The dispatches from the east yester-
day stated that a huge copper mer-
ger is under way that will include
nearly all the larger copper producing
companies outside of the Anaconda

The Chicago Tribune says that me-
sotiations are In progress for giant

NO MANS LAND.
There Are Several Such Tracts Guar.
anteed by Treaties.


philadelphia North American)
The term No Mans Land" has
sprung into prominence again since
the European war. It MEANS of
course, the dead ground between any
two lines of advanced trenches. There
is, however another kind of no mans
land, delimited and guaranteed by
treaties. One of these curious strips
of neutral territory exists between the
United States and Mexico. Although
only so feet wide, it is 700 miles in
length. extending from Ell Paso, in
Texas, westward to the Pacific ocean.
Another singular strip of no mans
land stretches across the isthmus that
connects the rock of Gibraltar with
Spain. 1t is about half mile wide,
where British and Spanish sentries
face one another, day and night, year
in and year out, from opposite sides.
The territory in between these two
chains of sentinels belongs neither to
Britain nor to Spain.
Altogether there are in the world
about so of these neutral zones, vary
ing in width from a few yards to as
many miles.

Senator Borah VIII Urge Passage of
Amendment Making the Nation Dry

Iallow 1t to remain wet. The people
residing in the District of Columbia
have nothing to say about the matter,
as congress makes all their laws, and
makes many of them without consult
ing those most affected.
At the last session, the committee
on District of Columbia reported fav-
orably the Sheppard bill which seeks
TO make the district dry, and that bill
IS now on the senate calendar, having
been carried over from the last ses-
sion. II can therefore be taken up at
any time q majority of the senate
gives Its consent and because of the
advantageous position of this measure
Is expected that the first effective
fight will be that on the bill to make
he national capital dry"
Needs Only Majority.
1t may be that by legislative trick
cry In one house of congress, or In
both, that the prohibition question
nay be shelved during the short ses-
sion, but 1t will not be shelved until
after Senators Jones and Borah have
made the best fight of which they are
capable, and If sidetracked, it will be
by indirect, rather than by direct
means. The Sheppard bill, diff
ferlng from the resolution for which
Senator Borah intends to fight, can be
passed by majority vote, and 1t is
sure to pass If II Is allowed to come
to vote. But If 1t passes the senate,
t must be fought through the com
nittee of the house, and there, If dan
ger threatens. the opposition will con-
centrate IT'S efforts to beat the meas
ure,
This activity In the cause of prohi-
btion by two republican senators
from the northwest will rather take
he wind out of the sails of Mr.. Bryan
who is seeking to make more political
capital for himself as an advocate of
the dry" cause, and Mr. Bryan Is
somewhat handicapped because he
,an do nothing but talk, while Senator
Borah and Jones are in a position
either to force action. or to force the
opponents of prohibition to block their
Efforts by legislative trickery. Mr..
Bryan, like the two senators, is far
sighted enough to see that national
prohibition is coming, but unfortun-
ately for him. he is not now in a po-
ition where he can materially hasten

POLICY OF j. s.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-F'ree talk
in congress of munitions embargo
seriously is embarrassing the foreign
relations of the United States, Sec
rotary of State Lansing has made
plain in private conversations with the
congressional leaders
Despite this fact the sentiment for
such legislation is on the increase and
so soon as President Wilson returns
to this city he will be asked to take
steps to check the discussion and
block any such plan
The method under consideration
which is expected to be adopted will
be for Secretary Lansing officially to
inform the foreign relations commit
tees of the senate and the house that
the subject is filed with dynamite.
He probably will explain that the
adoption of embargo legislation and
it's enforcement at this time, revers,
ing the entire policy of the United
States. would be accepted by the en-.

doubling that the man would keeI

door. In a moment the man had
sprung out and vanished down the
road.
The next day Polly spent all the
morning watching the road. but not a
sign of anyone came in sight. But as
she sat at dinner there was the clat
ter of hoofs, jingling of chains and the
cracking of wagon wheels out in the
yard. Polly few to the door.
There at the front gate was a big
suffers wagon, drawn by two stout
mules, and perched on the seat was
Polly's beaming Yankee man. In a
trice he leaped down and handed out
three big boxes. Polly did not give
him a second glance, but raised the
lids at once. Then she clapped her
hands with delight, for there in the
first box was big frosted cake with
ten candles stuck in its sides; in the
other box were oranges and bananas
and in the third candy and raisins, SUI

While many of the administration
officials accept the fact that a great
deal of the embargo discussion is en-
tirely for home consumption" and
realize that the men who openly advo-
cate such action would hardly vote in
favor of it if given opportunity, it is
known that the talk is taken at its
face value when cabled to London,
Paris and Petrograd. And the enc
mics of the United States in those cap
itals are declared to be using speeches
