The Farmer and Richmond Richmond and that part of It which Ilea outside the city limits have been on the moat Intimate and friendly terms for years. There need to be a feeling that Richmond took no interest In her neighbors the cHisens or the whole community that Richmond represents but that passed clear out of existence a number of years ago. Just now the Palladium wants to call attention to and to kill a misunderstanding which has no foundation, but which is a real fact because of a misunderstanding. ' - That is the misunderstanding about the vehicle tax and the farmer. The Palladium knows the circumstances which led to the vehicle tax and knows positively that thla was not aimed at the fanner. The Palladium knows that statement ol Mr. H. M. Gardner, the city attorney published elsewhere in ttis paper is to be depended upon. The Palladium. knows that if the city council had Intended to work a hardship on the farmers of this community that It would not have had the backing of the men of this town. i Furthermore the misunderstanding is a misunderstanding. We have been at considerable tains and expense down here in Richmond trying to show the farmers of this locality that all of ns here aro Interested in their progress and prosperity. We know that the welfare of the farmer Is the basis of all material prosperity.' The first corn school in this part of the country was financed by the people of Richmond, and the one which Is held in Richmond next February will have the backing of the entire town. Why? Because Richmond as a town is Interested in the development and prosperity of the community. 1 All this Fall Festival business simply means that Richmond wants the men and women and children of the surrounding country as her guests. We all want you to come here and we all want to know you. This paper has constantly worked for a clear understanding of the attitude of the people of Richmond toward each other those who live inside and outside the city limits. So we ask you, is It likely that (counting up the tangible cost and trouble that this town has gone to in simply showing ita friendliness) it would deliberately start out to make enemies among ita best friends? This, the town of Richmond, bad no intention of doing, and that Is what Richmond never did do. Now, that we have cleared up the misunderstanding about this vehicle ' tax, we want to call attention to the distinction that the co-operation of city and towns people has caused throughout the. state. All over the state men are curious to know about the Fall .Festival as a successful attempt to substitute something really worth while for the old county fair. ' It Is becauee right here among us we have all worked together, city men and farmers for a common object and mutual gain that this community is forging ahead. V Next February the same forces in Richmond, which are behind the Fall Festival will be found boosting and doing all in their power to help along the Purdue Short Course with the same feeling of enthusiastic work for the whole community which marks the Fall Festival. It's not likely that Richmond the town has trle,d to hurt its friends is it? And furthermore, it's a fact that the vehicle tax has been misconstrued. It's a favor that the town of Richmond is asking when it asks every man who has ever been to a Richmond Fall Festival to spread the real truth about the vehicle tax as set forth by the city attorney of Richmond, and to get the truth before the friends of this town. There has never been a time when there was so much real profit for all of us In working together and none of us can afford to have a misunderstanding about this thing.

Items Gathered In From Far and Near Gereign Interest in Our Politics. Washington Star: Senator Burton, who has just returned, observed while abroad that the English newspapers are giving more than the usual space to American politics. Other. Americans of note have made the same report. Only a few years ago American travelers complained that their country and its affairs seem to possess no interest for English journalists. The most important American events received but scant cable attention. America was over the sea and far away. English and continental topics had the right of way, and blocked the way. When a citizen left these shores he temporarily severed his connection with opportunities to follow liome developments, and had to appoint a time upon his return for "reading up." Now, many accounts agree, it is all very different. Nor is this true only of England. French and German newspapers have been increasing their space allowance to American topics until in both France and Germany it is now possible for American sojourners to keep fairly in touch through the local press with the more important features of the situation at home. The Fisheries Decision. From the New York Tribune. The tribunal at The Hague has given its verdict in the north Atlantic fisheries dispute with gratifying promptness, a circumstance which reflects credit not only upon the tribunal itself, but also upon the counsel on both sides for the convincing clarity of their presentations and arguments in the case. As for the general character of the verdict, it was in a sense forecast by one of the American counsel, Senator Root, who got here from The Hague by steamer only a day before the cabled announcement of the result, when he said that "such decisions are always compromises." We are glad to believe, however, that this one is a compromise in only the highest and best meaning of the term. It is a compromise in s,o far as that some of the points involved are decided In favor of one and some in favor of the other party, but we do not suppose that on any of them the tribunal pronounced a verdict other than in strict accord with legal and equitable conviction. Would Concentrate Charities. From the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. Mrs. Rheta Childe Dorr writing in one of the magazines of the fighting chance of the city child, thinks that the foes of the child, poverty, disease and premature death, should be fought by an organized army rather than the amateur skirmishers that give their time to it. A lot of money is spent by each of the societies working against the evils and much by the individual, but she thinks much more could be accomplished by the united efforts of all. In this way there comes about the woman who receives three turkeys in one day at Christmas and a free dinner besides, . while many are without a bit to eat. The Treublo With the Court. From the Louisville Courier-Journal. The trouble with the abominable United States Supreme Court is that it haB not always followed "my policies." A Surprising Statement.

Raising of Maine May Cause Great Yellow Fever Epidemic
BY SIDNEY ESPEY Washington. Sept. 10. Will the raising the United States battleship Maine, now buried In twenty-seven feet of slime and filth that has been pouriag Into the harbor of Havana for centuries cause an epidemic of yellow fever in Havana and spread to the southern gulf cities? This question war department officials refuse to discuss at length, preferring to make this a minor consideration to the all important one of raising the Maine to determine whether or not the was with Spain was justified. Since the city of Havana assumed the proportions of a city centuries ago. its sewage has emptied into the harbor. As there is practically no tide, the slime and filth settle to the bottom of the bay. Until American occupation ot the island Cuba was annually visited with the deadly scourge of yellow fever and rigorous quarantine was observed by all cities of the United States against the "Queen of the Antilles." Particularly was this true of the southern gulf cities where trading with the island was heavy. Notwithstanding this, yellow fever was brought into the United States and epidemics of the disease were prevalent through the southern states. Following the American occupation sanitary conditions on the island were much improved, although by no means made perfect. Havana harbor is still the reservoir for the disposition of the city's sewage. When the Maine was blown up, twelve years ago, by what is now thought to have been a Spanish tor pedo or mine, the wreck began, to slowly disappear In the mud of Havana harbor until one mast and some twisted steel junk are the only visible signs that an American battleship and its crew have paid the price of war. Since that time American citizens have been calling for the raising of the Maine and recovering1 the bodies of the brave crew who have been so ignominlously neglected by the government, and through tardy legislation by congress appropriations have at last been made which will make this undertaking a reality. To do this two plans which strike officials as practical have been submitted. One calls for the building of a cofferdam around the vessel and the other for , constructing two wharves, one on either side of the battleship and raising it by means of cables. In either case, however, it will be necessary to dig through the mud and filth which now cover the wreck. In the former case, should that plan be more acceptable, more than 2,500,000 cubic feet of offensive mud and slime will have to be pumped from the bottom of the harbor. What amount of disease may spread over the city of Havana or even cities of the United States, as a result, no one connected with the army will say. In the latter plan hundreds of United States sailors or sol diers are to be used, and while the bed of the harbor will not be nearly as much disturbed, the men who will be called upon to worg there, run the chances of imminent death from exposure to the disease breeding mud. Colonel L. A. Le Garde and Major M. W. Ireland of the surgeon general's staff, now on duty at the war depart ment, express themselves as unfamil iar with the conditions obtaining in the harbor of Havana. From a medical standpoint, however, regarding the sanitation of the island during the period of raising the vessel both are of the opinion that some disease may be spread to the city of Havana if tonh of sea mud are exposed to the winds. They do not regard it as improbable that germs of "yellow jack" could be transported to the United States. Just what steps the war department will take in guarding the health of tho citizens of Havana as well as of the United States is not now known, as the problem lias not been seriously considered. The matter, however, it is said, will be taken into considera 3 on The
tion with other things by the commission appointed by General William H. Bixby, of the engineer corps.
Although the song "Has Anybody Here Seen Kelley?" is an old one First Assistant Secretary of State Huntington Wilson was asked the other day Has Anyone Here Seen Sebastian Salinas and Modesto Barrios?" the two Nicaraguan "'envoys' who came to the United States to aid MadrU re tain the presidency of that unbapp; country. During their stay in Washington the two Central American diplomats stuffed some gullible newspaper stories ot glorious victories won by the Madris faction. Each day at their hotel, manifold copies telling ot Madriz'a success were handed out to the newspaper men. When the opportunity presented, these two ''diplomats" could be found using the back stairs to call upon Mr, Thomas Dawson's diplomatic officer of the state department where they would try to gain some glimmer of hope for Madrii from this government in the way of official recognition. Their task appeared all but hopeless up to the very last minute, when cable dispatches announced the success of the revolutionists. Since that time, diplomats and others here have been wondering where Salinas and Barrios have gone. From last reports they were on their way to New York. The most pathetic feature ot the situation however, is that of the "counselor" of the Nicaraguan . legation Corey Staddon, a newspaper man, who has been acting as Madriz's law representative here and at the same time praising the Madrii regime by means of the press of this country. Just now he doesn't know where he is at. For months of painstaking work, Mr. Studdon has only received "thank you." He hardly expects to get more, yet he is hoping against hope and trusting to Providence to have the Estrada government overthrown and Madris adherents reinstated. Golf Defined. On the terrace of a country club. overlooking a green dotted with sheep. a group of nongolfers were taking tea. A male nongolfer, who took bis tea through a straw, said thoughtfully: "Golf uigut be defined as billiards gone to grass." "Spleeu u the green.
