IN ENGLAND
IS MANY SIDED
LAWS DETAILS OF POLICY TO
BE GIVEN DURING THE WEEK.
CHIEF INTEREST IN ENG.
LISH POLITICAL SITUATION
SHIFTS TO GLASGOW.

London, Oct. 24.-Glasgow will be
the chief center of interest in the
political situation for the rest of the
week. The new prime minister, An
drew Bonar Law on Thursday will
announce the details of his policy
there, and 48 hours later former Pre-
mier Lloyd George will address a
meeting, being accompanied to- Scot
land by Sir Robert Horne, who was
his chancellor of the exchequer.
The Times political correspondent
emphasizes the Importance of the sit
uation in Glasgow, which, it says, is
due to the strength of the communis-
tic party among the industrial work
ers, adding that this is largely on
account of the reluctance Of the
Glasgow members Of the parliament
to abandon the coalition. The writer
suggests that this position is likely
to give impetus to the Scottish home
rule movement. ~.
1t is limited elsewhere that Bonar
Laws reelection as member from the
central division of Glasgow is in no
wise certain, and that he will be op-
posed by Sir George Paish as a free
liberal, in addition to the labor can
didate. Former Premier Asquith is
to speak in Glasgow next week.
In parts of Great Britain, notably
the Lancashire manufacturing towns
and Glasgow, there are large resident
Irish communities. How they will
cast their votes is arousing interest
both here and in Ireland. The Free.
mans Journal, Dublin newspaper
crystalizes it's advice to them in the
sentence:
: "'Wherever you see a die-hard
head, hit it, o."
T. H. O'Connor, whose Irish con
stituents in Liverpool are dissatis
fed with him because he remained 6
nationalist and because, although {
home ruler he supported neither Ea
mon de Valera nor Michael Collin:
in the House of Commons will pro
badly be opposed by a Sim Feir
candidate.

ADVERTISING PAYS

At the football game at Green
wood last Thursday Connie Starnes
turned his watch over to George
Smith for safe-keeping while Green
wood was being trimmed. When the
game was over and all the younger
boys rushed after the team to join
IN the jollifcation, George reached
in his pocket to give Connie the
watch, when to his utter astonish-
ment, he found nothing but an empty
pocket where the watch had been.
George was worried, but his father
was wise to the situation. He ad-
vertised for the lost watch in the
IndexJournal, and last night the
time-piece was mailed to him by that
paper. Some young man found it on
the fair grounds and turned it in.
He said that he found Georges
tracks near the watch and they in
dicated that when Abbeville made
the touchdown George jumped so
high he jolted the watch out of his
pocket when he hit the ground again.

TWO SCORE FACE
MURDER CHARGE
END OF INVESTIGATION OF
HERRIN -KILLINGS-MORE
THAN THREE HUNDRED TO
APPEAR IN COURTS OF ILL.
NOIS.

Marion, ILL.,, Oct. 24.-The special
grand jury which today resumed its
investigation of the Herrin mine
killings aftera months recess, late
this afternoon returned an indict-
ment for murder naming 48 persons
and announced it had completed its
work. This makes Ala persons the
grand jury has indicted in connec-
ton with the rioting in which %
men were killed.
Circuit Judge, Hartwell, before
whom the indictment was returned,
expressed the opinion that the true
bill is illegal because it was return
ed at the September term Of court
by a grand jury iznpaneled by the
July term Of court. States Attorney
De Lee Duty expressed an opposite
opinion and stated he would appeal
to the state supreme court if the IN
dictments were declared illegal.
Those indicted today were charg-
ed with the death of Ignace Kubinis
the last victim of the rioting to ex-
pire who died since the grand jury
took a temporary adjournment 80
days ago. Only a few witness were
heard today and they are said to
have told of wounds inflicted on
Kubinis, which are said to have re.
suited in his death.
In the total of the Ala indict-
ments, II individual persons are
named,i some of the men having as
high as nine indictments charging
! murder, rioting and assault facing
them. Twenty-one of the individuals
are charged only with rioting and as.
sault, leaving Sc indicted for murder
of the total. number of indictments
215 are for murder, 103 for assault
and 116 for rioting.
The legality of final 48 indict'
ments returned today may not be de
cided until next year, it was stated
tonight, because it was said there
probably would not be an opportun
ity to test the jury's proceeding
until the indictments voted toda!
are called for trial, which is not ex
| pected before 1928.

TEXAS POLITICS
STATE QUESTION
United States Judges Will Not In
tervene-Independent Loses
Their Fight.

New Orleans, La, Oct. 24.-Sup-
porters of E. B. Peddy lost their fight
today before a special tribunal Of
federal judges to force the use of
his name on the official Texas ballot
for United States senator instead OF
Earle B. Mayfeld, Democratic nomi-
nee and reputed Ku Klux Klan can
didate.
The judges held that they were
without jurisdiction to grant the re-
lief asked for by the Peddy faction,
adding that other questions than that
of jurisdiction were not considered.
The case was transferred to New
Orleans after an injunction had been
filed in Mobile to compel the secre-
tary of state of Texas to put the
name of Peddy on the ballots. Judge
Erwin of the Mobile federal court de-
iclined to hear the case on the
grounds of no jurisdiction.
Attorneys for the fusion candidate
announced they will carry their
fight to the United States supreme
court if necessary and those repre-
senting the state of Texas heralded
the decision as victory for state
rights.

A|RPLANES MAY
CIRCLE GLOBE
PLANS UNDER CONSIDERATION
FOR MONTHS.-VALUABLE
DATA ON AVAILABLE ROUTES
IN BOTH DIRECTIONS BEING
STUDIED

Washington, Oct. 24.-Teutatlve
plans for an attempted flight OF
army airplanes around the world
has been under consideration for
some months by air service officials,
it was learned today, but the project
has not as yet passed the prelimln-
ary survey stage, Valuable data on
available routes have been obtained
however, and ultimately it is hoped
to send a considerable aerial squaC-
ron on the voyage. The project will
not be laid before Secretary Weeks
for approval, it was said until IT
takes much more definite form.
Two of the routes considered are
that from the Atlantic coast via Ice
land and Ireland and that from the
Pacific via Alaska, the Aleutian is
lands, Siberia and home via, Ire
land and ireland. Air service ofaci-
ais said the route offering the most
favorable conditions as to prevail
ing winds would be selected should
the flight be ordered, and it would
then become necessary to obtain per
mission of each of the countries to
be traverser before the squadron
start.
The question Of air navigation BY
pilots of one country over the terri
tory Of another nation has been con-
sidered by the council of the league
of nations in order to establish uni
formity of practice. So for as the
United States and Canada are con-
caned, a recent agreement fixed re-
ciprocal rights for the two nations.
Army liers conceived the world
clfculing flight plan to line with the
reason which prompted President
Roosevelt to send the fleet around
the world in 1908, it was said. 1t
would have value both as step in
providing aerial defense throught
training and in giving the world a
better understanding of American
postwar Developments, Fliers of
other nations have understood, up to
this time without success, would cir
cling flights but only with single
plane while the American sir service
project would call for a fleet OF
aircraft and carefull preparations
involving considerable expenditure,
Possibly a special act of congress to
authorize a flight and make necess:
airy preparations would be necessary
should the secretary approve the
plan.
For this reason it is expected that
NO definite steps will be taken for 8
year or more. !
