ed WITH"
| I asked President de Valera il
there was any likelihood of an ear
mistice' between Sim Fein ireland
and the British Government.
"Never!" he replied, his eyes
swapping" There can be no talk OF
settlement until the British army
of occupation is withdrawn"
"Then the present terrors in Ire
land, with the British army forc-
es on one side and the forces of
relation of the Irish Republic on
the other, will go on, you think ?"
"As long as England Is playing
for hate from Ireland she will get
hate" President de Valera said
measuring his words. 1.-THE Irish
people have time after time shown
their desire for amity. We aim
for mutual understanding and
good will between the two peoples,
lon the basis of equality ofc.right.
|but we shall never allow oudselves
to be treated as subject people,
|and we shall never permit ourselves
willingly to be exploited for the
benefit Of English inr1erialism. 2
when England uses force in ire
Hand, the reply will be force.
when a citizen or soldier of
the Irish nation has his rights out
ragged and his freedom taken from
him for no other reason than that
he loves his country, do you think
there will not be adequate repris-
ais?
"You must understand that the
Irishpeople are engaged in o strug
gle for their national fre eedom.
There is in effect a state Of war be-
tween Ireland and Britain"

SENATOR NEWBERRY
is FOUND GUILTY

Truman H. Newberry, of Michigan,
who seems to have bought his way
into the U. S. Senate, was last Satur-
day found guilty of participation
in election frauds, in the Federal
court at Grand Rapids, with sixteen
of his campaign aids, and besides be-
ing sentenced to two years in the
penitentiary, was fined ten thousand
dollars. Following the conviction of
Newberry it was given out that he
would not voluntarily relinquish his
seat in the Senate, but would actual
ly participate in the deliberations of
that body unless ousted, advised by
his Senate associates or by affirma-
ton of his conviction by the Federal
Supreme court. We herewith make
the prediction that he will not be
ousted from the Senate and that he
will never serve his sentence-in fact
he would never have been convicted
had it not been done by the evidnce
of his own witnesses.

FOURTH DEFEAT
FOR PEACE TREATY,

The United Sattes Senate, last
Friday, the fourth time and by the
vote Of 40 f6r ratifieation md -
against, failed to get the two-thirds
necessary to put it over-the lineup
being 2S Republicans and 81 Demo-
Gratis for and % Republicans and IL
Democrats against. The matter of
compromise on the treaty ratification
was wrestled with by the Senate for
four months and at the end, last Fri
day, it fell short seven votes. The
Senate voted to send the treaty back
to the President with the notification
that the body had finally refused to
advise and consent to its ratifica-
tion."
When the treaty was sent back to
President Wilson, it was not known
what move he would next make, but
the opinion prevailed at the capital
that the question would go over into
the Presidential campaign and be set
tied by the people in the November
election. In the vote last Friday, the
Republican leaders had the support
of the mild reservationists as well as
the irreconciliables of their party.
The Senate is evidently for the
treaty and the league of nations but
the fight has been on the matter of
reservations.

W. J. ROSS KILLED
BY HOMER PUCKETT

Jackson, Tenn, March 18th.-W. J.
Ross, 80 years old, was instantly kill
ed about o'clock this morning by a
fusillade of pistol shots fired by Ho-
mer Pickett at the latter's home,
near Spring Creek, in the 18th dis
trict. Pickett surrendered himself to
Deputy Sheriff Sid Birdsong soon af-
ter the shooting and came to Jackson
shortly after three o'clock this after
noon for preliminary trial before
Justice j. T. Rushing. He was COM
mitted 90 Jail without bond, pending
his trial Saturday.
Both of the men are farmers of the
Twelfth district, living within four
hundred yards ofeach other. Puckett
alleges that Ross had broken up his
home. Pickett said Ross attempted
to assault his wife and that he inter-
vened and was knocked to the floor
by Ross. Ross drew a knife, it is al
legged, and cut several gashes about
Puckett's throat. Pickett then Sc
cured his pistol from a table in the
room firing three or four shots, he
states, killing Ross.
The foregoing statement was made
by the Jackson correspondent Of the
Memphis Commercial Appeal.

SOMETHING NEW
UNDER THE SUN,

They say athere is nothing new un-
der the Sun"--but there is. We have
fodnd u u fdI! page xaveftIsensexl
in the Decatur County Herald. The
firm of J. T. Smith & Co., (incorpor-
ated) in the last week issue of the
Herald, had full page advertise
ment of general furnishings for men
and women, notions, household arti-
cles, etc., on which prices (and attrac-
tive prices) were given. The page
contained 80 cuts-and prices were
given with each article or line adver-
tised. Smith & Co., are entitled to
credit for the effort to keep Decatur
county money in Decatur county in
stead of letting it go, without protest
or effort to keep it, to neighboring
towns, to the cities and to the mail
order houses. The Progress editor
published the first paper in Decatur
county, and with the exception of the
late George W. Partin who was then
an agent for the Singer Sewing ma
chine, no man could have been made
drunk enough to pay $1,000 for
page advertisement in a newspaper.
Even when we came to Lexington to
establish The Progress, the late G.
W. Florence, the leading merchant of
our town in 1884, would not promise
$4,000 year for advertising. Times
have so changed that now the mer-
chant who does not advertise is eth
er still in the dark of non-progres-
siveness or simply too close" to risk
money in that way.

NUMBER 50
TWO PRISONERS MAKE
ESCAPE FROM JAIL.

Lexington Jail had a delivery at an
early hour Tuesday morning, which
resulted in Chester Cox, white, and
Foster Williams, colored, decamping
from that house of detention.
The information that the escape
was effected at about 8 O'Clock in the
morning is given by Bunk Kizer, coli
ored, who is under detention for 80
days for carrying pistol. and who
refused to go with the other two.
Kizer also gives the information that
Cox had been working on removing
the window bars for a week, with
small steel saws which were handed
him through the window or were
carried in with him. Three bars were
removed from the lower part of the
window, making an Aperture
through which Williams must have
had difficulty in passing, as he is
man Of considerable size.
Cox, it will be remembered, had
been sentenced last week for fello-
nious assault on Bob Christopher.
Motion for a new trial was overruled
and his attorneys had asked and been
granted an appeal to the Supreme
court, which was about TO be per-
fected. Arthur Cox, brother Of Ches-
ter was at the Jail to see him Mon
day and plead with Chester not to
try to make his escape, but Bunk says
Chester persisted in saying that he
was going to get out. Chester had
more than $4,000 on his person when
he was carried to Jail, which was ta-
ken from him by sheriff and given
to Cox's people, but Mrs. Wright
says they gave 1t back to him,
Williams was under sentence Of
1lmonths and 20 days for forging
check on Mr. Joe Franklin. Had the

would have been safe, but being al
