Berlin, Oct 2.-There is an impress
sion in diplomatic circles that the
war will be of short duration The big
banks profess to have information
that it is now virtually over. The
truth of this depends upon the as
sumption that Turkey will submit after
show of opposition to the loss OF
Tripoli and will, not embark upon a
program of reprisals against Italian
subjects and Italian commerce.
Italy plans, it is learned authorita-
lively, to reopen negotiations with
Turkey as soon as the occupation of
Tripoli is assured, counting on re-
ported orders from Constantinople to
the local authorities at Tripoli not to
resist the landing and using German
channels of communication with the
enemy. If there is no opposition to

Chicago, Oct. 2.-Throughout the

There was no demonstration and the

AUGUST A STORM MONTH

August proved to be a tempestu
Gus month. 1t has poured down tor
rents of :ajn and blasts of tempests
with an apparent lack of cause for
such extraordinary manifestations as
it has repeatedly made. There has
been hardly rain during the month
that show ed any moderation. Pas
sionate gusts of wind, tremendous out
bursts of thunder and lightning and
such down pours as made the local
weather registration dizzy in tr"ing
to keep tab upon them, have been
the characteristics of the month of
torrents. A great deal of storm dam
age has been done time and again.
Yet the stotmy aspects of August
have not bern without their bene-
fits. The country has not la.xed for
any great length of time sufficient
rain for all the needs of agriculture
with considerable excess. In con-
sequence there has been great
deal of god er.,w!ng weather, tie
hot sun following the pelting of the
rain.

Governor Burke has received from
Kentucky not the brand that made
the Blue Grass state famous, but a
booklet written by Charles Wheeler
Bell, state official. The Souvenir
is called "The Good Old Days." is
beautifully printed in colors and it,
Illustrated. 1t is indeed masterpiece
of the printers art and the contents
surely entertain.
The writer compares the good old
days: with the present.
Here is quotation:
I'm the Good old Days all criminals
looked alike to the Judge and jury,
but nowadays nobody is arrested but
niggers or tramps or unlucky fellows
who happen to imbibe too many. Our
court houses were then called Tenn.
pies Of Justice, but now they might
appropriately be Dubbed "clearing
houses for separating the rich male
factors from the poor"
Here is another: =

was a man who had fit, bled and

knock the block off, of some other
fellow without getting a scratch, is
dubbed a colonel"

This is not a question of DR.. Wiley's
personal fortune. 1t is question
of what the administration intends
to do with the pure food law. If it
wants to go the Wiley way of rigid
enforcement it should establish in
the department of agriculture a har-
monious agency of prosecution con-

openly and without the necessity of

does not desire to enforce the law

THE BEST INVESTMENT
sixty percent isn't 10 worse

A bank pays four to five per cent
on savings deposits. A stock or bond
pays four to eight per cent And a
mortgage sometimes brings ten.
what do you think of one which pays
five to eight per cent, not per year,
! but per month? Yet this is exactly
what cash payments for your grocer
les will do, compared to paying each
month. McConkey does a cash bust
ness-he has no bookkeeping expense
no interest or money out on the books
no collection expense and no bad
DEBTS. and as consequence his ex-
pense account is from five to eight
per cent below what a credit mer-
chant can possibly reach. We ex-
pect to make as much money as any
merchant-we hope to make more,

lower expense of cash business we
can do this, and yet undersell anyone
running credit business. We can,
on the average, underseil the man

eight per cent. Not on every item,
perhaps,-a man is sure foolish that

DELAY IN WILEY CASE

1t is to be regretted that President
Taft does not give assurance that he
will dispose of the so called Wiley
case before he starts on his vaca
ton swing around the circle. When
the matter was brought to public
attention in July it was expected
that a decision would be promptly
rendered from the White House.
However, a certain degree of delay
seemed advisable to permit through
inquiry into the circumstances and
to obtain statements from the accus.
ed chief chemist and from his immed-
late superior, the secretary of agri-
culture. Those placements having
been filed, the matter was taken up
by house committee and Investigate
ed at some length, with the result of
materially broadening its scope and
revealing state of affairs in the de-
partment of agriculture which amazed
the public and, there is some reason
to believe, surprised the president.
The comment was then made that
the postponement of action was for
tunate in that it gave the president
information of value upon which to
base not only his ruling in the case
of the employment of DR.. Rusler, but
possible further action to straighten
out the unmistakable tangle in the
department.
The testimony has now been finish.
for more than a week and there is
no apparent prospect for decision
for several weeks. As far as any
thing emanating from executive head
quarters indicates, the president will
not take up this matter for final con.
sideration until after his return from
the western trip, perhaps two or three
months from now, it is certain that
In that time public feeling will b.
strongly aroused on the score of this
delay.
The evidence given before the
house committee disclosed an intol.
cradle situation in the depar men, If
