OF War Garrison, the officials of the
Security League have decided to CON
centrate their energies in an impress
sive campaign in November and De-
cember for the purpose of influence
ing congressman on the ground that,
since the ads .histration is openly
favorable to ample national defense,
the only possibleAsource of opposition
lies in the house
Members of the conference commit
tee credit olopell E. NJ House with
convincing President Wilson that the
agitation for preparedness did not
originate in politics and with inducing
the president to make defense an ad-
ministration policy
Henry A. Wise Wood, chairman of
the conference committee of national
preparedness, took up the question
with Colonel House at the instance of
John Hays Hammond, and assured
him that prominent men of all parties
were backing the movement for pre-
paredness and were not animated by
politics. The conference with Colonel
House took place shortly after his re-
turn from Europe. 1t was followed BY
President Wilson's call for reports on
army and navy needs and his author
ization of the Plattsburg camp.
The conference committee has been
assured that President Wilson will
act with unexpected vigor when con-
gress meets, and had reason to hope
he will ask congress to grant even
a larger army than was suggested in
Secretary Garrison's recommendation.
It was said today that President Will

While many severe attacks were
made on the President in the begin
ming of the move for greater prepar-
edness, on the ground that he had

conciliation would further his efforts
to achieve these two great ends-pre-
vention of the Balkan states from en-
tering the struggle on the side of the
allies, and termination of the war,
with ermany at the high tide of its
victories.
1t is admitted by official represen-
tatives Of the allies that the Kaiser
has been playing mastery world pol
itics in the last fortnight, and that his
action averting trouble with the Unit
ed States undoubtedly has had its eff
feet in the Balkans.
1t is pointed out that had there been
a rupture Of relations between Berlin
and Washington, German stock would
have gone down and one or more of
the Balkan states probably would have
been encouraged to take the plunge
into the conflict in aid of the allies.
German officials are jubilant over the
outcome of the submarine contro-
versy, for they believe that the for
eign policy of the United States
henceforth will rebound to the advant-
age of the Teutonic empires and to
the disadvantage of the Entente AL.

Germany May Be Galncr.
In the first place, the action of tn,
Kaiser in yielding to the United
States, put it squarely up to Presi
dent WILSON to adopt forceful meas
ures to compel Great Britain to cease
it's violations Of International law in
the maintenance of the starvation
blockade. ! he president committed
himself to furceful policy in regard
to England III his last note to Berlin
If President Wilson carries out his
plcdge nf vigorous action t. compel
England to abide By International law
and succeeds in winning notifications
Of the blockade, Germany will be the
gamer
In the second place, Germany would
have much to gain and nothing to lose
by accepting mediation proffered at
this time. The cagerness of Presi
dent Wilson to be instrumental in
ending the world conflict is wei
known. He has not offered his ser
vices as a mediator since the begin
ming of the war. when all the bellig
orents POLITELY declined his invitation
to settle their differences amicably,
The attitude Of the president since
that time has been that he would not
renew his attempt at mediation unless
specially requested to do so by one or
more of the belligerents. For some
time, however, close associates of the
president have been OF the opinion
that Mr.. Wilson would need little en-
couragement at this time to bring
peace proposals again to the attention
OF the warning nations.
Would Not Surprise Washington.
Not few Washington officials have
remarked that the world need not bt
surprised to learn almost any day tina
Woodrow Wilson has invited the bel
ligerents to assemble at the peace
council board.
This is exactly what German Off
cials are hoping the president will do
They say they do not doubt that Ber
lin would accept proposal for media
tion at this time. They believe tina
the time is ripe for England, FranhC
and Russia to follow suit rather thar

president to attempt the role of med |

To offer mediation is exactly whai
he chiefs of the Democratic party
rope the president will do. They real
re that nothing would boom Wilson
stock like a successful effort
o end the war.
Even an unsuccessful attempt at
mediation would be worth much po-
itically, according to the Democratic
trategists, who believe that the war
'olicies of Wilson will renominate
nd re-elect him hands down.

BAD MEDICINE
Lands Indian Boy in County Jail for
Five Months

In Judge Boney's court on Tuesday
another instance of the debasing effect
of Intoxicating liquor was manifest in
the trial of Seferano Mernejo, young
Indian who has recently been employed
in the beet fields of Star valley.
The Indian was arrested upon three
charges larceny, by lanthus Todd
Great ng disturbance, by Mrs. |. d.
Todd, and assault and battery, by Mrs.
Hazel Weir-and the evidence produced
clearly established his guilt. The only
extenuating circumstance brot out was
that the Indian had been partaking of
firewater in sufficient quantity to
arouse the predatory and abnormal
instincts of naturally peace-loving
redskin.
No questioning could elicit the infor-
nation where he had secured the
whiskey, but it is certain that he'll
have to forego booze for at least five
months, as Judge Boney gave him
thirty days in the county Jail for larceny
and two months each upon the other
two counts.

BEET TOP POISONING
Should BE Guarded Against at This
Season of Year

The time has arrived when veterinarians
expect to be called on to determine the
cause Of death on animals that have been
largely fed upon beet tops.
Every fall many sheep and cattle are
lost, due to a misunderstanding of the
method of feeding tops. Too often cattle
and sheep are required to make prscti-
cally their whole ration of tops, and
many die as result.
There seems to be three explanations.
The first is that the tops get moldy IN the
piles. thus setting up severe digestive
disturbances; another is. all tops contain
oxalic acid to some extent and this may
be poisonous when taken in too large
quantities. The third is that the crown
of the beet may contain substance,
probably sugar, which is Injurious more
especially to sheep. In many cases
where a number Of animals have been
lost the removal to new feed has been
sufficient to effect cure Of the remaining
animals. Beet tops are OF great value
when used as an auxiliary to the ration.
but as an entire ration they become

FIRST SNOWFALL
Section on Saturday Bringing
Relief from Dust
Bright and early last Saturday

Bright and early last Saturday
morning the beautiful snow"
began to fall hereabouts, bringing
an unheralded but most welcome
break to the two months siege
of "moistureless" weather.
For almost the entire day it
continued to settle peacefully
down, until the ground was cover
ed with white blanket to the
depth of almost two inches "on
the level"
Snow invariably cleanses the
air, and it has been demonstrated
that it will cure the chronic
crouch who does not like to live
in climate where it never SHOWS"
and we have a pretty good idea of
what such climate would be
like. Here i'll Rocky Ford,
thru the months of late summer
and fall the sun shines day after
day, almost without cloud.
Glorious weather, to be sure, but
after the glorious weather keeps
up for six, eight or ten weeks, it
is part Of human nature to long
for a change. Things get dry and
dusty, and if the warm, dry wealth
er doesn't get on ones nerves,
something does, and the weather
is always convenient, to receive
the blame for whatever goes
wrong.
Then comes the feecy flakes
and for hours we go around tell
ing what fine thing the snow
is, how it helps business, and kills
the germs, and let's down the
nerves, and lays the dust, and
makes things look mighty good
FOR the farmers.
As is almost invariably the case,
the late SNOW was followed by d
Il eciCIed fall in temperature, reach
ing as low as one degree above
zero on Monday, which was snap
py enough to suit most anyone
and served as stimulus to the
overcoat and other wearing appar-
el business as well as the increase
of coal and winter clothes sales.

Old Association Makes Slight Change
In Directorate at Annual Meeting
Pursuant to call the annual meeting
of the Rocky Ford Melon Growers as
sociation was held in this city on Sat-
urday and goodly number of stock
holders were present.
The chief interest of the meeting
centered about the reports of officers,
which gave more satisfactory show
ing for last seasons cantaloupe busi-
ness than had been expected by many.
1t was shown that good prices had been
received in the early part of the sea-
son, sufficient to offset the loss upon
later shipments and leave fair profit
to some of the early growers.
Tho there were three retiring MEM
bers of the board of directors but one
man Boon Bacon-was retired and an
oldtime member of the board was
elected in the person of j. C. Fleming.
The hold-over members of the board
were G. w. Oliver and H. W. Royal,
and they with Mr. Fleming, /. L..
Weigand and S. S. Bailey compose the
board for the ensuing year.
1t was voted to call meeting of the
growers for Dec. Is. to discuss the
terms of the 1916 contract, and accord
ing to statements made at the annual
meeting it is expected that at least two
satisfactory offers will be made to ham
die the crop.
