The Telegraph declares that speeches and notions of the liUior nilnlntora have boeii twisted and misrepresented to Hit i L seclional purposes and tlie minds of their constituents have been pois oned by nsidions propaganda.

In or dinary times cities do not think much uhout how citizens are to get their winter supply of coal. It Is only when tho community is up against a real famine that the subject is given any consideration. Then the charitable organizations get busy. llut there are lots of hard-working self-respecting people who do not want charity coal doled out to them. They want to pay for their coal and thoy are very glad when tho munici pally makes Homo provision so that they can buy their com us thoy need It. Indiana last winter was a fertile field for municipal experiments. At ICvuusvllle a municipal coal yard low ered and kept down the price of coal. .Mayor Henjamlu Hosso ran the yard out of his personal funds, lie sold coal at H cents a bushel while oilier dealers wore asking 1(1 cents. Yot ho municipal yard made a profit. In Terro Haulo thore was much dissatisfaction with tho mounting cost of coal and Mayor James Gossom established a municipal coal mine. Tho tcity leased a small mine and operated this for lift days, selling coal for $.1.50 a ton. The mine was not adequate to meet fhe demands and it became apparent at the end of two months that other arrangements would liavo to ibo made If the project -was to bo carried 'on. Tho vlty administration found coal laud in tho city. This was secured uud tho new mine opened. 'Prlvajo backers withdrew their support and the scheme collapsed. llut in the meantime it had served its purpose of keeping coal prices down. Winter before last Dr. Rollin Hunch, mayor of Muncie, started a municipal coal pile. The mayor and a number of business men promoted tho project and sold about 1U0 cars of coal at cost. During last winter 1(11 rars were Bold and as many as Kill teamsters were hired for hauling purposes. Tho pricos cliurged, plus freight and 75 cenls for hauling, ranged from 2.10 to $2.73 per ton. I Clubs were formed whereby two to three poor families could obtain coal by uniting to purchase a cart load. Care was exercised to supply only the needy and such families as were most affected by the severe winter weath er. . i , i ,i i .i m Dr. Bunch says the municipal coal pile is now a regular Institution of Muncie. They have at present 2000 tons of coal stored. E RUSSIANS APPEAL TO PRESIDENT FOR AID LONDON, June 24.. An earnest plea for Intervention In Hussia, either economic Or armed, has been sent to President Wilson by a large group of Russians here. The plea Is set forth in a long cablegram delivered to the American embassy for transmission to Washington. It Is signed by ap proximately 1 00 persons, some prom inent in the Kerensky government. A similar appeal will be made Iby the Russian ambassador at Washington. The appeal says that with the nat rual weulth of Russlu In Its hands, Germany can wage war for a long period doslpto the blockade, and it is added that to set up a serious bar rier to further penerutions by the Germans is possble only by force of arms. An alternative to an armed Inter vention Is recognized, however, In an economic intervention. To prevent Russia from fulling Into the hands of tho Germans, whether willing or un willing, prompt action by the allies looking toward rehabiltatlon Is neces sary, it Is urged. "If neither military or economic aid Is given, Russia may -be drawn before long Into the sphere of Ger man influence," the plea declares. "Delay is dangerous. Tho allies must find In themselves sufficient political foresight und energy to give effect to this work." (Continued From rage One.)
