is Just what he does when he is not
willing to join in with "the other
side" in every matter that is patent
ly for the advancement of the com
munity interest.
We have said that all towns have
factions. Towns will always have
them. This does not mean that the
towns progress is retarded by them.
In many cases the factions serve to
stimulate rivalry in achievement.
Where this is the case they are bene-
ficial
A wholesome slogan for any town
would be: Go after an opportunity
and land it; then if we must scrap,
let it be over division of the spoils."

5uring themselves vastly more than
they were injuring their community,
surely they would take a different
view OF things.
The man who deliberately stands
in the way of his communlty's prog
ress is dlsloyal. Just now this word
has an ugly sound, but we can use
no other, because no other so well
fits the offense. Placed in broader
circumstances, the offense would be
magnified. No mans personal in
teres and no mans personal animos-
ity, can for moment weigh in the
scale with the welfare of his COM
munity, and the man who permits
them to do so is as truly disloyal as
man who deliberately plots against
mis- country in the large. There is a
difference only in the magnitude OF
the offense.
Fortunate. indeed, is the town
which. when any move affecting the
general welfare is being considered,
can drop its factional disputes and
put a united shoulder to the wheel
in the public interest.
No man has the right to inflict
his personal grievances on his COM
munity and compel 1t to suffer be-
cause of his own sore toe. Yet this

NEWPORT NEWS

NEWPORT NEWS, Va. Nov. H. Rlotous scenes attended the celebra- ton here tonight of peace. Thousands of soldiers and sailors took possession of the city, wrecking street cars, raid- ing restaurants, breaking plate glass windows and building bonfires in the streets from smashed delivery wagons and other wreckage. No casualties were reported
 The city's street car service was de- moralized by the celebration, the soI- diers and sailors taking charge of the cars after driving away the crews. AL legged unreasonable prices for food were said to have been responsible for the raids on stores. Foodstuffs were car ried off and considerable property damaged.
 The soldiers engaging in the demon Stratlon were from the several en- barkation camps in this city and vii cinity.
 After the mobs had forced suspen- sion of street car service, the closing lof every business place on the princi- tpal' streets, and had done thousands of dollars damage, two companies of guard troops were ordered out, and at midnight they were patrolling the streets.
 The troops have the situation under control.
 Number of people were slightly hurt. Major Percy Hamilton. who attempted to remonstrate with the rioters, was struck by a brick thrown by a sailor A number of arrests have been made.

War.End Racket Was Too Noisy
 So Birds Leave

There was no pest of blackblrds in the vicinity of Phoenix yesterday. Farmers had been bothered by them a great deal of late. They gathered apparently by millions in fields where there was seeding going on. Farm CTS had been arming themselves with shot guns with which to scare them away, for the blackbird has holy fear of firearms.
 But yesterday the guns were not needed.
 To the amazemert of husband men the birds did not come around. The supposition is that these allies of the Huns were frightened by the racket in this vicinity yesterday morning and left the country as soon as it was daylight
 The noise and uproar had not been by any means confined to Phoenix. Wherever the noise of the great whistles reached in the country 1t brought out responses in the discharge of revolvers, shot guns, sticks of dynamite and what ever else would make a reVerbera- ton.

NATION JOY MAD
fContinued from Page onel

iContllueu lIOul- age One) izenry know what it has meant to be ruled by the Whim of an imperial mas ter. The flight of a kaiser from the righteous wrath of a once deluded but now awakened people was to them, therefore, a symbol of the millennium. The measure of their rejoicing was in proportion to the majesty of the event.
 To the other millions the magic words, cease firing meant many things, but all of them superlatively wonderful. In consequence, the pre- mature celebration of three days ago seemed only a dress rehearsal
 There were celebrations, big and little, in all quarters of New York tonight, but all equally heartfelt Those in the foreign quarter were per haps the most picturesque. Red fire burned everywhere and every known device for making noise was at a premium.
 Tons of confetti sprinkled in the streets added a carnival note. The great thoroughfares were packed from building line to building line with ! ever-changing multitudes. In Broad way, Fifth avenue and the main cross streets vehicle traffice was almost abandoned. Men in uniforms of blue l and khaki were caught up here and there and carried on the shoulders of 1 the crowds.
 There was no attempt at formal eel 1 ebrations. That will come later. The 1 outpouring into the streets was a mere 1 continuation of the victory parade decreed by Mayor Hylan as token ot the city's thanksgiving.

 The president, he points out, has de- clared that he did not wish to make war on the German people and did not wish to impede it's peaceful develop ments.
 s'The German government has re- ceived the conditions of the armistice,' continues Dr. Solf. I've had to accept the conditions, but feel it our duty to draw the presidents attention most soleDnly and with all earnestness to the fact that the enforcement of tt2 conditions must produce among the German people feelings contrary to those upon which, alone, the recon struction of a community of nations can rest. guaranteeing a just and dur able peace.
 'The German people, therefore, at this fateful hour. address themselves again to the president, with the re quest that he use his influence with the allied powers in order to mitigate 1 these fearful conditions"

WASHINGTON

WASHINGTON, Nov. 11-War- time Washington celebrated noisily the ad- vent of peace.
 The demonstration was getting well under way when President Wilson drove to the capital to read to congress the terms imposed upon defeated Ger many, and it continued uninterruptedly until far into the night.
 The city's thousands swirled and ed- died through the streets, welcoming the end of the war with confetti, tin horns and tumult, while automobiles and trucks loaded with people and with horns, going at full blast, paraded in an endless circle over Pennsylvania avenue from the capitol to the treas- ury building.
 The appearance of units in the army navy and marine corps in the parade in the afternoon inaugurated the United War Work campaign for fund | of $170, 100000 for welfare work among soldiers and sailors and was made the reason for renewed efforts by the crowds in cheering and noise- making The president reviewed the pageant from the executive office gate to the 1 White House grounds and each of the marchers-soldiers, sailors and civil ians-with their throng of spectators saluted or cheered the executive.

PHILADELPHIA

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 11.-Demon- strations such as never have been seen in Philadelphia welcomed the signing of the armistice. From early morn ing until late tonight the city was in almost a frenzy of excitement and pa triotism.

Factory whistles blew continuously from before day until tonight.
 A general holiday was declared. All factories, mills and stores closed for the da and thousands of workers rushed to the center of the city to cele- brate. Traffic was badly tied up, but the crowds were unusually good-na- tured and sang and cheered as they marched the streets.

LONDON

LONDON, Nov. 11.--(British wire less service)-The lord mayor of Lon- don. who in response to calls from the crowds came to the front of the man sion house, said:
 graduate ourselves on the great news that our four years of strenuous work has now come to an end, and that we see before us the result of the strenu- ous labor of Great Britain and her all lies.
 Let us not forget that there is still work for every loyal and patriotic citi- zen. in the reconstruction, and many other problems which must arise. I will only say now, let us give three cheers for his majesty."s
 To this there was a great response. At the admiralty there were calls for a speech from Sir Eric Geddes, the first lord The crowds had collected there and hastily improvised platforms were erected for the first lord and the members of the board of admiralty, Sir Eric Geddes called for three cheers for Vice Admiral Beatty Commander of the grand flee) and these having been given with great feryor. the crowds again asked for a speech, but the cheering drowned all else. The first lord called for cheers for the Brit tsh bluejackets.
 A special service of prayer was held at St. PauFs in the afternoon, the lcrd mayor and sheriffs attending. l --O-

 Business was abandoned Factories, stores, banks, offices, schools closed. Those who had come down town to work joined the merrymakers in the streets.

Tons of paper thrown from office buildings fell on the crowds and piled up in the streets At several points bonfires were built on the car tracks and schedules were abandoned.
 Among the paraders were several funeral corteges paying joyous trib- ute to the end of the kaiser. One ot these consisted of a. solemn faced band playing Chopin's death march, a black hearse bearing black casket which was inscribed, -The Kaiser's Coffin he's going where he belongs" and 6 long procession of mourners with blacl bands around their hats. Ever ant anon, the procession would stop .anC one of the t4mourners' would emit { howl and turn a. somesault amid fran tic applause. And then the procession would continue.

SAN FRANCISCO

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 1.-The Pacific coast went joy mad today. From everywhere came the same story. 4 riot of allied flags. A riot of sound in which every conceivable noise maker joined Governor William D. Stephens of California decreed a holiday. So did the mayors of scores of cities in all the Pacific coast states. At Walla WaIla, Washington, public prayer at Liberty Temple at midnight, opened the celebration and noise making which has continued ever since San Fran cisco paused for few minutes at 1 o'clock this afternoon while the crowds in the great civic center stood with bowed heads in prayer.
 Workers in the great shipyardS of the coast were conspicuous among the crowds. In San Francisco hundreds of them clad in their grimy overalls headed the demonstration led by the mayor and chief of police. Policemen marched arm in arm with civilians whose influenza masks were worn all awry, or who had neglected to wear them at all. A few hours earlier these same citizens would have been arrested and forced to pay a fine for breaking an ordinance which requires every one to be masked properly.
 Tonight, public dances and fireworks everywhere, were made a part of the celebrations. In San Francisco it was an influenza masked ball.

 Iron Ring Tightens
 In a word, the iron ring is frightened, and at her borders the civilized world waits while Germany reforms herself from within.
 One provision of the arrnistice, which was supplementary to the text as first drawn by the supreme war council and, therefore, does not appear in the text, as President Wilson delivered it, was inserted after the German revolution aries took possession of the Geyman fleet. It provides that if the fleet is not delivered, as specified in the agree ment. the associated governments may occupy the Helgoland fortress as an advanced base to secure possession of it.
