ARMY Of SUN IS
REPORTED SPLIT
IN Z SECTIONS
Is Bearing Down on Chen'S
Headquarters at WeiChoW
in Attempt to Save South
China Republic.

Annoy, China, June 25 (by the AS.
sociated Press SUNS army from
the province of kiangsi, which he
mad marched out of Canton a few
weeks ago to conquer the north
and unite all China under his own
banner, has turned in its tracks
and split into two sections, is bear
ing down on Chen's headquarters
at Weichow in what is believed hera
to be a forlorn hope to save the
wreck Of the South China republic.
At the head of the Kinagsi leYies
is General Hsu SungChi, known ds
the trouble maker of Kwang
Tung," an avowed enemy of Chen
Chung Ming and the man whose
plots are said to have done mucn
to bring about the final break be-
tween Chen and Sun. The vac
guard of Hsu's forces and the pick
cts of Chen's army encamped
around Weichow already are re-
ported to have clashed in prelim-
mary skirmlshes.
Hsu, with little to anticipate il
victory perched on Chen's banners,
is rushing his divided army against
Weichow by forced marches and
by railroad. One wing is travelling
overland from Shuikwan, while the
other is taking the railroad from
Shiukwan to point between Can
ton and Weichow, the two advances
constituting a pinchers movement
in which Hsu and sun hope to
crush Chen at WeichoW.
The general opinion here is tina.
Hsu's advance is Suns last card
in the game for south China and
that it cannot win.
In the meantime the city of Can
ton is reported to have become
thoroughly consolidated against
sun Yat Sen and in favor of the
Picking governments united China
program. The southern navy, de-
spite Suns assertions to the con-
trary, is declared to have disowne

other residents of the city at n

questing General Chen Chung
Ming to return to Canton from
Weichow and urging cessation Of
all hostilities. The meeting also

to mark the retirement of Sun Yat-
Sen from the presidency.

"OUR SPLENDID ISOLATION"

Day by day the wisdom of Woodrow Wilson is being
proven. The Splendid isolation of the United States
from participation in European affairs is being felt keeny
and the folly of Lodge and his bitter ender is dawn
ing upon the people, Even Vice President Coordge has
the light and out in statement practically admit
ting that it mistake not to enter the League of Ma
tons. The Baltimore conference and the Genoa con-
ference prove that erred in rejecting the plans of Wood
low Wilson,
1t is being and more clearly demonstrated that
until Europe is stabilized and trade revived that there can
be prosperity in the United States And that the peo
pie repudiatng the Republican policy Of eness and
partsanshp is demonstrated by every election recently
The bterenders able to fool people in the national
eeeton and by receiving the solid proGeman vote gave
Harding the greatest majority known but when we
consider that more than six million German sympathzer
voted sodly for him the majority does not appear so
formidable Nearly ten million real American voters

WHAT TEAM WORK WILL DO.

Morgan county, in raising the fund for the Normal
School, has demonstrated what team work will do Even
if should fail to the school that work is not lost
1t demonstrates that by getting together we can put any
good thing over The Courier is confident that we will Sc
cure the school but in the event that we do not we have
shown that we can get together and do big things.
The Courier has repeatedly called attention to the
fact that the best road for West Liberty in the matter of
highways one not the system Of highways planned
by the State and insisted that try for this addition at
last session of the legislature That is road from here
to Morehead road to Morehead would put us 80 miles
to trunk line of railroad than the one to Mt Ster
ling and even on the very best roads 80 miles mean quite
saving in freghts. 1t is remotely possible that More
head might get the school and in that case the road would
be to be built But if we get the school it is
worth while to try for the road We ought to begin
now to work for and at the next session of the Legsla
re have it added to the States system of highwa IS
road to Morehead would put 80 miles nearer though
line Of railroad and would be only about five miles fur
ther from Lexington and Mt Sterling than the road now
planned by Mt Sterling, and this saving of distance in
freights will amount to thousands of dollars annually
little team work would put the matter on foot and
need not wait for the session of the legislature to begin
We could secure the rights of way and do lot of premi
nary work and have the matter ready for speedy con-
strucon as soon as the Legislature made part of the
State system
Let's get together and boos and work for this road.

FREIGHT RATES LOWERED.

The Interstate Commerce Commission has ordered
reduction in freight rates of ten per cent This is not
great reduction as the railroad men feared but it is
considerable saving to the public.
1t is estimated that the present savings in freight
amounts to $2O0000,000 If the dealers give the public
the benefit of this reduction it will be saving of about
$500 per capita for the nation annually
But tlowered freight rates do not always lower
ing of prices From producer to consumer long road
and there are so many profit takers that the
