IF CHAMPIONSHIP HAD BEEN
DECIDED BY VOTE.

+ Down deep in his heart, if he is en-
dowed with the finer sensibilities pos
sessed by most men, Jack Dempsey
would doubtless gladly surrender the
honors and cash he has won in the
ring if by doing so he could be ele-
waited to a position of 100 per cent
Americanism. He is probably the
greatest ring fighter the world has
ever produced. and this fact adds to
The obloquy of his conduct in failing
TO fight for his country in war. He
may and probably will win other bat
ties in the ring, but he made a losing
when his country called for men that
can never be recouped. In striking
contrast with Dempsey's war record
is that of Carpenter. He served his
country Loyalty and was honored for
service and he was
hailed in this country as a hero of
the world war rather than of the
prize ring. Although here to fight
native American, public sentiment
was overwhelmingly in favor of the |
Irenchman, and if the contest could |
have been decided by popular vote,
carpenter would have received a
majority that would have made that
'eceived by Harding and Coolidge
ook like a close vote.

Mining Near Medimnnt

Carl Johnson and Albert Allen. two
miners well known at Kellogg, are
drifting on a vein of great promise
about mile and a half south Of
Medimont. The drift is now in about
$50 feet and about 40 feet more will
bring the face under a remarkably

usual crushing and concentrating
equipment it also has flotation and
cyanide plants The Premier is the
property which some two years ago
attracted so much attention when the
news of its large and wonderfully
rich ore body reached the public.

George Cox died in that city on May

Cox was a familiar figure in Wallace

original owners of the Rock Island

a substantial cash payment for his

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ASSOCI
ALTON AND LEAGUE.

Advocates Of the league of nations
profess to see no difference between
the league and an association OF ma
tons for the purpose OF promoting
peace and disarmament Stupid they
are. indeed. BY the provisions of the
league covenant the United States
would bind itself to act in accordance
with the DEGREES OF a league council
or assembly not only in the matter OF
war and armament but in all other
matters which could be interpreted as
threatening war That was the effect
of the covenant, taken as a whole. 1t
was the creation of a superstate from
which a nation could not withdraw
except upon two years notice and
then only on condition that its obl-
cations had been fulfilled up to the
time of Withdrawal For all practi-
cal purposes, the United States, if
member, would he compelled to ac-
cept the decisions of the league or be
branded as a repudiator OF agree
ments
An association of nations would be
formed for the one purpose Of agree
ing upon a plan of disarmament no
nation Or group of nations would I
have any power to coerce any other /
nation. and the United States would /
be absolutely free forever after to act
in each particular case according to
it's own judgment and conscience. The
league covenant proposed to bind the
United States to go to war at the
command of the league. After par
tcipating in an association Of ma
tons, the United States would still
be free to go to war or not to go to
war according to its own judgment of ,
the right and wrong OF the contro- I
versy.
The United States has been an as
sociate of other nations in the past. :
1t was an associate in the war in VI
Europe-not one of the allies. The O

would be constructed in Placer creek
near the head of King street to form

Salute to the Trees
CHenry Van Dyke)

Many a tree is found in the wood,
And every tree for its use is good;
Some for the strength of the gnarled
root
Some for the sweetness of flower or
fruit;
Some for shelter against the storm,
And some to keep the hearth-stone
warm;
Some for the roof and some for the
beam.
And some for the boat to breast the
stream;
In the wealth of the wood since the
world began,
The trees have offered their gifts to
man.
But the glory of trees is more than
their gifts;
'Tis a beautiful wonder of life that
lifts
From a wrinkled seed in an earth
bound clod,
A column. an arch in the temple of
God,
A pillar of power. a dome of delight,
A shrine of song. and a joy of sight!
Their roots are the nurses of rivers
in birth;
Their leaves are alive with the breath
of the EARTH
They shelter the dwellings of man;
and they bend
Ger his grave with the look of a low
ing friend.
I have camped in the whispering for
est of pines,
I have slept in the shadow of olives
and vines;
In the knees of an oak at the foot of
a palm
] have found good rest and slumber's
balm
And now. when the morning gilds the
boughs
OF the vaulted elm at the door of my
house.
open the window and make salute;
God bless thy branches and feed thy
root
Thou hast lived before, live after me.
Thou ancient friendly, faithful tree"

TRYING TO KILL WORLD PEACE

Americas call to the nations for conference looking
towards general disarmament and future world peace is
likely to be- as William Jennings Bryan suggests the.
greatest move in centuries The result hoped for would
save millions of human lives and bring peace and happ
ness to thousands of millions of people, born and unborn
And yet at the very outset of this magnificent world
movement that cheap skate of notoriety known to the
public Lord Northcffe places its hopedfor results in
jeopardy by injecting into the negotiations his little
pffng personal quarrel with the prime minister of Great
Britain In his newspapers, which have to be by
words of contemplate sensaonaism under his derction
he attempts dstrust among the negotators.
When that conference opens suspicion is the last thing
should there The peoples of the world demand
that peace and good will shall be the password and the
prayer of that meeting and Norhcffes shameful efforts
to prevent such feeling and thereby destroy the hope
of mankind for universal peace, should place upon him
the mark of Cain. Already he the handwriting on
the wall because he has apoogized to Lloyd George for
his despicable act Having dispatched his of dis
trust he now-forsooth-begs the premier to let the.
matter drop We are very much mistaken if the world
public will let the matter drop.

space of less than fifteen years-make real democracy

believe democracy The only people who dstrustful

lying dplomatsts, all of whom he has taken into camp
and beaten to pulp.

PRESIDENT HARDING MISLEAD

President Harding certainly does the South a gross
Injustice unhinkngy, of when he states that
1T must be shocking to the American people to realize
that the South is actually menaced with famine and
plague" He was referring the pelagra situation 1t
must be said that his words than shocking to
the South 1t is serious thing for the President of the
United States be misead in matter that affects an
entire section of the country We think Mr. Harding
ought to come out and correct the impression he has given
the country.
Some commentaries gone far to say that the
President was led his peagra and famine state
ment and the offer of his administration and the govern
do everything possible to alleviate the suffering
Of the people Of the South purely matter of political
expedency put the Republican party in an attitude OF
generous sympathy and for the South, and to
ingratiae itself with the people of this section of the
country moved in that direction perhaps by the thought
that "They will not smite the hand that feeds
We doubt the accuracy of that assumption. We cannot
believe that the executive of great nation would stoop
TO such base tactics.
Anyway President Harding overspoke himself, and
the South has been done great injustice

Out at school meeting Rural HILL the past week
one of the speakers, in discussing the allotment of the
floating State school fund.- stated that it was the policy
of the State Board not to alo money to counties which
have made general levy for schools and pointed out
that Lowndes and Monroe the only counties in the
State that have made levy for schools
This astounding statement led of the audience to
excaim Thank God for Monroe there is chance for
Lowndes not to be the most backward county in the
State"
Lowndes county faces most serious school situation.
Unless additional levy of mill two is made for
the rural schools the school term will be cut to six
months and in years it will have to be cut to four
months
This levy would only apply to the county outside the
city Of Columbus The Columbus separate school district
