OPEN LETTER
To Mr.. Claris Adams,

Prosecuting Attorney:
You made statement to the
News to the effect that the at
tempted compromise of the 1udg-
ments for $4,000 in favor of the
State of Indiana, against Lorenx
Leppert, for $500, was agreed
on in a customary manner"

mise judgments upon bond for
FIXTURES or to satisfy them of
record. Under the Constitution
and statutes of the State the
Governor has the sole authority
to release a defendant from the

and your action in attempting to
release Acknowledgements was in
direct conflict with the Consti-
tuition OF Indiana, the statutes of
the State and the decisions Of
our Supreme Court, as l specifi-
cally pointed out in my speech of
last Monday, to which YOU,
statement was directed.
l now ask that You publicly
state what other such judgments
in favor of the State you have
compromised '.in this customary
manner?"
Also ask you to state if it Is
@not fact that the State board
of accounts refused to give its
written approval of the settle
ment and compromise of these
judgments?

Plan TO MERGE
MANY UNIONS
Garment Workers Are to Be
Brought Together in One
Organization.
WILL HAVE OWN FACTORIES,
Hope to Wage Successful! Fight
Against Profiteers Through That
Method-TheirL Location Planned
in Three Large Cities.

Definite steps toward the formation
of an alliance of all the garment
workers unions in America have been
taken by the International Ladies
Garment Workers union.
Benjamin Schlesinger, president of
the union, announced that a call had
been sent out for a conference to be
held in October for the purpose of or
ganizing a federation of the 100000
workers in the seven international
unions in the clothing and garment in
dustry.
1.-The logic of events and the legiti-
mate causes which have prompted the
formation of national departments in
the mining, building, printing and
other industries point with directness
to the need of forming a similar fed
Grafton in our industry" said Mr.
Schlesinger.
Profiteering in the women's garment
industry is to be fought with union
owned shops, factories and stores.
This became known when union Off
Gals announced that a committee is
at work laying the foundation for the
first group of union-owned factories,
which are expected to be in operation
by next spring.
These factories are to be established
to demonstrate the fact that workers
can be paid f1rst-class wages, work less
hours and enjoy better working condi-
tons than they are now getting and
reap a reasonable profit" from their
product and still sell it considerably
under the regular market price.
The union proposes to sell its out
put to consumers through it's own
stores.
The first group of six factories will
be established in New York, together
with number Of union stores, union
officials said. Others will be located
in Chicago and Philadelphia.
1--WE expect to be turning out me-
dunn and high price garments for the
spring trade" A. Baroff, secretary of
the union, said. 1.-THE first factories
will probably employ about 1000 work
ers to be selected by the union" They
will be paid higher wages than are
paid by employers in the garment in
dustry, he added. The workers now
work an eight-hour day with a half,
holiday on Saturday.

Great Britain and France are con-
WINGED that the bolsheviki intend to

Provisional President de L Huerta

Last week beat all Paris marriage
records. 1t was week before annual
holidays begin and the crush to get
married was, as great as any crush
on seaside trains. The town hall, in
which ceremonies are performed by
the mayor, was every day too small
and overflow offices at which deputy
mayors presided had to be opened. In
the last six months the civil authors
ties have married 1872 couples, which
is nearly as many as in whole year
before the war. Most of the brides
dispensed with the usual bridal out
fit from motives of economy.
Two of Germany's most formidable
battleships, the Helmet and Westfal
len, and twelve destroyers, allotted to
Great Britain, surrendered at Rosyth
Friday, where they arrived from
Kiel.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

JUDGING from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. KilmeE's Swamp-ROot is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest fOI
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one Of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, IN
an interview on the subject, made the a.
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re.
iected is because kidney trouble is 60
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. 1t is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish FIRST to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for q
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

Where No Foot Had Trod.
A thunderstorm was raging among
the crags, so I hurried back and
retreated across the glacier and de-
cided to climb the aiguille, on the left.
This in itself proved to be a consid-
cradle height, and before reaching its
summit had become more interested
in the great walls of the main peak.
Far too swiftly the shadow of Mo
ran advanced to Jackson lake, the sun
disappeared, and darkness reached
upward from the valley. Meanwhile
left the ridge and traversed the face
of the mountain until 1 came to
long chimney, Entering it, I found
my way upward in the failing light,
reaching and straddling from side to
side for possible hand and footholds.
and struggling to surmount the giant
boulders which were insecurely
wedged above me in the chimney.
At one point had to leave the
chimney for a short detOur on the
steep, smooth surface. Again I had
to throw my rucksack up ahead,
wedge my ak into a crack, and work
over a beetling crag. Contrary to
custom on a rock climb, I had brought
my ice-ax with me, using it in the alb
sence of a companion to lengthen my
reach at difficult points. The chin
ney was many hundred feet in length
and afforded athletic diversion which
would have been more enjoyable
earlier in the day, when I should have
climbed more rapidly.
After leaving the top of the chin
ney there was a delicate fifty feet or
more Of vertical cliff and slanting
rock where the slightest slip meant
an instant unhindered descent for
thousands of feet On setting foot on
the highest point of the mountain l
found a level surface, possibly $50
feet long and % feet wide, that was
strewn with a few loose rocks. On
this summit no foot had trod.

When the nation went dry by fed

thought they would be forced into
some other line of business because
of subsequent cessation of wine pro-
duction, but reports to the bureau of

manufactured grape products now ex-
ceeds the supply. The production of
unfermented grape juicesRnd of jams
