price of meat increases, the number
of divorces will decrease" said DR..

TERMS OF THE TREATY
England, is is Said, Will Carry the
Question to the Hague Tribunal for
Settlement.

Washington, Aug. 10.-With lead
ers certain that the House would ac-
cept all Senate amendments to the
measure, and that it would receive
President Taft's approval, the Panama
Canal bill today became diplomatic
question.
In it's present form-and it was be-
lieved that it would become law in
that shape-the bill utterly ignores
the emphatic protests lodged by
Great Britain. Through Counsellor
Innes, charge of the British Embassy,
the London foreign Office asked that
legislation affecting free tolls for Am
erican owned vessels through the canal
and the prohibition against railroad
owned ships, be postponed, at the same
time expressing strong disapproval of
those provisions. That they violated
the HayPuencefote treaty with Am
erica gained canal rights across the
zone was the position Great Britain
indicated.
The State Department refused to
consider the question as diplomatic
one, and merely transmitted all the
correspondence in the case to the Sen
ate, holding the matter legislative
one. The Senate's action last night in
passing the bill, with the free tolls and
the prohibition against railroad own
ed ships and many other stringent
provisions, with every indication that
the measure would be finally enacted
into law in this shape, forecasted ear
w resumption of a diplomatic inter-
change between England and the State
Department. That Breat Britain will
cary the questio nto the Hague Trlb-
unal was considered certain today.
AS adopted by the Senate, the Pana-
ma bill provides.
Exemption from tolls to American
coastwise ships and all American YES
sells engaged in foreign trade.
Prohibition against use of the canal
by railroad owned ships.
Forbids passage through canal to
vessels owned or controlled by persons
or firms in business in restraint OF
trade.
Admits foreign built ships to regis
trv in this country when owned by
Americans and used in foreign trade.
Establishes one-man type OF gov
ernment for the Zone.
Amplifies on the powers OF the In
terstate Commerce Commission to com
mel railroads to dispose of steamship
lines that may possibly be operated
as competitors.

Old, lame, stranded, literally dying
of hunger in Paris, is the once famous
New York beauty, Mrs. Alice Norton.
Even Paris was dazzled by her beauty
for more than passing season. When
she walked down the Champs Elysees,
chaperoned only by her faithful mas
tiff, Mrs. Norton was the cynosure of
eyes. Her marvellous masses Of snow
white hair intensified her radiant beau
ty. When she walked abroad even
women followed in respectful admir-
alton. Her perfect knowledge of
French and German and her strong
will to help her self have not been able
to keep the wolf from the door, and
cruel Paris has crushed her beneath
the wheels of its juggerant.

IMMENSE POTATO CROP
Estimates of Commissioner Maxwell
Show Average Increase for State
Of Twenty Per Cent.
BELTRAM1 CLOSE TO THE TOP

According to reports received by
immigration Commissioner Maxwell,
one of the largest potato crops in the
history of the Minnesota is in pros
pect. His reports come from men in
the fields and in only one county are
the prospects discouraging.
The average increase in yield is
said to be close to twenty per cent.
AS Minnesota produced 26,8O2,948
bushels of potatoes last year, the
1912 increase will reach about s.
100000 bushels. At the average
price received for potatoes last fall
by the. farmers, this will mean an
increase in income for the farTers of
Minnesota of $2,5OO,OOO this year.
Mr.. Maxfield says that while some
OF the increase is due to increased
acreage brought on by the high price
OF potatoes last year, the larger part
Is due to the fact that the production
th1s year will be better. The enc
mics OF the potato have not been per-
nlc1ously active this year and soil.
conditions were never better.
Beltrami and Carlton counties tie
Tor third place in the estimates. both
being conceded an. increase of fiftv
per cent over the production of last

Hot Fight for Bailey's Seat.

Austin, Texas, July 11.--One of
the hottest political battles the Lone
Star state has seen in years is rapidly
approaching a climax. Two weeks
from next Saturday the Democratic
voters of Texas will engage in state
wide primary to determine, first, who
is to succeed Joseph W. Bailey in the
United States senate, and, second,
whether Governor Colquitt shall suc-
coed himself or be retired from office.
At the same time candidates will be
named for lieutenant governor and
all other important state officers, for
judges of the supreme court and court
OF appeals, members of the legisla-
ture and county officers. But so far
as the general public is concerned the
interest is centered almost exclusive
~ in the fight for the senatorship.
Immediately Senator Bailey an
nounced his purpose to retire last
winter the canvass for his seat be-
gan. The followers of William ].
Bryan, who had long fought Mr.. Bal
ley, set out to get the place. Con-
gresham Morris Sheppard of the
First district, admittedly one of the
'ablest members among the younger
Democrats in the house, was chosen
to lead. He started out in determine
ed fashion, but within month his
health gave way and he was compell-
ed to announce his retirement.
