 offensive by the forces of Grown
 Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria, attacked
 successfully and pushed forward from
 300 to 500 yards on a front of 5000
 yards. The advance was made be-
 tween Le Sars and the Schwaben re- doubt, which was the scene of earlier attack by the Germans General
 Haig's men captured the Stuff and Re gina trenches, advanced posts north and northeast of the SchWaben re- doubt, and several hundred prisoners.
 The Germans also attacked strongly
 the French positions at Sally -SaiIlisel i on the Bapaume- Peronne road, as well as positions between Biaches and La
 Maisonnette. near Peronne The at tackers were repulsed generally, but Paris admits they gained a footing north of Blaise wood The French succeeded in an attack further south and gained possession of a wood north Of Chaulnes
 Striking the Prussian and Rumanian
 line in Dobrudja, Field Marshal v6n l Mackensen has renewed successfully , his offensive toward the Constance l Tchenaveda railroad. Attacking along the forty mile front, the forces of the central powers have made good pro- gress almost everywhere.

Cy0wd Strong For Teddy
 From StQYt to the Finish

To use the language of "our dis visitor it was a bully crowd. There were eight thousand of them-and more, too, o,-cheering and yelling frantically, waving American flags and shouting Justify, Go get 'em, Teddy!' And he went and got 'em." He burned em, sizzled em, blistered 'em, and literally 'done 'em up brown"
 Never before has there been such a crowd gathered together in Arizona to hear political oration. Never before has there been such a warm, responsive audience. And certainty there never has been crowd as- sembled in tris city that displayed such unbounded enthusiasm.
 Grizzled veterans of the civil war, Rough Riders who charged up San Juan hill behind Colonel Roosevelt, widows of American men who were murdered in Mexico, farmers. cattle men. miners. and, in fact. people from every walk in life, were in the great, enthusiastic audience.
 Nearly 5000 chairs and benches had been arranged for the crowd. but these were too few More than 5000

As Colonel Roosevelt finished his zona again and laid stress on the fact that he had raised part of his regi- ment of Rough Riders here. He also recalled the fact that he had ap- pointed Judge Joseph H. Kibbey to be governor of the territory. At the mention of Judge Kibbey's name. the crowd went wild again And when the Colonel named the Judge as among his friends. there was another demon stration
 He said that recalling Judge Kib- bey's name, reminded him of the fight for statehood. in which Coz. Kibbey was a prominent combatant. The Col onel related how at the stime. Judge Kibbey was governor. there were four territories ready to come into Inc

New Mexico and Arizona There was considerable opposition to the four coming in, and the Colonel stated that he was for combining Indian Territory and Oklahoma as one state and New Mexico and Arizona as another. But. the Colonel made it clear that Gov. Kibbey and Dwight F. Heard would not have 1t that way At the mention of the fight put up by Arizona's best loved governor there was another derhonstration The Colonel admitted that if it had not been for Gov Kib- bey Arizona and New Mexico might have entered the slnion as one state.

that the premier make his statement
next Tuesday, when Mr.. Asquith

absence of illness of Premier Lloyd

PERSHING IS To

New Provisional Governor of
Chihuahua State Issues
Proclamation Regarding
Presence of Americans,

| El paso, Tex, Dec. l2.--Gen Ar
nulfo Gonzalez, provisional governor
! of Chihuahua, declared in his first
/ proclamation to the people after the
re-occupation of the city by Carranza
troops that he would soon be ready to
join the first chief in forcing the re-
tiroment of the American punitive eX-
Ipediton.
An original copy Of the printed
manifesto, which bears the date Of
December 6, was brought here today
from Chihuahua by a refugee.
General Gonzalez began his procla-
nation by saying that the people
have the right to know the line Of ac-
ton their governors intend TO pursue
while in office. He continued:
Governors Proclamation.
"The state Of Chihuahua, In which
the spark of revolution found so pro-
pitious "a field, and which has always
been SO Jealous a defender of the dig

great an energy in repulsing any tres
pass on its rights-today this state
must lament the disgrace OF seeing
its sacred soil desecrated by the
proud Saxon troops, a misfortune that
the bandit villa caused with his deeds
at Columbus. As these deeds not only
iniure the sovereignty Of the state, but
also Of the country. IL is to the cen.

The patriotic attitude Of the first
chief in the face of this lamentable
incident is well known to all MeNi-
cans. His forces have not single
moment ceased to work toward "a SO

ways, preserving national pride and
autonomy To support this attitude
in our own sphere Of action will be

concern and the Berlin government Is
UNDERSTOOD TO he ready to rclinquish
the claim of kiau- Chan.
Would Protect Turkey,
The security Of Turkey in possession
of Constautinople would probably be
insisted upon by the central powers,
as well as the restoration OF Albania.
The esta blishmcnt Of independent
kingdoms in Lithuuuta and Poland
would be one Of the factors In the
German proposal, although that part
of Poland possessed by Germany at
the outbreak of the war would not be
included.
What adjustment would be made to
cover the Trevino region between
Austria and Italy or any provision
affecting Egypt the Suez canal
Mesopotamia, or the gateways Of con-
troll to the Indian empire, are not
made clear
The Balkan situation Is considered
so delicate it would have to be uu-
tangled in the peace conference.
The whole German view Of the
peace move is that u is a step toward
discussion Of peace terms, which
ought to show some definite progress
early in January.
Bcrnstorff Is Pleased.
There Is said to be no possibility
of peace conference being held in
the United states. Berne and The
Hague are mentioned as most likely
places, and 1t Is not doubted that
Count Won Bernstorff, the German
ambassador here would go as one OF
his country's representatives, His at
titude was expressed tonight in the
following statement
Il am, of course, extremely graft

if il does not lead to peace, It offers
proof that Germany wants peace, even
after q victorious campaign, and does
not desire the responsibility for fur
ther suffering Of mankind, loss Of life
and property Germany wants peace
and does not desire conquest. / can
not say anything about the terms"
Reasons for Movement
Germany, it is said here, was moved
to bring out the peace proposals al
this time, principally because she had
given up hope that President Wilson
would make a move. Another con.
trolling factor was the recent crisis ir

TEXT or NOTE SENT
TO HOSTILE GOVERNMENTS

Berlin. Dec. 12,-Following Is the
text Of the note addressed by Germany
and her allies to the hostile gov
ernments:
1.-THE most terrific war ever expert
cnCod In history has been raging for
the last two years and a half over a
large part Of the world--a catastrophe
which thousands Of years OF common
civilization was unable 10 present, and
which Injuries the most precious
achievements of humanity our aims
are not to shatter nor annihllate our
advcrsaries, In spite Of our conscious
ness Of our military and economic
strength and our readiness to continue
the war (Which has been forced upon
us) until the bitter end If necessary,
at the same time prompted by the
desire to avoid further bloodshed and
make an end 10 the atrocities OF war,
the four allied powers propose TO enter
forthwith into peace negotiations.
"Thc propositions which they bring
forward for such negotiations and
which have for their object guaran-
toe Of the existence OF the honor and
liberty Of evolution for their nations
are. according to their firm belief, an
appropriate basis for the establish
ment of q lasting peace.
"The four allied powers have been
obliged to take up arms to defend the
justice and the liberty of national evo-
luton. The glorious deeds OF our
armies have in no way altered their
purpose We always maintained the
firm belief that our own righta and

of the nation working for the COM
mon aim.
"The empire Is not q besieged for
tress as our adversaries imagined, but
one gigantic and firmly disciplined
camp with lnexhaustlble resources.
That Is the German empire which Ia
firmly and faithfully united with its
brothers in arms, who have been test

"On August l. 1914. The emperor
had personally to take the gravest
decision which ever fen to the lot OF
ia German-tho order for mobilization,
which he was compelled to give as a
result of the Russian mobilization.
! During these long and earnest years
OF the war the emperor has been
moved by single thought How
peace could be restored TO safeguard
Germany after this struggle in which
she has fought VIGOROUSLY.
Nobody can testify better to this
than I, who bear the responsibility for
IAN actions Of the government In a
deep moral and religious sense of
duty this nation, beyond II, towards
humanity, the emperor now considers
that the moment has come for off
cial action towards peace.

tives Of those powers which are

that it should be met with a statement
of the terms on which the entente
allies are willing to effect a peace,
leaving it to the central powers to ac-
cept or reject it.
The Morning Post argues that the
opening of negotiations would imply
an armistice in which Germany would
obviously occupy the predominant
position, and that the question would
be whether the entente allies were
prepared to accept terms dictated by
Germany. 1t adds that to grant an
armistice would be to abandon the
hope of ever gaining the power to
force Germany to submission.
Germany says the Morning Post,
knows she has reached her zenith
and henceforth must decline. Moth
ing, therefore, will better serve her
purpose than an armistice."
Impudent Peace Trick.
The Daily Mail describes the offer
of the central powers as "an impudent
old peace trick which is becoming as
hackneyed as the conjuring of rabbits
out of hat" 1t adds that Dr. Won
Bethmann- Hollweg is no more entitled
to the courtesy of a reply than if he
were an armed burglar in private
house.
The allies will not be caught in
this white whiskered device the
Daily Mail adds. They know that
no peace with nation of tigers and
murderers and statesmen who regard
all treaties as scraps of paper would
be worth the paper and ink. 1t is
better and cheaper far to fight on"
The Daily News, while urging the
people not to pay too much attention
20 the "chancellor's arrogant invita-
tion," says the entente allies must not
commit the fatal blunder of refusing
to enter into NEGOTIATIONS because the
Teutons are evidently playing an as
tute diplomatic game.
The Chronicle says:
Germany can have peace amy day
on our terms If she has any doubt
as to those terms she can always in
quire of us. We have always urged
the disarmament of the Prussian mill
itary machine and the surrender or
destruction Of its navy and the whole
of its artillery"
