Washington. Aug. 28.â€"Industria] peace in the United States depends on the results the Government can show in the next 90 days in its cam- paign to reduce the cost of living. That time limit was tacitly set to- day by the Executive Council of the railroad shop crafts in suggesting :to union locals thfimghnut the country that President Wilson’s compromise offer in response to their demand for higher wages would be accepted, pending the outcome of the effort to restore a normal price level. If the cost of living does not come down, the 500,000 members of the shop crafts would reserve the right to strike for more money, and with them probably would be associated the he- mainder of 2,500,000 railroad employ- es, all of whom have been considering the same problem. The letter of the Executive Coun- cil served to compose somewhat the uneasiness felt in official circles over the immediate labor-situation and to focus attention on the legal measures being directed by Attorney-General Palmer and his assistant, Judge Ames, to take the inflation out of prices by punishing boarders and profiteers. PRESENTED A BIBLE TO THE PRINCE OF WALES The presentation was very fittingly made at the Exhibition grounds, where for many years the society has had a booth for the disposing- of Bibles to visitors at the Erhibition. Upon his recent visit to Toronto his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales graciously accepted the gift of a Bible from the Upper Canada Bible Society. visitors at the Ermbltion. The Bible was presented by Dr. N. W. Hoyles, K.C., LL.D., president of the society, in a few well chosen re- marks. New Yonk, Aug. 28.-â€"Mayor Hylan received a telegram from the Prince of Wales to-day accepting the Mayoxfs invitation, sent by airplane mail, to visit New York and accept the free- dom of the city. The Prince said he expected to come to the United States in November. ~ TO GIVE TO PRINCE FREEDOM OF NEW YORK WHlCH ROAD? Which road? This is the question every country community is facing to-day. In OUR community there are only two kinds of people, And they travel on just TWO roads. There are the “HOME TOWN patriots“ and the “Out-of-Town patrons." There is the “Trade at Home” road and the “mail order“ road. Which class are YOU in? What road are YOU taking? It should be EASY to decide. Every time we fail to patronize HOME IN- TERESTS we are boosting an outsider. Every time we take the mail order route we are boycotting our home town Which ROAD? The only answer for US is the ROAD TO THE RIGHT. / Hail to our bright young Chieftain, JoyOUS envoy from the Motherland.

The Westminster Gazette says:â€" “No one ever doubted that the Prince would receive such a welcome; his position, his personality and the part he played in the struggle wherein the Canadians bore so great a share were sufficient to assure that. But the people of the Dominion are sur- passing all expectations by the hearti- ness of their welcome and by the keen pleasure they are obviously taking in the Prince’s Visit. In the midst of all these manifestations of public in- terest and of his own popularity, the Prince is bearing; himself well,adis- playing that quiet courtesy and mod- esty which have already endeared him the people 1: home MEWS 3%}- Strong \Unionist Premier of South Africa Victim of Influenza. Aug. 28.â€"â€"General Louis Botha, Pre- mier and Minister of Agriculture of the Union of South“ Afriea, died sud- denly early this morning, following denly early this morning, following an antack of influenza. Right Honorable. Louis- Botha was born in Greytown, Natal, in 1853. His family was of mingled Dutch and French blood, descended from some of those Hug'enots who Went to South Africa after the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes. _v In 1907 Botha became Premier of the Transvaal, and \three years later he became Premier of the South Af- rican Uniqn. From the beginning he was a warm advocate of the union. He attended the Imperial Conference in London in 1907, and was a member of the South African National Con: vention, afterwards visiting England with the other delegates in order to assist the Secretary of State in the passage of the South Africa Act through the Imperial Parliament. When the great war broke out .Children werc la open Bibles and Meanwhile the fug When the great war broke out Botha elected for the Empire. By diplomatic means he sought to hold the irreconcilea‘bles ’in check, and when rebellion came he crushed it quickly. Then came his campaign against the Germans in Southwest Africa. The campaign was a master- piece of rapidity and efficiency. He took a force of from 40,000 to 50,000 men over sandy wastes of waterless country at a speed that seemed al- most incredible. He won the cam- paign, and destroyed another German dream SLAEIQE’EHR $3: 30,000 Martyrs in North-West Persiaâ€"Children Hacked to Pieces. A despateh from London says:â€"â€"A terrible story of the martyrdom of the Christians of Northwest Persia is told in the Daily News.' It .is nar: rated by one of their number, Dr. Yonan. Soon after the war began, Dr. Yonan says, the Russians came to Urumyah, in the province of Azar- baijer, and induced the Christians from Assyrian battalions to fight against the Turks. There was a bat- tle in Urumiyah in February, 1918, in which the Christians were victoril ous. After this the heroic, but small, Christian force fought fourteen bat- tles with the Turks and Persians and routed their enemies. But no help came from the allies and the defeat of the Armenians cut off the Chris: tians from the Syrians. By the end of July, 1918, their ammunition was exhausted, and the Turks were at the gates of Urumiyah. The Christians who dwelt at Salmas, a fertile plain on the north side of Lake Urumiya‘h, had been massacred and flight was the only course left to those of Ur- umiyah. The doctor who discovered the na- ture and the cause of the new pain is a deductive man with Sherlock Holmes in his method of diagnosis, who practices in London. He noted that almost all his shoulder-pain patients dwell at some distance, with an uphill climb from the shops.
