ROOSEVELT ANGRY AT THE DEMOCRATS Fearing They Would Not Build Up Navy. Gives Statement on Subject. (National News Association) OYSTER BAY, July 26. Taking direct issue with ;, the Democrats who have declared against building up the American Navy, Col. Theodore Roosevelt today declared that to prevent the United States becoming the China of the western hemisphere it would be necessary to carry on the program providing for the construction of bat- - tleships. He declared that this country might as well think of abandoning the Panama Canai as giving up the policy of strengthening the navy. To make his position clear Roosevelt issued the following statement: "The Democrats if they vote down the battleship program, if logical, should vote to abandon the Panama Canal. It Is as understandable a poliicy to abandon the Panama Canal as to abandon building up the fleet and to say that this nation shall simply become the China of the Western hemisphere. I don't believe in that policy, but at least' it is understandable. But the one unpardonable policy is to incur responsibility and then to decline to adopt the necessary means to meet that responsiiblity. It is an outrage from the standpoint of National honor and integrity to go on with the Panama Canal at all unless to both fortify It and keep an adequate navy. "Furthermore any talk as to what we intend to do about the Monroe Doctrine or the Panama Canal or the protection of Hawaii or any other matter is not merely offensive but contemptible, as we abandon building up the navy and show that we really have not the will if .the need should ever come to make our word good by deed."

Right Food Works Wonders It is often the case that people drift into wrong habits of food, although they should know better. When one gets into trouble of this sort it's a fine thing to know how to get out of it. The "food" route" is the common sense way back to health and comfort. ' FOOD 't is made of wheat and barley, so perfectly cooked that it is partially pre-digested . and contains the vital tissue-making elements required for the daily rebuilding ,qf body and brain. 1 A dish of Grape-Nuts and cream for breakfast regularly, helps mightily to put one in mental and physical condition for the day's work. -

Fifteen miners were drowned in No 2 mine of the Superba Coal company at Evans, three miles from here. Grief stricken, helpless and afraid, the widows of these men haunt the entrance of the mine and refuse to be comforted. Although they have been informed that there is no possibility of rescue, that it will be weeks before even the victims of Wednesday's cloud burst can be recovered these women and children, strangers in a strange land, for the most part, maintain their helpless watch, refusing to believe despite their own knowledge. More than thirty children were rendered fatherless by the waters that swept down the mountainside and these children are in dire circumstances. BRITISH LIBERALS ARE NEARLY VOTED DOWN (National News Association) LONDON, July 26. The government narrowly escaped defeat today in the House of Commons on a snap vote. A discussion was up on the chancellor of the exchequer's motion relating to the transaction of public business on Monday. A division which the liberals did not anticipate was demanded and on the count the government won by the narrow margin of three votes. Hindu Cast. The four grades of society among the Hindus are the Brahmans or sacerdotal class, who are said at the moment of creation to have issued from the mouth of Brahma; the Kshatrya or Chuttsee or military class, sprung from the arm of Brahma; the Vaisya or Bals or mercantile class, from the thigh of Brahma, and Sudras or Sooders or servile class, from the foot of Brahma. The business of the Sudras is to serve the three superior classes, more especially the Brahmans. Their condition is never to be improved. They are not to accumulate property and. are unable by auy means to approach the dignity of the higher classes. These divisions are hereditary, impassable and indefeasible. Precedent For "Governess." Albert VII., archduke of Austria, married Isabella Clara Eugenie, infanta of Spain, who brought to him as dowry the sovereignty of the Low Countries, etc. When Philip IV. of Spain ascended the throne in 1021 he took from his aunt the sovereignty of the Low Countries, but left her the title of governess, Her husband died soon after, whereon she took the veil, though still retaining the reins of government. She died at Brussels in 1633, aged sixty-six. Here there is precedent for the use of the word governess when a lady holds the postLondon Notes and Queries. Franklin on Long Graces.

OARROW'S DEFENSE

GIVEN HEAVY BLOW Attorney Davis, Who Helped Darrow, Gives Damaging Evidence. (National News Association) Los Angeles, Cal., July 26. Attorney Davis, associated with Clarence Darrow in the McNamara trial, under cross examination today, in the Darrow bribery case, admitted that at the time Bert Franklin was arrested for Jury-bribing negotiations for ending the trial of the McNamaras had not been completed. The admission was made under the questioning of District Attorney Frederick, who recalled the scene in his own office when the attorneys for the McNamara brothers called on him to confer over a possible compromise that would end the dynamite trial. Davis admitted that the compromise negotiations would have been declared off if the defense had not been assured they could rely upon the recommendation of the district attorney that John J. McNamara would receive a fifteen years sentence and James B. McNamara life imprisonment instead of death. "So you did not know until the Friday morning on which the trial ended but that it might go on?" asked Mr. Fredericks. "Yes, that is a fact," replied Mr. Davis. The defense had contended that it had been arranged to end the trial before the alleged bribery of Juror Lockwood had occurred. Davis admitted that he had called Fredericks on the telephone on Thanksgiving day, the day before the trial came to its abrupt close and suggested a conference. Fredericks, he said, told him it was of no use to come out unless both McNamaras were ready to plead guilty. STEALING A RAILROAD. Not In Financial Way, but by Carrying It Off Bodily. No stranger theft was ever committed than the "lifting" of an entire railroad, twelve and one-half miles in length, which once connected Birr and Portumna. In Ireland. The line had cost $450,000, and for years it did service for the Great Southern and Western Railway company until the year 1876. when the comnanv. which had been runnine it ! at a Iosr, washed its hands of it. The line was derelict. Nobody wanted it. For a few years it stretched its useless length through north Tlpperary. Then its neighbors began to turn covetous eyes on It. Bolts and screws and other portable trifles began to vanish. A few prosecutions were Instituted, bnt the charges were withdrawn. Nobody seemed to care. The thieves, thus encouraged, grew bolder. Farmers brought their carts and horses and loaded tbem with spoils of rails, sleepers, switches and semaphores. One "goodly station vanished, to its last brick and door, in a single night. They were great times for Tlpperary. Boatloads of booty, hundreds of tons of rails, were sent away from Portumna by unlicensed "contractors," and the work of spoliation went on until not as much as a turntable was left. Argonaut.

I HAD SOME "JOY RIDE"

Frame Takes Employer's Delivery Auto. Oscar Frame, aged 35, of 800 South Tenth street, chauffeur employed by the Enterprise Grocery company, is under arrest, being confined at the city jail. It is Baid that he drove from the store in the automobile truck used in delivering groceries Wednesday afternoon, collected about $20 due the grocery company, and drove about the country until Thursday morning about 3 o'clock, when he drove into the Quaker City Garage for repairs. He then took the car out again and with two small boys, Oris Lee and Russel Geyer, each aged about 15, drove to Eaton, O. There a tire blew out and Frame called for help from the Morel-Bricker agency here. The damaged tire was repaired by a car sent out from the garage here, and the damages, about $15, charged to the Enterprise Grocery company. The joyrider returned to the east end garage last evening at 8:30 o'clock and was arrested by Officer Remmert. During the Journey, Frame, it is said, gave the boys with him liquors, which he had previously stored in the machine. Frame has a wife and large family.

Presents Figures

In its effort to convince the city officials that the city should partlctpate in the gross earnings of a water works company, and that a clause pertaining to this matter should be incorporated in the contract to be let within the near future, the public service committee of the Commercial club has compiled figures, based on the Maury report, which will be discussed at the next meeting of the board of works, to discuss the water works question. The appended data, will be presented to the board: In 1904 the earnings of the company were, total receipts, $413,706.61; total expenses, including interest on bonds. $212,232.09, making a net gain of $201,379.08. This makes an average per year of $33,370.08. This distributed on the capital of $375,000 is 8.9 per cent. In 1909 the gross receipts were $77,963.15; operating expenses, $26.100.96; gain, $51,852.19. The operating expenses were 33 V4 per cent of the gross receipts. The total gain for the six years 1904-09 was 66 per cent. The report further 6howg that gross earnings increased from 1904 to 1909 to $15,041.98, or 24 per cent. Operating expenses increased $5,292.97, or 25 per cent, and net gain increased for this period of six years to $12,142.91, or 42 per cent. Another important item of the report shows the increased earnings bas3d on the gross receipts, from 1904 to 1909. Gross earnings increased $15,041.98, or 24 per cent; operating expenses increased $5,292.79, or 8 per cent; net gain increased $12,142.91, or 19 M per cent. If the city had been participating in the gross earnings of the company by receiving 25 per cent of all above the amount of $60,000, beginning June 30, 1904, to June 30, 1905, the gross receipts were $64,489.62; excess $4,489.62; city's share $1,123.41. 1906 gross earnings, $65,257.04; city's share, $1,314.26. 1907 gross earnings, $73,045.95; city's share, $3,261.48. 1908 gross earnings, $70,029.68; city's share, $2,507.42. 1909 gross earnings, $77,963.15; city's share, $4,490.76. The net gain to the company would be $36,501.60, or 9 2-3 per cent on the capital stock of $375,000. The report concludes as follows: "Should a public service commission be created It would then adjust the rates at such times as it found it was proper so that there would not Grocery Phone 2148 Peaches.

be much of any increase to divide with the city. "We would suggest that the city participate In the gross earnings of the company by receiving 25 per cent of all gross earnings above $90, 000. per annum." The report takes the gross earnings for 1913 as $90,000. and by estimating the gain in the past, the committee reports that the total gain In 192i would place the gross receipts at $117. 000. The company's share would be $110,000. while the city would get $6,750. The total for the nine years from 1913 to 1922 makes a total of $1,035,000 for the gross receipts; company's share $1,001,250, while the city's share would be $33,750, according to the report.
