BRITISH OVERSEAS JOURNEY A
BIG SUCCESS

London, Aug. 19.-The first men
ton of the British overseas expedition
by officials came today. But it was
tantalizingly deficient in actual in
formation inasmuch as the location
of the expedition, the number of men
engaged or the time when it was
started was withheld. The official
statement, issued by the war bureau,
simply read.
''The embarkation, transportation
and Decentralization of the British ex-
peditionary army, men as well as
stores and munitions, was carried out
with the greatest precision along the
lines planned many months ago by
the war Office. There was not a sin

What does England want?
Germany does not fight for her
self alone. With our fate is bound up
the fate of other countries. Political
factionalism has disappeared. In this
war it is an inner moral force that
drives us forward. Although our mo-

has had great success. A nation

N. Y. WATCHES FOOD PRICES TO
KEEP THEM DOWN

New York, Aug, Predetermined
to force dealers to keep prices at a
reasonable level for all foodstuffs,
Mayor Mitchell today turned the en-
tire police force into huge inves-
tigating committee with instructions
to canvass every retail store in the
city, getting prices on meats, fish,
vegetables and staple groceries.
Actual marketing conditions, phys
ical facts of supply and uniformity
of prices will be probed and as each
policeman reports the figures will be
tabulated at a central Office. Upon
the showing thus made will be based
a program of constructive action.
Criminal proceedings against those
merchants who have been boosting
prices on the pretext of the European
war will follow.

Southeast Missouri Poets.

When Harvey Burgess tunes his Tyre
The music gods send down their fire,
And from the lifting strings there flows
A melody that swells and grows
Into inspired, eostatic muse
That overshadows all his news.
When John P. Campbell lifts his pipes
And chortles forth in gladstone song,
The printer man sets up the types
And never gets letter wrong
The very hills resound with glee;
The rills, they ripple to the sea,
The birds carol up in the tree,
And all its branches gently sway;
That's how it feels that's John P.
way.
Old Eli D., but seldom tries
To ride Pegasus to the skies,
But when he mounts his rhymic steed
The folks around, they all take heed,
For words and meter fit so plain
We find an AXE without pain.
"Bill-yum'' Lacey's style of verse;
A trifle "risque"-i might be worse;
Is philosophic, edged with wit,
And never fails to make chit"
All Of these bards deceive their looks;
They're not the type we see in books,
But jolly, busy, well-fed men
Who always get a. hair cut when
They need it. And, again,
They view the world with merry eyes,
Nor yet affect sedate disguise.

IRONTON MO. THURSDAY, FEBRUARY H. 1914 NUMBER SO.

Some of them seem to half believe
they are telling the truth. The re-
ports that come from all over the
country prove, however, that such
argument is pure buncombe,
The literacy test is the provision in
the immigration bill that proved to be
the bone of contention. Representa-
tives whose constituencies are largely
foreign born tried hard to amend
out of the bill the provision that re-
quires that all aliens that are admitted
shall be able to read or write in some
language. There was great difference
of opinion as to whether this pro-
vision would add materially to the
effectiveness of the law. A majority
were of the opinion that there should
be some effective way to exclude GER
tain Objectionable aliens. 1t is to be
hoped that this measure, when finally
enacted into law, will.accomplish this.

In a recent issue of the Globe
Democrat is printed the following
editorial, which I commend to the
attention of the tariff standpatters
who are forecasting (and desiring?)
financial disaster under the lately en-
ected Democratic measures:
The steel trust mills are resuming
with increased forces, under the new
tariff law, which may have been what
was being waited for. 1t will be re-
membered that Mr.. Carnegie, at the
hearings before the House Committee
on Ways and Means in 1909, testified
that the trust would really prefer
free trade. 1t is the smaller and in
dependent steel and iron concerns
which will feel the force of foreign
competition the most.
That the trusts, born of and nur-
tured by, high tariff, welcomes the
tearing down of the bulwark which
made them impregnable to COM
petitive assault is most remarkable
assumption. If the smaller concerns"
still need the nursing bottle, it seems
to me 'twould be public benefit for
them to go into some other business;
but, take it, they will "stand alone''
and do pretty we'll, thank ye!

living is assured for the winter They
do nothing but sing and dance, and
have a good time for the rest of the
winter.
The Indians make their winter
house of tundra or (moss) about two
feet thick, round, and coming to a
point at the top, leaving a small hole
at the top for the smoke to come out,
and for light. The building is entered
by small tunnel, about ten feet long,
which you have to enter on your all
fours. The outside door is made of an
old caribou skin. The other end en-
ters the house and an old skin hung
over that entrance. This makes a
very warm, comfortable house. Each
family has its own house. It takes
but very little fire to keep this place
warm only few sticks. What light
they get comes from the top. They
place whales bladder over the top
to keep out the snow, and which still
leaves light.
They cook their fish on a forked
stick until one side is cooked and then
eat it, then turn it over and cook the
other side. The odor in this building
is something fierce. A white man go
ing in the first time is very apt to
hunt the open air pretty quickly, but
you soon get used to it and don't
notice it so much. There's another
small house outside near the main
building, just large enough for one
person, made just like the other
house. / found out that when the
woman was expected to give birth to
child that her husband compelled
her to 60 in there and stay until it was
all over. If the child lived it was
all right; she was allowed then to
come out into the living room. If the
child died she was looked down on.

A Trip to Alaska.

A funny circumstance happened
with our Indian pilot. His Indian
name was Ulock, but we called him
"Pete.n He was not used to the
white mans grub, but seemed to like
it very much. He ate 80 much that it
gave him severe cramps in the
stomach, We got out some Jamica's
ginger and made him a good strong
drink, which came near burning the
poor Indian up. He made dive for
the water. The fireman had bucket
with rope to it that he used for
dumping ashes over board which was
about half full of ashes. Pete cast it
overheard and got it full ofwater and
drank of this mixture, ashes and all,
which / think was the means of saw
ing his life, as the ashes acted as a
cathartic, and in day or two he was
all right again.
The next day the banker and ex-
chief OF police got cold feet and had
us land them at an Indian village with
enough grub to do them back to st.
Michael's. They took the first steam
er back for Kansas and their gold
fever was over. They picked up two
other men who took their places in
the company.
The Alaska Commercial Company's
most northern post was called Arctic
City, and this we reached day or two
afterwards. We stopped there one
day to clean boilers and then proceed
ed to the mouth OF the Allencackei
river. This stream heads on the south
side of the range from Point Barrow
on the Arctic Ocean. We were now
within the Arctic Circle. The Allen
cacket is a smaller stream than the
Koyukuk. The water was very low a
this time, but we managed to crawl vi
it about one hundred and fifty miles. |

Washington Correspondence.

The administration has agreed
upon legislative program which in
cludes, besides the appropriation bills,
the Alaskan railroad project designed
to open up the interior development;
amending the immigration laws so as
to exclude certain undesirable aliens
the establishment of system of rural
credits; the government of the canal
oneand the operation of the canal;
and the solution Of some half dozen
trust problems. The President and
Congress, at least the House, are
anxious to complete all this by June
1st, a consummation devoutly to be
wished.
Notice of civil service examinations
for fourth class post-masters have
been sent out to several states, giving
dates and places of such examinations.
An order has been made requiring all
who hold such offices or are applicants
for appointment, to be certified by
the Civil Service Commission. The
three persons making the highest
grades in the examination are certified,
and the appointment is made from
this list. If you do not see the notice
in the papers, write the Civil Service
Commission, Washington, D. O.
The Senate committee has reported
favorably on treaties pending before
that body, with some twenty four
foreign countries. 1t is thought that
the ratification Of these treaties will
be long step in the movement to-
wards an universal peace agreement.
The intense interest manifested in the
Hensley resolution proposing holi-
day of one year in warship building,
indicates that several first class
powers have grown tired OF the mad
race for naval supremacy. The ad-
ministration is anxious to have these
treaties ratified speedily, and no
doubt this will be done.
1t has frequently been charged on
the floor of the House that the en-
trance examinations to West Point
Military Academy are entirely toe
difficult. They have been called un-
fair, and unjust. A recent order pro-
vides that candidate for admission
who is regularly enrolled student,
in good standing, without conditions,
in any institution accredited by the
Military Academy, may be exempted
from the literary examinations. II
also provides that he may be exempt
ed IL he presents certificate oi
graduation from On institution &C.
cepted as standard by the examining
board Of the Academy. 1t is thought
that this order will stimulate young
men to enter, and thus greatly de.
crease the number OF vacancies in the
Institution.
