WAS GASSLESS SUNDAY
Eagle River Gas Burners Ad-
hered to the Request Made
By the Government for
Sunday.

And it can be said that Eagle
River observed the request of the
government by making it a gas
less Sunday-that is the unvar-
nished truth insofar as it was in
the power of the reporter in find
ing out that there was no viola
tions by either of the service sta
tious or joy-rlders during the
entire day.
One must hand it to the Ameri-
can people when it comes to as
listing the government in the
trials of war. They are with the
boys from start to finish. 1t can
be said from reports from outly-
ing towns throughout the entire
county that the gas wagon
that variety used for jov-riding-
had a rest Sunday. Many were
the gallons of gasoline thereby
stored away for the use of the
Allies in making Fritz "hop it"
as the Tommies would say when
thew and their American and
French comrades put the big and
little tanks in action and chase
hell out of the boches.
Touring cars were a minus
quantity Sunday in Eagle River
and those that did pass thru
were not very bold but seemed
to be willing to fade away as
soon as possible. One car on its
way to Milwaukee showed the
true American spirit by putting
their car in a garage and laying
over all day at the Hotel Austin.
This is the spirit that will win
the war. Let us see every service
station follow next Sunday the
rule as laid down, and let the
pleasure seeker, local and foreign,
follow it. Help by saving gas.
You are poor American if you
do not.

Agreement in Senate for Passage of Prohibition
 Bill Seems in Sight
PRESIDENT WILSON
 NOT OPPOSED TO BILL
Proposal to Extend Time Limit From January l to July I Approved by Prohis and Opponents .Convinced V
 That Bill Cannot Be Defeated

Washington, August 26. Nation-wid bone dry'' pro- hibition, effective July l, 1919, and continuing during the war, at least, loorned today as a strong probability through compromise in Congress.
 An agreement for passage of legis- lation to stop sales of all intoxicating beverages on that date. leaders of both wet and dry factions in the Senate stated tonight seemed to be in sight. President Wilson was represented as not opposing the Legislation and sena- tors believed the House would accept the proposal under negotiation, A definite "gentieman's agreement" in the Senate is expected in few days
 The war time prohibition bill pend- ing in the Senate came up for consid- eration today under the consent agree ment made several weeks ago giving it right-of-way until disposed of, but was temporarily displaced while the Senate proceeded with the man power bill Then leaders supporting and fighting the prohibition legislation proceeded with corridor and cloakroom discussions on the compromise.
 As it now stands. the bill would stop sale of intoxicants January l next At President Wilson's sugges- tion according to Senator Sheppard of Texas, prohibition advocate, postpone ment of the date was agreed to by spokesman of both factions. The Pres ident, it was stated, believes addition al time should be given for financial and other adjustments.
 Tn today's negotiations most of the prohibition advocates were agreeable to fixing July l as the date. They first insisted that it should be April |, but majority were said to have con- sented to the later date. Opponents of the legislation were declared to be convinced that 1t cannot be defeated. and to be satisfied with the proposed extension of time.
 Formal conclusion of an agreement is expected to pave the way for pas- sage of the bill by the Senate late this week or early next week.
