War Between Italy And Tlr-
; key.

Italy has declared war against
Turkey.
For several days war clouds
have been gathering. Last Sat
urday afternoon the italian gov
eminent sent to the porte an ul-
tim.ntum, giving twentyfour
hours for full compliance by
Turkey with the Italian demands.
Instead of a compliance, Turkey
sent conciliatory note, hoping
that this action might prevent
open rupture and make possible
an arbitration of diplomatic con-
sideration of matters in contro-
versy. Italy, however. refused
to accept any compromise and
this afternoon formally and eff
cially notified Turkey and the
world that differences between
the two countries must be settled
by an appeal to arms.
Formal notification to the
United States that a state of war
exists between Italy and Turkey
was given to the State Depart
ment late Saturday by the ltai-
ian charge d'affaires, Mobile Lag
cora Del Marchesi Negrotto Cam
hiaso. This action paves the
way for the forthcoming procla-
nation of neutrality by this gov
eminent.
The official notification of TIA
" carries out the Hague conven-
tions of 1907 STIMULATING that
neutral powers must be notified
of the declaration of war.
It is reported that the Italian
warships began the lombard
ment Of Tripoli at 2 o'clock Sat-
urday afternoon. The single Ca
BILE connecting Malta with Trip
oil is blocked with official mes
sages. A reliable private mes
sage from Tripoli however, says
that the Italian blockade began
Friday at sunset, and a lombard
ment was decided upon for Sat.
urday. There is apprehension
of a rising among theArabs. All
Europeans are safe.

A Walk Or Hospital Which?

All this week the teachers and
school children have been wad-
ing in water and mud from their
homes to the school house. Last
Monday majority of both teach
ers and pupils sat in ths school
rooms all day with wet feet and
in many cases with skirts wet to
their knees as most of them &c
tually waded in water to their
shoe tops going from the depot
to the school house.
Such experiences bring on bad
colds followed by pneumonia or a
bad cough gradually drifting in
to consumption. Which would
add the most to the reputation of
our town, some good walks and
a consequent record for good
health, or no walks and the teach
ers' reports to the school authori-
ties showing bad attendance on
account of sickness?
Which would be the best few
hundred dollars spent in build
ing walks, or several thousand
spent in erecting a hospital for
the care of children growing up
with injured health caused by
sitting in school all day with wet
feet?
We had something to say on
this walk question several weeks
ago and invited anyone who was
interested and had an opinion to
express to let us hear from them,
but so far no one has responded.
Can it be that our progressive
citizens are not awake to the i'm
portance of this matter? Many
will keep silent until some plan
is arranged and work actually in
progress; then they will raise an
objection and refuse to do any
thing to help because the plan
does not meet with their approx
al and will have a lot to say
about what should have been
done. Now is the time to talk
and if you don't speak up now
and express yourself and get busy
you should not raise an objection
after plans are completed and
work commenced.

The Highway Scouts on
Their Way.

Notwithstanding che rainy
day Monday the scouting party
sorthe proposed Bristol-to Wash
ington Highway left Bristol on
chedule time reaching Abing-
don about IL o'clock, Chilhowie
about d 80, Marion about 4.
On account Of the extremely
rainy day, the mud around town
and the consequent small crowd
of people that would be in attend
ance In Rural Retreat, it was de-
cided to meet the scouts on the
rock road and call off the meet
ing at this place, thereby enao-
ling the party TO reach Wythfo-
willie in time for supper and speak
ing there.
Quite a party of influential cit
izens Of our town left here IN the
late afternoon and joined the
scouts at the rock road accom-
naming them to Wytheville. THIS
party got back to town about
midnight and report quite an en-
4husiastic meeting at Wythevilie'
In spite Of the Indictment wealth
Sr the meeting was we'll attend
ed and much interest manifested.
We are sorry indeed that the
weather would not permit the
assembling of q good crowd here
TO welcome these gentlemen, as
we had planned to give them .
warm reception thereby Justify
ing them in speaking . good
word for the cabbage town all
the way along their route.
We are pleased to note the en-
thwsiasm OF our most prominent
people with regard to this meet
ing. and we therefore hope that
wo will be able TO arrange amees-
ing for, representatives OF this
movement for this town at some
date In the near future.
II an arrangement could be
made by which this proposed
Bristol-to- Washington Highway
would leave the rock road at
Hroseclose and follow the grade
of the railroad, passing through
Rural Retreat and getting back
TO the rock road by way OF Stuart
Etter's, Oden Neff's the Brown
farms and st paups Church, it
would not only give them q good
grade for the road bed but would
add greatly to the value OF a lot
of already valuable property be-
tween Groseclose and st. Paul,
besides giving the people of Ru-
raj Retreat much more direct
road and much better grade to
Wytheville and Marion.
Some such idea as this should
appeal strongly to the property
owners along the proposed route
as no one would be as greatly
benefited as the ones across whose
farms such q road would run.
We should think q wide awake
farm owner who is alive to his
own interests would be willing
and anxious to not only give the
right of way for q good wide
road bed through his farm, but
would also be willing to do lib
oral part toward the construction
of such q road as it would add
many more dollars to tie value
Of his farm than he would be
expected to contribute.
II our people sit down and do
nothing until this route is def
,nitely decided upon, it will then
be too late, but if the proper
.ty owners along the route Of the
best grade will come forward at
once and express their willing
ness to do . part toward the con-
.struction of a road on the proper
grade through their property,
something can be accomplished.

PEACE DEPENDS
ON D|Az' ACTION
Agreemement Takes Effect
on His Resignation.
PACT SIGNED AT NIGHT

Commissioners Meet at Juarez and
Attach Signatures to Document by
the light of Automobile tamps-En-
voys Hug Each other in the Joy
Which the Occasion Brought.
Juarez, Mex, May 23.-If President
DiaZ and Vice President Corral resign
by June the conditional peace treaty
signed here Sunday night will au-
thentically become the final peace
pact.
If they continue in office after June
] the treaty will expire and Francis
co |. Madero and his troops will re-
sumo fighting.
The formal signing of the condi-
tional treaty by representatives of
Diaz and Madero was attended by a
picturesque scene.
AT 10 O'Clock Sunday night four au-
tomobiles, carrying three representa-
tives each of Diaz and Madero, dashed
through the streets of Juarez to the
customs house. For some reason this
building was locked.
The autos were then formed into a
semi-circle across the street and their
lights were focused on the entrance
of the customs house.
The Diaz and Madero representa-
tives got their heads together twenty
feet apart in separate parties and pc
rused the articles of the conditional
treaty by the auto lamps. When it
was found that both parties accepted
the terms of the pact Francisco |. Ma
dero furnished a fountain pen for the
signers At this juncture a street car
stopped between the auto lights and
the peace ENJOYS for several minutes
The newspaper correspondents light
ed matches and by their fare the con
ditional peace treaty was signed.
Then each of the na-aee ~.s~yA
hugged each of the other men in the
JOY which the occasion brought. Gro.
tesque shadows fell on tAe walls OF
the customs house during this pro
ceeding and the sounds of back slap
ping, which accompanied the hugging
resounded through the darkened and
deserted streets.

LEVY BARRED FROM CLUB
Another New York Legislator Ex-
cluded From Metropolitan.

Washington, May 23.-Jefferson M.
Levy, newly elected representative in
congress from the Thirteenth New
York district New York city,, has
failed of admittance to the Metropoli-
tan club here thereby sharing the fate
of Representative Martin w. Littleton
of New York and making the second
New York congressman barred from
the organization since the beginning
of the vstra session of oons rc19.
The reason ascribed for the rejec-

Jew. The same minority members
of the governing board objected to his
election who several weeks ago OBJ
jected to Mr.. Littleton because he was
self made man."
