Italian Breakdown Imperative in Conse-
% g,quAnce Of Present War With Turkey
England Aroused.

Paris, Jan. 24.-lt was Senerally
agreed here today that clash with
s Italy over the seizure Of the 20 mcm-
K .,ers Of the Turkish Red Cross had
IN averted, but popular Indignation
ainst the Italian government had
S1t subsidized. Unless the expected
3$ot from Rome, promises the full
5$llment of all OF Frances demands,
Grained relations between the two
nuntries may result
sS The fact that Italy refused TO ac-
cept Frances assurance that the
Turks were bona fide members OF the
Red Cross until after the prisoners
.tad been given q rigorous question
ing by board OF Examiners. was
generally regarded as ''brazen in
suit"
The Lantern today pointed out that
J no country could be regarded as
friendly if it refused to accept state
nents made in good faith by the
french government.
Rome. Jan. 24.-Realizing that
ny other course would result in an
armed clash with France, Italy to-
day decided to release the 90 Turk
ish Red Cross nurses aboard the
French liner Manouba, off Cagliari.
The government had received in
formation from Paris that the French
ambassador was about to be recalled
and that instructions had been CIV
en- to the commander-in-chief Of the
French navy to be prepared for an
Invasion OF the Mediterranean.
With the Turkey struggle on her
hands, Italy was in no condition to
rush into war with France and a
back down was imperative. 1t was
reported today that an official note
had already been sent to Paris an
nouncing that the Turks would be
released as an 'act Of homage but
without prejudice 10 the points in
dispute.
Some doubt was expressed here to-
day as to whether France would con-
slider the note sufficiently apologize
10 recompense for the insult which
she believed her flag had suffered.
London. Jan. 24.-Reports were
circulated here today that England
has failed to demand an explanation
from Italy for the seizure Saturday
OF the British steamer Africa because
the home government believed in
The event Of trouble, King George
and Queen Mary. who are now in the
Mediterranean, would be embarrass-
cd. While it was believed there were
sufficient British battleships in the
Mediterranean 10 protect the royal
couple in any event. it was recog-
nized on all sides that it would be
most discomfiting for George and
Mary to be around the scene of a
clash.
Whether the presence of the King
and queen in the Mediterranean had
anything to do with the matter. il was
pointed out today that England has
broken all presidents in not calling
upon Italy for 4 speedy explanation.
Heretofore the Lion has been the
first to roar whenever any of his al
legged prerogatives were not recog-
nized.

Must Notify Land Office.

Notices are being sent out from the
interior department to all homestead
ers who have not patented their en-
tries, that under the provisions of the
three-year homestead bill recently
passed they must notify the local land
Office by registered mail within one
hundred and twenty days after June
9th of what they intend to do respect
ing final proof. The provisions .oi
this measure do not apply to reclama-
ton entries made under the old law
requiring five years residence. Final
proof may be completed at once if the
homesteader has been on the land
three years and has complied with the
general homestead laws.-Ex:
That three year law is probably one
OF the best laws for the homesteader
that was ever passed, in several ways,
one Way being that the man with
little means can take leave Of alb.
sence each year to earn money with
which tn make improvements, and can
deed the land in three instead of five
years and secure money on il to hep
develop il or sell it to someone who
has the means.

Some Bali Players.

MeSsrs Jerry Ryan, Robt. Anderson
and j. NJ. Jusek, who are holding
down homesteads south of this place
spent the whole of last week with us,
assisting the local team in playing
ball with the visiting teams. To say
that these boys PLAY good ball, is
putting it mild. They play mighty
good ball in any position you MAJ
put them in and are in the game al
the time.
Anderson as pitcher and Ryan be
hind home base constitute a battery
equal to the best Of them. In the
game with Murdo, Anderson had the
situation under good control all the
time and had Murdo's heavy stickers
eating out of his hand every time he
entered the pitchers box.
Wood quit the weeks series cham
pion in this way; White River won
over Winner, Murdo beat White
River and Wood shut Murdo out.
These artists have signed on with
the local team for the balance of the
season and when any of the other
teams in the surrounding country
think they have anything on us, we
are in excellent shape to show them
that they are badly mistaken.
The excellent bail park with the
best grand sta / in the west, race
track, etc, which we now ave,should
make this point a sort of headquarters
and meeting place for ball games,
race meets, etc, for the surroundir &
territory.

AmpI. Rains Insure Good Crops.

South Dokota, and especially the
western and newer parts OF the state,
is again coming into her own III thr
way OF good crop yields, after two
years of dry weather that put "a crimp
in the farmers of not only this state,
but also several other states which
boast that they always raise good
crops.
From all over the state come re-
ports OF bountiful rains within the
past two weeks, just at the time when
they are the most beneficial and are
needed the most. Small grain was at
the stage when good rain insured Ia
bumper crop, alfalfa had been cut and
the rains boosted it well along toward
the second cutting, corn and potatoes
have advanced in their development
so rapidly as to make it almost i'm
possible to keep track of their pro.
gress, and pasture and hay meadows
are in the best of condition. And the
beauty of it is. the good reports in
clude the whole state.
These good conditions not only
benefits the farmers. but also everyone
else who has interests in the state.
Right here in Meliette county whore
very little farming has been done on
account Of its being just opened to-
settlement, the good prospects VII
bring us just what we need most:
people TO settle on and develop the
land. men to make homes for then

their eye on the state and keep in
