Thousands Saw Annual Exhibit at
Fair Grounds at Iron River
Yesterday was "Washburn Day" and
Hundreds from This City Attended
the Annual Exhibit.

Ouly fair show is the opinion
of everyone who has visited the
Bay field County Fair held at the
county fair grounds at Iron
River this week. The exhibits
of grains, grasses, fruits, vege
tables, live stock, fancy work
BAKING goods. etc. were not
large but the attendance dur
ing the three days has been
good.
The fair opened Tuesday when
the exhibits were arranged in
the spacious buildings at the
fair grounds aid the amusement
part of the program began yes
terday. The fail. will close to-
day.
Yesterday was known as
Washburn Day and the business
houses CT the city closed during
the day in order TO permit those
who cared to attend and make
the Journey to Iron River.
Practically every store i'll the
city closed It's doors during the
day aud the attendance from
this city was exceptionally large.
Hundreds made the rip by
automobile while the trains from
this city were well filled with
fair visitors. A goOdly number
wha were unable to attend yes
tegday, made the trip to Iron
River today.
The fair this year shows a lack
Of interest from the exhibit
standpoint. In the large exhibit
hall there were exhibits from
but few sections of the county,
There were also the exhibits of
the Rural Garden Clubs, repre-
senting the work Of the children
along agricultural lines, and
this exhibit attracted a good
deal Of attention because of the
fine quality of the produce ex.
hibited. The schools of Bay
field county were also repre-
sented by exhibits of school
work.
The stock and poultry section
of the fair was good but small.
A small number of pure breds
are being exhibited this year,
showing that the farmers of the
country are interested in i'm
proving their herds. Years ago
there was only a small showing
in the live stock section Of the
fair grounds but this is grow.
ing from year to year and those
attending the fair annually
easily see the progress being
made along this line.
The amusement part Of the
program is hummer. The
string Of fast horses is the
largest IN years and some thrill.
ing races have been staged
There was a good motor cycle
race yesterday and there will be
good automobile race today
along with the horse races.
What was supposed to be the
main atttaction of the fair
fzzled out when Wilbur LARA
bee, air pilot, tipped his ma
chine over when landing at the
fair grounds. A gust Of wind
tipped the machine to one side
just as it was landing and one
wing hit the ground. In the
accident both wings were
broken off, the propeller dam
aged and the running gear pul
out OF commission. Visitors
had to content themselves witt
gazing upon the disabled ma
chine which lay in the field.

rotary and manager of the fund. Is that
eS.6 per cent. OF ali possible assessments
have been paid into the fund. though
such payments are purely voluntary.
One million six hundred thousand dollars

Industries.

Employers in every line of busine IS
have been asked to telephone their help
needs to the United States Employment
Service in the Hall OF Records, where
special efforts are being made to find
positions for men discharged from the
Seventy-seventh Division. as well as Sor
other soldiers. sailors and marines.
To help the campaign for positions
for the fighters the Newark Submarine
Boat Corporation has stationed a repre-
sentative at the Offices OF the bureau to
employ all kinds of shipyard workers.
The company is doing its best for the
service men and is sending many mex
perienced applicants to its training
school.
The rehabilitation OF the metropoli-
tan division meant the release within
n few days OF more than $4,000 men.
While a large percentage OF the soldiers
have old positions awaiting them, those
in charge OF the bureau say that EN-.
ployers can help immensely by telephon-
fng to them. Worth 1647, at any time
during business hours.

REPUBLICANS TRY
TO AVERT "A Split
Lodge, Borah and Johnson
Will Confer To-day.
Special Despatch 20 THs sus.

WASHINGTON. May 11.-An effort to
patch up the threatened split between
Progressives and old line leaders OF the
Republican majority in the Senate will
be made tomorrow at a conference by
Senators Lodge (Mass.). Borah (Idaho)
and johnson (Cal). The Progressives
are opposed to the choice, by old line
leaders, of Senator'S Penrose (Pa.) as
chairman of he Finance Committee ana
Warren (Wyo.) as chairman of tho Ap-
proprlations Committee. Eight of this
branch Of the party are expected to OPP
post these two men in the party confer
ence next wednesday.
Although Senator Borah announced
last night that seven of the Progrsssives
could be counted upon to vote In the
Senate against Senators Penrose and
Warren, which would permit the Demo-
Gratis to name the heads of the Finance
and Appropriations committees, II was
believed here tonight that he could not
count upon such united opposition and
that the threatened revolt would not ma
terialize sufficiently TO endRnger the Re-
publican control of the Senate.
Leaders OF both parties are keenly
watching the situation. The Democrats
are particularly Interested and hopeful.
They take encouragement from the dec
larations Of Senators Borah and Ken
yon that the fight viii go to the Senate
floor.
There has been some talk among the
old line leaders of an agreement with
the Democrats II the Progressives carry
the fight to a vote. Such an agreement
would mean a trade by the Democrats of
an empty honor of organization for pat
ronage. Under II SUFFICIENT Democrats
would fail to vote to offset the failures
of Progressives to vote for the choices
Of the. Republican caucus. This talk,
of seriousness.
Some Republican leaders are pessi-
mistically inclined. but most of them
look for an agreement OF some kind be-
fore Senate organization Is undertaken.

LONDON, May 11.-That doughty old
18th century warrior knight, Sir
William Herbert. like Hamlets ghost,
has ratified from his grave to attend the
twentieth century sittings of the COM
mission appointed by Parliament to re-
port for or against the nationaliEing Of
the coal industry. Lord Tredegar. who
owns $4,000 acres Of coal land, also q
private railway line. all earning a
trifie under a half million dollars a year.
and the Marquis OF Butte, who holds
129, 900 acres, one-third possessing min
eral deposits. yielding him annually
something over the same amount, were
confronted by Sir William on their cross
examination.
MY family was connected with Her
bert family" said Lord Tredegar. du-
biously adding later, 1T have been four
something more to do than to look up
family history In which he was rather
rusty"
Lord Tredegar, whose ancestry ante
dates the Norman conquest. was re-
minded by his own lawyer that some Of
the land In question was purchased ten
years ago from the Duke of Beaufort.
Inc Marquis OF buto Wnen cdlleQ
frankly acknowledged Sir William as
one OF his forebears.
The resurrection Of Sir William had to
do with certain land grants to him be-
fore coal was a world power by King
Edward VI. son of Henry VIII, over
whom Sir William was sort OF royal
guardian. Little Edward was 10 years
old at that time and he reigned only six
and half years.
The Marquis of Butte pressed to state
the consideration Sir William gave for
the land. said: THE only thing know
about 1t is that one OF his services was
raising an army for the King, but there
were other services. too" whereupon Sir
william, ex-Master of Horse, clanked
back under his messy marble slab. The
newspapers daily reveal the private af-
fairs of the Marquis of Butte. Lord Tired
egar, the Duke OF Northumberland.
the Duke OF Hamilton. the Marquis OF
Londonderry and other titled land own
ers, who have cashed handsomely on
mineral rights
Aside from the aristocracy involved
the snatches OF fascinating English his
tory interviewer in the proceedings are
strangely reminiscent OF the United
States Government versus the ore kings
OF Pennsylvania and Colorado. Just
substitute the names of Morgan. Rookie
Teller, Baer. &c, and one gets politico-
economic throwback from the young
republic across the seas

HIGH GRADE MEN SEEK JOBS.
Many Veterans of War Have Ex-
ceptionaI Training.

Lieut.. Eugene L. Mullaney of the
Unemployment Committee for soldiers.
sailors and marines at Park and Pearl
streets called attention yesterday to the
fact that many of the service men seek
ing positions possess high class technical
training. and that many are college
men, who by reason OF the fact that
they entered the army upon completion
of their courses. have had no business
experience.
Among the applicants for places at
the professional division are engineers,
civil, mining, mechanical and chemical,
traffic managers. managers OF power
plants and industrial experts The type
of men sent out to Jobs by the bureau
has been praised by many firms. Libby,
Mcneil & Libby informed the bureau
that ten men employed through its
agency recently are making good in
every respect, and that three have been
marked for better positions.
An ex-servtce man was brought into
the bureau on Saturday after his arrest
for peddling on the street Finding that
he was an experienced veterinary, the
officers were able to get him a Job at
once.

FEMININE STYLES
CALLED IMMORAL
Dr.. Richards Shocks ConUen-
tion of Women's Clubs.

ATLANTIC CIrY. N. j.. May 1.-THE
State Federation of womens Clubs of
New Jersey rustled angrily out OF the
convention hall after the closing session
to-day shocked and considerably irri-
tated over the remarks OF DIR. Florence
N. Richards. who came from Philadel-
phia to speak on social problems. and
confined herself almost exclusively to
condemnation of current styles OF
women's dress. DR.. Richards had even
more to say about what she termed the
general conduct" OF her sex.
Spooning, the new dances, the bathing
suit and the decollete gown were passed
under review by DR.. Richards and
fragrantly arrayed as symptoms Of a
particularly immoral era Mothers who
let their daughters wear gowns that
expose their shoulders ought TO be pun
ished. DR.. Richards held. The gowns
are indecent, tight skirts are imniodest,
the new dances immoral, and bathing
suits were unmentionable.
DR.. Richards Is medical director OF
the William Penn High School for Girls
in Philadelphia and a lecturer for the
social hygiene branch of the War Work
Council. When she had finished her
analysis Of feminine fnery she offered
her programme for the present social
situation, which was for parents to give
their children instruction in sex prob
lens.
Evening gowns. II they are to be
worn at all, should be draped over slips,
the sleeveless arm ought not to appear
at all and the tight skirt should be fur
beloved. DR.. Richards left the conven-
tlon with the assurance that she meant
every word she said, and that she did
not want her words to go unheeded.
The convention adjourned before any
one could take a vote on any OF the
questions raised.

DEBATE DEBS
TURNS TO ANARCHY
Harry Weinberger Evokes
Wrath of Joseph eastman
by Changing the Topic.

Harry Weinberger. anarchist lawyer,
aroused the wrath of Joseph eastman
Of the National Security League last
night by attacking the American Govern
ment and the Roman Catholic Church
In debate on the question of amnesty
for political prisoners.
The debate was decidedly one sided
affair. for It was held before an
audience Of the most radical anarchists
In the city under the auspices Of the
Ferrer School. and they were so bitterly
opposed to Mr.. eastman from the start
that he told them he felt like an
animal brought out to a Roman sacri-
fee"
Charging that Debs and other persons
under sentence for violations OF the
espionage act are the victims of perse-
cution. Mr.. Weinberger said: I'm ages
gone by the Pope of Rome and the
Catholic Church punished those who
dared to think, and this Government Is
doing exactly the same thing now"
Retort of Mr.. eastman.
Mr.. eastman. at the conclusion of the
lawyers talk. arose with face flushed
and said: Il am an American and a
Catholic. and am proud of both facts
I was invited here by Mr.. Weinberger
to talk on the question of the evening.
/ understood that this was to be a de-
bate on the question of amnesty to po-
litical prisoners, and not religious
argument or a talk upon all the affairs
of the world in general"
He spoke to n house ninety-nine per
cent anarchist that accepted his remarks
with jeers, itching for an opportunity to
heckle him when the talk should be fin
iehed. His own three-quarter hour talk
on patriotism and other kindred sub
Jects as well might have been delivered
to 4 cage of jackals.
Mr. Weinberg in his address did not
advocate revolution. but championed the
poor people who are suffering imprison-
ment merely because they wanted to
shatter things to bits and remould them
nearer to their hearts desire"
Regarded rs n Plutocrat.
Mr.. eastman, however. construed this
as advocacy OF violence and said the
majority of the people of the United
States were opposed to such things
What people are opposed to revolu-
tom shouted an anarchist in the rear
OF the hall when It was announced that
questions were In order: the working
people or the capitalists"
II am working man." answered Mr..
eastman. II work very hard and get
very little for It."
The audience generally looked upon
Mr.. eastman as belonging to the plu-
tocracy. and one remarked in a loud
voice, Very significant name"
81 assure you that ]. might have spent
a far more delightful Sunday evening
elsewhere" he told his audience at the
conclusion of the meeting as he left the
hall without shaking hands with Mr..
Weinberger.

as he did once upon q time, but ne never
did Ike Hoke Smith ut ali, and Dorsey
would appeal to him as the lesser Of
the two evils. And then Senator Smith
has been In public life a long time, and
things have been done that Watson
could turn into good vituperative read
Ing matter for his Je6ersontdn. That Is
meat and drink TO Watson.
The thing that Gov. Dorsey will have
TO beat IL he Is to go 10 the Senate Is
not so much Hoke Smiths popularity,
but the Hoke Smith machine, which is
probably one OF the smoothest running
pieces OF political machinery In the
South. 1t was started O. great many
years ago. when Senator Smith defeated
Little Joe" Brown for Governor, and
1t has been added to and increased In
strength as the years went by.
Since Senator Smiths strength has
largely been due to the county unit sys-
tenn. and as the county unit system now,
by all the figuring of the political
sharks, seems to favor Gov. Dorsey, the
general opinion here Is that Dorsey has
an excellent chance to send Senator
Smith back TO private life and law
office. At any rate Georgia politicians
are preparing for one of the bitterest
political battles they have ever had.

DR.. DAILY has delivered many ad-
dresses during the campaign with Cronin
as his principal target He said. that
the latter selected tho Home Rule
nominees and that they bear his label
and represent the interests which fis-
ured in the purchase several months
ago by the City Commissioners Of the

water proposition was rejected at three.

Edwin P. Morrow Probable
Nominee for Governor at
Convention Wednesday.

Special Despatch TO THE suS.
LEXINGTON, KY. May 1.-THE Repub-
lican State convention to nominate can
didates for the regular election next
November will be held here wednesday
and Thursday. The delegates will adopt
a platform declaring for State and ma
tional prohibition for all time and en-
forcement of anti-liquor laws, woman
suffrage and possibly declare for re-
peal OF the present State tax laws,
which have become onerous
The ticket that will be nominated
according to the slate tonight is: For
Governor, Edwin L. Morrow of Somer-
set: Leutenant-Gove 8. Thurston
Ballard. Louisville; Auditor. John ].
Craig, Covington Treasurer, James A.
Wallace. Irvine: Attorney General. S.
S. Willis. Ashland: Secretary of State.
]. l.. Mccoy. Ewingstille: Commissioner
Of Agriculture. w. C. Hanna, Shelby
vile: Superintendent Of Public Instruc-
ton. r. p. Green. Bowling Green.
Every man on this slate is q seasoned
campaigner and every section of the
State is represented. The Republicans
declare they have an excellent chance TO
win Kentucky this year and are holding
their convention early to get their plat
form before the people as long as pos
sible before the Democratlcs primary in
August. Every candidate. for the Legis-
lature will be a dry and for woman
suffrage. according to announcements
now being made.
Morrow. who will be the Republican
choice for Governor, was defeated three
years ago by a few over 300 votes by
A. o. Stanly, who retires next month TO
become United States Senator. and at
least one county mass convention. by Re-
publicans yesterday declared Morrow had
really been elected over Stanly.
The Republicans are likely to offer at
the United States Senatorial primary
Richard p. Ernst of Covington, a lead
ing lawyer. who has offices in his home
town and Cincinnati. The Democrats
are losing no time in getting ready for
the campaign. Candidates for the Gov
ernorship already number half a dozen.
Col II. II. Denhardt of Bowling Green,
who has just returned from France with
a fine war record, is far in the lead. But
he faces at least one other soldier can
didate and possibly two. Col. George
Smith is on his way from Coblenz, and
Lieut-CoL s. NJ. Wilson, now at Camp
Dix. is expected home In a few days.
The Democratic party is also COM
mtted to woman suffrage and prohibit
ton by action taken some time ago.
There is. however. a wet and dry split
in the party which leaders are trying
to patch up.
