Pacific, had announced a Monroe doc
trine for Australia. and added:
If We, as a member of a league. in
terfere with the Monroe doctrine of
Australia, or the Monroe doctrine OF
Japan, or OF some other nation, how
long would it be before they would in
terfere with our Monroe dOctrine?'
The Idaho senator criticized report
ed private conferences between Col
Onel House and General SHUTS regard
ing disposition of the German colonies,
an agreement had been reached to sus-
tain the secret treaty between Eng

70 the Editor Of the woman's Page:
Dear Madam would like to say
that I do not approve of the eight hour
day or the union. II there is system
and method in housework as we'll as any
other business, arranged by the wife or
housekeeper who is leader, then there
would be no necessity for unions, etc.
There should be bond of sympathy
and friendly feeling between employer
and employe. / contend that the So
called rich are not interested enough in
their homes to prearrange the work.
They do not care SO long as the girls
are there to wait upon them. Conse-
quently they allow them to ''run
things"
My help have their fully furnished
room and bath to themselves, plenty to
eat and all comforts. II housewives
would be more independent and not de-
pend SO much upon their help, things,
am sure, would be better. ] know
everything that transpires in my home
and give eyery one credit for what she
does. I hope there win be no such

RAINS RESULT
IN DECLINE BY
GRAIN QUOTES
Corn Values Suffer Sharp Drop On
Break in Dry Spell Selling
is Heavy.

Chicago, July 30.-Corn declined
in value today largely as a result
Of scattered rains and a prospect
of more. The highest selling was
on the part of houses with country
connections. Trade, however,
lacked volume. Opening prices,
which ranged from sc to 3ssc low
er. with September 1913 to 1.96, and
December 1.691h to LII, were fol-
lowed by moderate rallies from the
bottom figures Of the initial range.
Toward the last of the session
month-end demand for July gave
strength to that delivery, but other
months showed increased weak
ness on account of belief that rains
were at hand. The market closed
unsettled, IA to 25sc net lower,
with September $1.95b to $1.95As,
and December $1.659s to $1.69.
Oats eased down with corn. After
opening unchanged to &c of in
GLIDING September at soc to 80% C,
the market continued to sag.
Provisions were upheld by re-
newal of strenflth in the hog mar
ket. Weakness of grain exercised
only temporary bearish influence.

new MELONS ON
MART WITH THE
RED NECTARINE
This Week Also Scene Of Departure
Of DeWberries and
BIackberries.

Local markets entertained three
annual visitors for the first time
this season in the persons of nee
tarine, honey dew melon and tur-
lock cantaloupe.
Those familiar with these names
are aware of their excellent gas
tronomic utility, but where they
are less familiar let it be known
that gourmands shout in glee
every summer when any or all of
these three appear, and that the
good qualities of the fruits men
toned are many and various.
Nectarines-the red variety are
in first this year-are just like
freestone peaches with an liberia
favor and a plum consistency and
coating. Their taste is considered
by many TO be superior to most
obtainable fruits. Served plain or
with cream they make a plea ing
dish, while they may also be used
for canning. Their visit is short,
however, one week usually seeing
their end. The honey dew melon is
a popular favorite. Unlike the
common cantaloupe, the percentage
of perfection in a crate of honey
dews is very high, as the favor of
nearly every one may be confidently
expected to be fine and the con-
sistency of every ripe one right.
There are selling at two for 25
cents. The Turlock cantaloupe, so
named because raised in a region
near Turlock, Cal, which is partic-
ularly favorable to the growth of
the small melon, will be found to
be somewhat superior to either the
early or late ordinary crops. 1t
comes in this year as usual right
on the heels of the dw;ndling Cali
fornia cantaloupe crop and proceed
ing the home grown melons by sew
eral weeks.
Home grown egg plant of high
quality started its influx during the
last several days. At 25 cents each
this shiny purple vegetable Is at
tracing a large number of buyers.
Mourn for These.
Dewberries aid blackberries are
no more. Their careers were short
but sweet, and their finish was
sighted two days ago. They served
their purpose well and now they q
gone to a deserved winters rest.
Blueberries, a member of their IA
yored trio, remain to mourn their
loss.

Shall binds or obligations in the
sum Of 100000 be issued by the

the North Side schooIhouse. The
polls will be open from 2 until 5
O'Clock in the afternoon.
AS far as can be learned the
movement to build a new school
has aroused no opposition. The
need for the improvement is plain.
The old building is unsafe and I'M
healthy and is one of the few eye
sores of the cit yof Aledo.
The new structure, if approved by
the voters next week. will be con-
structed on the present high school
site. The old building will not be
torn down but will be used for what
purposes it can serve. The new edi-
fee will be erected to the ease, OF

BEAT BOARD BILL
BUT HURRY BACK
TO SQUARE THINGS

william Brown had a prison rec
ord. He had done time at Ana
mosa and Joliet. He had been
paroled AMI up until a few days
worked as a scayenger about the
village of Keithsburg.
Andy Brown was a brother of
William. Andy had also been in
trouble before but his record was
of somewhat lighter aspect Andy
had wife. All lived together at
Robert Bryant's hotel.
To restrain his lawless proclivi-
ties proved too great a task for
William, however, and he gave Tom
Haney a worthless check for $50.
Then they disappeared, leaving
unsettled a room and board bill of
many months.
Sheriffi John P. Fleming was no
titled and the machinery of the law
began to work. The Browns, with
Mrs. Brown. had fed to Burling-
ton. Word from the police of that
city was received by Sheriff Elem
ing asking whether they should
pick them up.
Meanwhile Andy Brown began to
feel uneasy. Smitten by great re-
morse, he came back to keithsburg
and settled up for check, room,
board, and everything.
Let them go; they settled up, 9"

FINE SHOWER in
MERCER COUNTY
BRINGS RELIEF
Worth Thousands of Dollars to the
Farmers, Saving Corn From
Damage.

Rain, a deluge of it, broke the hot
spell under which Aledo, has suf-
fered for a week past, about mid
afternoon yesterday.
1t was Just what was needed,
asked for, prayed for and hoped
for several days. 1t came in such
quantities that sewer drains proved
unequal to the occasion at several
places in town and the water stood
several feet in depth Here the
small folks enjoyed themselves,
wading, splashing and in some in
stances even swimming. Older peo-
pie looked on in smiling envy. 1t
was great
The storm extended all the way
to Milan with about equal density.
Automobiles who CHANGED to be
caught along the country roads
were forced to put on chains to ne
gotiate what soon were almost i'm
passible roads.
Trouble on the Southern began
Monday night when a~slight rain.
nall was experienced to the north
and east. 1t continued throughout
yesterday. Early in the morning a
condenser at the Edwards river
power house at Matherville burned
out 1t was first though that power
would be available by noon, but
later reports indicated cessation Of
service throughout the remainder
of the day.
Though no cars operated in the
afternoon the daily edition of The
Argus was here on schedule time
and delivered to the door of patrons
as usual, The papers were brought
here through the storm by auto.
II is estimated that yesterdays
rainfall was worth thousands of
dollars to Mercer county farmers,
at the opportune time for
the corn.
