WHEAT FARMERS
STRIKE WATCHED
Strike Called for Farmers to Hold
Wheat From the Market Until
Reached Three Dollars
Per Bushel.

Kansas City, Mo-, Oct. 2S.-Grain
operators, market officials and state
boards of agriculture throughout the
southwest were watching closely to-
day for the effect of reported
strike" of wheat raisers, who, it was
said, were refusing to ship their pro-
duct to terminal markets until ba-
sic price of So bushel for the wheat

The "strike" called recently by the

FOSTER McKISS!CK FISH.
(Journal and Carolina Spartan.)

(Journal and Carolina Spartan.)
One of the most truthful of the
piscatorial artists in these parts said
yesterday that Foster McKissick-for-
merly the first citizen of Greenwood
and now really the best man in Green
ville-actually caught fish, called
bass but having some of the points
of the catfsh-Amiurus melas-thatI
weighed seven pounds in the waters
of one of the lakes in the upper Ca
tawba Valley. The person making
the report was not present when the
fish was weighed; but he saw it and
it did not look to him as if it would
weigh so much as seven pounds or
that it resembled the bass that he
knew when he was catching trout
down in Alabama. The garden of
the lake spoke in the most eloquent
terms about what dead game sport
the gentleman from Greenville was,
how he could throw fly just where
some fish or other was waiting, right +;
over there where the bubbles come up
or by that old dead limb near those |!
lily pads, and every time he made a
cast he got fish or had just as much
fun as if he had. A special commit
tee will be appointed to ascertain and
report whether or not the black bass
or catfish or mountain trout as afore-
said was caught on Saturday or Sum
day. We have heard from Albert An
derson that this self-same fisherman
from the Paris Mountain District is
also a mighty hunter and that the !!
number of canvas-back ducks that
have fallen before his unerring aim
would fill a pond. Seeing is believing
and eating would make even so
doubling a Thomas as DR.. Hearon be-
lieve that it could be done.

Baltimore, Oct. 2S.-Asserting that
the league of nations issue was above
party and involved not only the hon
or but the future prosperity Of the
country, Franklin D. Roosevelt,
Democratic vice presidential nomi-
nee, predicted, in an address before
a large audience in the Richmond
market armory here tonight, that
Governor Cox would be elected be-
cause he favored going into the
league-the carrying out of the
great moral purposes for which we
entered the war.
He also criticised Senator Harding
for his alleged "reacionary record
as an legislator, praised the admins
tration of Governor Cox, which, he
said, was a "record of progressive
achievement" and took issue with
Governor Coolidge for his recent
statement that one of the principal
issues this year is whether our gov
ernment shall or shall not be gov
ernment of laws and not of men,

Senator Harding for his alleged "wig

SENATOR THOMAS
AGAINST TREATY
Colorado Senator Says Germany Can
Never Pay What Treaty Demands
Nation Violates Its
Obligation.

Denver, Colo, Oct. 2S.-The peace
treaty itself and not the League of
Nations is the greatest reason why
the United States should not ratify it,
Senator Thomas, of Colorado, de-
clared in a campaign addresse here
last night.
GAS long as I am in the United
States Senate, I will never vote to
ratify it," he declared in asking sup
port in his campaign as nation
alist' candidate for the Senate seat
he now holds as Democrat.
"The platforms of both major
parties are silent, practically on the
treaty and both are ready to ac-
cept it with some reservations" ne
said. sIt is not treaty at all. Every
treaty is contract and the pact OF
Versailles has failed in that regard.
The Senator charged that the
United States "is directly violating
it's promise to Germany, made be-
fore the armistice, in demanding in
IDENTITIES" which he declared were
indefinite and "such as Germany
never can pay"

COTTON CROP AIDED
BY WARM WEATHER
Lateness of Growth Has Made Sun.
shine Favorable in Northeast
ern Districts.

Washington, Oct. 28-In view of
the lateness of the cotton crop, the
continued warm weather in the more
northeastern districts of the belt
have been favorable and the plants
are now mostly matured, according to
the department of agriculture's
weekly national weather and crop
bulletin covering conditions.
Rainy weather delayed picking in
states west of the Mississippi and
damaged open cotton in many local
tiles, the bulletin said adding that
to the eastward weather was favor
able for picking which work made
generally good progress except fol-
some interruption by labor shortage
Cotton was nearly all gathered dur
ing the week in Mississippi, Alabama
and Georgia except in the northern
portions and harvest is approaching
completion in the coastal plains o1
South Carolina. The yield in the cen
trail portion of the latter state i:
proving better than was expected
The weather was unfavorable for the
development of the top crop in Tex
as and cotton deteriorated in Okla
homa because of excessive moisture
and deficient sunshine.
