CONFIDENCE REIGNS.
Outlook for Agreement at Algeciras
 Seems Bright.

cNSuhS oNtBhts
 Algeciras, March 1.-The committee on reduction having in charge the ad- justment of the remaining differences between France and Germany over the Moroccan police question and the ques- tion of the bank assembled twice to- day. On the bank question an agree ment was reached on every point ex- cept the allotment of the capital, which will probably be left to the decision of the conference. The police question was not touched during the sittings to- day. The delegates, however, went over the situation informally and a feel ing of confidence reigns among the rep resentatives of the neutral powers that a settlement of the question will be reached within a week.
 London, March 12.-The correspondent of the Daily Mail at Algeciras repre- sents France as having been coerced by the neutral powers into making con- sessions on the police question, proba- bly, as the result of apprehension on the part of the powers that failure of the conference would mean war. The cor respondent declares that for France Ito enter Morocco as one of two powers subject to the domination of a third power would be suicidal. It would be better for France, he says, to surrender all her interests in Morocco rather than to suffer such a loss of prestige.

Electors: Here's the Way to
Ballot for Honest Judges.

T< HE best way to insure against the mistake of
voting for Conlan and Mogan is to vote first
the NON-PARTISAN Judicial Ticket. This
is Ticket G, at the bottom of the machine
The proper way to vote this ticket is to pull the
straight ticket knob over to the right. The voter
should then turn UP the pointers the first twen
ty places this ticket they blank and if not
turned UP the will lose his vote for Governor
and other officers. But vote the JUDICIAL ticket
FIRST
The voter who does not care to vote the Non
Partisan Judicial ticket, but who wants to vote for
honest Judges, should UP the pointers over the
names of Cook, Conlan and Mogan, if they appear
his ticket, and turn DOWN the pointers over the
names of Cooper, Lawlor, Graham, Cofey and
Hosrner.
Remember that to vote straight Republican
Democrat Union Labor ticket is to vote for Cook
Conlan and Mogan.
Go to the polls early. Take all the time neces-
sary to prepare your ballot. Be sure the pointers
you turn down STAY down until you move the
curtain handle to the Left
Remember when you pull the straight ticket
knob over to the right you must turn UP the point
ers over the of COOK, CONLAN and MO-
GAN before you vote for the honest Judges.
