The average Democrats vote was
about 5000 and the Republican average
1900 The average Democratic majority
WIS 1900. Gov. Cox's majority was bu,
few over to 400 votes, and Congress
man Welty's few less than 700. This
would indicate fully 500 to 700 pro. Ger
man votes went to the Republicans as a
protest against Wilson's conduct of the
war against German militarism. The
vote against Cox and Welty was plainly
intended as a stab at the President, as
it had never before affiliated with the
Republican party. Cox and Welty's
only plea was stand by Wilson, and the
pro-German voter knew where to strike.
Marion township was the greatest pro
German stronghold, Willis getting 234
votes and Russell 23S votes where there
have been practically no Republican
votes heretofore.
This reminds us of a saying that per
sisted long after the civil war, that all
Democrats were not horsethieves, but all
horsethieves were Democrats Now
that Republicans are classed in similar
fashion-all Republicans are not pro-
Germans, but all pro-Germans are Re

CELINA SURELY
DID CELEBRATE

Celina surely did celebrate the war S
end Monday and Monday evening. The
racket started about 4 o'clock, when the
schrill whistle at the water works plant
notified the slumbering population that
Germany, after disturbing the world S
peace for four long years, had thrown
up her nurderous hands and quit-in
other words the armistice between Ger
many and the allies had been signed and
peace had come again 10 a weary world.
And then the parading began, the din
and racket. One thing most noticeable
when the paraders moved up and down
Main street was the predominating num-
bers of womankind
1t was a happy and good natured
crowd and there was no rowdyism to
mar the occasion. Whistles and bells
helped to keep up the noise all day.
Never were so many flags seen on the
streets of Celina, and not until the boys
come marching home will the like be
seen again.
After the parade in the evening patri-
otic addresses were made at the inter
section of Main and Market streets by
ex-senator Johnson and Hon. p. +.
Kenney, aud patriotic music by the band
and vocal accompaniment added to make
the occasion one never to be forgotten.

has sent questionnaires to employers

show where, when and how rapidly
jobs will be ready for discharged

SOLF APPEALS
TO PRESIDENT
Enforcement Of ArmiStiGG Terms
Means Starvation, He Says.

London, Nov. 12.-Dr. Solf, the
German foreign secretary, has ad-
dressed a message to Secretary of
State Lansing, requesting that Presi-
dent Wilson intervene to mitigate
the fearful conditions" existing in
Germany.
DR.. Solf says, according to a Ger
man wireless dispatch received here,
that he feels it his duty to draw
President Wilson's attention to the
fact that the enforcement of the con-
ditions of the arpistice, especially
under the surrender Of transporta-
tions, means the starvation of mil
lions, and requests that the presi-
dents influence be directed toward
overcoming the danger. The presi-
dent, he points out, has declared that
he did not wish to make war on the
German people and did not wish to
impede their peaceful dvelopment

clared, "and now the terms of peace
have been drawn up and we have
not been asked to express our views
beforehand" He particularly object
ed that Australia should be prevented
from making her own laws, which
would enable her to discriminate be-
tween friends and foes in tariffs. 81
can not say what other dominions
will do, but nothing is further from
the thoughts of the Australian peo.
pie than to extend the same treat
ment to Germany in regard to tariffs

war as to France, Belgium, Italy and
America, and nothing but force will
compel us to do It," he declared.

WORLD WAR is ENDED
WEEKLY WAR REVIEW

During the week the allies contiA-
ued the work of driving the Germans
back to their own borders, substan.
tial progress in this task being made
in both Belgium and France. Impor-
tant points were taken from the en-
emy, and great quantities of war
stores captured by the French, Brit
ish and American forces. Maubeuge
and other towns were liberated. Par
ticularly notable was the work of the
American boys on both sides of the
Meuse river.
In the north Field Marshal Haig's
forces have driven the enemy beyond
the Franco-Be Belgian frontier, south of
the Sambre canal, and now are al
most within gun range Of Brussels.
The Germans are showing sitter re-
sistance with rear guards, but never
theless the British are overcoming
these efforts and pushing forVard.
Large quantities of supplies, includ-
ing much rolling stock, have fallen
into the hands of the British.
Likewise the French are still in
pursuit of the enemy, but before them
the German retreat seems to be
somewhat disorderly. The enemy is
abandoning guns and supplies Of all
descriptions, and in some instances
entire railroad trains have been left
behind. All the enemy's lines Of
communication now have been cap
tured, except the road leading north
ward from Mezieres.
General Pershing's troops continue
to make progress on both sides Of
the Meuse river and the American
second army has launched an attack
west of the Moselle river and gained
its objectives. On the Meuse the
town Of Stenay has been captured
by the Americans after violent op-
position. In the Moselle sector sew
eral woods and heights have been
cleared of the enemy by the Amert
cans, including the Boise de Waville,
from the northern fringes Of which
the great German fortress OF Metz
Is only 10 miles distant.

ties would cease at once.

WELL KNOWN
CITIZEN PASSES

George w. Struckman, aged SO, we'll
known and respected citizen, died at his
home in this city last Sunday. Death
was due to the bursting of blood vessel
on October IS, while he was completing
arrangements for a winters sojourn in
Southern California. A gIngrenous af-
fection followed. He suffered intensely
from that date until his death when not
under the influence of opiates.
The deceased was born and reared in
this city and was the son of the late Mr..
and Mrs. John Struckman, we'll known
pioneer citizens. His father was noted
as one of Celina's early wagon makers,
with whom the late VIM. Cron was at
one time associated.
Mr.. Struckman was graduate of the
Celina public schools, and early engaged
in business affairs. In 1877 he was we'd
ded to Miss Anna Blosser of Chillicothe,
who survives him. A sister, Mrs. Ste
phen Hellwarth, also mourns his passing.
Funeral services took place from his
late home Wednesday afternoon, Revs.
Roebuck and Motter officiating, his re-
mairs being laid to rest at North Grove
cemetery.
