Fight Over Mileage Allowance

Second in intensity to the fight over garden seed is that centering in the an- nual proposal to abolish the mileage al- lowance of senators and congressman. The total mileage bill of the government amounts to over s150,000 each year.
 The mileage allowance is an old and up- to-date sacred institution. In the early days the members received 20 cents a mile each way to pay the expenses of the journey to and from the nations capital
 The statesman came by stage coach and on horseback and the amount then was certainly not unreasonable In these days of fast trains, the mileage amount re- mains the same and all efforts to cut it down have been unavailing. 1t is con- sidered by most of the members as ad- ditional remuneration for their services It is unequally distributed, however, and in this lies the secret of much of the op- position. member from the far west draws several hundred dollars, while members from nearby states get very lt- tie out of the system. We will have the usual debate with the usual result-mile- age will not be abolished.

Annual Battleship Contest

The battleship fight in the House is likewise an annual affair. There is a ''no-battleship" group which seeks to strike from the naval appropriation bill any authorization for an increase in the navy. The other factions are known as 'one-battleship men,, battleship men and "big-navy men" John L. Bur nett of Alabama is. for instance a "one- battleship man. and the member from the Seventh has frequently opposed any ship at all.
 This year the naval bill carries an ap- propriation for two battleships. Last year. after spirited fight the appropriation was held down to one ship. The fight this year is yet to come. For a while last year it looked like the 'no-battleship'' crowd might win. but MT. Underwood finally stepped in and made a speech fav- bring one batteship and it was author ized. Forecasters declare that one will be the limit this year. All the New York papers are strong for big navy, and

San Francisco. July 25.-Registration
for the California primaries closes at
midnight tonight. Indications are that
the final figures will show a grand total
even larger than that recorded In 1917
for the last presidential election. which
almost. without exception. draws out q
larger vote than the congressional and

lieutenant governor, have also placed
themselves by petition on the tickets
of both the old-line parties--thc repub-
lican and democratic.
Still other factors in the results will
be the many important initiative ard

of Castor Calmette. editor of the

The principal argument OF MaItre

been that his client was driven to
shoot NJ. Calmette thru fear that two
letters. of which she was aware would
be published by W. Calmette and the
secrets of her inner life thereby made
public.
This argument 1t is said, will be
reduced to nothing by the reading Of
the letters, which Nine. Gueydan re-
luctantly gave over to Maitre Labort

pie responsibility for the assassina-
tions Of .Archduke Francis Ferdinand
and his wife at Sarayevo, has been
presented to Belgrade. IT demands
satisfaction with forty Eight hours.
The almost universal opinion In the
Europeans capitals is that the Servlan
government cannot comply with such
humiliating terms as are set forth in
the ultimatum since compliance would
be tantamount TO an admission of
Servia's guilt. The Russian govern :
ment already Is seeking an extension of
time for Servia.

The efforts OF Europe diplomacy.
should the powers fail to avert the
threatened war. will be devoted to
localizing it. Montenegro has indi-
Gated her readiness to support Servia
in the event Of an Austrian attack.
This certainly would plunge the whole
Of the Balkan into hostilities. AUS
tria counts on the neutrality of her al
lies, Germany and Italy, but with the
possibility Of Russian Intervention on
behalf of Servia, Austria would run
great risks of risings among her own
Slav population. A fact much COM
mented upon by the European news
papers is that Austria has chosen a
moment for the issuing Of her ultima
tum when President Poincare Is alb
sent from France and two of the Ball
kan preniers are abroad.
The Servian government is with
holding publication of the text of the
ultimatum in Belgrade.
Against the forts and Austrian gum
boats on the Danube. Belgrade could
not hold out twenty four hours and
it is rumored in diplomatic circles here
that the Servian government is prepar-
ing to retire from the capital into the
interior. probably to Nisch or Uskub.
According to Berlin reports, Ger
many will not permit interference by
any third party in the event of Aus
tro-Servian hostilities. 1t is reported
that President Poincare of France will
abandon his proposed Scandinavian
tour on account Of the trouble.

No surprise was caused here by the
communication published in the Of

by the ultimatum addressed to Servia
by Austria Hungary and that Russia
could not remain Indifferent to the

It was believed in Servia that the

Austria would suffer anything rather

completed all assessment matters.
The discovery was made that Butler
county was the only county which last
year completely ignored the orders Of
the state In the matter of valuation Of
all property and levied taxes on the
assessors figures before equalization.
This cheated the state cut OF about
$4,000. In Audubon and Hardin also
erbrs were made which deprived the
state Of some taxes.
