Rough Methods

The Italian Fascist have now taken hand
in reducing the high cost of living, bringing
into their solution of it the militant methods
which characterized the recent election cam
paign.
Their appeals to the storekeepers through
out Italy have not met with flat refusal, for
the storekeepers have advertised reductions
ranging from 10 to 25 per cent. The reduce
lions are especially noticeable in the dry
goods stores The effect has been to fill
these stores with shoppers Shoe stores,
clothing stores, cafes, restaurants, hardware
stores have increased their sales immensely
in consequence.
The vendors of the prime necessaries how
ever, are having their difficulties They ask
the peasants to reduce the prices to them,
but the peasants refuse. AS result, the
peasants have gone on strike and refuse to
bring the produce into the cities and suffer
the reductions imposed by the Fascisti's de-
mands.
A fruit vender was found selling his wares
without any reduction the other day. He was
accosted by several Fascist, who demanded
that the price be reduced. He demonstrated
that he was doing the selling, not they The
remark led to a quarrel. The Fascist club
bed the vender severely. He was taken to a
hospital, where he died shortly after his ar
rival.

Deadly UndertOW

A Mr.. and Mrs. John Donovan, bathing at
Belle Harbor, near New York, found them
selves held prisoners by the undertow a few
days ago. Although they were in water that
reached only to their chests, every time they
lifted foot to step shoreward the undertow
swept the other foot from the bottom and
showed them seward.
Six others, including two life guards, who
responded to their calls for help soon were

PrOfiteer Nailed

A wealthy grocer named Jean Paul Bayeux
has just been sentenced to four months i'm
prlsonment and fine of 10000 francs for
concealment of war profits to the prejudice
ot the revenue authorities, according to the
Post
The case is believed to be typical of very
large number of others in this country
Before the war Bayeux kept little grocer's
shop in a poor quarter of Paris Owing to
the enormous rise in prices and the high rate
OF profits ruling in his trade during the war
he was able before the armistice was declared
to open four large shops in various parts of
the city. He also amassed sufficient money
to purchase two houses in Paris and two viii
las at Paris PLACE, and became the possessor
OF 100000 francs in bonds. Inquiries by the
revenue authorities showed that he had con-
cealed from them over 70 per cent of his
profits.

Belmont, Mass, August 18th. Jim

defeated one up today in their first SO

Dublin, Aug. 18th. The leaders of
the Sim Fein today were centering their
attention on London, awaiting the ex-
pected statement on the Irish negotia.
tions by Mr.. Lloyd George in the House
of Commons and the Governments reply
in the House of Lords to the recent inter
pellations by the Marquis of Salisbury
for an official statement on the subject.
Meanwhile the rank and file of the mem
bers Of the Dali Eireann were engaged
in committee work in consideration of
Irish internal affairs. The fact that the
Dali Eireann put off discussion of the reply
to the British Premier's peace offer until
Monday is indicated to be due to the
expectation that Mr.. Lloyd George
WOu{u say something IN an
swer to Mr.. De Valera's speech of
Wednesday or possibly to the anticipa.
ton that some move would be made to
induce Ulster to join the forces with the
South.
London, Aug. 10Th. The Government.
declared Mr.. Lloyd George today, in
making its settlement proposals to Ire
land had decided on putting the whole
of its terms into the letter to Mr.. De
Valera without keeping anything back
and the sequel had proved, he said, that
it was right in adopting that course. He
had heard no suggestions from any part
of the world. except Ireland, he remark
ed, that the proposal had but gone to the
limit of possible concessions. Il want

to make it clear continued the Premier,
that the Government did not put tortn
hazarding terms, but put forth every
thing they could possibly iconcede to pQr-
chase peace and the good Hili OF the irish
people. in Ireland itself, as far as can
see, the doubt is not so much as to the
terms. but as to whether the Government
really means them. That is a question
of working out the terms Of eIucldatlon
AMI elaboration and not a changing OF
the terms. The Outliae cannot be alter
ed ror the basis changed.
London, Aug. 19th.-An announce
ment in favor of Welsh Home Rule has
been made by Mr.. Lloyd George, says
the Liverpool Post today. The PREMIER
who made the announcement at a dinner
of Welsh Nationalist pledged himself,
according to the newspaper, 10 support a
measure of Welsh devOlutlon II such

Of Parliament. The Home Rule favour

Washington, Aug. 18th. Comment
among Senators today was unfavourabIe
to the proposition Of an alliance between
Great Britain, Japan and the United
States. Senator Borah told a represent
alive, of the Canadian press that it would
be, in his opinion, useless for Mr.. Lloyd
George to come to the Washington con
ference after contemplating such a plan.
Senator Hitchcock said the idea was
hardly consistent with the purpose OF
the League of Nations and he doubted
whether the United States would be in
terested or not,
Dublin, Aug. 10Th. Thus far there
has been no sign of unusual influx Of
black and tans Of soldiers into Dublin
or other parts or the country, but a ru-
mour, which is claimed to have emana-
led from military sources, says there
are 80, 600 troops in England ready to be
transported to Ireland in case the truce
breaks down. In Irish quarters the
view is expressed that even the rumou
of preparation, and it is only such. will
be bound to have a bad effect upon Sim

FORTUNE SEEKERS
ENR0UTE TO OIL
FIELDS OF ALASKA

juneau, Alaska July 13.-First Of
the fortune-seekers to make the round
trip this year to new oil fields at Fort
Norman In the Mackenzie valley Of
northern Canada, were nine men who
passed through Juneau recently en-
route to Edmonton. Alberta. where
they will record their locations on oil
lands.
"I believe the district will be a world
heater" John Mcdonnell one of the
"sourdough" leaders of the party said
zone gusher at Norman produced
l,5O0 barrels a day, according to re
ports which | believe are below the
correct figures"
Every member of the party said the
oil was Of high grade and asserted il
was used in the Fort Norman country
for lighting and heating and even was
used without being changed from its
crude state, in gas engines.
The nine men "mushed" into the oil
fields over 75O.mile trail, part Of
which was snow-covered across the
continental divide from White Horse
Yukon Territory. They made the trib
10 Norman in twenty-one days. which
rs considered very fast time and used
thirtyfive dogs to pull their sleds
Originally most Of the men came
from Vancouver, b. c.. which they left
on March :, Of this year coming
north to Skagway, Alaska, and cross
ing the White Pass trail to White
Horse by railroad. Leaving White
Horse March l3, they took the trail to
Carmacks on the Yukon river. and
then struck out across the mountains
for the big Canadian basin At Fort
Norman they found themselves among
the first stampeders of the year to
get inside"
Hundreds of men from Canada and
the United States are planning To go
to the new fields this year over the
Canadian route through Edmonton,
Fort McMurray and Peace River. Most
of this route is by steamboat down the
Peace and Mackenzie Rivers. Although
fast time can be made in summer over
this interior route the men who pass
ed through here declared the trail
from White Horse was the best winter
way to Norman. There is plenty OF
game along the route for food and
the going is easy, they said.
