amendment to the constitution. Judge
Walter Evans, in federal district
court, here has granted a tenn
podary injunction to the Ken

WILSON STUDIES
PLANS FOR NEW
ROUND TABLE

WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.-President
Wilson today has before him plans
for a new national industrial con.
ference, drawn by his cabinet in a
session of more than two hours late
yesterday.
The cabinet agreed on the men,
bershlp and submitted the names to
the president for consideration. He
was expected to call the conference
within a few days. Leaders of the
public group in the old conference
will not be included in the new list,
it was understood.
The cabinet endeavored to pick
men and women to truly represent
the public, who will act independent
ly and not voice the convictions of
minorities. The group organization
followed in the first conference has
been wholly abandoned The posi-
ton of the administration is that
neither organized labor, representing
not more than 100000 of the 1O7,-
000, 600 Americans, nor capital, rep
resenting a vastly smaller number
shall have predominant voice.
An effort is to be made to have
the new conference avoid current
labor issues, such as the threatened
coal strike and the strike of steel
workers. Attention will be devoted
to planning a way to industrial peace
without reference to particular in
stances of dispute,

BLACK-DRAUGHT A
FAMILY MEDICINE
Some Kind of Stomach Trouble
With Cramps and Terrible
Pains Made This Okla
homa Mans Life Miser-
able Until Black
Draught Relieved
Him.

CHICKASHA, Okla.-Mrs. J. w
Walker recently said this: 1--WE use
Black-Draught as family medicine
and think it is the only liver med
icine made. My husband makes it
UP and uses it as a tonic as well
as a laxative. I use it for head
ache, sour stomach, a full heavy
feeling after meals, which I sup
pose is Indigestion, and it certainly
does me a lot of good.
my husband had some kind OF
stomach trouble-we don't know
just what. 1t would strike him just
any time in the day and cramp
or pain him just terribly bad
Someone told him how to make a
tea of the BIack-Draught, which he
did. 1t did him 80 much good, it
removed the cause and cured him
Since then we have praised the
Black-Draught to our friends, and
gladly do So"
Seventy years Of successful use
has made Thedford's Black-Draught
a standard household remedy. Every
member of the family at times
needs the help that Black-Draught
can give in cleansing the system
and preventing or relieving the
troubles that come from constipa-
ton, indigestion, lazy liver, etc.

Ware County Farmers
Have Good Cane Crop

WAYCROSS, Ga. - Farmers in
this section report the finest cane
crop they have seen in many years.
The season seemed to be especial,
suited to this crop and, in the alb
sence of sugar there will prob
ably be enough long sweeteninG
raised in this section to keep
sweet until sugar returns again
farmer who lives few miles west
Of Waycross exhibited some of his
cane here--the ribbon" variety
which he said would produce .
quart of juice to the stalk.
He stated that he had found thi
variety to be the most prolific and
the best syrup maker of any OF
the different varieties, and said
further that he, like a good many
other farmers, had learned that it
is one of the best money crops that
can be grown in this section. my
prediction, said Mr.. Lee, 'is that
there will be 100 per cent more
cane planted next year"

CONSUL JENKINS IS
ILL AFTER RESCUE
FROM MEX BANDITS

MEXICO CITY-The release of
William o. Jenkins. United States
consular agent at Puebla, who was
held captive by Mexican bandits In
the mountains south of that city and
who returned to Puebla, was effected
by one lone man, Senior Mestre, the
personal attorney of Mr.. Jenkins, ac-
cording to advices received here.
At the beginning of the negotia-
lions for the ransom of Mr.. Jenkins,
Federico Cordova, the leader of the
bandits, stipulated that any effort on
the part of the consular agents
friends to appear in force at the
bandit rendezvous would result in
the death of Mr.. Jenkins. Senior
Mestre, therefore, met Cordova at
Hacienda Chavarra, which is situated
about two hours run by automobile
south of Puebla. He was then con-
Quoted to a room, where he found
Mr.. jenkins lying on a bed. After a
short parley the ransom money,
100000, Mexican, was counted out
and receipt was signed by Cordova.
Mr.. jenkins then was released and,
with Senior Mestre, left the house,
being accompanied for some distance
by Cordovas men, who acted as a
guard. The two men finally reached
another hacienda and were conveyed
to Puebla by automobile.
Few details of incidents which oc-
Cured during Mr.. Jenkins week of
captivity have been learned, as he
is not physically able to tell much
of his experiences except that his
abductors were on the move con-
stantly to guard against attacks.
They treated their prisoner with
every consideration possible, how
ever, 1t is said.
Forced to sleep on the wet ground
during a week of daily rains, Mr..
Jenkins suffered a recurrence of
| rheumatic attacks, which rendered
him almost helpless. He now is in
the American hospital at Puebla,
only few investigating officials be-
| ing admitted to his room.
Secretary Elting Hanna, of the
American embassy here, who directed
negotiations for the release of Mr..
Jenkins, on the part Of the United
States, will not return from Puebla
until Wednesday,. Upon his arrival
it is expected an official report will
be made.

Special Cotton Report
Will Not Estimate
Production in Bales
by THEODORE TILEER

WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.-Although
congress recently passed an act call
ing for a special cotton report as of
october 81, month later than usual,
the department of agriculture ad-
Vlses Senator Harris that the report
cannot be entirely completed because
of miX-up over comparative figures
and the method of taking the CEN
sus. Since this is the first report
made so late in the season, the de-
partment says, there is no basis on
which to calculate a report of cotton
in bales.
Senator Harris laid before the bu-
reau of crop estimates complaints
that the report will not contain full
INFORMATION as to bales of cotton. At
the request of the Georgia senator,
the bureau of crop estimates today
sent the following te' gram of ex-
planat! to the Augusta cotton eX-
change:
AT request of Senator Harris ad-
v e condition of cotton is reported
regularly each month from Ma %

from eX 'rience of past years by
comparing. average of the condition

have reports for series of years as
of a particular date before an inter-
probation in 20 DIS can be made
from condition estimate of such
date. In past no reports have been
made as to condition of the cotton
crop as of October %. Therefore,
there is no basis for determining re-
lation of condition on that date to
final estimate of yield per acre. At

.PLAIlS AID JOHNSON
SUBSTITUTE BEATEN

WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.-The
Moses amendment to the j peace
treaty, last of those proposed by the
foreign relations committee, was
rejected today by the senate. Like
the Johnson amendment defeated
last week, it dealt with voting pow
err in the League of Nations.
In preparation for a vote on the
Moses amendment, the senate voted
down 81 to 40 a substitute proposed
by Senator Shields, Democrat, Ten
nessee. under which the British
dominions would vote collectively
and have one vote in the league.
The vote on the Moses amendment
was Sc to At.
Of those supporting the Moses
amendment, three were Democrats
Gore, of Oklahoma; Shields, Tennes-
see; and Walsh, Massachusetts. Nine
Republicans-Colt, Edge, New Jer-
sey; Hale, Kellogg, Keyes, {enroot.
McNary, Nelson and Sterling, voted
with the Democrats in opposition.
By vote Of 81 ito. q the senate
laid on the table an amendment by
Senator Sherman, Republican, I'LL
nois, that a refernce to the deity be
written in the preamble of the peace
treaty.
The Johnson substitute amend
ment proposing equalization of tine
voting power of the United States
and Great Britain in the league {
nations was rejected 35 to 43.
A subject not touched by the COM
mittee was injected into the fight
today by Senator Gore, Democrat,
Oklahoma, who presented an amend
ment to. Article IL, proposing that
under the league, no nation would
go to war until an advisory vote
of the people shall have been taken"
as an additional condition after ar
bitration had failed. ..

provision for an internatioal labor
organization. Efforts to alter it are
to be made by several senators.
Senator LaFollettr, republican,
Wisconsin, assailed the labor pro-

to American labor interests. instead
