PROCEEDINGS OF
ATELEGISLATURE

The twenty-eighth session of the
Nevada Legislature will expire by
constitutional limitation on Thursday
at midnight. 1t is likely, however.
that the session will not end before
Friday forenoon, and, following the
usual custom, the clocks in both
houses will be stopped before mid
night
Most of the really big legislation
of the session remains to be enacted.
but some of the more important meas
ures have been passed by one or the
other of the houses.
The general appropriation bill is
not likely to make its appearance
until the last hours of the session.

WONDERFUL STUFF!
LIFT OUT YOUR CORNS!
Apply a few drops then lift corns or
calluses off with fingers
no pain.


No humbug! any corn, whether
hard, soft or between the toes, will
losen right up and lift out, without a
particle of pain or orene
This drug is called f~reezone and is
q compound of ether discovered by a
Cincinnati man.
Ask at any drug store for a small
bottle of freezone, which will cost
but a triie, but is sufficient to rid
ones feet of every corn or callus.
Put a few drops directly upon any
tender, aching corn or callus. In
stantly the e disappears and
shortly the corn or callus will loosen
and can be, lifted off with the fingers.
This drug freezone doesn't sat
out the corn or calluses but shrivels
them without even irritating the sur
rounding skin.
Just think! No pain at all; no
or smarting when applying
it or afterwards. If your druggist
don't have ~freezone have him order
It for you. 8

intricacy and in danger, and | would

did not deal with you in these matters
with the utmost candor, and tell
you what it may be necessary to use
the force of the United States to do"
The next day at st. Louis, he re-
peated his warning: "The danger
is not from within, gentlemen, it is
from without; and / am bound to tell
you that danger is constant and inn
mediate, not because anything new
has happened, not because there has
been any change in our international
relationships within recent weeks or
months, but because the danger
comes with every turn of events"
The break would have come sooner
if our Government had not been re-
strained by the hope that saner coun-
sells might still prevail in Germany.
For it was well known to US that the
German people had to a very large
extent been kept in ignorance of ma
ny of the secret crimes of their
Government against US. And the
pressure Of a faction of German pub
lie opinion less hostile to this country
was shown when their Government
aequiesced to some degree in our de-

ing peace for all the world. The adj
dress of our President, on May 81,
1916, before the League to Enforce
Peace was a milestone in our his
tory. He outlined the main prin-
ciples on which a stable peace must
rest, principles plainly indicating
that this nation would have to give
up it's position of isolation and as
sumo the responsibilities of a world
power. The President said:
\ $50 sincerely do we believe these
things that / am sure that | speak
the mind and wish of the people of
America when I say that the United
States is willing to become a ,a..-
ner in any feasible association of
nations formed in order to realize
these objects and make them secure
against violation"
1t was a new and significant note
in our foreign policy. But the mind
of America had learned much in the
long bitter months of war. Future
historians will make charts of this
remarkable evolution in our public
opinion: the gradual abandonment Of
the illusion of isolation; the slow
growth of a realization that we could
not win freedom on sea-for US a
vital interest-unless we consented
to do our share in maintaining free
dom On land as well, and that we
could not have peace in the world
the peace we loved and needed for
the protection of our democracy
miles we we,e willing and prepared
to help to restrain any nation that
wilfully endangered the peace of the
whole world family.
Had thus address of the President
come before the war, there would
have arisen a storm of protest from
all sections CT the land. Tut in
May, 1916, the Nations response
was emphatic approval.
The Tupelo journal., 1917-08-24

In the meantime, although our neu-
trail rights were not brought into
question by Germany as early as by
England, the German controversy
was infinitely more serious.
For any discussion that might arise
no arbitration treaty existed between
the United States and the German
Government. This was from no
fault of ours. We had tried to es-
tablish with Germany the same treaty
relations we had with Great Britain
and 10 other nations. But these
overtures had been rejected. And
this action on the part of the lmpe-
rial German Government was only
one example of its whole system of
diplomacy. In both conferences at
The Hague it had been the German
delegates who were the most active
in blocking all projects for the paci-
fc settlement of disputes between
nations. They had preferred to linn
it international relations to the old
modes of diplomacy and war. 1t
was therefore obvious from the first
that any controversy with the Ger
man Government would be exceed
ingly serious; for if it could not be
solved by direct diplomatic CONVEX
sations, there was no ex-
cept to war.
From such conversations there is
small hope of satisfactory results UNI
less the good faith of both sides is
profound. If either side lacks good
faith, or reveals in all it's actions an
insidious hostility, diplomacy is of no
avail. And so it has proved in the
present case
In the first year of the war the
Government Of Germany stirred up
among its people a feeling of resent
ment against the United States on
account of our insistence upon our
right as a neutral nation to trade in
munitions with the belligerent pow
ers. Our legal right in the matter
was not seriously questioned by Ger
many. She could not have done SO
consistently, for as recently as the
Balkan Wars of 1912 and 1913 both
Germany and Austria sold munitions
to the b~elligerents. Their appeals to
US in the present war yer not to
observe international law, but to re-
wise it in their interest. And these
appeals they tried to make on moral
and humanitarian, grounds. But up
on the moral issue" involved, the
stand taken by the United States was
consistent with its traditional policy
and with obvious common ense.
For if, with all other neutrals, we re-
fused to sell munitions to belliger-
ents, we could never in time Of q
war of our own obtain munitions
from neutrals, and the nation which
had accumulated the largest reserves
Of war supplies in time of peace
would be assured Of victory. The
militarist state that invested its mon
ey in arsenals would be at a fatal
advantage over the free people who
invested their wealth in schools. To

THE ARMY WAY.

The execution Of thirteen negro sol- ders. and the sentencing to life inn prisonment of II others, together with minor punishiaents still against oth- CTS, proves up the army way of do ing business. In time of war disci- pline must be enforced in a trIfle more emphatic manner than at other times, and taat was what was done III the final chapter of the Houston riot ing.
 Over in France an American sol dier committed nameless crime. fol- lowed by the murder Of a little French girl He was shot forthwith. That ended the case
 Soldiers are assembled in great Dambers and armed Tor the purpose of meeting an enemy foe. Unless men were under the most careful and rigid restraint during such periods th1re would be no army Each unit. a distinct power within itself, would soon come to be revolutionary in is tendencies
 The Houston rioting was inexcus able. Racial preiudices were behind it. White police officers had made an arrest that was simple enough in its character. The person arrested hap pened to be a negro. The negro sol diers, secure in their numbers, inler- fered and the trouble started. Then the lioting followed.

NO ACTION TAKEN LIN
 BASEBALL SCHEDULE
MATTER IS ONLY FORMALLY DISCUSSED AT NATIONAL
 LEAGUE MEETING.

New York. Dee 12- Compared with the excitement attending the National league meeting here yesterday when the reelection of President Tencr on his own terms and the sale of Pbna- delphias star battery Alexander and Kilifer, 10 Chicago, were the main features, todays session of the mag mates was without incident
 The length Of next seasons playing schedule and the possible reduction of the player limit were informally dis .cussed but no action was taken. Both were unanimously deferred until Che National ieaue representatives can get to Chicago, where they will hold .a joint conference with the American league club owners Friday or Satur- day It was announced tonight that they might leave for Chicago early to- morrow.
 The constitution was amended SO that there can be no dispute in future as was claimed in the recent McGraw case, as to there being no appeal to the board of directors from the iind- ings Of the league president in im- posing a heavy fine for scanda,ous conduct n or off the field An appeal may be taken. however, if a player be suspended for a period of more than ten days
 There was am attempt To change the rule so that waivers might te with drawn but it was agreed that the present waiver rule is Che best ever adopted and it will remain intact. The leaEueuuanimously went ou Irecord n favor of the creation Of a
 new plan of dividing the players part of tho worlds series receipts. Based on the returns of ghe five se- ries prior to 1917, the players on clubs finishing as far down as seventh l place Will receive a share It is hoped
 that this plan will prove an incentive Co greater effort in playing by sec ond division teams toward Inc end 0. each season. Under the now plan it
 8as computed that each player on the winning club would receive about l $25o0 and the losing players would get about $l.S00
 The league will aot aside one day
