German counter proposals from Y
4 to 8 O'Clock. The ''big five'' "
finally eliminated the civilian
control = provision, which had
constituted one of the biggest
concessions to the Germans.
The tone is said to be more mod
crate and explanatory throughout,
and the document is intended to show
the allies desire to do justice and
avoid inflicting any unnecessary
hardships on their late enemies. The
change regarding Germany's admis-

Aviators Arrive in Ireland
Cross Atlantic In 16 Hours
Non Stop Flight Of Nearly
1000 Miles Is Made BY
Captain Alcock and Lieut..
Brown.

London, June 16.-A nonstop
flight over the Atlantic by airplane
has been accomplished. In their
Vickers-Vimy biplane in which they
set out from Newfoundland, Capt.
John Alcock and Lieut.. Arthur w.
Brown landed at $40 a. M, British
summer time, yesterday at Clifden,
on the west coast of Ireland, having
accomplished their journey of 1850
miles in 16 hours and IL minutes.
In landing in a bog which the avi-
ators mistook for solid field, the
fuselage of the machine was partly
damaged, but the flyers escaped un-
hurt.
The flight, according to Captain
Alcock, was made under difficulties,
most of the time the machine having
flown in fog and sleet with the sun,
stars and moon being obscured. AT
the outset of the flight the wireless
propeller was blown away in the
rush of wind induced by the terrific
speed and for the remainder of the
trip the wireless apparatus on the
biplane was out of commission.
First news of the successful flight
was received in a message from
Captain Alcock sent from Clifden
His landing was greeted at first with
but little exciteemnt among the in
habitants of the Irish coast, they be-
lieving the machine was one of those
engaged in scouting for the Vickers-
Vimy.
Reports made to the British ad-
miralty by Captain Alcock and
Lieutenant Brown state that the avi-
ators had plenty of reserve fuel left
| having used up only about two-thirds
of the supply they had aboard when
they started from Newfoundland.
The aviators reported that they
suffered no inconvehiences on the
trip except when they looked over
the side of the fuselage, when sleet
cut their faces. They asserted they
drank hot coffee and ale and ate
sandwiches and chocolate while in

Favorable winds were encountered
.all during the flight, they said. They
said that for an hour and half pre-
vious to sighting Eastalis land ant

had no idea where they were.

avert the threatened electrical work
ers' strike was the most engrossing
topic discussed by the American

Burleson's order will only serve to

employees would be at loggerheads

find the employees have been double

'PROTECT LIVES" SAYS BAKER

especial united PreSS Wlre.)
Washington, June 16.-The sole
purpose of the American soldiers in
crossing the border is to protect the
lives of Americans, Secretary of War
Baker declared, adding there is no
possibility of a misunderstanding
between Mexico and the United
States regarding the protection of life
on the American side.
The crossing of the Rio Grande
was effected with extreme rapidity
as soon as the order was given. With
in 10 minutes of the time the troops
were ordered over the border, there
were $500 American troops on Mex
lean soil. "t
The negro troops in the advance
crossed the international bridge
promptly at II O'Clock. The Fifth

the crossing at three fords, east of
Ell Paso, while battalion OF the
Eight-second artillery crossed the
river at ford just east OF the Ell
Paso stockyards. Five minutes be-
| fore the troop movements began two
armored motor cars crossed over the
Ell Paso-Juarez bridge.
A report current here last night
was to the effect that Villa forces
had secured two field pieces from
the American side early yesterday. 1t
was said the guns were smuggled
across the border at Zaragosa ford.
Two persons in Ell Paso were shot

CONSERVATISM IN FRANCE.

1t is said that the chamber of depu-
ties just elected in France is the most
conservative that country has ever
known since the election in 1871
which followed the outrages of the
commune. 1t would be after all al re-
markable situation, if France, long
the home of the radical, the socialist
and the revolutionist, should in this
great world crisis prove to be the
abiding place of real conservatism
and the home of constitutional liberty.
Less than ten per cent of the mem
bership of the popular house of the
r French legislative assembly are radi-
Gals. The others believe in strong
government; they made their contests
for seats in bitter denunciation of
communism and radicalism.
The French have been mercurial
people. They have lacked the conser-
vatism that has characterized the
slow and steady progress Of the Anglo
Saxon. The French in the bloody up
heaval of '93 and the years immediate
ly following, achieved in a few short
months of revolution and convulsion
what had required the Anglo-Saxon
centres to achieve in the slow but
surer process of evolution. Reaction
has followed revolution and revo-
luton has succeeded conservatism in
rapid succession in France. 1t has
beeR for years assumed that the
French Republic was lacking in stabil-
ity and that it could not survive
great domestic or international crisis.
This assumption was grossly unbound
ed. The French republic stood the Sc
verest test ever imposed upon any ma
ton; it weathered the storms of more
than four years of doubtful struggle
for life 1t energies somewhat batter
ed and bruised but infinitely stronger
than it was on August 1, 1914. 1t has
received the strongest vote of conf
dence ever accorded it.
The result of the national elections
in France is note of encouragement
to the liberty loving people of all the
earth, 1t proves that the same people
who for more than fifty months barred
their breasts to the shells and atroci-
ties of the Hun are able to set their
own house in order. 1t proves that
the electors in France are highly re-
solved that the more than million
who died heroically upon the field of
honor for France and liberty shall not
have died in vain. give lie France"

publishers sleepless night, but ques-
ton OF getting a supply at any price.
Although forced to new policy 1t
must be confessed that many discern
ing publishers have long entertained
the opinion that the special edition
craze was being carried to an extreme.
The average Sunday newspaper is en-
tirely too large. 1t would be better
for the readers and assuredly better
for the advertisers IL they were small
er In order to take care of the enor-
nous Sunday advertising newspapers
use a vast amount Of white paper to
print feature" stuff that is of exceed
ingly doubtful value. If the Sunday
advertising were scattered during the
week the advertisers would get bet.
ter results and the publishers would
make more money.
Too many afternoon papers have es.
tablished Sunday morning papers, as
though six days week was not
enough for any mortal to labor. Morn
ing papers have, in like manner, utter
disregard of the paper and labor short
age, established afternoon editions
making the situation still more acute
The repeated extra editions issued by
many papers hourly from II o'clock
in the morning until dark, are nearly
always unnecessary 1t may be that
the paper famine will be blessing in
disguise as it will force saner and
more economical methods among the
publishers of daily papers.
