There is no such disparity between
French and German numbers, or
CARNATIONS, Notifications or esprit
today rs there was forty-four years
ago today. The Germans have more
soldiers than the French; but they
have undertaken, too, to advance
along a much wider front. They
have aroused Holland and Belgium,
and thus assumed to sweep aside
powers capable of putting near a
million troops in the field. They
have Russia to meet on the east, and
the British sea power to beat back
on the coasts of the North Sea. A
British army transported across the
North Sea. landing under naval pro-
lection, and outfianking the German
Empire itself, would be no more
startling strategy in this war than
was the japanese movement Of
armies to the Yalu and the Lao
tung in the Manchurian war. That
British army pushing its way on to
Berlin while Russia and France
pounded at the eastern and western
divisions of the German power,
would be no more remarkable than
was the Japanese strategy of land
ing at different points and starting
for Mukden on the north and Port
Arthur on the south. British forces
have taken part on long list of
the decisive aa.tlctields of the Cont
nent, from Waterloo to the Crimea;
from the Black Prince to the siege
of Antwerp at the middle IF the last
century.
Germany, postured as she is,
equipped as she is, is probably bet
ter able to face and defend herself
against a continent in arms than
any other power ever was before;
certainly on the face of things she
is. But the France she faces today
is far different France than that
Of forty-four years. ago today. In
and wealth Germany has
gained more in that generation than
France; but in organization and

The City lection.

At the city electh Monday very
little interest was t;en with the ex-
ception Of the refertdum relative to
Sunday closing and lat was carried
by a vote of almdt two to one.
Philip Caselberg wa elected mayor
to succeed himself an H. G. Robin
son and Max Sklowf were elected
aldermen. The Sunay closing has
quite history and Militia would have
been dry Sunday twn some time
ago had it not been 1r the referen-
dunn petition filed efore the ordi-
nance passed by the tty council be-
came law. AS it i. now the first
dry Sunday that Militia has ever
known will be OH tie 10th of this
month-tive days afer the official
canvass Of the ballots
Whether it will wOrl q hardship on
the people Of this community or not
remains to be seen, butit woul[l seem
that it would not Inconvenience a
very large number and those to whom
it may prove a hardship will be the

we'll afford to lose them. We lad
heard it rnmored that farmers and
ranchers coming from distal ce
would not come on Sunday. There
are six other days in which they can
transact business and q saloon ma,
as we'll as a merchant is entitled tb

heard one of the retiring aldermen
say a short time ago "things are
changing and the only thing for us te
do is to keep up with the times.
The rate other towns in the state are
going dry OH Sunday it is very likely
that the change will prove very bene
fetal to this place and at amy rate il
will not lower the morals of the city
any. The referendum vote OH Mon
day showed the city council that the
people of the town was with them
and were willing to stand back OF
anything they did.

Meeting Of Fair Directors.

The Board Of Directors of the Val
ley County Fair Association held u
special meeting Tuesday evening,
March 81. At this meeting Mr.. +. A.
Hauge was appointed committee of
one to ascertain what the various
firms in town intend to give us pre-
miums in the different departments
at the coming, fair. 1t was also deci-
ded that a registered yearling bull of
a value of 500 be given as prize
to the party or parties making the
best agricultural exhibit at the fair
this fall. This competition will be
open to individuals or groups of ind-
viduals, each club not to exceed five
members, who may group together
and have their collections shown un-
der number which, will be furnished
upon application to the secretary. 1t
was decided to send Mr.. II. l.. Sprague
to Malta and Saco to see what could
be done relative to creating an inter-
est in the county fair and to convince
| the people that this is not fair for
Glasgow only, but a fair in which all
OF the county should participate. It
was also decided that no betting on
the races or any other form of gam
bling or any Intoxicating liquors be
tolerated OH the grounds. From the
spirit shown at these meetings and
the reports brought in regarding the
feelings of the people towards the
fair, Valley county can be counted OIL
\to have fair this fall that will be Il
remark able success.
| Arrangements are being made to
have noted agriculturist here for
the purpose Of Judging stock and
grains. of which we want a large eX-
hibit. If this man is brought in we
want to have something for him to do
so that he viii. not feel that he is
wasting his tine in Judging two or
three animals.
We are also arranging to have lee
lures given in the agricultural pavil-
ion regarding the reasons why the
various article; did or did not receive
prizes.

KING WILL CALL A
 MEETING ID SETTLE
 THE IRISH PROBLEM
Asquith to Announce Fact When Amendment Comes Up in the House of
 Commons Today

London. July 2o-'The King has called solution of the Irish problem
 This is the announcement of Premier Asquith is expected to make today when the bill amending the home rule bill comes up again in the House. The prime minister's speech, indicating how the gov ernment purposes dealing with the lords amendments to the amending bill is awaited with deepest anxiety, and it is probable the House will immediately ad- journ debate on the amending bill in- definitely to allow negotiations for set tlement to proceed outside of Parlia- ment
 Premier Asquith has been with the King at Portsmouth throughout the weekend and the Kings anxiety to get the diff culty settled has resulted in the reported decision to call a conference. It is said the conference will meet probably on Tuesday in London. The King will re- ceive the delegates but will not himself preside over the conference
 The ministers are placing great reliance in the persuasive powers of Chancellor Lloyd-George, who has been shunted tenn porarily from his financial duties to as- sist the prime minister in solving the Irish difficulty. Chancellor Georges busi- ness is to smooth the path between na- tionalists and liberals.
 It is understood that the government is willing to go a considerable way in meeting the Carsonite demands, but is hampered by the unyielding attitude of the nationalists.
 The chancellor of the exchequer has conferred several times with John Red mond, the nationalist leader, in an en- deavor to find points of common agree ment MT. Redmond has called con- ference of his party for today to hear a report from Joseph Devlin, member of Parliament for Belfast, who has re- turned from a mission in the north of Ireland This conference may have an important bearing on the negotiations
