'SSoA, <AuS. SA.--I IeSiuent
Wilson, as head of the greatest bel
ligerent, will name the peace terms.
1t was the presidents ambition to
settle the war'as a mediator. Hohen-
zollern frightfulness cheated him of
that, but the fates have decreed he
shall play the role anyhow.
Pope Benedict has probably opened
the way for the president to start the
drive which will end in peace-al-
though it may be months or years
away.
The pope's proposal turns out to
be document similar to the presi-
dents "peace without victory speech"
Denounced at first as pro-German,
it will eventually be found fatal to
Berlin's aspirations.
Whether the popc's plea was con-
ceived by him or some other subtle
brain in the vatican or at Vienna
both schools of the profoundest di-
plomacy-it is the most dangerous
blow aimed at Prussianism since the
war begun.
The pope's idea is related to the
relchstag revolt engineered by the
South-German Catholic party against
the Prussian war aims, which brought
on the recent abortive political crisis
at Berlin.
The pope's letter invites President
Wilson to widen this split by suit
able reply. Master of diplomacy and
language, Wilson, of course, will seize
the opportunity. He will make coun-
Ter proposals aimed at Prussia, not
Germany.
Ii Prussia answers unfavorably the
whole Berlin peace bluff will be ex-
posed and South Germany and Aus
trla will be shown they are fighting
Tor Prussian aggrandizcment alone.
On the other hand, if Prussia agrees
to Wilson'S proposals, the kaiser will
nave lost the war and German mill
tarlsm will be on its death bed.
Inc allies realize Wilson has the
key, and that they must yield him
leadership and sacrifice territorial or
commercial ambitions.

A final hearing on the building of the
federal aid highway across Wisconsin
was held in Madison today. Attorney

ments for the northern route. which
takes in Oconomowoc, Watertown, Wa
terlOo and Sun Prairie between Mil

pointed to hear the representatives Of
the different routes, convened today
In Madison with the three road COM
m1ss1oners of the state to hear the
final reasons why the route should
traverse either Of the three prospec-
tive routes
Should the northern route be chosen
1t would traverse the richest section
OF the state. 1t is also the most popu
lous and pays the most taxes.
The route selected will probably he
made known in a week or two. as tho
committee will hold seperate

MATCH PRICES ADVANCE.
Scarcity of Materials Is Given As the
Cause.

An advance in the price of matches
is again likely, owing to the increased
scarcity of the first quality of sulphur
used by match manufacturers. There
is a supply of sulphur that can be used
for matches but if that grade is used
it will require at least ten matches to
light one cigar or pipe
The parlor variety retails for five
six and seven cents now, depending on
the locality, store and matches handI-
ed. A further advance in price will be
made in a short time for the sulphur
supply is being purchased by NUM-
ton manufacturers
The small yellow box still retails al
one cent but the quantity that former
ly was given for a cent is not there al
the present time.
Match manufacturers will be com
PEELED to use the inferior grade OF
sulphur in short while and some
matches are now made of this inferior
grade and as result many are "cuss-
ing" the ten-to-one light brand.
