STAR WITNESSES
AGAINST LEAGUE

Washington, Oct. 10.-After Senator
King has attacked federal authorities
for failure to deport members of the
pestiferous, poisonous gangs seeking
TO destroy thi sgovernment by force,
of violence Senator McCumber. re-
publican, declared in the senate to-
day "if these people had been de-
ported the foreign relations commit
tee would have, been deprived of some
of its star witnesses against the league
of nations" The discussion was
caused by the adoption of the reso-
luton calling on the secretary of war
for a report on the case of Robert T.
Mino, a newspaper man arrested in
France on a charge of spreading Soviet
propaganda.

ANOTHER LABOR
CRISIS FACES
GREAT BRITAIN
Cabinet Confronted With De-
mand of Miners Which Lloyd
George Says the Government
Is Unable to Adopt.

London, Oct. 10.-From one labor
difficulty the government passes to
another. No sooner was the. railway
than the miners demand for the ma
tionalization of mines confronts the
cabinet.
Premier Lloyd George informed a
deputation yesterday the government
was unable to adopt the proposals
made by the coal commission headed
by Sir John Sankey, and the miners
are greatly dissatisfied. Frank Hodges
secretary of the miners federation,
said after the premier.s statement at
yesterdays conference that "the gov
ernment's attitude had created a very
grave situation and the utterances of
other labor men show they universal
ly share this view.
A feature of the addresses made
by members of thu deputation to Mr.
Lloyd George was, according to unof-
ficial reports, a complete absence of
buster or violent language. Their
settlements were intended to show by
reasoned arguments that nationalist
ton of the mines was entirely in the
interests of the community and also
that the miners We're supported in
their demand by the whole body q
trade unionists throughout the coun-
| try.
From quoted statements of promi-
nent labor leaders, it is apparent they
not only believe naturalization de-
sirable, but are convinced there viii
! be a constant unrest in the world un-
| til it is granted. 1t appears to be
their impression that if extreme ac-
tion is necessary to enforce the de-
mand it will not only be the miners
who will strike, but trade unionist.

TAX DISTRICT
PROGRAM MUST
BE EXPEDITED
Business Men and Parent-Teach-
ers Associations Endorse the
School Board Plan and Decide
on Quick Action.

Business men of Pensacola and the
Parent Teachers associations of the
city lined up solidIy back of the move
ment for better educational facilities,
at a meeting held last night at the
high school building. Hunter Brown
presided, and after a short explana-
tory talk by Judge E. d. Beggs, chair
man of the board of education, the
district campaign was outlined by
George P. Wentworth.
1t was pointed out that the time
limit is very short, as after the pc
titions are signed it will be necessary
to advertise for thirty days. and fol-
lowing this, the election will have to
be advertised in the same way, requir-
ing in ali sixty days. In accordance
with the laws of Florida, it will be
necessary to call the election before
January first, 1920, in order that il
may be legal.
An intensive campaign will ne put
on at once, with the Parent-Teachers
associations of the city working in con-
junction with the business men, in or
der that the work may be facilitated
and the election be called at the ear
| Iiest possible date.
w. H Watson spoke briefly on tht
legal aspects of the plans outlined, and
at the invitation of Professor Collier
principal of the high school, will ad.
dress the students of that school or
Monday afternoon, that they may b'
familiar with the question, and b
able to form themselves into an in
telIigent force to boost for a sub-ta,
/ district for Pensacola.

A petition is now being circula- ted to have wogon road built from Mccarthy to Long. Lake, ad- iacent 10 the Copper river and railroad. If this is fayorably reported upon it will not only help the present ranchers, who have invested all they have got in their farms, but will help others to take up homesteadS and 6o like- wise. But we must also bear in mind that our main trails into the NizIna and Chisaula placer diggtngR are still incomplee and we want the Improvements to continue along the Sourdough trail which 'fere started last season. With our new bridS oyer McCarthy creek and the ap- proach on the other side graded, g WSll finished trail will make those ranches and mining camps more B cesstble, and, considering that Me Carthy derives much of Its summer income from these regions, we shoul endeavor to make them more get at-able.-McCarthy News.
 It is hoped that soon the publishers of the Territory will or ganize. into strong association, Take the Third division as 8 hor- rihle example: It has seven papers, all of which are buying and selling Independently and depending upon individual efforts to secure foreign adYertistng. With a strong organ ization, stock and white paper could be purchased for all the papeIs at one time far cheaper, an agency could be maintained in Seattle to solicit and collect advertising, and many corrective measures instttu- ted.
