TWENTY FIVE POSSIBLE
 POSSIBILITIES

We all like to prophecy, and when writer in touch with business and financial centers ventures to make definite pre- dictions, he is likely to have a wide and interested audience. H. C. Forbes, in his Forbes Mag. azine, ,New York) takes column in midsummer issue to set ( 'wn twenty-five important de- lopments which he thinks we are likely to witness, some of them in the next few months. others within a year:
 l. Rather acute scarcity of un- skilled laborers.
 :. A rising tendency in wages. 5. Serious congestion on the railroads, with grave delays in the delivery of goods,
 4. Sharp rises in not a few in dustries.
 , A further advance in cotton and cotton goods
 6. Greater expansion in imports than i'll exports.
 z. Some revival in shipping. 5. Distinctly higher money rates

starting g very shortly.
 9. Less voracious absorption of new security offerings.
 10. Increased activity in stocks and decreased activity in bonds with more or less. bullish ex- citement in stock speculation. II. Scarcity of few classes of merchandise and many instan- ces of clamoring for immediate delivery.
 F. Harvesting of satisfactory crops and freer buying through out the grain growing states, with somewhat improved condit- ions also in the South.
 13. Cheaper coal.
 14. Lowering of rents. u 15. November election results which will spur the Republican lawmakers to conduct them selves in more businessli ke fash ion.
 16. Recognition of Mexico. 17. Modification of Ireland. Is. An upheaval in Germany, pre- cipitated by the hardships m- posed upon the working classes by the collapse of the purchas- ing power of the mark.
 19. Further abandonment of Soy- jet policies in Russia.
 20. Drastic modification or can cellation of Europe's indebted. ness to Britain.

LAW LETS THEM GET AWAY

LAW LETS THEM GET AWAY
 When scores of persons were killed orinjured in the Knicker. booker movie house at Washing ton last winter by it's collapse, due to faulty construction, all Washington arose and demanded to know who was responsible.t
 It was found out who was re- sponsible. Then the courts got busy and now the indict- ment is quashed on technical ities.
 f5>ei s AUTO STEALING LEADING
 Autos worth one hundred mil lion dollars were stolen in 1921. The check-up has just been com pleted. The motor thief has e. clipsed the bank robber and the housebreaker. The leading crime in America today is autss stealing which is a reminder of What happened to a horse thief years ago in the West when horse stealing was the leading crime. Itmay come to that again.

DEMOCRATIC LEADERS poN'rs.

n a meeting Of the Democratic senatorial cam
( paign committee held in Washington two
"donts" were included In the instructions given
the campaign speakers and they were emphatical-
ly admonshed against
First. Mentioning the League of Nations as an
ISSUE
Second. Bringing up the question Of war de3t
cancellation.
1t would seem that at last even some leaders OF
the Democratic party are beginning 10 see little
Of the light that has been apparent to everybody
else for sometime. The reason given for request
ing Democratic orators not to mention the League
Of Nations. is that II is dead issue. 1t has been
dead issue since the election of President Hard
Ing when the American people buried it under the
overwhelming majority of seven million votes. 1t
has taken the Democratic party two years 10
realize that the League OF Nations issue was dead
and there still some Democrats like tromer Gov
ernor Cox who do not seem to know it yet
The Democrats also seem to realize that the pro.
position to cancel the debts OF foreign countries
for money loaned them during the war is very
unpopular and will meet with no favor by the
American voter.
The Democrats will therefore have to fall back
on domestic issues for campaign material and they
will be very hard to find. The charge OF extra
vagance cannot be made against the Harding ad.
ministration for the reason that It has reduced
government expenditures by billion dollars a
year, so the Democrats will probably be compelled
to take up the old question Of the tariff. On this
issue the Republican party is always willing to do
battle and history shows that when the tariff was
an issue the Democratic party was always defeat
ed, and so It will be In November

CAPTAIN JOHN GORDON sMYrH.

HE last earthly honorS were paid yesterday to
the body Of the late Capt John Gordon
smyth, tiroless worker for the advancement Of
his fellow man and an important factor in the ds-
velopment OF the Kentucky interests of the Goa
solldation Coal Co.
Those who paused in the busy day TO drop tear
on the bier Of the wel-known mining engineer y
who submitted to memorys dictum and retraced
in their minds eye the sturdy, consistent, unfal-
terins striving for better conditions in the mining
industry found themselves again paying silent
homage to master builder in his chosen field WHO
saw clearly and far and who brushed aside or
overcome all obstacles
John Gordon smyth was man Of great fore
sight and keen insight, but also of deep feeling
who tied closely to his friends and acquaintance,
as loyal to the miner as to brother operator. He
had an abundance Of caution and precaution, based
upon foundation Of conservative optimism as
pointed out by the Ashland (Ky) Daily 1nde-
pendent in the editorial reprinted in The West
virsinian yesterday
In the passing Of Captain smyth the Console
dalton Coal Co. loses man whom 1t does we'll to
honor Kentucky friend to whom 1t owes much
of the credit for its position in the coal mining
industry.
1t was such man whose body was laid away
here yesterday. His physical work is done. but
his spirit will long hover over the Consolidation
Coal Co. in watchtul and steadyins impulse as a
result of the achievements of his life; achieve
ments that are an inspiration.

They stretch one dollar into two.
And even whom the money fails
The work goes on. Along the

To bring the light. to dissIpate

With simple service as the creed,
The. dreams transmitted to the

Fearless, enlightened, strong and

Such is the future that they seek
