Motor Omnibus Useful In War.

The great army maneuvers this
year will, as usual, possess many new
and interesting departures affecting
modern warfare Among other inno-
vations it is this year anticipated that
motor omnibuses will play a very
great part in the maneCvers.
Each motor omnibus will be pro-
vided with room for so soldiers, and
possess a speed of about 25 kilometers
an hour. This experiment was tried
with a small portion of troops last
autumn in Germany, and was found
to work spendidly, the men being
conveyed to the desired positions far
quicker than if they had marched on
foot, in addition to reaching their
destination much fresher and reader
for the work before them.
This year when a long march is
taking place it is intended to use the
motor buses in conjunction with foot
marches. The buses will convey a
portion of the troops ahead, drop them
at a certain point, whence they will
continue their march refreshed with
the rest and the drive, and the buses
will return to the main body for an
other load of soldiers, who will in turn
be conveyed to the now advance
guard.

HAGUE COURT FAVORS
THE UNITED STATES
SustaIns Nation in the Fisheries Dis
pute, Allowing Five Out OF
Seven Points.

The Hague, Sept. SIN decision
handed down by the international
court of arbitration on the Newfound-
land fisheries dispute, the United
States gained a substantial victory, be-
ing favored by five points to Great
Britain's two.
The British consider the two points
decided in their favor, Nos. and D.,
as of the highest Importance and 1t
Is understood that the colonial office
is satisfied with the outcome. On NO.
1, however, the United States has
raised certain questions Of equity
which will be submitted to special
commission for determination.
The court finds that the claims OF
Great Britain to a right to prohibit
American vessels from employing for
eigners and to impose harbor customs
and other duties are not authorized
by the treaty of 1878.
The tribunal finds that the regula-
ton of the manner, time, and imple-
ments of fishing which Great Britain
enforces must be reasonable and ap-
propriate, but Great Britain cannot
be the sole Judge of their reasonable
ness. In case of disagreement the
question must be determined by an
impartial tribunal like The Hague or
by a special commission.

common honesty. Strife and division
TO the end that the reign of waste and
pillage under the falseness of devel-
upbuiIding of private wealth upon the
ruins of the peoples resources shall
continue-this is the policy Of private
avarice and private plumber. Forests
and coal, water powers and phos-
phates-all the wealth that bleo2gs to
all the people-must be kept and de-
veloped for the benefit of all the peo-
pie.
This great policy for the welfare
Of all the people is now we'll under
way. Let us beware how we hinder
or retard it. Honor to whom honor
is due'-let us not forget that the man
who in thought, deed and word has
championed this vast and historic re-
form until today he is its personifica-
lion is that courageous, pure, unset
lsh young American, the president of
the national conservation commission.

property Of the people"
Mr.. Hill said that there are dangers
inseparable from national contrSl. The
machine is too big and remote, he
said, and it's operation too slog and
costly.
Continuing, Mr. Hill said:
ITO pack the fact into a single
statement, the need of the hour and
the end to which this congress should
devote itself is to conserve conserva-
ton. 1t has come into that peril which
no great truth escapes-the danger
that turks in the house of it's friends.
1t has been used to forward that seri-
GUS error of policy, the extension of
the powers and activities OF the ma
tional government at the expense of
those of the states. The time is ripe
and this occasion is most fitting for
distinguishing between real and fanci-
full conservation and for establishing
a sound relation of means to ends.
Toward the conservation of our
mineral resources little can be done
by federal action. The output is de-
termined not by the mine owner, but
by the consumer"

LA Toilette WINS IN
THE WISCONSIN PRIMARIES
Defeats Cook in the RS1ger State
Senatorial Race-McGoyern Leads
for Governor.

Milwaukee, Wis. - United States
Senator Robert NJ La Toilette carried
Wisconsin at the recent primary cleo
ton by an overwhelming majority
over Samuel A. Cook of Neenah. In Mil
waukee county the senior senator's
plurality easily will reach beyond
5000 and estimates are given Of his
vote of to 1, larger majority than
was anticipated.
There is no doubt that La Toilette
will have control of the candidates
platform convention at Madison and
that he will have the next legislature
back of him. So big was his vote
that it carried with it large majority
of the legislative nominees. The La
Toilette state ticket, headed by Fran
els E. McGovern, also is nominated by
a safe majority.
The 'insurgent" congressman were
renominated and added to their
strength by the nomination of Harry
C.. Cochems, the former Wisconsin
university football star Cochems de-
feated Stafford for denomination in
the Fifth district Cochems is the
man who placed La Toilette in nomin-
alton for president at the last Repub-
lican National convention.
Congressman Charles H. Weisse,
Democrat, easily defeated Burt Viii
liams of Ashland in the race for the
United States senatorial nomination of
his party.
Aside from the Republican state
ticket and the United States senatori-
al contests, few of the nominations
were contested.

Charles E. Townsend is conceded by
supporters of Senator Burrows to have
swept the state in the fight for the

P|NCHOT GIVEN
CHEERS At ST. PAUL
Senator Beveridge in Address
LaudS Former Forester.
SPEAKERS VOICE DROWNED
Tears Fill Conservation Champions
Eyes at Ovation rendered Him
James j. Hill and Secretary
Wilson Speak.

st. Paul, MINI. - The two oppos-
ing ideas of conserving natural re-
sources met fairly and squarely here
when Senator Beveridge, in an elo-
qlent speech, declared for national
control, while James ]. Hill argued
the contrary.
Clifford Pinchot received an ovation
that furnished the most dramatic mo-
ment of the congress. The former
forester, the object of wild demon
stration by the audience, stood with
tears streaming from his eyes until
the outburst of cheers had subsidized
and the spectators were again in their
seats.
Just what Senator Beverage was
trying to say complimentary to Mr..
Pinchot was drowned in the roar that
rose the moment the trend of his re-
marks became apparent.
Clifford Pinchot," said the speaker,
and the outburst started. 1t grew un-
til every one was yelling and the
whole house was on its feet waving
hats and handkerchief.
Senator Beveridge had no sooner re-
tired than cries of "Pinchot! Pinchot!"
rang through the house. He was
dragged forward by President Baker.
His voice shook as he spoke.
Senator Beverage sounded his key
note in the statement that this is one
nation, not forty-six nations.
IIe said in part:
Cooperation of municipality, state
and nation to correct past mistakes
and preserve and administer for the
general good of all the people the
natural resources yet remaining-this

Speaks of Accusations Withdrawn

his summer residence here that
George w. Chamlee had asked leave
to withdraw his petition for consid-
Grafton by the American Bar associa-
ton of charges against Mr.. Choate
by John r. Watts of New York and
that the association probably would
take no action on the charges, made
the following statement:
1.-The charges of John r. Watts
against me are absolutely unfounded
and l am glad the American Bar as
ISOLATION has disavowed all RESPONSE
bility for them. I have never acted
for Mr.. Watts or had any knowledge
Of his affairs. So far {; his charges
against my former firm have here
tofore come to my knowledge, have
investigated them and found them }
be without foundation"

The FIaus of France.

From the time of Henry ", 1889
to 1894, a white flag was the standard
of the French monarchy. It consisted
of a white field bearing three fleurs-
de-lis in gold. This was the flag of
France at the time OF the conquest of
Canada by the British. In 1894, dur
ing the Revolution, the tri-color of
three vertical divisions, blue, red, and
white, was adopted. This was also
the standard of the empire under the
two Napoleons, but it was powdered
with golden bees and on the center
stripe was the eagle of the empire.
The tri-color is the flag of the repub.
lie at the present time.

coArMAKERs' STRIKE OFF.
Seventy Thousand Workers Return to
Work in New York.

Work IN NEW IOFNs
New York. - The garment-work-
ers' strike, held to be one or the
greatest industrial disturbances In
the history of American labor, ended
Friday night and 10000 workers who
have been out since April 5 will re-
turn to work. BY its settlement
a crisis on the crowded East side
was averted. Thousands were out
of work and unable to pay rent
and eviction proceedings were so
numerous that thousands of mothers
and children were on the verge OF
being rendered shelterless. Hundreds
had already been forced out on the
streets.
The industrial loss of employers and
employees has run high into the mil
lions. In loss of wages alone the total
has been estimated at more than $1O,-
100000, while the loss to manufac-
turers, jobbers and retailers the coun-
try over has been computed at ten
times that amount.
In spite of the stupendous readjust-
ment Involved, the strike has been, in
the main, notable for its peacefulness.
There were numerous cases of petty
disorder, and petition of the manu-
facturers brought forth from Justice
Golf of the state supreme court an
injunction in which he ruled that any
strike called to demand the closed
shop was in restraint of trade.
julius Henry Cohen, counsel for the
manufacturers association, describes
the agreement signed by him and rep
resentatives of the strikers in this
sentence:
mo principle has been surrendered
by the manufacturers, yet the union
may truly claim they have won a
great victory for their people. The
manufacturers believe in the union
and in the principle that all who de-
sire it's benefits should share in its
burdens
One essential of this victory, and
one important not only to the strikers,
but to the nation at large which
wears this output, is the abolition of
all contract work at home. Hereafter
garments made in New York will be
manufactured under sanitary condt-
TONS There will be no more sweat
shops.
The rock on which all previous eff
forts at mutual Cancellation have split
has been the closed shop. That rock
has now been avoided by the ATOP
ton of the preferential union shop"
idea,
