One by one Missouri counties
are cleaning up" All dry leg
islation introduced in the last
general assembly was blocked by
the liquor forces and il is an op-
en- sesret that the big brewers
and distillers were back Of the
million dollar road amendment
that was Instrumental in defeat
ing the county unit amendment
at the last election. But when
the farm folks get to take . di-
rect shot at Old Man Booze there
isn't much question about the
outcome.
The latest dry victory is in ST.
Francois County, considered one
Of the wettest counties in the
state. Pennington. the county
seat, set a worthy example sew
eral months ago. Last month
the county outside of F Pennington
swatted the saloons to the tune
of a 900 majority. Sc. Francois
County is south of st. Louis and
in the heart of the lead mining
district. Farmers and miners
combined to pat booze out of busi-
ness and doubtless neighboriDg
counties will fall in line. Our
prediction that liquor will be out
lawed from every Missouri com
munity, except possibly the cities
of ST. Joseph, st. Louis and Kan
sas City within i've years. may
be verified In less time.
The Missouri Ruralist editor
recently had an interesting con-
versation with Judge Peter Huck
of Ste. Genevieve County. Mr..
Hack has been presiding Judge
of the twenty-seventh Judicial
district, including the counties
of Bolliuger, Madison. Perry, st.
Francois and Ste. Genevieve, for
four years. Judge Huck told as
that there had been q decided
change in sentiment during his
ineumbency and that he would
not be surprised to see the entire
district vote dry. He also assert
ed that liquor was responsible
for q large part of the crime
cases tried before him. Judge
Huck has twice been elected az .
wet" but he has rendered his
decisions so inpartially that the
liquor interests "swore him OF"
the bench in q contested election
some time ago. Evidently they
we're afraid Of getting a square
deal.
Since last winters Legislative
fiasco, Miller County and Taney
County have taken a second vote
on local option. Both voted dry.
by increased majorities. Carroll
ton, q Missouri River town, con-
sidered by the saloon element to
be 80 wet you could wiring it,
sprung = surprise last month by
voting dry, and a county election
to complete the job will be held
soon. In the six elections held
this year, the vets have won but
once. Monett, in Barry County
went wet BY seven votes and
temperance workers are contest
ing the election. Good bye. Mr..
Booze. and no noregrets.-Missouri

PREPAREDNESS PLAN.

New York, Nov. 12.-Former Sena-
tor Elihu Root, president of the Union
league club, presided last night at a
meeting of the club at which reso-
luton was passed in favor of ma
tional defense program bigger than
that proposed by the administration,
one that will include universal mill
tary service Of all able-bodied men,
and navy of forty-eight ships of the
first line with full equipment.
In presenting the resolution Senator
Root said:
"The war in Europe is not the cause
of movement for preparation for de-
fense. That cause has long existed,
the war in Europe is but the demon
stration striking the Imagination and
convincing the judgment of the peo-
pie Of the United States upon the ne
cessity for the adequate preparation
for defense.
do not let us deceive ourselves.
Adequate preparation for preservation
of our liberty means vast expendl-
ture. but it means more than that; it
means willingness for self-sacrifice,
national spirit among the people of
the land and determination to pre-
serve the liberty, and justice of the
American republic"

Wilson Meets With Cabinet
But Nothing Definite on
the Session Is Known

Washington, D. c., Nov. 12-State
department officials were perplexed
today over the unexplained delays in
getting definite Official information on
the sinking of the Italian liner An
coma with probable loss of American
passengers. No dispatches had reach
ed the state department early today,
although Secretary Lansing had con-
fidently expected to get word from
Rome, Marseilles and other points
near the scene of the disaster. All
information SO far has been fragmen-
tary.
A consular official has been ordered
to Tunis from a nearby port on the
assumption that Consul James B.
Young is not there and on the offici-
ais arrival he Is expected to get dis
patches through as quickly as pos
sible. Meanwhile Ambassador Page
at Rome is expected to send some de-
finite fficial details. His official dis
patches so far make no reference to
the circumstances of the firing on the
liner, the question Of warning, the
nationality of the submarine and 9TH
er details which are to be cleared up
as promptly as possible by the taking
of testimony of survivors.
Cabinet Meets.
President Wilson and the cabinet
met today for the first time since last
July, when the German submarine
question was at one of its most seri-
GUS stages. The sinking of the ltal-
ian liner Ancona was the most i'm
portant foreign question before the
cabinet today but no definite action
was expected until full official details
were at hand.
It, was stated at the white house,
however, that the cabinet meeting TO-
day was called only because the pres1-
dent wanted to get in touch with his
official advisers before the opening OF
congress to discuss his annual mes
sage and legislation affecting their
departments. From now on cabinet
meetings will be neld regularly twice
a week.

starr Jordan, chancellor of Leland
Stanford university and head OF the

@ neid IN San Francisco, told President
wilson today that quasi-offi cial
meeting OF neutral nations probably
Will be held some time before Christ
mas. either at The Hague, Berne or
at Copenhagen in an attempt to bring
ABOUT peace In Europe. DR.. Jordan
conveyed to the president a resolu.
ton from the peace congress urging
him to cooperate with other neutrals
IN calling such a conference.
In such a statement laid before the
president by DR.. Jordan, 1t was de-
clared that as a result of the recent
missions to the governments OF the
warning nations, 1T could be stated
that while the nations at war were
not willing themselves to begin nego-
tiations for peace, there is never
theless abundant evidence that those
charged with the administration Of
the foreign policies Of these nations
would be welcome or at least not op-
pose affirmative action by neutral
agency to bring about peace based
on international Justice"
DR.. Jordan said that while no Of
fetal information was available,
peace advocates had learned from un-
Off cial sources in Holland, Sweden,
Denmark and Spain that
those countries would be glad to take
part in any movement to further the
cause of peace. DR.. Jordan was &C
companied by Louis P. Lochner, sec
retary of the Chicago Peace society
and who acted as secretary to Miss
Jane Addams of Chicago when she
visited Europe as a representative OF
the Women's Peace congress, and
much of the information communicat-
ed to the president today was gather

position that he will be glad to do

GERMANS IN THE DARK.

Berlin, Nov. 12.-The Ancona case
as yet belongs to the category of sub
marine incidents regarding which
German naval circles have no news
except that which comes from hostile
sources. Even the semi-ofi cial an
nouncements made yesterday that the
Ancona was attempting to escape,
was derived from accounts sent out
by the Havas and Stefani news agen-
cies.
Nothing has beer published here
from the Austrian side and it was stat
ed at the admiralty that; SO far as
known the Austrian government had
received no report of the incident
