wells that will not be affected by sur
face conditions or the water level In
the shallower gravel beds.
The test well Is six inches in diame-
ter 1t is now down about seventy
feet, and 1t Is the intention to put "
down thru the stratum Of clay that un-
derlies the gravel nearer the surface
from which all the citys supply Is nov
drawn.
May Sink Other Wells
II is expected that at depth Of loo
Feet or Whereabouts this clay stratum
Will be passed and second stratum
of water bearing gravel will be found.
In this stratum it is the expectation
that water will be found in an album
dance. Such was the experience at the
LaPlant farm, two or three miles
northwest Of the city's water supply
A well was sunk here thru the top
stratum Of gravel and clay into the
lower gravel bed and flowing well
was found.
If the test well, which is being bored
by A. E. Ford, gets the water Sec
ond and larger deep we'll, probably ten
inches in diameter, will be put down
The test we'll is near the south end OF
the water field. The second deep well,
if sunk, will not be more than 100 feet
distant from the first.
Water Supply 10 Ample.
Councilman Bell is not having the
test well sunk because the present
water supply is not ample, but to find
a source that will be sufficient and in
exhaustible. Altho the water being
consumed in the city has recently
been in larger quantities than ordi-
narily, yet the supply from the shall
low wells is sufficient. In recent hot
days the pumpage was more than
100000 gallons per twenty-four hours,
While the supply in the reservoir has
been lowered some days, the loss has
been made up each night. Councilman
Bell is anxious to find before the sum-
mer is over source of supply which
the city can tap and forever end the
possibility of water shortage. In ad-
dition it is believed water from deep
wells may be better water and that i
may be free of the iron solution that
gives the yellowish color to the water

"PEACE AND JUSTICE FOR WORLD CAN'T BE
LONG POSTPONED" SAYS WILSON

Washington, Jan. u. = President
Wilson today recommended that the
United States Join a league of ma
tons to enforce world peace.
In his speech before the senate he
urged that the principle of the
American Monroe doctrine be made
the doctrine of the world.
He declared there "is no entan-
Cling alliance in a cnocert of power"
The president said the settlement
to guarantee peace and justice
throughout the world cannot be long
postponed, and that this government
should formulate the conditions
upon which it could ask its people to
approve adherence to a league for
peace.
The president declared the pres
ent war must first be ended, but said
sit make a great deal of difference"
to this government 'in what way and
upon what terms it is ended"
He declared he was taking it for
granted that mere terms of peace be-
tween the beIligerents will not even
satisfy the warning nations them
selves.
Agreements will not make these
secure, he said, and it will be neces-
sary that force be created to guar
antee the pemanency of the settle
ment.
.."EquaIity of territory or of re-
sources there Of course cannot be; or
any other sort of equality not gained
in the ordinary peaceful and legfti-
mate development of the peoples
themselves. But no one asks or ex-
/ poets anything more than an equal
ity of rights. Mankind is looking
now for freedom of life, not for
equipoises of power"
He declared that the only peace.
which can last is a peace based upon
equality and a solemn participation
in common benefit.

declared, would be peace forced upon

INSULT AND BUSBY AT OUTS
ON FRANCHISE
Sam insult, head of the elevated
roads trust and of Commonwealth
Edison power company, told council
transportation committee today that
he wants a terminable franchise for
the new $5OO,OOO,OOO traction reOr-
ganiZation now in the wind.
Len Busby, head of Chicago Sur
face Lines, followed insult and took
an opposite stand for a definite term
of years for a franchise to run. He
said there was danger to the people
and to investors in the kind of a
franchise insult asks for.
Aid Walkowiak backed up Busby's
position and sprang to the front as
a challenger of insult. The power
trust head was starting to leave the
committee room. Walkowiak asked
why he was going.
''I've waited here so minutes and
my time is too valuable too waste"

CUTTING DOWN
 PAPER PRICES
Associated Press)

NEW YORK, July 27.- The Editor and Publisher of this city will to- morrow publish the announcement that the American Newspaper Pub fishers Associations paper commit tee has closed a contract whereby the entire output of Northclffe's new mountain paper mill will be made available for the small pub fishers of the country at less than current prices. In this manner il is expected that considerable of the pressure on the news print paper situation will be relieved and many small papers will be saved from go-
 ing under. Most cf the larger pa pers of the country already have their paper contracts, but after they had secured them the market was left in such a condition that it was impossible for the small publishers to get news print al other than eX- orbitant prices.

The plan was evolved in order that criticism of the defense council and it's purchases might be avoided. It is expected that the ap- pointment of the board will be fol lowed by deiuge of inquiries re garding government contracts.

BIG WAR WAS
 PREDICTED IN
 l2TH CENTURY

PARIS, July 27.-The war will end on Aug. 2S of this year and Germany will be crushed by the Italians, ac- cording to a prophecy attributed to St. Malachie, made in the twelfth century, recently unearthed by the director of the civil museum at Como and published in the Petit Journal.
 Malachie, the accuracy of whose predictions regarding the line of popes three centuries after his own era is celebrated, begins by spec fly ing, in somewhat mysterious Ian guage, the exact dat"-Aug. 2S, 1916 on which new races, taking their name from Romulue which must mean the Roumanans, would enter the war
 Then" the prophecy is said to continue, the ferocious beast which for two years and one month had covered the earth with blood, horror and carnage, will be enveloped on every side, and striking out yainly the while. will seek whom it can deyour, but will never find him.
 There will be great battles during thirteen moons. The fifth day after the sun comes out from the sign of the lion, the beast will die a very bad death"
 Including the moon which was new the day Roumania entered the war, the thirteenth new moon wOu-d rise on August 17th next and vanish again on Sept l6, and on Aug. 23 the sun leaves the sign of the Lion to enter under the sign of the Nlr- gin. Five days later would be Aug. 18th, and on that day, Malachie says, the war must end. Concerning Italy, he says

STRIKE STILL
 PREVAILS IN
 COAST CITIES
Associated Press)

SEATTLE. July 27.-After confer rnccs lasting for the better part of two days between the officials of the Puget Sound Electric Light, Power X Traction company and representa- tlves of the striking street car ope- .ar.ves of Tacoma and Seattle, se,- clement of the strike seems as far away as ever. The chief reason for in, deadlock is the fact that the officials consistently refuse 10 rccog- nize the car mons union. It is thought. however, that this is the only drawback to q settlement of the strike, as the strikers have signified their willingness to return to work at their status quo before the strike started.
 The city council of Seattle is now taking steps to prevent strike break CTS from the east from going to work. One of these steps is the in reduction of an ordinance requiring each street car motorman to have license to operate street cars before he will be allowed to do so. To SC cure this license he must pass an examination for competency.
