BRAZIL'S GROWING SELF
 SUFFICIENCY.

Brazil, which in past years imported large variety of manufactures from the United States, has been forced by war con ditions to develop industries of her own until she is now rapidly growing seIf-suffi- cient, the National Bank of Commerce in New York says in the November issue of its magazine, Commerce Monthly. The art icle says in part:
 "More than one-third of the total inn ports into Brazil during 1918 came from the United States. What share of this consisted of manufactures is not yet known, but in 1917 more than half of the total i'm ports from this country was made up of manufactured goods While the war has increased our productive capacity until we feel the necessity of finding a market for our surplus manufactured product, it has eXerted an equally stimulating effect upon Brazilian industry. The development which has taken place in that country since 1914 would serve as a classical illustration of the steps by which industliaIIzation occurs in any country.
 As war cut off imports of textiles and clothing, Brazil set out to clothc her own people. Now the major portion of Brazil ian cotton is consumed at home. Between 1915 and 1917 eight mills for the manu- facture of knit goods were established in Sac Paulo, and more than seventy textiles mills of all classes are in operation in that state alone. One million, two hundred thousand hats were made in that district in 1916. The output of footwear in Brazil lis now 2OOOOOOO pairs a year. A large number of plants for making preserves, sweets and chocolates have begun opera tion. Corn milling and other manufactures of food products increased rapidly. In 1918, 13,27O tons, valued at about $8,OO0- GOO, left Brazil for foreign ports. The ex- portatiOn of refrigerated meats has ex- banded from $500 to G0,5O0 tons
 "The state of Sac Paulo is the main center of Brazilian manufacture During the years from 1915 to 1917, 323 manu- featuring concerns capitalized at a total of $35OOOO0 or an average of over $lO,000 each, were established in that province
 'Progress tOWar dindustIaIizatiOn as a result of the war, so marked in Brazil, has been made in almost every one of those less developed countries of the world which in the past have been looked upon as sure markets for the eXportable surplus of staple manufactures from the chief manu- featuring countries. So far as they at tempt to compete with articles of local manufacture, Americans must either meet the local price, offer better article or develop specialities, the market for which lis easier to hold than is the market for staples"

INFANT DIES

Charles Pangburn Douglas was
born Saturday, Aug. 9th, and on
Thursday his brief life ended. The
fond parents had pictured the little
one passing from infancy to child
hood, to the grown young man, the
high class professional, and onward
and upward; hut alas, the death an
Gel came it's way and the spirit took
its fight to be with Him who said,
permit the little one to come unto
me for such is the Kingdom of Heav-
en-. Parents, allow this memory to
abide with you. The spirit of the
little one is not dead, just translat-
ed to place fitted for the perfect
and is little link in chain reach
ing from earth to heaven. Through
the crushing of earthly hopes heaven
is attained. Be still troubled souls,
abide with Him and all is well. The
child was a son Of Deputy County
Clerk L. r. Douglas and wife.

MT. STERLING. KENTUCKY TUESDAY AUGUST 49, 1919
srEP-DAuGHrER MURDERED

George Henry Rash, negro ten
ant on the farm Of David c. Fox,
three miles east Of this city shot
and instantly killed his step daugh-
ter, Lena Garrett an eighteen year
old girl Thursday afternoon. He
then turned the gun on his wife, and
finding it empty beat her with it I'M
til the gun was broken to pieces
Rash then tried to commit suicide
by cutting his throat. He ran to
Ewington Station and caught pass
ing automobile into town where he
gave himself up to officer Thomas
Scott, who placed him in the county
jail. Rash's wife is in a critical con-
dition and is lying at the point of
death from injuries inflicted by the
enraged negro. Rash himself is suf-
fering much pain from a severe cash
in his throat which he received when
he attempted to kill himself. How
ever his wounds are not serious.
The trouble it seems came up over
an argument over horse and bug
gy belonging to Rash and his wife,
which he objected to his step
children using. Coming in at noon
Thursday and finding that they had
driven into town he started an ar
\gument with his wife and it was re-
tiewed when he came in from work
later in the afternoon with the above
result. Rash waived his examining
trial before Judge Senff yesterday
and was held to await the action of
the grand jury.

KASH WINS

The Secretary of State has given
out the statement that E. c. Kash,
of Jackson, has, according to official
count; won the Republican nominal
ton for Railroad Commissioner =.
the Third District by a majority of
1886 votes. This was a very close
race and Mr. Kash is to be congrat-
ulated on his running qualities, for
most assuredly he had the leaders
of the party lined up against him.
Mr.. Clay Cisco, who was first to re-
sent the action of the would be
bosses, that big nominating commit
tee, declared they could not put a
Whit in his mouth and choke him
off, that the people had some rights
that were sacred to them and as for
one he would settle his claims ac-
cording to legal enactment, the Pri-
mary election law. This course
aroused the mighty who began to
disown any connection with the So
called nominating committee. They
declared that Cisco's published
statements were hurting the standing
of the party and cried for mercy,
take him off Take him off To this
Cisco did not give heed, determined
toilet the people by their votes name
their candidate. Mr. Cisco made a
partial canvass and from express
sions received was convinced the
spirit of the law could not prevail
with both he and Kash running, his
crops needed him, and for these rea-
sons he yielded the race to Mr.. Kash.
As before>said it was hard fought
battle with the politicians ON one
side and the great voting masses on
the other side. The people have won
a great fight and it will be many
days after the November election
when Governor Black has been elect
ed by many more than normal
Democratic majority that Mr.. Nor
row can be restored to consciousness
and realize who it was that struck
Chilly Patterson"
1t mattered not which of the two
candidates made the chasing race
the result would have been nominally
the same. 1t was the people that
spoke and demanded the observance
Of the law rather than yield to the
demands of those politicians that
would be denominated nominating
committee. Fare the-well, fare-the-
well Morrow and your company. |
There will be just one elected under
the Log Cabin and that will be Kash.

CHURCHES GETTING TOGETHER

Persons who have long been insist
ing that churches ought to get to-
gether, and do their work with less
friction and overlapping, will surely
be interested in new movement
among all Protestant churches to ac-
complish this much desired result.
"The Interchurch World Movement"
is the name of the new enterprise.
A district meeting was held at Win
chester last Friday, at the Brown
Proctoria Hotel The movement
proposes, among other things, to
work out some practical plan by
means of which rural communities
will not be "overchurched," so that
more than one denomination will not
crowd in, and undertake to do the
work that one could do. A careful
and systematic "survey" will Re
made of all communities, looking to
the betterment of religious, econo-
iiit anu SOcldl cOHultlOIlS. IL lS dlSO
considering a United canvass next
year when the time comes for rails
ing the budgets for Church Missions,
and even local running expenses,
somewhat similar to the recent
United War Work Drive. All Pro-
testant Churches have agreed to con-
slider the practicability of the plan.
Notable Churchmen, among them
Bishop Burton of the Episcopal
Church, are interested. This dis
trict will be composed of seven
Counties in Central Kentucky. At
the conference Friday there were
present ministers and ~laymen from
Richmond, Winchester, Mt. Sterling
and several other prominent towns
The representatives from Mt. Ster-
ling were Rev. M. V. P. Yeaman,
Rev. Clyde Darsie and Rev. B. w.
Trimble. The plan will be presented.
and explained in detail, to individ-
nal congregations in the near future.
Tho undertaking will doubtless go a
long way toward bringing our
churches closer together.
