September For
Pea Coal
COAL consumers who put in their Pea Coal during
the present month will benefit by getting a bet
ter grade of fuel and at prices lower than any other
month during the fall and winter.
TT is our firm conviction that Pea Coal prices are due lor an
J- advance in October —or just as soon as real cold weather
comes to stay.
TN recent years it has been customary to increase the price of
i -*■ Pea Coal at the same time and for the same amount as Egg,
Stove and Nut sizes Not so on September 1.
ON the first day of this month Egg, Stove and Nut Coal was ad
vanced 85 cents per ton at the mine. Pea Coal was ad
vanced but 10 cents per ton.
From July 1 to September i, Exclusive, Egg, Stove and Nut sizes
advanced 95c per ton, Pea Coal 20c per ton
I
WE are expecting an advance of 75 cents per ton on Pea Coal
in the near future.
? ; , . "
js "TJON'T wait and get caught in the "Fall
Winter Rush." If you wait you will
pay higher prices and whais worse, you may
not be able to get the coal when you need it

MORGENTHAU FEARS
GERMANY'S STRENGTH
Says Opinion Is Strong That League of Notions Is the Only
Means to Prevent Disaster; Hun Border States Weak
S.y -•fnnrie frit Pre**,
< Paris, Sept, 89, —"Germany came
through this war a perfect dynamo
of strength. Her human military
power is practically as great as ever
and her 66,900,999 people have been
• schooled and hardened by trials,
j They have learned economy and self
. denial,
j "The nation has been compressed
: Into a concentrated mass, wblch Is
surcharged with energy and moving
I with centripetal force, while Ger
many's neighbors are spreading
themselves out thin, and quarreling
and moving with centrifugal force.
Thus spoke Henry Mogenthau,
: who headed the United States In-
I vesttgatlon commission which has
! been at work In Poland, In dlscuss
! lug to-day his observations In Cen
tral Europe.
, "And what will be the result?"
Mr, Morgenthau asked. Replying to
his own question, he continued!
Fears Resort to Arms
"If disintegration keeps up nmong
j Germany's neighbors, there enn he
j but one result. I doubt whether
Germany fully appreciates her own
; strength. AH she sits, calmly watch
ing the dickering going on between
i the new states, which are losing
sight of great principles and flght
, tng over little strips of territory, she
must take grim satisfaction In the
| battle her enemies aro waging In her
behalf. And a Germany, encourag
ed by such discord nmong weak and
struggling stateH, undoubtedly will
resort to nrms within a few years
and regain her lost territory.
"What will prevent military cli
que from regaining control In Ger
many If Europe continues to offer
such tempting prizes to various na
tionalities? Such n situation will
not encourage Germany to regain
her trade by peaceful means nnd to
pay Indemnities.
'What Is to encourage the demo
crats In Germany who are trying to
get away from militarism? Europe
rapidly Is driving on toward a situa
tion which eventually must result
In a coalition between Russia and
Germany and the absolute destruc
tion of many of the newly-created
powers unless steps be taken to pro
vent It.
League Only Remedy
Opinion Is strong that the League
of Nations is the only means for
preventing such a disaster. And It
must come soon and have the loval
support of both great and small
powers. Greece. Italy. Jugo-Slavla,
Czech o-Slovakla, Poland and other
cured a bonus of $10,600 from the
amtnatlon has been made recently.
Rig Bonus Paid—The State se-
Incorporation of the Crane Ice
Cream Company, of Philadelphia,
with a 13,000,000 capitalization.

, European countries which have
| been fought over and are In a sadly
weakened condition, need the sup
port of some organization which will !
afford them the proper tribunal for
their disputes and assist them In
winning their publics away from the
Idea that war Is the only means of
getting Justice.
"It Is Impossible to create barrier
states against Bolshevism and mili
tarism, and If these new states con
tinue their quarrels and weaken
themselves they cannot resist any
enemy, much lees a great untouched
power like Germany,
"Germany Intelligently refused lo
light to a finish with the United >
States. She withdrew In good order
to n place of safety, where the war :
I had not ruined her factories and ,
where everything was ready for the
resumption of the peace Industry. !
"The forces of peace must organ- j
Ira and consolidates otherwise they j
are Inviting an onslaught which Ger- i
man arms unquestionably wilt make i
within n few years unless Ger- !
! many's enemies entrench themselves [
through constructive work and es- ,
tabllsh the nations which threatens
i lo weaken themselves nnd the Al
■ lies through greed and jealousy.
Strung Poland Necessary
"Germany has gone over Into 1
Russia. Her people are organizing i
1 there and they will marshal Russian I
resources and utlllzo them In com- ;
hatting the rest of the world unless
a strong Poland Is croated as a pro- >
toctlon for Europe.
"With her great Industrial re- !
' cources and wonderful railway sys- j
tenia dominating Central , Europe,
Germany Is In a very fortunate posi
tion. She Is strong and virile and |
cupable of great commercial and i
military effort,
"Germany will leave Prance nlono,
perhaps; but she Inevitably will try j
to gobble up Russia and many of i
the small countries of Central Eu
rope.
"The task of the United States Is j
clear. She must begin through her '
allies; she must equip statesmen In 1
the International school and create i
the first general staff that has over ;
existed so as to have leaders who j
will realize what the world develop- j
ments are.
"An America which Is ready, men
tally and physically to stand behind
the League of Nations can hold the j
balance of power In the world. If i
the United States does not measure I
up to Its responsibilities, Germany I
may win the next time and secure i
domination of the world."

WHO HAS PICTURE OF
OUR LARGEST TREES?
Washington—Who has pictures of
our largest trees? The American
Forestry Association of Washington,
D. C., wants it. The association also
wants pictures of trees with a his
tory connected with them and a short
account of why the tree is famous.
The largest nut-bearing tree in the
United States is a valley oak on the
ranch of B. F. Graver in San Benito
county, Calif. It is thirty-seven feet
six inches in circumference, and it
is claimed it produces a ton of acorns
every year. Many havfe said the
Hooker oak, of Chico, Calif., was
the largest, but this tree is twenty
one feet eight inches in circumfer
ence. The largest tree in the non
nut-bearing class of hardwoods is
a sycamore near Wotthington, Ind.,
and the sycamore is the largest
hardwood tree in North America.
MUNICIPAL, FISH MARKET
AT PORTLAND ABOLISHED
Portland, Ore.—Portland's munici
pal flsh market, where the public,
during the war, purchased all kinds
of flsh at prices somewhat below
those charged by other markets, has
been abolished by the City Council.
The city shouldered a financial loss
of $3,000. Members of the council
pointed out that the market was not
intended to be permanent, but was
an emergency, war measure. They
asserted that by keeping down the
price of flsh and preventing profi
teering Portland's citizens were saved
several thousand dollars a month
during the war.
