ALIENS OPPOSE REELECTION OF
 SENATOR w. L. JONES

Information reaches us, as yet un- supported by proof, that alien inter- ests, chiefly Canadian, have a cam palgn now under way for the defeat of Senator Wesley L. Jones, of the state Of Washington, for reelection He is chairman of the senate commerce committee and is responsible for most of the teeth in the recently enact ed Merchant Marine act. Senator Jones understands in precise detail, the thoroughly matured plans of Can adians to wrest from Americans the possission of the vast and lucrative ocean fishing business off the coasts or Washington and Alaska Provisions he had inserted in the Merchant Mar me act will make it difficult for Can ad1ans to accomplish their purpose. Senator Jones also knows how Cana dlans now circumvent the laws of the United States in respect to our dom- estIc transportation and in what way Canadians expect still further to en- large their large share of this carry ing.
 Prince Rupert has been established and is being built up by British Col umbla to facilitate Canadians in se- curing the long haul between the western and eastern seabord of the
 united States, and vice versa. on goods originating in and destined for delivery in the United States. Rail- road and steamboat lines, owned by canadians, are, to an amazing extent, incorporated in states of the United States and managed by dummy Amer lean directors who all the time work zealously to increase American trans portation business over these seeming ly American, but really Canadian transportation agencies. They act as 'feeders' in the United States for the securing and delivery of goods Sen ator Jones has sought to put a stop to this. He was thwarted in such efforts at the last session of congress, and is likely to renew his efforts at the next session.
 If he is defeated for reelection q serious menace to the consummation of Canadians plans inimicaI to the United States and it's people will have been removed
 We expect to have more to say on this extremely interesting matter in later issues, as we come into posses sion of fuller details of the campaign under way. If the people of the state of Washington are to be asked to say on November 2, next, whether they desl to send to the United States senate, senator who will consider Canadian ahead of American inter- ests, we know precisely what their verdict will be. The thing necessary, 1n fact, is to force the enemy into the open and~compel him to show his hand. Perhaps this can be done be- 1 fore election day in such a way that | no voter in Washington will be in doubt as to what is the basis of the opposition to Senator Jones' re-elec- Economist

f Gil TIN c EASES OFF
ALONG NORTHERN FRONT

Warsaw, July 29.-Fighting appears
to have eased up on the northern
front, on the center there are rear
guard actions, with withdrawing Poles
keeping in contact with their right
and left wings, In the south the
battle for possession OF Lemberg is
impending or already is under way,
while in the center the Poles in
their retreat have not yet reached
the ethnographic frontier Of Poland,
toward which the bolshevid seemingly
are aiming before an armistice is pro-
claimed
There is much uncertainty and sus-
pense in Warsaw, over the question
whether the reds plan 10 cross the
border fixed by the supreme council
in force and continue TO march i'm
the direction of Warsaw.
Military observers are inclined to be-
lieve the bolsheviki are striving with
all available forces to wrest Lemberg
from Polish hands before hostilities
cease, should there be an agreement
at the Baranovitch meeting which be
gins Friday night
From an intercepted wireless mes
sage and other sources, it is pretty
we'll understood in Polish military
circles that the bolshevikf intend 20
spar for time at Baranovitchi. Ac-
cording to some reports the reds have
set August as the earliest date
on which they are willing to cease
hostilities, 1t is apparent that they
are determined to capture Lemberg
as prize for the last days of bat.
tie
Refugees and others who have ar
rived at Lemberg say the boishevili
who have reached eastern Galacia al
ready have issued orders calling to
bolsheviki arms all males from 16
to so years Of age within the invaded
territory.
The Poles are determined to defend
G.emberg to the last, and if it falls
ii will only be after perhaps the great-jI
est battle Of the present conflict, al
MI of Lemberg is prepared 70

Cynthiana Defeated

Fridays game between the Mt.
Sterling High School and the Cynth-
lana High School was won by Mt.
Sterling by the score of 9 to 4. There
was considerable rivalry between the
two teams, each having been win
ming easily from other teams of the
association, and a large crowd was
present for the game. This makes
the seventh consecutive game won
by Mt. Sterling and while the boys
are all quite proud and boastful, they
vet have a strong contender for the
honors in the Carlisle team, which
they expect to play this week. The
local boys put up good exhibition of
ball and have a well balanced team.
The battery, composed of Davis and
Kirk, is one of the best we have seen
representing high school in many
wears. tttfttlt
