President Wilson has failed to ac- complish anything in preventing a breach between the brotherhoods and the railways. The railways can easily agree to the president’s demands if congress enacts legislation directing a raise in freight rates—enough of an increase in rates to pay the men the extra wages demanded. As usual, the pub- lic will have to pay. Property taken by Indian agents on the range during the past three months has been sold for more than $2,000. Included in the sale were three automobiles, 20 horses and var- ied assortment of harness, sleds, wag- ons and other conveyances. INFANTILE PARALYSIS. The scourge which has already cost the lives of nearly 2,000 New York children, and partially para- lyzed thousands of others, seems to be under control. Probably the most valuable discovery which has result- ed from it is that the common house fly is the chief carrier of the conta- gion. THE BAUDETTE SALOONS. The Baudette Region takes its readers into its confidence in regard to its attitude in the saloon situation at Baudette. Editor Noonan writes in an editorial that the Region is going to demand of the saloons that they obey the law to the letter. He writes: “During the campaign that has just closed, the Region, through mo- tives that were just as gcod as any of the dry advocates, who were .so fond of abusing us, opposed county option. Should the saloons take the stand that the result of the election is an invitation for them to run con- trary to law, the Region and many citizens will be found on the dry side at the next contest. “The Region is for law enforce- ment, our citizens are for law en- forcement, and the law is going to be enforced.” We congratulate Noonan. you, Brother RUMANIA AT WAR. Rumania’s entrance into the war places a thoroughiy drilled and equipped army of nearly 600,000 men alongside of the allies, accord- ing to Henry Wood, United Press staff correspondent. Of the actual fighting of the mod- ern Rumanian army nothing definite can yet be told as it has never been put to test. Rumania, of all the Balkan states, alone kept out of the struggle. The organization and equipment of the Rumanian army has been praised by many experts. Rumania’s military is obligatory on all able- bodied men between 21 and 46 years of age. This gives the country 50,- 000 new soldiers a year and enables Rumania, out of a population of 7,- 000,000, to muster an army of over half a million. Althougk Rumanian youths liable for military service do not begin duty until they are 21 years of age, as a matter of fact they are at the dis- posal of the minister of war after their 19th year. From the time they are 19 until they are 21, they are obliged to par- ticipate in target and gymnastic drills every Sunday from April 1 to Nov. 30. During the first seven years the men belong to the regular service. They then pass to the reserve when they serve 12 years, finally passing to the militia for the remainder of their term of service until they are 46. The militia is supposed to be available for service only for main- taining the internal order of the country and guarding railways dur- ing the war time. This organization gives Rumania a total of 250,000 first line troops and about 400,000 reserves. The regular standing army consists of 5,000 offi- cials, 1,000 military students, 100,- 000 troops, 25,000 horses, 600 can- non and 200 machine guns. Part of the army has been mobilized for some time near the Bulgarian border. First line troops consist of 40 regi- ments composed of three battalions of four companies. Each regiment has also an extra company at the de- pot, together with one section of two machine guns. There are also 80 battalions of reserves of 12 regiments of gendarnes. The cavalry consists of 10 regiments of red hussars and 10 regiments of black hussars. The cavalry regiments consist of four squadrons for service of 20 regiments of first line troops, each regiment being composed of six batteries of four guns each. There are also 20 regiments of artillery reserves. In addition there is a full organi- zation of engineers and transport trains. Rumania’s chief reason for enter- ing the war is hope of annexing to her present territory the two Austrian provinces of Transylvania and Buka- wina. These are inhabited largely by Russians. While all the other Balkan states are interested in se- curing land in the Balkan peninsula, Rumania’s aspirations lie to the north. Still another factor separates Rumania from the other Balkan states, that of race. A TOURIST CROP. The following is from the Min- neapolis Journal: To the Editor of The Journal: The person who dubbed the Jeffer- son hjghway the ‘““Vacation Route” certainly hit the nail squarely on the head and it is a surprise to us who live on the Iowa side of the Minnesota line, to note the number of autoists headed for some Minnesota lake to spend the vacation. Many of them carry tents and camping out- fits and go prepared to live close to nature. Cars displaying pennants from hundreds of towns and a dozen or more states are now seen on this highway daily. The automobile and a well marked, widely advertised highway are bring- ing to the Minnesota lakes hundreds of families who never would think of getting a whole family ready for a trip by rail. California people know the value of a tourist crop and plan on it the way we in Iowa plan on a corn crop. Minnesota with all her beautiful lakes will soon be like California, figuring on the tourist crop. ‘When J. D. Clarkson, manager of the Jefferson highway made the state- ment that “this highway would be worth more than a trunk line of rail- way to the cities and towns it tra- versed,” many of us smiled, thinking it was his business to boost the road. ‘We have begun to realize that he was right. Not many tourists on trunk lines of railroads buy fruit, cigars, gas, oil and hundreds of other things that auto tourists buy along the line of travel. Not every tourists leaves money in every town he visits or passes through, but tourist travel as a whole leaves a stream of gold along the line of travel. The auto tourists see the better part of our cities and towns. They come in on some residence street, go through the business section, and leave on another residence street. The tourist traveling by rail (if not shut off entirely by strings of freight cars) sees only the poorer parts of the cities and towns. ‘When the southern end of this Jef- ferson highway is completed the southern states will receive a flood of vacation travel in the fall and winter, but now Minnesota is harvest- ing along with its crop of small gram a crop of tourists. —J. M. Slosson. Northwood, Iowa, Aug. 21. APPROPRIATION MADE TO PAY MILLE LACS Washington, Aug. 29.—An appro- priation of $680,460.54 is made in the general deficiency bill reported to the house yesterday to pay the Mille Lacs Indian claim, which has been pending in the courts for about ten years. The court of claims final- ly found that this amount was due the Indians for their lands located around Mille Lacs lake, and taken from them by the Federal govern- ment without their consent. champion of the world, has been in the auto racing game go many years that his name is known wher- ever -auto racing is conducted as an entemmment Steedyand cool when EDDIE HEARNE, former speedway SPORT NEWS BASEBALL TUESDAY National League.

H, i 3 (United Pvrecss Sta%lsgs%ondent) New York, Aug. 30.—With races in the big leagues fast drawing to a close managers are looking toward prospects for next year, with the class of new playing talent picked up in the minors holding an import- ant place. Every year word comes to the east of phenomenal ball players in the minors. Usually these are taken up, and sometimes they make good. More often than not, however, they are sent back. This year, perhaps more than any recent season, there is a dearth of good playing talent in the minors. The big minors, the American as- sociation, the International league and the Pacific Coast league will sup- ply the greatest amount of real ma- terial, as usual. In the lower leagues the percentage of ball players who look promising is remarkably low. In the American association there are a number of ball players who FORMER SPEEDWAY CHAMPION COMING. hard pressed, and able to take advan. tage of every little incident in his fa- vor, he is always a serious contender for money and honors. He is one ot the prominent entries in the auto races at ‘the Minnesota ‘State Fair, Sept. 6 and 9. look like real finds. Among these is pitcher Nick Carter, . purchased from Indianapolis by the Cubs for early delivery. Outfielder Joe Kelly is another In- dianapolis player taken by the Cubs and there is a probability that pitch- er Victor Aldridge of the Indians also will be snapped up. Kansas City has sent Chuck Wort- man to the Cubs. Jimmy Middle- ton former hurler for Louisville, has been sent to the Giants, and infielder Joe Leonard of the Columbus club has reported to Cleveland. Minneapolis and Washington are carrying on their usual interchange, with a trail for Earl Yingling and Mike Menoskey being assured. Mike Regan, star hurler for Kansas City, is certain to make a trip to the majors, and pitcher Pierce of Toledo may get another chance, In the Coast league there is a wealth of good material. Portland offers Wilie and Southworth, out- fielders, Louis Guisto, first baseman, and Allen Sothron, pitcher. Guisto has been sold to Cleveland. Oakland has Martin, a pitcher. San Francis- co expects to dispose of Ping Bodie, outfielder, and Johnny Couch, pitch- er. Salt Lake has first baseman Bunny Brief and pitcher Fittery. Los Angeles offers catcher Bassler, pitcher Horstmann and outfielder Wolter. Vernon has three stars in infielders McGaffigan, Risberg and aBtes. Of the trio McGaffigan is the least likely to go up. IT’S SIX YEARS OLD But Just as Good Today as When First Made. Over six years ago a Turtle River resident testified to complete relief from kidney ills. She now says that there has not been the slightest re- turn of the trouble. Bemidji suffer- ers will take*a deal of comfort in this Turtle River woman’s state- ment. It proves that Doan’s Kidney Pills can be depended upon. Mrs. O. W. Erwin, Turtle River, Minn., says: ‘“Some three years ago my kidneys began to do their work poorly. I was so bad off that I thoughe I would die. My back was very weak and I couldn’t bend over without being in agony. The kidney secretions were scanty and contained sediment. My breath came in gasps and I often felt as though I was smothering. My whole body bloated and I often lay awake half the night, gasping for breath. I was so dis- couraged that I thought death would be a relief. Nothing helped me and my life was one constant round of suf- fering. I finally began using Doan’s Kidney Pills and I am well and happy today. It is Doan’s Kidney Pills that made the cure.” OVER SIX YEARS LATER, Mrs. Erwin said: ‘“The cure Doan’s Kid- ney Pills made has been a permanent one, and I recommend them when- ever I have a favorable opportunity.” 50c, at all dealers.
