THINK WILSON
HAS SOMETHING
UP HIS SLEEVE

London. Dec. 2s.-The London
press took new tack In figuring out
why President Wilson sent his peace
note. The first outburst Of indlgna-
tion having died down somewhat, ed
itorials today began specializing on
the belief that the American presi-
dent has something up his sleeve
Some had the idea that the note
was based on special information
which Wilson had obtained e. to the
exact terms on which Germany Is VII
ling to make and that the note was
not an indication Of anti-ally senti-
ment.
The two statements by Secretary
OF State Lansing were held thorough
ly bewildering but the editorials
agreed they were q side issue.
All newspapers expressed the hope
that the presidents hint that peace
may be "jnst around the corner" /"
might have been based on secret In
formation from Germany.
The Pail Mall Gazette came out
frankly today with the suggestion
that the president withdraw the note.
Whether It was simple oversight
or a case Of over-sublety." the ed
itorial asserted. the president has
gravely blundered and unless the
blunder is revoked 1t win bear evil
and irrevocable fruit"
{ The Globe has this explanation
for the sending Of the note:
Suppose Germany has threaten
ed ruthless ffrightfulness' /. unless
President Wilson made supreme
effort for peace? This would afford
. complete. explanation Of wilson's
note and Secretary IAnsing's indis-
Greet statement. Snch 'frightfulness'
would compel Wilson either to be-
tray his country's honor and violate
his own most solemn pledges, or
else enter the war. Either alterna-
tive is almost equally repulsive-
wherefore the note apparently rep
resents his efforts to evade both. +"

,Thinny. There was reason for Dca-
cons restlessness. More than an hour
ago he should have been on the move,
but here he was still waiting in the
post office shed, and never a sign or
word from his driver. Deacon, you
understand, pulled Uncle Sans mail
ever Rural Free Delivery Route No. 2,
,,Hhvertown P. o. He had pulled it for
shree years, and he was fairly we'll
Tersed in the business. At any rate,
he knew that it was past his starting
time. Long before had the sway
back sorrel on Route No. 1 taken the
road. The pert little bay mare on No.
3 had followed few minutes later.
Yet here was Deacon, with the heavi-
est and longest route of them all, still
standing idly in the shed.
Inside, in the Havertown post office,
we're number of men whose frame of
mind was worse than Deacon's. One
Pine Bluff daily graphic. (Pine Bluff, Ark.) 1893-1942, 1916-12-17

OF them was the postmaster himself.
IN the first place, the simultaneous ar
rival Of three-foot snowfall and the
bulk Of the Christmas mail was bad
enough. Next came the disabling of
one of his best drivers, and the discov-
cry that two substitute carriers were
out Of town. WE'LL the postmaster
said things. Dan Sweeney, driver Of
No. 2 route, was disabled beyond
doubt. There he was sitting on a
pile of mail sacks, his back against a
steam radiator, his face white and
drawn out Of shape by twinges Of
rheumatism. he had dragged himself
down to the Office, but that was all
he could do. Now, although he should
have been sent back to bed, he was
sorting the mail for his route.
1.-THE Christmas mail, too" groaned
Dan. He had conscience, Dan had,
and his heart was in his work.
It was a sight of the great pile Of
packages which made Danny groan
deepest. They were more to him than
simply SO much fourth-class matter,
these struggled boxes and bundles.
They were invested with something
besides the statute-guarded sanctity
of the United States mail, for which
Dan Sweeney had no light respect. He
knew that each one of them carried
not only merchandise but subtle
freightage Of the goodly holiday spirit,
the joyful sentiment of Christmastide.
And to think, just because of this
plaguey rheumatism of his, many Of
them might not be delivered until the
holiday was over with, when they
would come tagging along, as stale as
firecrackers on the 9Th Of July! So
Danny groaned.
'There!" said Danny at last, to the
Office clerk who was to attempt the
task, 'you stow the packages in just
that order and do your best to find
where they go. Old Deacon'll take
you over the route all right if you give
him his head. He knows it like a
book"
!. So the Christmas mail was finally
started out over Route No. 2, Deacon
turned an inquiring eye on the new
man, as much as if to ask what was
the matter with Danny.
