Turkish town of Tushi further north
is now open to the advance of the
Montenegro army.
An Army of 100000.
Constantinople, (Wireless from
Steamer in the Dardanelles to Kus-
tendje Rumania), Oct 11.-No fewer
than 100000 Turkish troops from Asia
Minor will, it is estimated, be con-
centrated within a week in European
Turkey. This will bring the effective
force of the Turkish army there up to
four hundred thousand men.
Turkish officials say that the day of
trial has found the military depots full
of stores and the army equipment
complete and of good quality. If the
Bulgarians are counting on the super
iority of their organization and the
greater rapidity with which their army
can be modified to give them a ma
te-ia1 advantage, they will, according
to Turkish officers, receive a disagree
able surprise
The Ottomans for months past have
been gradually strengthening their de-
lenses and concentrating troops in the
important zone comprising Adriano-
lie and Kirk .Kilisseh, sdss north of
the Bulgarian frontier. Since the gen.
eral mobilization was ordered a great
stream of men has been pouring into
the district at the rate latterly Of

New Year has fairly commenced,
and The Average Young Man has
Sworn Off using tobacco and is an
enthusiastic patron of the Water
Wagon. He has thrown his little
package of Makin's into a snow
bank and bought case of Pop with
his Checks. (In week he will be
searching the snow bank and slip
back few seats on the Wagon
In the interim he will eat matches,
tooth picks and hitching- posts,
while his friends will think it is
hydrophobia. BY the middle of the
month he can, and undoubtedly will
punish enough of the weed to more
than compensate for lost time, and
the Water Wagon will look as de-
serted as a Haunted House. But
while he is Denying himself he will
talk huently on the pernicious eff
fects of tobacco and spiel temper
ance in a manner to make Ten
Nights in a Bar Room sound like
an alluring Brewery ad., and in
terms as highly colored and ford
as the charms on a paper color box,
he will discourse to his Girl about
Economy.

THE FUTURE

The domestic animals of Pierce
county are valued at $2,400, 900.
The facts given by the Wisconsin
University bulletins showing the
amount of butter and cheese an
nually produced are apt to be mis-
leading from the fact that large
quantities of milk in the later years
have been shipped by rail to the
adjoining great cities. This milk
value would not appear in the sta
tistics of the creameries or cheese
factories. Nevertheless, while
Pierce county has lost two cheese
factories in the last five years, it
has gained five creameries. The
amount of b ees e produced in
Pierce County has been decreased
in that period early 100000

STATE COMMITTEE
TO MEET TONIGHT
ACTION MAY BE TAKEN o MAKE
PRIMARY PLAN CONFORM
TO NEW LAW.

The State Democratic Executive
committee with Chairman J. Taylor
EIlyson presiding. will meet tonight
In Murphy's hotel at O'Clock. Re-
ports will be heard from different sec
lions of the State, the campaign Will
be thoroughly discussed and any mat
ters which may need adjustment will
come up for attention.
1t is presumed that the COMMITTEES
will take some action with regard to
amendments to the party primary
plan SO as to conform to the new pri-
mary law. At the last convention a
plan drawn up by State Chairman Ell
Tyson was considered and sent back
to the State committee with instruc-
lions TO adopt such plan as would
conform with the new law. The only
important respect In which the plan
differs from the new law Is that II
specifies that only white Democrats
shall take part In party primary
The law makes no such distinction
but would admit the vote Of a MEM
Der of another party with a pledge to
support the ticket The consideration
of the matter is likely to bring or
spirited debate.
