101 RANCH WILD WEST SHOW

Physical strength today is what nine
out of every ten men admire, and for
that matter the female of the species

However, the modern luxudiousness of
living is fast making men lazy ami
NAL, and although he admires and de-
sires strength, the simple life neces-
sary for it's attainment, demands too
much sacrifice and he invariably turns
into the beaten paths of the last re-
sistance.
The Greeks of old, more than any
other nation, thoroughly appreciated
the value of athletics, and vistory at
the Olympic games was one of the
greatest accomplishments of mankind.
Americans, from wise institutions as
we'll as tradition, also hold in high es-
timation those who excel in any of the
varied games, and the biggest gather
ings in ancient or modern history are
those who have assembled to witness
contests of this character. 1t may be
accerted that a goodly percentage of
the tremendous crowds drawn to the
101 Ranch are attracted by the revival
this year of athletic contests.
Sporting events, including sharp
shooting in which Princess Winona,
the little Indian "sure shot," completes
with the crack experts of the gallery,
as we'll as boomerang throwing by the
redoubtable Australian expert, Worn
Tantlinger, are included in a panorama
of athletic events that comprise every
known difficult sport unusual in the
annals of contests of this sort. Auto
polo is the twentieth century thrilled

of the daily parade which will be the
morning feature when the exhibition

LUCKY FARMERS

1t is very fortunate thing for the farmers
that they raised this year a most abun-
dant crop OF wheat. and that they still
own most Of it on account of the low prices
prevailing at harvest and threshing time.
On account Of the great war in Europe
wheat has already made most substantial
advance. II this mighty conflict. which
has begun. should last for four months or
more, wheat will advance to SIPS or S1.50
per bushel. The United States has raised
at least 200.000.O0O bushels more than
can be consumed at home and this will
not begin to supply the foreign demand
with more than ten million soldiers in the
field. Cattle and hogs will also advance
rapidly above the high prices now pre-
vailing If the war is Of prolonged duration.
Our manufacturing establishments will also
find great foreign market in all the ports
of the world and the demand in this coun-
try for skilled labor will be multiplied.
What this country will most need to meet
the demand upon the products OF the farm
and factory will be ships. but under an
act Of Congress just passed foreign mer-
camille ships can re-reeister as American
ships, and be protected on the high seas
by floating the flag Of the United States.
With the immense financial resources of
the United States and with its powerful
navy. ranking second to England, none of
the European powers would insult any YES
sci carrying the stars and stripes.

THE FOREIGN WAR

The European war. a little more than a
week old. already has given to the world
incidents which will find place in history
for all time.
Against Liege. at the Belgian frontier,
the kaiser hurled three corps of his per
feet" army 900 men. In
repuIsing the Germans and inflicting enor-
nous losses Belgium appeared at first to
have checked the entire German campaign
and given TO England and France. her
allies, time to push forward their columns
to meet the German foe. where the issues
of war will be determined. The reports
from Berlin that Leiee has been captured
continues despite Belgian denials.

THE FAIR.

The purpose of the Agricultural Society
to make The Fair this year primarily an
exposition of county progress and enter
prise. and the program issued with that
end in view. should rekindle the interest
of our people in this time-honored institu-
ton. CHANGING back over its long. and in
the main successful history. it is incon-
testable that much of the improvement Of
our county is due to the influence Of these
annual meetings of our people and to the
friendly rivalry that the exhibits called
into play; and there is no good reason why
the same healthy influences should not
continue to produce results that will still
further promote the progress and well-being
of the community.
It may be that from time to time inno-
vations have displeased some Of our peo-
pie; that experiments in management have
disappointed others. and that Indifference
resulted from these causes. But If this is
true, there is all the more reason why a
return to a less ambitious programmes far
at least as changed social conditions will
permit-shoud stimulate special effort at
this time to make the coming Fair an all
round success.
The best management conceivable, and
the best possible intentions Of those in
charge of the Society. can accomplish
nothing without the cooperation of the
citizens of the county. And this co-opera-
ton consists not only in being present but
in making the display in every way credit
able to what is fast growing to be one
of the foremost agricultural counties of
the country. That is a very proud dis
tinction. and it is the simple duty of our
people to publish it to the world, and, in
the consciousness that the world recognizes
it. find the stimulus to greater effort and
more pronounced and enduring progress.
The Agricultural Society is calling upon
us to bring about this result, and is fur
nishing the opportunity which it would be
remiss in us to disregard. As the Society
is striving to do its duty let us strive to do
ours

PLAN WAR TAX TO RAISE REVE-
NUES.

Leaders in Congress who have studied
closely the European conflict and its eco
nomic effect on the United States are now
agreed practically that even with the
United States at peace with all the world.
"a war tax" must be imposed to meet ex-
isting conditions.
II is estimated by Representative Oscar
w. Underwood, chairman Of the House
Ways and Means Committee, that the loss
in import tariff collections, through the
upheaval abroad. would run from $780,
100000 to $150.000.000 annually. Mr..
Underwood asserted that plan to raise
this revenue in some other way than by
import duties must be devised.
Just what form this "war" or emergency
taxation would take. Mr. Underwood and
the other leaders were not prepared to
say. The general opinion prevails that
there will be stamp tax similar to that
imposed in the Spanish American war,
although it probably will not be so far
reaching.

emergency taxation, which will be pro-
vided for at the present session of Congress
will apply for the rest of the fiscal year
and will be followed by legislation for in
creases in direct personal taxation for the
next eight years and possibly ten years
The European war. to put il in another way
will cost the people Of the United States
according to the calculations at this time
in the neighborhood of billion dollars.
Collections from import duties now are
practically at a standstill at every custom
house in the country. Mr.. Underwood sait
that he expected the loss of revenue to b.
in a measure permanent For that reasol
there must be bolsterine up and revising
of the revenue laws in order to meet tn
situation. Just at present, before any o
the belligerents obtain control Of the sea
the loss in revenue is particularly heavy
and special temporary war tax of som
kind is demanded.

CONGRESS AVERTED A PANIC BY
PROLONGING SESSION

fhOLOhulHu CHociON.
Administration leaders in Congress have
ceased TO think about adjournment Al
though some of them believe the regular
business Of the session can be completed
soon after September list. they fear that
possible emergencies that may arise through
the war in Europe will make it impera-
tive that Congress remain in Washington.
Senator Kern and Representative Under
wood. the majority leaders, refuse to dis
cuss adjourning. Talk about the Capitol
indicates, however. that IL developments
of the next few weeks indicate that no
trouble is in prospect for the United States,
that already has not been safeguarded in
emergency legislation, the signal may be
given to wind up the legislative program
and adjourn for the fall campaign.
Discussing the situation, several Sena-
tors pointed to the fact that great alarm
would have been aroused had not Congress
been in session when the European nations
clashed. With the banks demanding emer-
eency currency legislation, there would have
been a cry throughout the country, which
could not have been met with quick re-
Spouse, and Congress would have been
called in extra session. The passing Of the
EMERGENCY Currency amendment and the
progress already made toward emergency
shipping legislation. the Senators declared,
have done much to allay fears in the United
States.

ability of adjoining after the legislative
