A Successful Farmer.

About this time Count Mielischinsky.
Doliwa's father. died and the son took
over the management of the family es-
tates. These were in extremely bad shape,
burdened with mortgages and out of re-
pair. In a very short time, however,
Doliwa cleared the debts and introduced
a successful system of scientific farm
ing.
When the war broke out Doliwa was
recalled to the army. Again. with his
usual virtuosity in whatever he turned
a hand to, he made a brilliant record
leading troops into action and rescuing
wounded. For this he received the Iror
Cross of the First Glass. then high
honor and not the war profteer's bribe
Il became later.
AS liaison officer between the German
general staff and the Filsudski legion
aries, Doliwa became active in the
movement for Polish independence. Later.
when this became known, the German
authorities confiscated all his property
in Germany This, combined with the
memory of the early discipline he re-
ceived in the hands of the Prussian au-
thorities. gives Doliwa a double hatred
of the Prussian military machine he Is
now facing.
In the several conversation I have
had with him ! have the impression
that he is heart and soul in the nsur-
gent cause and working for a greater
Poland. Doliwa. alias Mielischnsky re-
mains, however the leader Of an insur-
rection, the daredevil chief of what is
still an illegal cause. and fits this role
better than that of either a great SOL
der or a possible statesman.

Berlin, June 10.
The apparent accidents in politics
which accord the distinction of sue
cess to one man rather than another
have had a surprising influence in
Germany in recent weeks. For in
consequence of two wholly inferior
circumstances DR.. Simons no longer
is Foreign Minister, DR.. Stresemann,
chairman of the Volkspartei, failed to
become Chancellor and Dr. Wirth, who
only four years ago was a simple lee
turer on political economy in a south
ern German college, has been pro-
NOTED to the highest political position
in Germany.
One of these lesser circumstances
can only be explained in Washington.
IL was the unwillingness of the State
Department, during the reparations
crisis. to advise either officially or
unofficially that the German Govern
ment (then represented by Chancellor
Simons) subscribe to the Paris repa-
rations programme of the Allies.
Those who were informed of what
was playing behind the curtain of
Cabinet meetings here know that be-
fore the ultimatum was formulated
Germany might have signed the Paris
terms, with their 226 billions of repa-
ratons payments. And in place Of
this they waited a fortnight and signed
new settlement which cost them the
capital sum Of more than 80 billions
more. So that enemies of the Fehren
bach regime now designate it as the
most expensive Ministry in German
history
Cabinet Not Unanimous.
The Cabinet was not unanimous for
the policy of non-acceptance. DR.. Simons
had pledged himself by incautious
speeches not to subscribe to the Paris
figures. But in the stress of the days
of crisis the peril of this attitude be-
came apparent. and several of his col
leagues urged him to sign the Paris fig
ures rather than to risk an ultimatum
naming a higher sum.
The note OF Secretary Hughes went
far TO strengthen this view in Govern
ment circles For after decliaing TO arbi-
trate the reparations question. and after
finding the German terms unsuited as a
basis for negotiations, he quite pointedly
had advised the Germans to make their
very best offer as quickly as possible.
But what very best offer" he had in
mind he did not say. and the Germans
were unable to learn. not even officially
or unofficially. from Ellis Dresel the
American commissioner.
The opinion of those advocating a
signing OF the Paris terms was that the
sum did not matter nearly so much as
the manner of payment. And they
argued that If Germany accepted the
figure of 226 billion marks gold she
then might count on a conference oi

STATE AND FEDERAL
 FORCES CLASH, BUT
 POLICE VICTORIOUS
Ky Associated Press

New York, April 23.-The first clash for authority today between the police and federal agents since the states new prohibition law went into effect. resulted in victory for the local bluecoats-but not until endorsements were called. When two policemen took a ten-ton truck to confiscate 638 cases of cham pagne, vermuth and sauterne, which they said was illegally stored in a mer- chants warehouse, they found a num- Der of federal enforcement agents, who denied that the police had a right to remove the liquor
 The two husky policemen, however, ap- peared unimpressed. Summoned by tele- phone, several other bluecoats appeared a few minutes later The federal agents were threatened with arrest if they in terfered. Finally, they stood aside while the local authorities loaded the truck and drove to police headquarters.
 During the day William Jennings Bryan called at police headquarters for half an hour to tell Commissioner Enright he was jolly we'll delighted with the po- lice crusade to dry up the city and that he was with the commissioner Ito dry ing up of the last drop of the state and nations liquor''
 Arrests for alleged violation still were greatly exceeding indictments today. Deputy Commissioner Leach reported .5 arrests during the preceding 24 hours. The grand jury in Kings county refused to indict in Is out of 21 cases of alleged violations presented. The grand jury an- nounced the general policy of refusing to indict persons arrested for carrying flasks of liquor solely for personal use, as well as persons arrested whose private homes had been raided.

PLANT CORN EARLY

There are two more or less dis

ard strains of corn in this section
namely about March LIST and
April ), is very apt to be destroy,

first planting season gets the corn
out of danger before the root
worm makes its appearance; and
the second planting period comes
after the first generation of root
worm has passed into the chrySa-

first planting season as it is im-
possible to Seccecd with corn
planted later on account of the

BY planting early not later than
the first week of March, or pro-

we can raise fairly good corn tc
