LAUNCH ANOTHER
PEACE MOVEMENT
CARDINAL GIBBONS, DEAN Oe
COLLEGE OF CARDINALS CON-
FERS WITH WILSON.

Washington. - Cardinal Gibbons
dean of the College of Cardinals, pre-
sented to President Wilson a conf
Dental communication from Pope
Benedict, inviting and urging TINS
government to cooperate with the
Vatican and neutral nations to bring
about peace in Europe.
A conference on the same subject
was held later at the State Depart
ment between Cardinal Gibbons ana
Secretary of State Lansing.
After his visits and confidential talk
to and with the president, Cardlnal
Gibbons said:
q think the prospects for peace
are Frightening"
This statement, expressing the Judg-
ment of a representative of the pope,
after comforting with President Will
son. is regarded here as indicating
that definite results so far as future
action by this government and the
Vatican are concerned are already
being achieved.
Cardinal Gibbons, the secretary or
state and the president declined 10
! reveal the details of the pope's suS-
gestion. 1t was stated at the White
House, in fact, that the president
would not discuss the subject at all
Cardinal Gibbons said;
81 only can tell you that | conveyed
to the president message from the
holy father, and that the message re
lated to the subject Of peace. The
message cannot be made public yet;
if | receive authority, | shall be glaC
to make it public The authority musj
come from Rome and we will have
to confer about that.
81 regard the settlement of the con
0 troversy between the United State
and Germany as affording an eXcep
tional opportunity for peace proposals
and as having placed the United
States in a most advantageous posi-
ton to act in this direction.
y "My interview with the presiden
su was most gratifying. 1t would, o
do ,ourse, be improper for me to spea
,ens, detail regarding the conferenc
G, suth the president, but | may say tn

The county seat election in Mont
gomery county resulted In Wombie's
defeat. In the northern part OF the
county there was practically no vote
at all. as the people understood by re-
naming away from the polls they
would be counted against the removal.
In one eastern township and in one
township in the western part OF the
county the vote was something ike
half of the strength of the two TOWN.
ebins In the southern townships the
returns show a good vote. In some
townships, it is alleged, more than lhe
entire vote as shown by the list OF
taxpayers was polled for WombIe In
some of the townships, it is said many
of the voters refused to vote because
they were against the removal.
The people of Mount Ida resent
Womble's suggestion of fraud, when in
all the townships where heavy votes
were polled they were polled FOR
Womble. In three townships, Where
Womble claims no election was held,
the reason was that sufficient num-
Der of judges and clerks could not be
had to hold the election. The people
in these townships did not want to
vote, and the idea of no election was
their own. In these townships Mount
Ida had never sent any representative
before election day, and in no town
ships did they undertake to prevent
the election being held.
Many people here hope that Womble
will decide to contest the election
They say they feel confident that when
all irregular and disqualified ballots
are taken from the vote that Womble
will fail by at least 200 votes,
