ocal GRAIN QUOTATIONS WAGNER'S GRAIN LETTER CHICAGO, Aug. 5. The market early today showed resistance to labor tronble and the high cost warning. There were hiats of large oats export sales but no details. Foreign exchange around the low point. The market awaits the new Barne's Thurslay meeting and some people think $1.75 wheat will be favored and any such price does not look bullish on December corn but or course cheap wheat is as yet a surmise. Corn crop looks 80 to 82. Forecast is for showers except in Kansas. CHICAGO GRAIN RANGE Furnished by E. W. WAGNER & CO., 212 .Union National Bank Building. Phone 1720. CHICAGO, August 5.

It's Time to Plant "Chinese Cabbage"
F. W. Wesler, Garden Supervisor. Now, and for the next ten days. Is the time to plant Chinese cabbage. This vegetable long has been known to gardeners and cultivated to some extent in private gardens, but only recently has been raised for the market in tliis part of the country, where it is also known as celery cabbage. It must have cool weather for, its development, otherwise it Is likely to run to see, and started now should be ready for use lu October. The heads are long and upstanding, about five inches in diameter and ten or twelve tall in case of Pe-Tsai, the variety most commonly grown. The cabbage may be served raw as salad with any of the ordinary dressings, cr cooked like the other varieties of cabbage. Rows should be eighteen inches to two feet apart and the plants a foot apart in the row. Drop half a dozen seeds in each place and cover with three-quarters or an inch of earth. When the plants are well started be sure to thin to one to the foot, otherwise the development of the heads is likely to be stunted. If the seed is fresh and the ground is kept moist during the period of germination, the plants will appear in four or five days. Water when needed and keep the ground cultivated. Sometimes the aphis is troublesome and it is necessary to use nicotine sulphate in the early stages of growth, but by the time the heads are forming it is not likely that there will be further difficulty. 30,000 ROMANIANS ENTER BUDAPEST (By Associated Press) BUDAPEST. Aug. 5. Thirty thousand Rumanian troops including infantry, cavalry and artillery, entered the city today with a blare of trumpets. The Rumanian forces, led by General Marghaseu, passed through Andrassy and other streets. BERLIN, Aug. 4. Troops of the Szegedin government of Hungary, have advanced to within twenty-five miles of Budepesf and expect to reach that city tomorrow and Jugo-Slav forces are also advancing upon Budepest, according to a Vienna dispatch received here. It is stated that the Rumanians have captured many communist leaders at the Hnugarian capital. The Rumanian official statement which declares that the people of Budapest greeted Rumanian forces with enthusiasm, failed to agreewith spceials to Berlin newspaers which said that the approach of the Rumanians causer terror in the city. The National Zeitung quotes the Hungar ian legal at Vienna to the effect that the Rumanians are plundering Buda pest suburbs where they are quarter ed. Joseph Haubrich, Hungarian minister of war is reported to have notified the Rumanian commander that he cannot guarantee the maintenance of order in the city of vandalism by the Rumanian soldiers continues. ANTI-TRUST LAW VIOLATION TO PROSECUTION BASIS Evidence of an agreement, which would tend to control or to increase in the price of foodstuffs, would point to a violation of the Indiana anti-trust law, and would be subject to a grand jury investigation, according to Judge Bond, of Wayne circuit court. If there is any evidence of such an agreement in Richmond, or Wayne county, the judge announced that he would call a special session a the grand jury, and would do all in his power to bring violators of the law into court to face prosecution. "In my opinion, it is not necessary to form any written agreement in order to violate the law, but any agreement, whereby prices are 'fixed,' or foodstuffs are hoarded in order to raise the price, through a combination is a direct violation of the law,' Judge Bond said Tuesday. Although the judge said that he would order an investigation of conditions in Wayne county if evidence of law violation was shown, he declared himself of the opinion that the matter was too large to handle by separate communities. "This proposition is entirely too large to be solved by individual communities, and I believe that he federal government should step in and find out just what is wrong," the judge said. "However, if it is found that Richmond dealers in foodstuffs either the grocers, or commission merchants, are in a combination to set prices, I will call the grand jury into special session, and order a rigid investigation of conditions. There is no doubt In my mind that prices in Richmond are too high, but whether this Is due to local conditions, or conditions beyond the control of the court here, remains to be seen." Woman's Democratic Head To Be Announced Allen Announcement of the women's chairman of the Wayne county Democratic Central committee will be made in the near future, according to Joshua Allen, chairman of the central committee. Several names, including Mrs. Benjamin Rush, of Richmond, are being considered for the position, according to Allen. Although no orders have been received from the state committee relative to the appointment of a woman's chairman, Allen said Tuesday that he was ready to make the appointment as boon as orders were received. When Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Leggett, of Palmyra, Kansas, celebrated their fifty-fifth wedding anniversary recently, all their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren were present. In the family there has never been a death in all the fifty-five years. From 1914 to 1918 Great Britain lost in the war 3,049,991 officers and men.
FOUR GENERATIONS OF ONLY SONS, IN FOUR WARS OF U. S,
To the family of Paul A. Beckett, a local attorney, belongs the distinction of having a representative in the last four wars of the United States, although Beckett himself and each of the others were only sons. Private Luke Beckett, great-grandfather of the Richmond man, was a soldier in the United States army during the Civil war, and was killed la Sherman's march to the sea. James Beckett is buried in the National cemetery at Beauford, S. C. Captain Charles A. Beckett was a chaplain of the Fourth Illinois National guard,, and was commissioned a cap-' tain four days after the close of the Spanish-American war. Charles Beckett was a son of James Beckett. Paul Beckett, the last of the line, was an ensign in the United States navy during the recent war with German, and was in service for sixteen months. Paul Beckett has photographs of three of the four generations, taken in the uniform worn by the men. but has been unable to find a photograph of Luke Beckett, the first of the line. 200 CHAUTAUQUA TENTS RESERVED; RULES TIGHTENED Over two hundred Chautauqua tent reservations have been made at the down town Chautauqua headquaters including those of several organizations whihe will have open tents. The Omricon Pi Sigma fraternity has rented a lot near the south gate, while the Wayne County Teachers' association tent will be east of the big tent facing auditorium square. St. Paul's Lutheran church will have a tent east of the auditorium tent and the W. C. T. U. tent will be on Forest avenue as usual. The Chenoweth Auto Agency is planning a rest and first aid just south of Chau tauqua headquarters in the tenting space occupied by the Rotary club last year. Amie Tschaen, the Chautauqua manager is finding great interest in the surrounding communities. Lighting wires have been put in and are already for connection to the tent lights. The permanent drinking fountains will be playing soon. New seats for. the big tent have been ordered and every effort is being made to increase the capacity of the tent to provide for the vastly larger crowds which are predicted. Strict regulations of light and noise between 11 p. m. and 6 a. m. are to be carried out, and no unchaperoned parties, even for one night are to be tolerated by the board of directors. If any party disobeys this ruling once, the members will be requested to vacate. More organized policing of the Chautauqua grounds is to be arranged. A day policeman of the city force, and another officer from the city force for night duty will serve with one or two assistant marshalls. In this way it is hoped to keep conditions good.

WRONG DONE (Continued from Page One) lustration of the fact that Japan intends to cling to Shantung and that her protestations of good faith are not to be believed. Why was 60 monstrous a wrong thus recognized? Simply because It had to be done to save the league. Forced Wilson tc Agree. "President Wilson wanted the league. It was the sole object of his going to France, and for it he was and is willing to make great sacrifices of either foreign rights or American independence. Japan, seeing his attitude, took advantage of him and forced him to indorse this wrong to China by the threat, that, if it were not done she would withdraw from the conference and would decline to ratify the league. And he yielded and is now endeavoring to have our nation ratify this treaty and condone this wrong. Japan forced him into that concession. That country sold her signature for the liberties of 36,000,000 of human beings, and Wilson, Lloyd George and Clemenceau approved the bargain and ratified the sale. "The most remarkable, the most indefensible feature of this entire transaction is that, as a result of a war said to have been waged to make the world safe for democracy, we enforce the spoliation of the only republic in the orient, we ratify the previous robbery of a friendly people by the nation we went to war to overthrow for such acts, and we turn the result of the larceny over to the most autocratic government that now exists on earth, the counterpart of Germany In the east.

ference and sanctioned this oriental crime every one of them- bad a treaty with China to protect the territorial Integrity of her empire. Treaty Fraud on China. "I believe that the secret treaty
made by Japan with the allies in 1917 should be countenanced by them or by us at ths time, because it rests on wrong and is established on fraud. It was a fraud on China, because by the terms of that understanding Japan got China, Into the war. And this secret treaty was as well a fraud on our government. When by the Lanslng-Isb.il agreement in 1917 the United States recognized that 'Japan has special interests in China,' neither President Wilson nor Secretary Lansing knew that Japan had secret treaties with the allies by the terms of which 6he was to hold Shantung after the war. "The people of China believed in the United States. We have been her one great and only friend. The president willingly throws aside the work of Burlingame, casts the efforts of consents to the robbing of China by Hay upon the scrap heap, and not only Japan, but seeks to force us to fight to sustain the robbery and protect the robbers. It can not be denied that if the people of Shantung revolt against the galling yoke of Japan, and if China shall rise to defend her own people, then by the provisions of Article X we shall be compelled to send American soldiers to subdue China. "We send missionaries to China to teach the principles of the Christian religion. And we do right. But it ill becomes us to sanction an arrangement that will fasten upon them the rule of a nation that is opposed to Christianity, that has systematically persecuted Christian missionaries. "I do not believe that the treaty should be ratified unless and until Japan either withdraws from China or states in unequivocal terms that 6he will withdraw, or. better still, fixes a definite date of withdrawal; for I believe this to be a monstrous a proposition as has ever been proposed to civilization."
