Every business house in the business
district Of Maysville is now occupied
except one. What has become OF that
fellow who said only little while ago
that times would soon be so dull that
half the business houses in town would
be empty and weeds would grow in the
streets?

WASHINGTON LETTER.
SccoG0oGo Coo G00o0cs

Washington, mo permanent 30
luton for European problems car
come through outside suggestion, de-
clares the Republican Publicity Asso-
citation. 1T is futile for the Uniteo
States to attempt remedies, either
acting independently or through the
league of nations, as the internaton-
alists advocate. The Old World trou-
bles are too deep seated and have con-
tinued for too long time to be SO
easily disposed of. Moreover, inter1er-
enoe in such matters is not sought
and would not be accepted. the as
sistance sought from America mas
never been of that kind. Financial aid
in one form or another is what foreign
nations would like to get from the
United States, while they continue TO
nurse animosities that frequently
burst into wars and are responsible
for present conditions abroad.
Secretary Hughes presented the
matter very clearly when he said IN
his Boston speech the fundamental
and pressing problems of Europe are
political problems involving national
hopes and fears; deep seated con'lc-
lions as to national safety and oppor-
tunity; national ambitions, in some
cases long cherished, in others re-
GENTLY awakened; established policies
which have become postulates in the
thought Of the peoples. Each nation Is
its own Judge in such matters OF pol
icy, and, whether acting in or out Oh
groups, will follow its own interests
save as some special exigenoy may
control
"Mr. Hughes might we'll have added
national honor as being involved IN
the problems of Europe. Tit woulo
have completed the description OF the
political atmosphere into which our
internationalist friends seek to project
the United States.
1--WE have been told that the league
of nations would become vital force
the moment this country should be-
come a member. Does anybody mag
inc this country should become a mem
Der. Does anybody imagine that Amer
lean recommendations affecting the
national honor, safety, and ambitions
of European nations would be received
any more kindly if offered through the
leageu than if delivered independent
w. In neither case would such action
by the United States have any ether
effect than to inflame the iealousies oil
this country that already rankle In
foreign breasts. The administrator
policy of non-interference in those
alien problems is everlastingly sound

Our Daily Poem
mot UNDERSTOOD.

(By THOMAS BRACKEN, New Zea-
land Poet)
Not understood, we move asunder,
Our paths go wider as the seasons
creep
Along the years. We marvel and We
wonder
Why life is life, and then we go to
sleep
Not Understood.
Not understood, we gather false i'm
pressions
And mug them closer as the years
go by,
Til virtue oft seems to us transgres-
sion
And thus men rise and fall and live
and die
Not Understood.
Not understood, We make so much of
trifles;
The thoughtless sentence or the fam
cied slight
Has oft destroyed a friendship years in
making
And on our souls there fall a chilly
blight
Not Understood.
Not understood, how many breasts are
aching
For words OF sympathy All! yes, to-
day
How many hungry hearts are break
ing,
How many noble spirits pass away
Not IIndar6tOOd

Coach Schneider gave the students
of High School some pretty straight
talk on school spirit a few days ago
and there's no doubt but that they
needed it. The town people have never
given the High School athletics the
support they should have and much
of it is probably due to lack of in
terest on the part of the student body
itself

HOW DO you BUY YOUR
MONEY?

How do you buy your money! For
money is bought and sold.
And each man barters himself ON
earth for his silver and shining
gold.
And by the bargain he makes with
men the sum of his life is told.
Some buy their coins in manly way,
some buy it with honest toll,
Some pay for their currency here on
earth by tilling natch of soil;
Some buy it with copper and iron and
steel, and some with barrels of
oil.
The good man buys it from day to
day by giving the best he can.
He coins his strength for his chill
dren's needs and lives TO simple
plan,
And he keeps some time for the home
he makes and some for his fell
bowman.
But some men buy it with women's
tears and some with blasted
name.
And some will barter the joy of life
for the fortune they hope to
claim.
And some are so mad for the clink of
gold that they buy it with deeds
of shame.
How do you buy your money? For
money demands its price,
And some men think when they pur-
chase coin that they mustn't be
over nice.
But beware of the man who would
sell you gold at a shameful sacri-
flee.

Wagner's setting aside of the stock
judicial reasoning is striking. His
decision, in part, follows;
Justice Holds that Equity Courts Are
For Purpose of Equity Only.
THE plaintiff employers do not
come into court with clean hands,
since they preached the collective bar
gaining contract to which they with
others and the defendant union were
parties when they tried to force a
wage reduction in October. The pre-
cedent set in the Hitchman Coal &
Coke Company against the United

vicinity Of the plaintiffs place Of
business. | know of no sound prin-
ciple of law which prohibits orderly
picketing or that which does not
transgress on the rights of others.
Indeed, a great body of law affirma-
lively establishes the opposite propo-
sition.
Picket Right Guaranteed.
THE right TO picket is founded on
constitutional principles; and, al
though 1t might appear that some re-
cent adjudications in certain jurisdic-
tons encroach upon this right, the
constitutional guarantee still survives
and must be respected and upheld.
Nor Is il material whether one or
several pickets be maintained. Right
or wrong Is not determined by mere
considerations The act of
a single man, If right, is not made
wrong because it is performed by
several men.
Free Speech Upheld.
"The right To freedom of speech
and freedom of action belongs not
only to the individual but to individ.

Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.--The
Canadian mounted police, at one time
looked upon as the embodiment Of
stern justice, has descended 10 the
methods of the eossaek, says the
Alberta Labor News.
Zone has only TO read the evil
dence Of Corporal Zaneth and others
in the Winnipeg trials to learn Of
the despicable depths to which the
force, as such, descended. Men have
been employed who made II their
business 10 incite the workers Of
parts Of Canada TO acts of violence
Labor organizations exercising their
privileges Of free assemblage have
been spied upon by agents of the
mounted police masquerading as
members of trade unions. The re-
ports of the expenditure Of the force
during the past year show how a
considerable portion Of the amounts
expended was used to pay men to at
tend labor meetings.
"We have a new government In
Canada and il is 10 be hoped that the
new administration will use its pow
ers in a wiser and better way. There
is no need or desire for the agent
provocateur in this Dominion and
the peace Of the nation will certainly
not be enhanced by the knowledge on
the part of a large proportion Of the
people that they are under suspicion
and subject TO the surveillance Of
/ spys."
