LLOYD GEORGE FACES BIG CRISIS Problem Ahead of Premier Has Three Sharp Angles. Eesult May Be That Poland Will Be Unaided. U. S. WILL KEEP HANDS OFF- Millerand Plans to GiTe Every j Aid to Anti-Reds. Recognition of Anlis Was Lloyd George's Only Club. Britain and France have split on the Question of how to combat Russian Bolshevism. The- British today were attempting to close the breach. A note was re ceived at the French foreign office in which Britain declared the two gov ernments should continue to closely co-operate while their present differ ences are adjusted. The schism in allied diplomatic unity was caused by France extending rec ognition to General Wrangel, anti-Bolshevik leader in the Crimea, and by Britain advising the Poles to accept the Bolshevik peace terms, according to dispatches. Premier Lloyd George at first re fused to credit the report that France had recognized Wrangel without Brit ish consent. When Premier Millerand heard Lloyd George had advised the Poles to accept the Bolshevik terms he told the cabinet it was a violation of the Hythe agreement under which France and Great Britain were to act in con cert in the Russian crisis. The sudden disappearance .of French-British liaison came as a sur prise to many diplomats. Washing ton officials expressed fear that" France and Britain would go it alone hereafter, which would weaken the western barrier against spread of Bol shevism. The official Washington attitude evidently was "hands off" for the pres ent until it was seen whether the dif ferences could be patched up.

Cau least, to the increase In freight rates, authorized by the interstate commerce commission recently, to go into effect August 26. The words "freight rate increase" probably will be stressed in the merchant's dissertation on that ever-present and intangible subject, "overhead.' But R. G. Merrick, general freight agent of the Santa Fe, comes aiont; with some information, in a statement issued by him today, that will enlight en the baying public as to just how much effect this advance in freight urates will have on clothing and food sold in Topeka. Merrick lists twenty five commodities, showing the actual results in cents of the freight rate hike. One Cent on Shoes. The large sum of one cent will be added to the cost of shipping a pair of shoes a commodity that is pre dicted to soar this fall from St. Louis and 2.6 cents for hauling the same pair of shoes from Boston. An ad vance of 2.2 cents in the cost of ship ping men's suits from Chicago and 4.3 cents from New York will result, ac cording to Merrick's figures. It will cost the merchant 1 3 cents more to get a ladieo" suit from Chicago and 2.6 cents from New York. Food Advance Low. Increases In costs of shipping food commodities will be slight, Merrick points our. They range- from four hundredths of a cent on a pound of bacon or ham shipped here from Kan sas City or St. Louis to 9.5 cents on a 100-pound sack of flour from Min neapolis. Minn. Most of the increases are fractions of a cent, however. The freight rate increase will hit wheat shipped from Topeka to the extent of 2.1 cents to Kansas City and 5.4 cents to Chicago; hay, 60 cents per ton to Kansas City. It will cost 3.5 cents more per hun- Take a Ride in a nscoe I flft 1 p &r dred to ship cattle from Topeka to Kansas City and 13 cents more from here to Chicago; hogs 5 cents more per hundred from Topeka to Kansas City and 13 cents rrtore to Chicago.

In State Politics COUNTS HIS EGGS Davis Doesn't Wait for Late Returns to Hatch. Celebration Picnic'Tlanned Be fore Ballots Are In. EVANS STILL HAS CHANGE But Thompson Has "ear Safe Lead of 1,550. Presidential Elector Count Swamps State's Office. Martin Miller of Fort Scott, man ager of Jonathan M. Davis's primary campaign for the Democratic guber natorial nomination, is completing plans fr a bis non-political congrat ulatory picnic that will be held at the Little Osage Stock. Farm, Davis's coun try place near Bronson, next Tuesday. There will be a basket picnic lunch, athletic contests and Miller says he will have bands on hand from every town in southeast Kansas. Davis men and other prominent Democrats from all over the state are expected to at tend. While the official count of the pri mary returns, with about half of the counties included, shows that Davis Is leading O. T. Wood by only 848 votes, it is considered very improbable that Wood has a chance to nose out -ahead of the Bronson Bourbon leader. In the counties where the biggest votes were polled the returns are included in the tabulations, and it would be necessary for Wood to make practical ly a clean sweep in the other counties for him to beat Davis. Thompson in Tjead. The same situation exists in the He publican contest for state treasurer between Thompson and Evans that ex ists in the Davis-Wood race. Returns from eighty-seven counties give Thompson a lead of 1,550, and it would not be impossible for Kvans to over take this but it is considered very improbable that he will do so. Evans has been getting a number of the smaller counties that were slow about sending in returns, hut, as in the Davis-Wood contest, all of the big coun ties have been counted. The ambitions of too many Republi cans to win the honor of being presi dential electors is causing much addi tional work in tabulating the returns and preparing them for the state can vassing board, and It will push the force in the office of L. J. Fettijohn, secrciry of state, to finish the work beffJK the date when the state can vassing board is to meet. There were twelve candidates for presidential elec tors on the Republican ballot, with only ten to be chosen, and this is add ing greatly to the labor of compiling totals. However, an effort is being made to complete the work by next Monday night. HOW ABOUT TOMORROW Horn ford's Acid Fhoanhata will keen you up and doinjr makes an In vigorating tonic drink. At drugginta.

Charles McCarty confessed today to George -Frost, chief of detectives, that he was an escaped convict from the Colorado state prison. McCarty ex pressed a desire to return to the Colorado prison rather than face a burglary prosecution in the Shawnee county court and possibly receive a sentence to the Kansas state prison. I was on a road gang with some other prisoners two years ago and just walked away," McCarty said. McCarty was arraigned in the court of Topeka today on a charge of steal ing money and jewelry from a num ber of roomers at the Hotel Thorne, He pleaded not guilty. He was cap tured by Ietectives Frost, Coberly and Bundy as he was walking away from the hotel, Tuesday. About an hour before his capture a woman living at 213 Fast Seventh street found a man hiding in a closet. While she was calling the police the man escaped. The officers were looking for this man when they saw McCarty, who answered the descrip tion, on Holliday street. McCarty was positively identified by the woman as the man she found in the closet. Several hours later th roomers at the Hotel Thorne discovered they had been robbed. The articles found in McCartv's Dockets were the same ar ticles stolen from the hotel, the police say. A letter from A. J. Renoe, head of the bureau of identification at the federal prison, Leavenworth, states that McCarty has served time in Colo rado and Nebraska prisons. lightning Causes $15,000 Ixmss.

Frederic J. ilaskin, Director, Washing ton, K. C. Lloyd George says Poland was not justified in her invasion of Kussia. If he had let Poland know that this was his view in the beginning probably there would have been no invasion. His attempt to place the entire blame on the Poles will not deceive the rest of the world. It was the intention of the allies to make a catspaw of Po land and that Is all there is to it. Senator Harding is reported to have hopes of breaking the "solid south" this year. If he and Governor Cox can succeed in inducing the Tennessee legislature to ratify the suffrage amendment his hopes may be real ized. Southern Democrats feel fctrongly on the suffrage question. They may take it into their heads to resent the enforcement upon them of equal suffrage. While Harding and Cox may be held equally responsible. President Wilson started the thing and there is a Democrat majority in the Tennessee legislature. "or several months the newspapers and periodicals of this country have heen hammering away at extravagance in story, editorial and cartoon. They have warned against useless spending. The spendthrift has been ridiculed, condemned and pleaded with, but there was no noticeable effect upon the reckless buying of unnecessary or high priced goods. A few weeks ago in numerous cities a number of the leading merchants cut off some of their profits. As soon as they marked poods down the buying stopped and a marked decline in the demand for luxuries is reported. This is simply one more example of the old rule that people will not buy on a falling mar ket. The causes which have brought shout the existing situation regarding the peace treaty are that President Wilson 'assumed to be the representa tive of American thought on the sub ject, while a small group of senators took a similar position as regarded themselves. The result is that there is no treaty, no peace and no League of Nations that is worth anything to the world. A negro plasterer in a southern town w ho is making $S a day wrttes to the Manufacturers' Record that the union has called a strike, and that while he is entirely satisfied and does not want to strike, he will have to do so, be cause tire officials have ordered a strike. On this circumstance the Rec ord comments as follows: "Here is mental and physical slavery. This man, a good, honest workingman, get ting large wages, 'wants to keep on working, but is being forced into idle ness by the command of walking del egates or officers whose hold on office depends upon stirring up strife." The Record appears to overlook the fact that but for the union this plasterer probably would not be receiving JS a day and that corequently he owes a certain degree of fealty to the organ ization. It is astonishing how the "He kept us out of war" slogan got by with the voters in 1916, when everybody knows that It is congress that keeps us out of war and gets us into war. President MeKinley tried hard to keep us out of war with Spain, but congress, spurred on by public senti ment as voiced in the newspapers, forced the nation into the fight. An autoist has made a new record for a trip from New York to Los An geles by motor car. He must have been desirous of an experience with earthquakes. The railway labor board has handed out a wage increase amounting to $30,000,000 a year to the employes of the American Express company. The way the board distributes other peo ple'a money makes congress and state legislatures look like pikers. HOW THE IiEAGUE WORKS. Thai need of the League of Nations for the presence of the United States in its councils is made apparent by the Russo-Polish situation. If we had joined the league at its inception prob ably the war now going on could have been prevented. An influence such as this country might exert is needed to pry Europe loose from its old style diplomacy. Lord Grey has Just issued a state ment which serves to clarify the pub lic mind as to the present status of the League of Nations in world affairs, particularly in its relation to the Polish-Russian emergency. "The pres ent trouble," says the statesman, "comes from the league's having been disregarded by those who Joined it." He refers to the failure of the league to take steps to prevent Poland from conducting an invasion of Russia, and concludes that because nothing was done at that time the league should now refrain from compelling Russia to keep out of Poland. To Lord Grey's mind it would make of the league an instrument for war if steps were now taken to aid Poland, after having failed to use the league as an instru ment for peace in restraining Poland. Of course, as Lord Grey says, Po land should have been kept out of Russia, but Article X of the cove nant says the league shall interfere only when the territory of one of its members is invaded. Russia is not a member, hence, presumably, its terri tory is open to aggression from any other nation so far as the league is concerned. Poland, on the other hand, is a member. The league, therefore, is bound to rush to its assistance the mo ment it is threatened. Under the strict application of the provisions of the covenant Poland can invade Rus sia at will, but Russia can never re taliate In kind on Poland. It is that manifest perversion of the announced principles behind thi league idea that has aroused Lord Grey. "This perversion of the league," says he, "unless repudiated, will impair its future usefulness and imperil its very existence." Greece also Is invading Turkey with the full sanction of the league, but there would be a loud call to the league for assistance if Turkey were more successful and her armies were marching upon Greek soilas The rea son is that Greece is a member and Turkey is not. A STRIKE THAT FAILED. The Denver street car strike is end ed. the cars are running again, but are not manned by the strikers. The latter have asked for their old jobs without any attempt to dictate condi tions of employment. According to the Rocky Mountain News: The strike was lost the moment It was called. The great public would not endure It. Public sentiment was unalterably opposed to it. The strik ers were witnout justification. Legal ly, morally and economically they were at fault. They had broken an agreement; they were without any real grievance and were receiving good wages. Without thought of the in jury they were doing to a whole com munity, they left the public high and dry. They ignored their relationship to the public as employes of a public utility corporation bound by franchise contract to serve the public and keep Its cars going. In the history of the strike and In its results the News sees a lesson which it thinks should be taken to heart by labor unions elsewhere. It says further: What has taken place ought to etch into the heart of organized labor that before it goes on strike to the extent of injuring a whole city or a large number of people it must be certain to have a good case, that it is using the strike weapon as a very last resoit to obtain justice and that the public is fully acquainted with the dispute. If the men's cause is Just and makes a right appeal to public sentiment, the men have nothing to fear; indeed the leverage of public sentiment is recog nized as so all-powerful in labor dis putes affecting the public that the em ployer will hesitate a long while he fore he challenges it and permits his employes to secure public sentiment. It must have been driven home to the ill-advised workmen that where the people have a direct stake In a quar rel, such as the transportation strike, they reach a quick decision for them selves, are impatient with quibbles and intuitively place the blame where it belongs. In reaching a verdict where they are the greatest sufferers, the people cannot be bothered with extra neous matter. They Insist upon imme diate resumption. Another basic truth must have been thrust home to all but the most obtuse in the ranks of decent labor and of the alien Bolshevism that insisted upon obtruding its doctrines in the critical hours of the strike, namely, that there must be no violence practiced in labor disputes, no appeal to brute force, no attempt at terrorism. It It be claimed that there can be no cessation of labor in a great iltility without violence and inconvenience, then the answer must be that there shall be no strike, that the great third party shall take a hand before it reaches the dangerous stage. The innocent more than the guilty suffered from violence the last few days. Strike leaders Rnd their follow ing insist that they cautioned against violence -and the lists of dead and in jured may prove that they had no part in the bloodshed, but after all has been urged in defense, the people felt that the calling of the unwarranted strike was the first cause for rioting that brought death and injury, and to end these things there must be an end of the strike. The luckiest presidential candidate in the whole lot is Eugene V. Debs. Uncle Sam pays all his campaign ex penses, even to board and lodging. The allies appear to have taken the position that Russia can go as far as she likes In Poland, but Germany must not crook a finger In that direction. The latter is in a position to be easily bluffed. The Fort Scott Tribune (Dem.) has come out with severe criticism of its party's candidate for the presidency. Its principal Indictment of Mr. Cox is that he wants votes. JUST A GIRL By JANEPHELPS A PROPOSAL. CHAPTER 64. "Zena I may call you that? Then, without waiting for an answer: "I may be presumptuous, but Zena I love you! I am poor, but I have just had my salary raised. I could not have had the courage to tell you otherwise, and Zena, will you marry me?' Harold Moore waited for my answer. I had consented once again to spend Sunday afternoon with him. We were sitting on the same bench where we had rested on that first Sunday I had gone out with him. In spite of Mary's warnings. I was surprised and a bit shocked. I knew I had no love for Harold Moore, but perhaps he had considered my friendly manner, my consenting to go out with him occa sionally, encouragement. "No, Mr. Moore, I cannot marry you," I said in a stilted manner, un like my usual style. "I would not marry a man I did not love. It wouldn't be fair to him nor to me," my thoughts leaping to Kenneth Law rence. "i;ut Zena, I love you so dearly I think 1 could make you love me if you would trust me." "No, 1 cannot marry you. I'm sor ry," I added, "sorry if 1 have done any thing to make you think I cared. I have not meant to. I have enjoyed your friendship but I cannot marry you." "You have done nothing with which you should reproach yourself. I have cared so much that I have perhaps magnified your kindness to me. You are sure you cannot care ever V "Quite sure." If I was a bit piqued that he took my refusal so calmly, I never let him suspect it. I was very young, a bit romantic and sentimental in spite of all I had gone thru. He made no pro test, simply changed the subject, and did not refer to it again, ev.-n when he fald good-night at the door of the boarding hourse. "Something's happened. AVhat is it?" Mary asked when I went in. "How do you know anything has happened "l'ou have a guilty look. Harold ask you to mary him?" "cs." "YouH believe me now when I tell you things, won't you? I knew he would do it. Did he tell you how he was going to keep you?" "He has been given an advance." "Then you are going to marry him?" Her eyes wide. "No, I am not going to marry him," I mimicked her tone. "Poor fellow! I wonder if he will start tipping you again." "Don't be ridiculous, Mary. I al most feel as if I should give up my job." "It's you who is ridiculous. Why should you starve just because a fel low asks you to4 marry him?" I had no need to be anxious about my position, about being embarrassed. Harold came very seldom, always spoke pleasantly, .and occasionally left a flower beside my plate. He never tipped me again, and gradually ceased coming altogether. He had been very generous, very -tactful, and I had felt little or no embarrassment over the affair. My thoughts of him were al ways kindly ones because of this. Sometimes I wondered if anyone would ever again ask me to marry them, if I had refused the only chance I would have. Harold had been the only true gentleman I had talked with since I left home after dad died. I sometimes wondered that poor work ing girls kept as good as niPSi of them do. Often, as in my case, it is impossi ble for them to meet either young men or young women who are capable o? being of he4p to them. And :Al work and no play is a hard life for a young girl or boy. in my case, my early life, my family, kept coarse, com mon pleasures from appealing to me. But there are man poor girls who have had no early advantages, many who have little or no education save that of the shop and streets. Tet they keep themselves wholesomely good, and often resist temptation that would give them comfort and east from hard work. Such a girl was Mary Murphy, and t 'considered myself fortunate to have her for a friend. Aside from the com panionship which I enjoyed, she stood between me and many unpleasant nesses, -n buffer for me in many ways. Had it not been for her I could not have endured my life at times.

"It's a wonderful garden," remarked Professor Raynes. "There are fifty five varieties of roses-and yet none of my friends will enter It after dark." The women drew closer together while the men grinned skeptically at their host. "Haunted, you say?" asked Benton. "In a way hesitated the profes sor. "What way?" asked a chorus of voices. "It is mostly heavy perfume and a queer cold wind sometimes the sight of a greenish gray shadow flitting away under the locust grove." They glanced toward the gorgeous rose garden and beyond to the tall grove of young locust trees. Beyond the grove was a rail fence and glimpses of tumble-down chimneys. "Is that a farmhouse?" asked Ben ton inquisitively. "Yes belongs to Cherry Faben--she teaches school in the city,' ex plained Professor Raynes stiffly, and he changed the subject. "I shall walk in the rose garden to night." averred Cynthia -Parker to Madge Benton. "Walt for me I shall go, too. Let us go up to bed and then when all lights are out we can come down and frolic with the ghost in the garden:" The moon was riding high in the heaven that night, and the rose gar den took on weird coloring under the magic rays. The juckrvses were dull blotches of color against the foliage and thbride roaes were pale and wan as if waiting for ghostly bride fingers to pluck them; the pink roses were faintly tinted and the whole .garden was swooning with fragrance. "It is beautiful -and so strange." whispered Cynthia, as she clung fkher companion's hand. "I am almost afraid, Madge:" "Hark! What is that?" Madge dragged her down behind the hedge that bordered the garden. The twelve laint strokes of the clock on the dis tant church tower sounded thru the night, shivering the silence with tin kling solemnity. "Midnight," shivered Cynthia. "Do let us go back I hate rose gardens:" "Wait some one is coming," cau tioned the other, and so they waited with frightened hearts and icy hands. "Some one is coming from the other direction I wish I could see!" Slowly she raised herself until she could stand erect behind a tall bush of Immense white blossoms, thon she dragged Cynthia to her feet. "Look:" The girlish faces pressed close to the roses grew pale with the tragedy of what they saw. A woman's tall form, thin almost to Invisibility in that uncertain light, clad in soft gray, moved among the rosea with a beauti ful, cold face; passed slowly from bush to hush, garnering the faded, bursting roses. She seemed to know when to touch them for they would fall into her outspread hands. She buried her proud cold face among the sweet petals and then dropped them into a deep basket hung from her arm. As she went from bush to bush, she murmured little snatches of song -old-fashioned melodies that the girls had laughed at when they heard them else where, but tonight they wept as they listened. "Such a poor sad ghost." sobbed Cynthia. As if the whispering reached her ears, the ghost turned swiftly and glided rather than walked out of the garden and vanished beyond the lo cust grove. "We must tell Profesor Raynes," whispered Madge. "Let us wait another night," urged Cynthia, and Madge consented. The next day they were driving thru the village when they saw the tall form of the rose garden ghost. She was just leaving the woman's exchange and her gray gown disappeared around a corner as their motor stopped at the door. "Let us go Inside," said Cynthia. They examined the delicate fancy work, the home-made candies, and finally Madge plucked her compan ion's arm. "Look." she whispered. In the showcase was a heap of dainty net bags filled with dried rose petals, tied with rose-colored ribbons and deli cately embroidered. "Miss Nash's rose sachets." ex plained the attendant. "They are de llghtfu'lv fragrant her roses must be very fine here are lavender ones, too!" The girts bought some sachets and went back to Rose Court. "We must tell Professor Raynes," said Cynthia that evening. "She is trespassing, of course but the poor soul may need the rose petals I am sure he would not care, for rose petals bring her a living anyway." Professor Raynes listened to their story with incredulity. They walked down to the rose garden. "Look, there is hardly a fallen petal." I have noticed that I thought it was Henry's diligence and raised his wages I told him to let the petals lie I liked to see them." "But Miss Nash began Madge, when the professor clutched her arm. "Miss Nash Rose Nash?" he stam mered. "I must wait and see her I thought she had gone away forever, years ago she used to board with Miss Cherry His head dropped into his hands "Rose my queen of all thoroses," he whispered. The girls left him alone dreaming among his roses, but that night he was very silent at dinner and late in the evening he vanished and did not re turn. "We must go to the garden." cried Cynthia, and they planned to meet at midnight. The garden was alight un der the moon and two forms moved along the roses. Beautiful Rose Nash, plucking half-blown buds to wear on her breast and one for the professor's buttonhole. "Bride roses, dearest." he was say ing tenderly. "Always bride for you to make up for lost time. Tomor row a wedding here among the roses?" "She said "yes.' murmured Madge, as the two girls crept away, dazed by the wonderful love story that had been revealed before their eyes. (Copyright. 1020, by the McCIur Newi ptper Syndicate.) ON SECOND THOUGHT BT J AT E. HOUSE, (from Philadelphia Public Ledgtr.) We approach the day's work in fret ful mood. We have been reading the newspapers and the periodicals. We ctnfess that some of the brethren of the editorial tripod irk us sore. They not only give us pause, they give us pain. It seems to be the disposition of the "highbrow" element of the edi torial guild to make satiric jest of tlie alleged fact that both Mr. Harding and Oovernor Cox are political un knowns and that they were lifted from obscurity by their respective parties. Our usually amiable if not particularly intriguing contemporary. Life, whirh nearly always has a flat O string, stresses that point in a recent issue. The objective of our laboring "high brow" brothers seems to be that both the Republicans and the Democrats should have a widely known and justly famous man for the presidential nomi nation. The implication is that neither Mr. Harding nor Governor Cox is big enough for the job. As we have noted, that sort of flapdoodle irks us sore. We prickle as one afflicted with a rash whenever we read it. Roughly speaking, the justly famous and most widely known citizens of this country are W. J. Brayn, "Babe" Ruth, Eugene V. Debs, Douglas Fair hanks. Senator Hi-ram Johnson. Jack Dempsey, William Randolph Hearst. Samuel Oompers, Henry Ford, Ar Jol son, Harold Bell Wright, Charlie Chaplin and Smith Brothers. We do not pretend that this is a complete list of the widely known and justly famous. Other names might be added. As an instance, Emma Ooldman would he eligible to entry, were she a "Citizen of this country. But. for reasons that are well known and to which no refer ence need be made. Kmma no longer is a resident of the United States. In a general way, however, the list set down, fixes the meter and bounds of fame and prominence in this country and serves the purpose for which it is intended; We are curious, and, we think. Justifiably to, as to which two of these famous men the "highbrow" element of the editorial guild would have picked for a the nominations. Meanwhile, we shall Consider their claims to such nominations without prejudice and withoutheat. Mr. Bryan has run for president three times and has been defeated in each instance. It seems impossible to elect Mr. BryanWe doubt that either partv should be criticised for failing to tender him a fourth nomination. The same objections hold against Mr. Debs, who is now entering upon his fifth campaign for the presidency with victory as remote as it was twentv years ago. Samuel Gompers has been president a good deal of the time for the past eight years and is barred by the third term precedent. Mr. Wright has just got his divorce and is In no position to run for office. The un written law in this country is that no gentleman Fhall run for an office of major significance within six months of the date on which his decree is granted. Senator Hi-ram Johnson failed to gather a sufficient number of delegates and we doubt that he would be more acceptable to the "highbrow" members of the editorial guild than Mr. Harding or Governor Cox. It i3 conceded Mr. Hearst could get the "simp" vote ana that the "simp" vote: provided it were cast solidly, would elect the president. But we doubt either of the two great parties should be maligned, even by implication, for declining to nominate Mr. Hearst. Mr. Jolson is Ineligible by reason of the fact that he is not yet thirty-five years of age. Mr. Dempsey Is bcrred by the same accident of birth.. "Babe" Ruth is under contract to the New "York Americans and has no chance ot- secur ing his release. A presidential cam paign, too. would interfere with his contract with the motion picture pro ducers and would deprive the people of the great privilege of observing him in histrionic roles. Knowing the temper of the people, neither party dared nominate the "Babe." That narrows the field to Mr. Ford, Mr. Chaplin. Mr. Fairbanks and Smith Brothers. Smith Brothers probably would make a good president. They, run a fine restaurant In Poughkeepsie. We had luncheon there one day not long since. We have never eaten bet ter raspberry pie. The crust was a little soggy, but the filling was as nectar. But the idea of nominating for president men who are capable of running a good restaurant will strike every clear thinking American as pre posterous and uncalled for. Anybody can be president That has been proven. Running a good restaurant requires both adaptability and unusual mental equipment. There are various ways of becom ing widely k.iown and justly famous. PrWbably the most popular way is for the gentleman who seeks fame and fortune to pretend he is going to do something for the people. Of course, nobody ever does anything for the people. The proposed feat is impos sible of accomplishment. If the peo ple can't do it themselves. It can't be done. But it is one of the best of the old "stalls" and always enlists a fol lowing. Another way of becoming widely known and Justly famous is by talking folly. No man achieves much distinction by talking sense, but if he can obtain his own consent to talk folly he will attract attention and is likely to become famous. There are many other routes to prominence and leadership. Throwing a custard pie. singing risque songs, making the cheaper motor car or hitting a home run at the crucial moment all bring fame to the Individual performer. As an American cltiien, we are glad that neither Mr. Harding nor Governor Cox has any such exploits to his credit. Being a Republican, we likely shall vote for Mr. Harding. The Republi can party seems a bit more capable in efficiently administering government. The Democrats go into the campaign handicapped by an administration which "blew up" at a critical moment. We lean to Mr. Harding. But the spectacle of two candidates for presi den, both o whom came up thru the dirt to positions of eminence, and both of whom trace back thru generation after generation of clean living, clean thinking Americans thrills us. It stirs our pride of race to know that both of the great parties have presented can didate upon whose records there is no taint of folly nor stain of demagogue ry. And the assumption that either is obscure or unknown irks us sore. In this country the sentence for be ing rich is that one must live in a house that looks like a hospital or a public library.

SPLIT IN (Continued frou I'age One.) called for tomorrow1 to make final plans for the general strike to be called if the government tries to fight the Bolsheviki. Lloyd George today was confronted with no less than three crises on which the peace of Kurope may de pend. They were: 1. The French-British diplomatic misunderstanding growing out of ranee's recognition of Wrangel. 2. The threatened general strike in Britain if the government tries to make war on Russia. Lnhorltes to day were demanding that Lloyd George reveal Russian peace terms. S. The parley of Polish and Bolshe vik delegates at Minsk. Lloyd George must decide whether the Reds mani fest insincerity in this conference, and if so what shall be done about it. A Warsaw dispatch today said the Polish delegates-to the Minsk armi stice and peace conference started last night and that Moscow had" been so advised. M. Kameneff. Bolshevik rep resentative here informed the British government that Russia would recog nize Poland's liberty, integrity and in dependence. x BritiMi Send N'ote to Paris. Paris, Aug. 12. Great ETltain has communicated with officials of France in regard to the differences between the two governments, it develops from a statement made hv the aemi-nffilal Havas agency today. The statement says: The British charge d'affaires this morning brought to the general secre tary of the ministry of foreign affairs a communication from the British government from the conversation en gaged in between the charge and M. Paleologue (Maurice Paleologue. gen eral secretary of the Krence foreign office.) It developed that both govern ments are examining in the most friendly spirit the divergencies in views which have occurred between hem, but which will not prevent them from continuing their friendly collab oration. Premier Millerand of France has informed the cabinet that Premier Lloyd George's message asking Poland to accent the Bolshevik n'rreemerf reached by the two premiers at their recent conrerence at Hythe. it was admitted today in official circles. The French recognition of General Wrangel's regime as the de facto gov ernment of southern Russia followed the cabinet meeting at which Mil lerand made this assertion. Recognition of Wrangel's anti-Bolshevik government was accorded with out consulting Britain which, it is un derstood, would oppose such a step at1his time. 0 Lloyd George started It. The diplomatic misunderstanding between France aad Britain had Its start, it was learned, when Lloyd George told the house of commons he .blamed Poland for starting the war 'with RllcQfil I'! l-M.H MaimAH .hp started on advice of France. This caused irritation m French official quarters. It was followed by word that Lloyd George had advised the Poles to accept the Reds' terms. A meeting of the French cabinet was called. Premier Millerand. ac cording to Information obtained from peace terms was a violation of the officials, read the ministers the text of the agreement reached with Lloyd George at Hythe covering united al lied action in the Rusrlan-Polish crisis and then assorted that Lloyd George's message advisin;? Poland to accept the terms constituted a viola-: tion of the agreement. Officia.1 announcement by French foreign office that Wrangel was recognized followed shortly there after. According to advices from England, this came as a great surprise, to Lloyd George who informed the house of commons that a step had been taken without consulting him. Will Aid General Wrangel. The Echo De Paris announced to day that France would give Wrangel all the aid in its power. Agreements are being sought to insure tne co operation of Rumania and possibly of Hungary in a united drive to over throw the Red government, this news paper said. This misunderstanding between Premier Millerand and Lloyd George appeared likely today to bring to naught all efforts to restore peace Be tween Russia and Poland. With the principal allies at loggerheads, the Bolsheviki are expected to be embold ened to keep up their drive for War saw. Recognition of Wrangel may also give Trotzky and Lenlne ground for a charge of bad faith against the allies, as the Bolshevist leaders had been given to understand that no such action would be taken until after the conference at Minsk at which an ef fort was to be made to bring about immediate cessation of hostilities. V. S. Will Not Take Sides. Washington. Aug. 12. The United States will refrain "for the present" from taking sides in the differences between Great Britain and France over Kussia, it was learned today aV-the state department. Because of the serious situation in Poland, Hugh Gibson. American min Inter to that country, who has been home on leave of absence, will leave immediately for his post. It was an nounced today at the state depart ment. He will he accompanied by Warren B. Bobbins, acting chief of the division of near eastern affairs, who will serve as chancellor of the legation as long as his services are needed. TOPEKA IRISH IX PROTEST. Brand Kngl:h Parliament as 'Brutal and liCndUsli." A resolution protesting against the arrest of Archbishop Mannix of Aus tralia by the British government and a request that the secretary of state protest to Great Britain against the "coercive acta" passed against Ireland by the British parliament was en dorsed by friends of Irish freedom in a mass meeting here Wednesday night. They branded the act of parliament as "most brutal and fiendish against a highly civilized people whose only offense is the organized, functioned right to govern themselves thru their own free and independent republic.' The resolutions "'vociferously con demn the illegal arrest of Archbishop Mannix, guiltless of any offense save his avowed friendship for the land of his birth and citizenship, the Irish republic." Copies of the resolutions were sent to the state department at Washing ton, to Kansas senators and the Kan sas delegation In congress. C S. AVTHOHITIES HOLD NEGRO.

Beats Last Year's Record by Nearly 10,000 Tons. Surprising reductions department Garden City, Kan., Aug. 12. Ac cording to estimates made by officials of the Garden City company, the sugar beet yield here this year will surpass that of last season by more than 10,000 tons. Such an increase would place the 1920 beet crop in Kansas well above the 90,000 ton mark. The irrigated sector adjacent .to Garden City is the only producing area in the state. An average of from ten to twelve tons ner acre is expected, said officials of the company today when they an nounced that last week was the Iirsi time they had been compelled to de pend on Irrigation, so plentiful has been natural watering this year. Lake McKinney now contains sufficient wa ter for three or four irrigations. It is not expected this many will be neces sary, so a bumper beet crop is as sured. In addition to this lake, the largest body of water in Kansas, this area both on the uplands and in the Arkan sas valley is well supplied with water from pumping stations, operated by electricitv. More than 200 miles of transmission lines feed this power. Forty large pumping plants are operated in this manner. From the large 28-inch casing wells more than 2.000 gallons of water are lifted every minute, night and day. The Garden City company plans to place sugar beet exhibits in many of the state fairs of the middle west this fall. According to local officials of the Great Southwest association, these displays will be made under the auspices of their organization. NINE WANT SCHOLARSHIPS.

STANDING OF THE TEAMS. Johnson. Kan., Aug. 12. Contrary to recent reports southwestern Kansas is receiving an abundance of rainfall this month. Since August 1, 2.87 inches has fallen here. Stanton county, of which this town is the county seat, has had more rain this season than last year by three inches. Morton. Stevens. Seward and Gray counties have all felt heavy pre cipitations in the last week. Crops .are excellent here this sum mer. Threshing season is under way now and yields from 20 to 40 bushels to the acre are not uncommon thruout the territory. It is said here by some of the leading farmers that if the usual amount of rain comes during the next three weeks the corn yields will be far above the average all over the western half of the state as well as in eastern Colorado. Orain sorghums, the principal crop of this area, are progressing splendid ly. A record acreage is on its way to harvest. Milo maize and kaffir have the long end In point of acreage as against corn and other row crops. Most southwest farmers plan to cut this feed for the purpose of wintering cattle, it is said.

When your skin disease reaches its worst stage and th. fiery burning causes you to scra-ch ani fcratch in an effort to obtain relief, there Is many a sleepless night in store for you. It Is nothing more than folly to expect to be cured by the use of local treatment, such as ointments, salves, lotions, etc. Such remedies may afford some temporary relief, but you want more than relief; you want a remedy that will rid you forever of the tortur ing disorder. Eczema, tetter, boils, pimples, ul cers, irritations and scalp eruptions, as well as all other forms of skin dis eases, come from a disordered condi tion of the blood. They must be cured through the blood, and this explains whv local treatment fails so absolutely. I The radical and rational treatment is to take a thorough course of S. S. S.. the purely vegetable blood remedy, which thoroughly cleanses the blood of every particle of impurity. A few bot tles of S. S. S. will rqut out the disease germs fri-m your blood, your com plexion will beein to clear tip and you will soon be rid of the disease as thousands of others have.
