SOCIETY FOR GERMAN
REPUBLIC Is ACTIVE

NEW YORK, June 23.-With
Down with the Hohenzollerns!" as
their slogan. subjects of the kaiser
here have organized society called
the Friends OF the German Republic,
and are actively campaigning among
Germans in the United States.
The members OF the society declare
in a statement that sentiment for
republic is growing rapidly in Ger
many. The statement reads, in part:
"The sooner the German people re-
move their autocrats and junkers, the
sooner peace will come. The Russians
have shown us the way. The German
people are longing for peace. They
did not make the war. Freed from
the incubus of an arrogant militar
istic clique and organized in demo
crabtIc repulic, they would at once be
in position to conclude honorable
and stable peace.
Travellers tell us that the republi'
can movement is spreading rapidly
We hear Of men and women being ar
rested for spreading this propaganda.

PROMINENT MAN KILLED.;
BERT MCINTOSH INJURED

Charles Madison is dead and c. II.
tBerU Mcintosh is in st. Mary's hos
pital in Reno suffering from several
slight wounds, as the result of an
automobile accident Thursday after
noon on the Red Rock road, says the
Gazette.
They were travelling in Madison's
car to Susanville' when the accident
occurred and were going at high rate
OF speed. Coming TO a sharp turn in
the road they met another car driven
by D. B. Robinett, district attorney of
Modoc county, and in attempting to
pass IL on the narrow road the car
skidded in the sand and tipped over.
II rolled over and over for 200 feet
down the steep hillside, crashing
through a barbed wire fence on the
first turn and stopping bottom side up
with both men under 1t.
Madison was killed by the steering
wheel when the car first turned over
and Mcintosh was thrown into the
tonneau and saved from being crushed
by the seats.
Madison was one of the best known
contractors in this section. He ha6
lived in Nevada for about fifteen years
and did considerable work in various
mining camps. He built the Rochester
mill at Rochester and several mills al
Tonopah and in other districts. He re
turned three days ago from Montana
where he had just completed mill
and was on his way to some mining
property near Susanville, which he
and Mcintosh were going to inspect
Later he was going to visit his wife
and two children on his ranch near
Susanville. He had several presents
and toys for the children in the car
Both Mcintosh and Madison lost
considerable money from their pock
cts as the car rolled down the hill
Madison had $127 in gold and McIn
tosh $40 Most of this was lost In
the sand but some was found later.

RUSSIA TRUE
To HER ALLIES
Ambassador Says That People
Themselves are Opposed to
Separate Peace

WASHINGTON. June 23.-Ambas-
sador Bakhmrtieff, head OF the Rus
sian mission. declared in an address
before congress today that the Rus
sian people themselves oppose separ-
ate peace with Germany. A great
demonstration followed which was
joined in by the galleries. His ad-
dress was made before joint ses.
sion.
Wild shouting, waving OF handker'
chiefs and prolonged applause were
renewed when the ambassador said:
"Rumors OF a separate peace are
without foundation. In fact Russia'E
endeavor is for lasting peace between
democratic nations, and the triumph
OF German autocracy would render
such peace impossible. Russia will not
fail to be worthy partner in the
league of honor"

ORGANIZING A
FIRE DEPARTMENT

Fire Chief F. H. Van Volkenburg is
busily engaged organizing a FIRE de-
partment, and he said today that he
expects to have one of the best organi-
cations of the kind in Nevada.
At a recent meeting of the Board
of Supervisors an order was made d.
recting the chief to select five young
men TO serve as volunteer dremen,
with the understanding that each will
be paid five dollars for services actu-
ally rendered at each fire. The chief
was directed to draw up set OF
rules for the firemen, which are to be
submitted to and approved Of by the
board.
Mr.. Van Volkenburg says the rooms
for the volunteers will be furnished at
the FIRE house, and this will enable
them to get to fires quickly, partic
ularly at night. This will prove ar
inducement for young unmarried men
without homes. The free use OF the
rooms will compensate them well for
their services at fires.
Regular drills will be had and 1t Is
proposed to give dances occasionally
for the benefit of the department.
With our splendid chemical en-
CINE and other FIRE fighting apparatus,
and an organized fire department. resi-
dents and property holders should
feel a sense of security.
The idea of furnishing rooms for
the iiremen is good one, and II
should enable the chief to secure good
men.
