With wheat crop of over bill
lion bushels in prospect in the
United States this season-the
greatest crop the country has ever
produced-the need for efforts by
farmers and elevator companies TO
market and store the grain with the
: least possible loss and congestion OF
traffic is impressed by the Bureau
of Markets of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture.
Last year, with a crop Of ABOUT
900,000,000 bushels, the rushing of
the grain to market Immediately
after harvest caused a congestion
all the way from the terminal mar
kets to the farm. The wheat back
ed up" after the terminal elevators
were full and congested the rail
roads and all country elevators.
The result was that jembargoes were
placed on further shipments until
the terminals could be cleared.
Fortunately, the winter was all open
one or the loss due to lack of proper
storage would have been heavy.

The suffragists won an easy vic
tory in the House last week, when a
favorable vote Of 304 to SO, was had
on the submitting of the National
Suffrage Amendment to the States
for ratification The measure now
goes to the Senate, that great de-
Lucrative body, which does little
else but deliberate and talk Iegisla-
ton to death, and where it is alto
gether probable the Amendment
will meet the fate of nearly all re-
form measures-be killed The U.
S. Senate, as at present constituted,
does not take kindly to any popular
reform, but clings desperately to the
old order of things.

Do You Enjoy Life?

A man in good physical condition
is almost certain to enjoy life, while
the bilious and dyspeptic are de-
spondent, do not enjoy their meals
and feel miserable good share OF
the time. This i'll feeling is nearly
always unnecessary. A few doses
of Chamberlain's Tablets to tone up
the stomach. improve the digestion
and regulate the bowels is all that
is needed. Try it.

Cause of Headache.

By knowing the cause. d.sease
may often be avoided. This is par
ticularly true of headache. The
most common cause of headache is
a disordered stomach or con3tipa-
ton, which may be corrected by
taking few doses of Chamberlain
Tablets. Try it. Many others have
obtained permanent relief by taking
these Tablets. They are easy tc
take and mild and gentle in effect.

Willing To Run For Governor If
Wanted BY His Party.

State Comptroller Hugh A. Nc
Mullen, who is being urged by his
friends as candidate for the Demo
cratic nomination for Governor, has
given out the following statement:
I'm order that my friends, and the
Democratic party throughout the
State, might know exactly how / feel
in regard to the situation, desire to
say that I consider the interest OF
the State and the interest of the
Democratic party as being first.
II believe it is time for indi-
viduals to lay aside their personal
wishes for the benefit of the party,
convinced, as have always been,
that the best interests of the State
demand the success of the Demo
cratic party this fall.
'.If the Democratic party feels
that I am the candidate who can
best unit it and bring success, no
man would appreciate the honor
more than would, yet the success
of the party is much more important
than my personal desire.
Il hope we may avoid primary
contest, and, as l stated above, | dc
not believe that any individual
should try to put his claim forward
to the detriment of the party.
II am willing to serve eirner as
the nominee or as one who will give
his time and aid, should they desire
it, to any candidate whom the Demo
cratic party believes is their strong
est and best representative"

fnA BOD Law or 1918.
Extract FROM Annual Report 81

Extract From Annual Report Vi
state Game Warden lie Compile.
There is one very important Act
Of the Legislation, which was passed
at the General Assembly of 1918,
Chapter 468, known as the Dog
License Law on which 1 cannot re
frain from making some remarks.
The dogs of this State which are
allowed to run at large, during the
whole year, destroy more game than
all the hunters of our State, as they
destroy the eggs of birds and catch
young rabbits before they are of age
to take care of themselves. The
Dog License Act of 1918 was passed
primarily as a sheep protective
measure, and If enforced properly
would be great benefit to the pub
lie of this State. However, am
very sorry to state from reports re-
ceived throughout the Counties of
this State the County Commission
ers under whose supervision this law
was placed, have made very little
effort in the enforcement of same.
In some Counties understand prac-
tically no effort has been made to
compel persons to secure license for
their dogs, and furthermore the
officials of some of our Counties
have advised the public not to pay
the license on dogs owned by them.
/ find this Dog Law is popular with
the public throughout the State.
The only complaint have ever
heard against same, was that in the
case of dog being killed the owner
has no redress.
If the Dog License Law could be
so amended as to place it's enforce
ment under the supervision of the
Conservation Commission Of Mary
land, the revenue would double from
same the first twelve months. Each
County could we'll afford good paid
officer to look after the enforcement
of this law, and rid the State of
worthless ours on which no one
would pay the tax, and at the same
time saving vast amount Of game.
I hope to see the public get be-
hind good protective Dog Law at
the Session of the General Assembly
of 1920, and place same under the
supervision of the Conservation
Commission of Maryland, and feel
sure the public will receive valuable
service, and have best results which
can be obtained from this Act, while
at the same time giving first consid-
Grafton to the protection Of sheep
and the payment of all claims of
farmers for sheep killed by dogs.

The Convention creating a per-
manent organization for the pro-
motion of labor interest throughout
the world has been completed. The
document consists of forty-one arti-
Giles. This new worldwide labor
organization will consist of Gener-
al Conference of labor representa-
tives and an International Labor
Office. The conference is to be held
at least once each year and will in
clude Representatives of employers
as we'll as workers. 1t will meet at
the seat of the League of Nations
where the International Labor Office
will form part of the League or
ganization.
The Labor Office will act as 3
general clearing house for labor in
formation. A governing body of "a
members will control the Labor
Office. This body will consist of II
government representatives, mem
bers elected by delegates represent
ing employers, and delegates OF
working people.
The results of this great move
ment for the peaceful adjustment of
labor problems of all countries
seems likely to be one of the most
important results of the war.

The Information and Education
Service of the Department of Labor
estimates that the building defici-
ency in the North Central States as
result of the war is $1,51I ,200,-
900. For the North Atlantic State
the survey shows the deficiency to
be $1,000, 100000.
In all of the States covered by
the survey, building interests and
real estate boards report shortage
of residential property, including
apartment houses. There is a
marked shortage of school buildings
and most of the cities report need
of additional business structures.
Department officials think this
deficiency must be made up, as well
as that the current needs for 1919
must be met, and are encouraging a
building boom that is expected
within a few months to result in UNI
precedented building activity, which
will do much to stimulate activity in
many industrial lines.

Moralists scoWl to observe a legis-
lator arguing all morning for the

at noon for the prohibition amend

benefits of the drouth himself.
Likewise Legislators scowl. They
are told one morning that the Presi-
dent is working in Paris for a League
OF Nations that will end wars. The
next day the President cables an
earnest appeal for Congress to vote
a huge naval appropriation. A peace
conference to abolish war {.
and the leading nation at the con.

heart which pumps the blood so fast
that it congests in the smaller arteries

A glass of hot water with q tea
spoonful OF limestone phosphate in it,
drank before breakfast for awhile
will not only wash these poisons from
your system and cure you OF head
ache but will cleanse, purify and
freshen the entire alimentary canal.

Editorial Comment
Senator Hale on Voca, Autoeraey.
New York Sun)

tNew York Sun)
Senator Frederick Hale Of Maine
is entitled to the gratitude Of every
American who wants 10 save this be-
loved republic of ours from the rain
bow chasers. His courageous speech
in the Senate on Monday put the
vital question sGuarely and fairly.
There has been no clearer definition
of the great Issue between the indi-
viduaI and unsupported pretensions
and as yet unreveaied plans Of the
absentee President Of the United
States and the wishes and intentions
OF the people of the United States
whom the President assumes to rep
resent at Paris and other European
capitals as if he had gone abroad
with a distinct mandate and was now
speaking abroad with regularly dele
gated authority.
THAT the American people are
bound by any of these statments OF
ideals or policy" said Senator Hale.
is to me inconceirable." Again: Il
believe that his ideals are not the
ideals Of the vast majority of the
people Of the United States. The
American people never understood
the meaning and consequence OF the
ideals and policies of President Will
son. They were given ont at q time
when as Commander in Chief of the
armies of the country it was held
universally to be an objectionable sin
to criticise the President" And again:
The wonderful catchWords and
phrases of the President caught the
ear of the people bat did not catch
their understanding. That they We're
binding themselves; to an irrevocable
policy as 4 nation l venture to say
never occurred to any but the Presi-
dents closest advisors"
IT may be worth while to note an
illuminating coincidence which illus
trates the accuracy of Senator Hale's
perception and the truth of his re-
marks about the President.
On the very day when this speech
was delivered in the Senate at Wash
irgton, the absent President of the
United States was telling the French
Chamber Of Deputies that the ma
tons Of the world are about to con-
summate a brotherhood which will
IL unnecessary III tIlc IIlltTC 10
maintain those crushing ornaments
which make the peoples suffer almost
as much in peace as they have suf-
fered in war"
And on that same day the absent
President Of the United States was
reported as notifying the House Naval
Committee, by cable or wireless, that
q failure on its part to report and
press for enactment the Wilson DAN
iels scheme OF increased naval arma-
ment involving the expenditure of
seven hundred millions of dollars q
year in time of peace would be fatal
to his disarmament and brotherhood
negotiations at Paris.
