REFUSE COMPROMISE

PARIS, March Is. Official in formation from Berlin today showed that the compromise reported last night as having been accepted by the Ebert government merely constituted the conditions offered, which were refused because independent social ist withdrew owing to dissatisfaction with the labor clause, while the Dem- ocrats and Majority Socialists would not hear of Gustav Noske being re- placed as minister of defense by a general.
 The attitude of many officers in the Reichswehr is declared to have en- couraged the old government, as showing that the Kapp regime is only partially supported.
 Compromise negotiations, accord ing to advices, were suspended until tomorrow
 General Merker and several off cials, understood to be representa- tives of the new government, have left Berlin for Stuttgart, seat of the Ebert government.
 Chancellor Kapp is regarded now as having lost his influence, this be- ing shown by his refraining from at tempting to form a cabinet and an nouncing he is leaving the former of ficials to carry on the work of their departments. These officials are be

WILL ORGANIZE LOCAL DEALERS
 IN MOTOR CARS

Robert E. Magner field secretary of the National Automobile Dealers association Arrived in Bisbee last night for the purpose of conferring with local automotive dealers.
 Mir. Wagner said last night, Prob lems confronting the automotive deal CTS are more numerous now than they were during the war when the war board classified the automobile as an nonessential and seriously consid- cred closing up dealers establish ments. Now that the saloon is no more the automobile seems to be the special target for freak and unjust legislation, both from a national and state standpoint. and we are organ- izing to meet this opposition along the same political lines by organiz- ing national, state. county and city autOmotive dealers associations
 Magner is not here for personal gain. MT. Magner's time and servi- ces are being furnished by the NADIA for the purpose of organizing a state dealers organization, and his mis- sion here is to urge Bisbee automo- tive dealers to affiliate with the new Arizona Automotive Dealers asso- citation, as Phoenix, Tucson. Nogales and Douglas have already done.
 One effort will be the protection of the dealers interest in cars sold on conditional bills of sale, or with chattel mortgages, when the vehicle is seized and confiscated by a U. s.

President Ebert. in a state menr to a correspondent of the Wolff Bureau. the semi ?official :iews agency, said concerning the change: "Gener- al Merker had no mandate from Us to negotiate with the Berlin insurgents.

Miss Mabel & Deschanes. popular and attractive young woman residing at No. ' Bartlett Street. Lewiston, Me, Is now an ardent champion of Tanlac, since she began using the medicine a few weeks ago.
 'I prize Tanlac above every other medicine, even that which was pre- scribed for me-" said Miss Deschanes ih relating her experience recently. T dislike publicity, but there are so many others who, no doubt, suffer as I did. feel that I ought to tell them about it.
 "I had been a great sufferer from indigestion and had been under the doctors care for six months without relief. At the time I began taking Tanlac l was on a very rigid diet and at times could not retain food of any kind. Even cold water would cause extreme nausea. I suffered from loss of appetite, severe cramping pains after eating and extreme nervousness
 Finally my condition got so bad simply had to give up and go to bed until l got relief. l was unable to go down town to do my shopping and. although had been under treatment for six months, there seemed to be no relief for me. Honestly. l don't believe would be alive now if hadn't cotton Tanlac, for I was suf- foring terribly and getting worse all the time
 "Finally my sister persuaded me to fry Tanlac improved from the very first and one bottle did me more good than the six months treatment. Why, l actually gained four pounds in weight while taking this one bottle. l have now taken four bottles and fell just like a different person and am eating just anything I want; in fact, everything seems to agree with me perfectly 1 am now able to do my shopping without becoming ia tigued in tho least and am no longer nervous like [ was.

Not withstanding the fact that the NADIA finally secured an amendment to the VolsteaG act, protecting a dealers equity in a car sold on a conditional bill of sale and caught with liquor, it is still possible for the federal government to seize and cOnfiscate a car under another statute, one pass ed in 1866.

A HARVEYIzED PEACE PLAN.
From the New York Tribune,

Colonel Harvey, having had some
success In the negative, now impru-
IDENTIFY ventures 10 take the affirm
alive. He proposes something with
respect to redeeming the pledge in
the Republican platform for au as
ISOLATION of nations for the preser-
walton OF world peace.
His proposal is that the principal
nations shall agree, before going to
war, to submit the issue to pOpu.
lar vote. This Is old and shopworn.
It was long a speciality of William
j. Bryan. Senator Borah gave the
idea a rebirth during the treaty de-
bate. Something like 1t Is embod-
led In the covenant, in the article
prescribing that members Of the
league shall not go to war until
after the expiry of six months, and
not even then until the league
makes q report
This plan ignores q potent fact
of great moment. 1t proceeds on
the assumption, on which so much
."pacifist" nonsense is based, that
one nation, acting separately, can
determine whether or not It shall
