Inouestionably Wilson will be nominated by the con vention which began today in St. Louis and the og en' will he between him and Hughes Much depends on "ie' e the Prooressves will run candidate or not but oIher wise Hughes is probably the strongest candidate Ue e ubcans could have put forward at the present Ie anu he is the strongest candidate because o1 facts coecVe not with internal affairs but with questions reaVg 'o the Furopean war AS matter ot fact the slogan ol Huohes which was told in the cables ot yesterday OD l1ted Americansm has been specially invented WlVnoU M shadow of doubt after careful thought as to the best manner by which to keep people o1 all opnnonS o 'e We" in line The proGeruans have come out openly m favor of Hnobes The Fatherand paper with probably great er influence today amongst great number ot people than any other paper in the United States has declared for Huches did so before his nomination and dld so Ill De half of German Americans who, they calm have two ml lion votes or more Under ordinary circumstances no ha tiona party would have accepted the word unuluVeu Americanism as a campaign slogan.

 Another fact which bears out the belief that this ques- ton is regarded as important in the coming election IS that President Wilson has been quoted saying that after the nominations he will make towards bring ing about peace in Europe.
 All this may seem to be a question foreign to the politics of the United States but it is not There is no country on earth worth while today whose internal po
 tics are not affected by the supreme struggle and there is no country with soul so dead to refuse to be agitated by it. It is merely the substitution of international question for local issue and it makes men no worse Americans to be interested in universal affairs It may however make them less provincial.

MILITIA IN THE MOVIES
Allen Krause, Photographer, Took Views
Of the Departing Soldiers
On Monday

Allen Krause, the popular photog-
rapher and proprietor of the Krause
Studio at Ais North Front street,
will leave for the twin cities tomor-
row and will take with him the two
hundred feet of moving picture film
which he exposed at the depot when
the soldier boys left for Fort Smell
ling, to have it finished as a moving
picture. Mr.. Krause only had two
hundred feet of film left, having had
difficulty in securing as large a
supply as he wished, but he got
some excellent views of the company
at the depot and of the scenes around
the special train. When the picture
is completed it will be shown at the
local picture theatres. Mr.. Krause
will also endeavor to secure about
two thousand feet of film from some
well known dealers at the cities, and
if successful he will take a moving
picture of Mankato's historical pa
geant at Sibley park on July 4.

SWAT FLY; CARRIES
ABOUT MUCH POISON
Insect Is Menace to the People,
More Especially Those
Little Folks
UNITED Press Dispatch.1

Washington, June 28.-The ordi-
nary house fly carries about with him,
recent government experiments show,
an amount of uncleanliness equal TO
two to three per cent of his weight.
If the average man were so unclean
as that, he would have on his body
about four pounds of filth.
A horse or cow as dirty as fly
would carry 20 to 25 pounds. The fly
does not weigh much, but it can har-
Dor millions of disease giving germs.
AS matter of fact, the dirt on fly
about one half bacteria bacteria Of
many kinds, large and small, thick
and thin, long and short.
If out of its abundance of bacteria
the fly deposits typhoid germ in a
can of milk, there is every likelihood
that in short time there will be
enough typhoid germs in that milk to
make it dangerous, frequently a
fatal, poison.
In the experiments in this subject
conducted by the Department of Agri-
culture, number of flies were caught
and washed in sterile, distilled water.
Uncleanliness to the amount of from
two to three per cent of the flies
weight settled at the bottom of the
tubes, and Of this about half was bac-
terra.
In addition there remained in solu-
tion in the water enough dirt to dis
color it.
The fly can and does carry the
germs of tuberculosis.
Flies which had been allowed ac-
cess to animals suffering from this di-
sease were caught and washed in ster-
lie water.
incubation tests from them subse-
quently proved that they bore living,
virulent tubercle bacilli

Promise of Feasts When the City Of Ell Paso Is

Continue

Ell Paso, Texas, June 2S.-It is un-
derstood that the Mexican soldiers
look forward with great glee to the
capture of Ell Paso in the event of
the outbreak of war. Half fed and
poorly equipped in every way, the
soldiers, it is understood, are being
promised by their officers, that just
as soon as Ell Paso is taken, they will
have plenty of food and will have
their wants readily satisfied.
Anti-American Demonstrations.
Reports indicate that violent anti
American demonstrations are con-
tinuing in many parts of Northern
Mexico, particularly at Santa Rosa

trainloads of American refugees are
being constantly subjected to insult.

MASSING HER SOLDIERS
Government Is Becoming Much
Alarmed Over the Attitude
Of Greece
UNITED Press Dispatch.]

London, Eng, June 28.-The war
interest has again shifted to the Bal
kans. There are new reports to the
effect that the kingdom of Roumania
is about to enter the war on the side
of the allies. The dispatches that
come from Bulgaria are very much
censored, but they indicate that Bull
garia is massing troops along the
Roumanian frontier, fearing an in
vasion from that direction. 1t is un-
derstood, too, that the Bulgarian gov
ernment has become very much
alarmed at the readiness with which
Greece recently yielded to the de-
mands of the allies. 1t is feared by
Bulgaria that Venezilos, the former
Greek premier, who has always IA
vored Greece joining in with the al
lies, will return to power, and that
Greece and Roumania might attack
Bulgaria simultaneously.

GROWERS OF BERRIES
WOULD HAVE SOCIETY
Believe That the Association
Gould Assist in Marketing
Their Product

Local berry growers have good
reason for the belief that they should
form an association for the better
marketing of their crop, conditions
of the market today serving to con-
vince them of the advisability of
such an association. Buyers as well
as growers are also of the opinion
that such an association would fa-
cilitate, both marketing and buying.
All berry growers who have been
interviewed on te matter seem to be
fully agreed that the selling condi-
tions at present are very unsatisfac-
tory, and that there is really no es-
tablished price by which to buy or
sell. A large amount of the growers
time is wasted in either peddling
their berries from store to store, or
from house to house, which is bad
condition for the trade in general.
Local berry growers should form
an association properly officered,
with one salesman from among their
number, whose duty it would be to
market the berry crop, and establish
a uniform price, so the market would
not be full one day and bare the next.
Local fruit houses take care OF a
great share of the surplus, but can
not do a satisfactory berry business
for the reason that half of the time
they do not know if they will get
enough berries to fill their orders or
not, or if they are getting too many
berries and have no orders. The
marketing conditions which local
berry growers have encountered this
year should convince them that an
association is necessary. All that is
needed is for someone to make a
start in the right direction, and make
for better conditions for the berry
growers.
