Stitution of the United States when

ratification Of the Nineteenth A.

Colby announced the proclama-
lion when he arrived at his office,
having signed it shortly before at
his home where the official certi-
fication that Tennessee had become
the thirty-SiXth State to ratifv the
amendment was taken at an early
hour.
1t now only remains to be seen
whether the election laws of the re-
spectivc States need to be changed
III any particular SO as to alliw wo-
men to vote in the November cleo
ton. Some hold that the new a.
mendment is sclf-eXccuting, over
riding all State statutes in conflict
with 1t and that women will have q
right to vote regardless of State
laws.

about 400 Federal troops have
been sent into Minga county and
are being distributed to points in
the mine district from Kermit to
Dclorme, following sporadic fight
ing in the Williamson field between
union miners and mine guards.
The soldiers patrolling the camps
were sent from Camp Sherman
under command of Col. Samuel
Burkhardt, Jr. The district was
quiet Monday and authorities fear
ed no new outbreaks.
A grave undcrcurrent of appre-
hcnsion has been felt by residents
of towns in the Mattewan and Will

ing trial of Mattewan miners and
Baldwin-Felts detectives for the
killing of Mayor Testcrman. seven
private mine guards and two others
on May 10Th, was generally regard
ed as a sign for new uprisings. The
arrival of Federal troops. however,
is believed by authorities to pre-
clude the possibility of further
violence. The troops will remain

Cabinet constituted record. AL
bert Gallatin, once Secretary of the
Treasury. had previously held the
record with service of nearly 13
years.
Mr.. Wilson'S service, however,
was more notable for the construc-
tive work which it included, rath-
er than for the remarkable long
time which he held the portfolio
with complete acceptability under
three Presidents of diverse tempera-
tncnts-McKinley, Roosevelt and
Taft.
Mr.. Wilson was an Iowa farmer
Born August IS, 1885, he was the
son Of Scotchman. who left Ayr

SUGAR BUBBLE HAS BURST.

sugar will continue to 20 down
moi up. There has been no act,,,,
shortage of this commodity at all
only an artificial situation, created
partly by transportation difIic,,Ities
ana partly by panic on the part of
large consumers, has existed. ,Rut
inc old law of supply and demand
IS now getting in its work and the
inflated bubble" has burst.
ms IS upon the authority of The
bureau of Crop Estimates of the
department of Agriculture. Officials
OF that bureau are convinced now
as they were months ago. that the
sugar famine" never really existed
ana that there never was any iusti.

20 ana 80 cents, which were being
charged until few DAYS ago.
