Exotic Orders.

Earl Beatty's latest honor. the OrdeI of the Excellent Crop, conferred by the president of the republic of China, re- calls some of the quaint-sounding titles of the foreign decorations which have been presented to notable British people recently.
 Besides the Ord = of the Striped Tiger, which has just been granted to a num- Der of distinguished naval officers, there is the Order of Sacred Treasure, the Or der of the Lion and Sun, the national emblems of Persia; the Order of the Serbian White Eagle and that of the Golden Fleece from the King of the Hell lenes.
 But the honor which caused most spec ulation as to its meaning and most in- quiries as to its corI:t spelling was the Order of the Qutz, with which Prince AL bert was decorated by the Shah of Per sia last October.

 CANTON, O., Aug. 21.-Labor prob lems, the League of Nations and the Republican campaign were discussed by Governor Cox in an address here tonight and also at Orrville, Ohio.
 Settlement of industrial controver sies by force of public opinion in- stead of the bayonet, while order is maintained and neither side aided by the government, was urged by the governor here tonight. The labor is- sue was emphasized in this commun- ity, in which Governor Cox figured during the steel strike for refusing to send troops and also by removing a Democratic mayor.
 Large interests are contrib

 fund.-" he declared, "because they
 want to buy an administration
 under which soldiers and the
 bayonet will be used to settle
 differences" Regarding the League of Nations issue Governor Cox declared there cannot be an economical readiust- ment in America until things are tied together in other parts of the world" and reiterated arguments that Amer ica should enter the league to keep faith" with American soldiers and the allies. He denounced separate peace with Germany.
