The public announcement by Pres
ident-elect Harding that Charles E.
Hughes would head the incoming
administration Cabinet as Secreta-
ry of State, and the public statement
made by Judge Hughes that he had
agreed to accept the position has met
with most general approval by the
entire country. Hughes is a man of
sterling worth and integrity, a jurist
of undoubted ability, a man of af-
fairs, cautious, as one must be, to
conduct the affairs as chief premier
of a great Nation as is this. Hard
ing has announced that Judge Hughes
would be the spokesman upon Ques-
tions pertaining to the affairs con-
nected with the department of State
and he will no doubt reflect credit
upon the new government that is to
be. If the incoming president is to
be so fortunate in bringing into his
Cabinet the same qualified characters
as will head the Department of State
the success of his administration is
assured in advance.

positions. No, not even in a Republic
can Administration. Had these gentle
men been lukewarm Republicans, OF
perhaps at some time acting with the
Democrats, they would likely be In
better favor. Naturally the men who
led the fight through the campaign
are Objectionable to the whipped. We
presume though that these two ap-
pointments will meet with the hearty
q approval of our friend G. b. Likens,
judging from some of his recent ut
terances.

DON'T FORGET TO
STEM YOUR RAISINS'

Martins Ferry, o., FEB q. :
Something new to worry about has
ieen discovered for persons who make
their own intoxlcants.
Two men are taking treatment for
wood alcohol poisoning, due to the
manufacture of'raisin jack from raj
sins which had not been stemmed.
One of the men may die
Their malady baffled physicians for
time.
Altho the doctors diagnosed the
cases as wood alcohol poisoning, both
men claimed they had tasted no wood
alcohol.
1t was learned finally that the men
had been drinking raisin jack made
from mash in which the raisin stems
had remained. The presence of the
raisin stems, it is claimed, produced
wood alcohol.

The appointment of Judge Hughes

two classes in doubt as to the ultimate
outcome of the new Administrator
position with reference to the League

middle ground. He was for reserva-

WILSON SUBMITS
BELGIAN AID PLAN
Asks Congress To Accept German
Bonds In Payment of L.
=. Claims.

Washington, Feb. 22-President
Wilson cleared his desk today of
another matter growing out of the
Paris peace conference by sending to
Congress a copy of an agreement
which he and the British and French
premiers entered into June 16, 1919,
and under which the signatories
bound themselves to recommend ac-
ceptance of German bonds in full pay
ment of loans made to Belgium prior
to the armistice. The President pre-
sented with the agreement recon-
mendations that Congress enact legis-
lation which would enable the Am
erican Treasury to accept German
bonds to the amount of $171,7SO,-
600, the amount of this country's to-
tai loans to Belgium up to the armis-
tice, plus interest.
The agreement and recommends
tons were read in both houses of
Congress without comment from the
floor. Neither house took any action
in the matter.
The President, in transmitting the
agreement made no explanation as to
why it had not been submitted earlier.
except to say that the reparations
commission has not as yet finally
determined the details of the issuance
of the necessary bonds by the Ger
man government. He added that
the agreement was not embodied in
the treaty of Versailles "for various
reasons"
"A recommendation at this time
that suitable legislative action should
be TAKEN" Mr.. Wilson informed Con-
gress, may appear somewhat prema--
ture, but in view of the approaching
OF my administration /
have brought this matter to your at
tention hoping that suitable action
may be taken at the appropriate
time"

The reversal of the judgment of
the Franklin County Circuit Court
by the Kentucky Court of Appeals,
wherein the lower Court forbade the
collection of the tax of so cents per
gallon, levied upon each gallon of
whisky withdrawn from bond, as
provided by the Vance Act passed by
the Legislature of 1920, is, If per-
mitted to stand by Federal Courts
higher up, the most important hap
pening within the State in a long
time. Under the act, some $15,000,-
600 or more was supposed to accrue
to the State, all to be used in road
building. The lower Court granted
an injunction it seems, upon the idea
that to enforce the act would be dis
and amount to confisca-
tion of property But it has develop
ed that like all other special tax mea-
sures, in the operation, the distilleries
and warehouses have simply passed
the tax on to the ultimate consumer,
or at least it is in process of being
handed down to that individual.
Hence the producers and owners of
the stocks of liquor do not seem to
be hurt. The action has now been
put beyond the injunction stages and
of course must be tried upon its mer-
it's, but the outcome is not much in
doubt, in so far as the Kentucky
Courts are concerned.

Jim Petty says when he was a boy
everybody agreed that the 14th of
February was grounding day, but
under the newfangled way of doing
things they have tried to shift the
date to February 2, moving up a bit
as it were. Jim further says there
is absolutely no doubt as to the day
of all days, cause no grounding
could have seen his shadow on the
End, and that the 14th was a great
day for shadows for Ground Hog, and
he knew at the time we were in for
a lot of bad, winter weather. Taking
Jim's viewpoint and what is being
pulled off in the weather line, Jim
must be right. In fact he stands

or not. If he does, S. M. Carter Of
Lihue is to be his first lieutenant.
In case Captain Rice is unable to
serve in this capacity, Mr.. Carter
will captain the company. Who his
lieutenants will be under these cir.
cumstances are not yet known.
The organization of these two COM
panies was completed by Colonel w.

National Guard of Hawaii, and Lieut..
Col. e. J. Nowlen, national guard in
struetor. Colonel Potter announces
that $4,000 has been appropriated for
the equipping of these Kauai compan-

tuiiding at Kapaa for the storing Of
the guns, ammunition, etc. The ma
chine gun company will be given a
Browning machine gun and Colt
automatic pistols as part of their
equipment.
A number of White trucks are be-

company is to have one to be used

terials. The officers in charge in
tend to properly equip both compan-
les and to raise them to full peace
time strength. Ninety-three men are
needed for the rifle company and rs
men for the machine gun company.
"It is our idea, Colonel Potter
says, "to have fewer companies than
heretofore and to have them better
trained, organized and equipped.

old guard before the war; Under
the present system the men will all
