throughout the country are compell-

reputation in their communities now

mall order house can do this since
there is “a new one born every min-

THU ART OK SPELL-BINDING
Chauncery M Depew was one ot
the greatest men in the United Stat-
es until he attained his ambition anu
became a United States Senator But
peopel got onto Cbauncey and they
found him out as an orator and a
good fellow but shy on industry and
other qualities essential to first-class
“senatorshlps” Chauncey became
so discouraged that he even neglect-
the spell-blndlng acts In which he
was a past master Forgiving and
forgetting all the omissions of this
chipper old man of elghty-two who
retains his gifts of spell-blndlng it
Is interesting to know that the form-
er Senator says that "every man in
the United States wants To be a pub-
lic speaker” and he adds that they
can be if they will apply themselves
to the task He discourages mere
“gift of gab” and declares that “no
( man should presume to address hi
fellow citizens on any subject unless

Since Mr Bryan laid aside Ills title'
of "Mr Secretary" and resumed his
old role of the speaking “Colouel”
Mr Clark has agreed with the Ad-
ministration in a most enthusiastic
manner It looks' aa though there
would be an alliance for mutual de-j
fense based upon “national prepar-'
edness" with Messrs Wilson and
Clark building fortifications In the
year 1916 Colonel Brian evident-!
ly thinks in a manner entirely out of
harmony with the Administration
while Champ Clark who has put In
less time at the White House than
any other Democratic leader doubt-
less holds to his old views that If he
is nominated and that if they can-
not yin no one olse would want the

SEIZURE OF HOCKING
MAY BRING PROTEST
WASHINGTON Nov 2 — Seizure
of the American steamship Hocking
by a British cruiser off the Atlantic
coast has brought to issue a question
on which the position of the ’United

far apart that some officials here be-
lieve arbitration ultimately will nec-
essarily be resorted to for settlement
Secretary Lansing cabled Ambas-
sador Page at London today to se-
cure from the British government a
statement of facts connected with
the seizure of the Hocking and the
reasons therefor When this Infor-
mation ia forthcoming the state de-
partment will probably protest im-

There is no movement before Con-

small communities of the country
than the efforts being made by man-
ufacturers of well known articles of
merchandise that the public calls for
by name to secure the passage of a
bill that will enable them to fix reg-
ular re-sale prices and thereby pre-
vent price-cutting by large city retail
