 Before the great agricultural and conservation congress ot Minnesota last month MT. Hill outlined his plan of relieving the hard credit conditions of the farmers in the United States. He has been looking out for the. bus mess end of their welfare. as for many years he has by word and deed urged the propaganda for the reform of farming methods. As of agriculture, if he should be invited to take and arrept that post. his uSc- fulncss might be enhanced even beyond that of say. forty. "Tama Jim" Wilson's.

DREAD TCHATALJk.

There have been many r"a>hiiS advanced for tn" delay ul he al- lies in resunning tn" war against Turkey. the temper of whose pcn- pIe has from the first mad" any yielding tn the demands or the victors practically out of the uuestion. One day it was the at litude of Austria: the next it was Russia that was feared, and on the third Ruumania demanding a slice out of Bulgarian soil. The real reason, as admitted by mlll- tary experts. however, has been further south. Stretched across the narrow peninsula leading to Constantinuple loom the Tcha- talia forts, and the guns that were the cause of the armistice and the peace negotiations are now the cause of the delay.
 The Bulgarians and their all lies are brave soldiers. They have fought with a dash and an eG- durance that has surprised the world. But evidently even their own leaders question whether they are equal to Tchatalja, which army engineers of all countries have declared one of the strong est natural positions in the world. There are no opposing heights on which to mount cannon. There is nothing to do but try to storm well-nigh impregnable positions at the point of the bayonet in rushes over exposed Impressions against which annihiliating fire can be directed. The forts stretch from sea to sea. and there is no getting around them. Constanti- nODle and Asia Minor are behind and there is no starving the de- lenders out.
 In the face of this ugly problem it is not surprising that the Bull garian course in the renewal of the war that is expected in a few days will be to concentrate first on Adrian"ple. That city takrn-- and it should fall without any terrible resistance after it's long starvation treatment --pearr nc- eOtiatiunS would again be pnSsi- ble. But if the war went on. the allies would have new triumph to buoy their men up for the far more serious business al Tchatal- ia, as we'll as adding cunsid- crable fore to their number in the release of the army that has carried on he siege.
 The allies dread defeat. It would invite intervention as well as put a new aspect on the mill itary situation. And their lead CTS are too good soldiers not to know the the chances are against them in assault upon Tchatalia.

MIR. HILL FOR TIE CABINET.

Mr.. James J. Hill. the maker of great railroads and the "en- pire buiIder' of the Northwest, is being "bOOmed'' for the Secre- iaryship of agriculture. of late years, as Mr.. Hill has become dis engaged from his wonderful rail way and development projects, he has given his mind chiefly to the problems of making two bush els of grain grow where but one grew before. Manifestly, if he should go into the cabinet of President Wilson on the plat form of reducing the cost of living by this means, and should make goud,' the coming Democratic administration would be set down as one of the greatest in the his tory of our government. and Mr. Hill would deserve nor" of his frllow-countrymen than all the politicians.
 There is nothing impossible in this program of the man who 'ihinks in continents The farm CTS of the United States are the most backward of any civilized country on earth.

There is no doubt as to the final Hote.;
The chief question that arises Is as
TO the time when that vote viii be-
taken. Consid deration Of that question
involves a PSYCHE illogical study Of
Woodrow wilson and that is the prin-
cipal thing which is now occupying
many senators, both republicans and
democrats. There has been a curious
lapse OF interest In the tariR bill
throughout the country during the last
few weeks. Various explanations are
offered for this. One is that the coun-
try, being satisfied that the bill is q
substantial revision downward, has ap-
proved 1t on faith and is going about
its regular business patiently await
ing the final, enactment Of the measure.
From the republican side or the
senate, there comes q different 0piri-
ion, however. The republicans are,
Of course, keenly interested in having

Of calamity. Il is vital to the hope Of
the standpatters to have commercial
upheaval and business disaster follow
the enactment Of a low tariff bill.

house and their scattered adherents

business of the government, the great

about abolishing the Commerce Court.
With characteristic n incompetence.
they have now merely cut on the ap-#5
priation for the court without enacting

merce Court, while still legally In

many important cases. has no money
with which to transact Its business.

that the president has been extremely

Investigation. N
These republi licans credit the presi-

stands very well that the thought Of

NEGRO ATTACKS GIRL
When He is ldestifiei Mob Seeks to

Lynch Him.
Sharon. Pa, Oct 21.-Residents OF
this town are up in arms ovel the at
tack made upon Miss Curwin Kemery,
daughter of w. NJ. kemery. b. glgan-
tic negro. 1t is fearS that tynching
may be attempted.
Miss Kemery was walking home
from work when she was attacked by
the negro. She was dragged to dark
spot along the Shenango river bank,
choked senseless and assaulted. She
was in the negros power almost two
hours. The attack took .Slace within
100 yards of the police station.
Officer I.ansdowne arrested George
McDavid. twentysiX years old, negro
porter at the Colonial hotel. He was
taken to the girls home and identified
by her as her assailant. 1t was neces-
sary for four men to restrain the girls
father from numbering the negro.
Kemery snatched a big knife from the
kitchen table and attempted to attack
McDavid with it.
McDavid had hardly been placed in
a cell when the Jail was surrounded
by several hundred men and boys,
who had previously assisted in a
search for the girl. They demanded
that the negro be turned over to them
for summary punishment.
Ropes We're brought out, and it was
only after the police had threatened to
shoot the first man who made move
that the mob dispersed.

WILL CURE CANCER
FREE WITH RAD|UM
Plans to Open Clinics in Bal.
timOra and New York.

Baltimore, Nd, Oct. 27.-That the
free radium clinic to be conducted by
DR.. Howard A. Kelly here will be
closely affiliated eventually with the
Johns Hopkins Medical school is the
plan of DR.. Kelly.
He so expressed himself in discus
sing the organization of the National
Radium Institute and the plan to open
two free radium clinics for the cure OF
cancer-Ona in Baltimore, the other in
New York. He said:
Il am very sanguine over the out
look of the radirm clinics. 1t will be
necessary. however, TO erect a special
building for the radium clinics, one
large enough to contain about 100
beds. Before this can be done further
endowment will be necessary, but
while it win require considerable
money, | am confident that it will be
supplied.
Before the general clinic can be
opened it will lie necessary to get at
least ten grams-about $1,000,00O
worth--more of radium. There is on
hand now in the neighborhood of $780,
900 worth, and this will be required
for the treat ent of present pressing
cases.
Patients are coming from all parts
of the country, but before the radium
treatment can be made general the ad-
ditional anrA0- tbs mineral must
be obtained, and the special radium
building should be erected. l cannot
see how this can possibly come about
in less than three years
