BRONCHoEs ARE GOING.

The European war promises to
mark the final passing of the wild
horse of the range, the disappearance
of the bucking bronco so long asso-
ciated with the west. Even now
there are ne wild horses such as once
roamed the ranges. and with the in
roads being made unon the west by
the war, his half civilized brother,
the bronco, promises to disappear.
Thousands of horses have been taken
from Colorado, Wyoming and other
western states. Not only have the
British and French buyers invaded
that section, but representatives of
the Italian government have combed
the country for months. During the
last few weeks an Italian buyer pur-
chased several hundred horses and SO
great was his haste to get them to
his country that they were sent by ex-
press from Denver to the east instead
of by freight. There they were hur.
ried aboard a steamer to Italy.

ROAD TO ELY IN FINE CONDITION

Lack of rain in the last week has
done wonders for the road between
Salt Lake and Ely, and F. E. Weston
and II. p. Drinkwater of Denver, who
made the trip by automobile from Ely
Sunday. reported the highway to be
in splendid condition. Weston and
Drinkwater made the run of nearly
800 miles in little less than fourteen
hours and arrived in Salt Lake short
ly before 3 O'Clock Monday night.
They are on their return trip from the
Pacific coast and left San Fancisco
Wednesday night. coming by the way
of the Lincoln National highway the
entire distance. says the Herald
Republican.
THE road across the Utah desert Is
in good condition, said Mr.. Weston.
We were able TO make an average of
forty-five miles an hour across the
reported bad spots. The worst place
in the road between Salt Lake and
odn IloiNiStO - lht Val nlnh hNdi

hard and but little time can be made.
This, however, is the only place in
the entire distance where good time
cannot be made
That the road between Salt Lake
and Ely. however, is heavy with dust

travellers on their arrival. The cal

South America, or having commercial
relations with those countries, have
received but scant consideration in
the department of state. After in
teryiews with the secretary of state
they have frequently come away from
the department with the feeling that,
In addition to the lack of government
protection, they were suffering per-
sonal disfavor because of the mere
fact of their having established bust
ness enterprises in foreign countries.
1t Is a notorious fact. and one which
has brought the blush to the face of
many Americans that although during
the strife which has occurred in our
neighboring republic, American citi-
zens have lost their lives and been
subjected to outrage. the department
of state apparently did not regard
these acts with the horror that their
seriousness demanded. This coun-
try's future demands a different poll
cy from the rural despensation of the
past two years. 1t has vast foreign
interests and its commercial relations
abroad are of an intricate and extern
sive character. These interests must
not be jeopardized by any weakness
of policy of the state department.
The United States must discourage
the belief that American lives can be
sacrificed with impunity.
That this policy of mo protection
has been brought to an end is very
evident from the recent message
which has been sent to the Mexican
ehieftains and from the message to
Germany protesting against the in
fraction of American rights.
The European a now has been

RECENT CHANGE IN CABINET.

The recent resignation of the sec
rotary of state has brought to a head
a movement which 1t is now evident
had been in course of development for
many months. Although the break
between the president and the secre-
tary of state was the direct issue of a
conflict of policy with reference to
the "Lusitania" outrage, 1t is evident
that the breach had been widening
owing to difference of opinion with
reference to the policy of state, says
Scientific American In a recent edi-
torial. These differences are funda-
mental and irreconcililable. The peo-
pie of this country believe In peace
and look upon war with the same
horror as secretary of state; but they
do not believe in ~proclaiming that
there is peace when there is no peace.
1t may safely be stated that lnfrac-
ton of the rights of American citi-

wantonly and without excuse will
not be tolerated.
The late secretary of state IS a
gentleman of much sweetness of
temper and gentleness of nature, but
events have shown that he was en-
tirly unqualified for the serious re-
sponsibilities of his important posi-
ton. This was chiefly due, 1t seems

and of It's vast humanitarian and

ENGLAND MAKES NO ATTEMPT
TO LIMIT EXPENDITURES

The house of commons June 81,
gave the national government a blank
check to be filled up in accordance
with the expenditures of the year.
In asking this indefinite credit
Chancellor of the Exchequer Nc
Kenna announced that he proposed
to issue a war loan to be terminated
at the option of the government be-
tween 1925 and 1916 for a sum-, the
only limit of which is to be the ex-
cess of the national expenditures for
war and other services for the year
over the revenue
This loan will be put out at par
and will bear interest at the rate of
AZ per cent. Holders of tire first
war loan and of consuls and annui-
ties will be given the privilege of
converting on specified terms.
The facilities for subcribtion are
SO wide that the man who has a dol
lar will be able to invest as easily as
the millionaire. First come will be
first served, as the allotments will be
made on application. The lists will
close on or before July 20.
Mr.. McKenna's announcement of
the details of this loan was made in
the house of commons. The chan
eellor said:
The time has come when the
necessity of a further loan has be-
come apparent and a prompt decision
is required, as it is desirable that a
big loan should be kept hanging over
the market"
The chancellor said the total realiz-
ed deficit between revenue and ex-
penditure up to last Saturday
amounted to nearly SO, ZOO, 900 and is
still increasing.
Mr.. McKenna said that unless the
loan were issued the only method
whereby the country could continue
to pay its way would be by the furth-
er indefinite issue of treasury bills.
He saw objections to this course, the
principal IN being that such issues
are bankers money, not public
money.
Il want the public to lend the
money in a way which will not oblige
us TO repay during the war" he con-
iinued.
In referring to the rate of interest,
Mr.. McKenna said the government
had TO face the situation of today,
and there were two great facts which
could not be ignored. The old war
lean at present Melted the investors
IL per cent and this loan now stands
at a discount.
we require many hundreds of
millions, said the chancellor. "If on
the old war loan the investors got
rather better than Az per zen we
cannot expect the new issue to be
foated at less than AZ per cent.
THE government is fully aware of
all the objections o only of meet
ing the interest but of the effect on
other loans. The effect of the issue
of a Az per ent loan will be to de-
preciate other securities and fore
most in the governments mind is the
old war loan. This country never
will leave its creditors in the lurch,
and the government therefore pro-
poses to give the new rights to hold
ers of the old war loan"

o PAYS episodes will be resumed on this page in the issue of Sunday


in progress for nearly a year, and at
the very outset, the people of our
land were rudely awakened to the
fact that certain forces were in action
that human nature had not reached
the ideal state which the American
people had supposed; hat in spite of
living remote from European strife
and in supposed safety from Euro
pean entanglements, We were likely
to be dragged into complications
which we could not foresee. Efforts
were made, therefore, to induce con-
gress to take some action-not to es-
tablish a large standing army or a
great navy, but to strengthen both
arms of the service so that the coun-
try could be placed in a condition at
least of adequate defense. Such in
fiuences as were brought to bear.
however, came TO naught and
congress adjourned without max
ing any provisions to improve the
condition of the army and its re-
serve. Indeed it did so little to remedy
the ayowed and we'll known deicien-
cies in the navy. that an almost un-
~precedented condition of affairs has
followed. in which private citizens
have formed themselves into associa-
tions and bodies of men, independent
of the government to provide for its
military deficiencies. A number of in
luential associations have been form
ed whose policy is not only to edu-
cate the people in the facts regard
ing our military weakness ESQ we'll
known abroad and in professional
circles here), but also to organize
young men voluntarily into groups
and bodies of men, for military
training. All this has been done
without support or even recognition
from the government.
1t was surmised before the war
broke out, and has been proved dur
ing the ten months of conflict, that
naval warfare has been greatly modi-
fed by the advent of the submarine.
1t became known that our own sub
marines were defective, that they
were not sufficient in number, and
that only a few were in a condition
for actual service. Through some
defect in one of these craft a number
of our brave sailors lost their lives
during simple peace duty. What
sufficient action has our navy depart
ment takes to remedy this well recog-
niZed deficiency in this arm of the
service? The recent congress order
ed the construction of several new
submarines, but made no provision
for the officers to nan them. No
provision has been made for building
any battle cruisers-an invaluable
type of ship-as the war has proved.
The one thing that the Scientific
American would deplore above every
thing else would be that we should
become entangled in the European or
any other war. This would be against
the spirit of u people and certainly
against their interests. The lesson we
have tried to teach through the col
lumns of the Scientific American has
been that of preparedness for defense
and the protection of its citizens
against injury and insult.

Mrs. Alexander Ivey passed away at
almost five o'clock last Wednesday
evening, at the family home in 41O
South Adams street Mrs. Ivey had
been a suffered of paralysis for sew
al years and the final stroke that hast
ened the end, occurred about two
weeks ago. The very simple funeral
services were held at the residence

ing. The body was laid to rest at Hill
side. The five sons and two sOns-ln-
law, acting as pallbearers. Annie Eus-
tice was born at British Hollow, June
20, 1847, and was united in marriage
to Alexander Ivey on March 4, 1868.
She was survived by her husband and
seven children: Alexander Jr., OF Els
therville, Iowa; Roy, of FIT. Atkinson,
Wis. Ned of Platteville; Joseph, Mrs.
G. @. Sykes, Mrs. o. w. Wright and
Earl, of Lancaster. She was lifelong
member of the Methodist church and
devout christian. She passed into the
hereafter leaving the grief of sorrowing
friends and relatives, sOftened by the
memory of her kindness and beautiful
nature. Mrs. Ivey was devoted to her
family and friends and her life was
one of service. She was the organizer
of the cemetery association and was
the treasurer of the association for
seven years, until her failing health
forced her to give up the work. The
splendid condition of the cemetery at
the present time is, in a large part,
due to her efforts in promoting the
work. No greater tribute can be paid
her memory than that she was home
maker; a true mother, and devoted
friend. She believed in doing good by
stealth and followed the precepts OF
her Master throughout her life. She
went into the Beyond serene in the be-
lief that He had prepared place for
her in His Mansion.
