NEW YORK, Nav SIT is a ter
rible punishment the German peo-
pie and their mad rulers have
brought upon themselves" the New
York Times said today in an editor
ial on the peace treaty.
How great will be their moral
and spiritual suffering we cannot
know. because the world has its
doubts about the German con-
science"
The New York SGn objected 10
the league of nations being inter
woven with the peace terms and
said: The senate and not the presi-
dent is the representative of the
American people in the making OF
international agreements. Perhaps
its wisdom and patriotism will dis
cern a way for a broad reser-
vation which will meet here the sit
uation forced upon it by the exc
cutive."
THE international gibbet is high
and within the blight of its moose
hangs a clanking example" said the
Tribune. The settlement will make
for peace"
The Kansas City Times said: As
TO the terms, they apparently were
designed to impose all the traffic
would bear. They are steep terms,
steep and stiff. They are such terms
as only victors could dictate. and
that none but the vanquished would
accept. Hard but just"
Cleveland Plain Dealer: "A hard
peace il is, but not an unjust one
Germany saves more from the
wreck than she has any moral right
TO claim. Germany grumbles Of

Conjuring With Humor.

The famous orchestral conductor
DR.. Richter, is blessed with the
precious faculty of keeping his tenn
per under strong provocation and o1
recovering quickly from irritation
whenever he yields to it; that has
naturally been a great help in his
dealing with his great orchestra. Al
a rehearsal, according to the Man
chester Guardian, one of the musi-
clans made a mistake.
mol" cried DR.. Richter, 1T goes
so (humming), rum-tum-tarum!"
Presently the same player made
another mistake.
"No! No! Rum-tum-tarum!" cor
rected DR.. Richter excitedly.
At third mistake he momentari-
ly lost patience. "Why do you make
so many slips, Mr.. Green?" he
shouted. Then instantly, with all
his habitual good humor, he added,
smiling, "Ah, know why it is-you
like to hear me sing!"

DOUBLE TRAGEDY.
j. Strickland Kills HI. Strickland and
Commits Suicide.

Lexington, Feb. 4.-Henry Strick-
land, a we'll known farmer of Swan
sea section of this county, was shot
and instantly killed by his brother,
James Strickland, at about noon to-
day, soon after which James Strick-
land went to his own home quar-
ter of mile away, went into the
house, pulled off his shoes, went out
on the front porch and blew his
brains.
From information received here
over the long distance telephone, it
seems that there had been a grudge
of long standing between the two
brothers. James Strickland, it, is
said, went to the home of Henry to-
day, called Henry out of the house
and offered to- make terms Of peace.
Henry agreed and sat down on the
front steps to talk the matter over.
No sooner, however, according to the
report, had he sat than James drew
a pistol from his pocket and fired.
The first shot missed the mark, and
Henry arose to get out Of the way,
it is claimed, when a second bullet
from his brothers pistol killed him
instantly.
Both Of the men were up in forty
and well-to-do farmers. Both leave
large families. The double killing
has naturally caused gloom Of
sorrow to spread throughout the en-
tire section.
An inquest was held over the two
bodies by Magistrate E. NJ. Martin
this afternoon.
