CANTRILL PREDICTS VICTORY

Declaring his belief in sweeping
victory in the nation for Governor
lanes M. Cox and the entire Demo-
cratic ticket, Congressman j. Camp
bell CantriIl returned to Kentucky,
Tuesday, to wage his fight for re-
election in the Seventh district, al
ter having been absent for more
than a month working in the inter-
est of Governor CoX's candidacy for
the Presidency.
Mr.. Cantrill ANNOUNCED his deter
mination to make thorough can
yass of the district between this
time and the primary election Aug.
7. reminding his friends Of the OPP
position TO his nomination, which.
he said. seemingly has been over
looked in many sections.
The platform adopted at San Fran
cisco is one of the greatest ever ac-
credited to the Democratic party, in
Mr.. Cantrill's, opinion. Its one
that will appeal to all patriotic peo-
pie, regardless of their political affii-
iation AS candidate am stand
ing squarely on that platform and
fighting for it," he declared.

NEWSPRINT HAS ADVANCED 500
PER CENT SINCE 1915

\ A current report of the Govern
ment Forest service says that The
larger newspaper publishers of the
country have been able to keep
down the advance in cost of their
newsprint to about 200 per cent.
because of their ability to contract
in large volume. But the market
price, according to the bulletin, has
advanced 500 per cent. since 1915.
1t is at this price that the small
publisher is compelled to- buy. his
paper stock.
Primarily the reason for the ad-
vance in paper is due to wOod
shortage. In early days the paper
mills were built in the lumber re-
gions and their pulp wood was a
sort of by-product of the saw mill
ing industry. But in most of these
regions the saw mills have finished.
and they have packed up, burned
out, or moved away for some other
reason. But the paper mill cannot
play the part of carpet Dagger"
quite so easily, and as a result the
northeastern part of the United
States has become largely dependent
upon Canadian wood. Spruce from.
Minnesota and Canada, for example,
is being hauled fom 700 to 1900
miles to Wisconsin paper mills. In
New York State, where nearly fifty
per cent. of our newsprint paper is
produced, sixty per cent. of the pulp
and paper mills have absolutely no
timber supplies of their own. New
Hampshire and Maine appear to be
the only Eastern States that still
have raw materials for making pa
per. and there is well-grounded
suspicion in the paper trade that
the day of profiteering in spruce,
hemlock balsam and poplar is
pretty well under way.
The big papers, in any event,
ere certainly eating up the little
ones, and their funny sheets,
magazine sections and other ire
levant features add to the tragedy
of the proceedings.

Made for Monthly Banquets.
At the meeting OF the chamber of
commerce last week the constitution
Of the body was amended in several
ways in order to make it moro effective
and to secure larger membership.
The principal change in the consttu-
tion had to do with finances, it being
decided to raise the dues from $500
per year to $4,000 with the general un-
dcrstanding that substantial supper
or banquet IS to be served at each
meeting. 1t is proposed to have these
suppcrs served either at the hotel .,r
in q hall secured for the purpose
where some charitable organization
may serve it for the profit to accrue TO
them The plan Of having the supper
at each regular meeting has been tried
in other cities and is said to have
worked with considerable success, the
meetings always being we'll attended
and much interest being shown.
AT a meeting of a committee on mcm-
bcrship held during the latter part Of
the week, it was decided to put on a
membership campaign Friday morning,
May 2Sth, when it is hoped to secure
large membership for the body and
revive interest in its activities. Com
mittces will be announced next week
to make a thorough canvas OF the town.

KILLED BY TRAIN

Aged Ora Woman Meets Death When
Freight Train Runs Her Down From
Behind.
Mrs. Mary McDill, an aged woman Of
Ora, was run over and almost instant
ly killed near her home last Friday af-
ternoon whe na freight train on the
c. & wv. C. railroad came up behind her
and struck her before She was able to
get off the track.
Harriettc Irby, a colorcd woman, the
only eye witness who testified at the
inquest, said that she heard the train
blow three times and when she looked
toward the railroad she saw a woman
walking between the rails about ten
yards ahead Of the train. She was
about a hundred yards from the scene
OF the accident and when she arrived
where the body lay the train had stop
ped and the engineer and fireman were
standing by. The testimony at the in
quest was brief and threw little light
on the cause Of the accident, but the
engineer is reported as saying that
he brought his train TO a stop as soon
as he could after he sighted the woman
on the track.
The deceased was between 20 and 75
years Of age. She was buried at Ora
Friday. She is survived by one daugh-
ter, Miss, eliza McDill, who lived with
her.
