werld 5 championship, viii go intact

games beginning in San Franciso, Oct
%, according to arrangements made to-
day by the National commission, the
presidents of the two clubs and rep
resentatives of the Panama-Pacific ex-
position. The teams will play in Chi
cago, Omaha and Salt Lake city on
the way out and also in Los Angeles
and San Diego.
William Lang, representing the expo
sition said the arrangements were
made with some difficulty, but finally
all objections including finances, were
overruled. The two teams will take
all the men reserved for the world s
series, and the playing viii be the
same with the exception that there will
be no title at stake. As the date of
the closing game is in doubt no time

Dry Canton in Excellent Financial
Condition
Run Without Liquor Better Basis
Than Ever

In every local option fight, the vets paint
a picture OF the financial ruin that will over
whem a town if it votes out the saloon.
Taxes, they predict, will be higher, public i'm
provements will cease and the town will be
unable to meet its current expenses
All these calamites and others Just as
dreadful were forecasted in the local option
campaign i'll Canton last spring, but not sim
gle one of them has been realized. The Can
ton Daily Ledger of February II says that
although the city gave up $4,000 license mon
ey year ago. its financial condition was never
SO good. At the meeting of the city council
on February 10, the finance committee,
through its chairman, w. L. Hyde, made its
annual report which shows that there is a
balance in all the city's funds, although there
has been no curtailment of legitimate expenses
and no hating of public improvements. In
summarizing paragraph, the report says:
This year the general fund was entitled to
receive $4,000 from taxes and $4,000 was
expected from other sources named above
Up to the present time, there has been re-
ceived $4,000 in tax warrants and Sci 900
from other sources This has been sufficient
for all general purposes and also to build
$4,000 worth of sewers and $4,000 worth of
improvements in the waterworks department
and further reduce the outstanding orders
against the general fund from $4,000 to
$4,000 ttreasurer's report January I, 1879.
And besides these things, the bonded indebt-
edness has been reduced from $4,000 to $72,-
ooo"
And Canton has done all this without
cent of saloon money.
The Daily Ledger characterizes Chairman
Hyde's statement as most remarkable re-
port OF enterprise and hard-headed business
foresight" Canton is beginning to realize
what Rockford, Jacksonville and practically
every other dry city in the state discovered
some time ago, tlat cities like individuals
are immensely benefited financially by swear
ing off"

Wet Joliet Bankrupt
Has to Borrow Money Despite $4,000 Sa-
loon License
The Banker issued by the First National
Bank of Joliet publishes the following report
received from the city clerk and setting forth
the financial condition of the city on Novem-
Der I, 1914:
Unpaid bills Observation-Disclosures I5,oo25o
Unpaid pay rolls ............... I5,IoI82
Making a total Of................$ 3o,IO432
The city has also borrowed on next
years taxes and spent the sum of o3,3356o
Which makes total current debt
of Observation-Disclosures. .$I23,52992
There is III the bank the sum Of. 8,04I28
Which leaves a deficit of ........ STA 58864
In 1913 the deficit was $I88,27ooI as
against $II4,5SS.O4 last year. This shows
apparent improvement in the bad financial
condition of the city. AS matter of fact,
however, the city had to issue $685. bonds
to pay off its floating Indebtedness, SO that in
reality the city behind in its current ex-
penses last year, SII3I863. There has in
deed been continued increase in the city's
deficit despite the SI44,ooo received from IA
saloons.
The city's employees-hrem policemen
and others-were not paid their salaries for
the months of September and October last
until January of this year. Before that time
they were often paid in city warrants, which
occasionally the banks refused to honor be-
cause of their lack of faith in the financial
status of the city.
We commend this report of the deplorabe
financial condition of Joliet under saloon rule
to the voters of Kankakee and other cities
whom the liquor dealers are trying to hood
wink into believing that liquor helps town
finance it's affairs and we would commend al
SO the reports in this issue of the excellent
financial condition of Canton and Rockford

1t has become known that the United
States Fuel Supply Company. which was
purchased by the Columbia Gas and Elec-
trio Company of Cincinnati. Ohio, short
time ago. would suon commence to build
pipe lines from Charleston, W. Va, to
Washington and Baltimore. supplying those
cities with natural gas from its West Viz
GINA wells.
The furnishing of the two Eastern cities
with natural gas is in line with the policy
announced by the officials of the pur-
chased company. who told of the enormous
holdings of the United in West Virginia
and Kentucky and possible extensions
The cost of the pipe line TO Washington
and Baltimore will reach into the millions
and will take more than a year TO com
plete.
W. Y. Cartwright. Of Cincinnati. vice
president of the United, is in the East,
where arrangements for the project are
now going on. The headquarters Of the
United are at Charleston. W. Va. There
are number of cities in Maryland and
Virginia on a line with Washington and
Baltimore. which will be supplied by the
proposed line. and it is probable other
lines extending North, South and East
from these two cities will be built when
the main line is completed

Excellent List OF Speakers.
MEN AND WOMEN Or NoTE AT COUNTRY LIFE
SCHOOL AND CONFERENCE, COLLEGE PARK,
Nd, July 26 To AUGUST 6.

Someone has remarked that only the poet
speaks of the sweet breath of the kline
that the country boy seldom takes the
sentimental view Of things. You cannot
praise the fresh air. the lure of the woods
and the splendor of the sunset, and call
that country life to himl He usually de-
mands that you add early rising, chores,
ten hours of hard work. more chores few
amusements, and no recreation, to your
conception of farm life. To properly I'M
derstand the country viewpoint you must
yourself be countryman.
The speakers at the School and Confer
ence. says the Manager in charge. have that
country-mind viewpoint. They do not
preach, they confer. They indulge in no
impractical. half-baked reforms. They speak
out plainly in direct language. They feien
no condescension, for they feel themselves
as workmen with workmen. This makes
their great experience doubly valuable.
The U. S. Department of Agriculture is
represented by o. B. Martin. who is in
charge of the club work of fifteen Southern
States; L. B. Flohr. Investigator in Mark
citing and Distribution. and Miss Anne M.
Evens. Investigator of Womens Rural Or
CARNATIONS. both of the Office of Markets
and Rural Organizations; G. II. Afford, State
Agent in charge of demonstration work ;
and Reuben Brigham. Assistant State
Agent in charge of boys club work. Almost
the entire stats of the Agricultural COL
lege and Experiment Station are scheduled
for classes in the school or addresses at
the conference. Miss Farr. Secretary of
the Maryland State Travelling Library !;
Miss E. S. Jacobs. Director of Domestic
Science of the District of Columbia Ar
thur G. Turner, Of the Baltimore News !;
and Warren D. Foster. Department Editor
of the Youths Companion. are also on the
