OF all the classes in this country
the farmers are now the most favor
ed. Prices are very high on almost
all products. Farmers who have
anything to sell can get profitable
prices.
This condition will not always
obtain. Our Big Sandy farmers
should put forth the greatest efforts
of their lives now. make hay while
the sun Shines" and get all the
profits possible out of this prosper
GUS period. Work as you never
worked before and you will have
Something to lay up for rainy
day" Do not conflne yourself to
a corn crop and quit work for the
season when corn is laid by"
Working every day in the year is
what brings results in farming just
the same as in all other lines of
business. Improve the present great
opportunity. The pendulum will
swing the other way sooner or later

INTEREST IN AVIATION GROWS
CurtIss May Try and Defend the Cup
at the Meeting of Bird-Men
This Fall.

NEW YORK. Sept. 3.-(Special Tele-
gram)-Glenn H. Curtiss, the aviator, has
arranged for a conference with the con-
test committee fthe Aero Club of Amer
lea, when he will be officially apprised of
the conditions governing the international
competition for the cup at the meeting
of aeronauts on Long Island later in
the autumn.
From the present outlook 1t is quite
likely that Curtiss will be officially Sc
lected by tha Aero club to defend the
cup. His aeroplane will be decked with
American eolors and his flights in the
contest will be marked with patriotic
speeches. Among the aviation enthusi-
asts in this city it is believed that the
date OF the international tournament will
be changed. Several of the leading avia-
tors. among them Captain Baldwin. Cliff
ford Hartman, Alfred lie Blanc and others
have made arrangements to compete in
the contests which will be held In st.
Louis, starting on October II. The in
ternational tournament here was original
ly scheduled to take place october 10, but
application was made to move the date
up five days. making the tournament
start on October 20.

PAN-AMERICAN CONFERENCE
FINISHES IMPORTANT WORK
Newspapers of Germany Fear the
United States VIII Secure Their
south American Trade.

LONDON. Sept. Especial Telegran.)
Developments during the closing weeks
of the Pan-American conference in
Buenos Ayres, were followed with es-
pecialIy keen attention here and in Ber-
lin. The outcome of the quiet, unosten-
tatious work of the Washington delega-
ton, headed by Henry White, so long
prominent at the America embassy in
London and a leading figure at the Alge-
ciras conferece has made deep imrpes-
sion upon statesmen and exporting mer-
chants in both capitals. In both there
is a clearer sense than ever before of
the ultimate bearings of the good Of
fices of the United States in promoting
international solidarity in the three
Americas.
That the trade and social evolution of
all the American republics will be pro-
NOTED extensively as a result of the con-
ference, and this, too. without impair
ment of the independence Of any, is the
inference drawn in England

ACTED IN VIOLATION OF RULES
Man Now in LImeliuht Gained "a
Reputation I'm Colorado, There

Expert shot.

NEW YORK, Sept S.-tspecial Tele-
grant, Rev. Harry A. Handel, who
gained considerable Reputation for his
strenuousity In the fold in Colorado. and
who is known In Episcopal circles as the
clerical handyman. is preparing an an
swer to the demands for an explanation
by Bishop Burgess of Long Island as TO
why he united In marriage +. Augustus
.Heinze, the Montana copper millionaire,
'to Mrs. Henderson, a Broadway chorus
girl and divorced woman.
Rev. Frederick Burgess, bish;o OF
Long Island, has allowed no time to
elapse before demanding an explanation
fromN Rev. Mr.. Handel as to why he
should violate a rule of the church which
relates to the marrying of divorced per-
sons. Bishop burgess, even among Epis-
copalians, is conspicuous for his views on
divorce and remarriage. He has spoken
against the marrying OF Divorces. both
in public and in private, and he was
consequently shocked when he learned
that one of his co-adjutors in his own
parish had been a party to a marital
transaction which was not only adver-
tised in an oblique light, but which con-
cerned the Femarrying of a woman who
wa but recently released by the courts
from the bond of wedlock.
Just what defense Rev. Handel will
make is not known, but from his inn
petuous temperament 1t is suggested by
his friends that he will be perfectly able
to handle his side OF the approaching
controversy.
Rev. Harry A. Handel is known as the
clerical handyman" He lived for years
in Colorado, where he acquired a repu-
tation for strenuousness. He was born
in England forty-four years ago, and
after his ordination, settled In Meeker,
Colo, where he gained a wide reputation
by building his own church entirely by
himself. He started in with a shovel
and excavated the ground for the build
ing, put in the stone work, carried the
hod and laid the brick with his own
hands. He did all this because his con-
gregation was poor He also built rec
tory where cowboys, hunters and stock
men were always sure of a welcome, and
because he could not afford house
keeper, he did his own cooking. He has
also been a cowboy and is an expert shot
When Mr.. Roosevelt was at Meeker he
entertained him at the rectory, and since
his appointment to the fire department
chaplainship, he has been almost as popu-
lar with the fire fighters here as he was
with the cowboys out west.

WATERFOWL, s. D., Sept. 2.-(spe-
cial. BACKED by the opinion of Attorney
General s, w. Clark. State Game Warden
w. r. Bancroft is ready to fight out in
the courts the question of whether or not
the game law is constitutional. The is
sue was raised by Attorney Joe Kirby OF
Sioux Falls, who contends that the fea-
ture exacting license fee of 81 from
resident hunters and SIS from non-resi-
dent hunters is discrimination that
will not stand up in supreme court.
In submitting his opinion, the attorney
general says that the supreme court
has already passed upon the right of a
state to tax a nonresident more than a
resident. He advises the state game
warden. and all county game wardens as
well. to bring prosecutions without hesi-
tation under the law as It now stands.

CIV. POST FILES LABOR SUIT
Continued from First Page.)

J. W. Van Cleve, who died May Is, of
this year.
The complainant, Post, states in his petit
ton that he is a stakeholder of the Bucks
company and that his interests and those
of the company will suffer by reason of
the proposed agreement meeting by the
American Federation leaders and the stove
company Officers has been set for next
Tuesday. and 1t was to head off possible
action that the suit was filed today.
1t is claimed among other things that the
contamination of the proposed agreement
would deprive the stove company OF any
opportunity of recovering hundreds of
thousands of dollars lost because of the
union boycott and that irreparable injury
to the concern win result because of the
destruction of prestige 1t gained through
its victory over the labor unions in the Dis
trict of Columbia.
claim for damages in the sum of $780,
900, alleged suffered as the result Of the
boycott is set up under the Sherman act,
making the case identical In many respects
with the famous Danbury hat suit in which
the hatters' recovered S22l.O0O as the result
Of boycott by the labor unions.
The petitioner charges that the present
directorate OF the Bucks company is about
to enter a deal to thwart any effort on the
part of the company to collect damages sus-
tanned through the boycott.
Allegations In Petition.
After reciting the history of the Bucks
case from the date of its inception. in
1906 when the Metal Polishers' union went
on strike down to the present time, IT is
charged that though the strike was
without cause as afterwards stated by
Chief Justice Wright of the equity court
OF the District OF Columbia, the Federation
OF Labor instituted the boycott as part
OF q conspiracy to wreck firm which
had presumed to insist upon the right Of
all men to work for their families and
themselves.
Relieving the death of J. w. Van Cleave
who had been the backbone Of the COM
pany's opposition to the federation leaders
1t is alleged Fred w. Gardner, q majority
stockholder, assumed managerial control OF
the company and planned to change its
policy to its detrlment
The petitioner explains he made every
effort to prevent contamination OF the
proposed deal to close the plant of the
company to all except union men, but that
the net result of his efforts has been
to gain from Mr.. Gardner the emphatic
announcement that the deal was carried
out
1t is further alleged that 1t is proposed
by the defendant oompany's present direc-
torate to violate a contract with the
American Anti-Boycott association, which
is prosecuting the cases against Gompers
and his associates, now pending in the
supreme court This contract was entered
into during the life of Mr.. Van Cleave
