wards was appoidted village mar
shal and scavenger, with instruc-
tiOns to see that the ordinances re
lating to traffic on tn streets, i'm
pounding of stray animals and clean
ing up Of premises were enforced
While there have been no serious
auto accidents in Mountainair, there
have been several narrow escapes
and the accidents occurring in other
places should be a warning to Local
drivers Excuses come thick and
fast, cne often used being that no
speed signs are up. This is not neces
sary and will not be accepted An
other is that at times when there is
little traffic on the streets it is not
necessary to obey the law, but
this too does not evade the law, as
the law stands whether there be lit
tie or much traffic.
The council also arranged to use
the county Jail as a village bastile
in case there is necessity as the local
bastile is too cold for present use

Berlin, March 3.The government

Work on Peace Draft Making
Rapid Progress.

Paris, March 3.-The work of draft
ing the preliminary terms of peace
through the armistice conditions is
making rapid progress.
When President Wilson returns he
will find the terms settled. Indeed. the
somewhat optimistic view was ex-
pressed that the whole matter might
be put through within a fortnight.
There still are one or two points of
Importance to be settled even in the
military and naval terms, and it is
clear that the fixing Of Germany's
eastern frontiers is matter which
cannot easily be accomplished in the
absence of any definite information
or any definite policy with regard to
Germany.
This point has become clear in the
discussions of the future of Poland and
in arranging for the dispatch of Cen
eral Haller's Polish divisions from
France to Poland.
The naval terms have been agreed
upon with one important exception.
The French ministry Of marine re-
serves acceptance of the principle that
war vessels are to be destroyed. The
French argue their fleet has suffered
losses which, owing to the army re-
quirements of France, her workshops
and yards have been unable to make
good.
The Germans are to be- called upon
to hand over, in full repair, with their
guns and torpedoes, the battleships
iOldenburg, Thuringen, Ostenfriesland,
Helgoland, Posen, Westfalen, Rhein-
land and Nassau, the light cruisers
Pillau, Graudenz, Regenesburg, Stral-
sun, Strassburg, Augsburg, Kolburg
and Stuttgart and ~ modern destroy
ers and so modern torpedoboats.
The warships under construction
are to be broken up. The Helgoland
Notifications and harbor are to be de-
stroyed by the Geramns at their own
expense and the fate Of the island it
self is to be decided by the conference.
All Notifications defending access to
the Baltic are to be RACED and the Kiel
canal is to be open at all times to war
vessels and merchant ships of all ma.
lions.
The Austrian fleet of Ii battleships,
two cruisers, 100 light cruisers, 10
torpedoboat destroyers, 81 torpedo
boats, 80 submarines built and build
ing, and the Danube monitors will be
handed over to the allies.

Washington, March An the early

Senators La Toilette Of Wisconsin
and Sherman Of IlliR0is tried to carry

after talking themselves out and find

gave up and allowed the bill to pass.
1t was 6:18 when the final vote on
the bill was taken. At the time the
vote was ordered there were only nine
senators in the chamber, seven Repub-
licans and two Democrats.
Senator Penrose Of Pennsylvania de-

Soon deputies of the sergeant-at-arms

they succeeded in rounding up enough
