Almost Immediately after receivinS

II am authorized by ths President 70
state that the following will b. the

"'Ths government Of the United
States feels that there is only one
reply which II car make to the sug-

and with entire candor stated the
terms upon which the United States

will entertain no proposal for 4 con-
ference upon q matter concernins
which It has made Its position and pur-
pose 10 plain"
Mr.. Lansing's statement was given
out within half an hour after he had
received the Austrian proposal.
There IL some reason to believe that
the secretary acted with this unprece-

great import with the design not only
to indicate clearly the position Of the

to anticipate and prevent as far az

 of the Methodist church at this place. Burial services were conducted by the local Woodmen of the World, of which he was member. Interment was had at Battle Axe cemetery.

STOCK LAW ENFORCEMENT.

This week the town officials began the work of enforcing the ordinance which prohibits stock from running at large within the corporate limits of town. This new law meets with the approval of many of the residents of town. while others are opposed to it. It has been suggested that some are determined to violate it and test it's validity in the courts. There is no doubt in our minds but what the law will stand the test of the court. A better way to settle the question is to make it an issue in the town cleo tion in April If a majority of those who are entitled to a voice in the matter say they want the law, then let it continue to be enforced. We are living in democratic coun- try and believe in the principles of Majority rule"
