Previous to this occasion adherents of
the old regime had circulated petit
tons to place Brigham in the race for
a twelfth term. The union men argue
that for many years Oakland has
been ruled by bunch of "old timers"
who have had everything their own
way, and that it is high time the ad-
ministration was changed and young
men with modern ideas be substi-
tuted." Many reforms are demanded
by the new party and great enthusi-
asm is manifested
At the caucus last night three of
the necessary five councilmen were
nominated and it was agreed to en-
dorse the candidacy of Ben Fox and
Dan Rathburn of the opposition.
These men are now members of the
council and are known to favor the
union cause, it is said. but had agreed
to run on the Brigham ticket before
the union ticket appeared in the field.
A resolution was adopted to the eff
feet that the union would oppose any
attempt to annex Oakland to the city
of Topeka and it was pointed out that
a two-thirds vote of the legal voters
would be required to make this
change. About sixty men were
present

Those who read Venus in the
East" by Wallace Irwin, in the Satur-
day Evening Post, are going to be
sorely disappointed in the screen YER
sion, with Bryant Washburn as the
star. 1t was a pippin of a story, one
that made you wait expectantly for
the next installment, but on the screen,
nothing has been developed except
very commonplace matter of fact pic
ture. With Bryant Washburn as the
star, there is also Marcy Wilson in
the lead, with Anna Nilsson in an i'm
portant role. There are three locales
employed in setting the scenes of the
story The west, train en- route east
and finally New York Washburn in
the story made accepta BILE hero
and Anna Nilsson was ideal as the So
ciety vulture in whose veins ice water
flowed. But it can hardly be said that
Miss Wilson measured up to the role
of the heroine, either in looks or act
ing ability. In Transforming the story
to the screen practically all of its com
edy value has been lost and it was
really with touch of spice that made
it worth while reading. Several of the
scenes that played an important part
in the story were dropped entirely
from the film. and altogether it is
very wishy-wa shy.

TROUBLE IS NEAR
Great Britain Faces Labor
Strife-Crisis Due Soon.
"Triple Alliance" To Be Made
Tonight the Climax.

London, March 21.-Great Britain is
facing the greatest labor crisis in its
history. 1t will eliminate tonight
when the triple alliance'-mlners,
railway men and transport workers
meet to decide whether general
strike shall be called tomorrow.
Whine the government has offered
some concessions to both the railway
men and miners, labor leaders declare
it must yield to every demand of the
triple alliance to avert an industrial
catastrophe.
Both sides refuse to make an Off
cial statement, but leader of the rail-
way men made the following declara-
ton to the United Press:
I'VE prepared for the worst. If we
strike we will win. If we win the
government will fall. and will be re-
placed by a labor ministry. The gov
eminent realizes the seriousness of
general strike 1t will mean that
| thousands of people in the great in
dustrial district will face starvation
as the government would be unable to
| run enough trains to insure distribu-
ton of sufficient food"
Lloyd George With Them.
Many laborites believe Premier
| Lloyd George is fully aware of the
| danger of the situation and personally
is inclined to sympathize with the
workers, but they doubt that he has
| the support of the whole government.
Meanwhile, committees of miners,
| railway men and transport workers to-
| day were preparing reports to be sub
| mitted to the joint conference of their
| leaders called for p. m. An eleventh
| hour proposal made by the govern
| ment to the railway men last night
| includes 4S-hour week and overtime
| pay at the rate of time and a quarter
| for Sunday, time and half for night
work and. a 36-cent bonus for night.
| The present wage basis would con-
| tinue for the balance of the year. The
| government pointed out that even
| these concessions - which are far
| short of the workers demands
| would necessitate a general rate in
crease. Naturalization of the rail-
ways was not mentioned in the gov
| ernment's order.
1T is a new and modified order but
I am unable to predict what the YER
| dict of the railway mems delegates
| will be-" said J. H. Thomas, leader
| OF the railway employees. THE out
| look is still difficult"
The railway men held brief meet
| ing last night but adjourned until to-
day without taking action The status
| is uncertain if they should resolve to
| continue negotiations on the basis OF
| the governments latest proposition
owing to the fact they are bound to
cooperate with other members of the
| triple alliance" no matter what in
| dlVldual decision they might reach

PLAN MONASTERY
IN EAST KENTUCKY

E. A. Waters, of the Big Four
railroad Cincinnati paid Hon. J.
A. Sullivan visit here last week,
to consult with him concerning
the location of Catholic mon
astery in the mountains of east
ern Kentucky, to be founded by
Baltimore capitalists who have
spent many million dollars in the
improvement and development
of the Eastern Kentucky noun
tains. Mr.. Sullivan says that the
monastery should not be. simply
religious, but should be the head
and center of schools or colleges
in agriculture, carpentry, forestry
coal and oil mining and other
practical pursuits, as well as all
sciences and languages, ancient
and modern. He also says that
the monks should be able to talk
English we'll and prefers them to
come from the following nations
and in this order: Ireland, Scot
land, Wales, England, France,
Belgium, or Italy and many ma
tive born Americans should head
many of the departments. The
purpose of the monastery will be
not simply religion but educa-
ton in many practical pursuits
and in many sciences intended to
prepare all people of all religions

ELECTRICAL EXPERTS
TALK WHITE WAY

The campaign for a White Way
in Richmond to accompany and
complement the new paved
streets and sewerage system was
discussed here Tuesday night by
the Councilmanic committee and
representatives of the Kentucky
Utilities Company. Plans were
shown for the location of posts or
standards, and which the business
men and citizens must buy if the
White Way is installed. The city
proposes to furnish the extra cur
rent required, and the Kentucky
Utilities Company to do the work.
One of the three representa-
tives here was A. E. Suker, street
lighting specialist of the General
Electric Company. Mr.. Suker is
the man who installed electric
lights on the Statue of Liberty a
few years ago. Others were L.
w. McLellen, of the Kentucky
Utilities Company, and E. R. Ad-
dams, electrical engineer of the
General Electric Company. 1t is
estimated that the cost of the
iron standards will be about ST.
500.

TREATY IS F|ANALLY
REPORTED TO SENATE
(By Associated Press)

Washington, Sept. 10-Char-
acterizing it as an alliance and
not a league, which will breed
wars, instead of peace, the peace
treaty including the covenant OF
the League of Nations was form
ally reported'to the Senate today
by the Senate Foreign Relations
committee with 45 amendments
and four reservations. Accom-
panying the treaty was a MAORI
ty report of the Foreign Rela-
tions committee subscribed to by
every Republican member ex-
cept Senator McCumber, explain
ing. the amendments and reserva-
tions all of which, it is declared,
are governed by a single purpose
to safeguard American SOW
ereignty and rights, "the invasion
of which would stimulate
breaches of faith, encourage
conflict and general wars.
The reservations propose an un-
conditional right to withdraw
from the League, declination to
assume any obligations in Article
10 except by action of Congress,
reserving to the United States
the exclusive right to decide
what questions are within its
own domestic juridiction, abso-
lutte reservation of the Monroe
Doctrine to judgment of the
United States.
One of the principal amend
ments provides equal voting
power for the United States with
Great Britain in the assembly of
the League, giving Shantung to
China, instead of to Japan and
no representation by the United
States on commissions deciding
matters in which it has no con-

PECULIAR BURGLARY
TRAILED IN BEREA

Bloodhounds from Lexington en-
deavored to trail man that Mrs.
Hal Parsons, of Berea, said came in
to her bedroom at her home about
half past four o'clock Monday morn
ing and demanded her money. The
dogs were unable to obtain salts
factory results, however, doing most
of their trailing around the house, to
the depot and back. Mrs. Parsons,
whose husband was away from home
during the night, said that she was
awakened by man in her room the
early hour. She said that he had a
handkerchief over his face and she
was unable to recognize him. He
told her to give him her money but
she said she only had $3.50, whereupon
he left. She then ran across the
street to the neighbors and spread an
alarm. Friends made up the sum of
$65 by subscription to pay for the
bloodhounds, and Capt. v. G.
Mullikin took them over from Lex
ington. Mr.. and Mrs. Parsons live on
Depot street in Berea. People from
Berea here today, said that there is
something peculiar about the whole
affair.
