was that accorded Billy Sunday in
Ann Arbor Monday. when 1000 stu

 OLD FORM OBSOLETE
Premier Becomes Member of Irish Privy Council in Order to TaIke Direct Part in Shaping the
 New Policy.

Dublin, May 17.-Premier Asquith has reached the conclusion that the old form of government in Ireland has had it's day. The Associated Press learns from sources in the clos est touch With the premier that MT. Asquith's conversations and confer ences in Ireland had convinced him that the future government must be conducted on an entirely different system. z< sSzS
 The premier minister has taken care to learn the ideas and views of many persons, other than those in purely official circles, and these persons have offered greatly varied suggestions. None of these, it is believed, could be adopted in it's entirety, but it is thought they might be welded to- gether to form a proposal to lay be- fore the cabinet. The premier him. self does not know what form his proposal will eventually take, and, in fact, it will probably be fully de- veloped only at the cabinet meeting.
 The Belfast visit gave a good hint to the premier that the Ulsterists would not accept direct proposal inn plying home rule, but it is believed they might be induced to enter into a concerted plan which would possibly be arranged to meet their most seri- ous objections.
 Mr. Asquith will go to Cork tomor- row. He has not, however, arranged to see the politicians. Most of those with whom he will confer are of the literary and educational classes.

 Today's raids were ordered as a re- suit of complaints that liquor was be- ing sold despite stringent prohibition laws.

 Little Rock May 1.-The health department of the Arkansas state gov crnment has been most warmly com m"nded by the United States public hclath service. Dr. c. w. Garriscn, head of the work in the state. has just returned frcm Washington. where he was in conference with health author ities of other states. upon the call of Surgeon-Gencral Rupert Blue of the United States public health service. The meeting was for the purpose of standardizing and systematizing the health regulations. It will be neces- sary for some of the states to make radical changes, but few will be nec- essary in Arkansas. as the health laws of this state already closely fol- low those of the United States.

COTTON GROWERS FORM TENTATIVE
 ORGANIZATION
Propose to Cooperate in Marketing Products and
 Making Purchases.

As a direct result of the recent visit to Scott and the study of the workings of the Scott Cotton Planters association by party of about a dozen cotton planters of this and ad joining counties, cotton growers association was tentatively formed at a meeting of cotton planters yester- day forenoon, at the assembly hall of the chamber of commerce, the organi- zation to be perfected at another meeting to be held in the same place on Thursday of next week at 10 a. m.
 J. E. Boyce, president of the Cotton Belt Savings and Trust company, and who is president of the Jefferson County Farmers club, made an inter- esting talk, in which he stressed the value and importance of cooperation among the farmers and planters, small and large, not only for market ing purposes, but also in the purchase of necessities and supplies of all sorts.
 MT. Boyce, J. D. McGehee of Tarry and Harry Eversfield of Moscow were made committee to arrange the plans for perfecting the organization. J. D. Crockett, the big planter of South Bend, was elected chairman of the meeting, and Farm Demonstration Agent Joel Lambert, secretary, these to serve until the permanent officers of the association are elected.
 sThe discussion covered wide range, but the concensus of opinion appeared to be that the association wifi arrange to expedite and perfect tie handling, classification, ware housing adn shipping of their cotton, anfHwll employ a competent man to classify and grade the cotton belong ing to the association members and to manage the warehouse.

St. Louis. Mo. May 17.-- Seats at the Democratic national convention, which meets in the St. Louis coliseum June 14, will not be sold by the local committee on arrangements, but will be distributed by secret committee of three among the contributors to the $100.000 convention funC.
