HIGH COST OF PAPER.

The high cost of print paper is GER
tainly no joke with the editors and it
Is estimated that fully 1000 publica-
lions In the United States will be fore
ed to suspend on the first of the year.
Print that formerly sold for SIS a ton
now selling as high as 1920 a ton is
SOME raise in a years time. No less
than 10 raises were recorded in paper
during the past year by paper dealers
OF the intermountain country.
In the face of such conditions it is
needless to state that a years sub.
scription paid to the editor at this
time Is by no means an unwelcomed
ansaction.-Banner.

ELABORATE NAVAL PROGRAM
IS ADOPTED BY CONGRESS
MEASURE CALLING FOR I'M
MENSE EXPENDITURE is
VIRTUALLY COMPLETE.

Washington, Aug. 16.-Congress
virtually completed the national de-
fense program tonight by finally
approving the great increases in ma
Wy construction and personnel writ
ten into the naval bill and urgently
supported by the administration.
The House accepted the building
programme, to which its conferees
on the measure had refused to agree
by a vote of 2SS to 81, with seven
of the members present not voting.
The personnel increases, on which
there was also a disagreement in
conference, were approved with
record vote.
The personnel and construction
sections, which already have the APP
proval of the Senate, authorize an
increase in enlisted men to 74,700
and the building of 157 war vessels
within the next three years, with
four battle cruisers and four battle
ships included among the ships for
III. Previously the House had re-
fused to adopt continuing building
programme, and had authorized only
five capital ships, all of them battle
cruisers, and had provided for a
personnel of only $4,000.
On several less important sections
including appropriation for appoint
ment of navy yards, the House in
sisted on its disagreement to Senate
increases and voted to send the bill
back to conference for settlement
of these points. An early agreement
is expected however, and the meas
ure may be sent to the President for
his signature within a week.
Secretary Daniels issued a state
ment pointing out that the building
authorizations in the bill were the
greatest ever passed in any country
and would give the United States,
in the opinion of naval authorities,
the second largest navy in the world.
He declared the measure $50 com-
plete and nearly perfect that II win
stand as a model for all navy bills

ON CARSO PLATEAU

London, Aug. 16.--The Russians
have captured Jablonitza, one of the
principal gateways from Galacia to

Further to the north the Russians
are completing their drive against
the Austrians with unimpaired sue

AS far as other theatres Of war
are concerned, main interest centers
in the Italian operations, no impor-
tant action having been reported on
either the British or French fronts.
The Italians are vigorously pressing
thei raavance ON the Carso plateau
and Rome reports the capture OF
several sections of Austrian trenches
and the taking of 1900 Austrian
prisoners. Vienna does not admit
of any advance for Gen. Cordova's s

reports several repulses for the Ital-
ians with sanguinary losses.

cesses over the Russians in the Cau-
casas, and claim to have made big

ING SPECIAL LICENSE.

Police are making war against
local merchants who have been sell
ing Cream Top" foaming bever-
age which, according to the officers,
can not be legally sold without the
payment of a special license Of $3.50
per annum. 1t seems that there is a
statel aw imposing tax Of $500
upon dispensers Of the liquid, and as
municipalities are entitled to collect
an additional amount equal to 80
per cent of the state, city officials de-
clare that all merchants handling
"Cream Top" must come across with
$3.50. Profits on the concoction will
hardly warrant the merchants in
paying this sum, and they will prob
ably discontinue its sale.
