Against this statement they quote the Ententes' reply to Presi- dent Wilson’s note and the supple- mentary communication of Foreign Secretary Balfour. The Tageblatt misscs a clear ex- pression of the president’s views con- cerning “demands aiming at humilia- tion, dissolution, enthrallment and de- struction.” This paper regards the realization of President ‘Wilson's peace organization as little reconcil- able with the desires and hopes of the Entente statesmen, with the expecta- tion of German annexationists, The Tageblatt approves entirely President Wilson's position that thero should be no annexations without the* consent of the peoples annexed but it asserts that Russia would not be con- tent with the neutralization of the Dardanelles because it has already been expressly agreed among Entente states that Constantinople must be Russianized. The Tageblatt con- cludes byl|saying that every intelli- gent man in Germany who desires a permanent and assured peace can sub- scribe to most of President Wilson's principles. ) Should Germany Have Milwaukee?.

Y., Jan. 25.—Resi- dents of this section and various other places in the east are awaiting the ar- rival of a heavy snowfall, accom- panied by a severe cold blast, in or- der to permit the holding of the an- nual big bobsled carnival. This year’s event promises to be one of the largest ever held, as entries from all over are received. The prizes are also better than ever. In last vear's snow classic new records were made, but judging by the number of mile a minute bobs entered the marks made last season will be shattered. The carnival was planned to be held last Saturday in Januar but weath- er conditions may effect the setting of the date.

It was continued today but nothing was learned of an explana- tory nature. NOBODY LOVES TRAFFIC COP.

For a full hour they walked about examining the works of art and science exhibits inquired if it was not unusual for so many people to be present in an eve- ning. When informed it was not, he was quite surprised, as he was under the impression that something special was going on for that night to have so many come in. On being told that the museum had 54, 335 visitors from the day of its open- he was astonished. Many much lar- ger museums would be proud of such a record,” he stated. ‘When compared with museums of other cities, and taking into’ consideration that the local Museum of Natural History and Art Is not on the ground floor, a f ct \\_hich necessitates persons climbing a flight of stairs, the attendance has in truth been remarkable. Visitors at the museum Friday and Saturday numbered 881, and as the attendance has been exceptionally good during the month, Curator Schurr is in hopes that January will mark a new record for visitors. the larger FOR CLEAN ATHLETICS.

The soclalist organ rejects the attempts of other papers to reld.. partiality to the Entente in the speech. The Vossiches Zeitung is critical and non-sympathetic in attitude. It professes to see that President Wilson, in his very first words, aligns himself with Germany's.- enemies and It misses “the lightest' word of protest against the Entente plans of conquest. The National Zeitung .carefully re: frains from agreeing or disagreeing with the speech but, after summariz- mainly - it v A ing it, finds that it will djsplease the Entente if they accept its applica- tion. The Natlonal Zeitung fears that President Wilson may indulge in || a vision of a'people and a state of government according to the Amer-, ican standard and, in stubbornly ad- hering to this idea, may fail to real- ize that other conceptions exist in Furope.
