EYES OF CHINA OPENED.
Conditions Now Far Worse as Regards
 Foreign Interests.

London. August 27-Byron Brenan British consul general at Shanghai. who has just returned to England, said to a. representative of the Associated Press to. day:
 From the standpoint of foreign inter- ests, the position In China is far worse today than before the international oc- cupation of Peldn. Formerly the Chinese believed foreign interests were, at any rate to certain extent identical. Thanks to recent events they are now better a ble than ever to play off one power against another, so patently have the interests of the several powers been shown to diverge. There is a very hostile feeling in many parts of northern China, and local disturbances may be expected"
 MT. Fireman declared that Russia and Germany had both far more influence with China than Great Britain. He be- lieved the United States would be the greatest sufferer by the closing of Man. churia to foreign trade.

do so. Such charges are as malicious as they are false" declared MT. Shaffer.
 Many companies did not sign contracts, he said, and consequently the Amalga- mated men broke no contracts by striiS- ing. Contining, President Shaffer said:
 of the United States Steel Corporation will sign the scale for all the mills signed for last year, with the understanding that no man Is to be discharged for connection or sympathy with labor organizations, and if the scale Is signed for mills where the men want to organize, the strike will be terminated"
 But Little Change.
 Secretary John Williams of the Amal- gamated Association, after looking over his mail and hearing reports from organ izers this morning, said there was but little change in the strike situation.~>
 we are receiving additional encourage ment every day. said he, ''and when a settlement is made 1t will be an honorable end for the Amalgamated Association We have made no overtures for peace, and all movements in that direction are being made by others. While we are. not participating in the efforts now being made, do not say we will not accept any fair proposition that may be made look ing toward an ending of the strike"

THOUGHT MATTER SETTLED.
France Made New Demand at Eleventh
 Hour.

Constantinople, Monday, August 2s.- The following was the position of af- fairs immediately preceding the depart ure of the French ambassador, M. Con- stans:
 The Turkish government was showing a disposition to regard the French de- mands as settled by the trade relating to the quays and the Albanian land seizures. The French embassy in order to prevent a misunderstanding wrote to Tewfek Pasha, the minister of foreign affairs, yesterday, that France In addi- ton, expected the settlement of two other claims included In the demands made August Ii, and that unless they were conceded before noon, M. Constans would leave and Munir Bey, the Turk tsh ambassador to France, would re- ceive his passports. Instead of yielding the Turkish government asked for twen- ty-four hours delay and made alterna- tive propositions which were so unac- ceptable that M. Constans did not reply to them.

TROUBLE FOR TUBE WORKERS.
They May Have Violated Rules of
 Their Union.

Pittsburg, August N.-According to the reports from the organized tube workers who are striking in sympathy with the Amalgamated Association. there is a lot of trouble in store for the nasty action they took in walking out of the plants of the National Tube Company without the formality of submitting their cause to the general officers of the American Fed eration of Labor.
 It has been discovered, so the men say, that they have violated the constitution of the federation, which provides that be- fore going out on strike a local lodge receiving charter direct from the Amer ican Federation of Labor, must submit a list of grievances to the executive coun- ell of the federation for approval: Failure to do this cuts off the striking lodge from all strike benefits from the federation or from other allied trades unions.

Why, if that crank at Red Oak don 4
quit asking such fool questions, we'll
cut him off our exchange list and
leave him cropping in the outer dark

addicted to the revival habit that
they will pay an evangelist more for
a three week stand than they pay
their hard working pastor for a

that an unregenerate journalist bull

Doctors, Editors

The doctors are all friends of ours
We expect them to stay with us unit
death Yet, at the risk OF incurring
their displeasure, we reproduce the
following. We don't know where ii
came from any more than we know
whose rain spout the DOCTORS medicine
comes from. We find it in a paper
credited "Ex." If we knew the author
we would gladly give his name, be-
cause the article is really good. Here
it is;
..The doctor from Algona said that
newspapers are run for revenue only
What in tho thunder do doctors run
for anyway Do they run for glory?
One good healthy DOCTORS bill would
run this Office six months. An editor
works half day for So with an invest
ment OF 1000; doctor looks wise and
works ten minutes for $500, with an in
vestment of three cents for catnip, and
pill-pox that costs s1.37. A doctor
goes to college two or three years, gets
diploma and string OF words the
devil himself cannot pronounce, culti-
Yates look Of gravity that he pawns
off for wisdom, gets box OF pills, a
tayuse and a meat saw and sticks out
his shingle full tiedged doctor. He
will then doctor you until you die at q
stipulated price per visit. and then put
them in as chick as your pocKetbook
will permit. An editer never gets his
education finished; he learns as long as
he lives and studies all his life. He
eats bran lnush and liver. He takes
his pay in hay and turnips and keeps
the doctor in town by refraining from
printing the truth about him. We
would like to live in Algona and run a
newspaper six months and see if the
doctor would change his mind about
our running newspaper for revenue
only If we didn't get some glory out
Of it we would agree to take one dose
OF his pills, after first saying our
PRAYERS II the editor makes mis-
take he has to apologize for il, but if
the doctor makes mistake he buries
it. II we make one there is lawsuit,
tall swearing and smell of sulphur.
but if the doctor makes one there is a
funeral, cut flowers and a smell Of var
nish. The doctor can use word foot
long, but if the editor uses it he has to
spell it. If a doctor goes to see another
mans wife he will charge the man for
the visit. Ii the eeitor calls on
another mans wife he. gets charge

wrestle with this and give us the re-
suit of lis deliberations.

Man that is born Of his parents is
OF few days and full OF microbes.
He goeth to school when young
ster and gets the seat of his pants
padded for something he didn't do
until he is sick at heart. He proweth
up like weed in barnyard, and
soon reaches the age when he is
composed largely Of feet, freckles
and an appetite for pie. About the
time he gets too long for short trous,
ers and not long enough Tor long
ones he goeth away to college, learn
eth how to monkey with three dol
lar mandolin and play whiskey poker.
He cometh home bigger fool than
ever and marries a sweet young
thing whose pa is supposed to be
wealthy, but whom, he subsequently
ascertaineth, couldn't buy the prize
rooster at county fair. He wor-
rleth along from year to year, grad
ually acquiring offsprings until his
house resembles Sunday school
class just before Christmas. He
fretteth through the day and lieth
awake nights trying to figure out
how to keep himself and his depend
ent population out of the poor house.
Efforts are rewarded by having his
daughters run away and get married
and bring him home a nice sen-in-
law every few days to feast at his
board. His sons grow up and call
him governor and set him back for
FIVE spot every day ortwo. About
the time he has acquired enough
lucre to make it worth while
for his heirs to quarrel over, he
contracts cold and is hurried away
before he has time to talk to his fam
lily. His sons blow in his estate on
bad whiskey and plug hats, and his
wife puts the finishing touches to his
career by marrying the hired man. =
