Many Violate Dry Law. Arrests
Average One in Every Two
Thousand.

Washington, July Io.-Morc than
fifty thousand arrests were made in
the first six months of the constitu-
tional prohibition just closed, Pro-
hibition Commissioner Kramer's an
nual report soon to be issued, is ex-
pected to estimate. Data on which
Kramer is to base the report is be-
ing received fom enforcement agents
from all parts of the country.
A large percentage of arrests were
made by the local police cooperating
with Commissioner Kramer, but not
directly responsible to him. The
number of arrests can only be esti-
mated since reports are received only
from federal officers.
A total of fifty thousand arrests
would indicate that on an average of
one in every two thousand persons
in the United States was charged
with violation of prohibition laws.
This average, however, gives but
an inadequate idea, federal officials
said, of the actual number of viola.
tons of the law, since presumably a
large number of violators were not
detected.

LAW AND ORDER PLANK
DROPPED BY REPUBLICANS
Prohibitionists Are 'Thunderstruck
by Action of National
Committee.

Chicago, July I7.-Prohibtionists
We're surprised Saturday when they
learned the law and order plank
adopted by the Republican national
convention was left out of the plat
form as printed for distribution and
issued from Republican headquarters
here.
"Prohibitionists," said Chairman
Virgil G. Hinshaw of the prohibition
national committee, ARE thunder
struck by the failure of the Republi-
can platform issued by the RepubIl-
can national committee to embody
| the law enforcement plank adopted
along with other planks by unani-
nous vote at the Republican nation
| al convention.
Clinton N. Howard, representa-
tive OF the prohibition national COM
mittee, and William Jennings Bryan
sat in the Republican convention and
heard this plank read in advance of
its adoption which followed without
dissenting vote. 1t was published
as part of the platform in all the big
papers in the land.
Friday I went to the headquarters
Of the Republican national committee
in Chicago and Captain Victor Heintz
who is in charge, admitted the omis-
sion and said he was taking the mat
ter up with the authorities in New
York in order to ascertain the rea-
son for leaving it out"
Here is the plank which Mr.. Hin
Shaw saws N1S nn1iftad.
The equality of all citizens under
the law has always been the policy OF
the Republican party. Without obed.
fence to law and maintenance of or
der, our American institutions must
perish. Our laws must be impartial
" enforced and speedy justice should
be secured"
Win H. Hays, chairman of the Re-
publican national committee, is in
New York. The platform is said to
have been printed under his direc-
ton.

On Lynchings.

here itave-been several tynchiings
in the country the past few days, and
as might have been expected, the
country is being deluged with editor
ial cant against citizens taking the
law in their own hands. Why these
fault-finding editors can never give
space for denouncing the cause Of
most of the lynchings has never been
explained. 1t is very old theory
that cause produces effect. Most of
the lynchings are occasioned by ne
groes attacking white women and
girls. One might just as we'll con-
denim the changes of the moon as to
condemn the melting out of summary
vengeance when such revolving
crimes are committed. 1t is all well
enough, perhaps, to blate long and
loud about the majesty of the law.
but just so long as brutes attack wo-
men and girls, so long will there be
lynchings in this country. No one
was ever punished for taking part IN
lynching brute and no one ever will
be. This is the truth of the situation,
and there is no use in trying to
dodge it.-Democrat- Tribune.

SIGN TREATY OR GET OUT
Allies Make Threat in Reply &c
Turkeys Objections to Pact.

London. July IA threat to drive
the Turk from Europe. "once and fol-
ALL is contained in the allied reply to
the Turkish objections to the peace
treaty, made public here today. Such
action might follow Turkeys refusal
tc sign the treaty or her failure =,
give it effect, the reply says.
The time limit for Turkey to make
known her decision expires at mid
night July 27.
The allies have arranged to deliver
this reply, which takes the form of an
ultimatum to the Turkish peace dele
CATION. in Paris this afternoon. The
Turks are informed that they must
signify their willingness to sign the
peace treaty within ten days, failing
which "the allied powers will take
such action as they may consider
necessary in the circumstances"
The allies made some minor modi-
fications i'll the treaty after the Turks
had presented their protests, but it is
understood these notifications do
not materially affect the original
draft.
The allied reply is couched in the
bluntest language.

Kansas Miners Must Testify or Go to
Jail

Pittsburg, Kan, July Io.-President
Alexander NJ. Howat and other Of
ficials of the Kansas Mine Workers
Union must testify before the new
Kansas Industrial Relations court or
60 to jail, the supreme court ruled
here today in unfolding a decision OF
Judge Andrew Curran of the Craw-
for county court sentencing the Of
ficials to jail for refusing to appear
before the tribunal.
Howat, August Torchy, and
Thomas Harvey were subpoenaed
last April to give testimony in the
courts investigation of conditions in
the Kansas coal fields. They refus-
ed to testify Judge Curran held
their position to be contempt OF
court and sent them to jail. They
were released later on appeal bonds
pending the opinion of the supreme
court.
The supreme court upholds the In
dustrial court law as far as the points
involved in the contempt proceedings
are concerned.

GERMANS. SIGN 100000 TON
COAL PROTOCOL AFTER
. 4-HOUR DEBATE
Final Distribution of Reparations
Also Decided.

Spa, Belgium, July 16.-The Ger
man representatives signed the coal
protocol drawn up by the allied rep
resentatives at 8:45 o'clock tonight,
thereby settling one of the most DIFF
ficult questions which has come up in
the present discussions. Signatures
were affixed to the document after a
four-hour session at the Villa Frain-
euse, one hour of which was spent by
the Germans in cabinet consultation
in an adjoining room.
There was a conflict over introduce
ton in the protocol of the menace of
occupation of additional Germany af-
ter October IS next if German coal
deliveries were not up to the stipu-
lated quantity-6,ooo, 900 tons-by that
date. The allies decided to drop this
clause of the protocol below the sig
nature line
The Germans objected to the pre-
amble, which declared that the de-
cisions in the document had been TAX
EN- in common accord by the allied
and German delegations. The Ger
mans commended it was not by COM
mon accord, but by sole will of the
allies that any further occupation
would occur. At this juncture DR..
Fehrenbach. the German Chancellor.
called cabinet meeting. An hour
elapsed before Fehrenbach and For
eign Minister Simons appeared at the
conference room. After an explain
atory speech by DR.. Simons, all the
delegates signed the protocol.
Before the arrival of the German
delegates today the allied Premiers
completed their consideration of the
distribution of reparations due from
Germany. As finally adopted, the
reparations will be made on the fol-
lowing basis: France, Sc per cent;
Great Britain, 22 per cent; Italy, 10
per cent; Belgium, 8 per cent, and
Japan and Portugal each three
fourths of per cent. The remain
ing E Ia per cent will be divided be-
tween Serbia, Rumania and Poland.
Besides the 8 per cent Belgium Is
to receive, she will retain priority
right to 100000 marks, from which
will be paid sums loaned Belgium by
the allies.
The proposed changes in the pro-
tocol submitted by the Germans were
mostly technical and were rejected,
except an amendment to article I, by
which the allies accepted an addition
al provision that the deliveries of coal
should be averaged in order to take
into account floods in the Rhine re-
gion. Section 2 also. was amended to
allow a premium of S marks per ton
on all deliveries by land or sea.

Former Butler Pastor Helps to Re
vive Kansas City Church.

The untiring efforts of dozen
faithful members of the Olive street
Methodist Episcopal church, South.
we're repaid with success Sunday
when rededication services were con-
Quoted by Bishop w. F. Murray of
St. Louis. says the Kansas City Post.
The church had been closed for
more than a year and without a pas
tor for nearly two years because OF
debts and loss of members. TIL.
courage of the few faitf1fuf or1es who
refused to let the church die enabled
them to collect enough money though
bazars and entertainments to pay off
the debt
Bishop Murray said the church
was established 22 years ago, but cir
cumstances caused the Missouri con-
ference to deny the congregation a
pastor There w. c. Bewley has
been made pastor OF the church.
More than $500 was subscribed at
the Sunday services for the maintc-
nance OF the church.

Nevada "0l' Well a Failure.

Several from Butler went to Ne
vada one day last week to witness
the shooting" of an oil we'll. There
was a big crowd in attendance and
much excitement as it was predicted
the we'll would produce from 500 to
1000 barrels of oil.
When the we'll was shot, however,
it failed to produce the anticipated
oil, but instead an artesian flow of
salt water was secured. It is need
less to say that there was great dis
appointment among the Nevada peo-
pie, but they are still enthusiastic
over the prospects of securing oil in
that vicinity.

Russian Empress and Children
Burned Alive.

Paris, July I6-The Russian En-
press and her children were burned
alive. after the execution of Emperor
Nicholas at Ekaterinburg, it is al
legged in statements attributed to
Alexis Dolrovitz, formerly courier to
the Empress, published here today.
Dolrovitz said he made vain at
tempts to save his mistress and her
children.
The Empress and the children.
Dolrovitz declared, were taken to .
wood near Ekaterinburg. Brushwood
was gathered and a huge fire made,
into which the royal victims were
forced. Every time they sought to
get out of the flames, Delrovitz said,
they were driven back at the point of
the bayonet.
Tatiana, the Empress second
daughter, fled from the pyre three
times and eventually fell, pierced
through by bayonet.
The Empress and Alexis, heir to
the throne, clasped in close embrace,
walked almost automatically into the
flames and disappeared in a whirl Of
smoke, according to Doirovitz.

a large measure of credit for the
reviving of the Olive street church
should be given to its pastor Rev. w.
c. Bewley, formerly pastor of the old
NJ. E. church, South, of this city. He
has been in charge of the work of
the church for the past year and as
the Post says, he has been untiring in
his efforts to revive the church which
many years ago was one of the more
prominent of the city, but of late has
been in severe financial difficulties.
