that as firms are put to considerable
expense in preparing bids and have
no redress In the event prices adj
vance after their figures are sub

not going to bid for the District of

MUST PAY OR GO TO JAIL

The Appellate Court at Frankfort
yesterday held that an Imprisonment
as a punishment for contempt of
Court for failure to pay into the
Court money distributed illegally is
not Imprisonment for debt and does
not violate the Federal constitution
which prohibits Imprisonment for
debts.
Belle French married Joseph Rudd,
of Pendleton County, who died soon
after leaving $1,701 in personal
property. This property was OBJ
tanned under an alleged written agree
ment with his father by Abner Rudd,
a son, who divided it among Joseph
Rudd's six children leaving his STEP
mother, the widow, with only the
household effects and a note to have
owed to her husband. The Court
directed Rudd to pay into Court
S1,182 rs, which he failed to do and
was ordered to be arrested and put in
Jail for contempt of Court. The
judgement of the Pendleton Circuit
Court was affirmed, holding that Rudd
must pay the money into court or go

THE SUGAR PRICE

The action of Attorney General
Palmer in notifying beet sugar conpa-
MES that they are expected TO sell
their product at ten cents pound,
seaboard basis, might be made the oc-
casion of several interesting legal
questions. That an individual sugar
producer could be convicted Of profi-
teering for selling his output at price
above ten cents pound, unless It
could be shown that he was thereby
making an excessive profit on his in
vestment, Is certainly open to ques-
ton. Some companies, ON account Of
short crop and high operating costs,
will make little or no profit on the
ten cent price.
The price stipulated by Department
of Justice is exactly the price previous
ly established by voluntary action Of
leading sugar companies.
The fact that sugar was put on sale
before factories had fairly started on
their sllcing campaigns, that shipment
was promised at the earliest possible
moment and that the basic price vol
UNFAIRLY established was two TO five
cents a pound less than might readily
have been obtained affords practical
evidence of desire of beet sugar com.
panies to place their product In hands
OF consumers at a thoroughly reason
able price.

THINK INDUSTRIALLY

Newspapers, public officials and In
dividuals should adopt the policy Of
thinking industrially. Newspapers
are the natural leaders in this work
Industries pay dividends TO the
whole community In the shape Of
wages and money for operation, even
when they are making no profits tc
pay dividends to stockholders.
II is by Industrial development that
pleasure and Ocnveniences are added TO
life.
The Indians had no Industries and
they had no conveniences.
Farming which Is said to be our
most essential industry Is absolutely
dependent on general industrial pros
perity in other lines. AS an example
striks in the stockyards Eh!ch serious
ly interfered with production. knocked
the bottom out of hog and cattle mar
ket for the simple reason that industry
could not handle the farmers pro-
duce.
Every individual and every industry
, in this natiCn is just as dependent on
general conditions affecting them all,
as the body Is dependent ON the sue
cessful functionirg of its smallest and
apparently most insignificant parts.
School yourselves to think indus.
trially.
A good national slogan to adopt
when considering radical proposals
would be "How WIN 1t Affect Indus
try?"
We all live from industry whether
we be doctor, lawyer, merchant OF
thief so why shouldn't we all think
industrially when measures are pro
posed or conditions arises which
threaten the safety and prosperity o.
any industry.

that IL was much colder than usual
but from the fact that the flowers.
which were unusually profuse and
