Declares II Contains No Conditions
Dlsgraeeful to the slaVs and Says
He viii Not Discuss Opinions Of
oermany's Enemies Regarding the
Pact - courland and LIthuanla
United to Germany, He Adds.
Copenhagen, March 20. - Saying
that he did not wish to discuss the
enemy's opinions regarding the Rug
sian peace treaty, Chancellor Won
Hertling declared in the reichstag
that the treaty did not contain terms
disgraceful to Russia, and that If GER
tain provinces were breaking away
from Russia it was in accordance with
their own wishes.
"If the reichstag adopts the
treaty OF peace, the whole east front
will he restored" Won Hertling said.
But among the entente allies there
is not yet the least inclination to lin.
ish the terrible war. The RESPONSIBLE
ity fer continuation Of bloodshed will
be on the heads OF those wishing to
continue it,"
Won Hertling's declaration was re-
ceived with loud cheers, except from
the members of the exit eme left
Hypocrisy" the chancellor de-
clared, has become second nature to
the enemy, whose untruthfulness is
made worse by its brutality. Every
attempt at calm explanation and
every real deliberation must fall when
the enemy. at the very moment they
are laying heavy hand on a neutral
country, dares to speak of policy
guided by complete unselfishness.
The treaty with Russia contains nc
conditions disgraceful to Russia, if
the provinces breaking away from
Russia say it is in accordance with
their own wish and the wish is ac-
cepted by Russia
The imperial chancellor declared
that Courland and Lithuania we're
united to Germany politically and
economically and militarily, and
added:
"LiYonia and Esthonia are the east
ern frontiers fixed by the treaty, but
we hope that they also will have close
and friendly relations with Germany,
not, however, to the exclusion Of their
friendly relations with Russia. Po-
land is not mentioned in the treaty
and we shall endeavor to see if it is
possible to live in stable and good
friendly relations with the new state.
'If the reichstag adopts the peace
treaty, peace on the whole eastern
front will be restored, as l announced
Feb. "a, but among the entente pow
ers there is not the least inclination
to finish this terrible war. The re.
sponsibility for bloodshed will be
upon the hands of those who wish
continuance OF the bloodshed."

Veteran James Norman

lanes Norman was born in Cincinnati,
Ohio, June %, 1912, where he grew to
manhood. At the breaking out of the
civil war Mr.. Norman, then only lad
of nineteen, like so many other youths
of that period, answered the call of his
country's need and enlisted in Company
E, Seventeenth Indiana Cavalry, serv-
ing four years faithfully and we'll. Upon
the expiration of his term of service he
returned to Cincinnati, his former home.
On January l, 1873, he was joined in
the bonds of holy matrimony to Miss
Jennie Ellis, of Camden, Ind. To this
union was born five children, of whom
three preceded him in death. Those
surviving him are Mr.. Frank Norman, of
Pataskala, Ohio, and Mrs. Otto Kuhn, of
ockford, Ohio.
Mr.. and Mrs. Norman remained in
Camden, Ind, where he was engaged in
the saw-mill business, until 1881, when
they moved to Mercer County, Ohio and
located near Wabash. In 1896 they
moved to a farm west of Celina, where
they resided until 1913, when the death
Angel called his loving wife to her re-
ward. In November, 1915, he came to
Celina to make his home, where he lived
until Thursday, March IA, 1918. Just
as the day was drawing to a close his
life went out and his spirit returned to
the God who gave it. That he was not
unmindful of Gods claim upon his life
was evidenced by the fact that he had
become a member of the Christian Church
at Wabash.
Catch, then, o catch the transient hour,
Improve each moment as it flies,
Life is a short summer, man flower
He dies, alas, how soon he dies.
Funeral services were held from the
Swamp College church Saturday, with
interment in the cemetery adjoining.
