Han surgido serias dificuItades.

mediadores hicieron publlca Ia
correspondence que con el Sc
han cruzado para llegar a un
acuerdo que 10 pusiera en- aptitud
de tomar parte activa en- las con-
ferencias de paz. Dicha cores
pondencia Sc compone solo de
tres comunicaciones. La prime
"a, fechada en- Washington ell 3
de Mayo, consistente en- un tele.
grama, en- que los mediadores re-
tiran su invitaci6n a Carranza
por haberse rehusado a celebrar
I'm armisticio con los federales, y
cuyo texto va fue publicado.
La segunda communication, fe-
chada ell 2S de Mayo, esta firma-
da por Rafael Zubaran Capmany
en- representation de Carranza.
Dicha communication decia que
Carranza considerable que ell con-
flicto en- Mexico mo debfa ser
objeto de negociaciones, no es-
tando presentes en- las c%onferen-
cias los representatives del pri-
mer jefe del ejercito constitucio-
n~alista."
Los mediadores contestaron es-
ia nota ell 2 del corriente, reite-
rando su proposition te~legraica
del 2 de- Mayo en- que lie pedian
suspendiese las hostilidades con-
ira los federales. Dicha contes-
tacion termina ash: Isl asi fue-
re, nos tomamos la libertad de
sugerir por conducto de listed al
primer jefe de los CONSTRUCTIONS
listas, que Sc apresure a nombrar
sus representatives en- las confe-
rencias que ahora estamos He
vando a cabo."
A esta proposition no ha dado
Carranza respuesta alguna, y los
mediadores han creido rebajada
SUI dignldad 81 esperan mas
tempo al primer jefe" para que
defina su actitud, habiendole da-
do para clio mas de una semana.

La primera de las tres comu-
nicaciones de que Sc compone la
correspondence pEblicada, es ell
telegrama mandado por los me-
diadores a Carranza 81 3 de Ma

vitaci6n cue lie habian kecho por
haberse rehusado a entrar en- I'm
armisticio con los federales, y
dice como igue:
"Recibimos su atento mensaje
telegrafico de aver, en- que nos
comunica que no encontraba I'd.

THE PERAMBULATING SHOWCASE
BY Herbert Kaufman
Author of 'DO Something! Be Something's"

AuLnOT OI DO OOmetHlIlS! Dc OOWcIHlAiS.
The newspaper is a huge shop window carried about
the town and delivered regularly into thousands OF
homes to be examined at the leisure of the reader This
shop window is unlike the actual plate glass showcase
only in respect - it makes display Of descriptions
instead of articles.
You have often been impressed by thedifference be-
tween the decorations of two window trmmers each OF
whom employed the same materials for his work. The
drew your attention and held by the grace and
ceverness and art manifested in his display The other
realized so little of the possibilities in the materials
placed at his disposal that unless some one called your
attention to his medocrties you would have gone on I'M
conscious of their existence.
An advertiser must know that he gets his results IN
accordance with the skill exercised in preparing his
verbal displays. He must make people stop and pause
His copy has to stand out.
He must not only make show of things that are
attractive to the eye but attractive to the peoples
needs, as we'll
The window trimmer must not make the mistake of
thinking that the showiest stocks the most salabe
The advertiser must not make the mistake Of thinking
that the showiest words are the most clinching.
Windows are too few in number to be used with in
discretion The good merchant puts those goods back
of his plate glass which nine people out of ten will want,
once they have seen them.
The good advertiser tells about goods which nine
readers out Of ten will buy if they be convinced
Newspaper space itself is only the window, just
the showcase is but frame of merchandise pictures.

Washington, d. c., Dec. 5--Mem-
bers of both houses of congress are
F., flocking to Washington this week from
all corners of the country, to get lit
tie preliminary light on the program
of the administration and Of the min
| ority for the winter session. Military
expansion, our Mexican policy, a gov
ernment-owned merchant marine, Phil
ippine self-government and the various
appropriation bills are the topics of
earnest discussion in every hotel lobby.
/, Back In the corners of various COM
mittee rooms at the capitol, also, there
| is buzzing of opinion upon party
strategy as to changes in the rules.
Likewise the good old word patron
age" is whispered back and forth
where 1t will do the most good.
But of all themes Of statesmanly
talk the prime favorite this week is
the matter of bigger army and navy.
The fact that President Wilson has
invited Representative Gardner Of
Massachusetts, to come and tell him
why there should be public investi-
cation into our preparedness for war,
is taken to mean that the administra-
ton now realizes how far the militar-
list agitation has swept across the
country. The president and his cab
net say that there is no need for
! alarm-that the United States has a
sufficient navy and as large a standing
army as it has any need for. They
realize, however, as congress is on
the point of reassembling that the re-
! publicans and progressiyes in con-
gress will keep them continually in
hot water during the session unless
they show the utmost readiness to
| "open the books" on the whole ques-
ton.
! Closely allied to the navy problem is
the dilemma of the administration
democrats who few months ago
were calling for a goyernment-owned
merchant marine. They have been
reading few statistics since then,
and they have come to the conclusion
that with the seas practically cleared
of German cruisers there is no chance
of special advantage for American
over British and French ships. Since
the expenditure of hundred millions
or so by Uncle Sam, to set his flag
upon the trading fleets, would be only
a drop in the bucket in comparison
with the British and French totals, the
plan does not appeal SO strongly as it
did.
Further. the precedent of. govern
ment ownership of purely CONNER
cial enterprise, when the agitation for
government owned railroads and tele-
graph and telephone lines is becoming
more troublesome every day, has graf
ed upon the nerves of the delegations
from the south. These democrats
have turned over the page upon their
recent appeal for government pur-
chase of their cotton, and refuse to
see anything safe or sane in the ship
purchase idea. Chances favor the
Ottumwa tri-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1903-1916, 1914-12-08

abandonment of the whole proposition.
The Mexican situation gives plenty
of opportunity for both sides to claim
vindication. Carranaza is down and
out; Villa and Zapata, warmly praised
by the Brazilian minister and the state
department representatives for their
conduct in Mexico City, are at the top.
The democrats will declare that at
last the revolution has succeeded, and
that "watchful waiting" has brought
into power and responsibility the two
, leaders who practiced, as well as
preached, the distribution of farms to
the poems. The republicans can pre-
dict that new revolutions will appear
as soon as the Villa-Zapta regime has
had chance to develop its inefic-
iencies and to show it's merciless
spirit. A number of vigorous speeches
demanding American interference to
protect American interests In Mexico
are already being drafted.
Philippine self-govenment, as EN-.
bodied in the Jones bill which passed
the house prior to Adjournment, will
give texts for the usual number of
yellow peril" warnings in the senate.
The measure will 60 through appar-
entity, when it comes to a vote, but the
debate will give rise to speeches which
will deal with the whole future OF the
United States as world power, and
the need for looking to the safety Of
our outposts in the Pacific in the day
of a clash of the white and yellow
races.
President Wilson is keeping close.
| lv locked in his head the names of the
men he has chosen for the new fed
eral trade commission. 1t Is still ex
pected that Joseph Davies of Wiscon.
sin, now head of the bureau OF cor
porations, will be made chairman OF
the new board, since the entire stan
of the bureau will be placed under the
direction of the board. What men dis
tinguished in the science of trade OF
in the field of national economics will
be chosen to the other four places
will not be known until the moment
that Mr.. Wilson himself reveals their
identity.
Despite the fact that President VIII
son has indicated his lack OF sym
pathy with the kindergarten idea, the
United States bureau Of education mas
just issued a new bulletin describing
the kindgarten in its work as "hu
manizing factor" in orphanages and
similar institutions.
1.-The kindergarten and trained KIN
dergartner are of special value to In
stitutions,'' says the report, because
they substitute the maternal spirit FOL
that of mere constituted authority In
dealing with child life. The biggest
bill the community has to pay is that
run up by pauperism, vice and crime
Little can be expected from remedies
applied to chronic cases; only proven.
ton can beg enuinely beneficial and
prevention is the peculiar office OF the
