The Association of Commerce is

Following are the resolutions;
Whereas, A bond issue Of 10000
00O for building a deep waterway be
tween lOckport and Utica, H., to con
meet the great lakes and the Gulf OF
Mexico, was approved by the voters
in 1908; and
whereas, Work 10 now in progress

but bids for the building of the locks
and dams at the four other impor
tant points have not been advertised
for; and
Whereas, The reductions in wages
and material prices during the past
few months and the present prices
thereof, would indicate that there will
not be any further substantial reduc-
tons in the near future; and
Whereas, There is a widespread
unemployment situation at the pres
Cnt time which would be relieved to
large extent if the work could be
started On the deep waterway at
once; and
Whereas, The completion of the
deep waterway will relieve the pres
cnt difficulties of transportation by
rail from Chicago and the great Mis-
sissippi valley to ocean ports and in

ton Of transportation rates and a
tremendous saving TO all the people

apt to give the opposite impression
TO that which | wished to give in my
talk. You did not misquote me in
saying | believed that religion was
part of the Irish Question, but would
like to explain it further in order to
avoid any wrong impression.
Years ago my father wrote a book
advocating brotherly love as the real
religion and substantiating his point
that a kind act was Of more value to
the soul he wrote the following para
graph:
Suppose the owner of your home
should put you with your family on
the street in storm Two men
come your way; one offers you a
tract of our church as to the plan of
salvation, and offers up a prayer;
the other secures shelter for you and
yours, helps you to find employment
and is kind. Which one Of these two
men has done most for your soul?
Which one would you believe had
best interpreted the story of the
Master?

there was a greater religion in the
giving of material help to ireland

| the same reason, are lacking, to a
certain extent in the greater religion,

any prescribed by sectarian creeds
while those who are not giving be-
cause Of creeds are 10 my mind lack

those who do not give because they

Ireland should not be helped. Such
is the foundation for my belief that

 ment will, therefore probably ask the United States friendly mediation with the various governments chiefly concerned so as to induce them to make up the loss which Swiss hotel
 keepers say they have sustained. But the Swiss government, during the war, asked more than six francs daily per man from the belligerents. the request would have been granted, but now all the countries are in such financial straits that only the friendly intervention of a third party would iaduce them to make such grants. pa r7f na9r"d

 CROPS IN MORELOS

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 19-Men harnessed to blows and engaged in sturdy cultivation of the soil are not an uncommon sight in the state fof Morelos, according to travellers in that region.
 Beasts of burden are scarce i'll that state and the small farmers have met the situation, by taking their places. .1The result 2 is that botntiful 34 crops are being grow n there. Morelos, incidentally, is be- ing matched with interest here inas- much as the governments scheme for apportionment of small tracts of land to laborers and the reversion of large haciendas to their original owner municipalities ~ is being carried out there.
 According to reports the scheme is working out well and single district will produce this year more than s600,000 (pesos) worth of rice. Sugar cultivation has been aband- oned temporarily because of lack of machinery which was dismantled and destroyed during various revo- Iutionary periods and has not been restored.
 It is stated, however, that two large sugar mills are to be erected in the state which will meet all needs when the first crops are har- vested within the next IS months. Morelos is known as one of the richest states in the republic but

 LOST MILLIONS
Swiss fiotelkeepers Ask Re- compense from the AL

BERNIE. Aug. f19.-Six hundred Swiss hotelkeepeps, in whose hotels prisoners of wat were interned dur ing the war, declare they have lost la,0d0000 gold. francs o@ing to tha How price at which the Swiss govern sment obliged them to take the in termed men. The hotelkeepers re ceived six Swiss francs daily per man, which is the same amount as the Swiss government allows for swiss soldiers when quarantined in hotels. The Swiss hotelkeepers de clare that when the prisoners of war were first brought to Switzerland the cost of food and necessaries was not so high as later in the war, and that the cost of interned soldiers keep should have been raised so as to correspond to- the increased cost of living. Altogether, the belligerents paid the Swiss hotelkeepers for their soldiers maintenance during the in ternment period So,750 900 gold francs, but the hotelkeepers' outlay on food, fuel. etc., was 765, 5,000,0 gold francs.
 Six hundred hotelkeepers, there fore, actually received only about 4,500,000, and they assert that it re quired an outlay of 9,500,00O francs to put their hotels in order again after the interned men had left.
 The Swiss government commission, appointed to investigate the matter. confirms the loss of hotelkeepers.
