ASSOCIATED press)

Berlin, Jan. 3.-The reply OF the IN.
tente to the peace proposals Of the
Central powers is discussed at great
length this morning by the newspa-
pers. which base their remarks on tho
unofficial press version Of the noto
received here from French sources.
The newspapers are unanimous In
saying the answer Of the Entente was
only what was to be expected In view
of the utterances of statesmen of the
hostile nation. .,.-.' ~ ..
To Infsame People.
The opinion was expressed that tho
note was addressed less to the Central
powers than to the people of the In.
tente nations and to neutrals, hence
the strong declamatory language cal
culated, according to the German
opinion, further to inflame passions
against the Teutonic allies. In .parti.
cular, it is declared, the section ~.
voted to Belgium was intended for
the American people. ... - t,t@'$' -. .F'' >.
Sword is Only Anssver.
In general, the answer is regarded
as the stitfest and most brusque pos
siblo and. to be- cauched Il insulting
and calumniating terms, never before
seen in an international " document.
All the newspapers agree that the
only answer the Central powers can
give is with the sword; that the war
must be continued until the Allies

pected of the murder of Maize Colbert,

payne Charlie" He was ready

London, Jan. 3.-Authentic informa'
ton gathered by the United Press to-
day was that internal conditions in
the Central powers countries had Z
great deal to do with the Allies turn
ing an almost deaf ear to peace sug-
gestions. 1t is thought that this con-
dition will be strongly reflected in tho
answer to President Wilson's note.
The dispatch Of the note is imminent.
The Allies are daily more convinced
that the German peace suggestions
we're put forward in the spirit Of des'
peration. Hence, came the determin'
ed rejection. },. S.ss!.E5. a,4 i&gs

GOVERNOR IS

GUARD BURNQUIST.

| established in the upper and
lower house Of the Minnesota leg
jsIature during the Inauguration
Of Governor }. A. A. 6urnquist.
The guard was established appar-
emily on reports from 'Bemidji
that I. W. w. agitators there
planned to leave for St. Paul.
St.. Paul, Minn., Jan. 3-Joseph A
a: :Burnquist was today inauguratet
as governor of Minnesota at join
session of the Minnesota house ant
senate this afternoon. Burnquist wa!
elected last fall with a plurality o
$4,000 on the Republican ticket This
is twice the plurality ever given any
candidate for governor in the state
and over ISL 900 ahead of that giver
Charles Evans Hughes, Republican
candidate for president, in Minnesota
BurnQuist, as lieutenant governor
succeeded Winfield Scott Hammond
who dropped dead in Louisiana, on
December 30, 1915.
Ever since he established a law
practice in St. Paul, Mr.. Burnquist has
been in politics. In 1906 he was an
unsuccessful candidate for state SEN
ator from his district, but two years
later was elected to the lower house
In his first session, he attracted at
tention for his watchfulness in oppo-
sition to several sO-called salary
grabs, and other legislation he held
questionable.
He was reelected in 1910 and was
narrowly defeated for the speakership.
In 1912 he was elected lieutenant gov
ernor, after being nominated on the
Republican ticket at the first primary
for state officers held in this state.
He was reelected in 1914 and became
governor December 80, 1915, when
Governor Hammond, a Democrat, died
suddenly in the south.
Mr.. Burnquist was born July Il,
1879, in Dayton, Iowa, graduated from
the Dayton high school and entered
Carlton college. He won the state
oratorical contest in 1901 for tina,
school, where he graduated in 1902
At Columbia university, New York, he
specified in constitutional law, get
ting the degree of master of arts in
1904. Returning to Minnesota, he
graduated from the state university
of law in 1905, and began, practice in
St. Paul that year.
Burnquist's simple home life has
beeh the subject of much comment,
since he became governor. 1t seemed
likely today that he will continue to
rent modest fiat in st. Paul, and
devote much of his spare time to his
wife and children, while he remains
governor.

Sans Inaugural ball, sans ceremony and

North Dakota governor.
At a joint session of the legislature, Fra.
zier took the oath Of office this afternoon.
With Support Of the Farmers Non-Partisan

bers, Frazier was swept into office with 81,

His stand for state owned terminal ele'
vators, packing plants, and flour mills, is a
part of the platform that agitated the North
Dakota farmers in much the same manner
as the torch of the Ku Klux klan OF the
days following the Civil war. This farmers
movement was against the "obnoxious sys-
