DISPUTE IN DARK TOBACCO
SECTION BECOMES SERIOUS

Paducah, KY, Feb. 2.-Friction
between tobacco growers of the
Black Patch district and operators
of loose floors and chutes is becom-
ing more serious daily and the situa-
ton is acute.
At least 100000 pounds of tob-
acco has been pledged by farmers
to be kept in the barn until buyers
send bidders out for 1t. Meetings
are being held in practically every
McCracken County precinct and the
growers of Ballard and Hickman
Counties are almost solid against
the present sales system.
. A report is current here that
twenty or more farmers hid under
a bridge near Paducah and stopped
nearly a dozen wagons which were
en- route to Paducah loose floors
with tobacco, forcing the tobacco to
be taken back to the barns.

HEAR COLVER ON
PAPER SHORTAGE

Washington, Jan. 29.-Voluntary
reduction of news print consump-
ton by publishers is the primary
remedy of the paper shortage,
Chairman Colver, of the Federal
Trade Commission, said today be-
fore the House Ways and Means
Committee. Publishers of big pa
pers, despite agreepents among
themselves, have not practiced the
economy that is necessary, he add
ed.
1.-THE publishers must recognize
that they are consuming more than
is and can be produced" said Col
yer.
1.-The size of papers is hardly a
subject of legislation" he continu-
ed, urging smaller Sunday editions
and the elimination of extra edi-
tions.
Chairman Fordney remarked that
Congress has no authority to fix
the size of papers,"
Repeal of the excess profits tax
and removal of all tariff ON news
print also were suggested by Mr..
Colver as remedies. He said the
shortage trouble began with the ex-
cess profits tax. encouraging unusu-
ally large expenditures for adver-
Using as a means of evading the
tax.
Smaller publishers are most
hurt" declared Mr.. Colver, "be
cause the larger publishers are keep
ing paper from them by taking pa
per ON contract"
The contract price, he declared,
averaged Az cents. and the cur
rent market price is about cents.
The cost of producing paper on
April /. 1918. was AS cents a

No increase in production, through
new mills, to equal the increased
consumption was in sight, he con-
tinued.

LALLEY LIGHT and POWER
For Farms and Rural Homes
Announcement

We have secured the exclusive fran
chise for selling the well-known Lalley
Electric Light and Power Plant in this
territory. 2
For SOME time we have noticed that
the progressive farmers of this section
are realizing that economical and re,
liable electricity is just as important
if not more so--to the proper develop
ment of their farming business and to
the comfort of their homes, as the tele-
phone. the daily mail, the automobile.
and the most valuable labor-savipe
farm machinery.
1t is our intention to give the residents
of this community the very best ma
terial and the best OF service for its
maintenance.
When we decided to sell an electric
light and power plant. we set out to
secure that plant which. in our opinion.
had proven itself to be the most reli-
able. the most economical, and in every
way the best investment for ourpatrons.

] REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES
FOR PRESIDENTIAL HON0Rs
Democrats Await Treaty Action
And President Wilson'S
Stand

washington, Feb. There are
scven formally announced cardi-
dates for the Republican nomina-
ton for the presidency, with seven
managers and seven organized Of
ficers here in Washington and New
York. In addition there are not
less than five more candidates whose
situation is such that they probably
will not conduct formal campaign,
but who nevertheless will have
some delegates.
Ur the Democratic side there is
no. yet any formally announced cal.
didacy except the relatively minor
one of James w. Gerard, and there
is nowhere any Office, headquarters,
manager or organization devoted to
the business Of getting delegates
for a Democratic nominee.
Let no Republican argue that this
difference is due to relative attrac-
tiveness of the two nominations.
There are plenty of Democratic
leaders who believe that they could
win il they were nominated, and
there are plenty of disinterested OBJ
servers who believe that certain
Democratic candidates could win I'M
der certain combinations of circum-
stances.
Await Wilson's Position
The Democratic candidates don't
announce themselves because of two
things that are in suspense. One is
the position of President Wilson and
the other is the state of the treaty. !
Mr.. McAdoo, for example, who il
President Wilson's son-in-law, and !
Mr.. Palmer, who is a member of |
President Wilson's Cabinet, cannot |
gracefully announce themselves as
Candidates for the presidency, or 9TH |
erwise be as aggressive as they |
might wish without first assuring |
themselves that such action would |
not be repugnant either to Presi-
dent Wilson's personal plans or to
his plans as party leader, or-what
weighs especially heavily just now
the Presidents plans with relation
to the Peace Treaty.
The treaty is, in fact, the other
thing that prevents capitalization of
on the Democratic side.
There must be suspense until it is
known whether or not there will
be a successful compromise in the
Senate and whether or not that
will be acceptable to
President Wilson.
Finally, and most important,
there must be suspense until it is
known what plans President Will
son will want to make about the
League of Nations after the Senate
has done whatever it is to do-in
short, whether or not the league is
to be an issue in the coming cam
paign.
On the last point signs accumu-
late that the league will be an issue,
and the bearing of that fact, if it
should so eventuate on the naming
of the Democratic candidate to lead
the fight, especially its bearing on
the Hoover possibility, is obvious.

Apropos Of this subject, We have re-

Society Of Independent Artists, an H.
Illuminating letter. He mentions re-
marh that he and his colleagues have
often heard about their exhibitions.
"People say they are bad shows. Per-
sonally don't agree at all, but should

the doors to whatever chose to wander
in. He might get some Of the things
he wanted, but he would be sure to get
some he didn't want. Now, a society
which takes as it's principle the watch
word Of mo juries' can evidently not
have any intention of giving a good
show or bad one" The purpose Of
tho Independents, then, is simply to

The Madonna in
Ten Old Paintings

It Is q delightful group Of early
paintings dedicated to the Madonna
that has been gathered together at the
Enrich gallery. Diverse schools are
represented. First comes a crowded
triptych by HERR Met de Bles, crowded
after the fashion of devotional art in
the north, the Three Kings bringing
their gifts to the Christ Child under
gorgeous Roman arches. Beyond the
stately architecture In the central
panel. and in the wing on the right
hand, the simple beauty Of the country
side is painted with true Flemish real
ism. There is another strong example
Of naturalistic painting in the show,
Zurburan's "Holy Family" which is one
Of the noblests works by the Sevillan
master ever brought to this country.
The composition, as is character
istic Of him, has q simple yet mon
umental dignity. The figures are
portrayed with touch of the grand
style. They loom against a beau
tiful landscape. Zurburan, the paint
er Of monkish portraits, is often
escetic to the point of gloominess. Oc-
casionally he had moments Of sweet
and human naturalness, of gracious and
altogether sympathetic sentiment. In
one Of them he painted this majestic
"Holy Family" There are several
Primitives of mild interest in the
group, and there are two or three love-
ly Italian paintings illustrating the
purest strain of Renaissance art. The
tondo Of the school Of Botticelli is one
of these very attractive things. The
"Madonna and Child" by Cavazzola,
perhaps the most sumptuous work on
the walls, is another. The collection
Is small, but we'll balanced. 1t is q
pleasant episode with which to inau-
gurate the new year at this gallery.

The Esthetic Fruit.
OF the World War

Early in the progress Of the war Wa
hazarded doubt a. to the trans
mogrifying effects which In some quar-
ters twas expected to work In tho de-
velopment Of art. It seems reasonable
now to state that that doubt has been
confirmed. A good deal Of foreign
painting has been shown over here and
we have kept careful watch Of the field
as 1t has been surveyed in the Euro
pean press and periodicals. Attaching
all the significance that can fairly be
assigned to the so-called "modernist"
movement, 1t is still impossible to say
that the war has thrown up new types
on the horizon. that it has terminated
any new ideas. The theory that in tho
crash OF civilization artists would be
made'over has been exploded. Civiliza-
top, the old civilization, has, after all.
survived, and with it we find the artists
carrying on" in much tho old way.
Cubism, futurism and all the other
fantastic isms were, to tell tho truth,
invented and pretty we'll exploited be-
fore the war. Here and there they
have been applied by artists at the
front, notably by the young English
man, C. r. W. Nevinson. But these few
innovators cannot be said TO have left
a permanent, important mark on the
subject, and the bulk Of the war pic
lures have been faithful to the modes
which the modernist, we suppose, would
call old-fashioned. He might comfort
himself. to be sure, with the Just re-
Election that the bulk Of the war pic
lures have not been very good. That.
however, Is an indictment Of the paint
ers concerned, not Of their technical,
pictorial habit. And the mon Of the
old-fashioned modes might retort, In
turn, that they had at least kept their
heads, that they had performed . valu-
able service in preserving certain
sanity where there were Tendencies
abroad calculated to land modern paint
ing In chaos and old night.
Change, for the sake Of change, 70 .
VIGOROUSLY dangerous business. In art
1t too often means that ignorance and
incompetence are masquerading In the
name Of progress. Some Of these days.
when the prophets Of new and strange
artistic nostrums have had their ding
and been duly si'ted and pigeonholed,
