MILITIA RUSHED TO BORDER
Part of the Texas National Guard Is
Ordered To the Border To
Prevent a Clash.

Longview, TeXas.-Nearly 200 mem
bers of the Texas national guard from
Dallas and Nacogdoches, ordered here
by Governor w. P. Hobby to prevent
further clashes between whites and
negroes, were arriving by train and
automobile. The situation remains
quiet after a clash, during which four
white men were wounded when a small
party of whites was fired upon by
negroes, estimated to have numbered
about 20. Reports that one negro had
been killed by shots returned by the
whites could not be confirmed. City
and county officials expressed the be-
lief that there would be no further
trouble.

PLAN STRIKE VOTE
IN STEEL PLANTS
DEFINITE ACTION TO BE TAKEN
AT A CONFERENCE IN
PlTTsBURG JULY 20.
Recognition of the Unions and collec-
tive Bargaining May Be Chief De-
mands If Walkout Is Ordered When
Representatives Meet.

Washington.-Rep or "
affiliated international unions of work
ers in the steel industry at a meeting
here adopted a resolution recommend
ing that strike vote be taken among
their membership.
Definite action on the recommended
ton will be taken at conference or
the International union Presidents, to
be held in Pittsburg July 20
Representatives of the union said
the object of the strike, If voted, would
be to enforce recognition OF the
unions and collective bargaining by
the steel industry, which always has
operated on on "open-shop" basis.
Union Representatives claimed that
a letter written by President Gompers,
Of the American Federation of Labor,
to Judge Ebert Fl. Gary, as President
of the American Iron and Steel Insti-
tute, at the time of the federation s
Atlantic City convention, to ascertain
the position of steel employers with
regard to recognition Of the unions,
had not been answered. Failure on
the part of the steel interests to re-
spond, they said, led to the recon-
1nendatiOn for a strike vote
Since the establishment of national
committee to head the "a affiliated in
ternational steel unions was author
lied by the American Federation OF
Labor more than year ago, union rep
resentatives said, membership in the
unions had increased until they now
embrace from % to 90 per cent of the
steel workers in all the important
plants of the country.

WILSON ADDRESSES SENATE
Peace Treaty and League OF Nations
Covenant Placed Before the
Senate.

Washington.-Th peace treaty,
with it's League of Nations covenant,
was placed before the Senate by Pres
-ident Wilson in an address in which
he accounted to the country for his
part in the negotiations at Versailles.
The League, declared the President,
was born of the conviction of practi-
cal statesmen that an international
concert had become world necessity
TO end the old order and guarantee
civilization. He asserted that in such
q concert the world looked confidently
to America for leadership, and added,
that while the treaty might not be ex-
actly as the American delegation
would have written 1t, no vital princi-
ple had been sacrificed by the neces-
sary compromises. The Senate, al
ready divided in bitter fight over the
League proposal, received the Presi-
dent with cheers and listened to his
words In grave silence.
When he concluded there was anoth-
er burst of cheering until he had
passed from the chamber and gone TO
his Capitol office, where he talked for
an hour with Senators who wished to
ask him specific features of the treaty
or of the negotiations. In these con-
ferences the President discussed free
" such subjects as the disposition of
Shantung, the German indemnities
and Irish freedom. In his address,
however, there was no direct reference
to the questions around which the Sen
ate debate has conferred, the President
declaring he could not construe de-
tails of the treaty i'm a short address.

BLOCKADE OF
GERMANY ENDS
NO PASSPORTS TO BE ISSUED
UNTIL PROCLAMATION OF
PEACE HAS BEEN ISSUED.
Payment For the Goods Which the
United States Sends To Germany
Must Be Made Under System OF
Credits Arranged by Private Capital.

Washington.-Th blockade against
Germany is to be lifted Immediately,
according to advices received here
from Paris This action will permit
the resumption of trade between Ger
many and the United States within
few days, it was announced.
Acting Secretary of State Polk an
nounced that blanket licenses would be
issued for transactions of American
firms and that details would be given
within 48 hours after decision by
legal experts as to whather or not
formal declaration by the President
would be necessary.
Trading in all commodities, except
dyestuffs, chemicals and potash, con-.
troll over which will be exercised by
the Preparations Commission set up by
the peace treaty, will be unrestricted,
1t was said.
American firms doing business with
Germany must send their agents into
that country without passports, how
ever, as these can not be issued until
the proclamation Of peace. 1t also was
said at the State Department that
there was no certainty when American
Consuls would be sent to Germany.
Payment for the goods which this
country sends to Germany must be
made under system Of credits to be
arranged later through private capital,
officials said. Details for this system
have not been formulated.
While Germany has large quantities
Of goods ready to be exported, officials
doubted that there would be great de-
mand for them In this country, and
consequently the trade balance in IA
vor Of the United States is expected to
be large.
Germany was said to be In imme-
date and pressing need of raw mate
rails Of almost all kinds, particularly
cotton and copper, in order to rehabil-
ltate her industries.

Toledo, O.-The Toledo Railways

street cars In Toledo at midnight, July
30. under terms Of an ordinance signed
by Mayor Schneider. The ordinance
was adopted by City Council a week
ago. The unusual spectacle of
metropolitan city without street rail-

BIC POTATO YIELD
Western Canada Man Raised GOO
Bushels on TWO Acres.
Ne Thinks He Did Pretty Well, but
There Were Even Larger Crops
In the Neighborhoo
Stock Men Prosper.

AS q by-product the yield of potatoes
on the farm of Ben Pawson Of Coal
dale, Alberta, was somewhat OF pay
ing proposition. Coaldale is In the
Medicine Hat district Of Alberta. Med
icine Hat is a place, pictured In the
mind Of many Americans, where the
weather man holds high carnival, ana
when he wants to put a little life or
spirit into the people just moves the
mercury down few notches. The
rascal has thus given Medicine Hat o
rather unenviable place on the map
But 1t isn't half as bad as 1t Is pic
tSred. Anyway, Ben Pawson likes It.
Last wear he grew six hundred bush
els Of potatoes on two acres OF land
that had no special preparation. ana
only the usual precipitation. or rain,
ms the less cultured would call 1t.
When he couldn't work at his hay or
grain. because Of the damp mornings,
he gave them some attention. And
then evenings between supper ana
chores and bedtime he gave them some
work. Anyway his yield was six hum
dred bushels, and he sold the Wnole
lot for 1886. Ben is satisfied. sun
there were larger yields than this IN
the neighborhood.
If one might speak of hogs In the
same breath in which you speak OF POI
tatoes there is nothing in the ethics
of literature that would create de-
barment. Taking advantage OF TINS
license it will not be out Of place to
state that large potato yields are not
the only feature of interest in this
new and interesting country. Amongst
others hogs are having good deal OF
attention. Not long ago, hogs reacneu
the $1,000 mark on the Calgary Market
IT doesn't cost much to raise hog
and very little to bring him to weight
of 200 pounds. Don't cost much! Ger
tainly not. But what about the man VINO
recently paid $3.50 for Duroc Jersey
Boar? That was all right. That man
knew what he was doing. He was uo~
ing what a great many other farmers
In Western Canada are doing TO-DAY.

son that western Canada is looming
large in the live stock world. The best
is none too good. The same may be
said Of horses, cattle, yes, and sheep
too. The very best sires and dams
Of the best breeds are purchased. And
while big prices are paid, it is felt that
the demand for pure-bred stock az
home and abroad will bring returns
which will warrant any reasonable
