in regard to- the war. is quoted by
Reuters Saloniki correspondent to
the effect that no overtures have
been made to the king beyond an
appeal to him to abandon the path
in which he has persisted.
"Nor does the provisional govern
ment contemplate any further steps
in that direction" the former pre-
mier added. u have no hope that
the king will change his conduct OF
affairs.
His majesty had splendid OPP
portunity to repudiate his engage

they would not enter Sores, Kavala
or Drama; but that opportunity was
allowed to escape, because, forsooth
Constantine was convinced German
legions eventually would come to his
assistance and rescue him from the
hands of the entente powers"
M. Venizelos is quoted as saying

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, Oct 14--Bullsh crop reports

result OF douth the estimates of yield were
being reduced daily. The weekly forecast

PROFESSOR WILSON

George AIDE Says President is
Nice Man, with Lot Of y
Pretty Adjectives.
HIS CABINET is A HANDICAP
AN AIDE ESTIMATE OF
WILSON.

I liked my travelling companions
(the progressively and the scenery,
but man cannot continue on a
journey which offers no terminus.
He (Mr. Wilson, was accus-
toned for years to be dogmatic
and oracular before a lot OF col
lege boys who couldn't talk back.
He finally came to believe that
whenever he said a thing, it was so.
They say he has vision. He has
SO much vision he sees things that
amt.
He is a perfectly nice man who
believes he can solve problems by
talking about them.
He did not speak on the pre-
paredness issue until democratic
politicians had worn a path to the
White House telling him what he
had better say if he wanted to be
reelected.
When a man has just one round
of ammunition to shot he can't af-
ford to stand off on a hillside
and shoot into the air. Progress
sives must recognize the fact that
this year there are only two con-
tending parties and every voter
must either make quick choice or
retire. to the deep woods. This is
no time for grieving over what
might have been. The thing for
every progressive to do is to look
pleased and vote for Hughes.
