DRY HEADS HOSPITAL BOARD

The annual stockholders meeting
of the Mexico Hospital was held Mon
day evening. ]. W. Dry was re-elect-
ed President; Nathan Phillip, Vice
President; Mrs. W. W. Bolts, Secre-
tary, and S. M. Locke, Treasurer.
Mrs. E. D. Graham and c. P. Malone
were reelected to the Board for a
period Of three years.
The yearly report of the institution
was read and compared with that OF
1916. This report is of more than
passing interest in view of the ap-
preaching election to decide whether
the county shall build hospital. The
County Court has made the statement
that the slight deficiency in the main

MESSAGE FOR RUSSIA
Statement Expected to Circumvent
German Duplicity if Farley is
Resumed

WASHINGTON, January 8. - In
response to the universal query as to
the reason which impelled President
Wilson to make his appearance so un-
expectedly before Congress yesterday
to enunciate the aims of the United
States and its cobelligerents, it was
stated authoritatively last night that
in the opinion of President Wilson the
psychological moment had arrived
when it was absolutely necessary to
make strong effort to counteract the
evil effects of German duplicity and
double dealing upon the Russians who
had been charged to meet the trained
German negotiations.
1t is felt that no efforts should be
spared to prevent resumption of the
Brest-Litovsk negotiations by the
Russians, without earnest but kindly
admonition by the allies and America
of the terrible dangers to which she
is exposed.
