An Interesting Fight Begins.

Mr.. McAdoo's chief supporter at San

Marietta, Ohio. speaks of the request

made. He does not say what he is
going to do about it, beyond announc.
Ting that he will take the matter up
with the executive committee he has
recently appointed. and which will
meet in this town on the 18th instant.
There is nothing violent in assum-

White will take the matter up with
Gov. Cox. and be advised Of the gov

All three factions are justified in
the belief that it is not too soon to
get busy even for 1924. The repub-

A National Legion Memorial.

The executive board OF the Amerl-
can Legion is in session in this city
at present, considering with other
things the question of the tender by
the knights of Columbus of a gift of
$4,000, 900 for the erection here Of
permanent headquarters for the le-
gion and a memorial to the American
soldiers in the great war. A special
committee has recommended the &C.
ceptance of this munificent gift, and
the hope is that the executive board
will follow this recommendation and
thus insure the creation here of a
memorial Of unitarian as well as
artistic and sentimental character to
the heroes of the war.
Such monument would stand per-
manently to insure patriotism and
self-sacrifice in defense Of the ma
tons ideals. 1t would provide meet
ing place where service men from all
parts of the country will always find
a welcome and a home while visiting
the nations capital. It would thus

how the government is run and to real.
ize and appreciate that each man is
part Of it.
Such a creation would be a fitting
home for an organization that has in
two years grown to include 100000
members, organized into 10000 posts.
It would fill an urgent need in the
National Capital for a municipal au-
ditorium, accommodating the many
great conventions that come here and
are hampered by lack of adequate
meeting place.
The Knights of Columbus rendered
. service Of great value to the Ameri-
can expeditionary forces during the
war and through them to the country
Itself. The money they propose to
give is the surplus left from the ma
tion-wide contribution to a group of
war service organizations which the
early signing of the armistice rem
dered In part unnecessary. 1t is a
dtttng use to which this money can
be put and in rendering the gift the
Knights Of Columbus have expressed
their recognition Of the fact that in
no better way can those who gave
the funds be served than by the crea-
ton here Of national home for the
organization in whose ranks are en-
rolled the survivors Of the great force

considerable interest.
II is OF special interest here to note
that Mr.. Reed said that these calves
showed the highest quality and uni

Gus Boone Comfy Calf Club OF Indiana.
Besides this he gave the reasons for
placing the calves as he did and many

very fayorably impressed with our

Henry Ford the we'll known flivver
manufacturer was q guest OF Iron
Mountain this week. He was accom-
panied by Edsel Ford, president OF the
Ford Motor Co. and the general mana
ger OF the concern, Mr.. Avery.
The Fords are no strangers In Iron
stMountain where they were known
long before the days OF the auto and
when Henry was an ordinary machin-
ist. The party spent much OF the time
at Iron Miuntain making an inspec.
tion OF the big plant which has been
erected there to manufacture the
lumber needed in the manufacture Of
his automobile.
The Fords were guests at dinner
party given by the Rotary Club of
Iron Mountain at which much talk
ing was done. the Iron Mountain
people emphasizing their desire TO
work harmoniously with the new
enterprise which means so much TO
that place.
The principle speakers were Messrs
f. +. Brown and Chas. d. Symonds
who assured the guests OF the thoro-
ugh appreciation by the Iron Mount

industrial life of the city aud gave
assurances OF the largest possible
measure of cooperation In the deyei-

general hope that the adven; of
