Ever Says Officer

I'VE believe we can make the
fair this fall one of the best
county fairs in the state" said
F. r. Phillips, president of the

that spirit of unity in doing all
that can be done for the county

The fair officials are very much
encouraged over the outlook for
splendid county exhibits and jud-
ging from the looks Of. crops at
this season there will be an alb
undance. Every kind of fruit,
vegetable, grain or floral pro-

STEAMSHIP GRAFT PROBE.
Hold UP Of Refugees to Be Reported to
State Department

London. Sept 9.-Tse action of Ger
tain steamship companiees in taking
what is considered a disgracefully un-
fair advantage of Americans forced TO
return home by raising their rates viii!
shortly be made the subject of an Of
fetal report and complaint TO the state
department.
The companies greatest offense is
selling inferior accommodations at
high rates. Many well to do Amer
leans, compelled by circumstance to
take whatever they can get are forced
to pay in some cases approximately
first class rates for what are steerage
accommodations.
Before the war rush of Americans the
regulation prohibited the mixing of
classes. Learning that hundreds of good
Americans would be compelled to go
second or third class, the government
waived this regulation. This gave the
companies a splendid opportunity to
sell second and third class accommoda-
TOMS for high prices, with the explana-
ton that the purchasers would have
the liberty of the whole ship" This in
VOWED no increase in expenditure by
the companies and was due to the ac-
ton Of the government, but the COM
panies nevertheless profted. There are
countless TunioTs OF graft and unfair
treatment.

BRITISH REFUSE TO LAY MINES.
Refuse to Resort to Plan Forbidden by
The Hague Treaty


London. Sept. 9.-Tle destruction of
vessels by mines has provoked much
discussion REGARDING protection agains.
mines.
Sir Arthur Conan DOYLE and other
prominent men have written letters to
the papers inquiring why devices were
not used to save ships from mines.
The British admiralty has long been
investigating equipment for the explo-
sion of mines before ships strike them.
More than one thousand devices for
this purpose have been offered in Eng
land. but like the naval experts OF
other nations, the British have found
all efforts of equipment so heavy as
to regard the speed of vessels. Nets
strong enough to resist the pressure OF
water and discharge mines offer such
resistance that their use is impossible.
AS consequence, it is explained, the
British like other nations have found
mine sweepers the only satisfactory
way to clear the seas Of explosives.
Two small boats dragging a heavS.
wire rope between them are used for
the purpose Of clearing the steamer
routes. Scores Of these are at work i'll
the North Sea.
Germany Is not signatory to The
Hague convention forbidding the use
Of mines. therefore England. which is
at war with Germany. could use mines
without violating The Hague conven-
ton. The British admiralty announces
! that it refuses to resort to mines

sides United States senatorial nominal
tons include congressman at large. dis
trio congressman, state treasurer super
intendent of public instructions. clerk
of the supreme court. and various
county and municipal officers, totalIing
more than 400.

tween Roger c. Sullivan, of Chicago.
and L. B. Stronger. of Lincoln, for the
democratic nomination for United
States senator. Reports from nine con-
| gressional districts principally from the
/ northern section of the state favored
Sullivan. The weather was fair and the
rural vote was light.

reports from some central and southern
districts, regarded as pivotal. indicated
! that the race was close or that Stringer
! was leading.
