Invidns Russia to Genoa

Russia is keen to go to Genoa,
The Bolsheviki will send the
strongest delegation they can get
together; Il Is expected that Lenin
will head II. Russia expects a gain
from Genoa. In fact, all Europe
expects a gain from Genoa espe-
cially IL the United States partici-
pates, but all Europe is not quite
comfortable about representatives
of the nations sitting in councli
with Bolshevik emissaries. The
London Morning Post. which was
continuously bitter about the irish
negotiations, says Mr.. Lloyd george
is accustomed. now, to conferring
with "assasins" and. therefore,
ought to be quite at ease with the
Bolsheviki. Various British jour
nails express doubt as to the good
faith Of the Russian Soviet Gov
ernment: the guarantee which the
Bolsheviki might make are not
generally thought of value unless
secured by some sort Of leverage.
Concerning the invitation to Russia
and guarantees.that the Bolshevtki
may give the Morning Post says:
Mr.. Lloyd Georges scheme for
the economic reconstruction OF Eu-
rope outlined at Cannes, involves
the recognition OF the Bolsheviki.
The prime minister insists upon the
necessity Of certain strong guar
antees before such recognition win
be accorded. The question immedi-
stely arises whether any guaran-
tees given by the Bolsheviks are
worth the paper on which they are
written. Mr.. Lloyd George mas had
some experience in this matter. lie
was responsible for the conclusion
of a trading agreement with the
Soviet leaders. That agreement in
sisted on certain guarantees. which
were given and which have been
broken In every particular.

change their tactics but they can
not change their natures. They

GEO. Fl. BLACK, DEMOCRAT,
ELECTED PROSECUTING ATTY

In the county the Democrats
made a gain of about 1900 on the
head of the ticket, over the vote of
two years ago. Atty Geo. H.
Black, Democrat, was elected pros
ecuting attorney by about 80 votes.
A number of other Democratic can
didates made splendid runs, and
lacked but a few votes of going un-
der the wire. Mr.. Blacks victory
is all the more remarkable, owing
to the fact that he was i'll during
the entire campaign and unable to
be away-1from his home. Since
1920 the Democrats have had
but a single presiding judge
in the county-that of Center,
which was the only township
in the county to go Democratic two
years ago. This year number of
the former Democratic townships
that had fallen by the wayside,
came back into the Democratic
fold with old time majorities.

cincts consult the abstract on this

are not included in the totals, and

HARDING R[PUD|ATED

One of the biggest political land
slides ever in the United States, in
other than a presidential year, was
that of Tuesday when the Demo
Gratis wiped out the unprecedented
Republican majorities of two
years ago, and elected their own
candidates in many states by big
majorities. Perhaps not a place
where the election was held did the
Republicans hold their own, COM
pared with the vote of two years
ago. This was the first opportuni-
ty the voters had to express them
selves by their ballot, on the Hard
ing administration, and the express
sion was decisive. Surely the ad-
ministration could find nothing of
solace in the returns. Here in the
Presidents own state his candidate
for governor Carmi Thompson, in
whose behalf the administration
used every means possible and
thus to hold the state, met defeat,
when Harding's majority of 402,-
900 was swept aside, and Vic Don
ahey was elected by about $4,000.
In New York Harding's majority
of 1920, of over a million, vanish
ed like snow bali In blast fur
mace, Smith the Democratic candi-
date being elected by a majority
conservatively estimated at over
100000 Many other states fall in
to the Democratic column in much
the same fashion. Senator Freling-
huysen in New Jersey one of Hard
ing's staunchest supporters, Cald-
er in New York, Townsend in Mich
igan, Kellogg from Minnesota, Du-
pont from Delaware, Sutherland in
West Virginia, were all defeated.
Other states to elect Democratic o..
S. Senators, to succeed Republi-
cans are Maryland, VIM. C. Bruce,
and Indiana, Samuel M. Ralston.
In the lower house from present
returns it appears that the Demo
Gratis have gained Is seats in New

sas; in Tennessee, in West Vir-
ginia. 8 in Ohio; 5 in Indiana;
in Oklahoma, and others scattered
from various states.

ant occasion.

BURGLAR WHO ENTERED THE
ROBINSON HOME ARRESTED

Monday evening Fred Prentice,
aged 36 years, was arrested here
by Sheriff Stallsmith, on the charge
of burglary, having entered the
residence of Mr. John Robinson
near Neelyville, and secured SOL
so. Prentice and wife came from
Washington state to the home OF
Mr.. Robinson last July. His wife
is niece of Mr.. Robinson. They
remained at the Robinson home for
about nine weeks, then went to
GAINESVILLE, and rented rooms of Mr..
Harry Robinson, the adopted son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. John Robinson, since
which time Prentice has been en-
ployed with the Mark Manufacture
ing Co. Monday evening Miss FL
ma Farnsworth who makes her
home with Mr.. and Mrs. John Rob-
inson, heard a noise about. the
premises and thinking that it was
down cellar went to investigate,
and in coming around the house
she saw man jump off ladder
which reached to an upstairs win
dow. She at once recognized Prem
tice, and called to him by name,
but he ran down the road, got in
his car driving on toward Neely-
vile, but turned around and drove
back past the Robinson home. Miss
Farnsworth was still out at the
| roadside when he drove by, and
again recognized him and called
| him.
Next she telephoneG 20 Charles
Peck, Malta, and told him of the
circumstances Mr. Peck called
Sheriff Stallsmith, who was in bed,
but he was soon in action, and got
in his machine intending to run
Prentice down, having seen him
pass through here AS luck would
have it the boat was passing
through the bridge, which delayed
Prentice about Is minutes, and the
sheriff soon had him in custody.
He attempted to elude thel sheriff
by telling him that the machine
which was an Oldsmobile was not
his, but belonged to two other par
ties, and it would appear that he
had planned to abandon the auto at
the bridge, and make his getaway
on foot. However his plans were
foiled, and he was lodged in Jail
here
At the time Prentice entered the
Robinson house Mr.. and Mrs. Rob
inson were in bed in a down stairs
room, ana MISS FarnSWOrtn was
sewing. The window Prentice en-
tered led to the room where Miss
Farnsworth slept, and it was up.
When Prentice was at the Robinson
home last summer he made himself
familiar with the house and it's
surroundings He also knew
that Mr.. Robinson had at that time
several hundred dollars worth of
government bonds, and it was these
no doubt that he was trying to get.
Mr.. Robinson however, in the mean
time had deposited the bonds in
safe keeping. When Sheriff STALL
smith searched Prentice he found
$58 loose in his pocket, and
pocket book containing $3.50, also
aFshare of Malta Canning stock is
sued to Mr.. Robinson in his own
name.

JOHN II. PORTER DIES
FOLLOWING AN OPERATION

Last week mention was made
that Mr.. John r. Porter of near
Joetown in Malta township, had the
evening before undergone an opera
ton at the Bethesda hospital,
GAINESVILLE, for appendicitis, and
that his condition was critical. He
lived until Sunday morning when
about 8 o'clock he passed away.
With him when the end came were
his wife and his father and broth
er. While Mr.. Porter had not been
feeling well for several days, he
had worked up until Monday noon
of last week with Mr.. George Ar
cher on their oil lease. The body
was brought to the family home
Sunday afternoon.
Mr.. Porter was the son of Mr.. AL
fred A. Porter and. wife-the late
Mary Trainer Porter, and would
have been 81 years of age the COM
ing January. His death occurred
on the seventh anniversary of his
mothers death. He was born and
spent his entire life on the farm
on which he died. His wife who
was Myrtle Benjamin, daughter of
the late John Benjamin of Malta,
Frank and Ruth, pupils in M. & M.
high school, and Robert, Pauline,
Kenneth, John and Janette, all of
the home. His father Mr.. Alfred
A. Porter and one brother Mr. VIM.

vive, and two aunts Mrs. Lydia X.
Smith of Denver, Colo, and Miss
Ella Trainer. The latter made her
homo with tho dQooacpd
Mr.. Porter was one of the thrifty
farmers of the county, and one of
our very best and most highly re-
garded residents. All his life he
followed farming. Although of a
retiring disposition he had large
circle of friends who will learn
with much sorrow of his passing.
He was a Mason, his membership
being with Valley Lodge No. las,
and under the auspices Of that
lodge his funeral was held Wednes-
day afternoon at O'Clock, at the
Deerield Presbyterian church, with
burial in the cemetery at that place.
