The feeling of the newspapers was
intensified when the chancellor early
in September said the government
saw no possibility of approving bill
for general equal suffrage as it came
from the Prussian lower house. The
workers unions also turned against
the chancellor, accusing the govern

food and of putting the interests of
the producing interests above those OF
the people.

possibilities of peace being brought

COPENHAGEN. January (by the
Associated Press).-Count George F..
Won Hert1ing. the former imperial
chancellor. died Saturday night at
Ruhpolding. Bavaria. He had been
i'll for six days.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1919-01-06
Sketch of His Career,

Count George f. Won Hertling was
considered the most learned man of
all the men called to the chancellor
ship of Germany since 1871 He had
won for himself scholars reputa-
ton before he entered political life,
and up to 1912, when he became Ba-
varia's minister-president, he had
combined educational and literary
work with his political activities.
Won Hertling was appointed imperial
German chancellor in October 1917.
succeeding DIR. George Michaelis. He
resigned in the fall of last year, and
the then Emperor William conferred
upon him the order of the Black
Eagle and his warm thanks for the
"self-sacrif1cing faithfulness" with
which Won Hertling had served the
country.
Won Hertling was born in August
1S43. in Darmstadt, of a well known
family. He passed through the gym
nasium or high school of his home
city, studied philosophy and history
at Munster, Munich and Berlin and
received the degree of doctor of
philosophy in 1864. Later he visited
Italy and studied the dogmatic his
tory of the Roman Church, and in
1856 became teacher of philosophy in
the University of Bonn. He was well
known as writer on Catholicism
and political sociology
Long Member Of the Reichstag.
Count Won Hertling was a member
of the reichstag continuously from
1875 to 1912. with the exception of
the period of 1890 to 1896. He be-
came the clerical party leader in
1909, after the death of Count HON.
pesch. During the chancellorship of
Count Won Buelow he intrusted Won
Hertling, whom he considered an able
and resourceful diplomat. with ne
eotiations with the Vatican. Won
Hertling also often was the semi
official intermediary between his
party and the government.
In the latter months of his occu-
pancy of the chancellorship, Won
Hertling was assailed by the So
cialists in the reichstag and the Ger
man newspapers. the socialists charg-
ing that he had entered the chancel-
lorship with the understanding that
he would speak for the whole of the
German people. but that he had gone
over to the junkers and represented
ideas that were obsolete. The press
generally attacked the chancellor as
a result of the increasing frictions
between the Berlin and Vienna gov
ernments.

Trip in Met0 Mexico

Mr.. and Mrs. W. A. Moody
and family, of Thatcher, accom-
panied by Isaac and BENZ. Blake
and families, Of Pima, left Fri
day for a camping trip in their
cars for the Burro mountains in
New Mexico. They found there
a very beautiful camping place,
which had splendid water, a de-
lightful climate and roads that
were very accessible
After spending few days
there, they drove to Silver City
and then to the beautiful little
mining town of Tyronne, where
they took in the celebration
which was given there in honor
of the Twelfth Cavalry, who
were visiting there from Colum-
bus, N. M.
A most interesting ball game
was played in the afternoon and
a dance was given on the open

Military Band furnishing the
music.
The merry campers returned
home Tuesday, after a most de-
lightful trip of five days.

WANT SPECIAL SESSION

The National Woman's Party
want Governor Campbell to call
a special session of the State legis-
lature for the purpose of ratify-
ing the amendment to the con-
stitution giving women national
suffrage.
Governor Campbell is willing to
call an extra session of the legis-
lature, provided the expense of
the session is met by the people,
and there is no doubt this expense
can be cut down materially if the
example of Hon. Joseph H. Lines,
Representative from Graham
county, is followed by other legis-
lators. Mr.. Lines is willing to
stand his own personal expense
for the extra session.
The ratification of the suffrage
amendment by three fourths of
the states this year and early in
1920, means that women will be
able to vote in the 1920 election.
1t is suggested that the
Woman's Club get busy and act
with other clubs in the State in
calling meetings and popularize
the movement for a special ses-
sion of the legislature.
