Peace.
Joseph H. Choate and twenty-four
others have been associated for some
years in the execution Of trust to pro-
mote international peace and their
duties have involved a continual sur
vey of the efforts to that end through
out the world.
They wiSf~to say to all friends of
peace that the dreadful war now raging
affords no just cause for discourage
ment, no discredit to past efforts, and
no reason to doubt that still greater
efforts in the the future may be effect
i've and useful.
The war itself is teaching the gospel
of peace through a lesson so shocking
and so terrible that the most indiffer-
ent can not fail to attend and under
stand it.
Not only have the destruction of life,
the devastation and the suffering in the
warning countries passed all experience,
but the cessation of production, the
closing of markets, the blockading OF
trade routes, the interruption of ex-
changes, have effected industry and
caused ruin and poverty in all the
peaceful countries of the world.
The universal interdependence of ma
lions has been demonstrated and the
truth forced upon every mind that the
peace of all nations is the vital concern
of every nation.
To cast our weak protest now among
the tremendous forces that are urging
on the great conflict would be futile
but the end of this war Will come before
long and then the great question vii
stand for answer:
/ Shall the lesson be forgotten; the
sacrifice lost?
That question the belligerent nation.
only viii have the power to answer; bu
every one in the world viii be entitled
to be heard upon it, for it will be i;
question of civilization, the most mo
mentous of our era.
1t seems incredible that after this tn,
stricken people viii set their feet in tn,
same old paths of policy and suspicion
which must lead them again to tn,
same result.

A Protest.

The following resolutions were pass
ed by a unanimous vote at the meeting
of the State Editorial Association, as
sembled in Topeka on January 3Oth:
Whereas, an unfair attempt is being
made to extend the scope OF the State
Printing Plant beyond its legitimate
field, to the detriment of the publish
ing and printing business of the state;
and,
Whereas, it is no more the province
of the state to interfere with the legiti-
mate printing and publishing business
than it is for it to engage in the gro
Gerry, dry goods, farming, banking or
other business; and,
Whereas, Kansas is andy equipped
with private plants sin which great
amount of capital is invested, furnish
ing employment to labor In every town
within its borders.
Therefore, Be it resolved that we,
the Kansas State Editorial Association,
hereby protest against attempt to put
the state in unfair competition with the
printers and publishers of Kansas, and
that we further state that we believe
that such action is against public policy,
in that it is using the money of the tax
payers to increase the number of state
employees, add to the burden of the tax
payer, cripple plants already establish
ed, and throw men and women out of
employment; and in view of the further
fact that the cost of state printing has
never been fairly determined, we would
request the legislature of the State of
Kansas to order a thorough and impair
tial investigation by uninterested print
ing cost experts, of the cost of all state
printing and the prices paid by the
state for all printing supplies and
equipment, before any further steps
are taken to place the state in competi-
ton with the printing industry, which
ranks sixth in Importance in the bnsi-
ness of the United States; and,
Be It Further Resolved, that copy
of this resolution be Immediately print
ed, and the Secretary instructed to
mail a copy to every member of the
Senate and of the House.
The other resolution is as follows:
Resolved, that the members of the
State Editorial Association pledge their
opposition to any U. S. Senator or
representative in Congress who will
not pledge himself to vote against the
practice of the Government printing
individual return cards on stamped en-
velopes. ~

DODGE BROTHERS NEW CAR ON
EXHIBITION IN HAYS.
Thousands Visit SaIesrOOms Of F. N
DreiIins 8. Co., Local Dealer, to
Inspect Long Awaited Car
Of Mystery.


Inspect Long Awaited Car
Of Mystery.
Dodge Brothers car has arrived To
hundreds of Hays motorists, the above
message that was flashed along automo-
bile row Saturday, was the signal for
an excited dash to the salesrooms of F.
Il. Dreiling & Co., local dealer for
Dodge Brothers. Probably never be-
fore In the history of the automobile
has the advent Of new motor car been
awaited with interest equal to that
shown by thousands of automobiles in
all sections of the country.
In the first two hours, following the
opening of Mr.. Dreiling's salesroom,
Saturday, a constant stream of visitors
poured through the entrance, anxious
to secure their first glimpse of the car
which has been appropriately called the
Gear of Mystery" Judging by the
universal comments of the critical visit
ors and rival dealers in the city, the
new car is all and more than the public
had expected from the builders
''In bringing out their new motor car,
Dodge Brothers wisely determined not
to court an advance appeal says Mr..
Dreiling, local dealer. ''No whit Of in
formation was to be divulged until
Dodge Brothers idea of a motor car
stood complete in every detail. That
the automobile dealers of the country
reposed an immense confidence in the
big Detroit company is shown by the
fact that over IA 900 dealers wrote in
for the privilege of selling the car, be-
fore any detail of price or specifications
had been released from the factory
In Hays as elsewhere, we have taken
orders from customers merely on the
confident belief that Dodge Brothers
would establish new standard of value
in the automobile industry"
Dodge Brothers new automobile is a
real car in every particular. Freakish
design has been carefully avoided and
the beautiful stream-line body is COM
bined with a powerful 30-35 horsepower
motor, to make an ideal car for five
passengers. It is big roomy car in
every sense of the word, having wheel
base of 10 inches and wheels % by 81
inches. The motor is cast en- bloc and
has a bore of 37s inches and stroke,
AZ inches. Electric lighting and start
ing apparatus is included, and the equip
ment in every way suggests the car of
So, 600 rather than one of $685. The
price which Dodge Brothers have made.
Real leather upholstry and the latest
type of self lubricating springs makes
the car one of the easiest riding
machines that has ever been marketed.
Among the unusual features on the car
is the speedometer drive, which is con-
nected directly to the transmission, and
is therefore practically trouble proof.
The arrangement of the transmission
gears is also a novel one, no gears ex-
cept the third being IN operation when
the car is driven on direct drive.
Dodge Brothers have just finished
the erection of two immense new build
ings 1000 feet and 800 feet long re-
spectively, to add to the already large
facilities of their Detroit plant.

FOIL ESCAPE PLOT
Ten Federal COnvictS at Leav-
enworth Attempt Break.
Huge Negro With Hack Saw
Attacked Prison Guard.

Leavenworth, Kan, Oct 1S.-A plot
Tor the delivery of ten of the most
desperate prisoners in the federal
prison here Sunday night failed, when
Richard Brown, a guard, gave battle
10 Joe Lewis, a huge negro prisoner
armed with hack saw. The attempt
was made in the isolation ward where
arc confined the most desperate men
fth the saw Lewis severed the lock
OF his cell and escaped into the cor
ridor, where he 1eaped on Brown from
the rear
The negro demanded the keys to the
otner cells of the ward on the threat
OF cutting the guards throat with the
saw. Brown resisted and the scuffle
attracted other guards who succeeded
IN suoduing Lewis. The Officials of
the prison believe the plan has been
under way several days during which
halr dozen of the recognized bad
men OF the institution have commit
TED unprovoked attacks on guards
with the intention of getting into the
isolation ward, where they could all
get together to make the break Their
escape from the isolation ward would
nave given them a good chance to
gain their freedom through the in
completed east cell wing.

PUT WOMEN In SHOPS
Mrs. Harriet Stanton BIatch Deems
Her Industrial Training Imperative.

New York. Oct. 1S.-Mrs. Harriet
Stanton Batch, president of the
Woman's Political union, who has
just returned from a two months stay
studied war conditions in France and
England, was convinced, she said to-
day, that women should be systemat-
ically trained to take the places of
men in industrial pursuits in time of
war.
Were such a system now in ex-
istence in France and England, said
Mrs. Blatch, leach of these countries
could Immediately put into the war an
additional army corps
Mrs. Blatch said she believed COM
pulsory military service for men a
necessity. Concerning suffrage she
said:
"At the end of the war the men of
France and England will be ready to
grant suffrage to women, because the
women have shown what they can,
and will. do. The greatest opposition
to suffrage in England is from the
labor trades. especially the munitions
workers and the machine workers,
who resent the taking of their places
by women
