ALEDO AT A GLANCE
Daily Doings in Mercer County's Busy Capital


The local branch of the Horst &
Strieter Ford salesrooms now has a
new manager. The shift in managers
was made yesterday. when Fred
Koepke, past manager of the sales
rooms here, was sent to Davenport to
take charge of the recently establish
ed branch in that city. Fl. A Timms,
who has for the past few months been
associated with the sales department
of the branch here, has been appoint
ed to succeed Mr.. Koepke as manager.
Mr. Koepke has been at the head of
the local salesroom since its establish
ment, and has proven himself a capa-
BILE and agreeable manager. 1t is with
regret that his many friends here see
him leave their midst. Mr.. Timms,
however, is a man of most agreeable
nature and should prove a worthy
successor to his predecessor.

Under the Influence of Germany

Rio Janeiro, June 23.-The crisis
between Mexico and the United
States is being followed by keen in
terest in Brazil and occupies a large
space in the. newspapers. The gen.
eral tone Of the editorial comment
is that President Wilson, while actua-
ted by the best motives, has run
afoul of prepondering elements in
Mexico which are under German in
fluence.
In official circles hope is expressed
that war will be avoided, but it is
fully recognized that the continued
disorders in Mexico must end in
wearying the most sincere we'll wish
er Of the country. There is gen
eral agreement that some end must
be put to the present intolerable sit
uation, so that the pacific develop
ment of the peoples Of America may
