MASS MEETING TO-
 NIGHT COURT HOUSE
Open Air Concert By Old Pres cott Concert Band-NoW, Not Whether we Want Free Fair, But Shall we Have Ii.

The mass meeting at the court house tonight to formulate plans for having a free Nevada county fair has been thoroughly advertised and prac- tically all the business men have eX- pressed themselves as being heartily in favor of it. The attendance tonight will determine whether we really want one or if we are merely in favor of it..
 The Prescott Concert Band has kindly consented to play number of selections on the streets and at the court house, and an effort is being made to get Prof. Dwight Blake to come up from Hope and be with us tonight but no word had been received from him up to time of going to press. But all the band boys who have been on the border will be with us and will play in the band.
 We can't impress upon the people the full meaning of free county fair, but if you will come to the meeting to- night at 2 o'clock the matter will be thoroughly explained and the proposi- tion put up to the people for them to say. You will not be asked to con tribute to the fair tonight but the plans will be made, so for the sake of Prescott and Nevada county, come to- night and bring the whole family.

LANSING MAY BE
 FRAMING DOCUMENT
Perhaps for Use of Wilson Be- fore COngress-POssibly for Austria a-Hungary-HOlland to Make Protest.

Washington, Feb. 25.-Pending the return of Secretary Lansing from White Sulphur Springs, W. Va, the general belief is that no new move will be made by the government in the German crisis. In diplomatic quarters the opinion is almost univer- sal that the secretary is devoting what has been officially described as a short vacation, to important work. Some think he is framing a document for the use of President Wilson in connec- ton with his address to Congress. Others think he is preparing for what is regarded as the inevitable break with Austria-Hungary.
 The president saw no callers today and left the White House only for an automobile ride with Mrs. Wilson. Officials continued to profess ignor- ance on the question of whether the president will go to the capitol to ask additional authority from Congress.
 Official information about the re- lease of the American prisoners on the Yarrowdale still is lacking It has been nearly two months since these 72 seamen were taken into Germany. Their release was reported in press dispatches several days ago, but sev- eral inquiries to the Spanish ambas- sador at Berlin have failed to bring official encouragement of it.
 A dispatch from London today to the State Department said two Ameri- can sailors. Edward Ellis and John Handey, were in the crew of the British sailing ship Centurion, sunk by a submarine February 19, after being warned. The crew took to the boats and was rescued, after 19 hours at sea. As the ship was warned and no lives were lost, no great importance is attached to the incident.
 Holland Not Ready to Break
 Despite the belief here that the severance of diplomatic relations be- tween Germany and Holland has been brought a step nearer by recent whole sale destruction of Dutch shipping. it is considered very certain that, for the present, at least, the Netherlands government will not go further than to make a vigorous protest, probably warning the Berlin government and informing it that it will be held res ponsible for the monetary loss in volved. Holland is represented as feeling that the recent losses, while being tremendous, cannot compare with the damages that would be wrought should relations be severed or hostilities commenced.
 No orders have been given to halt Dutch ships chartered to carry grain to Holland. Five vessels carrying grain for the government now are, or soon will be, in Halifax for inspection by British naval authorities. These vessels will 70 from Halifax to a Nor wegian port, where their commanders will await instructions The Neither lnads government is endeavoring to arrange with the German and British authorities for route the ships may safely take from the Norwegian port to Holland.

It is Of interest to note that, with
two exceptions, no State in the Union
has ever before in past year pro-
duced so much of agricultural wealth
as has Georgia this year 1916 was
a year of high prices for agricultural
products, and Georgia's production
was valued at nearly $350,O00,00O.
Iowa's production was valued at
about $515, 100000 and that of Tex
as at about $3.50, 100000. Only
these two states had ever produced

year exceeding $500,000,000.

many made use of it.
We regret that Mrs. Carter has
sold the Journal and given up her
work on account of her health. Our
Editors have kept the Journal up to a
high standard, so clean that it could
be read in the home without a blush
of shame. Our Editors had their con-
victions but all the editorials and
news reports have been fair and con-
servative, a free discussion has been
allowed their readers on subjects of
importance. They have given us
correspondents our say. My asso-
citation with the Editors has been
pleasant, they have been considerate
and kind. We appreciate the words
of cordial good will from our Edi-
tress and extend the same courtesy,
wishing she may be fully restored to
health and vigor that she may con-
tinue her chosen life work and we
may read again from her brilliant
pen. We expect to hear of Joe writ
ing editorials for some of the big
dailies. Success and good will to
our retiring Editors.
We feel sure our incoming Edi-
torial staff will keep the Journal up
to that same high standard and will
strive to make it more efficient. We
welcome all efforts and enterprises
that are striving to make us a big
ger, better and greater county. Long
live the Journal and continue this
noble work. If we don't get fired.
we'll still give the happenings, doings
and thinkings from these parts.
