Drought Delays Work.
c. A. HOOVER.
o. E. DICKSON.

Since the contest for the one hun
dred dollars cash prize for the best
road leading into Oskaloosa was COM
menced the country adjacent of the
city has been without rain. Work
on the roads progressed as far as pos
sible under the circumstances, but
nothing more can be done until We
have rainfall. The work that was
done cannot be noted in most cases
on account of the dust that is daily
becoming worse and the roads are also
somewhat "cuppy," Those in charge
of the work stand ready at any time
to give the highways any needed
work, but with conditions in the pres
ent state the work that can be ac-
complished makes the roads worse
than before.

verSal Disarmament AS
Utopisn.

Universal peace and disarmamclat. as
proposed by the Car of Russia, are to
be considered as a Utopian dream, in
the opinion Of Vice Admiral Sakamoto,
of the japanese navy. who is here for a
brief stay en- route to Japan from the
recent international naval conference at
London, 70 which he was sent as a del
egate from his country.
Admiral Salkamoto, who is accom-
panied by Mr.. Yamakawa, an admiralty
counselor. believes that all the world
powers must continue their extensive
naval programs, which includes the con-
struction Of the improved types Of bat
tleships. but he thinks that the terrors
and cruelties Of warfare can be lessened
by an observance Of humane principles
by the countries involved.
At the naval conference. at which
'hese two distinguished japanese naval
authorities were present, there were
,lso representatives Of the United
states, Great Britain, Germany. France
taly. Spain. Austria. They adopted an
greement as to the conditions that will
govern future conflicts between the
powers concerned.
Admiral Sakamoto was a guest o.

dor. at luncheon at the embassy In X

by Mr.. Yamakawa and the japanese

where they purchase reVUlVets aid
suits of secondhand clothing, and from
there to Concord. y. H, where they
talked with several acqualntances and
said that II they were cornered, they
would kill their pursuers, rather than
return 10 the navy yard.
The police of the East Concord Di-
vision communicated this morning with
the naval officials here that they were
watching the freight yards and tracks,

way the prisoners will attempt 10 leave
