CORDELE, Nov. 18.-When the

court was opened Judge o. T. Cover
bore down hard on the local gentle
man poker player with strong con-
demnation. Complains had been
made that young boys of the COM

that a 5000 fine would be a light

Judge Cover also hit at violation
of the prohibition laws and urged the
jury to make careful investigation
of such abuses. The court then went
into the civil branch of the business
of the session and disposed of num-

L.aurens %, 90 OBales
Short Of Last Year

DUBLIN, Nov. 18.-Just how
small crop Laurens county will
make this year in cotton is illus
trated very forcibly by the ginning
figures for the county up to Nov. 1,
this year. There were 1929 bales
up to the same period last year.
This report shows a decrease Of
1925 bales in the county's crop
from last year, and gives some idea
of what the weather and the boil
weevil did for the county this year.
1t now seems doubtful if the county
will pass the 20,00O-bale total, ac-
cording to the outlook just now.

AS LONDON SEES SENATE.

Speaking of the American sem
ate's treatment of the peace treaty
a leading London paper, the Daily
News, says: "The American SEN
ate is busy emasculating the
League of Nations covenant. The
covenant promises to be a singu-
larly pallied affair after the sem
ate gets through with it. Il + The
attitude Of the senate, if it can
not command our admiration, need
not provake our reproaches since
it is actuated not so much by hos
tility to Europe as to President
Wilson; but while we may under
stand some of the causes which
are holding the peace treaty, it
does not in any way relieve Eu-
rope from serious and possibly
tragic embarrassments for which
the American obstruction is re-
sponsible."

peared the vision nearer, clearer
than ever before of life on earth
less and less under the deadenlng

triumphant over physical power

vance the cause of public enemies
