PEACE PACT MADE,
BERLIN DECLARES
ArmiStiCe Said to Be Virtually
Agreed Upon.
TROOPS GO ON TO TRlPoLI
Desert Tribes Are Massing in Africa
to Wage Holy War on "InfideIs"
Derna SheIIed by
Italians.

Berlin.-An armistice between
italy and Turkey, it is believed
here, has practically been concluded,
although not yet announced as "of-
fetal"
1t is understood that the transporta-
ton of the Italian military expedition
will not be interfered with, but that
hostilities in all quarters will cease.
Italy, according to this announce
ment, will carry out it's intention of &C.
cupying Tripoli, and Will continue the
movement of troops in that direction,
pending negotiations. In the mean
time, it is understood, hostilities will
not occur.
This Is considered in Berlin as
equivalent to the ending of the war,
or at least the warlike movements,
which will now be succeeded by nego-
tiations looking to settlement.
Derna-Derna was bombarded and
hospitals and barracks were damaged
as well as other buildings. Many
were killed and wounded. The bonn
bardment followed an unsuccessful
attempt by Italian DlueJackeIS IO
make a successful landing from a
warship in the harbor.
Tripoli.-The Italian military expe-
dition landed at Tripoli and occupied
the town.
The transports bearing portion of
the Italian expeditionary forces were
escorted by warships and accom-
panied by the hospital ship Regina
d'Italia. The Decentralization of the
troops began Immediately, the great
est enthusiasm prevailing.
The batteries of the fleet all through
the night shelled the surrounding
country, which was swept by the
searchlights. Tripoli has nothing more
to fear from Turkish attacks.

JAMES B. MCNAMARA TO
BE FIRST TO FACE JURY
Los Angeles District Attorney Selects
Younger of Two Brothers for
Trial for Murder.

Los Angeles, Cal.-The trial of
James B. Mcnamara, who is
charged with the murder of Charles
J. Haggerty, who was killed in the
blowing up of the Times building, was
adjourned after a brief session in
which oen Venireman was partially
examined
District Attorney John D. Fredericks
had nineteen indictments to choose
from. He had two prisoners on whom
to open his fire. He chose the young
er of the two Mcnamara brothers,
sending John ]. Mcnamara back to his
cell to await the outcome of the first
trial. He selected the Haggerty case
because Haggerty, a machinist en-
ployed by the Los Angeles Times On
October 1, 1910, was found dead near
est the place where the explosion &C.
Cured that wrecked the building and
killed twenty-one men.
The prosecution contends that this
explosion was caused by dynamite;
the defense that it was caused by
gas.
Counsel for the defense, headed by
Clarence S. barrow of Chicago, in
questions to the jury and arguments
to Judge Bordwell sought to depict a
mighty contest between organized
labor-the McNamaras are union
men-and it's opponents, without much
opposition from the prosecution.
Attorney Lecompte Davis, eXamin-
ing jurors, headed straight for this
point in the examination of 2. T.
Nelson, the first venireman examined.

SEES EVIL IN INITIATIVE.
Archbishop Ireland Also Attacks the

HECIlDlSHOp lTSiaHU CiSO HlldCNS tiiS
Referendum and Recall.
Council Bluffs, lathe initiative,
referendum and recall were termed
the weapons Of mobocracy by Arch
bishop Ireland in an address here at
the banquet of the Army of the Ten
nessee. Archbishop Ireland said:
And now the clamor is heard that
the organization of American democ-
raGy such as the republic has known
for a century and a quarter must be
altered, torn asunder, under the pre-
tense that with it the people do not
govern with sufficient directness. Let
us hope that this clamor is but pass
ing ebullition of feeling, soon to sink
back into the tranquil seriousness of
thought usually underlying the move
ments of the masses of the people to
be there buried in the silence of OBJ
livion.
"The initiative, the referendum, the
recall, put into general practice, as
the evangelists Of the new social Cos
pei would fain have them, are nothing
more nor less than the madness Of
democracy"

SPLENDID CANADIAN
CROPS
Wheat, Oats and Barley Uni'
VersaIIy Good Throughout
Manitoba, Saskatchewan
and Alberta.

The reports that come to hand from
the wheat fields of the western Cana
dian provinces show remarkably good
yields in all parts. Yields are record
ed of wheat going 35 and 40 bushels
in many places, and oats from 60 to
100 bushels per acre. Barley and fax
are splendid. The thousands of Amer
leans throughout the United States
who have friends in Manitoba, Sas-
katchewan or Alberta will be pleased
to learn Of the great success that
has followed their efforts. Many Of
these have not confined themselves to
the growing of grain, but have also
gone into the cattle industry. On the
luxurious grasses that are so album
dant there, in almost all districts,
make this industry safe and profitable.
The land sales reported by the rail-
way companies and by the different
land companies show the great in
crease that will likely take place
during the next year in farming oper-
atoms. What has bGen said time and
time again may now be we'll repeated,
that there is no place on the Ameri-
can continent where the same oppor-
tunities are afforded the man looking
for home, for the young man start
ing out in life, the man with a grow
ing up family, who desires wider
scope for his ambition. The Cana
dian government agents located at
different points in the states will be
glad to advise the reader of the condi-
tions, and relate to him instances of
the great success that has followed
farming in Western Canada.
