LONDON. Dec. 3e.-After a fortnight
of sparring and feinting Turkey finally
has shown her hand in the peace con-
ference. Mediation by the great powers
is the Ottoman scheme for emerging
from the war.
The Turkish delegates proposed this
solution In guarded terms today. The
meeting was brief and more strained
than any that preceded it, and the
Turkish tactics were Characteristic.
The delegation had received fresh in
structions from the porte. Rechad Pasha
announced. but part of the telegram
was undecipherable and must be repeat
ed to Constantinople for translation.
Then Rechad Pasha said he was able to
state that most of the questions under
discussion should be referred to the
powers. The boundary between Bulga-
ria and Turkey was an exception. That
was a matter, he said. for direct settle
ment between the two governments.
The Turkish delegates attempted to
discuss the questions at issue formally,
but the allies insisted that they should
put their propositions in writing. which
the Turks said they were not prepared
to do.
CRISIS COMING WEDNESDAY
The allies propose to bring affairs to
crisis wednesday. by a statement in
the nature of an ultimatum. They ex-
press the determination not to waste
more time in waiting for telegraphic
consultations, real or pretended, be-
tween Constantinople and the Turk
ish delegates In London.
Mediation has advantages from the
Turkish viewpoint The tendency of
such an arrangement always is in the
direction of a compromise. In the
second place mediation would save the
Turkish governments prestige in the
eyes Of the people by making it ap-
pear that Turkey comedies the sacri-
fees. which she inevitably must make,
to the pressure of all Europe, instead
of at the diotation of the Balkan
states
The first consideration, from the
standpoint Of the allies, is opposed to
their interests. Such solution as
mediation offers would be of further
disadvantage to them, in that certain
powers-Austria and Italy-could not
be considered as disinterested arbi-
traitors.
sULTAN's DESIGN EXPOSED
The Turkish design in presenting
counter proposals which left an enor-
nous gulf between them and the allies
proposals was to create a situation in
which mediation would appear justih-
able-even necessary. Their argument
ID that never has a mediator given a
verdict entirely favorable to one side
without compensation to the other.
And the capital argument remains
that whatever Turkey would be forced
to ceoe, her Mussulman population,
particularly the semibarbarous tribes
OF Arabia and Anatolia, would swallow
the bitter pill with fewer grimaces if
convinced it was administered by a
coalition of Europe.
In the camp of the allies the proposal
for mediation has been received with
varying degrees of dissatisfaction. All
are agreed that mediation would be
possible OF acceptance only If the

Mr.. and Mrs. Brody Entertain

Last Friday evening some IS
friends of Mr.. and Mrs. J. B.
Brody enjoyed the hospitality of the
Broad A Ranch. Geniality was
supreme and the hours spent at
playing five hundred" proved to
be most pleasant ones. The high
est scores at the card games were
made by Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
Chastek while the consolation
prizes were awarded to Miss Susan
Chastek and J. I. Monks.
After the card games the hostess,
assisted by several friends, served
dainty lunch. Music was the
feature of the entertainment after
lunch and such a general good time
was being had that the guests were
loath to make their departure at ar
hour past midnight.

Diamonds From Sugar.

1t can be stated with perfect truth
that lump of sugar may be turned
into diamonds. Not all the substance
of the sugar. OF course, will enter into
the composition OF the gem, but only
the carbon that 1t contains. Sugar
consists OF carbon united with oxygen
and hydrogen. The carbon can be
easily separated out. and in certain ex-
periments for the production Of dia-
monds this sugar carbon has been en-
ployed. The diamonds so produced
were, of course, very small and des-
titute OF commercial value, but still
they are real diamonds, and the
chemical result achieved would be no
greater intrinsically IL they were as
large as the Kohinoor. The hope has
often been held out that an improve
ment In the process OF manufacturing
diamonds may be effected whereby
the necessity OF dissolving the carbon
In molten iron may be dispensed with,
and the required combination OF great
pressure with great heat may be
brought about by some such opera
ton as squeezing the carbon between
red hot metal plates.

I'VE condemn the practice of
the county commissioners voting
the hundreds and thousands OF
dollars to advertise this county.
These advertisements serve mainly
to boom the value of land now held
by the large corporations who will
not use it themselves and let no
one else use it unless paid an ex-
orbitant price.

TITLE BILL PASSED MONDAY
Passage Secured Of Bill Containing
Concessions For Homesteaders

Washington, July 20. By the
passage today by the house of rep
resentatives of the title bill the
homesteaders of the west are given
boon, for the measure provides
that their reclamation entries can
pass to patent without all payments
for water rights being made, as is
the case at the present time. Con-
gresham Burton l.. French is
entitled to a great deal of credit
for the successful passage of the
bill through the house. This mea-
sure will make it possible for the
settlers on arid lands to secure
patent to their lands without max
ing all of the payments for their
water. 1t will be of almost untold
benefit to many of the settlers
owing to the fact that they will
not be forced to have their title held
off because they have been unable
to meet their payments.
Copies of the bill will be forward
ed to the land offices i'll the west.
In its passage through the senate
the bill will be in the hands of
Senator William L. Borah.
