R. Cottrell reported fo the triple alliance that the Non-partisan league had voted to unite witlrthe in dependent units that, have indorsed the farmer-labor party. The four bodies, upon completion of their own work, will meet in Joint ex ecutive conference. No report had been received by the - alliance convention from the - Jtailway Men's Welfare league up to the hour of afterntion adjournment. Merger Complication -Foreseen. If the King county branch of the non-partisan league does merge with the other organizations In support of the third party, it will complicaia the situation within its own rani's, be cause the state convention of the non partisan league voted to go ,n:o the republican primaries, xnd th railway man took similar action. Officers cf th triple alliance exp-es3ed them selves as being on'Id'int that the fou.- bodies will fuse 'n this cot nty, and tc that end conf jrenao commit tees have "been appolned to disci ma ways to reach a basis of appor tionment for county, and legislative officers.

'The organization has its hopes centered on 4100,001 as the amount most appropriate fo tne cause. Only cash will be accepted in the campaign fund drive, as pie Is 's of support are elusive and things hard to convert into tokens of wealth.

Utilization ' of Natural Heat, at First Counted Dream, Deyel- ' oped to Considerable Extent. WASHINGTON. July 31. Industrial Italy, forced by the enormous prices for imported coal, is turning1 atten tion toward the utilization of the la tent power of the country's volcanic area, according to ad-rices received by the Italian embassy. The idea of exploiting- the natural heat emitted from the soil in the vol canio 'regions seemed a dream at first, but already it has been developed to considerable importance. Successful experiments have been conducted in the past and today at Larderello in Tuscany a heating plant of 16.000 horse power is operating without in terruption and distributing electric current to Florence, Livorno and Gros seto. Its capacity, it is planned. Will be increased; First experiments with volcanic power were made some years before the war by Prince Ginori-Conti at Larderello, near the salt mines of Vol terra, a region extensively covered with volcanic vents emitting power ful jets of hot steam containing boric salts and various gases used in the extraction of boracic acid. Instead of limiting the use of these steam-jets to extracting the salts con tained in the exhalations of - these natural vapor-vents, the ejection of the steam is stimulated by boring holes. In this way it has been pos sible to obtain jets at a pressure of 30 to 46 pounds per square inch and in some instances as high as 75 pounds a square inch, the tempera ture varying from 150 to 165 degrees centigrade. . In 1905 Prince Glnorl-Contl applied this natural steam to Sj 40-horse power engine, using only a small section of the Nenella fissure, the ejected steam from which has a pressure of 75 pounds per square inch. Seven years later another experiment was suc cessful with a 300-horse power-turbine-alternator, and later the Lar derello heating plant was started with three turbine-alternaters of 3000 kilo watts each, these being- fed by boilers at low pressure heated by the natural steam, superheated to 165 degrees cen tigrade. The natural steam has been used thus far only for beating purposes because it contains substances, among them sulphuric acid, which corrodes metals, particularly iron. MANMX OFF FOR IRELAND (Continued From First Page.) ters as a promoer of strife. As a matter of fact, I am working for peace, peace within the British em pire and without the empire; a peace, however, that I hop will rest not on force, but on justice and on the free will of the people concerned. There ar those who think a hat an arch-1 bishop should not speak as I have I spoken and act as I have acted un less he be a Belgian cardinal. I be lieve Ireland is a nation, as Belgium is a nation, and that Ireland has just the same rights as Belgium to say what form of government she will have. "Further, if Ireland's cause be just and sacred, then, even though I hap pen to be an archbishop. I am cer tainly within my rights in following in my own humble way the glorious example of Belgium's patriots and heroic cardinal. Further, 1 will say that if the Irish people are right in their struggle to be free they have a right to look to me for something more than mere tolerance or barren sympathy; for like them I am Irish, bone of their bone, flesh of their flesh." Tvo Scenes abotv Contrast. As the ship swung out into the Hudson, the archbishop was seen on the after-deck. His serious face, sur mounted by iron gray hair, was con tinually bowed in recognition of the wild chorus of cheers wafted toward the boat. In his left hand he held two roses, the only floral offerings that flung from the dock could reach him. With the other hand he waved a silent blessing. In contrast to this scene was one staged at the opposite pier on the British liner Olympic Tlrere was a different spirit mani fested.1 Instead of the white, yellow and green flag of the Irish republic appeared the flaming colors of Great Britain. The crew, several hundred strong, waved the union jack and, lining the rail, answered with cheers for England every shout raised for Ireland and her "president." The Hudson, separating the factions, alone prevented serious trouble. As it was, it was a day of action, with fights enough for even an Irish county fair. British Premier Mocked. Hours before the ship sailed men. women and children carrying Ameri can and Irish flags and signs mock ing Premier Lloyd George, assembled. The prelate was forced virtually to fight his way through the throng to get to the gangway. Then trouble began. An English man standing on the upper deck hurled a taunt at the archbishop. In a second husky longshoremen climbed up the ship like flies and pummeled the passenger. Only detectives with revolvers pressed into the ribs of the huskies brought rescue to the strand ed Britisher. This was the most spectaular of the brawls. Every insult to the Irish republic was met with a punch, and there was many a sore head. Ordinarily only those who have passes from the American customs authorities are permitted within the fenced inclosure around the gang way on sailing days. Today, however, the friends of Archbishop Mannix defied regula tions. They' rushed from their feet the regular guards and- before police reserves could arrive they were all but on the ship. - Prompt prepara tions to lift the gangways only pre vented demonstrators from geu.ng aboard. HEW LAW TO BE ENFORCED .MOTOR VEHICLE OPERATORS TO ANSWER XR VIOLATIONS. Secretary of State Sends Xeilcr lo Peace Officers in All Paris or State. , i SALEM, Or., July 31. (Special.)
