Bulls took a very optimistic view of

They regard the inflamed war senti-

Great confidence is expressed In oats.

STRAW LIDS FAIL
TO MAKE RETREAT
Battle Is on Between Comfort
and Fashion and Victory
Is in Doubt.

Each year the number of brave spir-
its who resent the false DEGREES OF
Dame Fashion and who wish TO show
their contempt for man-made conVen-
tons, increases and this year Rock
Island harbors a larger number than
ever.
Sept 1 has passed. Several years
ago for a man TO strut proudly about
the streets with his straw browning
his head after that date would have
been an indication that he was de-
mented or else too poor to buy some
other headgear.
But not so now. While funeral
pyres have been lighted and many a
dark brown specimen of mating which
several months ago brought three and
a half shekels from a mans jeans,
has gone up in smoke. there are a
number of heroes, embellished with
orange-tinged creations, who are hop
ing TO stretch the time of grace to
Sept. 10.
The day of the hat busting" is
passed. Years ago, friends of the man
who ventured forth after September
had arrived bedecked with a straw
would have crushed the lid upon him.
But now there is a question: who
is the fool: he who lets fashion die
tate or he who listens to comfort"

George Won L. Meyer, secretary of
the navy in the Taft administration,
who was on the Mauretania, in dis
cussing the situation, said:
This war has demonstrated the
vital necessity of England having kept
up her fleet. 1t is just as important
as it has been for England to keep
open the lanes of commerce in the
Atlantic that We keep open the lanes
of commerce in the Pacific.
Our people should not belittle a
policy which will enable the navy to
have building program of four bat
tlaShipS a year for the next four
years, and in so doing it will guaran-
to the Panama canal, and an open sea
for commerce under all circum stances

PLOW COMPANY
TO RUN AS USUAL
Local Concern Is Not Affected
Seriously by the War
Condition.

Although rumors have been current
for the last week that the Rock Island
Pillow company was to close down its
shops indefinitely today. such stories
were denied this morning by an official
OF the concern when talking to re-
porter of The Argus.
The officer of the company stated
that the business of the concern was
progressing nicely and that a large
number of orders were on hand. which
meant that the factory would continue
TO run as in the past.
The story circulated was that on &C
count of the war that the cOmpany's
foreign orders had been cut down nee
essitating a period of idleless.

Il She Recover, Cnse Against As
saiIant May Re Dropped.

Upper Marlboro. July 11.-George T.
Hart, in jail here on the charge of
assault and battery with intent to kill
as the result OF shooting his wife. Mrs.
Nellie America Hart, at his fathers
home near Berwyn. Prince George
County, Sunday afternoon last proba-
bly, will be released on bail early next
week
James c. Rogers Of HyattsviIle. rep
resenting Hart. stated this afternoon
that he would consult States Attorney
Clarence NJ. Roberts today with the OBJ
ject of securing a hearing for Hart be-
bore Justice of Peace J. A. Ridgeley.
He declared that II can be established
that the shooting OF Mrs. Hart was ac-
cidental. He stated that the published
statement that Hart's defense would be
insanity was news to him.
Mrs. Harris condition continues to
improve. In the case OF her recovery Il
is probable that Hart will be released
from custody. as it Is said to be doubt
full whether the wife will testify
against him, and as she was the only
witness to the shooting. no case can
be made against Hart.

statement made by him yesterday in

that taNicah and hotel companies were

Replying TO this Mr.. syme says:
If the taxicab companies attack this
regulation, 1t is my opinion that they will
meet the same fate they did when they
attacked the Jurisdiction of the Public
Utilities Commission over them. That
case was properly decided against them
The decision by the Court Of Appeals
made some years ago allowing the hotels
free use of space in their immediate vi
cinity for carriages has been used to
give special privilege to some of the COM
panies engaged in the transportation
business 10 the exclusion Of others. Not
one Of the present judges Of that court
was party to that decision. and its
propriety has always been seriously
questioned by the bar. The regulation
as it has been adopted is prompted by
conditions that did not exist ten years
ago.
Before formulating the regulation in
regard TO the dazzling motor headlights
and sidelights on automobiles. / talked
with at least a hundred members OF the
police force. Nearly all of them had
had some connection with accidents
caused by the binding lights. The front
glass can be frosted by soap or stale
beer in such way that the light will
not dazzle pedestrians. will certainly
recommend that the regulation be en-
forced with the greatest strictness"
