England's political crisis approached a climax today, with all attention centered on (Manchester, awaiting Prime Minister Lloyd George's announcement of his intentions.

Superficially, It is really a speech before the Manchester reform club, with the guests limited to 300, but actually it will be addressed to the entire nation for the premier very: utterance will bt broadcast with ail possible haste by more than 40 newspaper andx press association correspondent.

Press 3Iakes Comment Austen Chamberlain's address of yesterday and the editorial comments theron fill many columns 'in this morning's papers. The points most discussed are the propablo effect of the speech on the ranks of the party, the question of the. alleged jinevitablene r( a some form of coalition 4n the next parliament and the conservation 3eader3-references, to labor.

Esther Hamilton Denton, mother of Albert II.

Denton-She has been a resident of this com munity so long that sho can be ap considered as the mother of Arkansas City. The living of her life in this community lias been an example worthy of emulation iand demonstrates that "Mrs Denton was an unusual woman and a noble She.wa3 an exceed-singly brigKl woman and could con-, verse with the lowly or the learned entertainingly and interestingly. She was one of tfc.e most motherly moth-r; ers it has beeu our. pleasure to know. it was her natuve not only to mother her own oifspring, but those who came in contact with her.

For that reason she 'was dearly beloved an highly esteemed by everyone v. was so fortunate as to possess an acquaintance with her. Mrs. Denton came City fifty-two. years ago.

After living in 4hiy city a short time she and her husbnnd went to the farm southeast of he city, which, she sU owns.

So.

great was it. that its mantle fell upon those in her large circle oC acquaintanceship. So great and so strong was her mother, love that it was reflected equally as strong In the son for the mother. Time and time again have we heavfr admirers laud the wonderful love that existed between Mother" Denton and her son Albert. It cannot.be told in words.

Organized labor in New York lias declared itself as favoring the democratic party, and the democratic press is. giving much prominence to the fact. It may be taken for granted that the declaration was inspired by rarlical labor leaders who gee in a democratic administration a wfder license for.

practicing their methods But conservative labor knows differently. The rank and file of labor knows that their best hope Jqt steady work at good wages lies--Mi the deveK opment of republican economic jpo-icies. Since republicans charge of the government unemployment has been reduced to a minimum, and wa ges in an'yN of basic. (ndu--tries have been increased. Anybody who follows the reports of car loadings, steel orders, building cpntracts, and other signs that ind i- Xxate the state of business, knows that the country is at the beginning of of tremendous prosperity, which is another -way of sayinjg that the condition of labor, will be at its best for-a long time to come.
