New York. Sept. IA wine short
age is impending on account of the
failure of grape crops in Europe &C
cording to Gen. Howard Carroll, who
has just returned to New York City
after a two months automobile tour
of the continent.
There is not a grape on the vines
in Germany" General Carroll said,
and few in France. 1t is a discour-
aging outlook for some folks"
General CAROLS observance on his
trip led him to criticise the "extrava-
gances of tourists from this country"
who, he said spent $3.50, 100000 in Eu-
rope this year for baubles, souvenirs,
jewelry and travelling expenses.
eff the amount of money which is
being spent by Americans in Europe
is any gauge Of the prosperity of this
country" he added, then we are on
the flood tide. Every city and hamlet
in Europe is crowded with Americana
spending money"

CLEVER FORGERY GAME.
Lumber Firm Victim of Re-
produced Checks.

Washburn.-A clever piece of forg-
cry has been brought to light during
the past week at the town of Mason
south of here. The White River Lur1-
Der Company had a large number of
checks forged and it was not until
the checks were presented for pay
ment at the bank at Mason that they
were detected. The game is thought
to have been that of a band of clever
operators, all of the checks being
cashed in saloons and other places in
the town and cities near here. The
forgers had secured one of the checks
of the company and had duplicates
printed and these were properly filled
in with the name of the logging sup
and the camp clerk
A reward is now being offered by
Sheriff Max Happle and the lumber
company for the arrest of the parties.

IOWA SENATOR PUTS WISCONSIN
COLLEAGUE AT HEAD
OF VANGUARD.
He RAPS STAND PATTERS
Says He Was First to Recognize Con-
fIict Within the Party.-Hawkeye
Man Quotes ST.
Paul.

Milwaukee. - United States Sen
Ator Jonathan P. Dolliver, OF Iowa,
made the first of a series of speeches
in Wisconsin in the interest of Senator
Robert NJ La Toilette at the Hippo
drome in Milwaukee.
The Iowa senator said that the first
among Republican political leaders to
comprehend the character of the ir-
responsible conflict within the party
between public interests and the pres
ent day organizations of private bust
ness, was Robert M. La Toilette, of
Wisconsin.
1T is proposed now to put an end
to his career-to cancel his commits
sion-to make an example Of him."
said Senator Dolliver, $50 that the
young men of the United States in the
future may perceive how much more
comfortable it is-how much safer
how much more profitable to serve the
impudent financial interests which are
trying to capture the strongholds of
the government, than it is to care for
that scattered and unorganized consti-
tuency-the people Of the United
States.
1T may be that he can afford to go
back to the quiet and repose of private
life, but if the state of Wisconsin,
yielding to the corrupt influences at
this moment flowing in upon her from
all directions-shall go back to the old
form of government by political boss
es, owing their allegiance to foreign
corporations, it would be a calamity
almost inconceivable in it's disaster to
you and your children"
He Quotes ST. Paul.
Speaking of stand patters," Sen
ator Dolliver said there were two
schools, the Aldrich school, which says
hold fast all | give you," and the
school of the apostle, who in single
sentence pointed out plain road we'll
suited to the progress of society
Prove all things and hold fast to
that which is good
ct is an encouraging thing" he said,
that while the Aldrich school has
been closed, not for repairs, but per-
manently-the American people by the
million are studying the precept laid
down by the apostle, with results SO
far reaching in their influence as to
amount to political revolution. The
course of study is a short one in this
school, which now numbers among it's
students a most distinguished pupil
who already holds the diploma of the
other school - the president of the
United States
In conclusion he said the Republican
party did not need bosses to tell it
what to do, but rather leaders to
pursue a path of wisdom and guides
to point out the pitfalls that lie on
every side.
