SUICIDE TOLL WAS
10000 LAST YEAR
Reaction Following War Blamed
by Sdve-d-Life League,

New York. Reaction following
the war was blamed by the Save
allie League for the large num-
Der of suicides in 1921, 10000 Of which
were estimated to have taken place In
this country.
The number of cases brought to the
leagues attention was 1880, Of which
S410 were males and 1874 females.
One Of the striking features Of the
report is the increase In the number
of suicides Of children, which was ATT
in 1919, TOT In 1920, and S5s in 1921.
There also were 500 war veterans
among the suicides last year.
All classes Of society were included
in the list Of those who took their own
lives. There were 10 editors, 40 stu
dents, 81 school teachers, 81 clergy
men, 80 brokers, 81 judges and law
yers, SO physicians, seven mayors, So
heads of large corporations, rs million
aires, 80 wealthy women, and 90 bank
ers, including 81 bank presidents. The
oldest suicide was 100 and the young
est 5.
All sorts Of reasons were given by
the victims. One man hung himself
because his wife was "too good" for
him; another because his wife was
spending all his money; another be-
cause he could not stand the noise Of
neighbors' piano, and another because
his wife refused to kiss him.
One spinster took poison, leaving a
note that mo man in the world Is
good enough for me" and another took
her life because her son wouldn't mar
ry to pIeace her. One man left note
stating, beware Of grass widows"
and another killed himself "for the
good of the !. w. W."

battle royal every minute Of the day.
Regardless of the weather the wo-

very active part in the election.
Rev. F. G. Radabaugh, the defeat
ed candidate for mayor who by his
gained statewide reputation by his
drastic enforcement of violations of
the law, stated his platform of a
more rigid enforcement of the law in
the future if he was reelected and a
council with his own ideas was given
him.

by him to win and his efforts to de-
feat the opposing force were untir-
ing the good people of the city whose
only pledge was fair and honest
enforcement of the law
The mayor elect, J. A. Viquesney
addressed crowd of hundreds of
people on the street shortly after
the total vote was made known from
the four wards and promised that
during his next term as mayor he
would as he had in his six former
terms as mayor and give everyone
who came before him fair and i'm
partial trial and that he would do his
utmost to make the town bigger and
better and use evry effort to have the
cleanest and best administration ever
in the city during the coming year.
Every candidate on the ticket was
elected by good majority and Mr..
Viquesney made it plain that the
coming administration would extend
a glad handshake, and that automo-
bile clubs Of the country might now
tear down their "avoid Belington"
signs and without fear
and trembling come through
the beautiful little city Of Belington.

CITIZENS TICKET
WINS AFTER
HEATED CONTEST
ONE OF THE MOST HOTLY CON-
TESTED ELECTION EVER
HELD IN THE CITY

The city election held Tuesday was
one of the warmest and most inter-
esting contests held in Belington for
years. Men and Women were out in
great numbers at each voting pre-
cinct. The Citizens Ticket, headed
by Jules "A. Viquesney for mayor,
won out, and the Law and Order Tic
ket headed by Mayor Radabaugh
goes down, and those who were dis
satisfied with the strict law enforce
ment rejoice.
Those who opposed the present adj
minstration knew that it would take
a strong man to win over Mayor
Radabaugh who had been talked Of
strongly weeks before his nomination
so Jules A. Viqunesney was urged to
run for mayor. old line politicians,
who knew the tricks of trade" in poll
tics, while Mayor Radabuagh and his
followers lacked there qualities the
talk hiatt was for Mayor Radabaugh
before the election waned when the
votes came in; the strong places were
weakened and while the Radabaugh
forces were fencing on the West
Side, they lost their hold on the east
flank, thus political shrewdness in a
great measure won the day for the
Citizens Ticket.
In his acceptance speech which was
short and to the point, Tuesday night
Mayor-elect Viquesney told the clam
oring crowd that gathered to greet
him in the business centre, that he too
stood for good morals, and clean
town, and that gambling even at
carnivals, would not be tolerated, and
that automobile speed fiends would
have to be on their guard. This
makes the seventh time that Jules A..
Viquesney has been elected mayor Of
Belington, which is evidence of his
efficiency, his far-sightedness and
his leadership.
The vote stands as follows:

Harvey Church Executed In CHI
CagO For Double Murder.
UNCONSCIOUS TO END
Condemned Man Broke Long Silence
When Mother Sees Him in Cell Five
Hours Before Execution.

Chicago. - Strapped to chair
and carried to the gallows in the
same comatose state in which he has
lain for weeks, Harvey Church, slayer
81 two automobile statesmen, paid the
penalty for his crime.
= He retained his apparently uncon-
escious mein~to the end. Last minute
attempts by his attorneys to save him
failed when both Judges Scanlon and
David refused to intercede for the con-
demned man.
After lying on his Jail cot for forty
days without opening his eyes or ut
tering word, Harvey Church broke
his silence five hours before he was
scheduled to be hanged for the murder
ofSBernard Daugherty, formerly of
Philadelphia, and Earl Austus, automo-
bile statesmen, whom he beat to death
to obtain a car so he could SHOW off"
before the people of his home town of
Adams, Wis. A plea rom his mother
caused Church to break his silence.
s'Your father and mother are here,
Harvey" Westbrook, the prison war
den, told the convicted man. "Your
mother begs you to talk to her, and
you have only five hours to live. Will
you talk to them?'
The murderer, who is only 81, and
kose only outward sign of life during
his self imposed period of silence and
hunger strike which caused the au-
thorities to resort to forcibly feeding
him, turned over on one side and num-
bled
"What did you sayy~ asked the war
! den leaning over the prisoner.
"Father and mother Yes" came
back in low but plainly understood
words.
During tie visit Of his parents
Church gave no heed to them. His
mother, almost too weak to talk, was
assisted to his bedside, but he paid no
heed to her pleas he speak to her.
Mrs Church collapsed, falling across
= her sons bed crying, Harvey, my boy,
speak to me- Tell me about it, so they
won't hang you"
There was no response and Mrs.
Church was carried from the cell.
In the meantime the sheriff announc-
ed his plan to carry out the execution
with the helpless Church strapped in
chair.
Governor Small refused to interfere
with the execution, but Churchs at
torneys still maintained hope for an
eleventh-hour reprieve.
Late Thursday night Church moved
Slightly for the first time in many
days. The movement, turning slowly
from his right to the left side, followed
a visit of his sister, in which she plead
ed with her nrother to open his eyes,
recognize her, and make farewell
statement for his parents. Doctors
watched Church intently as his sister
knelt beside him and embraced and
kissed him, for some indication he was
shamming.
Church's slew, even, breathing and
steady pulse beat was unchanged, how
ever, and the doctors reiterated ex-
pressions of opinions the transforma-
ton during his five weeks hunger
strike had resulted in complete loss Of
mental and physical control, and that
his mind probably has ceased to func-
ton. y

Dublin. The crowds which gath
cred for the opening of the cam
palgn In favor OF acceptance Of the
Anglo-Irish treaty were notable not
only because Of their vast proportions
but the high degree of enthusiasm
evinced.
Notwithstanding the rain, which
turned College Green into veritable
forest OF unmbellas, the people stayed
to hear all the speakers.
The orators, in addition to Michael
Collins and Arthur Griffith, included
Joseph McGrath, minister Of labor
William Cosgove. minister for home
affairs. and other leaders in the pro-
visional government. Two platforms
were constantly employed by the
speakers.
With the exception Of minor flag
Incident, when girls and women tore
down Free State tricolor, perfect or
der was maintained by the Republican
police. The resentful crowd jeered
and booed the women for the flag af-
fair, and attempts at interruption by
handful of the same women who re-
manned near the platform, were drown
ed out by popular protest.
Collins, in long speech, defended
the treaty. He asserted that once the
Free State is established, the union of
northeast Ulster with the remainder
Of Ireland Is certain.
He expressed determination to pro-
coed to the establishment of a police
force, despite TIE warnings of Eamonu
de Valera. 1t would rot be political
force to protect any special section,
but would be for the protection Of
every citizen II Ireland, he said.
Griffith made only brief address.
He explained he was suffering from
Influenza, and declared he should have
remained at home. Both Griffith and
Collins pointed to British troops leav-
ing ireland as proof that Ireland had
not been betrayed Abiding to de
valeras admission in July that re-
public was not attainable, Collins said
the opposition were merely engaged
in trying to steal the clothes Of the
adherents Of the Free State.
The position in the northeast, Col
Inns added, was not ideal, but there
were only two alternative issues--co-
ercion or Cancellation. Whichever al
tentative Is adopted must be adopted
intellectually, he held. All are
agreed against coercion, he added, but
the treaty contained forces Of persua-
sion which would bring the northeast
into bankruptcy If it stayed out Of the
Free State
The speaker asked why British
agents were being attacked, and their
arms taken away from them, when
there was no war in progress, unless Z
1t was intended to turn those arms
against the people.
The flag incident occurred at the
platform from which Collins was
speaking A large tricolor was just
about to be hoisted when band of
girls and women, members Of the Re
publican organization, rushed to the
platform, seized the flagstaff and pull
ed down and tore up the flag.
There was a struggle for possession
Of remnants Of It, When q majority
Of the women had been escorted to the
outskirts of the crowd by the Repub-
lican police, another flag was hoisted.
