CHANGES MADE BY COUNCIL

Owing to the lack of sufficient help
and equipment to properly perform
the work the streets of our city have
not been kept in as clean and sani-
tary condition as our people wish
for, so at the last meeting of the city
council it was decided to make as an
experimental proposition, new plan
for taking care of his work.
The offices of City Warden, held
for some years by E. Y. Nelson, and
that of City Street Commissioner,
held by Thomas Holland, were not
filled and the city has entered into a
contract with Dan J. Hollearn to keep
the streets and cutters clean, ali
sewers opened and to generally per-
form the duties of Street Commits
sioner for the sum of $4,000 per
month. Bond will be executed by
him for the faithful performance of
his duties. He with his family will
occupy the residence part of the city
building and has the authority to use
city prisoners in doing said work. He
is also to keep at all times a compet-
ent man i'm charge of the fire wagon
and engine house, to respond to all
calls. The contract became effective
at once. All city prisoners will here
after he kept at the county Jail
and no city Jail will be main
tanned. 1t is the belief of the Mayor
and members of the city council that
these changes will save money for the
city, besides greatly improving the
service.
At the meeting of the council Fire
Chief John Cline made his report for
the year. For the entire year there
were but eight fires in the city and
the total cost, barring the salaries Of
the chief and the truck driver, was
$42 in paying firemen for their serv-
ices.

Agent, both of this city, divided hon
ors this week when they secured the
of Governor Morrow,
Fred A. Vaughan, Secretary Of State,
and James F. Ramey, Insurance
Commissioner of Kentucky. This is
indeed worthy compliment to these
hustling representatives, and the en-
dorsement of such high officials is
proof conclusive of the merit of Pa
cific Mutual policies. This is the
fou~th Insurance Commissioner to
take out policy through Mr.. Hoff-
man, and his ability coupled with tina
of Mr.. Coleman to stalk insurance
to all classes" has heen demonstrat-,
ed more than once. We congratulate
the company upon such representa-
tives in this section.

gagged in Y. M. G. A. work in France,
and who returned home some t.
days ago, has become associated with

Go ef Cali fornia in this oitv. There
is no necessity Of our predicting that
he will, of course, make a success in
rms work, as he has always in otner
businesses in which he has been en-
gagged. Mr.. Judy "passed up" sew
eral most attractive propositions in
order to engage in this work, but says
that while abroad he saw so many
cases benefited by life insurance; SC
many places where the insurance
would have benefited, but had been
neglected that, aside from the remun-
GRAFTON he feels it duty, from all he
has seen, to spread this spirit Of pro-
lection and thrift among his own peo-
pie. The best wishes Of this paper
go out to join and congratulations
to the company on their selection
such representative.

HUMILIATING ISOLATION

The treaty at Versailles has been
ratified by thirteen powers and there
by becomes an established fact. IL
also establishes peace between Ger
many and the allies. Western Eu-
rope is now at peace with diplomatic
relations about to be revived between
Germany and her late enemies. All
of the settlements of the treaty Of
Versailles are made conclusive in 30
far as these thirteen powers are con-
cerned. The League of Nations is es-
tablished with practically all Of the
membership as originally designed
except the United States.
The United States remains at war
with Germany and it remains outside
of the League of Nations. This is the
result Of the attitude of the Repub-
lican majority in the United States
Senate. For the moment, at least, We
stand aloof from our associates in
the war. We decline to participate
in the settlements; we decline to give
the weight of our influence and power
to the enforcement of any part of the
treaty. We have quit the game at its
most critical stage; but this does not
prevent the establishment Of the
League of Nations. 1t does not pre-
vent the Shantung settlement. 1t does
not prevent any of those things to
which Republican Senators have OBJ
jected, save the participation Of the
United States in world affairs. The
Senate has been powerless to do any
thing save to put this great country
in the position of Stacker, in the at
titude of repudiating its obligations,
in the attitude of deserving its asso-
ciates in the great war at the mo-
ment when its aid is most needed.
Another result is to deny TO This
country all that it has secnred under
the terms of the treaty, and even to
deny the establishment of peace
between the United States and Ger
many. We asossfili at war with Ger
many and Austria Hungary. We
can claim nothing granted to us under
the terms of the treaty. We are in a
humiliating attitude, not only with re-
spect to our associates in the war,
but with respect to our enemies. We
made possible the conditions under
which the terms to Germany were
! dictated, and yet due tolthe pusilani-
nous course of the United States
Senate, it is entirely within the range
of the possible-indeed quite prob
able-that whatever terms arc final
ly agreed upon between the United
States and Germany will be dictated
by the Germans. This, assuredly, is
the result to which the Lodge policy
inevitably tends. s.
