Governor Lowden, attacking the
League of Nations. He refers to the
impotent Hague Conference, apparent
ly because it precludes the possibility
of a "super-State.'
How a super-State can be created
by an agreement between equals he
does not explain. Nor does he con-

fusing to have any partners we may
lose our friends.-Inquirer.

A Disappointing Census.
From almost every part of the state
there come walls of amaZement, and
some of protest, against the new cen
sus figures. Almost every place in
the state is disappointed, and the two
leading cities, Newark and Jersey City,
are so certain their figures are wrong
that they are talking of a recount
Jersey City, for instance, is shown
to have gained only 30,0S5 in the last
ten years. and of this increase 1924 is
credited to the period from 1910 TO
he state census in 1915. This makes
the Increase for the last five years only
26.961.
1t is almost impossible to believe the
increase so small, for Jersey City has
had a great deal of building in that
time, besides which the housing prob
lem is very acute in that city.

BREWING IN MISSISSIPPI.
Southern Unions Resent Organiza-
ton of Negro Unions.

JACKSON, Miss, Feb. 13.-Trouble is
brewing in union labor organizations
When the Mississippi branch of the
bership from the American Fedora
ton of Labor it is said is in prospect
because of the activity of the latter
body in forming labor unions among
Negroes in this state.
When the Mississippi branch of the
Federation of Labor held its annual
convention here, a goodly number Of
delegates were aStonished to find 20
or more Negro delegates in attend
ahce, duly accredited from local un-
loIS OF carpenters, plasterers, brick
layers, etc, in the principal cities of
the state.
1t is said that these labor unions
were formed by national organizers
from other states, representing tue
American Federation of Labor. who
were working in Mississippi without
the knowledge or consent of the
state organization.
What took place in the secret or
executive sessions of the Federation
has not been made public, but from
reliable sources, it is learned that
some very salty speeches were made
Oh the subject, and some of the dele
gates threatened to withdraw their
union from affiliation with the
American Federation of Labor.
\ resolution was adopted and sent
to President Gompers, requesting
that iii the future southern labor
leaders be allowed to handle SOUTH
ern questions in their own way, and
that organizers who are not familiar
with problems in the south be kent
away from this section.

Several Persons Arrested on sus-

Law, Said to Have Been Last
TO Sec Her Alive.

Hoopeston, m.-Although they lived
within a few blocks of each other on
the outskirts Of this town, Mrs. Mary
BUTLER visited her mother, Mrs. Sa-
bina Cummings, only once a week-cn
Sunday, after church.
Mrs. Cummings was noted in the
section for her desire for solitude,
which ven her daughter could not
invade.
When the daughter called at noon
n day recently she found the front
door open. This had not occurred in
the eight years since her fathers
death. She saw also a light In the
sitting room.
She entered and found the body Of
her mother lying on a lounge. The
old woman was dead. The body was
covered with blood. The head had
been caved in by a heavy blow. The
room was in great disorder.
Thought to Have Hoard.
Mrs. Cummings, who was eighty
two, was reputed to be the miser Of
Hoopeston, and her little two-story
frame house, which she owned, was
known IS the golden house." Natives
frequently pointed It out to visitors
with the remark:
"The old lady has got thousands and
thousands Of dollars hidden there"
1t became a town tradition.
When the husband of the aged wom-
an died eight years ago a search Of
the house was made. In out-of-the-
way places more than $4,000 in cash
was found.
Subsequently the rumor spread that
this was but a 1.-THE of the wealth Of
Mrs. Cummings. Not even her daugh-
ter could tell how much money was
in the house.
The authorities had warneu Mrs.
Cummings to put her money in bank.
They told her the rather isolated situ-
