GERMANS WOULD TRADE.
WITH MEXICO PEOPLE.
Chamber of Commerce Has Letter
From Fancy Comb Maker Asking
Asking For Material
FAvORS ANY COMBINATION
Says He Would Establish A Factory
Here If Conditions Were Favor
able For 1t.

A letter has been received by the
Mexico Chamber of Commerce from.
f. Deutsch, manufacturer of combs
and fancy ornaments for the hair in
Vein, Germany asking if raw mater
ial can be supplied him from this 10.
cality. He states that the difficulty
he has in obtaining materials at home
compels him to seek business connec-
tions with merchants of this country.
His proposition is as follows: He
works up the raw material sent him
and sends the articles back to this
country to be sold, himself partici-
pating at net proceeds from the sale.
He will place sum for surety, equal
to the amount of material sent him,
in bank to be named by the party
with whom he deals. He is to be sent
orders to be made according to spec
ifications at fixed prices, one third of
which is to be paid him in advance;
and he goes on to propose that he be
sent "victuals against his articles"
Another combination proposed by
this German manufacturer is that fac
tories under his direction be estao-
lished in suitable localities in this
country. In fact, he says that any
combination is agreeable to him.
A letter is also enclosed from VIM.
Pfister, who states that he is ready
at any time to enter into connection
with persons interested in graphrite,
kaolin, articles of the lustre branch
and salve for wounds.

WASHINGTON, D. G., Feb. 90
Rear Admiral Robert E. Peary, dis
coverer of the North Pole, died at
home here today from pernicious
anemia.
In 1907 Admiral Peary announced
having made the trip nearest to the
North pole and in 1910 announced
the discovery Of the Pole. A great
controversy arose over who really did
find the Pole first and Peary was ac-
corded the honor and an effort made
to discredit DIR. Cooks finding of it,
ePary was born in Cresson, Pa,
May 6, 1856. He was great ex-

geographical societies throughout

A meeting of the stockholders of
the Bank of Molino win be held in the
bank We'd, Feb, 25, at 10 a. M, when
it will be decided whether the bank
will be erorganized or liquidated. In
either event there is no question but
that the deposits, amounting to S34.-
900, will be paid, it is stated.
The bank has a capital stock of
$4,000 and a surplus Of $500. There
are about 40 stockholders, most all
of whom are farmers living in the i'm
mediate vicinity. The bank is now in
the hands of George W. Hobbs, state
bank examiner, representing the state
banking department.
The trouble arose out of some loans
which were made and which have
proved doubtful. 1t appears now that
they may be adjusted and that the
bank may be re-opened. No dis
honesty on the part of any of the
officers is charged, and all officials of
the bank are now working together
to place the bank on its feet again

CHAMP CLARK ILL.
Spencer Denies Former Speaker Slept
in His Silk Pajamas.

WASHINGTON, February 23.--
Representative Champ Clark is i'll Of
a cold in his rooms at Congress Hall
Hotel. The ex-Speaker has been feel
ing badly since his return from the
third District, and remained in his
room Friday.
Some persons who read in todays
papers story from st. Joseph, Mo-,
to the effect that Clark had slept in a
suit of silk pajamas left behind in the
Robideaux Hotel there by Senator
Spencer when both were campaigning
in Missouri last week, were inclined to
think Clark might have contracted his
cold in that manner, considering the
relative size of the two men. Clark
was not in a mood to be asked about 1t
last night, but Spencer said: TITS
made out of whole cloth. l never left
any pajamas at St. Joseph, therefore
if Mr.. Clark found any hanging in the
closet and used them they were some
other persons's, not mine"

WET" AID SOUGHT
FOR SENATOR REED
Fight Against Senator a Delegate To
National Democratic Convention
May be Forgotten
GOV. EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT
Boom For New Jersey Governor
Promises to be the Big Thing at
the State Convention.

JEFFERSON CITY, Feb. 24.-The
"wet" Democrats in st. Louis, headed
ky State Senator Michael Kinney and
others, have announced their intention
Of putting up fight to secure dele
gates to the Democratic national con-
vention who will vote for Governor
Edwards of New Jersey, in the event
he is a candidate for the Presidency,
or some other "wet" Democrat if Ed
wards is not in the race. 1t is sus-
pected that this is the beginning of a
hig fight in the party, and at the stats
convention to name delegates to tho
national convention it may overshadow
the promised fight to prevent Senator
Reed from being a delegate to the
national convention.
Charles M. Hay, "dry" leader in
st. Louis ,and possible Democratic
candidate for the nomination of his
party for United States senator, is at
the head Of the movement to prevent
Senator Reed from going to the ma
tional convention as an accredited
delegate from Missouri. By using
Governor Edwards as bulwark, some
kind of defense of Senator Reed may
open when the "drys" and "wets" com
mence pulling hair. If enough of an
issuec an be made in behalf of Ed
wards to draw the fire of Hay and
others from Senator Reed, it will then
be the, turn of the Reed men to help
out those who are backing the New
Jersey governor, and, later, form a
combination to beat Hay if he sticks
his head up for United States SEN
ator.

(Centralia Guard.)

A bunch Of men were here the past
week going over one of the old rail-
road surveys in North Centralia with
maps, and evidently making an es-
innate on the cost of residences and
other improvements along the line
Of survey. This line is about half
mile south of the last Santa Fe
survey and goes through some of the
residences of the north side, making
line south of the cemetery and
from one to two and a hale blocks
north Of the Alton road The men
had maps and blue prints of all the
property on the line.
This may mean that the Santa Fe
is figuring on projecting the road
through on this survey to Mexico and
it may mean that they are merely
gathering all the data possible along
the line of survey. Jim Hill once used
several gangs of surveyors along a
line of survey he did not expect to
build, but he got the information he
wanted, and the surveys and all the
data for the consolidation now pro.
posed of the Great Northern, the
Northern Pacific and the Burlington
was made years ago and before Jim
Hill died, while the proposals for
the consolidation were only made on
