who believed only less in the power
of arms and ornaments, will thus be
led to see that the brotherhood of man
is the basic principle of all permanent
peace.
Awful as the present experience of
Europe is, it has probably fastened
by hundreds of years the universal ac-
acknowledgement and adoption of the
principle that right, not might, is the
best law for the welfare of nations.
Then why prolong (nearly two years
carnage has been decisive of nothing)
an unnecessary and useless conflict.
that can only result in the exhaustion
of these self-same Powers and the
century-long misery of the great mass
es of all these peoples? If a new Ha-
que Conference were to sit continu-
ously until the peoples of these coun-
tries compelled their rulers to submit
their differences to its decisions, peace
might come sooner than anyone would
imagine. What greater role could A
merica have than to be the first to take
this decisive step, and work for it in
cessantly until its fulfillment came?
Yours very truly,
F. L. Fishbaugh.

MAYOR WILLING
TO GRANTLICENSE.
AL G. Barnes Shows May Exhibit in
City on Payment of $4,000 Lii
cenSe Fee.

1t is generally known that the May
or has refused to grant the Al. G.
Barnes Shows a license to exhibit in
this city on Monday, June 10Th and al
so that a majority of the Aldermen
have approved of the action CT ,h4
Mayor.
1t appears, however, regardless of
this fact, that the AL G.. Barnes Shows
are advertising that they will posi-
lively appear in this city on that date
and it is reported that they will give
their performances just outside of the
city limits.
At the meeting of the Common
Council held June 9th, this matter re
ceived considerable considerati IN and
it appeared to be the concensus of
opinion of the majority of the coun-
Gil that if the Al. G. Barnes Shows are
going to show here at that time AID rs
we have no power to stop their using
our streets for unloading and leading
perhaps II "OuII NC pSJttI 1OI Us "
grant them a license on their pawn. ent
of the maximum fee of $4,000 A
motion was made and carried, how
ever, referring this matter to the May
or and City Attorney with authori Y
for them to use their discretion rs to
the granting of the license.
We still believe it would be to the
best interest of the city if the Al. G.
Barnes shows would not appeal in
this city on June 10th owing to the
fact that we have the Eagles State
Convention here that week. 1t ap-
pears, however, that we are power
less to stop them from showing out
side of the city limits or denying to
them the use of our city streets.
Under the circumstances, if the Al
G. Barnes Shows now want us to g 'ant
them license at the maximum fee OF
$4,000 for use of grounds and eItfa
police protection we will do so.
Signed:
E. w. ELLIS, Mayor

Win for Grand Rapids.
From MONDAYS DaiIv

From Mondays Daily.
Before good sized crowd at the
Marshfield base ball field yesterday at.
ternoon, the Grand Rapids team beat
the Marshfeld team by a score of g
to l. The game was practically fea-
tureIess. except for the alright pitch
ing of Devine after the first inning
and the excellent support he has Civ.
en- by the men behind him.
The excursion train from this CITY
did not leave until about 2 o'clock be-
cause of trouble with the engine. On
arriving at Marshfeld, the PLAYERS
went to the hotel and changing their
clothes, went directly on the ball
field and the game was called. Devine
had no opportunity of warming up and
went on the mound cold. 1t was inthe
first inning that Marshfeld secured
its one and only run, two hits being re-
sponsible for the tally. After the first
inning 1t was series of goose eggs
or Marshfield in both the hit and
run column.
Grand Rapids evened up the score
in the second inning and then the E
was nothing doing until the ninth
when Gustin singled and stole second
and third-Wachs scored him with
single. Bremen got on thru an error
and stole second and scored on another
error.
Forty-five ball and Skat fans went
up on the special over the 500 line.
Grand Rapids has the best team this
year that it has had in years and it
deserves the support of the communi-
ty. An opportunity to show your low
atty to the home town and team will
come next Sunday when Wausau plays
here. Wausau has strengthened its
team and will put up a game worth
going a long way to see.
Jimmy" Devine struck out IA of
the Marshfield men, walked one and
hit two. Bast struck out six of the
Rapids players and was touched up
for 8 hits, while Marshfeld only gar
nered two off the shifty Jimmy.

Constantinople, May 9.-(By MaiD
The American people have given
their verdict in the Armenian question
without hearing the Turkish side.
Consequently, there are in the A
merican press and public opinion ideas
totally unjust to the Turks.
In order to understand the situa-
ton rightly, one has to know, first
of ALL that historically the Turks were
the most humane conquering race i'm
aginable.
At a time when they had every OPP
pOrtunity DISSEMINATING the conquer
ed races by force, they gavethem free
dom of religion, language, and free
community organization.
Had the Turns behaved as the
Spaniards have against dissenters in
religion or race, there would be no
Armenians and no Armenian question
today.
After the Young Turkish revolution
in 1908, the Christians acquired alb
solute equality with the Turks.
Their revolutionary activity under
the reign of the former Sultan was
'ascribed to their desire for equal rights
of citizenship. It soon became clear
that they thought of equal rights on
ly as means to the end of a nation
al Independent existence.
Instead of taking advantage of the
new opportunity they had to become
| lawful Ottoman citizens, they esta-
blished secret societies, made a large
revolutionary organization IN the coun
try and distributed arms and bombs :
mong their members.
The first dutyof every state is to
insure its independence. Therefore,
! Turkey had to resort to all the nee
essary measures for this important
end.
Among the non-Turkish races the
Armenians were the nearest to the
Turks in regard to their spoken lam
| guage and social habits.
Several decades ago, when they had
not yet begun their revolutionary ae-
tivity, they enjoyed the full confidence
of the Turks, and they were always
called by the Turkish press ''our faith
full fellow-citizens the Armenians."
In abusing the confidence of the
Turks, the Armenians went further
than the other Christian races.
| Especially, during the present war
they did not shrink from open trea-
son, and tried to endanger from with
in the existence of their country
which was engaged in fight for Ii
or death at four different fronts, with
powerful enemies, and caused tbs
new Armenian troubles.

if you are brave in the trough of O.
cean wave you can go and roll your
hoop with perfect ease. So hoop-a-
la my dear hoops at last you may
think queer, but for bathing suits
they're chic soon each agrees.
With sandals on her feet, clasping
close her ankle neat, here's maiden
looks just like the Russian ballet, for
her bathing suit bizarre has indeed a
rainbow air as some ribbons blue, pink
purple round it rally. There is vel
low ribbon too and the suit is green
IN hue and its two TERED skirt hangs
down in Jagged points that the divers
ribbons edge and the knickers closely
hedge her shapely neither limbs he
low the knee joints. Nearthe hips are
ribbons placed that half gather in her
waist, but the ribbons don't exten
across the front. From square neck
it falls quite plain and thus length IF
line doth gain and it makes it a good
model for a runt. The sleeves are
pointed tabs with more bright ribbon
dabs Oh this bathing suit sure keeps
the ribbons busy, for they also trim
the neck and the helmet CAP, by heck,
and the whole things sur1;) make the
fishes dizzy.
There are bathing mantles too that
have stripes of hectic hue that bisect
their ample folds of Tussore silk and
think you will agree if rare sights
you wish to see at the sea shore we
will see more ofthis ilk.

SUM- BATHING
SUITS THE
Thing THIS YEAR
BY MARGARET MASON
(Written for the United Press)

If when you don your bathing suit,
You've chosen it with care,
AS on the beach to battle you are en-
route,
You'll find you have a following
Replete with son and heir.
1t follows everyman will follow suit.
New York, June 10.-Tf you want
to take dip then you'd better take a
tip and select a suit impervious to
water, for they're making moreand
mo re suits for bathing on the shore
and to wear them in the wet you had
Mt oughter.
In fact most everyone is for bathing
in the sun and if you have desire for
surf and brine, one piece suit is bes-,
it will stand the aqua test and it fits a
perfect figure simply fine. But if you
think it fun just to linger near the sun
and of course a moneyed son you
much prefer, there are ruffled suits
galore thatthe brightest sons are for.
They excite to envy human maids or
men. Of taffeta they're made, in ali
or any shade but there's one of green
that simply is divine. The skirt is RI
| flies four and there simply can't be
more, because above the knees it
| draws the line. The neck is rather low
with a ruffle round it so and the Slew
es of course are nothing much to men
ton. It's cap is ruffled too, with its
Knockers out of view and to make ap-
pearance they have no intention.
Another suit of blue faunts some
thing very new; around the hip be-
lieve me It's hoop. Thereare seal
lops by and fore down the front and
then some more round the skirt but
it's the hoop that is the coup. And sc
