China Sees
Poorhouse Just
Around Corner

! Omitted Press Staff Correspondent }
Pre- s)-Just one definite result is
apparent after China's annual poiti-
cal and military orgy.
China is poorer
As thoroughly as gunpowder, politi-
cal intrigue and public wastefuness
can do it, the country has been
driven one step and almost the last
step, toward large foreign loans and
consequent foreign financial super
vision.
Other results, and among them
some good ones, there may be, but
they are not now apparent.
The period of fear preceding the
war, the ten days of actual warfare
and the recovery period took a solid
month out Of China's producing
year. Merchants in that period re-
fused to ship goods for fear trains
would he seized by soldiers Then
the roads were cut Dy armies and
even the cheaper commodities were
not transported locally. Money was
withdrawn from banks and secreted
and stocks of merchandise in the war
area We're hidden. Cutting of tele-
graph lines paraiyzed business
throughout the country Food be-
came expensive.
Government and people suffered
alike for Chinas greatest income for
purposes is from the
railroads and telegraphs.
The country comes out of the So
called war in weakened condition
to take up the task of sef-restora-
ton. For this work there is not u
lollar in the treasury nor is there
likely to be, All the dollars that
will come in for many years are
pledged for debts contracted by
wasteful administrations.

NEW YORK, July 6.-John Nc
Graw probably looks back with regret
on lot of things in his career He
may be sorry for having been the cen
trail figure in numerous discreditina
affairs, but he never will be required
to apologize for the way he has treat
ed his ball players.
McGraw reached the pinnacle of
his success in mercenary day when
managers and club owners were prone
to throw a player into the scrapheap
when he passed his day of usefulness.
Not so McGraw, however At the
cost of thousands of dollars and the
stinGing of the sharp tongue of criti-
cism, McGraw has stuck by ball play
ers who were loyal to him years after
they had passed their prime
Two years ago, McGraw was accus-
ed by New York of hanging the pen
nant hopes of the Giants by playing
Larry DOYLE and Art Fletcher on the
infield. No one knew better than Nc
Graw that both were through but
he would not let them go until he
found good place for them
He found a managerial berth for
Dayle and sent Fletcher to Philadel-
phia to inherit the job of team pilot.
Fletcher never landed the job, because
he was forced to leave the game on
account of private affairs just before
the vacancy occurred.
When McGraw traded George
Burns to the Cincinnati Reds this
year, the fans wanted the Giant house /
to fall on him. Burns was one of
the most popular players that ever
wore New York uniform and they |
resented a trade that would cut
George out of another slice of the
worlds series money
That deal now appears in a differ
ent aspect because it is reliably report
ed that Pat Moran is to be relieved
from the leadership of the Reds and
Burns is to succeed him.

MORE ROBBERY
ATTEMPTS MADE
Windows In Rear Of Two
Stores Opened; Many
Robberies Lately.

Unsuccessful. attempts to burglarize
two store last night Awere reported
this morning by Chief OF Police J.. w.
Lowe. ...,,
At about $50 last night, when
tered the store on North Third street,
they found q rear. window had been
opened. Entrance, however, was not
believed to have been made Il some
articles on the window sill had not
been disturbed, according to an officer
who visited the place.
This morning it was reported that
the Rheinhart Hardware store, also
on North Third street, had been en-
tered, a rear. window having been
forced In. Az effort evidently was
made to enter the main part of the
store by going from the rear room
through the basement, but the base
ment door could not be opened, it
seems. Nothing was stolen.
Work Of Locals.
That these attempted robberies and
the many more or less successful ones
committed recently were the york Of
local youngsters is the belief Of Chief
Lowe.
Last night was the second time
within the last two weeks hat at
tempt has been made to break into
The Outlet store. On the previous oc-
casion the robbers tried also to break
into the Nordlund tailor shop in the
Vermont building.

ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Hector Mckenzie
of Logan township, will attend the

ed by the Armour bureau of the agri-

ton at the Grand Forks fair last July.
This is her first year in club-work.
Three Free Trips.
Three club members from North
Dakota will have trips to the big live

il a possibility that Lloyd Larivee, OF
this county. who holds the state
championship in the Duroc Jersey
phase Of the live stock breeding prof.
ect, may be awarded tho trip offered
by the National Duroc Jersey %associa-
ton. A third offer is from the Wilson

ers Of Chicago, who will finance a
trip for a club-worker who has been
successful in the beef cattle breeding
