TO BRASS TACKS IN MEXICO
Plain and Forcible Language is to
be Used by American Com
missioners to Hasten a
Decision,

Washington, Nov. 1S.-Within
the next few days the United
States government representa-
tives will talk plainly and forci-
bly, to the Mexican members OF
the Atlantic City commission i'll
an effort to force a satisfactory
settlement in the conference
which has now been on three
months.
This talk will doubtless be
framed on President Wilson S
own views, as Secretary Lane,
commission chairWan plans to
see him over Sunday.
The patience of the American
group has been sorely taxed by
delays, the responsibility for
which is placed upon the Mexican
chairman, Luis Cabrera. The lat
tcr's opposition to a tentative
peace plan is seriously delaying
settlement satisfactory to all
his colleagues.
For this reason, the Americans
will use plain language. This
method in the past has proven ef-
ficacious and probably will be
successful this time, it is believed
here
Tire administration is far from
convinced that a permanent dead
leels exists and in fact, is laying
plans for early relief of the Dor
der patrol, it was learned today.
The situation is such, though,
that the administration is eager
to come to terms soon. The pos
sibility of failure Of the confer
cnce has never been overlooked
and military plans have been
made accordingly, but on the
whole, administration men be-
lieve that the conference will be
forced into a satisfactory conclu-
sion.

Major Issues q Proclamation.

jefferson City, Nov. 1s.-Gov
crnor Major issued his last
Thanksgiving proclamation to-
day. 1t says, in part:
"When we behold the brilliant
achievements of the Republic, the
most splendid of all the past, set
in peace, then, what can keep AN
American heart from thanking
God FOR the blessings we enjoy.
The rumble of wheels of COM
merce has not been supplanted by
the rumble of the wheels Of can
non, the great army of toilcrs has
not become an army of marching
soldiers and happiness dwells at
the fireside of millions of homes.
We can today thank the Master,
as state and Nation, as we have
never done before. Peace. plenty
and prosperity and all that lifts
us up as a state and nation are
ours
Missouri has given her full
dividend of all things good and
has advanced in all the ways
which make it first among the
commonwealth of the Republic.
Every department of religious
and social life has felt the impress
for good and has progressed in an
exceptionable degree. For all
these things in the state and Ma
lion let us give thanks to the God
who presides over the destinics of
men.

You can verify Butler endorse
ment.
Read this:
M. T. Duncan, 62O w. Pine St.
Butler, says: "F'or several years
l had been having a bad time, ow-
ing to kidney complaint. The
kidney secretions were unnatur-
al and I had severe pains in my
side and across my kidneys. l
used Doan's Kidney Pills, pro-
cured at Clay's Drug Store, and
they gave me more relief than
any other medicine I had ever
used" Statement given Sep
TENDER IL, 1917
On April %, 1916, Mr.. Duncan
said: 81 have had no need Of
Doan's Kidney Pills for some
time. I still recommend them as
a reliable kidney medicine to any,
one who needs them"

Food Dictator for Hungary.

Budapest. Hungary, Nov. IS
The appointment is announced of
Baron kuerthy to the newly ere
atcd position of food dictator for
Hungary. The new official,
whose post is regarded as Of al
most equal Importance to that of
a cabinet minister, is practically
unknown in the capital. He has
held for some time past the po-
Sition of governor Of a northern
province where his work won the
admiration of Count Tisza.

Berlin Has 80, 1858 Empty
Houses.

Berlin, Nov. 18.-For every
thousand houses, with or without
attached stores, in Berlin no less
than sixty-six stand empty as a
result of the war according to
statistics compiled by the stats
teal bureau of Greater Berlin
The majority lie in the north, east
and south sections of Berlin
where the poorer portion of the
population lives. The total num-

EUROPE READY FOR PEACE
Plans Under Way to Ask for
Protocol to Discuss Peace.

Berlin, Nov. 1S.-EuropeaIl
neutrals and the United States
are ready to call for peace.
Plans almost are completed, ac-
cordmg to scmi-official reports
from Switzerland. Now the ma
tionS await only the suspicious
moment when they will impor-
tune the warning nations for Il
truce, during which Il peace pact
may be framed.
Berlin believes the .protocol
will be signed immediately upon
the ask mg Newspapers here are
drvoiing columns to the discus
sion. The present is declared the
brightest peace prospect since the
continent famed with war more
than two years ago.
The Koelnischc Xcitung, IA semi
official organ, announces that
the plans of the ncutrals have as
sumed definite shape and the
Joint cali of the neutrals will be
made soon. The first conference,
it is declared, will be in the ma
turc of parley to which all ma
tons will be asked to send dele
gates.
Then, when the belligcrents
have sounded the proposals of the
others. they will return and take
up privately with their govern
ments the proposed conditions.
The conference may be held even
without an armistice being
framed, it is said.
ut is not impossible that neu
trail nations may be considering
such a STEP" the government an.
nounced officially. 1t refused to
deny the story in the Koelnische
Xritung.
The peace talk, which is spread
ing throughout all Europe with
almost the same rapidity of the
war clouds. was given impetus to-
day when it was learned that
President Wilson again would Of
fer his services as go-betwcen for
the warning factions. 1t was said
he would so declare in his mes
sage to congress, which convenes
in December.
Austrian circles especially are
interested in the peace proposals.
Recently it was set forth that
talk of annexation OF Belgium
had been hushed by Germany and
the plans of the allies for land
aggrandizcmcnt have been
flushed.
AS the war is continuing now,
the nations are said to be fighting
for determination of each other
England to "cruSh German mill
tarism, " and Germany to "break
power" No thought,
it is being pointed out, is being
given to the somewhat rloudcd is
sues which were set forth at the
outset of the war.

He Was a Runner.

4 man named Runner was Il
candidate for sheriff of Henry
county on the democratic ticket
at the recent election and he JUS
tilted his cognomen by running
way ahead of his ticket. You
couldn't beat man with a name
like that.
