gary, or what remains of that once
powerful empire, after it's recent in
ternal disintegration, was definitely
eliminated from the war at 8 o'clock
this morning.
At that hours o'clock p. m. in
Rome and Vienna-the armistice pre-
pared by the supreme war council and
accepted by the Austrians became ef-
Ifective. Germany thus is left to battle
alone until such time as she, too, ac-
cepts the arnistice terms now IN
preparation at Versailles or surrend-

Announcmtn that the arm1stlce had
been signed was officially made in sew

It followed the complete rout OF the
Austrian armies by the Italian and
allied forces operating with them.
Over 100000 prisoners were taken,

Celebrate Trieste's Feast Day.
Rome, Nov. 4.--News of the occu-
patton of Trieste is causing great Joy
and enthusiasm throughout Italy.
Throngss are everywhere In the
streets chaering the king. the army
and the navy. In Rome the bells OF
Monte Ctttorio and all the capitol
were ring.
By a strange coincidence the TtaI-
fans entered Trieste on the feast day
OF San Juste, the patron saint of the
redeemed city, which all the popula-
ton, Including the Jews, formerly
celebrated under Austrian rule as
patriotic demonstration Of their Ital-
ian nationality.
Austrians Go Home.
The governor, the chief OF police
and other Austrian authorities left
Trieste on Thursday after the public
welfare committee had assumed the
administration OF the city, Vienna

To Save From Looters.
The occupation Of Trieste by allied
naval contingents was in response to
an invitation from the committee on
public welfare which was sent from
Trieste to Venice by torpedo boat,
according to Vienna kilograms re-
cefved here. A difficult situation had
arisen in the town, while danger of
looting is threatened Trieste because
OF the Austrian troops streaming
back from the front.

TERMS FOR A MAD DOG,

The greatest fear of the American
people today is that terms other
than unconditional surrender may be
given Germany This may be with
out foundation, but no other terms
than unconditional surrender will
satisfy the people, and apropos OF
this the Coconino Sun hits the spike
squarely on the head when it says:
The beastly Hun with his atrocious
acts so bloodthirsty and inhuman as
to have utterly disgusted the most
savage tribes of the earth, can never
be adequately punished by the allies;
no civilized nation on earth could
devise and carry out a devilish pun
ishment that would fit their crimes.
Germany asking for terms?
What terms could be given a mad
dog?
What guarantee would the allies
have that any terms agreed upon
would not be "a mere scrap of paper?
There are no terms for the Hun
only termination of his beastly rule
forever.
The man or woman who talks
peace terms" is un-American; the
Hun peace talk is made by the Hun
in hopes that he may escape some of
the just punishment that God knows
and he knows he so justly deserves.
By all the blood and bonds we have,
this putrid spot in Europe should be
blotted out, so blotted out that not
one seed of its cancerous growth
should ever scar the face of earth
again.
Peace terms with mad dog?
Anything but unconditional sur
render makes the average Americans
blood boil.

CLOCKS MOVE BACK.

The clocks of the country will be
turned back one hour at 200 a. m,
the morning of the 9th of this
month. On March 81 next the clock
will again be moved ahead one hour.
This is in accordance with the fed
eral law regulating the burning of
daylight enacted last March.
Everybody must enforce this enact
ment. All corporations employing
men are required under the law to
take cognizance, no matter whether
they are operating three eight-hour
shifts or not All zones are covered
by the clock just the same as under
the old system and brings the time
closer to the meridian time in use be-
fore the zone system went into effect.
Under the law there Is less lamplight
used in business houses and in homes,
which is the basis for the law.

Plant Locust Shade Trees.

IN a locality and climate like that
of Parker shade trees are an absolute
necessity to the comfort of it's people,
yet it is remarkable how little at
tentiOn is paid to this important
matter. With but one or two eX-
ceptions, the only shade trees ever
planted in town were cottonwoods-
the poorest excuse for a shade tree
in existence, 1t requires an abun-
dance of water continually, and is a
veritable nuisance as the cotton
therefrom during certain periods of
the year is carried hither and thither
by the wind and insinuates itself into
everything The only shade tree for
this desert country is the black
locust such as DR.. A H. Littlefield
has recently planted around his
nome. This tree requires little or
40 irrigation after it once has a start
it grows very rapidly, gives a fine
shade, and it's wood has good COM
mercial value for all purposes. A
town lot planted to these trees would
more than double it's value in the
course of four or five years.

A Question of Veracity.

Bill Stake, an old-timer of Parker,
returned here Monday after an alb
sence of about two years, he having
been most Of the time in the vicinity
Of Prescott. While the lapse of two
years has wrought but little change
in Bills appearance, it has neverthe-
less contributed in the aggregate to
that inevitable age handicap, for he
says that when he presented himself
recently for enlistment he was turn
ed down because he had too many
years on a string That seems quite
reasonable and probable, but Dan
McGlone, another old-timer who
came in on the same train with Stake,
rises to point of veracity and says
that the latter has misstated the
facts, declaring that his application
was turned down, not on account of
his age, but because of his voracious,
inordinate appetite, especially for
'mulligan stews," a fact which he
(McGlOne) learned to his sorrow
when they "bached" together in Par
ker. While Dan has on several oc-
casions in the past been known to
tell the truth when a fabrication
would have served his purpose better,
(and vice versa). it might be well
nevertheless to take this story of his
with bit of that which is so essen
tial to palatable mulligan-a grain

SERIOUS TROUBLE.

A we'll known young society man
of Parker broke an unwritten law of
Parker society recently by deserting
the usual gay crowd and following
a new attraction AS his detection
was SO apparent and caused so much
comment, his friends were very in
djgnant and decided that the case
called for strong measures, so it was
decided to arrest him for desertion, a
most serious crime at this time The
local constable and a pair of hand
cuffs were pressed into service, and
the young mans gay career was cut
short in refreshment parlor where
he was entertaining his fair friend.
His face showed great surprise and
CONSERVATION when arrested and it
was thought at first that he would
resist the officer but he evidently
thought better of it and was led
quietly to face tribunal of his
friends, who had gathered in the
lobby of the Grand View hotel.
A judge was appointed, witnesses
were examined and the proceedings
conducted with the utmost solemnity
and decorum. For time it looked
very badly for the defendant and it
was feared by. his friends that he
might be sentenced to matrimony for
lie. However, some mercy was
shown by the able judge, for notwith-
standing that he was found guilty on
every count, he was let of tightly,
only being compelled to introduce
his new friend, state his position
fairly (Which he did like mani
join his old company and assume all
the expenses of his arrest and trial.
Said expenses consisted of various
dishes of ice cream, fuzzy drinks, etc.

Wilson has answered the German

which not only fills the expectations

would supplant the victory at arms
with peace of diplomacy.
No peace with Kaiserism.
Autocracy must go.
No armistice while Germany con-
tinues her atrocities on land and sea.
No armistice can be considered by

made so that Germany will not sign

bring capitulation, which may be
more than unconditional surrender.

Beyond question the presidents
note speaks for the entente as well
as for the United States. The dis
patch of the presidents reply was
featured by the following from Sec
retary Tumulty:
THE government will continue to
send over 100000 men with their
supplies every month, and there will
be no relaxation of any kind"
Quite outside the formal phases of
the diplomatic document, the state
ment of Secretary Tumulty was the
presidents word to the world that
he has no thought of stopping the
lighting at this date
