We have markets right at our
doors which have to import many
thousands Of dollars worth of can
ned products which could be raised
in Knox County, put into cans and
glass jars and sold to this market
at all excellent profit The outfit
calls for comparatively little capital

a paying business for the owner but
also a source of ready money to on

HOTELS MUST USE PURE WATER

Resorts turnout Kentucky will
not be given permits to open up
next season or. in the case of those
which are open the year round, to
continue to operate unless the drink
ing water that they use is absolutely
safe, unless they have an adequate
system for the disposal of sewage,
and unless their kitchens and dining
rooms are screened against flies.
Notice to this effect will be form
;lly given all the resorts Of the
State by DR.. A. T. Mccormack,
State Health Ohcer, Louisville, and
later in the year Or. J. |. Written
berg, State Sanitary Inspector. will
visit the resorts to see that they
have made or are making plans to
comply with these requirmsnts.
This action WIS taken by the
State Board of r<ealth after DR.. Nc
Cormack had received a letter from
the City Health Officer at Cincinnati
informing him that every one Of
seven members of a famn! "nch
spent last summer at a Kentucky
health resort had had typhoid fever.
The water supply of the resort
was investigated and it was discov-
cred that it had two springs, one
above the hotel and one below it.,
the upper one perfectly safe, but the
lower one contaminated by q leak
from q sewer Inquiry brought to
light the fact that the seven people
who had been i'll with typhoid fever
all had used water from the lower
spring
DR.. McCormack's announcement

OUR OVERFLOWS,

BrOughton states that quarter of

overflow with the river below and
that with little work, the river

All the gentlemen expressed them
selves as ready to contribute hand

it so vitality affects the city.
We also believe those who are sub
jected to this overflow should get
together if, as stated, the task is
feasible, and put it thru. 1t would

WEST VIRGINIA WAR
Is RESUMED AGAIN
STRIKERS CLASH WITH ARMED
DEPUTIES IN LOGAN
COUNTY.

State Police Headquarters, Ethel
w. Va.-Five men fell in an encounter
between an armed band and state
troopers on Beach creek, Logan coun.
ty, near the Boone-Logan county line,
Capt. ]. r. Brockus. commanding state
police and deputy sheriffs. reported.
There was much shooting on each
side, he said. Whether all the men
who fell were killed, Captain Brockus
was unable to say. He added that af.
fallen picked up and carried away
by their companions, the state
troopers and deputies retired, because
some of their number were in civilian
clothes and it was difficult to distin.
guish them in the darkness from the
men comprising the armed band.
The clash was at close range, &C.
cording to Captain Brocuks' report,
the men firing at each other when
but eight to 10 feet apart. Before the
fight, Captain Brocuks said, IL pris.
oners had been taken by the pa
trolling party which set out from Lo.
gan, ostensibly toward Blair and
Sharples. Four Of the prisoners es-
capped during the engagement, 1t was
said, and one of the mis- believed I
have been killed.
Captain Brocuks was at the head C.
the advance guard of troopers and
deputies. It was this detachment,
comprising IL men, that engaged the
armed band The patrol, while pro-
ceeding toward Sharples, Captain
Brockus reported, ran across five
men afoot. All were armed with rifles,
and one had a shotgun.
He said he had talked with a man
who came from Sharples after the
battle had taken place and this man
said that "some miners were killed."
but was unable to tell whether all Ave
of the men had been fatally wounded.
Captain Brockus said that later re.
ports from Sharples indicated that
the state police had played in luck"
in stopping where they did.
I'VE learned from Sharples that
there were between 1,500 and 1000
armed miners waiting for us to walk
into a trap" Captain Brocuks said,
"and if we had advanced it seems as
sured very serious situation would
have developed.
All along the way. the state police
officer explained, "potshots' were be-
Ding taken at the officers from men hid
den in houses and in ambush.

GERMANY signs
SEPARATE PEACE
PACT RePUDIATEs CLAUSES OF
VERSAILLES COVENANT BUT
HOLDS ALL RIGHTS.

Washington. = The treaty of peace
with Germany negotiated by Presi-
dent Harding and Secretary of State
Hughes in lieu of the rejected treaty
OF Versailles has been signed in Ber-
lin and made public at the American
State Department. !
The treaty carries out the stipula-
tions Of the peace resolution adopted
by Congress and approved by the
president Of the United States July
2. 1921, and provides that this govern
ment shall have all the rights and ad-
vantages which were specified in that
resolution.
The treaty explicitly provides that
the United States shall be entirely
disassociated from the League of Ma
tions and shall not be bound by any
action that the league has taken or
may take in the future, and it binds
Germany to all the important repara-
tions and economic clauses, the dis
armament provisions and other essen
tial obligations insofar as they af-
feet the United States which were
specified in the Versailles treaty,
which was approved by the allied and
associated powers.
The treaty does not become effec-
tive until ratified by the Senate of
the United States and Germany can
not be resumed Inasmuch as the
Senate is in recess until September
q, President Harding cannot submit
the pact, but It will be sent to the
Senate Immediately when it recon
venes and ratification is confidently
expected without much delay. Men,
bers Of the Foreign Relations Commit
tee have had the provisions OF the
treaty read and explained to them by
the president and Secretary Hughes.
Representatives of all Republican fac
tions which developed during the dis
cussion of the Versailles treaty have
declared themselves satisfied with the
pact and even some of the Demo
cratic leaders have admitted that the
president and his secretary of state
have accomplished a great diplomatic
achievement. Opposition, therefore,
is expected to be little more than per-
functory from any source.
