CARSON CITY DAILY APPEAL, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1918 The Carson City Daily appeal PUBLISHED EVERY EVENING, EXCEPT SUNDAY, BY THE NEVADA PRINTING COMPANY Entered as Matter of the Second Class at the Postoffice at Carson City, Nevada, under Act of Congress of March 3, 1879 One year by Carrier One year by Mail TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION $12.00 9.00 Carson City Daily Appeal is the real live advertising medium of this section as evidenced by its carrying a larger amount of advertising than any paper in the city. - " NO COMPROMISE THERE CAN BE BUT ONE ISSUE; THE SETTLEMENT MUST BE FINAL. THERE CAN BE NO COMPROMISE. NO HALFWAY DECISION WOULD BE TOLERABLE. NO HALF WAY DECISION IS CONCEIVABLE. From President Wilson's Mount Vernon address. t GRASPING AT STRAWS The Republicans are grasping at straws when they endeavor to make political capital for their candidates by dubbing the gold con ference in Reno yesterday as an affair for furthering the interests of certain Democratic candidates as against those of another. The very fact that among the published list of delegates present appeared the names of more Republicans than Democrats indicates absolutely and unalterably that the conference had no political significance. Governor Boyle was not present at the meeting for the very sim pie reason that he was in another part of the state. oo AND NOW THEY PAY German junkers have supplied their people in the past with in formation summarized recently by the Hamburg Echo with the com ment. The German people are now paying for all this: The following pan-German arguments deceive themselves and others: "The Americans are bluffing and never will declare war." '"That if war is declared America is arming itself against Japan ami will not send soldiers to hurope. "That the submarine would sink the troops." "That the submarine would blockade France." "That England would be starved out by the submarine." "That Germany's firm attitude toward the United States woulc bring the neutrals to their side." And someone, somewhere, "Over Here" wrote i song. "I Di( Not Raise My Boy to Be a Soldier." But that was a long time ago ; oo WOTAN LINES AND OTHERS many will say, "The enemy has accused us of being inhuman. He is worse than inhuman.". 'We will yet Jiear plenty of squealing from the stuck Hun boar. Germany will learn that it is far more difficult to end a war than it is to start one. She also will learn that the price she must pay tor her world-murder will be far greater than she ever feared. And the price should be the biggest, for if Germany would have een victorious her price would have been the whole world. She is osing and our price will not be so great. It only will be Germany and Austria. Ta begin with Germany started this war That is enough, to say nothing of her numberless crimes in prosecuting it. She is the guilty party. , So the Allied peoples are not worrying any more with the armi stice negotiations in Marshal Foch's hands than they did when Presi dent Wilson was the target for many peace notes. And if Foch asks Metz, Strassburg and Coblentz as conditions of armistice and Germany refuses them we will take them by force. The Allied armies in the north are almost free of the sea of mud in Flanders, which has made winter fighting impossible. This means that we are able to enter into a winter campaign and enter into it with far greater resources in both manpower and munitions than Ger many can ever hope to attain. i it :n. rr i. l : n:: : lieneral UHlg, Willi r rrm-ii aiiu tt.nitin.-ciu aujiiitHi irH, is Ji cssnig forward east on lines which if Germans continue to resist will take him south of Brussels and by the old battleheld oi aterloo, only twelve miles distant from that city.

KING (Incumbent) Candidate for JUSTICE OF THE PEACE Ormsby County, Nev. The Germans are reported to be constructing a new line of de fense from Antwerp ta 'Sedan, to be known as the Wotan III line When that is broken through they may erect another Ilindenburg line or a Siegfried II line or a Kriemhild III line. Perhaps a Rhine Maiden line will mark their ultimate efforts in this direction. Thev have a genius for constructing defensive lines. But has not this become a non-essential German military indus try? The lines do not seem to hold, though endowed with all the potency of Nibelungen nomenclature. What's in a W'otan line if there is not the ability to defend it? The Allies have no Joffre lines or Joan of Arc lines or Roland or Roncesvalles intrenchments. Their lines are just military expressions, so to speak. They are where the battlefront is, and their advantage is their elasticity; they can be in stantly moved forward add are primarily offensive lines, not design ed only tor defense. 00 WHY THEY WANT HIM ii't r . t . ,tA a. cr quarter (SW54) of section twenty-four; or ue oumeasr quarter , (24), township sixteen (16) north, range twenty (20) east, M.

In this letter the president states that "you have rendered the country a genuine service in your management of this piece of legislation." Senator Thomas S. Martin, chairman of the committee on ap propriations, wrote Mr. Henderson upon his nomination for election as senator, complimenting him and saying: "You have been constant ly in your seat and have exercised every duty devolved upon you in a conscientious and efficient manner. 1 can say m all sincerity that you have been a real help and support not only to me, but to the ad ministration, lou have upheld the hands of the president and have given strength to the military arm of the government on everv measure that has been before the senate " Labor leaders have commended Senator Henderson upon the stand taken in the defeat of the Borland amendment and for his work on various bills in the senate in the interests of the workers of the nation. GEORGE BRODIGAN DEMOCRAT, FOR CHARLES L. DEADY Democratic candidate for SURVEYOR GENERAL General Election, November 5, 1918 SECRETARY OF STATE Uote for Him Vote for Him WHAT FOCH WILL DO From the Washington Herald Since President Wilson has placed further negotiations of armi stice and resultant peace in the hands of Marshal Foch it is inter esting at this time to recall a news dispatch of several weeks ago to understand what Foch will do. This dispatch reported that the whole subject of an armistice was exhaustively discussed at the recent Versailles conference, at which were present the premiers of Great Britain, I ranee and Italy and the military representatives of the Allied nations. Marshal Foch is said to have presented to the conference a min ute in which he detailed the military guarantees he considered essen tial as a condition precedent to any armistice. These involve the oc cupation by the Allied armies of Metz, Strassburg and Coblentz, the strategic keys to Germany. This minute was reported to have been indorsed by the conference. Marshal I? och also presented for future consideration of the con ference a complete scheme for securing and insuring German military impotence for the future. It is said to include the surrender of the German fleet of all descriptions and its distribution pro rata among the Allies according to their naval losses. The destruction of the Krupp and Skoda armament works in Germany and Austria was also considered, but their employment, with the other great industrial plants of these enemy nations, to make good the material and machinery losses of France and Belgium, seemed a better scheme all around, the dispatch concluded. If Marshal oeh actually did or did not recommend these min utes to the Versailles conference, it gives us the first concrete idea of what armistice Foch will dictate. We are confident that his terms will reduce tie enemy to military im potency for all time and compel unconditional surrender, but unless Germany is defeated to a greater extent than we have believed her to be she will not accept Marshal Foch's terms. Should Germany decide to deal with Marshal Foch she no doubt will parley for concessions as she did with President Wilson. The demand for Metz, Strassburg and Coblenz would make Germany balk immediately. Divide her navy among the Allies! Never, Germany would say. Destroy her armament plants or employ them to make restitution for her industrial damage to Allied territory? To this Germany would reply that the Allies are fighting a war of conquest 1 1! : 1 11 j 1 ana exierminauon ana uermany wouia use tnis condition of armi stice as propaganda to bolster up her crumbling morale.
