AID FOR THE JEWS

Pity for the down trodden and suf-
fering Jews of Europe is observed
everywhere in this country, and there
is promise that the noble patience OF
the Russian and German Jew in en-
during war horrors will rid the Amer
leans mind of the ignoble prejudice
against that honorable race.

The dlSt1n- IVY l. Lee
gushing fact about the system of

i been developed in this country is
that it is INDEFINITE, INCON-

TABLISHED ON RECOGNIZED

that there is in it nothing certain
but uncertainty" The railroads
have no standards as to what the

Capital Punishment Necessary.

AT times you will hear men and
women say they don't approve of
capital punishment for msrderers.
Many people who believe that way
are no doubt honest and sincere in
their opinion. But to our way of
thinking the man or men, who will
commit murder in the heat of pas
sion, is entitled to some sympathy,
but cold blooded murderer should
never be given spark of sympa-
thy. Just think of the horrible
murder that was committed near
Vinton few days ago. A good
citizen was murdered aud then his
body consumed by fire. The vii
lain killed the man first and then
set fire to the building in which he
was in and the body was cremated.
The guilty party should be put to
ath.-Ninton Booster.

High Water.

The water is rising rapidly and
the people living in the low sec
tons are daily seeing their lands
going under water, and some of
them will soon have to move away
if it continues a few days more.
The Morning Glory truck farm
is nearly all under water, the
draining pump not being large
enough to remove rapidly the see
page water that goes through the
levee and the large amount of wa
ter put on the place by the heavy
rains. The crops on that place
will probably be total loss.

A MUNICIPAL DEATH.

A city that never has anything
to do in public way. is on the
road to the cemetery. Any person
who will do nothing for his town
is helping to dig the grave. A man
that curses the town furnishes the
coffin. The man who is so selfish
as to have not time from his bust
ness to give to city affairs, is max
ing the shroud. The man who do
not advertise is driving the hearse.
The man who is always pulling
back from public enterprise throws
bouquets on the grave. The man
who is so stingy as to be bowling
hard times, breaches the funeral
sings the doxology, and thus the
town lies buried from all sorrows
and care. - Alexandria Democrat

Washington, D. c., Dec. 2s.-That the
United States intends to sit in at the
worlds peace conference whenever that
may be held, is the outstanding signifi-
canoe of President wilson's address to
the powers.
This address is an anomaly in the Dip
lomatic world It is neither official nor
unofficial 1t is like a good many other
things in this world war situation; it
established a new precedent.
Mediation used to be the method by
which warning powers got together. A
medium through which the warning pow
ers would match up their ideas as to
settlement. This is what took place when
Roosevelt got the Russian and Japanese
ambassadors together as a preliminary
worked out the details of the peace be-
tween these nations.
Theoretically ambassadors of warning
nations do not speak to each other and
theoretically there is no communication
between warning nations. That tradi-
ton and make-believe have broken down.
Germany smashed it the other day by
dealing directly with her enemies.
The German offer Of peace was as I'M
usual in the diplomatic world as a flash
Of lightning out of a summer sky. Such
| a thing never had been before 1t was
a recognition that the age Of sailing yes
sells and dispatch boxes ard of commu-
/ nication by written document only had
| passed and that submarine cables

PRESIDENT Gets
MANY MESSAGES
ON PEACE TALK
BIZ AssocrArnr PRESS.

The Hague, Dec. 2S-Via London.
"A flood Of cabIegrams is being sent
to President Wilson by trade unions,
social welfare societies, religious bod
les Of all denominations and other
organizations wishing him success in
what they regard as his efforts to
bring about peace. The Dutch social
list party sent the following message
to the president today:
'"The Dutch socialist party supports
in the strongest way your initiative IN
favor of peace and appeals to the bel
ligerent powers to accept your pro-
posal."
The newspapers in voluminous arti-
cles, regard the situation rather hope
fully with the exception Of the anti
German TELEGRAPH which favors a
war t. a finish and sneers at Ger
many's answer, using the words "if
it can be called an answer" The
TELEGRAPH says that the central pow
ers are grateful to President Wilson
which SIS comprehensive inasmuch
as their idea of durable peace is to
arrange things so as to avoid having
to give up the territory they have
grasped."
The general feeling is perhaps best
expressed by the pacifist NEWS Van
den Dag, which says:
mo one will be under any illusion
about a speedy meeting of peace del
egates at the Hague or elsewhere TO
begin discussions although the hope
remains that this mountain of talk
will bring forth more than mouse
and that from low on the voice of
peace will never more be stillcd."
The paser speculates as to whether
the British imperial conference may
possibly purposeIy have been called
for the end Of February because the
entente viii then have their terms
ready.
The CalYinist organ Nederlandel
calls attention to what it terms the
striking difference between the tone
Of Germaay's reply to President vii
son as compared with previous Ger
man notes to America. This change
the Nederlander says, gives the i'm
preston that Germany not only de
sires peace but also wishes to avois
giving offense to America. The Ro
man Catholic Tijd understands fror
a diplomatic source that diplomat
and parliamentary circles at tn
Hague are fairly optimistic regardin
peace prospects. There is talk @
preliminary non-official meetings Q
delegates at the Hague, but the Til
says that the wish in this case
probably father to the thought, al
though Holland, owing to her gee
graphic position, is doubtless bes
suited for preliminary negotiations.

son and Secretary Lansing have
adopted a policy of absolute silence
regarding the peace negotiations. A
decision that they consider all future
developments as confidential came
after the arrival of the official texts

to the presidents note, and it is
learned that the Teutonic powers are
willing to permit confidential ex-
change of tentative terms, if it be-
came necessary to do so. The Off
cial attitude is construed in many
quarters as indicating that secret ex-
changes are expected to follow and
