Harmonious Gathering.

When the Democratic hosts gath
e at st. Louis this week the con-
trust to the convention held at Chi
cago last week will be striking.
There will be a united party and
the name of our matchless Presi-
dent, Woodrow Wilson, will be pre-
scented to the convention and NE will
be the unanimous choice Of the con-
vention to again be the standard
bearer of the Democratic hosts at
the coming November election. Led
by such man as he has proven
himself to be, the peace loving, God
fearing people of America should
rally round his banner and give
MIN their loyal, hearty and uncon-
ditional support.

rise and fall with the tide Of talk.

FIVE INJURED IN GARAGE

jured when an explosion in the
basement blew the front plate glass
windows out Of the building and in
~ confagration which followed
four automobiles were burned and
the floor of the second story fell in.
The explosion was supposed to
have been caused by a spark, flying
from an electric wire poorly insu-
lated to an oil tank and igniting
at dangerous proximity to gaso-
line tank of from 1000 to 5000
gallons capacity. The total damage
to the building and stock is not
known and the fire was not con-
trolled for several hours and dan
ger to adjoining property was en-
ormous. The garage is located
within half block Of the govern
ment building on Fourth street and
is a two-story brick and concrete
structure comparatively new and is
owned by Ed Nelson.
DR.. J. G. Mcdowell, pastor of the
Second Presbyterian church, was
passing in front Of the garage when
the explosion occurred and was cut
on the face and neck by flying
glass when the front windows were
shattered. A falling brick hurt L. B.
Conn slightly and T. B. Simmons
was thrown violently against the
wall and badly shaken up when the
explosion occurred. Joe Wolfe, who
was said to be contemplating buy
ing the concern, and J. Ingram, an
employee, were badly shaken up by

BUSINESS KEEPS UP

Speaking of opportunities for
American business men and manu-
facturers in the country where he
was formerly stationed as the Am
bassador, of the United States,
Henry Morgenthau, in II public adj
dress, declared that while Ameri-
can export business to Turkey was
practically at standstill now,
there was wonderful chance for
renewal after the war of thriv-
ing business begun with the Otto
man Empire before the outbreak
Of hostilities. He said that the
Standard Oil Company had estab-
ished itself, fighting the Russian
and Rumanian interests, the Inter
national Harvester Company and
American Tobacco Company did a
big business and that American
mines can compete with England
and Australia in selling coal. Fur
Their he declared that very little
land in Turkey was cultivated be-
fore the war because OF bad roads,
and that when peace comes there
will be a field there for the sale
of agricultural implements. Ameri-
cans have an advantage he assert
ed because Turkey realizes that the
United States has no desire fol
Oriental territory.
What is true of Turkey will be
true Of practically the entire world
when peace comes. 1t is very evil
dent that there will be more OPP
portunities for placing the products
of the lands and the outputs of
our mines and mills, shops and fac
tories in greater quantities and in
far wider distribution after the war
ends than there is during it's con,
tinuance. There are on the CONT
nent Of Europe fully 200,000,000
people who are now on short RAJ
tons and nearly 100,000,000 in
Africa and Asia in the same grasp
of near famine. Northern, Western
and Southern Europe alike are suf-
fering severely from the scarcity
of food, and if British and French
reports as. to food conditions in Ger
many and Austria IRE to be credit
ed, the 12O,OOO,OOO of people in
those nations are very close to ac-
tual starvation.
II IF these 300,000,0oO people of the
old world are free once more to
buy and receive such commodities
from our ports, it will take years
of shipments in huge amounts to
provide these populations with
stores of food, and for years af-
ter the close of the war the bellig-
erent nations will be unable to pro-
duce sufficient themselves to APP
proximate in any manner the peo-
Piles needs. Villages, towns and
cities will have, to be rebuilt;
farms, districts, provinces and
kingdoms re-equipped in all that
makes modern. life what it is, and
the United States, for materials,
machinery, tools ana implements,
will be great supply house for
the major part of what is needed.
There is no valid argument that
can justify concern in the minds
of business men of the United
States as to dull times in this
country after the close of the Eu-
ropean war, though as matter of
political necessity the Republicans
will be compelled to predict 'em.-

Robs Cellmate in
The Police Station

L OllSCi L OLSCi 1lSiPi
A mans voice, deeply bass, echoed
through the entire police station
Thursday morning. Desk officers, pa
troluen and detectives rushed toward
the cell where the voice rumbled
from.
"He got it. He took it away from
me-" Lewis Barges, Mexican, excit-
eddy told the guardians of the law. 1t
was Lewis who had yelled. And he
was pointing an accusing finger at
his cell mate, Steve Clark, of St
LOUIS, both of whom had been
rounded up in a corral of all the sus-
poets in Wednesdays evening carni-
val of strong-arm jobs.
1t seems that Barges has a secret
pocket in his clothes and by the aid
of this he managed to keep from the
prying eyes Of the police roll of 500.
Both men had been searched at head
quarters before being imprisoned.
When he got in the cell Barges
showed Clark the wad OF wealth and
the St. Louis product promptly re-
lieved the Mexican. Barges immedi-
ately howled and revealed the stunt
When the Mex" got back his money
the two men were separated, and
each thereafter occupied himself with
hurting imprecations at the other, but
kept apart by iron bars.
Five men were arrested as suspects
in the six highway robberies staged
Wednesday night and early Thursday
morning in the Third ward.

responded and succeeded in smother
ing the burning garments by rolling
Mrs. Tanner and beating the flames
with an apron,
Mrs. Tanners limbs, back and
hands were severely burned. Two
physicians cared for her. According
to Miss Leese, the first person to the
rescue, Mrs. Tanner had been using
the oven of her gas stove. While
conversing over the telephone she
had her back to the stove and did
not realize her plight until she felt
blaze enveloping her body. She
burned both hands trying to extin-
guish the flames before Miss Leese
responded. Shortly after the arrival
of aid Mrs. Tanner lapsed into I'M
