talk OF BIG ALLIANCES
THE KAISER'S REPLY TO ANGLO
RUSSIAN ENTENTE.
Turkey May Enter Triple Alliance.
Powers Agree on Macedonia.
! Servian Troubles.
Special Cablegram to The Star.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
LONDON, July 1S.-There has been
much making of great alliances in the
European press this week. It Is an
nounced from Paris that Emperor VIII
liam's reply to the Anglo-Russian entente
is to be the inclusion of Turkey In the
triple alliance. This assumes willing
ness to commit himself on the part Of
Sultan Abdul Hamid which is quite in
consistent with all his previous policy. He
has preserved his political independence
heretofore largely by his skill in playing
off first one and then another of the great
powers against their neighbors. He Is
far too shrewd statesman to have any
confidence in the disinterestedness or per-
manency of the kaiser's affection for him.
The impending agreement among the
powers in regard to Macedonia aroused
enhanced suspicious at the f1ldiz palace.
but there Is strong reason to believe that
genuine reforms will be insisted upon in
the present long-continued crisis and that
Germany will be forced by sense of de-
cency, If nothing else, to abandon her
dog-in- the-manger attitude, which on sew
eral occasions has prevented the necessary
insfstence.
Coup D'Etat Seems Imminent.
Another report deals with the agree
ment between Austria and Turkey. Moth
ing definite has TRANSFERRED, but the rumor
is based upon the grave situation in
Servia, where some form of coup d'etat
seems imminent. 1t is only too evident
that King Peter is too weak a character
to deal with the turbulent elements in
that little kingdom. According to cur
rent belief, If it has any foundation. this
murder made monarch would be glad to
retire to the obscurity whence he came.
Abdication is common talk, but it Is diff
cult to see how 1t could be carried into
effect without involving an interregnum
of dangerous violence.
1t is with regard to the serious situation
which may arise at any moment that
Austria would like to have an under
standing with Turkey and the other pow
ers. Austria's long-standing ambition in
| regard to Servfan territory is not partic-
ularly keen at the present moment, and
the powers would not look with favor on
any movement to take aggressive advan-
tage of the Servan troubles.

Groceries by Carload.

An incident occurred in this city
yesterday which cannot help but prove
discouraging TO the public spirited
citizen. It was the unloading and dis
tributing of 5000 pounds of groceries
to farmers and others of the valley,
who preferred to buy their necessary
groceries from a tramp peddler. who
er than buy from the local dealer who
helps pay Union county's taxes. There
was practically a carload of the stuff
and farmers came to the car or ware
house upon notification to get their
CHEAP" wares Glib talking convinc-
ed the farmer that he was getting
things cheap and in better quality
than could possibly be had in La
Grande. To all appearances the far
mers went away highly pleased.
What the general status of opinion
will be when the packages are open
ed and the housewife attempts to
cook with the things er husband pur-
chased from afar is hard to tell
Five thousand pounds of groceries
is quite an item, and distributed even
ly among the grocerymen of La
Grande would mean considerable to
all.
This undesirable occurrence takes
place in the best of counties, but 1t
is to be lamented that they should
take place in Union county-a place
where home patronage, as a rule, runs
in the mind of every citi-
zen.-La Grande Observer.

PRACTICAL ACTION
TAKEN IN CANADA
No More Liquor Licenses Will Be Is
sued TO Construction Camps Along
New Railroad-IIarder to Get a
Drink Across Bar Than 10 Locate
a Minc-Policy Based Upon Purely
Economical Reasons.

The rapid advancement OF practi-
cal temperance sentiment in Canada's
westernmost province is attested by
the decision Just reached by the gov
ernment OF British Columbia to issue
no liquor licenses to construction
camps along the Grand Trunk Pa
clfic, although numberless licenses
have been received, and by its de-
cision the government voluntarily
abandons an immensely eagerly ten
dered revenue.
Attorney General Bowser says tho
policy decided upon is based upon
purely economic reasons.
Liquor licenses" said he, "mean
more police and more courts all of
which cost money. so that the loss Of
the revenue which would have ac-
crued from the license receipts is
more than made up by the lessened
expenditure In preserving law and
order Prince Rupert has at least
1000 people and probably more, con-
slsting OF a typical frontier popula-
tion, yet there are only two police
men in the place and the town is per-
fectly orderly. The attorney generals
department attributes this state OF
affairs largely to the fact that liquor
is not sold there. At Hazleton there
are some licenses, but that is settled
place and not n construction camp,
md the licenses have been in exist
ence for some time.
In other respects 1t is harder to get
a drink over a bar in the interior of
British Columbia than II is to locate
2 mine. There have been some blind
pigs at Prince Rupert, but several o,
them have been prosecuted and con-
vctions obtained against their keep |

CLUBS FOR LOCAL OPTION.
Temperance Movement in Washing
ton Is Active.

The cause of local option is to be
advanced in Spokane by federation
OF clubs to be organized in the diff
ferent churches of the city for the
sole purpose of working to secure To-
cal option. says the Spokane Chron-
icle.
This was determined at a large
and enthusiastic meeting held on
Tuesday at the FIRST Baptist church
under the auspices of the Mems club
OF that church.
The meeting was addressed by w.
j. Herwig. assistant state superin-
tendent of the anti-saloon league. At
the conclusion OF Mr.. Herwlg's ad-
dress. a resolution was adopted that
the club affiliate and cooperate with
clubs to be formed in all the church
es of Spokane with the special object
OF working to secure local option.
The members of the anti-saloon
league in all sections of the state are
working for local option rather than
for prohibition.

done TO keep the town dry. q

This is a policy which the govern
ment intends to continue at least so
long as unsettled conditions attend
ant on construction work prevail. At
the beginning of the year the depart
ment took over the matter of grant
ing liquor licenses outside the munich
palities and placed it in charge OF the
superintendent of provisional police,

cense OF the kind indicated has been
issued.
