mated by the Benton county commits
sioners as the day on which the final
budget for the year 1896 will be drawn
up, and anyone who has any protest
to make of the items included IN the
budget, or any recommendations, Will
be given hearing at that time.
According to Commissioner Frank
Clark. the budget as now drawn up
has cut the expenditures of every de-
partment of the county government 10
as low point as is possible. but there
is still deficit of about $4,000 be-
tween the estimated expenditures and
the expected revenues.
This is due largely, he explains, 20
the fact that during 1886 there are
several extra items to be provided for'
including the elections and the per-
manent registration of voters. Also, IN
order to meet some of the expendl-
lures of this year, it was necessary to
provide emergency funds, which must
| be included in next years budget.
F! Under the 4O-mill levy limit act, the
county is limited to a levy Of 10 mills
two of which are used for school dis
trict funds, leaving levy OF elghl
mills on property with which to meet
county expenses Under the power dis
trict act, the county utility district
is empowered to make levy OF tWt
mills, but as no provision was made
as to where this was to made, Thu
question will also be thrashed out a
the hearing Monday to be held at tn

HEADLINES

THE GRIM SPECTRE of war cast
it's shadow over the world this week as
Italy began campaign of colonial
aggression, thus bringing to an end
the frantic efforts of other major world
powers to avert war in east Africa.
Events moved swiftly this week, fol-
lowing a period in which hope had
risen that Mussolini was staging
bluff and would call off his expressed
intentions of conquering Ethiopia IN
return for economic concessions from
other powers.
Halle Selassie, emperor Of Ethiopia,
earlier in the week had threatened TO
issue a call for general moblllzatloff,
and Mussolini's address was intended
to show that it was Ethiopia that was
the aggressor.
on Wednesday, Mussolini told the
people of Italy that the nation would
bear economic determinations with
discipline adding that "a solemn hour
is about to break in history" At the
same time, his troops were reported
marching into Ethiopia and today, re-
ports reached the outside world OF a
terrific battle at Adowa, in which the
casualty lists on both sides were great
Thursday afternoon, reports stated
that in an effort to make Italy re-
verse it's war-like policy, England and
France had banded together, breaking
off economic and diplomatic relation
ships with Italy.

BASEBALL'S- BIG SHOW, with mil

listening eagerly to the play by play
reports started Wednesdad afternoon
in Detroit.
Despite close contest between Chi
cago and st. Louis for the National
league pennant, which threatened TO
overshadow the World Series, interest
in the big event was as intense as ever,
and with two great teams on the Ola
mond opinion as to the outcome was
sharply divided.
Favored to win the first game, be-
cause of the proves Of the starting
pitcher, Warneke, and because they
were believed to be still "hot" after
their mad pennant race of the past
month, the Chicago Cubs ran true to
form, downing Detroit to We'd
nesday.
It was championship game in every
respect, with both pitchers in great
form, and with other players playing
hrst-class ball. Capitalizing on hit
and an error in the first inning, Chi

the game, they were unable to push a

In the second game of the series, or
Thursday, Detroit took leaf from
Chicago's book, driving in four run!
in the first inning, to give them a leae
which Chicago was unable to over
come. The final score was 8-3 IN favo
of Detroit, Bridges going the route 10
