Lloyd Georges effort to arrive at a
friendly solution of the Irish trouble
by inviting De Valera and an associ-
ate to confer in London with him and
with Sir James Craig, premier of Ul-
ster, appears to have failed as have
all other attempts to settle the row.
Craig agreed to the conference, but lie
Valera has baked. AT first the Irish
president wrote to Lloyd George a
temporizing letter, and invited Craig
to meet him in Dublin for an exchange
of views. Craig declined. and De
Valera wrote him: "Mr. Lloyd
Georges proposal, because of its i'm
| plications, is impossible Of acceptance
in its present form. Irish political
differences should be adjusted and
| can, I believe, be adjusted on Irish
soil. 1t is obvious that in negotiating
| peace with Great Britain the Irish del
egation ought not to be divided, but
| should act as a unit on some common
principle"
A London newspaper says the au-
thorities have discovered and frus-
trated a plot to murder the British
| cabinet ministers. 1t says the police
are seeking three men sent to Lon
don to do the assassinating. They
are a French medical student, an Irish
man from the western part of the
United States and a Spaniard. The
same paper declares the forces of the
Royal Irish constabulary are to be
uuadrupled at once.

of the senate repeal of the war reso-

additional section giving still further

Austria Hungary. So that squabble

Notwithstanding the imprisoned
protests Of many congressman and the
earnest arguments Of many physicians,
the house last week passed the So
called Willis-C Campbell bill designed to
fOrestall the execution Of a regulation
providing for the prescription Of beer
and light wines as medicine held by
former Attorney General, Palmer to
be within the law. The vote was $50
to 90. The measure is now in the
hands of the senate, and Senator

Despite the fact that the new tariff
will produce a huge revenue, the need
of reducing government expenditures
is as pressing as ever, and President
Harding and Director of the Budget
Dawes seem determined to bring about
that result. They met last week with
the cabinet and the heads of all the
bureaus-the first meeting of the kind
ever held-and had a heart to heart
talk on means to meet the emergency.
Mr.. Harding quickly gave the o 0
to Mr.. Dawes and that vigorous chi
cagoan told the gathering In plain
language what he planned to do and
what the others must do to help him.
Then he added:
1.-THE permanent success Of the bud
get system depends upon certain basic
principles, which at its inception must

concept and rules of action, that they
never hereafter will be questioned.
1.-THE budget bureau must be i'm
partial, impersonal, and nonpolitical."
In concluding, he ordered the bureau
chiefs to their feet and, holding up his
hand, recited the following pledge, ad-
dressed to the President:
These men, of whom l m one,
realize the perplexity of your position,
realize that the business of the coun-
try Is PROSTATE, that its working men
are out of employment. that we are
faced with memorable necessity of re-
ducing expenditures, and we propose,
just as we did four years ago to win
the war. to try to do 1t. And that's all
we can do"

Rather unexpectedly, King Constan-
tine refused to defer his projected
offensive against the Turkish Nation
alists and permit the allies to try to
mediate. 1t was believed he knew
the Turks were getting ready to at
tack with Bolshevist aid and deter
mined to strike first. The British eX-
erted extreme pressure on the Greeks,
and up to the time of writing the only
fighting has been a rather bloody con-
fict while the Greeks were withdraw
ing from Ismid. Thursdays news dis
patches indicated that Constantine had
good grounds for his apprehension.
The allied troops in Constantinople
were called into action to forestall a
vast uprising planned by the Turks
and the BOlsheviki, which was to be
accompanied by the destruction of pub
lie buildings. The Bolshevik head
quarters were raided, quantities of
weapons seized and several ringlead-
ers arrested.
In the death roll of the week ap-
pear two notable names. Charles ]
Bonaparte, eminent citizen of Balti.

Roosevelt administration. died at his
country home. He was a Granddaughter
Of the great Napoleon. Lady Ran.
dolph Churchill, who was Jennie
Jerome of New York, passed away
as the result of injuries received las
May. Probably no other American
woman has had 30 great an influence
on British public affairs. She wa,

There was rejoicing in England at
the news that the great strike of Brit
ish coal miners had been ended n
that the men would return to the
pits on July 4. The government
grants a subsidy of Ter million pounds
to avert the hardships of the next
three months due to wage reductions.
BY the terms of the settlement a new
wage basis will come into effect for
the next eighteen months whereby the
miners receive 20 per cent above the
pre-war scale of wages, with an ad-
ditional share of profits, which will
be regulated by the creation of a ma
tional board and district boards. The
strike thus ended lasted "a days and
is considered the most injurious Eng
land ever suffered, because it crippled
so many industries and affected all
classes Of the population.

President Harding, anxious to have
the controversy over the naval holt
day" plan ended, wrote to Congress
man Mondell a letter saying that he
was vastly more concerned with the
attitude of the congress on this Ques-
ton than I am as to the form Of *
pressing that attitude" When this let
ter was read to the house, Mr.. Mondell
and all the others who had wanted
the disarmament proposal to include
land forces gave in and agreed
to accept the Borah amendment
to the naval appropriation bill.
That Is, all but four gave in.
The only negative votes were
cast by Representatives Moore, Indi-

WONDERS WHAT WE MAY
EXPECT FROM THEM

The "Notatorp in the Carson Ap-
peal gives the following production
figures OF the Con. Virginia mine al
Virginia City for three months in
1875, and -laments that Nevada's
wealth has been taken away with so
little benefit to the State. "Notator''
says:
During the year OF 1875, or the
first quarter of the centennial period,
the Con Virginia mine of Virginia
City produced in gross money S.
262.7S0 and paid the State s227,123,
as bullion tax. A real record from
one mine. 1t is little wonder that the
Palace Hotel, the Nevada Bank build
ing. the old Baldwin, the Reidouts,
the Sharons and a double score of
millionaires enriched the bay city,
while the Mackay and Fair people
laid up a stock of dollars that is
working from New York to Europe
and then around the world. But out
Of 1t all mighty few dollars ever came
back to the land that 1t was dug
from. Clarence Mackay has helped
at the university, and he alone is on
the list. When the tremendous sums
that were taken from the Comstock
are figured up and the slight amount
that yer cames back the wonder is
that the laws on taxation we're 30 gen-
erous. 1t is a safe venture to say
that 1t is the only State in the Union
that made so many millionaires in
proportion to the population, and
they in turn deserted the nest that
reared them. Will the new element
that threatens to make the old lode
yield again be as neglectful?"
