AL ENGLAND |S
 FOR PROHIBITION
L.Any Measure Which Will Increase Ef' ficiency of Army Will Be Eag-
 erIy Welcomed.

LONDON, April 3.-The warning sounded by Lloyd George, chancellor of the exchequer, that England is in greater danger from the unstinted use of liquor than from the nations with whom she is at war, is causing widespread discussion of the subject. It is believed that the government will issue the order prohibiting the manufacture or sale of liquor during the war.
 The women of England have en. dorsed the movement and are put ting the same energy into securing prohibition which they manifested in securing recruits for the army last year when the males showed an in- clination to let others do the fighting. All the churches and many of the leading newspapers are favoring the issuance of the order.
 Lord Kitchener, chief of staff of the British army, himself rcohibitionist. is reported as having stated that the abolition of liquor would increase the efficiency of the army. He believes the favorable showing made by the Russian armies against the Germans as compared with the Russo-Japan- ,, e$e war is largely due to the aboli- tibn of liquor.

r. 0. Richards has taken an APP
peal to the supreme court from
the decision OF Judge Taylor which
holds tnat the legislature had a
right to enact a new primary Law
to supplant the Richards law. The
Richards law was an initiated
measure, passed by vote of the
people, and it is claimed by some
good authorities that such mea-
sures can only be amended or re-
repealed by a vote of the people.
This is a point that has never been
decided by the supreme court and
its action in the pending case will
be quite important.

cept Carranza, who insists that tie
only way to secure peace in Mexi.
co is to recognize him as the logi.

tenths of the Mexican people with
him. The plan of the conference,
we believe, is simply to hold con
ference of all factions and agree
upon provisional government to
hold until a legal election can be
held to select permanent officers.

The management of the Hutch

victory last week. The agricultu-
raj exhibits were fine and the live

ranged that there was something
doing to interest the crowd all the
time. Thursday was the big day,
and on that day about 1000 peo.
pie were on the ground. This was
Scotland and Menno day and both
places were we'll represented. It is
estimated that over 600 were pres
ent from Scotland. There were
two closely contested harness races,
an exciting running race, two good
ball games, besides some good
aorobatlc stunts. The wind pre-
vented the balloon ascension, but
there was enough to amuse the
crowd without this feature. A pa.

Miss Margaret is holding down

ing school.

Mrs. VIM. Flamming last week
received the sad news that her
brother, Ed. Klufa, had died at his
home in Billings, Oklahoma, his
death being caused by typhoid few
er. Mr.. Kulfa lived in Tyudaii
until twelve years ago when he
moved TO Oklahoma. He enjoyed
a wide acquaintance here and his
friends are indeed sorry to hear If
bis comparatively ecdden death.
That the Indian is not only be.
coming civilized but also rapidly
learning the tricks of the white
man was evidenced here last Fri
day evening. The band which lad
been secured for Old Settlers Day
announced that they would give a
war dance in the McKenna Hall
charging a quarter admittance fee.
After they had secured all the
quarters possible they repaired to
the street where the war dance was
given in the open and she man
who only cared to drop in 'jitney'
when the hat was passed saw as
much as the fellow who paid
quarter for a reserved seat in the
hall.
Friends of W. R. Williams were
shocked Tuesday when the news
was circulated that he had died
suddenly that morning near his
home in the east part Of town. It
seems that he had been enjoying
his usual good health up to the
time of his deatL. He had just
taken his COW to some vacant lots
nearby when he was suddenly
stricken and fell to the ground.
His granddaughter was the first to
reach his side and SO ing that her
grandfather was in a serious con-
dition called to Il. M. Buchholz who
happened to be passing. Mr..
Buchholz summoned medical as
sistance and did all in his power
to revive the unfortunate man, but
life was extinct before physician
could reach the scene. Funeral
services are being held this after
noon.
