He had just enough presence of

with great confusion. The whale
had evidently been killed by some

the water. After the ninth day, ac-
cording to seamen's understanding. it
rose to the surface and fioated.
The fish is now on exhibition at

Bay State congressman goes far to
prove the dry" contention as'to the
element that is fighting for personal

ham attempting physical violence
upon those who dare oppose their

morally progressive must be proud
of their representatives. These gen.

which they with the booze interests
have exhausted every means of
strong arm tactics and trickery to
violate Maine Jaw and perpetuate a
market for the goods from which
they and their state derived profit
and revenue. Verify the personal

hypocritical than from the lips of

WHY THE H. c.. L,
WILL CONTINUE

Philadelphia. July 24-The cost Of
living is likely to stay high for a
long time to come in the opinion Of
the Philadelphia Board Of Trade,
This view is a result Of a compila-
ton of statistics from many lines of
trade and industry.
According to these figures the adj
vance in prices in this country since
1914 has been about 107 per cent, in
Canada lis per cent; Great Britain
1873 per cent. and France 235 per cent.
1t is pointed out that, in spite Of
material reductions in the price of
steel, the advance in other commo-
dities since the armistice has been
so great that the average price
schedules have been reduced but 81
per cent. below prices prevailing
Oct. l, 1918.
The following are given as rea-
sons why wages will not be much
less for a considerable period Of
time:
Practical stoppage Of immigration
SeAeSS ASAH' NSk0 wing LlllS country Oh
several millions of workers who
would normally have come to US and
thus have relieved the labor shortage
which confronts American industry
upon the resumption Of capacity op-
egations.
Retention in the government mill.

ers, which, it is declared will doubt
less continue an indefinite period.
Creation Of new industries such as

calls and dyes.
Urgent demand for building and
construction Of every class due to
their having. been forcibly held back
for several years.
Shortage of world food supplies
and uniformly high prices.

 it disabuses the minds of some of them
 of the theory that they are being op-

 The partisans know that if they are cap

 the forest country as city dwellers know
 their own streets. they are seldom cap
 tured. In scouting they are as tireess
 as wild animals.
 The government of the north for long

 ulation of the town
 It became clear that sound evolution from anarchy toward patriotism had taken place among the people, that the efforts of the partisans, though of local character must be supported, and that it was absolutely necessary to create suit l able atmosphere for further organization of partisan attachments. A big commit tee including all political parties has been formed in Archangel to aid in this plan, and a new partisan newspaper is to be published for the benefit of the fighting peasants.

'SALON|KI NOTED
 AS MELTING POT
Money Changers\Have Been a Fixture in Saloniki From
 Time ImmernOrial
By Associated Press

Saloniki, March 15.-The American vis- itor finds here an extraordinary mixture oe races, tongues, beliefs and customs. Sa- loniki is literally melting pot of hu-
 manity. No other city in the world. un- less it be one of the great American conters, is so thoroughly cosmopolitan. Greeks, Mongols, Turks, Slavs, Teutons, Italians and Europeans mingle and each understands the language of the other. The market place is a babel of tongues The lowliest street peddler speaks at lea st four languages.
 But these diverse races associate to- gether only for business purposes. In their religious beliefs, aspirations and sentiments great gulf separates them.
 Each has a different ideal and dis tinct viewpoint of life In Macedonia all religions are tolerated. SalonilIi. or Thes- ss lonica as it was called in early times, is said to have been the door by which Christianity entered Indeed, devout res idents relate with pride that it was here the Apostle Paul, after having evangel- ized Syria and Asia Minor. came to preach the gospel to the unbelievers of Mace dcnia-
 The money-changer has been fixture in SalonilSi from time immemoral Dur ing the war he reaped rich harvest on the fluctuating value of the currency of the war-affected countries. The Amer ican dollar was the only currency that he could not buy at profit. 1t resisted all the vicissitudes and varying fortunes of the war and held steadily at l00 cents when all the other money of the world was fluctuating.
 Saloniki is essentially a Jewish city, for there are more than 10000 Jews who make their homes here. They control the bulk of the business. About 80 per cent of them are Spanish Hebrews, whose an cestors were driven from Spain by Ferdi- nand and Isabella in the fifteenth century. To indicate the wide diversity of other races, however it is sufficient only to say that there are five Greek newspapers, l seven Spanish-Hebre four French. three Serbian, one Turkish and one English.
 The lone English newspaper Is published by the British army for the use of it's
 men in the Levant.
 If the Apostle Paul could come to Sa- lcniki today he probably would preach to the Thessalonians a gospel of cleanliness as well as of piety, for dirt seems to be an important part of the city and of the people Hygenic and sanitary methods, as the allied military authorities soon 1 learned, are woefuliy primitive During the allied occupation thousands of Brit | ish French, Italian and Serbian soldiers I succumbed to malaria, typhoid and other diseases arising from lack of drainage and sanitation. Through all the centuries plaques and epidemics have visited the city and carried off thousands of it's in- habitants Being on the principal thor oughfare from Asia into Europe, Saloniki has been the means of spreading Asiatlc cholera to the towns washed by the Medi- terranean.

WATER FROM DIPPING
 VATS KILLS FIVE COWS
Valuable Animals Drink Water Taken From Vats and Death
 Results, State Owners

Five cows have died in Jefferson county as a result of drinking water from the dipping vats, according to letters read at the meeting of the board of revenue yes terday. The cows were owned by T. J. F'ulster and J. B. Albrittain, of Warrior, and J. l.. Hardy. of Bessemer. These people allege that the vats in this vii cinity were cleaned and the water taken therefrom left where the animals could get to it and as a result died. It was stated the cows killed were valued at s1Oo each with the exception of a Hol- stein. which was valued at $125. As this matter does not come under the board, President Jere Gwin was authorized to write a letter to Dr. w. L. Endsley, of the United States bureau of animal in- dustry, and turn the matter over to him.
 A delegation from Palos and Bessie mines appeared before the board and ask ed for improvements on the roads in that vicinity. The board expects to visit these sections immediately and map out plans for the relief of the residents.
