IRISH PEACE AWAITS
FORMAL ACCEPTANCE
Enlarged Offer Would Make
Ireland a Republic i'm
All but Name
(By United PresS)

Dublin, August 1.---Settlement of
the Irish question waits only formal
acceptance, according to authOrita-
tive information here today. Presi-
dent De Valera and his cabinet were
said to have accepted an enlarged Of
fer from Great Britain, which will
make Ireland a republic in every
thing but name.
1t was reported that Arthur
.O'Buien, who returned frcEo. London
yesterday, carried an important COM
munication from Lloyd George. Be
fore a formal announcement of the
agreement is made it lis, expected old
members of the Irish parliament will
be released and permitted to ratify
the decision.
DeValera ALREADY has called for
such session this week and arrange
ments probably had been made for
release of their members still in pris-
on. Details of the settlement were
withheld, but the basis Of it is that
ireland is to have the standing of a
dominion with even greater power
than Canada.

Polls to Be Open From 4 to
O'Clock to Vote ayes"
or "No" on Site
"BUM STEERS" ADVANCED
TO INFLUENCE VOTERS
Voters Urged to Look at Site
in Its True Light and Vote
for Interest of All
Beginning at A o'clock

afternoon, citizens of Bemh g
are entitled to vote at a school {
ton will be offered an opportunity
cast their ballots for or against tn
old site of the high school as a pos
sible site for the new high school
building, which is to be constructed
here as soon as possible after site
has been designated by the voters, at
a cost of about 1926, 900. Three cleo
lions have already been held. The
first resulted in no ajority for any
of three proposed sites, including the
old site. The second defeated the
proposed Bixby avenue site, which
led in the first election. The third
defeated the Irvine avenue site,
which stood second place in the first
election.
In response to a petition entered
by citizens and freeholders, who are
pushing for the old school site, the
school board has called another spe-
cial election for tomorrow. The polls
will be open from 4 O'Clock to y
o'clock, and those who can vote dur
ing the afternoon are urged to do so
in order to make room for those who
are by necessity, forced to vote after
the supper hour. The election will
be he'd at the Central school build
ing.
Those who are boosting for the old
site are advancing the "dope" that
sufficient additional ground can be
secured by condemning the west half
of the block in front of the old school
and also, by narrowing the streets at
either side. 1t is easily seen, how
ever, that such action would mean
the purchase of that property at high
prices, much higher than a much
more suitable tract, in what is be-
lieved will be a better location, would
cost the district. AS far as narrow
ing the streets is concerned, it is safe
to say that just the opposite action is
customary when site is selected for
such an institution.
1t has also been circu'at among
the voters that the old site would J.
lost to the district and revert to it's
former owners should the district Sc
lect another site for school build
ing and attempt to dispose of the old
site. This has been investigated
thoroughly by number of interested
parties and it has been found that
there is no 'string" attached to the
deeds in any way, and that the old
site is the property Of the district and
can be disposed of as the district sees
fit.
The origin of such propaganda is
not known, but it is believed that it
was started by those who would re-
ceive direct benefit if the old site was
selected again.
Those who are to vote on the prop
osition tomorrow are urged to look
the matter over in it's true light, even
if personal investigation is necessary,
and then 60 to the polls and vote,
with the interests of their children or
their friends children at heart. 1t is
expected that an exceptional large
vote will be polled, and it is urged
that every voter cast his or her ballot
as early as possible after the polls
are opened.

1eal 1fesa( QSm{E6R2

The story goes back toA the old days of the moonshiners' battles with revenue agents, the mountaineers not being able to understand why they were not permitted to make their own whskey, and so defed the law continually.
 Then. when the government agents get on their trail, the mountaineers banded together and fought to the death. One of these terrific battles is shown in this picture.
 It is fought in the mountain dis trict Tn the old feudal style, men hiding wherever they saw a head exposed, or suspected that someone was lurking. Naturally no bullets were used when men fired point blank at each other. but they were used on occasion and the chips from rocks are seen flying where the bull lets strike just above the mems heads
 Men are seen. apparently hit, tum- bling down the ravines, into creeks, and falling on all sides. Desperate chances were taken by the players and the whole battle is made so realistic in the picture that it ap- pears just as. real as one of the actual mOuntainecr fights.
