Those newspapers which danger ahead in the action of President Harding calling Vice President Coolidge into the Cabinet meetings the ground that the Vice-President belongs the legislative branch of the Government rather than the executive are hard pressed to find something to complain of l. is true that the Vice President is the presiding office of the Senate. However. the chief for a ice President is to provide for immediate succession to the Presidency in the of the death or disability of the President The Senate can, often has, go along finely with one of the Senators for presidins officer The very purpose of Vice President there fore, is to have at hand man. chosen by the peoplo the President chosen take the oath 0 office and the duties the Chief Magistrate of the Nation should it be necessary

Debs--and the Others.
(NeW York Post ]


 The dramatic visit of Eugene V. Debs to Wash ington yesterday in response to summons from At torney General Daugherty is explainable only upon the ground that President Harding's Administration proposes 10 put the behind it fast possible IT Debs IS not pardoned it will not be for want of full consideration of his This renders doubly falldcous Mr Daughertys distinction between Debs and the others who in prison for the offense "The Debs case says the Attorney General alone, and cannot betaken indicative of any flu ture Administration policy with regard to political prisoners. In what way does it stand alone? Be cause of Debss prominence? Is the pardoning power then, 10 become respecter of persons? If any dis uhctloh Is o be drawn among political prisoners it might more reasonably favor the obscure, since their Imprisonment is not mtigated by the publicity ;hat keeps Debs as much object of discussion if he were campagning.
 No distinction among political prisoners justly be drawn If Debs is pardoned all the others should be pardoned along with him. The real question before lh" Administration is not whether pardon shall be issued 10 Debs but whether there shall not be gen eTaI amnesty 10 political prisoners That question is deserving O. the most serious consideration. Our feeling Is that the time has fully for such ion. lt can do no harm and it will allay the aent that arises from continuing punishment after it has served its purpose.

NASHVILLE, Ga, Feb. 24-Judge
W. r. Smith. of the city court, agreed
to extend the noon recess Of court
long enough Monday for the farmers
of Berrien county to have a meeting.
The biggest crowd seen in years
packed the courthouse to it's capacity.
Every seat was taken and all the
aisles and inside the bar packed by
farmers who were standing.
j. H. Rowan, a prominent and in
fluential farmer of lower Tenth dis
trict, stated the object of the meet
ing and a large number of farmers
emphatically expressed their deter
mination not to pay the high prices
now being quoted on commercial fer
I'tilizer. Although some fertilizer
manufacturers may have purchased
raw materials before the decline, it
was the sense of this meeting that it
was just as fair Tor the fertilizer
as it was for the farmers to sell their
1920 crops far below cost.
1t was decided to be an unwise
policy to fix an arbitrary price on
| fertilizer, hence they passed the fol-
lowing resolution:
Whereas, the prices of the various
commodities which the farmers OF
Berrien county usually raise for the
market have declined to the pre-war
price levels, and,
Whereas, the 1920 crop was sold
or will have to be sold far below
the cost of production, and,
| Whereas, the fertilizer manufac-
fering for sale commercial fertilizer
at practically the same prices that
| prevailed during war time and high
prices of farm products, and,
Whereas, We farmers of Berrien
county believe that we cannot raise
crops this year and sell them at
prices which we will probably have
to take for same and obtain enough
money to pay for fertilizer at pres
ent prices,
"Be it hereby resolved, That this
Injecting of farmers from every dis
trict in Berrien county go on rec
ord in protest of the present prices
of commercial fertilizer as now
quoted by manufacturers and deal
| erS.
BE it further resolved, That we
delay the purchase of any commercial
fertilizer until price levels have been
reduced by the manufacturers"
Quite a number of farmers dis
cussed the probable increase or de-
crease in acreage of various crops
| 1t was the sense of the meeting tC
increase acreages of corn, velvet
beans, peanuts, etc, and use no com
mercial fertilizer with same.
In view of the above stated facts
the following resolution was passed
| BE it hereby resolved, That we
farmers of Berrien county do hereby
go on record as being in favor Of
cutting the cotton acreage in Berrier
county at least SO per cent thi:
year"
Those present pledged to use theil
influence in carrying out this resolu
ton.

ly outlined what the farm bureau
was doing in other sections. 1t il
planned to have farm bureau mem
bership drive in Berrien county a.

Of other breeders of pure-bred poul-
try in the county.

seen as many chickens at this time
of the year as are being offered on
the Triton market now. Nearly all
of the local grocery stores buy and
ship chickens, eggs, ducks, geese,
etc, one dealer shipping SIS pounds
Of chickens Monday, this represent
ing only two days buying. The poul-
try market has held up better than
any other farm products market, and
the farmers of Tiff county are reap
ing the benefit. Large shipments OF
eggs, chickens, turkeys and geese
are made from Tiff county every
week, the stores buying them from
the farmers and shipping to the
larger markets.

Flow From Canadian
Border toUnited States

MONTREAL, Feb. 24.-The ques-
ton of whether the main flow Of
liquor from Canada to the United
States will be cut off hung in the
balance today. A, bill now before
the Quebec parliament would halt
whisky running and make the liquor
business in this province a govern
ment monopoly.
Premier Taschereau and his cabi-
net stoday are stalking their political
futures on the bill. If it fails to
pass, the cabinet will resign at once.
The proposed measure will make
the Quebec government the greatest
liquor dealer in the world. On May
the provincial government will as
sumo control of the liquor trade and
all eXDOrtS will be prohibited.

PLOT AGAINST ARMY
DISCIPLINE CHARGED
To SOVIET RUSSIA

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24-The Rus
, sian soviet government has institut-
ed a worldwide system Of propagan-
da designed to wreck the discipline
of all the armies in the world, includ-
ing Americas, according to Briga-
dier General D. e. Nolan, head of
the army intelligence division.
In testimony before the senate mil
itary affairs committee, made public
today, Nolan declared that instruc-
tions had been issued by the third
internationale at Moscow for the rad
icals of all countries to seek the
destruction of the military morale,
and particularly to attack the off,
GER personnel of the armies in Eu-
rope and the United States.
Nolan said he did not believe the
Bolsheviki had any Roadway in the
American army, but added that divi-
sion commanders were taking steps
to counteract any red literature that
went to American troops.
The Russian government, according
to Nolan, is following the same plan
in it's attack against foreign armies
as the one which ruined the old Rus
sian army-the idea of persuading
soldiers to agitate against their Of
ficers' and form soldiers councils to
wrest authority from the officers.
Nolan said that the Bolsheviki, in
their efforts to disintegrate world
government, were working along two
lines. Their other method, he said,
was to support armed attacks along
their frontiers.

The trans-Baikal region, with the
Bolshevik army Of central Siberia
