at 81, 430, 100000.
To let foreign CO nmerce, with
low production costs caused main
~ by very low wage scale, en-
ter Our County tax-fee would pl-
ay havoc with American indust. :
les and agricultural crops. Even
undetermined American citizens
in moderate circumstances, wou-
Id not buy American products if
they could purchase imported on
cs of the same quality at much
lower price. 1t is the desire oec our
governn en- to see that fair deal
is given both foreign and Amer
lean industries, and it has we'll ST.
cceeded.
American wages are the Zig. :.
est in the world today and they
must be protected, were the tar
riff abolished, the American wor-
king man could unquestionably
buy a number of commodities at
decreased prices, including farm
products. But the American ma
nufacturer, to meet cheaper for
eign competition, would have to
cut costs, and wages would drop
accordingly.
The tariff has not hurt our fc-
reign trade as was amply proved
when over four billion dell RS VIZ :
tn of goods were imported. VIII

Commissioner Hall pointed
out that with this large progr-
am, in addition to many minor
operations throughout the
State, the industrial output for
1928 would easily reach around
eight hundred million dollars.
The total value of industrial out
put for the State for 1926 was
nlased at S667, $50, 437.O0.
Figured from this basis, with
the contemplated increases in
dicated above, Commissioners
Hall is convinced that by 1880
Virginia will have entered the
billion dollar industrial class as
predicted by Governor Byrd.

VIRGINIA INDUSTRY
(By Carter Wormeley)


Richmond, Va, Jan. Z The
remarkable industrial develop
ment of Virginia, referred to by

Program of Progress recently
released to the press, is destin-
ed to continue with increased
momentum in the mediate fut-
ure, according to a survey just
completed by the State Depar-
ment of Labor and Industry.
Commissioner of Labor, John
Hopkins Hall, Jr., in comment
ing on same pointed out that
while the increase in industrial
output in the last ten years was
approximately 50per cent or 5
percent, and that for the year
1926 alone the increase was 10
percen, and that forthe year of
1927 the industrial output wou-
Id show an increase of at least
15 percent over the previous
year.

RITTER'S CAMP

(By Frank Monroe Beverley
Oh, sing me a song OF the
Ritter camp,
Adown the Cumberland way,
Where the small trees sport a
pleasing paint,
And the little town looks gay.
A hundred men with the wood
mans craft
Make the forest ring,
With axes, saws, and lever hook
frove that timber is King.
The table fares good enough
for the gods,
The viands are tasty and neat
And none of their fare need
lever complain,
And there is always enough
to eat
tEM "
The beds are not made of elder
down,
But they give the sleeper
his rest,
The tired man who sleeps in the
Ritter bed
Is always thankful and blest.
Now, Muse, you have sung me

Adown the Cumberland way,
Where the small trees sport a
pleasing paint,
And the little town looks gay.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Oct. L. On the action of the Indiana su- preme court, which has announced it soon will give a decision in D. 2. Stephenson's appeal from a murder verdict, rests the fate of the former Ku Klux Klan leader and notorious figure in the h. diana political upheaval of the last three years.
 The former grand dragon of the klan in Indiana is serving a life sentence for the murder of Miss Madge Oberholtzer.
 Virtually unknown in 1923, Ste- phenson became interested in the klan and within two years he had risen to the top of that organiza- ton in Indiana, had amassed for tune of $1,000,000 and was an ad- mitted political power in the state. He was reputed to have the power to make or break those aspiring to political office. and he was said to have played the role of dictator over the Indiana legislature of 1925 Then came his sudden fall.
 Shortly after ! disagreement with Hiram w. Evans, imperial wizard of the klan, and attempts ,..., 4.. further Stephens political power,

 In a dying statement, the girl declared Stephenson had induced her to go to his mansion at Iry- ington, a suburb, and later forced her to accompany him on a train to Hammond. She asserted she was attacked while on the train

FOREST SERVICE GETS
 $8,976 OF TRAIL FUNDS

The sum of $S.97670 has been allotted by the Federal treasury to the Alaska district, U. s. Forest Service for trail construction, it was announced today by Assistant District Forester M. l.. Merritt. This is 10 per cent of the net receipts from timber sales madS from national forest lands in the Territory during the last fiscal year.
 Undor the present law, 10 per cent of these receipts go to the local Forest Service for trail work. An additional 25 per cent is set aside for Alaska schools and roads and trails, and is remitted by the Federal treasury to the Ter ritorial treasury.

 Stephenson was indicted by the Marion county grand jury and after a lengthy trial, was sentenced in the state prison.
 The prosecution based its case on the contention that an infee- tion in decorations on the body of Miss Oberholtzer. alleged to have been inflicted by Stephen son. contributed to her death.
 For a few months after his con- viction little was heard of Ste phenson. Then, suddenly the front pages of newspapers through ont the country carried stories of letters. written by Stephenson and smuggled from prison, in which he said he could expose a mass of corruption" in Indiana politics.
 Finally the Marion county grand jury took cognizance of the charg es and in time indictments were returned against John l.. Duyall, mayor of Indianapolis, and other officials.
 During all this time, Stephenson, through his attorneys, was making use of every legal device to ob- tain freedom. Writs and petitions were filed every few weeks. The main prop of his legal structure, however, was an appeal from the conviction for murder.
