with the question of the self-determina- ton of the Ukraine. concerning which there is no room for conflict between the two sister republics
 UKRAINIAN ACCEPTS
 NJ. Bolub owysch, the Ukranian secre- tary of state, accepted the statements of Count Czernin and NJ. Trotzky and announced that his delegates would par ticipate in the peace negotiations on that basis.
 Later in the session the delegates dis cussed the German claim that the Rus sian wireless statements issued during the recess constituted a transgression of the spirit of the armistice. M. Trotzky desired to know in what par ticular the spirit. of the armistice had been transgressed by the communlca , lions and General IIoffinann Of the Ger man delegation replied:
 HOFFMAN'S REPLY
 "At the head of the armistice treaty stood the words bring about lasting peace' Your Russian propaganda trans gressed this intention because it did not strive after q lasting peace but to carry the resolutions concerning civil war into the countries of the central powers.''
 M Trotzky answered General Hoff- man, pointing out that all the German newspapers were being freely admitted into Russia, even newspapers which were supporting the views of the ex- treme Russian reactionaries. Complete equality had been observed in this re- spect, and it had nothing to do with the armistice treaty. General Hoffman re- torted that this protest was not directed against the Russian press, but against official government statements and statements which bore the signature of Ensign Krylenko. commander-in- of the bolshevilS forces.
 VIEW OF TROTZkY
 To this statement Trotzky replied that the treaty contained no restrictions on expressions of opinion by citizens of the Russian republic or their govern ing officials Dr. Richard von Kuehl- mann, the German foreign minister, in- terrupted M. Trotzky, saving:

Fuel Administrator Gar fields Threat to Take Control Has Indorse-
 ment of President
LASTING AGREEMENT MUST BE REACHED
 AND THAT AT ONCE
Kilby and Ed Smith in Washington Present Op- posite Views on Fate of
 Dry Amendment
By HUGH w. ROBERTS

Washington, January 13.-tSpeciai.) The operators and operatives of coal mines in Alabama must reach per- manent agreement or the government will take control of the properties.
 President Wilson himself says so.
 This fact is not officially announced but it is circulated in administrative quarters, and it is true.
 It develops that the proposed agree ment set out by H. A. Garfield, national fuel administrator, has not been actually ratified by the operators.
 The fly in the ointment is in the form of an amendment to the agreement ap- pended by the operators. This amend ment would bind the government to force the miners to live up to their part of the contract.
 Dr. Garfield has assumed the position that this amendment is reflection on the honor and integrity of the miners. He presumes that the operators are proceeding in the belief that the miners will not regard the contract when it is not to their interest to regard it. He holds, too, it is believed, that the opera. tors in offering the amendment knew that the government could not force the miners to do those things which honor q ff lo

(ADV.)
THE RED CROSS NURSES OF EUROPE
ARE GIVING TOASTED
CIGARETTES TO THE BOYS

To anyone who doesn't know of the
wonderful advances that have been made
in the preparation of smoking tobaccos
in the last few years it may sound strange
to speak of toasted cigarettes.
Strictly speaking, we should say ciga-
rettes made of toasted tobacco; the smok-
ers of this country will recognize it more
readily by its trade name, LUCKY
STRIKE toasted cigarette.
The American Tobacco Company are
producing millions of these toasted ciga-
rettes and these are being bought in
enormous quantities through the various
tobacco funds conducted by the news
papers of the country and forwarded
through the Red Cross Society to the boys
in France.
This new process of treating tobacco
not only improves the flavor of the tobacco
but it seals in this flavor and makes
the cigarettes keep better.
The Red Cross nurse is always glad to
have cigarette for the wounded soldier,
as, in most instances, that is the first
thing asked for.

basket ball team on the local floor
by the score of 80 to 29, was acct

game was unusually exciting and
much enjoyed by the spectators.
The Rathdrum team secured a
lead of 10 to 8 in the first hall,
which the visitors all but overcame'

several minutes the suspense was
great while the visitors strove in
vain to make the two points that
would give them the victory. This
was the second defeat the Rath-

The Pneumonia Season.

The cold, damp weather OF March
seems to be the most favorable for the
pneumonia germ. Now is the time to
be careful. Pneumonia often results
from cold. The quicker a cold is
gotten rid of the less the danger. AS
soon as the first indication of cold
appears take Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. AS to the value of this
preparation, ask anyone who has used
it.
