Inside Speed Done

Doc Hedges has slipped it to
US on the quiet that the speed
program this year is going to con-
tain one event that will be worth
coming clear from Kankakee to
witness. This is nothing less
than a worlds championship race
between the two long-eared, bob
tailed John mules known in the
annals of history as Baalam and
Israel.
This event was started in the
year 41144 B. C. from the gates
of Jerusalem but was never fin
ished on account of the flood. 1t
will be the great privilege of the
patrons Of the Fallon county fair
to see this race in our own little
town of Ekalaka.
Doc says he is going to start
the race himself and promises to
get them away with a pigeon
wing start if he has to use a AZ
watermeter seige gun. Mac Rick
ard will coach the race from
Monte Rolfe's flying machine and
President Jess Grant will judge
the finish.
These two speed marvels were
started for a trial quarter We'd
nesday and at the time Of going
to press Baalam was half a nose
in the lead, both running strong.

London, Aug 14.-Wide circulation
was given on Thursday to a rumor
that the government had received

on the activity at rising prices of

however. to cause the foreign buyers

DEFENDED BY THE UNITED
STATES.
WON'T HINDER SHIPMENTS
Reply to Austrla-Hungary's Note Up.
Holds Right to Deal In Arms
Cites Instances When Austria Sold
Munitions to 5elIIgerents.

Washington. Aug. 1.-THE reply of
the United States to the note of Aus
tria-Hungary. refusing to stop the ex.
portation of arms and munitions to
the enemies of that nation as request.
ed in representations June 20. was
made public here on Sunday
Among the reasons for this refusal
the United States gave the following:
To refuse the sale of implements of
war to belligerents would force mill
tarism on the world and work against
universal peace-which is the desire
and purpose of all nations which exalt
justice and righteousness with one
another.
The principle of equalization, urged
by Hungary. should apply to
belligerents superior on land as well
as sea. thus imposing on neutral ma
tons duty to sit in judgment on the
progress of a war.
During the Boer war, the Crimean
war and the Balkan war arms and am
munition were sold to belligerents by
both Germany and Austria-H Hungary.
The policy of the United States
since the foundation of the republic
has been to permit the sale of war
supplies to belligerents so that this
nation, which in times of peace main
tains no large military establishment
may have access to markets of other
nations for the purchase of war equip
ment when attacked by a foreign
power
