The TELEPHONE MERGER is being considered by
the State Public Service Commission. The Com
mission has learned that the Bel Company owns the sup
posedy independent Consolidation " formerly the Ma

a fake
Now the Bell Company is anxious tomerge, and con-
tends that the service could be improved The merger is
opposed by interests and both have made their ar

There is out one thing for the Commission to decide,

out at once and that telephone service should not be IN

LONDON PAPERS shy
At PEACE PROPOSALS

London, Sept. 5.-The London press
almost without exception Endorsed the
attitude of the government that there
must be no peace with Germany until
the menace of "Prussian militarism'
is removed.
The German intimation as to posi-
BILE peace terms elected lengthy edi-
torial comments from the morning pa
pers. They were unanimous in
scouting the idea of an early peace
and treated with greatest scorn the
German statement that freedom OF
the seas, freedom for Poles and equal
rights for the Jews were subjects upon
which peace discussions must turn.
This statement from the German
EMBASSY $; comic in its disingenuous
futility, said the Daily Express. BE
fore the var the seas were free for
all the shipping of the world and this
new Teutonic demand for freedom
merely means that Great Britain is to
surrender the power that comes from
it's predominant navy and to rob it.

offense and defense"

FRIENDS OF PEACE

Applaud Tribute to Wilson and
Attack on Arms Shipment.

Chicago. Sept. Prolonged ap.
plause greeted William j. Bryan in
his address before the national con-
vention of the Friends of Peace when
he said:
II want you to be thankful that
this country's president loves peace
and is trying with every means at his
disposal, to preserve our country's
peace"
Shortly before the delegates had
cheered Congressman Henry Vollmer
of Iowa while he attacked the admin
istration for permitting shipments OF
war munitions from America to Eu-
rope.
Before adjourning the convention
instructed it's officers to make known
to President Wilson and congress the
purposes Of the Friends of Peace, as
embodied in resolutions adopted.
The resolutions, which were styled
"a new declaration of independence"
made no formal demand for an en-
barge on munitions of war, but de-
clared for the freedom OF the seas to
all commerce, including that with all
belligerent nations, and opposed man
ufacture of death dealing implements
for profit.
