THE ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE
 CONVENTION AT ATLA MTG
 CITY. N. J., JULY 6-e. 1913
By Dr. Benjamin Asbury Few.

By Dr. Benjamin Asbury Few. It Is quite an impossible task for me to give in the limited space an time allotted me anything like a clear and comprehensive idea of the great
 Anti-Saloon League Convention. or what l saw and heard in about thirty hours of sessions which I attended. to say nothing of the five sessions of the board of directors and the reso- lutions committee of the same. With 118 names on the program, of min isters, governors, judges and lawyers some of the finest speech-makers of the nation-you may know that they gave me more than I could write at many sittings and would be allowed in many pages of your val uable space. It would be little more of physical impossibility to bring the Young's Million Dollar Pier to Prescott than would be the task of bringing the great Convention with all its proceedings and impressions to your readers through the medium of the printed page.
 Young's Million Dollar Pier ex- tends many hundred feet out over old ocean with two great halls or audi toriums known as the AUDITORIUM and HIPPODROME, situated half square apart, so that the noise of one did not interfere with the other, with a seating capacity of 25,OOO where simultaneous sessions were held forenoon, afternoon and evening from Tuesday evening until Friday even- ing. It was an ideal place for the Convention. No other city in the world could produce a better WATER WAGON for such a WATER WAGON crowd.
 It was a great convention. Viewed at whatever angle, it's greatness inn pressed all observers. Whether one thinks of the program or the speakers who appeared thereon, of the music and those who directed it, or of the delegations present, one was compell- ed to conclude that never before in the history of our nation was such a meeting as this.
 When the Anti-Saloon League held it's convention in Columbus, in 1913, the declaration was made that Pro- hibition must come to the nation. That was all very well, and marked the progress of the temperance move ment up to that hour. But year and half has elapsed since that con- vention, and the ti-Saloon League never marks time. It is always alert, up to the minute, in full marching order.
 Victories have been won in that time, and sentiment has been crys- talized. It is necessary for this con- vention not only to re-affirm it's stand for Prohibition. but to go a step for ward and declare by what means and methods Nationay Prohibition shall be realized. From out the convention has gone forth the challenge to the liquor men of America to prepare for the great battle that is sure to come. Not a war of hate against the liquor dealer, but contest of love for the human victims of the licensed shop.

HOW TO SELL CORN Rv l.. A. Markham.

r.oro are undoubtedly a good many
 ,ors who are soon going to find .samselves in possession of more corn .non tbev can economically dispose of s. home Several have already spoken to us on the subject, and have asked for suggestions for feasible plan Here m is what we have to suggest;
 For selling to the home merchant ;f be is in the market-shell, clean and bag the corn in 2-bushel bags. Tho shelling is a matter of serious ;mnortance, especially to the merchant for he does not want to go to the trouble of handling so bulky thing as corn in the ear or the expense of hous- ;nc it. If he does not have to go to tb;s trouble and expense he will, of course take his pay out of the price If the corn. But it is also an advan- tace to the seller to have the corn .belled. for he can handle much larger quantity in much shorter time sbelled than in the ear, and he saves tbo cost of hauling the cobs and shucks.
 If the corn is to be shipped get to- pether right away all the farmers in the community who will have corn to sell; pool the corn so to speak; and find approximately how much you will have for the market. Then sell ect good mana man whom you know to be good-to serve you as shipping and sales manager, just as the cantaloupe and fruit growers do. When the corn is ready to ship deli yer it to him shelled, cleaned and bag ged in clean 2-bushel baggs.
 The smelling problem may give you little trouble in some cases, for a mechanical sheller will, of course be required However, there are some farmers who have shelters that will serve as a tempory purpose and there are a great many who live convenient to a mill that operates corn sheller. If man has neither of these facil- ties he will simply have to buy she'll er for his own use or get two or three of his neighbors to join him in buying one to be used on the barter Ship plan.
 Another thought in conclusion. Do not sell the corn off too closely. We want to have plenty of fat hogs Jo Kill next winter; fat work horses and muleS next year, instead of the gaunt |and hungry scare-crows which some of us are having to work this year. Wherever a man is situated so that he can do so it will pay much better to turn the corn into pork, beef and horse flesh than it will to sell it at any reasonable price.

HALIFAX, N. S. = With fire raging

Carlton arrived in port with 1890 tons
of sugar on board. Captain Henderson
at once reported to the admiralty.
What was the cause of the explo-
sion?' the captain was asked.
What is the cause of them all?"
he replied He said the ship was roll
ing heavily when the fire was discov-
cred and he was not sure whether an
explosion had occurred.
The steamer Carlton of Newcastle
sailed from New York with sugar last
Thursday bound for Queenstown for
orders. The fire was discovered Satur-
day afternoon and the smoke was so
dense it was impossible to make an
investigation. Steam was forced Into
the hold and the matches were secure
ly fastened down. The Carlton then
raced for Halifax.

Secretary of State Replies TO Note
from Berlin and Won Bernstorff Com
munication-ReveIat in NUM-
tons and Ship Plot Cases Are Men
toned in Reply.
WASHINGTON - Secretary Lam
sing has replied to Germany that the
American governments request for the
withdrawal of Captain Boy-Ed and
Captain Won Papen, the naval and
military attaches, respectively, of the
German embassy here, was entirely
because of their military and naval
activities
Secretary Lansing's reply to the
German governments inquiry which
indicated the Berlin foreign office in.
tended to contest the withdrawal OF
the attaches under certain conditions,
was delivered in long communication
which the German embassy immedi-
ately forwarded to Berlin. At the EN-
bassy all comment on it was withheld.
President Wilson fully approved
Secretary Lansing's decision.
Reply Sent to Germany.
Secretary Lansing also sent a reply
to Germany through Ambassador Ger
ard at Berlin. In making it's inquiry
Germany used two avenues of COM
munication-the German ambassador
here and the American ambassador in
Berlin.
The Archibald incident it was said,
was mentioned in connection with the
case of Captain Won Papen and the
trial of the Hamburg-American con-
spirators was mentioned in connec-
tion with the case of Captain Boy-Ed.
Emphasis placed on the statement
that military and naval activities alone
were considered was taken to indicate
that other German officials were not
in any way concerned.
AS to diplomatic precedent for the
request of Germany, it is said, Secre-
tary Lansing's communication does
not admit the right of the Berlin for
eign office to inquire into facts and
their sources. Consequently no specific
details of any kind we're discussed.
Attaches Will Be Recalled.
BERLIN The request re-
ceived here from the United States for
the recall of Ca~tain Franz Won Papen
and Captain Karl Boy-Ed, military and
naval attaches respectively of the Ger
man embassy at Washington, undoubt-
edly will be granted in accordance
with diplomatic usage, it is said. How
ever, Germany probably will ask first
to be informed of the grounds on
which the United States government
bases the undesirability Of the at
taches.
News of the request for the recall
has not been published by the German
press.

believe that he has been sufficiently
punished. and that be should be- par

convicted was committed in the heat of
passion and at a time when he was
very much provoked. He was very
