UNCERTAIN PEAcE TONES

London hears that Prince Won Bue-
low, former German chancellor. will
formulate tentative terms of peace to
be submitted to President Wilson and
King Alfonso. which will represent
the German idea of the conditions,
under which the war shall be brought
to an end. The terms are not likely
to be pleasing to England and France.
or even to Russia and Italy. They
will no doubt be based upon German
occupation of Belgium and Poland
and parts of Russian Courland and of
northern France. They will assume
that as matters stand Germany is
victorious and must receive the re-
wards of victory.
Although peace talk is theoretically
forbidden in the press of the Ger
man Empire, editorials deal with the
subject more or less frequently and
the tenor of these is not generally
at all considerate of the Allies. A
special cable to the New York Sun
says that the editorials in the official
press are more insistent than ever
that no peace be thought of until "the
foes of Germany are definitely van
ished." Many papers have declared
that there should be no peace talk
before "Germany's enemies are willing
to concede Germanys supremacy and
the right of Germany to hold the
conquered territory in Belgium and
France, in Poland and the Baltic
provinces" The papers also insist
that France must be deprived of her
African colonies.
1t will be something of a task to
wiring from the nations of the quad
ruble entente consent to any such
terms. They will not agree to the
proposition that German victory is so
complete as the Germans claim. and
they are far from being ready to give
up the fight. Germany will have to
change its temper and soften its lam
gua6e. 1t will have to learn that it's
enemies are not all vipers and imps.
as the German papers call them, and
that the SHINING and the viciousness
are not confined to the ether side.
The German press. especially the in
spired German press. has been un-
compromisingly bitter against the
temporary enemies of the country,
which is in striking contrast with the
open discussion that marks the Brit
ish periodicals. Some of the British
periodicals are bitter enough. certain
ly, but this is offset by the effort of
many others to treat impartially and
candidly all phases Of the war and
all the problems it has raised.

VILLA WITHDRAWING
AFTER FAILURE OF
aqua PR|EIA ATTACK

DOUGLAS, Ariz, Nov. 4.-After a
two-days attack on Aqua Prieta. in
which over 500 of his men were
wounded, General Villa began yester-
day moving his troops westward
along the boundary line to Naco,
where it is said he will await the ar
rival of reinforcements. American
army officers. however, believe that
Villas attack on Aqua Prieta Mon
day and Tuesday nights was in the
nature of try-out, and that he will,
after his army is rested and provi
stoned. push south to Hermosillo and
Magdalena, with view to capturing
Guaymas and Mazatlan.
Harry Jones, a private of the
Eleventh infantry, who was shot in
the stomach Monday night, died of
his wounds today. Six other Ameri-
can soldiers and two civilians were
wounded in the attack on Aqua Prieta.
The failure of Villa to capture Aqua
Prieta at this time is said to have
been due to his lack Of ammunition
and the fact that his men had had
almost nothing to eat for two weeks.
Deserters from the Villa forces say
they have had nothing but raw corn
and wheat for two weeks. Gen. Fun
ston, who is commanding the Ameri-
can troops guarding the boundary,

patton of Nish, with possession OF

rect line through Sofia to the East.
Both southwest and southeast of Bel
grade the advance of the invading
forces is along a hundred-mile front.
which has already reached from twen-
ty-five to forty miles south of the
Danube. The control of the Belgrade
Nish- Saloniki railroad is still held in
alternate sections by the opposing
forces, the Germans commanding the
first fifty miles south of Belgrade,
the Serbians the next hundred and
fifty, the Bulgarians the next hundred
and the French the last fifty miles
to the Greek seaport. This leaves the
Serbians with present control of the
railroad for some distance both north
and south of Nish, but how long
they will be able to hold it is prob
lematical.
In other respects the problem con-
fronting the Allies in the Balkans is
a serious one. The rail communica-
tions just mentioned afford the OBJ
viously preferable line of advance for
the invading forces from the north,
but there are other lines Of commu-
nication with Constantinople, one that
is apparently being Considered being
by way of the Danube. Railways
from several of the river ports in
northwestern Bulgaria would easily
facilitate the movement of troops and
munitions to Turkey. Austro- German
and Bulgarian forces are now report
ed to have effected a juncture, and
free communication by the Danube
may be secured at any moment.
The best way in which this move
can be checkmated, apparently, is by
a great strengthening of the Allied
offensive operations on the Aegean
seacoast of Bulgaria and cutting the
lines of communication at some point
near Adrianople. In attempting this,
however, the Allies can scarcely aban-
don Serbia to her fate. so that we
may expect continued movement
northward from Saloniki, where the
landing Of French and British troops
appears to be still in progress.
To counterbalance the unsatisfac-
tory news from Corhia xua cl,o,,1d no
member that the advantage at pres
ent is with the Allies in the west and
south and that Russia has regained,
to some extent at least, her initiative
in the east. The Teutonic drive into
Serbia has required the services of
large body of troops and has natural
ly lessened the Austro- German power
of aggression elsewhere.

There is still more serious phase
of the matter, affecting not merely
the town of Clifton, but the govern
ment of Arizona. A strong force of
the National Guard is in the strike

weeks. 1t has never been claimed by
the strikers, who take to themselves
credit for whatever degree of order
has been preserved there, that the
National Guard has been of any servz

having contributed in any measure to
good order at Clifton, but they say,
on the other hand that the officers
and members of the guard have
steadily fraternized with the strikers

has been an encouragement of the
strike. We do not know that it is

with power by the governor to pre-
vent such outrages upon the rights

that officers and men may resume

luckless one compelled to walk across

ANNUAL MEETING
OF AMERICAN
PLOWMEN
National Farmers Union Renders IN
selfish Service to Agriculture.
BY Peter Radford.

The National Farmers Union will
hold its annual convention In Lincoln
Nebraska, on September seventh, and
will round out the eleventh year Of
its activities in the interest Of the
American plowman. When that con-
vention is called to order every farm
er in America should pause and bow
his head In honor of the men gath.
cred there to render a patriotic and
unselfish service to agriculture. That
organization, born in the cotton fields
Of Texas, has grown until geograph-
ically 1t covers almost the whole Of
the United States and economically
II deals with every question in which
the welfare of the men who bare
their backs to the summer sun are
involved. 1t has battled for q better
marketing system, rural credits, cheap
money, diversifcation, scientific pro-
duction, agricultural legislation and
has carried on its work of education
and cooperation in season and out.
The Farmers Educational and Co.
operative Union Of America brings
the question OF organization squarely
before every farmer in this nation.
Without organization the farmers can
neither help themselves nor be helped
by others and through organization
and systematic effort all things are
possible.
The farmers of the United States
contribute more and get less from
government than any other class Of
business. They have better securities
and pay a higher rate Of interest
than any other line of industry. They
market more products and have less
20 say in fixing the price than any
other business and they get more
political buncombe and less construc-
tive legislation than any other class
Of people. The farmers can only &C.
Quire such influence in business, in
government and in economics as will
enable them to share equitably the
fruits Of their labor through organiza.
ticn and every farmer on American
soil who desires to help himself and
his fellow plowmen should rally
around the Union.

HOMES OF THE STRAWBERRY
Eight Districts Of the Country In
Which the Succulent Fruit 10
an Important Crop.

A survey of the production and mar
keting of strawberries In the United
States made by the department of ag-
riculture indicates that the eight most
important commercial strawberry dis
tricts are central California, Tennes-
see, Maryland. Delaware. southern
Louisiana, North and South Carolina,
Virginia and the Ozarks.
Great quantities Of strawberries, the
report says, are also grown IN the
North in small patches and shipped
to market by trolley, express or in the
producers own wagon.
The first strawberries of the year
come from central Florida, the move
ment beginning in December and con-
tlnuing until the end of March. By
the first of March the first strawber-
ries from southern Texas and south
ern California find their way to the
market. About the middle Of March
the Louisiana crop begins to move,
continuing about two months or until
the middle Of May.
By that time the season of carload
shipments is at its height. The greater

GOT HIS SPENDING MONEY"
Humorous Incident In the Early Ca
reer Of the Late Comedian, Sol
Smith Russell.

When q boy Sol Smith Russell, who
later rose to eminence as a comedian
and to high material fortune through
q combination of large earnings and
ingenious frugality. was employed as
a member Of the celebrated Peak
Family of Bell Ringers He was billed
as Master Solly. His turn was bal
lad singing, and It was stipulated that
he was to receive no compensation
other than board and lodging until ex'
perience should make him more al
flrmatively valuable to the organiza-
ton.
When the second season was nearly
at an end Master Solly suddenly was
struck with an idea that he ought to
have some kind of remuneration for
his work, since he was featured" and
really the best drawing card Peak
could boast. So. plucking up courage,
he accosted Peak in these words:
"Mr. Peak, l have been with you
nearly two years and in all that time
you have paid me nothing for my
work. ! don't ask for much, but you
can afford to give me little spending
money every week-just enough to get
along on"
Bill looked at him in sorrow, not to
say amazement. "How much do you
want, Solly?" he managed to gasp.
"Oh, l guess about five dollars a
week."
The demand almost sent Peak into
commissions; but he rallied. and in a
tone OF melancholy resignation, he
said:
Every well, Solly. I am your friend.
I will give you the five dollars; but for
Gods sake don't tell my wife!"
