ton the rules were suspended and

makes it unlawful for any property
owner to tap into a sewer without

does not apply when the property is
especially assessed for sewer pur'
poses Upon motion the rules were
suspended and the ordinance was read

member of the finance committee held
out that the bidding was regular. A
resolution was introduced giving the
contract for the deposit of the city
money to the New Knox National
Bank. The resolution was voted
down, Mr.. Salisbury being the only
member to vote in the affirmative.

duced authorizing the city treasurer

clared. The present emperor of Ger
many, after his second visit to Sultan
Abdul Hamid, went to Palestine, Wis
iting first and with some ostentation
the tomb of the celebrated Sultan
Saladin, the opponent Of Richard the
Lion Hearted of England. The Kais
er was roundly scolded in the Eu-
ropean press and holy war was
talked of.
"Soon after the European war
started this summer Turkey called the
Mussulmans to the flag, fearing trou-
ble, and also enjoined light military
service on the Christian soldiers, of
whom, since the Young Turk regime,
there are numbers in the Turkish
army. At the request of the Sultan
the Ameer of Afghanistan sent $780,
600 men under command of Crown
Prince Mehmed Bahadour, to attack
British India, and $4,000 under Bahia
our Jenk to attack Russia. The chief
sheik of the Arabs also joined in the
movement. The sacred flag has not
yet been hoisted. Even if it is, Chris
tians or foreigners residing in Tur
key need have no fear, except of such
violence from lower elements as might
occur in any hostile country. The

No Holy War Proclaimed.
(By Herbert Temple)

London. Dee 10.-I am Informed
bv an intelligent and well-informed
Turk now in this city that no holy
war has been proclaimed to the Mus
sulman world. nor is one likely to he.
"Holv war" is term much abused
in western parlance, and "holy wars
are much rarer than one would think
from reading British and American
newspapers.
"The holy war can only be started
by the raising of the sacred flag of
Mohammed by the Sheik-ul-lslam or
chief of the Islamic faith said my
informant. "This has not been done
I'D to the present time, can give you
positive assurance. | understand the
Sheik-ul-Is was urged by the pro
Germans to raise the sacred flag, but
wisely refused to do so. This is a
political war.
"Since before the conquest of Con-
stantinople by the Turks in 1452 the
sacred flag has never been raised
but once. This was when the Sultan
Mahmoud Ali, grandfather of the
present ruler, resolved to be rid OF
his vicious Janizaries. or household
guards. He sent messages to this
tody. declaring that the sacred fiae
had been unfurlcd at the court of Sui
tan Ahmed. The Janizaries promptly
answered the call They entered the
gate singly or in small groups and
were promptly ard without ra.shar
killed by select corps of execution
ers stationed there by Mahmoud Al
But it is a point Of Mohammedaf
law chat the sacred flag, once un-
furled, cannot be furled until 10000
heads are forfeited There were bnt
- 900 Janizaries. To carry out the
letter Of The law the Sultan had p.
zoe headstones broken down frcn
HUssumans' graves. This famous in
cident in Turkish history is known
as 'Vakai Hayrie.'

CHOLERA CURE FOUND,
DECLARES JOHN ISAAC

Brawley News; John Isaac, the
Brawley hog king, whose drove CT
Red Durocs on his ranch in No, s dis
triet attracts every visitors attcn-
tion and evokes admiration, declares
there is very little cholera in the I'm
perial Valley, and small danger from
il if the hogs are properly fed and
riven common sensible attention. Mi.
Isaac is supporting the progressive
program of the Hog Raisers' Assocl-
alton, in combating disease and co
operating against dangers, but ne
has no patience with the book learned
log experts from the university.
IF a Chinaman talked OF hogs,
said Mr.. Isaac today, q would listen
closely and heed his advice, for the
Chinese had developed the pcrcine in
Gustry to large proportions while our
white ancestors were playing tag
among the leafy boughs. They are
thousands of years ahead of the rest
of the world in experience and have
discarded and forgotten more than
we naughty moderns know of hogs.
Tell me all about pig said the
reporter; what to do for him when
he gets the whooping cough
That's just it" said the genial
r7nchman; its more whooping cough
than cholera. Real cholera, as | can
rrove by Bert Steele here, who is
working for me and who knows 4
great deal about pigs, first attacks the
Zig, strong hogs and kills them in
five or six hours. The sporadic disease
here, which we call cholera, first at
tacks the weak, puny hogs, especial
" the immature pigs, and they linger
q week to three months. | have stud
led the hog from practical stand
noint. / believe I've solved the chol-
era problem. For the benefit Of
others, the News is welcome to tell
about it. The panacea which l sug
gest is worth a pot of money to any
Log raiser.
"When a hog is found to be off his
