Dec. 28. Powerful forces, both sinister and benign, are lined up here today for the case of Billy Sunday versus Broadway, Wall Street, Bohemia, et al, which goes to trial April 1. What sort of reception Sunday and his old time shouting Methodist camp meeting style will get in the world's gayest, richest, wickedest, most ma terial city, is the subject of much speculation among the residents. He will be the biggest attraction the old town has seen for many years; and It is predicted that great mobs will literally fight to get near his giant tabernacle. . ... ' It will be a battle royal; and prepa rations are being made accordingly. Billy and Broadway have been sparr ing for position for several years.; and now at. last the evangelist is coming to fight the devil in his own home town. ... , . . Broadway, S3 Broadway, seems to have paid little heed to Sunday's plans. But scratch the surface and yon find that what Cyclone Davis calls the Boys of Booze and Boodle are not asleep. The belligerent Billy, though busy with Boston is watching carefully every move In his preliminary cam paign here." "Already a small army of Sundayites are organizing the big town. On January 14 a brigade of the evangelist's most remarkable trail hitters from every city he has invaded will march on the metropo lis and take it by storm. . This is one of the many preliminaries calculated to create atmosphere for Billy's com ing. .... y Unquestionably, Sunday faces the chance of a lifetime in New York. Here will be Broadway, Citadel of Champagne and home of The Sinful Supper; . Wall Street, whose hall mark is Midas shearing a lamb. Bohemia, with its loose-leaf led ger weddings. Its lavender souls and sun god cults; The slums, steeped in squalor and degradation from which uptown re spectability distills pure gold; The home of the gunman with his regular scale of murder prices and of the painted lady who drives her limousine and reckons her income in six figures. All there, and more, are here for Sunday to deal with. FULL LINE -of- Hardware Implements Hunters' Supplies Bend Hardware Co. SATISFIED PEOPLE Are sending their frienda to ns every day.

They wero better fed, bettor cloth ed, put In on an average double the number of working hours a duy, and sickness wus reduced to an lucreil iblo degree One hospital tho cor respondent knows of had 1,500 beds. Prior to 1915 it was overflowing all the time, having some 2.000 pa tients to care for as best it could. Now 1,000 beds have beon sent to a military hospital because there are never wore than 400 patients to care for. This year saw the formation of a central committee to co-ordinate the work of the All-Russinn Zomstvo union and the All-Russian Munic ipality union, two organizations composed of Russian plain people banded together to help the empire run the war. Through this committee ovory man, woman and child was brought more or less directly into touch with the war and perhaps It has done more to make the war a "popular" war than any other movement. The Zemstvo union, above all, Is a peo ple's concern and the Zemstvos have instructed the peasants and common nrople generally throughout Russia as to what the war means to them and the importance of carrying it on to a successful finish. Russia's output of munitions more than quadrupled during 1916. The little concerns could not make great siege guns, of course, but they could and do make trench mortars. hand grenades, caissons, cannon wheels, hatchets, spades, the small er shells and what not. Furthermore they have built tan neries for taking care of enormous quantities of Russian hides; built or enlarged factories for making the necessary tanning chemicals; built new boot and shoe factories and en larged old ones to make footwear lor the troops; established enor mous repairing plants to redeem leaky and worn army boots. They employ scores of thousands of poor people, mostly women, thus giving material aid in time of need. Schools for mechanics, chauffeurs and other specialists-are maintained to supply the army with experts and automo bile repair shops are operated by the committee all along the front. On the sea 1916 failed to bring to Russia any great victories. But al so it brought no defeats. Beyond one mysterious fight in a fog in the Baltic during which two German ships of medium tonnage and sever al destroyers were reported sunk; three or four odd destroyers; naval aid to the Russian armies at Riga and .at Trebizond in Asia Minor, not much more is known of Russia's maritime activities. Diplomatically two important events were riMi.6red during the year just closing. Both directly af fect the United States. One was the conclusion of a treaty between Rus sia and Japan binding these two countries together on all questions concerning the Far East, the second was Russia's refusal to conclude a commercial treaty with the United States . replacing the one abrogated during President Taft's administra tion. Her refusal was not official. but refusal It was, nevertheless, her excuse being the undesirability of entering into commercial agree ments with neutral nations until af ter the war or at leaBt until the al lies' trade agreement can be more definitely defined. A decree prohibiting the Importa tion of luxuries was promulgated during the year, three meatless days a week proclaimed and other eco nomic war measures put into force. But so far as Russia is concerned the real participation In the war by the common people was the big event. Through this participation the people are beginning to find themselves. The Information of a Peasants' party In the Duma is sig nificant of the new trend in Russia. It's worth remembering, Mr. Sub scriber and Mr. Advertiser, that the .cost of everything that goes to make a newspaper has risen, except the subscription and advertising rate.

"In a very lance proportion of the food articles exported the movements out of the country In September and In the nine months ending with September are less than there of the corresponding periods of lost year, so far s relates to quantity. True, there are some exceptions to this, but In a Urge proportion of the articles In question the exports of September of this year and of the nine months ending with September are leas than those of last year. As I understand the present situation the sudden advance which haa been made within the past few weeka In many arti cles Is based upon the sssertlon that there Is now a very large Increase of exports over the corresponding period of last year, and hence the necessity for the sudden In crease of prices st thepresent moment.'

Richard Croker, former Tammany leader and prominent race-horse owner In the United States, will send his horses to the starters on Amei'.can tracks again. He may take part In race meetings next summer, but probably will not have much of a string In the American meetings until the follow ing year. Before Croker left a short time ago for Palm Beach, Florida to spend the winter, he declared he would like nothing better than to see his Yale blue and gold tassols again sweeping down the tracks in competition with American horses. Ha has several youngsters, sired by Orby, his Derby winner, that he believes would be able to show thnir heels to the best horses on this stdnJ of the Atlantic. Croker Is a great admirer of the English system of breeding, and the results It has pro duced. Ho docs not heliove Amer ican bred horses will begin, to com pare with the English horses until several years bunco. Croker confided that he was re luctant to take part In the English moetltifrs while tho war Is ln.prog greBB.
