NIT. H Galley, who was later elected

sumed considerable time. Mr. Galley

Of committee to attend to the pre-
liminary work, and he was authorized
to name another member Of the COM
mittee, these two to choose the third
member. 1t is move in the right
direction
Mr.. E. K. Evans made a plea for
harmony in village. affairs, and de-
plored the discord and strife in evil
dence to a certain extent. It would
be fine thing and sensible thing to
eliminate all factions and all work for
the common good. But can this be
done? 1t can, if each one would con-
cede certain points, but it is safe bet
at 1000 to 1 that it will not be done.
Jim Hartman briefly but pointedly
also came out strong for unity. ~ -.
J. C. Herdliska called attention to
the fact that factions have existed since
he first knew Princeton, and said it
was we'll to talk harmony, but some
thing more than talk was needed.
Fred Manke turned considerable
light on the proposition for CONNER
cial club and said that if it was to be
a success attractive club rooms must
be arranged for. It is the only way
that interest could be sustained he
said, and that appeared to be the opin-
ion Of those present.
Mr.. C. A. Jack then urged that men
who can give the village a business
administration from taxpayers
viewpoint be nominated, and nomina-
tions were in order. -,
Several names were mentioned for
the head of the ticket. Mr.. e. K
Evans was nominated, but he abso-
lutely and fatty refused to accept.
Others mentioned were Messrs. T. H.
Galley, Jim Hartman and Fred New
ton. Swan Olson's name was then
sprung, and he was nominated by ac-
clamation. Chief interest hinged on
the presidency, and if all stick Mr..
Olson will show considerable strength
when the votes are counted. "
Mr.. Elmer Whitney was duly nomi-
mated for the council, but he withdrew,
pleading that he was now on the school
board and did not particularly relish
additional duties. Messrs. Ross, Gott-
werth and Newton were finally named:
For recorder, assessor, justice and
constable Messrs. Cravens, Howard,
King and King were then named.

all similar offenses which have taken place

Calling Lang Sign of
German Hopelessness

NEW YORK, July 30.-When
Germany called Anton Lang. ia
nous Christus of the Oberamer-
gau Passion Play, to military SER
vice she inadvertently let the cat
out of the bag regarding her mill
tary condition today
That move, according TO Cert
rude Anterior, famous American
authoress, proves Germany is on
her last legs and is going to ex-
tremes to continue fighting.
Anton Lang is a consumptive
and has not been expected to live
long. On account of his fame and
popularity as impersonator of
Christ, and his commercial value
to Germany, he would be perhaps
last to be ordered out.
The obvious deduction" says
Miss Atherton, SIS If Germany is
ordering her consumptiyes out.
she must be pretty hard up. For
all we know she may have emptied
her sanitoriums onto the battle
field"
Miss Anterior visited Oberam-
mergau in 1908, and boarded in
the Lang home.
MY husband is tubereular,"
Frau Lang told Miss Anterior.
He may be the Christus in 1910,
but he never will live until 1920"

START PEACE

LONDON, July 30.-Germany's
junkers are working hard with
the German people to justify
militarism.
An effort by the militarists to
delude the public into belief that
Germany is beset by rapacious
foes, who started the war to dis
member Germany, is what London
saw today behind the peace in
terview" granted by Chancellor
Michaelis of Germany and For
eign Minister Czernin Of Aus
tria.
Michaelis' peace interview was
rather an assault on England ana
France. He charged the allies
with secret agreements aiming at
"enslavement of Germany" He
was particularly bitter In responds
ing to Sir Edward Carson's sug~
gestion that the first step toward
peace would be for Germany to
announce her willingness to sur
render occupied territory.

along the usual Qermanic lines.
