Peculiar Amusement.

Francis Bacon was so fond OF fine
clothes that he spent his odd time in
irving to devise new styles and fea-
lures of dress. During his life he
made some 1000 drawings of freakish
costumes. When he could not get any
body to wear ttem, he hired number
of men to don the grotesque attire
and to promenade the streets for his
pleasure.

Gen. Charles Gates Dawes, the Chi
cago banker, who is said 20 be the
leading probability for appointment as
head of commission to reorganize
the government service, was one of
the weeks visitors in Marion and
talked with the. president-elect espe-
cialy on the reduction of government
tai expenses and it's relation to taxa
ton. After the interview General
Dawes said:
Il found that Senator Harding al
ready knew more than did concern
ing this, and that the effort to reor-
.ganize the government upon an eco
nomical basis is one of the tasks to
which he proposes to devote himself
most theoretically. From conversa-
ton with him it is evident that he has
this great and needed reform constant
ly in his mind. Considering that here
tofore no continued and firm effort
has hc a made, this determination of
the President-elect to make this re-
form one of his first efforts, means
that it will be accomplished"

Although Trotzky was quoted re-
Gently to the effect that the soviet gov
eminent of Russia was planning no
further military operations and would
turn all its energy toward economic
reconstruction, late dispatches from
Tifiis indicate that the Russian Boil
shevists are planning a campaign to
wipe out the republic of Georgia.
There are heavy concentrations of
troops on the Georgian borders and In
nearby ports of the Black sea, and
Bolshevist army that has been operat-
ing along the Armenian frontier is
moving toward Georgia.
The soviet government of Armenia
has annulled all foreign loans, ''espe-

The senate committee that has been
investigating the price of coal last
week accidentally uncovered what
looks like a sensational scandal
George H. Cushing, general manager
of the American Wholesale Coal Deal
ers' association, was being questioned
as to those who took profits in the
handling of coal He mentioned the
miners, the operators, the railroads,
the wholesale dealers, the retailers,
and then added, land officials of the
United States government who got
into the coal business" Mr.. Cushing
tried to stop there, but the committee
was insistent and drew from him the
assertion that government officials,
taking advantage of advance informa-
ton on the fuel stringencies obtained
in their confidential positions, de-
clared themselves in on the coal-price
boosting and cleaned up millions.
He told the committee of one In
stance in which government officials
cleared a profit of $675,00O on the
sale of 10000 tons of coal. He stated
that he was offered share amounting
to over 100000 to participate in the
deal but declined. There were many
other such instances, he told the COM
mittee. He supplied the committee
with the name of the ringleader, who
is said to be dollar-a-year man. He
added that railroad officials and labor
leaders who had to do with the ham
ding of coal frequently managed to
get a ''rakeoff."
The disgust with which the public
reads this sort of thing is heightened
by the information that graft prosecu-
tions probably cannot be instituted
because the coal handled by the ring
was not sold to the government. The
senate committee planned to make
public, after full investigation, the
names of all officials who have engaged
in coal deals, and the contempt with
which they will be regarded by their
fellow citizens will be some punish
ment.
Later In the week correspondence
from the National Coal associations
files, seized by order of the commit
tee, was read. 1t included a letter
sent out by Col. D. e. Wrentz presi-
dent of the association, stating that
the association, cooperating with rail
road officials and the interstate COM

The most important action by the
house of representatives during the
week was the passage of the farmers
relief bill, which imposes high
emergency tariff on more than twenty
agricultural products, the decline IN
the price of which is attributed by
the farmers in part to competition
with importations. The measure was
passed by a vote of 1876 to Sc. party
lines being broken. What the senate
will do with it is probIematical. The
senate finance committee viii take it
up after the holidays, and it may be
killed by prolonged discussion. The
commodities to which the new duties
would be applied are wheat, -four
corn, beans, peanuts, potatoes, oLions,
rice, lemons, cottonseed and soya
bean oils, cattle, sheep, lambs. NUT
ton and lamb. and wool and its manu-
features.

ed chief justice of the Supreme court
as Chief Justice White probably will
retire within the year. Other selec-
lions held likely are George NJ.
Reynolds of Chicago for secretary OF
the treasury, Henry Wallace of Iowa
for secretary Of agriculture, former
Senator Weeks for secretary of the
navy, and Charles M. Schwab for Sec
rotary of commerce. 1t is believed,
also, that Herbert Hoover is certain
to be in the cabinet. The appointment
of Mr.. Reynolds to the treasury posi-
ton, it is said, would be very CRATE
full to the business and financial men
of the country, who have high opin-
ion of his ability and broad-minded-
ness.

pneumonia.
John w. Platt's family are slightly
improving, they having had the worst
siege of the flu. Another case Of pneu-

the circumstances.
The flu situation is abating here
somewhat. A few cases have gone
out too soon and had to go back to
bed. Eldon Reeves and Earl Smith
are the worst off at present. Bad
weather conditions are largely respon-
sible for relapses.
A few of the Enterprise people
came over and nursed some of the
worst cases of flu. Their help was
certainly appreciated and the whole
community is grateful to these good
people and those of the surrounding
communities for the efficient service
they rendered. Lewis f. Rowe, the
Junior High School principal had
