured as extremely bad

that they are nearing the former

ANOTHER ESTIMATE OF
CROP CONDITIONS.

With the growing season practical
lily ended, except for late tobacco and
q very small amount of latest corn
that is now maturing, Kentucky's
crop prospects now indicate the pro-
duction Of approximately 425,64s, 900
pounds of tobacco compared to 427,-
10000 pounds last year. The United
States entire tobacco crop this year
is now estimated at 1,278,062, 90
pounds, compared to 1,348,019, 900
pounds last year, or about 4.6 per
cent decrease. W.
These estimates were issued at
Louisville through the office of H. F.
Bryant, Kentucky field agent of the
United States Bureau of Crop Esti-
mates, and the following estimates
Of other crops produced in Kentucky
this season, with comparisons with
1918 crops, were issued at the same
time; oats 8,536,000 bushels compared
to 100000 last year. barley $4,000
bushels compared to 10000, pota-
toes 4,502,00 bushels compared to
5,625,000, sweet potatoes 1,O94,0O0
bushels compared to 1,235,000, sor-
ghum molasses 2,559,0O gallons COM
pared to 2,S26,00O gallons last year,
clover seed $4,000 bushels compared
to $4,000 apples, 2,025,OO0 bushels
compared to 3,7sO,OOO bushels in
1913 and peas 10000 bushels COM
pared to $4,000 last year.
The widespread drouth in Ken
lucky this summer damaged practi-
cally all late growing crops more or
less, but the more favorable weather
of the last few weeks has helped late
tobacco, corn and pastures to grow
out some. The drouth was very ir-
>regula and spotted all over the state,
some local sections having fairly
good growing season while adjoin
ing sections were parched.
Stock water was scarce in some
counties and pastures are still not
generally very good, tho they have
improved much during the last month
and some sections now have good
grass.
The hemp crop in the Blue Grass
counties was cut to an exceedingly
small acreage this season and most
of what was grow apparently will
give light yield.

Shall Philippines Be Dry Too

Manila, P. |. Oct.16.-Still in doubt
as to whether it will be held that the
constitutional "dry" amendment APP
plies to the Philippine islands, local
i. interests are aligning themselves to
)carry the fight into the legislature,
which is committed to consider the
question at it's regular session, which
opens October 16.
The president of the Philippine
federation of labor is thus far the
most prominent figure among the
forces of the "wets". If a compromise
could be agreed to whereby imported
intoxicants were barred, it would find
hearty support, but as a matter Of
fact the medical profession is a unit
in declaring that the local products
are much more injurious to health
than are the imported.
In legal circles tire is growing be-
lief that it will be held that the pro-
hibition amendment applies here, but
the enforcement act, if the request Of
the Philippine council Of state is
granted, will specially exclude the
islands from it's provisions, leaving
the entire question in the hands of
the Philippine legislature for de-
cision.

lis scarce article in Louisville
at present. One broker here to-

car loads and cannot fill. five per-
cent of his booked orders. Re-
tail grocers are charging all the
way from 1 to ID cents a pound
for sugar,t that is the grocers who
have sugar on hands. Most of
them cannot get sugar and when
they do it is not more than 100 or
200 pounds at a time. This is
doled out to select customers in
quantities of one, two and three
pounds every two or three days.
Recently the Kentucky Fair
Price listing commission fixed IL
cents pound as fair price for
sugar. Retailers assert they
would be glad to buy large
quantities from jobbers at IL
cents wholesale, but the sugar is
not to be had.
The opinion prevails in some
quarters here that there is not
an actual shortage of sugar, but
that wholesalers operating under
federal license are boarding
sugar and holding out for higher
prices.

gate Morrow's charge that geog-

bond, and that if that bond had
been broken the publishers would
pay the penalty.

vestigate Morrow's charge and
that if they proved true restitu-
ton would be made to those
over charged. He said:
"The contract provides that
books are to be sold in Kentucky
as cheaply as in any other state
and if investigation bears out hi
charge that the difference in the
books is but subterfuge, pen
atty and reimbursement will fol-
