Ships Seized

NEW YORK, Sept. 24.-Twelve
American-owned steamships, aggre-
eating 10000 deadweight tons and
valued at more than $10,000,00O, the
property of German subsidiary OF
the Standard Oil company of New
Jersey, have been ordered from Ger
man ports to the Firth of Forth, for
ALLEGATION among the allied and as
sociated nations recently at war with
Germany. This information has been
received by officials of the Standard
Oil company here from its represen-
tatives abroad.
This order of ALLEGATION, it was as
serted, was made by the president OF
the allied naval armistice commission
who, it is alleged, arbitrarily over
ruled the action of the allied commits
sion at Brussels last March in its
recognition that the ships were Amer,
lean property and not subject to
seizure as German properly. The ac'
ton has been protested by the Stand.
ard Oil company through the Ameri'
can state department and the United
States shipping board.

Jugoslav soldiers, according to dis
spatch from Belgrade, received here
The dispatch adds that two Amer.

guire.
The Italian admiral, Milo, accord,
ing to the dispatch, informed the
American officer in command of the
vessels that the Italian detachment
comprised soldiers who had mutinieC
and that they were acting on their
own initiative.
A Rome dispatch says the Giornalt

dAnnunzio's supporters have advanc
ed toward Trau, Spalato and Sebenico
Nevertheless, alarming reports are
reaching peace conference circles OF
the possibility that dAnnunzio's &C
ton at Fiume may be duplicated BY
other Italian leaders at Spalato, Cat
Adriatic seaports, and that plans are
on foot by the Italians to restore King
Nicholas to the Montenegrin throne
Such action, it is said would in
evitably result in a declaration Of
war against Italy by the Jugoslavs
who are declared to be greatly irri
tated over the situation.

RECKON FROM NEW DATE.

From now on we reckon from new
date-the close of the world war,
November II, 1918. 1t used to be
April 8, 1865, the close of the Civil
war. Tho past year has been men,
orable in the history of the United
States.
1t is a history of gigantic plans
and schemes successfully executed.
Large armies, large subscriptions of
money, large crops, heroic efforts we'll
rewarded. The year 1919 will be the
year of reconstruction. Millions of
men will return to the farms, former
and new occupations. The great
world treaty of peace will be com
pleted, and we will start out on new
lines-the beginning of new era.
Great possibilities, great dangers, per-
haps. All before us. Are we prepar-
ed to live in the new day that has
dawned?

and Will welcome suggestions, com
plants and criticisms from any citi-
zen, and especially invites them from
all state officials and employees re-

1t will be recalled that in his plat
form Governor Davis made the pledge
1.-The keynote of my administration
will he an efficient government, eco
nomically administered" He con-
tended for the adoption of an execu-
tive budget, and under his leadership
Virginia has enacted what is consid-

suggestions, kicks, complaints and
criticisms in writing and he will have

WILLIAMS CHRISTMAS SERMON

Bill himself, ("with the assistance of

Herr Bills old chaplain at Berlin
was summon to Amcrongen to preach
the sermon. The Berliners refused
to let the chaplin go, so, not to be
disappointed, William preached the
sermon himself, and the supposition
is, he did so. No report of his dis

THE ROLL CALL OF THE DEAD

The year 1918 has witnessed the
death of IL larger number of citizens
of this county than has any other
year perhaps in the history of the
county, owing to the epidemic
which hns prevailed for months. 1t is
II conservative estimate to put the
number around three hundred.
The deaths were of adults chiefly,
comparatively small number being
young children or old people. The
epidemic of 30 years ago, quite sim
liar to the present one, killed many
and chiefly, old people. In many
homes i'll this county the past year
has been one of mourning and sor-
row. The epidemic is subsiding, and
with the return of spring may health
and happiness come to every home
everywhere.

THAT NEW YEARS RESOLUTION

You will make it of course, as you
ought to, and break it as you ought
not to. "No use making resolution
which you know you can't keep" says
one who has tried it. Make only good
resolutions-such as you can keep and
keep them.
Better to have loved and lost than
never to have loved at ALL" Better
to vow to be good and to do good,
and fail, than not to vow at all, not
to wish and hope and strain to be
better and live better and happier
life. No man is able to do complete
ly Gods will. The Father does not
expect it. He says it is he chat
willeth TO do his WILL" shall know,
to be willing and anxious to do the
right, and determined to try to do so,
is a great thing, even though we may
come short. So long as n man has
an inclination to be better man
and vows and promises to be, there
ia hope for him, when the point is
reached that he no longer vows and
promises hope is dead. He's done
for. Making New Years resolutions
is not joke
Make good strong one and try to
live up to it day or even an hour,
at time. You'll be n stronger and
happier man.
